You think at some point Night Elves will get a new starting zone since our tree was burned down?
Probably not, unless they give Forsaken a new starting zone as well

Why? The cataclysm starting zone is still there uwu
Pretty sure Exiles reach will be the default/only starting zone soon enough.

Its the default for new players if i remember, otherwise you can choose where to start

I don’t think it’s likely. We can still choose to level there, just in the past.
(Though I’m a Exiles Reach baby myself).
Guess it’s not likely that destroyed starting zones get new ones so we just time travel to when they were there and when we reach a certain level we go back to current time.
Strange lore.

To be fair current time is now further into the future than it was thanks to Chromie time. So when you choose Classic/Cataclysm or any other expansion other than BfA you are travelling back. 
It makes more sense than it was before we got it.
Night elves should salvage what wood they can from the fire and start a craft furniture business.

Yeah that is how it works and know you can pick if you’re not new. I just feel that in an expansion or two we’re going to get “Hey if you want to experience those quests do it soon because they’re going to be gone!”
There isn’t a reason not to do Exiles reach. You leave with bags, gear and a mount in 20min. They’ll see the drop in participation in the old zones and reuse them for something else. Maybe Gnomes and Trolls will actually get a major city then.
It might exactly be Exiles reach but a new all in one starting zone.

I did exiles reach and it was fun, but I hope/expect they keep the other starting zones too.
Worgen, pandaren, and some others seemed to have a decent amount of work put into them.
Northshire my favorite just because so many things are so close.
Moving on from night elf starting zone was a bit of a bugger even though it’s not a quest-gated departure like worgen and pandaren.
But exile’s reach is a nice way to go if you want a race but dislike its starting zone.
i did like exiles reach and it will help the worgen players out more
if they did not fix the lag with the worgen staring zones
It’s been 10 years. I gave up on the idea of them fixing the worgen starting experience a long time ago.
You want a new starting zone in Elwyn Forest?
I think I heard a rumor before that they wanted to work on Gilneas being a hub city. Sounds cool but I don’t think it’ll happen.
Only if they completely revamp the world again. Which they mentioned they had no plans to do.
Is that a bad thing?
Night Elves should get their new starting zone in Tirisfal Glades, and Forsaken should get their new starting zone in Teldrassil.
Apparently I am the worst night elf ever.
Pretty sure Blizz would rather just make Elwynn the new NE starting zone than design an entirely new one.
