I'd like it if our dragonsworn start out looking like normal playable races, then manifest more and more drakonid features as we level, slowly becoming bulkier. Would look horrifying on goblins and the like, though, if they got taller as a result.
It became clear that it wasn’t realistic to try to get the audience back to being more hardcore, as it had been in the past. -- Tom Chilton
Just because someone pointed out the comparison to the Chromie Time selection UI and the covenant selection UI against that five draginflights one, both the official ones have a way to close out of it without selecting anything. This supposed dragonflight selection gives you no way to back out and do anything else before choosing. Ignoring everything else about how fake and unprofessional it looks, that is a red flag to me for something a fake leaker wouldn't have thought important enough to include but obviously actually matters.

You can always hope it is just a flood of souls being released from the maw with no Sylvanas in sight
The standards for this is still different from an official AAA game to what is essentially a fan-made game.
And balance is one thing. It's the long stretches where maybe one class gets almost completely ignored, maybe just getting a few token hotfixes.
Imagine for instance if you had Legion, but only half the classes actually got order halls, and only a select few got unique weapons.
The world revamp dream will never die!
Yeah, sounds awful. Besides the red's are probably the most boring flight right next to the black dragons, which are pretty much just quintessential fantasy dragons where someone forgot to change the template even a tiny bit. I doubt healing fire is enough to carry a whole class.
You are welcome, Metzen. I hope you won't fuck up my underground expansion idea.

Every additional class (or even spec) means that any spec or class specific content added requires more work. Since Legion we had evolving systems all of which add some class or spec specific variance in every patch. The more you broaden it, the more you need to make. With tier sets back each class requires more art as well.
The fact that Teldrassil or nelves are missing from the text leak is pretty damning against it.
To be honest, i'd rather the next expansion doesn't have a big bad and we're just kinda running around as a sort of hero's vacation.
You know, squashing some upstart evil cults before they really get started, exploring old ruins because they're there, stuff like that. Nothing serious, just us putzing around because hey, we're the strongest people in the world, try and stop us.
Given how a lot of people freaked out about how "no central big bad" for MoP (which was a dumb reaction), I doubt we'll ever go back to that sort of thing. Though that is a pity, as it would let some things percolate, story wise.
It's too late to go back tbh, they have replicated manyaspects of MoP since it left, 8.3 was one of the things, as was 8.2, espeically Mechagon
Frankly it won't be enough, and they'd get heavy criticism by just repeating it - at this stage they'd likely just wait for it to roll back with WoW classic.
Ooooh, 5 claw packs to show off? Maybe 5 available races? Goblin, Gnome, Mechagnome, Vulperia… Dwarf? Just a few more days!!
