"there is no flight whistle and getting to a WQ and then to the next is such a chore that it will not be worth doing for a lot of people." They removed it cause of the Covenant Transport stuff. Honestly, if you're that lazy to just go from 1 area to the next, then WoW ain't for you.

Yeah, there is a LOT of choice in SL. The only things that kinda suck rn are:
1. The Maw being kinda empty (May get filled more throughout the Expansion)
2. Covenant Abilities and their Balancing (But, considering I'm Ret and Venthyr's lookin' nice, I'm good. Wanna do some Dark Souls shit. High chance they'll nerf Ardenweald anyway lol).
And 3. Class Design. For example: Ret is amazing in PVE (Especially with the Venthyr/Necrolord abilities, and maybe the Night Fae one? (Night Fae could be good for providing buffs to healers and tanks in raids). Kyrian kinda sucks despite it being fun), but it's still absolutely dogshit in PVP thanks to no Mobility, 1 CC move, etc (Savix made a video about it).
Also hope PVP scaling gets BTFO'd, but that's just me. Glad PVP Vendors are back though.
