Some (of many) changes that i would like to see in the retail ->
• Remove cross-realm and merge most of the low pop realms together (cross-realm killed server community).
• Remove raid and maybe dungeon finder, another option would be to keep lfr but make the loot blue, this way casuals get see the raid content but it doesn't ruin the rarity and feeling of getting an epic item.
• Made gearing, dungeons, professions, earning gold and quests/leveling as "hard" as it was in TBC (vanilla leveling, gearing etc was too slow).
• Went back to the vanilla/TBC talent system but kept dual spec and maybe glyphs.
• Remove flying mounts (they pretty much killed world PvP) and remove alot of the portals, if you want to travel somewhere it should force you to get out in the world, not stand in a capital and press a portal.
• Remove reforge and transmog, it took away alot of the feeling of getting new gear, i also hate not being able to see who has good/bad gear.
• Drastically lowered the dps, healing and stat numbers, TBC numbers were good.
• Implemented raid attunements again, maybe not as long/hard as they were in vanilla, but something.
• Keep 20 (or 25) man raids but go back to only having one or two raid difficulties, bosses should drop less loot as well (2-3 items).
• Add more content (like TBC) and let each expansion last longer.
