WoW became popular because it was more accessible than Everquest.
Yes, you always could no-life it, but the vast majority of players were never the Southpark WoW guy.
The vast majority were always casuals, and that's what the game has moved away from which forever brings back.

We want adventure, we want community, we want polished content.
We want to make friends and socialise in an MMO.
WoW's success came from being casual, and I am glad that the casuals are getting their game back instead of catering to the 1% of people that care about world first.

It feels good to actually be hype posting about WoW again.
I get accused of being a hater or whatever, but I think the last week proves most of us aren't haters.
We're fans that want what's best for the game and endless M+, buggy slop is not what the larger community wants.

The reason Forever appeals to me but Classic didn't so much is because Forever doesn't have a rapidly approaching expiration date.
Classic always felt pointless to me because we know the entire story, progression and when it'll end - but Forever gives such a fresh take.

Another thing I interpret as a green flag for Forever on the subject of factions?
Zephras’ finale.
That was the perfect level of begrudging cooperation, left with no better options. The tension in those quests is so good, there’s no vapid moralizing.

Oh yeah and one more think @BaalTheWarlock @that_kind_oforc The talk about the Dark Trolls *living underground in Hyjal* *AGGRESSIVELY STARES AT THE HARRANIR VISIONS* YOU MEAN LIKE-THEM!!! Fucking easy ass rake to side step. But now I also think Drogbar are also Trolls.

The only recurring theme this expansion is that Black/Brown Men deserve to die in the view of Blizzard devs, for the sin of being too radical

Removing grief, loss and tragedy from the Forsaken would be like removing ruthless ambition from the blood elves. There'd be nothing left

Lor'themar makes no concessions on what his people did to the Amani, or even on his blatant racism the entire expansion (including this patch), he was already shaking Zul'jarra's hand before he saw Liadrin died!
It's such a flimsy form of development that *should* feel earned.

But to turn it suddenly into "IM SO BLINDINGLY STUPID AND DESIRE THE DEATH OF EVERYTHING RAAAAAGHH" when the point of the light for the last 20 years has been compassion, determination and only truly striking down evils when they're too far gone is... its such a ridiculous change

- type element is really dumb because it doesn't fit, its just Badly Written Shadowbringers
Like, the Light being Largely a Unilaterally "Good" force of magic that has fringe groups that use it for Evil is a good juxtaposition that invites thought about the Force itself
Pyrogar 😈 retweeted
Im gonna be honest, i think making the Light compel people to madness and blind them is already inherently stupid, while it was mostly been a force for good almost unilaterally for the past 26 years in the history of all these games it suddenly being a "All things in moderation"-

At the end of the day Midnight is basically "Someone played ff14 and saw the Light aspect being bad and shadow aspect being not evil" and decided to try and do that idea Really Badly without understanding why it worked in FF14 like at all
