Why don't we have more class related content in WoW?

I swear it’s like one of the most asked for things in this game, everyone always praises Legion for the class order hall quests, and people loved the class related quests in Vanilla, too. People are constantly asking for more class themed transmog/gear, too. You’ve made some amazing class fantasy in this game, please let us actually enjoy that more!

Why doesn’t Blizzard add in more class related content? The people yearn for more RPG fantasy Blizzard! Pretty please give us more class content :pray:

Because in order to do it the first time they basically had to cut half of Warlords lol. I doubt people want half an expansion just to have some class stuff.

They could add a second campaign to the class halls that awards cosmetics.

Yeah they don’t even need to create entirely new environments. They can literally just create new questlines you get from your class order halls that revolve around the current expansion to get class themed cosmetics. That would be cool as hell, I would love that.

I sure didn’t. Because it meant I needed one of each class to get the stories and then my mogs were limited.

I know others enjoy it, but I did not.

At least it wasn’t major storyline locked behind such things, like SL was. But still.

I liked it for that reason, it motivated me to try out classes I wouldn’t normally gravitate to just to see their class order hall storyline. And it made every class I played more interesting because they had a dedicated storyline revolving around them for the expansion.

And I was the complete opposite. lol

Especially because some class halls dealt with characters I hated or their storylines were absolute crap. See: Priest.

True, but that’s why I want more class storylines so there’s a chance I don’t hate some of them and characters I do like are part of it.

Also I absolutely loved the mage and rogue class hall quests. They were super good.

Because it requires the devs to do 13x the work

I don’t play alts

I’m definitely not asking for class content.

They have given away more shaman transmogs as it is lately. So I don’t see why they would suddenly add more.

Yes. I will always be salty about remix and the dark shaman set.

Class stuff is usually 13x as much work or 1/13th as much, and many players don’t play all classes. I think it’s the same reason they changed from having so many horde and alliance lines to mostly faction agnostic lines - you can make more for every player to experience.

Agreed. This is the only reason I even have a rogue.

But the only character you plays still have a class…

It have nothing to do with play alts. You can just play the class content for the one you like.

So, having more class content is good for everyone, both who play alts or only one character.

Rogue class hall was neat lol

Lol me too actually, I made a rogue for the first time in Legion and actually played it at max level just because of the class hall quests

It’s not cost effective to make content only 1\13 players will see

Apart from it being more work for the devs, which usually has a negative reaction somewhere else. It takes longer to release content, the content isn’t as good, there isn’t as much content for any one person (unless they do play different classes), etc.

It’s the same basic concept for why there aren’t separate Horde and Alliance story lines anymore. It’s way more efficient for the devs to just make one story line that everyone plays. Less work, less time.

On one hand it’s nice when the game sends you on adventures that actually fit your character and what you’re supposed to do and to be.

It’s kinda weird to be a Warlock and fight for the Holy Light and stuff.

On the other hand, Class content means Blizzard needs to spend 13 times more time, money and resources to make content.

That’s really hard to justify.

What do people think a solution might be for Blizzard to produce class related content but in a reasonable amount of development time?

Personally I would be fine if they skimmed it down to just releasing new class hall questlines in every new patch, even if it was just for 1 class at a time.

I would not even mind this, the old class hall quests in Legion are still worth going back and doing to this day. I would not mind getting new class hall questlines, even if it was just for 1 class at a time. And like I and others said above, it would motivate me to play different classes to experience those storylines still, too.

At the cost of a decent story and character development.

Just put in the work. People loved Class Halls. All Blizzard needs to do is to make the concept evergreen so they can keep using them again.

But nah, that’s too hard. Instead, we’re dumped off on Titan Dumpster Island with zero story and zero interest.
