Shadowlands Time Skip

I may be in the minority here, but I don’t like this. Not the non-answer, that’s actually pretty appropriate given it’s alpha, but the idea of a timeskip.

We’re all painfully aware of how loopy warcraft’s timeline is, and I’ll admit to being hard pressed to suggest that getting zucked into am alternate dimension / plane isn’t a fitting narrative opportunity to have one… But I just don’t like the application. It seems almost too convenient, and also frustratingly detatched and impersonal. The world is gonna go on and these sweeping changes might occur and we’re just not going to get to interact with them or experience them in a living world. It seems antithetical to the purpose of having an mmo if every time something important happens it’s already history and we don’t actually participate.

I’m just reusing my post from the alpha thread
