Something fun to think about! 😃

I had an idea! :smiley:

So… after Shadowlands. We return to our realm, all things set in place. We realize it’s time to fix up the planet. It’s broken, there’s stuff ruined all over the place, we went through wars, etc. This could introduce player housing as we build across the world for the races without homes.

  • each continent could get new towns in zones that fit the aesthetics of the races living around there, including the Broken Isles, Kul Tiras and Zandalar if they want
  • each town has an instance portal that takes you to your little plot of land for your home where the buildings match the architecture of that town
  • decorations can be drops from all levels of dungeon and raid content, with achiev ones and vendor ones and even ones that only drop in Mythic raids (like statues)
  • make the towns something we help build through quests (no time gating, just a questline)

And then, as we’re all getting settled and the world is looking rebuilt and pretty… Twilight Cultists make another appearance. Angered by the death of their Old Gods, they start assaulting different zones across Azeroth and we find ourselves in a fight with more Twilight dragons. Kalecgos makes another appearance to tell us that we are desperately needed to stop the cultists from enslaving all of the dragons left— on the legendary Dragon Isles.

  • new assaults across the world where the mages of our main cities can portal us directly to the action
  • new versions of old dungeons that the cultists turned into their experiment labs and where they enslaved creatures they twist into twilight monstrosities
  • Twilight footholds on the Dragon Isles that we have to take back and control (make them swap with the click of a flag once they’re cleared out, perhaps phased for scenario type groups and have it change to a quest hub once you personally clear it)
  • all new zones for the dragonflights and all that jazz (I haven’t thought of all the details yet for things they could do)

But wait! There’s more! :smiley:

Dragon Isles Pathfinder: hit max level, hit exalted with one of the dragonflights, run five scenarios to help each of the leaders of the dragonflights to save someone important, run another scenario to find the source of the high winds that can keep us mere mortals grounded and find out storm drakes are keeping the islands safe and hidden with those winds, then one last scenario to learn how to fly in high winds, taught by a storm drake. Now we can fly!

  • this also unlocks world quests set up in the sky on clouds or floating islands we couldn’t reach before
  • new zones that open up after this will have their own Pathfinder to learn to fly in those conditions (perhaps an underground zone similar to Deepholm, another set up in the sky on a large floating island, etc)

Thoughts? Ideas?

Shakes magic blizzard 8-ball.
Response was - they don’t care.

Just Saiyan

I didn’t post it for Blizz. I posted it for fun for people to read and have fun with. So whether they care or not is moot.

Try having some fun for once. :wink:

15k posts on these forums and you still had to special snowflake yourself with the title. Super sad.

Not sure what my post count has to do with anything… people have been using emojis to call attention to a topic for a long time. This isn’t new. LOL

ā€œSpecial snowflake?ā€ What are you even on about? LOL

Take your saltiness elsewhere if you just want to troll. :kissing_heart:

A world revamp is deffo in the works. It’d go hand-in-hand with the leveling revamp.

I’d say after Shadowlands. We come back to find everyone has been busy repopulating/repairing the place after the past 8 years of destruction.

Yuck, already getting a few silly troll posts in the first hour of this positive brainstorm thread.
I really like the idea of going back to our world and rebuilding it. Heal lands that have been affected by the Cataclysm, cure the Plaguelands, the Night Elves having another tree to live on, etc. We got all these islands, the other side of Azeroth and more to explore, civilization rising and recovering and being peaceful. All that fun stuff and I would love to have a nice home in a beautiful place somewhere in Azeroth. Finally settling down after all the chaos of war, the Legion, the Black Empire, and soon the Shadowlands realm… Man! I’m crazy now! :crazy_face:

This is a good idea for an expansion. Honestly this is nice to see changes in the world and how we interact with the world.

Big complaint for a longtime has been that WoW has been very static and not dynamic enough.

Turn some of these into dynamic events and that is something to build on. Very interesting ideas!

If Garrisons were a beta for housing, I sure as all in the spirits in helheim don’t want it.

Honestly, I don’t see the appeal.

I think there are plenty of ways to improve upon the Garrison system and make it far more appealing. One gripe I had with Garrisons was that I recall Blizzard was going to let you set up base anywhere in Draenor, like a nice base in Nagrand. But it’s restricted based on faction instead.

Uh, what in ā€œSomething fun to think about!ā€ is special snowflake whatsoever??

OP, I think these ideas are awesome :+1:

They weren’t. They were the next generation of the farm.

Thanks! That’s what I was hoping for. :blush:

Apparently adding an emoji to the title equates me to a ā€œspecial snowflakeā€ somehow. LOL :woman_shrugging:t2:

I’ve been thinking that, after Shadowlands, we’re going to return to Azeroth to find that like thousands of years have passed, and the whole world has changed (updated finally) and we may even have to resettle it.

Not to be a downer… but unless you’re at least the creative director on WoW you’ll probably have zero say in anything like this…

That wasn’t the point. Nor would I ever presume this would be seen by anyone except players. It was just to have fun and come up with ideas as a break from all the other crap going on around here. It’s fun to think up this kind of stuff. :slightly_smiling_face:

Then good job keepin’ it positive! Dream on!
