At the same time though with how HW looks and feels, flight seems like an integral part of the atmosphere and dynamics of the expansion.
I feel a bit like the whole "sky or sea based" thing the devs talked about was a joke, but at the same time, oh my god, the artists could do WONDROUS things with uncharted islands, dynamic weather, and even undersea zones. I LOVED WoW's Vashj'ir, though I know feelings about it were mixed...it had one of the most extraordinary atmospheres of any areas in any game I've ever played.
