You were being obnoxious.
lol, whatever man.
he wasn’t being dramatic. using the term “hostage” like that is a pretty common turn of phrase. it’s just conveying the thought that time gating gets on his nerves. ironically, your post is pretty. dramatic.

If they returned flight to being a gold sink, it would cost significantly more than that. Folks complain about the cost of things now, that would just be another log on the fire.
I’ll take Pathfinder for account-wide flight that takes no actual effort to earn anyway. I got Part 1 in 16 days, only because I missed the Tortollan emissary that was up on launch day. That was just from playing the game.
I’ll be fine with 250k price tag. Eather by farming plants or just buying 2 tokens

Why do you think ‘new’ players want a game that gives them everything ?
Isnt that the way of the young today? They don’t want to actually start at the top, but they certainly don’t want to start at the bottom either! This games curse is progression, not many will want to discover this game and stick with pounding out 120 levels just so they can be current with this demanding player community we see in WOW today.
Biggest problem today is new players haven’t the luxury we had/have with every new expansion, that being Others to play/level and group with…
Clearly many here haven’t visited OLD CONTENT… You and I know it as World of Warcraft the Solo game
At this point, it’s basically a flying-in-old-content only game.
They effectively removed flying from the game just like they wanted to IMO.

That’s your opinion and you’re entitled to it. And since I am quite sure we will never see eye to eye on this, being a vanilla stress-test beta player myself and having the same perspective, I’ll bid you a good day.
Well I agree, then again I don’t view it with a Blind Eye either
Awww. And who says altruism is dead, yeah?

I rest my case
People who can’t wait should find another game. Those players won’t stick around anyway, so trying to cater to them is completely idiotic.

There is that elitist attitude that’s made World of Warcraft as popular as it is today
You can spam that 100 times, it doesn’t make it more sensible. This is a game of progression, if people can’t handle it, this isn’t the game for them.
I play this game for progression as do other people.

Says the elitist Lvl44 alt mage that hasn’t blew thru 76 more levels of old content yet
I have three accounts and 7 120s and at least 5 others between 110 and 120 and 8 more at 110.
And you don’t even know what being elitist is.
Here’s another bit - I earned pathfinder for both WoD and Legion on two of those accounts.
At the very least they should remove some of the requirements for old expansion flying.
Limit it to
- explore continent
- finish zone stories.

Sure I do, and I also know others with nothing better to do all day and others that actually have to be productive elsewhere then a Video Game too

This is a game of progression,
But it’s not.
With needed XP reduction, all catch ups, free max level gear, this game is all about “Current season”. Everything else is abandoned. Even content of current expac, but from previous “season” is abandoned. (Uldir is just useless now, WQ give higher ilvl).
Wow Stopped being “progression” game long time ago.
The only way for someone to TRY and enjoy progression is to constantly manually lock XP each level between 90 and 100.
I would’ve agreed with you, if the game was actual progression game.
Edit : Classic will be !
I remember having to grind out gold to buy flying. I also remember playing the game and it just so happens my play style got me pathfinder without even trying. I think you’re all just being lazy and that this game isn’t for you if you can’t handle being grounded.

People who can’t wait should find another game. Those players won’t stick around anyway, so trying to cater to them is completely idiotic.
I don’t think encouraging more people to leave is a great idea, considering the game is already in decline. Or still in decline, depending on how you look at it.

Sure I do, and I also know others with nothing better to do all day and others that actually have to be productive elsewhere then a Video Game too
Implying you can’t be productive both in and out of a video game? That’s just silly.

I’ll be fine with 250k price tag. Eather by farming plants or just buying 2 tokens
I’d expect something more along the lines of 500k+ per character easily. It was always a gold sink, after all.
