New Player Experience Sucks! - Impending Expansion Problems

[Wynn_Storm]

OP is actually a WoW refugee and is also the supposed friend they're speaking of. They really should change their first post given they admitted this themselves and it makes their point quite misleading. That isn't to say their opinion isn't valid, but it's a bit disingenuous to try to appear to be concerned over a friend's gaming experience when it's actually just about yourself.

There is a few things i find wrong with your post. You make it sound like being a previous WoW player is a bad thing. The title of wow refugee just sounds bad, and especially in the context you used it. Also sure they lied about it being for a friend, but i don't think that really makes it disingenuous, the problem is still the same whether it be for the OP or if it really was for the friend. Don't you think that the reason the OP lied is so they wouldn't get ridiculed? That just shows the fear of players being afraid to speak their minds, because they know its an unpopular opinion and they will get trashed for it.

Regardless, the MSQ is a problem, even though a lot of people on here don't think it is. But the forums is a tiny minority of the playerbase, so i wouldn't take it too seriously honestly.

People are not thinking about the game in the long run of things. In two expansions from now, we are still going to be making new players go through 10 year old super dated content that obviously shows its age?

And when i sit in novice network and i see sprouts complain about MSQ or people that ask when can they play DRK or AST, i have to tell them in 500 quests or so.

The fact that people can unironically argue that its a good thing is just beyond me.

I'm personally done with this topic, as people are just going back and forth and its been going on for almost 4 days.

Tl;Dr trim all the BS quests from ARR.
