i like playing alts. i like it a lot, because i am bored of my „main“ class after a few months.
that said:
this leads to a mindset, where you wanna get alts relatively fast rdy, to raid (at least) heroic (or first few mythic bosses) on a somewhat competitive level. in older xpacs this was possible. but in newer xpacs, with essences, ap and whatever, not so.
the fact that this is the case and i can switch my main not relatively fast, is HEAVILY driving me away of the game.
i am the same oppinion as op. once done with a character, it should be account wide. i have no fun in grinding shit a thousand times again. i have fun playing the contents (raids and dungeons or even pvp) of the game.
if you have one main and for the rest of your life, or at least xpac, just playing this char, well then you are fine and new xpacs are made for you.
if you are like me, you have not that much fun in wow these days.
