I'm in favor of the timeskip

Hello friends, I wanted to take a moment to address the topic of time passage between Shadowlands and Dragonflight. There has always been some amount of time passing between expansions, though rarely has it been called out in game. We maintain an internal timeline of what year each expansion begins, and the gap between them has either been one year (as with earlier expansions) or two years (as with most of the later ones). But NPCs in the world don’t talk about how the Burning Crusade took pla…

So Steve Danuser confirmed that there is a time skip and it’s about three years. Quoting the direct lines that reveal this below:

"Shadowlands began in the year 35 after the opening of the Dark Portal, and Dragonflight will begin in the year 40.
Given that the events of Shadowlands took place over the course of two years, that leaves a few additional years that we are fast-forwarding through."

Thus it creates wiggle room on updates. Presumably throughout Shadowlands everyone left on Azeroth was dealing with the Scourge and then following Zovaal’s death, there were about three years of peace.

Depending on when the Stonemaul reclaimed their home, then Stonemaul Village could easily have become Stonemaul Fortress or something. Which I think would be pretty cool.
