Only in Franco-Spanglish.

I read quest text the first time through, but skip on subsequent playthroughs.

Please don’t introduce more talking heads if the “no’s” win out. At least not without an in-game option to disable them. They are super annoying.

Normally no I don’t

But now with the Voiceover addon I’m finally knowing 99% of the story. It’s made me more immersed with the game :slight_smile:

Depends if I’m interested in the story. I always read titan related quests

First time though - yes. After that not so much.

It really depends. When a new Xpac drops and everything is new and fresh I try to immerse myself that way by reading the quest.

But when I am leveling an alt and doing the quest for the umpteenth time, no I do not.

This is an MMORPG. Story and quest text are important. Let’s not find an excuse to remove the RPG part, please. Polls like this scare me.

if its a “collect this” or a “kill this many” quest then no. if its a story based objective then yes.

I hope the takeaway from are either or both of:

  • All quests are voiced
  • Blizz allows AI addons so we can at the very least just generate voices for quests ourselves

Allow players to choose how they consume the content - text or voiced.

Dragonflight is the first expansion that I didn’t read the quest text through the main story. I just skimmed through most of it to see what the objective was.

I haven’t cared about the story of WoW since Wrath so I don’t bother reading any of the quests and from what I gather just seeing people talk about what they have seen I’m glad I don’t waste my time reading them.

Scary question.

I do read them, especially the 1st time even though I chose the “What was the question?” because I thought it was funny.

I do. Because I want to fully understand the story.

For the More Major Storylines, yes. For the “Wanted Sign” or “Go kill X pigs quests” … no.

17

First play through, yes.
After that, nope. Unless someone points out that the quest has some bad grammar and I need a laugh.

18

I read it to get the gist but i don’t scrutinize.

19

Shadowlands was the 1st time I’ve done that. I don’t do it always though as I usually like the smaller, side quest line stories.

Yar, I read quest text.

It’s how I have found spelling/grammar errors in past betas before lol.

… Do I need to mention that I think Arthas would have liked to read quest text? Especially the ones that led to him becoming a puff of powder, Blizzard.
