Dalaran Crater is just FUN because of the flavor around it, you have the warning signs by the portal, then you get teleported into the air, and when you land there’s a dead NPC there who clearly ignored the warnings.

Considering your guild names I would think the example of Final Fantasy XiV would be more fitting.
Why not out this in turn every flight point into a teleport point. Final Fantasy does it and it does not hurt the game, makes it more fun I can go where I want to do so quickly.
You could portal to flight points you have visited at a cost or if you want the cheaper option you can fly instead.

Considering that portals were added in shattrath in bc, the time before portals lasted a little over 2 years out of 15. The game is at least 5 times larger than it was then, and people want to get around efficiently. If you want mages to be the only ones with teleports, then classic will be waiting for you.

oh…they did. Its just the board room discussion sounded NOTHING like blues nonsense deflection in here.
Hes not going to tell us what THEY talked about as they were removing our ease of access via a few portals and how that was going to help drag out game play.
The hilarious part being that IF they were capable of creating content that was ENGAGING they wouldnt have to gate anything. We’d love the game so much that we’d not only play it once, but run multiple characters thru it.
THAT is the test of a great game. Replayabilty.
When you play it all and you find yourself craving another round, you found a good game with great content.
MoP was that for me. BfA is trash by comparison. So of course they have to try to drag out my play time to keep me subbed.
Instead of doing that, however, theyre actually just ticking me off enough to consider quitting altogether.
Mission accomplished to whomever the mole is.

Do you even play the game? It’s not about how hard it is, it’s about how unnecessary it is to remove established things and making it more annoying.

No, I want to play “World of Warcraft without the added 30 minutes of daily travel time because they want to increase time logged on metric”. There is a subtle yet important difference.
There is a reason they took out a lot of the quest where you had to fly from Un’goro to Winterspring to Rachet then to Booty Bay and Eastern Plague Lands. It got tedious.

heh…exactly.
That poster keeps going on about the good old days…when the game was MUCH SMALLER and didnt have all these different land masses to travel to.
OF COURSE when its all THAT small we didnt need so many portals.
That aint the game TODAY, however.

It’s just portals people. PORTALS. This isn’t the hill to die on. The game has much bigger issues to deal with.
On a side note, I like this change. shrug Sue me.

- Lack of engaging new content
- Wasting development time to remove quality of life changes allowing users to run old content
Very diassapointed and concerned by the decisions being made this expansion.

= more time traveling…which is the point, Im sure
= more time traveled…which was the point, Im sure.
There is no defense to removing portals that we were using that didnt harm the game in any way whatsoever and had been there for YEARS.
You can keep trying to defend this nonsense, but nonsense it remains.
And irritating paying customers…yeah…not such a good idea over something you all keep claiming is so trivial.

For YOU it may not be the hill friend, but lets not pretend that THIS is the first thing theyve done to agitate the player base. Not even close.
So yeah…this might actually be the ‘last straw’ for some of us at some point.

but it is, other changes don’t ask me to spend an additional hour a day doing the same content I already do. The idea that the world should become more cumbersome to travel as it gets larger is ridiculous. A little extra travel time to go do a mog run every once in a while this doesn’t effect, I go to every continent basically daily farming rep and this change is enough to make me lose interest in the one aspect of the game that keeps me paying.

You’re whining about people having a problem you don’t feel is a problem. Why are you even here on this thread? You can ignore it…

As a side note, not its not ‘just portals’. Its TIME SPENT.
When I have to hop around for an extra 30-60 minutes a day finding portals or running down a mage, that aint just about a missing object. Its about dragging MY play time out in a way that Im not unintelligent enough to miss/figure out.
Continuing to tell us to ignore this change is really an insult to our intelligence, ya know?
we’re not missing that anymore than we’re missing that portals are being removed that didnt need to be removed and the very CLEAR reasons why they are removed.

People like you are the problem here. Anytime a legit complaint comes up that you don’t understand, and don’t agree with, you don’t take the time to understand why. No, you devolve into insults, wondering why people dislike having things suddenly taken away.
But you know what? I love this game. I’d hate to see it fail. That attitude however will be the end of it.
