Well, BFA chose cosmetic races over classes. Not saying It worked but they chose them.

Balancing classes is a problem. True. It doesnt mean we cant get new classes. The game needs to keep evolving. I just think we should have the same number of melee and ranged classes, thatâs all.
Do you think the art department also develops new character classes? Do you think maybe a multi billion dollar company can afford to fund both these projects and have them run simultaneously if they so desire?
They couldâŚbut they didnât. I judges this based on BFA experience, no new classes, just races and transmogs.
You canât rush evolution. Nor can you really force it.
Itâs like memes. Trying to force a meme to happen will backfire or just be unfunny
I donât really understand why youâre going to bat for Blizzard.
And I donât understand why they would choose to create new classes instead of new contents. Anyway, we are not the judge here.
Why do you think a new class isnât new content? What do you mean weâre not the judges? Itâs literally only because of us this game even exists.
We are not. WoW doesnât run by Democracy here.
My favorite bad argument. This game has never been balanced. No reason to not add a new class because of it.

Dragonsworn. Mortals empowered by the dragonflights. All use mail.
Black - Tank.
Red - Disc.-type Healer
Green - Pure Healer.
Blue - Ranged Mage (maybe arcane archer-themed?).
Bronze - Melee DPS (another glaive-class?).

Actually itâs a great reason not to add anymore but the reason itâs a bad argument is that didnât stop Blizzard from adding three new classes.
We all know itâs going to happen.
Itâs an argument predicated on the flawed belief that balance is a destination, and not a journey.

Iâd rather they get their collective crap together before adding another class into the equation, as much as I want tinkers.
I donât know what happened to the talent at Blizzard. Probably moved to Dreamhaven.
This new team? Prideful, slow and talentless clowns.
What class do we even add? Theyâve added the two most necessary classes, Death Knight and Demon Hunter.
Necromancer? Thatâs just a Demo Lock with a Maldraxxus skin, or a Death Knight transmogging the Maldraxxus cloth set onto his plate armor.

Tinker? Maybe⌠but itâs also kind of already captured in both Racial and Profession flavor. People wanting another class that wears mail for some sort of symmetry is also a completely hokey reason to want an entirely new class, especially in a world with personal loot existing.
Dragonsworn? Also a maybe, but give us some good dragon scale mogs and maybe a dragonkin race and youâd probably scratch that itch. Although a Bronze Healer does sound pretty coolâŚ
Overall, none of these are like âWE NEED IT NOW!â like DK and DH were. And to be fair, we got Monk even though nobody asked for this, so Blizzard can just decide to add a class, but in terms of whether a strong need is present⌠I dunno.
Lol. Their team isnât prideful enough. They bend to the whims of the community on any issue that doesnât have a financial cost to doing so. They never stick to their guns unless it is a mandate by Activision.
Well my belief is itâs never going to happen 
For the second time in less that ten hours:
First off, there is no âweâ. The playerbase is not some hivemind, everyone on this board is an individual.
Second off, the game does not âneedâ a new class. Is the game playable without a new class? Yes. See, no need.
Third off, you do not âneedâ a new class. Can you play the game without a new class? Yes. Again, no need.
So, we are left with you want a new class and my reply is sure, why not. Itâs not like there are real problems in the game like quest-breaking bugs, phasing issues, scaling issues, ect.
Oh, waitâŚ
Other thread: We need a new class - #17 by Celebrate-whitemane
All I know is it better not be melee, if they do that.
Theyâre pretty prideful, otherwise they would have listened when everyone and their mother told them the second the system was announced that it would be a bad idea.
Gcd change still a common problem, for some unholy reason, the mission table is still in the game, fun stuff like that.
No, itâs a horrible argument. Based on that logic, we need to remove all classes until we have 1 tank, 1 healer, 1 melee, and 1 ranged spec in the game.
Class balance is no worse now than it was with only 9 classes. In fact, itâs probably better.

I actually think thatâs their thinking or their scapegoat.
Legion is easy enough if they instance a new version of a recycled class hall. Say, necromancers could reuse Acherus, bards could reuse the sewers or the Hall of the Guardian, etc.
BFA is moot because you need to be level 50 to get your Heart and then you should just go to SL anyways.
If they introduce a new class on the tail end of 9.0 as the 10.0 pre-order incentive it could get some time to be almost ready for 10.0
No, my problem is that I canât trust a new class to get the attention it needs to play well for about six months.
