Next expansion needs to do the bare minimum for WoW to be a salvageable game in 2020:
1) Give classes much, much more depth and flash -
Agree
2) M+ seasonal cosmetic rewards (mounts, gear sets, pets, etc.) -
Big YES
3) Improve upon WQ and don't make them boring copy-paste of a quest I did while leveling that's basically the 2020 version of kill 10 boars -
What about new 3 in a row minigame?
4) Make guilds cross-server and improve the guild interface drastically -
Not really needed, but interface could use some visual and functional update
5) Bring back class-specific sets, or just add more sets overall -
Yeap
6) Add challenging non-raid content for solo players that gives us a reward that isn't just a higher ilvl piece (aka mage tower) -
Agree
7) Bring back master loot -
Not happening
8) Get rid of titanforging -
Not happening
9) Give us a form of player or guild housing. I'd love a system like base-building in games like Subnautica or No Man's Sky - I know wow isn't built around this and couldn't have one in every zone, but maybe sectioning off an instanced "apartment" in the major faction capital cities and allow us to get creative with different architecture, functions, layout, etc. -
Not happening
10) Get rid of mob tagging for world-bosses and rares, but keep for fodder enemies. When was the last time you actually had to join a group to kill a rare? You just zerg them down because every one gets credit, group or not -
BIG NO, hate to wait for every group to tag and kill a rare, that feature is gone and should never come back.
11) Legacy loot mode should include ALL previous expansions
12) Don't get rid of Warfronts and Islands, actually improve them and make them fun -
Agree
13) Fix professions for the love of god - make them deep, useful, and fun -
Somewhat agree
