This is how I feel too. I always thought I hated caves because you couldn’t fly in them. Turns out that’s not all it is for me.
If they want to go further in, they could do more like Hallowfall and go full-on Dyson sphere.
If I spend time in a fantasy universe, I want to see the sun and the grass, and feel the wind. At least 80% of the time I want it to be that. Or it can be darker, like Drusvar. I loved Drustvar. But the cave thing, eh, it gets old.
I think it’s because we’re NOT outside irl. If you plup us into a fantasy universe where we’re still inside, inside of our real selves which are also inside, it creates a sort of hypercube cabin fever.
Now I like Azj-Kahet. It’s beautiful and it has the right feel. But I can’t be there all the time. It gets old.

I didn’t think I’d like the underground themed expansion that much, but I think they crushed it. It’s like Journey to the Center of the Earth on crack.
Azj-Kahet is WoW’s Underdark and I love it.
Ringing Deeps feels like Wailing Caverns but even BIGGER. I love it.
Hallowfall is Hallowfall. I freaking love Hallowfall. My god. They have giant flower trees and AIRSHIPS.
For an expansion that has a bunch of underground zones, I sure find myself forgetting that fact and often. It feels VERY open, and way less claustrophobic than Zaralek was. I didn’t think I’d like it, but damn. I’m here for it now.

Completely disagree. Hallowfall is one of, if not the best zones they’ve ever made.
“Please make the upcoming 11.1 zone anything but another cave”
I’ve got some bad news for you.
outrageous. a goblin player complaining about their home being a zone.

Dude, Undermine’s something I’ve wondered about for YEARS and the fact we’re getting Tokyo drifting shows me EXACTLY what the tone will be.
Goblins are some of the best parts of WoW and I’m hyped as hell for the next season. Like I mention the GW2 beetle races and how crazy fun they are often on these forums, and this feels like it’ll be WoW’s take on that.
MFing Undermine. I might just get the year long sub now just for that and I’m not kidding.

I 100% agree that outer zones in general are better than underground zones.
But I’m sorry, Hallowfall and Azj-Kahet are top tier zones. Yes, the “ceiling” can be annoying at times, but I feel like the artists popped off on them. Hallowfall is gorgeous, Azj-Kahet is very well inspired and thematic (love the architecture).
And now the Undermine zone looks incredible … at least from the preview. I’ll reserve judgement until i actually see it.
