You are now part of WoW's Game Design team:

  • Grant flight to players that complete the original X.0 part of the storyline at cap, guaranteed to complete within the first 30 days of xpac launch. Flight for previous expansions is retroactively, immediately granted on expac launch day.

  • Bring back Badges of Justice/Valor, behaving exactly how the current PvP gearing works.

  • Significantly increase loot drops for dungeons and raids.

  • Remove Fortified/Tyrannical from M+2 - M+9, if not completely from M+.

  • Ensure that two-expansions-ago content is trivial again (massive buffs to old raids/dungeons).

  • Re-engage the class communities on what is and isn’t working, and provide direct communication/feedback on why you’re (not) changing something. Be accountable for the gameplay people have invested 15+ years into.

  • Move more things into Account Wide achievements, and offer players the choice of (not) re-doing content on alts. Want to do the Night Fae covenant campaign for a third time? Great! Here you go. Did it once and want to skip to the end on this alt? Great, you’re all done.

  • Add more variety for each armor class’s transmog. Not every leather robe has to look druidy or monky; we’re past that. Mix it up a bit more.

  • Open up race/class combinations; all combinations can be retconned. BE Paladins aren’t “paladins”, they’re “blood knights”. Great. Let’s make some undead “Necroshifters” (druids) that rearrange bones, mechagnomes making the Transformers noise when they turn into a metal wolf, etc. Let those of us that still play this game have some fun with the lore.

I’m sure I have 100 more, but I’ll stop for now.
