Anyone gets tired of the level 50 main story quest? Is this a recurring thread?

Is there really nothing wrong with having over 100 quests to do before new players can have access to heavensward? Which contains 3 classes that they might have bought the game to play in the first place? Most of which are filler fetch quests? Can you really think of nothing wrong with that kind of game design?

Which is why they really should make that batch of content optional. If you're at the right level, you should be able to pick up with the next big arc (and even return to do stuff like the 2.x series at your own pace later should you choose).

If a player can't handle it, then they shouldn't be forced to do it, but the devs shouldn't have to remove content from the game for the sake of those that don't care about it in the first place.

Look at story pacing of Legion for example

WoW has never been good at story pacing.

They drop new characters in with barely any setup, go for the big dramatic set pieces with little leadin, have hilariously truncated "dramatic" dialogue more often than not, and cap it off with some well made cinematics that don't even feature your character. The times where they've had better story pacing elements they've been criticized for having those "take too long" (and we're talking about a dialogue exchange between characters take more than 20 seconds).

I'd rather we avoid their pacing if we can help it.

Most of which are filler fetch quests?

I keep seeing this claim, and yet after repeatedly asking someone to point out exactly where this majority of filler exists (we have access to the quest names, so it's not hard to point to them, or the ranges between one quest and another that are this supposed filler) I've yet to see anyone do anything other than make the claim that most of it is filler.

So I'll ask again - where is all this filler, and can you defend it as filler and not just important parts of the story that you didn't find interesting?
