I've been asking about this for years...
Why not just make everyone happy? I know that some people don't care, but for me and for many others, it really does matter.

Eh...Why would you need something like this? WoW isnt played like boring FPS nowadays.
They'll just fuck you with the boss room in Naglfar-Helya manner. Forget it.
Field of vision increases the horizontal viewscape as if you're looking through a fisheye lens. It'll show you more of what is to the left and right of your character, essentially. With the appropriate FoV and a curved screen, you can kind of feel like the sides of the screen are part of your peripheral vision, which can help you get more "Into" the game. It can also change the sensation of distance, depending on how crazily you crank it.
Here's an example of a FPS FoV alteration, just to give you some idea of how much more it crams into your screen.
When you are accustomed to privilege, equality feels like injustice.
Today's standard is like 70, but it should be 90. In WoW, it looks like 60-70. If Blizzard just implements an option for us that is sensitive to this stuff, we could just raise it to 90 and be happy. And then you other peasants can play with your 60 FoV
And btw... Blizzard is making really nice skyboxes lately (e.g the one on Argus with the epic view of the planet Azeroth) and it's a shame you most of the time have to zoom in below your feet and look up to take in the atmosphere. With a higher FoV, you would more likely be able to look straight ahead and take in more of your surroundings and the skybox even more. WoW would look better than ever before.

Is that you, TotalBiscuit? Are you playing WoW again?
If there was a FoV slider everyone had to put it on max to not have a disadvantage. Like everyone gimping himself who is not playing on max zoom.
As ultra wide monitors are more and more common nowadays, it would only be wise to implement such a simple yet handy feature into WoW. Imho, every good pc game should have a 90-120 FOW slider in their options.
they will never do this they don't even like letting us zoom the camera out
