I cant wait to level in 9.0. Level from 10 to 50 in WoD just collecting bonus treasures and bonus objectives is gonna be fun and I hope to god they dont nerf it.

I really think Classic affected Shadowlands a lot. I think it will be grindy, but it will be do step 1->step 2->step 3 to get to your goal, instead of "do whatever to collect AP". People seems to like it more.
Oh, they'll most likely nerf it. Whole point is to give you a choice, it wouldn't be much a choice if one path is 5x faster than others. Same with Legion/BfA invasions.
Lol, I think for most people new system is great cause they can AVOID BC/Wrath leveling. ;D
EDIT: Any news on Heritage armor for AR DKs?

Me yesterday:
Before ceremony: Hyyyype, hoping for Wrath 2.0
During cinematic: EPIC! But weird too (sick of Sylvanas, Lich King wasted).
I was still positive after cinematic. Hoping for a nice main feature. Then after gameplay trailer I was totally dissapointed, non of the shown is a main feature for me.
BUT then wow panel... and for the first time in a long time, Ion actually convinced me to be positive again. I still would have loved a BIG main feature... but what he showed and explained totally made sense and really made me looking forward to the expansion again. I was suprised myself by that. They really thought this through, some nice changes. It doesnt always have to be THE BIG ONE I guess.
So in short: I went from NAH to YAY.
I mean, we can still get big features in the Deep Dive panel.
Mythic+ and World Quests were not part of the feature trailer and were announced during Deep Dive and arguably they were part the biggest feature of Legion after Artifact Weapons.
Just woke up, still processing last night's reveals. The cinematic wowed me (even though I didn't like Bolvar getting rekt so easily), the features trailer both amazed me with the art and severely disappointed me with the lacking features list, the What's Next panel restored hope with promises of tackling some of WoW's major core issues.
But the lack of anything truly new with a "wow, I can't wait to check this out" still keeps me on the fence.
Covenants are Order Halls 2.0, only consolidated into 4 instead of one for each class. The Tower looks like an attempt to duplicate stuff like PotD, Eureka and Treasure Maps in FFXIV, building up from systems tested in Deaths of Chromie, Island Expeditions and Horrific Visions soon.
Two new abilities given by covenants aren't much. Much will depend on the promised de-pruning of the classes and the impact new legendaries will have on how a class plays.
It feels like WoD back when we didn't know it would get utterly shafted in the patches, only with a better overall theme. We'll see what happens.
I am still quite curious how each zone will differentiate itself thematically to prevent death fatigue. So far each zone seems to boil down to "Souls come here, now they don't and that is bad".
Quite reductive, sure. But expansions like Legion managed to have the zones barely touch upon the Burning Legion except for a few moments in each zone. I am a bit afraid if the Shadowlands will be able to do the same.
The world revamp dream will never die!
I think that is a fair assessment of what will happen. The devs are not complete idiots, they know that a large majority of players cannot stand Sylvanas. And that even if they changed their mind they have completely written themselves into a position where the only way out for Sylvanas is dying.
The world revamp dream will never die!
Not sure if this interview was posted yet:

"Bay & Preach Talk To | Ion Hazzikostas & Steve Aguilar | WoW SHADOWLANDS | BlizzCon 2019"
But i think its interesting.
Sooo was any of the leaks correct? Can someone link me to the "cloest to" correct one?
Leaks were bullshit. They just predicted that we will end up in Shadowlands and name of expansion. Or Blizzard just liked the name of expac and took it.
