Don’t forget, it progressively gets darker towards midnight. I was in Tanaris at 9:30 and it was quite bright out still. The reason I took these screenshots is because there was another thread similar to yours made shortly after the pre-patch launched.
The OP of this thread used a 7 year old screenshot posted on mmo-champion to “prove” that night was broken in the pre-patch…
I don’t know why some people propagate disinformation like that but it usually works. I’m glad you didn’t do that and hope you’ll do a little truth seeking!
