Blizz seems allergic to long hairstyles at time, so I hope the Dracthyr do get long hair like that fanart.

Ion mentionned we'll still be able to use the covenant because he specifically talked about how a druid couldn't use 2 different "convoke the spirit" cd. Because you get one from the convenant and one from the talent tree. He said if you use either, the cd will apply to both.

No they did not, afaik.

It's an additional key art variant by Bayard Wu, so you'll probably have to wait until either he or Blizzard release it. My guess (given how its front-facing and from the leak we know it's a square framed shot of her at slightly more than waist up) is that this one was made to be the box/cover art--her and the background version of her roaring will fit nicely in the box's ring. So you might be waiting until whenever preorders open up.
Crafting & Gathering is at its core a solo experience. To which I think it's a great idea to have crafting be their stand-in for nightmare visions & torghast. The need to encourage community interaction is paramount, but for the same reason they're never going to remove LFG & queues is because they don't want to alienate players for the times when they don't particularly want to socialize.
Also you phrase it like that was the design philosophy going into it. When in actually the WoW dev's philosophy towards the new crafting system is "make it like FFXIV." They showed a mockup in the hazelnutty interveiw that they made when began developing it & it's identical to the FFXIV crafting window.
I wonder if crafting will have rotations now and stuff? Or is it just pure UI revamp with other things added in. I kinda... liked the current/old crafting in wow. Just clicking one button. Was kinda relaxing.

Do we know what this one was referring to? Could have something to do with The Primalists

No, Teriz, you're not evil. Annoying and super persistent sometimes, but I don't think you're generally a bad person.
Black Dragons are cool and are probably one of the most interesting of the Dragonflights lore and character-wise. Liking darker elements and characters doesn't make you evil. What you say and how you behave towards others determines how you are perceived.
The black dragons were once noble protectors of Azeroth and of the races who inhabit her, led by Neltharion the Earthwarder at the height of glory and prosperity. Then came the fall and it was mighty one at that. Neltharion was corrupted and maddened, the rest of his flight followed him to their destruction. Then, when all seemed lost, Wrathion came to be thanks to Rheastrasza's meddling in Cataclysm. He's trying to bring his flight back from the precipice of extinction, to redeem them and recover their lost legacy as protectors of Azeroth. It also helps most black dragons looking fucking cool.I tend to like characters/races who had a fall, fight their dark natures and wish to reform.

Very true. I liked the Lich King, but I'm not going to deny that he was an evil fuck and that he committed atrocities. That said, liking darker/evil characters doesn't imply anything about you unless you are okay with their actions. Some of the Sylvanas stans on Twitter worry me more than a little.

I like Wrathion too. I loved Deathwing's voice, but then again I like deep voices and I'm biased towards Michael McConnohie whose Lich King voice I also loved. Gods that must have been rough on the throat. Yes, that image is perfect in its portrayal of Deathwing as this primal colossus of magma and earth whose raw power is relentlessly corrupting his form. It evokes feelings of dread in me. DW really loved killing me during Cata almost as much as the Lich King did throughout leveling in Wrath.
I hope so too.

That's my main concern. The human female model is okay, I think, but the animations are awful, and don't even really fit with WoW (human males also have some issues, but not as severe). I say that having played one for several years too. WoW has a lot of animation sets that could use updating, but none are closer to as bad as human females.

"... some wow experts being interviewed..."
"According to researchers from Wowhead..."
Its really getting odd isn't it. Sure it could and probably is just them wanting to cash in on nostalgia, but a lot of zone art looks like it would be perfect for a world revamp.

I don't think we are going to see a longer season 4.
Personally guessing 6 months of season 3, and 5.5-6 months of Season 4.
Season 3 start. March 1
Seasong 4 start. My guess is somewhere around September 20th.
Prepatch- March 7th 2023.
Dragonflight launch March 21st 2023.
I think they could create world events that award some of the rarer or at least more valuable reagents which would require player cooperation. Give everyone a reason to do them ofc.
Personally always though gathering professions should be turned secondary. Let everyone gather and adjust recipes accordingly (by requiring more mats). If you let everyone gather, you can add a lot more world content related to gathering. That way you can replace the timegating of crafting with reagent scarcity by linking them to world quests like Legion did. Then imo they should just add a lot of reagents into instanced content. Not a single type reagent but a wealth of them that match thematically specific bosses in dungeons and raids. You can gate ilvl there by making different quality levels depending on difficulty or even make it a lottery and give people a tiny chance to loot the item in LFR while making it almost certain to loot it from Mythic. Heck you can even return crafting to PvP; let us loot medals and insignias and similar items at BG completion which can be used for crafting; one of the biggest issues with the current loot system is that there is a massive barrier to entry since optimized PvP gear, even at low ilvl, is so much better for PvP than what you get in PvE.
