    That's not the point though, it's about dedicated player feedback they get during alpha/beta and choose to ignore until half a year later. This happened both in BfA and Shadowlands. That they're better with feedback later on during an expansion is nothing new.

    My friend, you are 100% right. You are also right in assuming that the same will happen again in Dragonflight. However, I’m an optimist and the only way that changes is if Blizzard outright ignores feedback again in Dragonflight during Alpha/Beta. Of course there’s a higher chance that they’ll ignore feedback based on precedent. Again, I’m agreeing with you. Unfortunately, I can’t just outright assume that’ll happen again for Dragonflight (even if history tells us it likely will).

    Now, if Blizzard does listen to feedback this testing cycle, we’re in for a treat!

    Alpha is Thursday. That’s confirmed at this point. Marla is specifically talking about the process right before Alpha/datamining that becomes available.

    It's 99% Thursday, maybe we will see blue post on Monday, maybe not, it doesn't really matter. What important is that dataminable build can drop any day (and it could be their late day/EU early morning as well).

    I would love for them to split M+ Seasons from Raid seasons. Have two M+ seasons within one Raid season. Dunno about PvP because I dont really care about it.

    I’m really interested to see how Dragonriding looks, in real-time, with everyone in the game flying around (in other words, think of how everyone looks flying on flying mounts in the sky, but now imagine our dragons doing cool tricks).

    i just hope there's plenty of secrets and hidden items or mobs you can find only with dragonriding up to places.

    Didn’t Legion Alpha start with DH access? I know there were two alpha cycles, technically, I’m just speaking in terms of firsts.

    Regardless, I really want to see Evoker, too. I have every intention to main one unless something during testing turns me completely off.

    Yessssss! Same! I really want there to be areas we physically can not access without Dragonriding and/or without increasing our Dragonriding skill to a certain point, first.

    I’m terms of US playing them, yes. I think they meant Alpha/Beta gameplay, testing, information, talents, etc.

    I only speak from my experience as a surgeon, but a very clean cloth/towel soaked in a bit of warm water should help the healing process along. I'd avoid salt water or tea bags (?) that some people suggest, just at the risk of introducing new bacteria to the area. Otherwise just take your meds and hope!

    Yeah, am on it already. Can't let anything in my way of datamining, even if it's literally in my field of view.

    That would be appetizing in the mean time.

    I honestly never thought of that. I am guessing it will look pretty cool while you're out in the world. I am just wondering if old school flying to going to forever look awkward once we've been doing DF for an entire expansion cycle.

    The very idea of regular flying is absurd when we get flying that actually looks like flying. I imagine it will be about on the same level of absurdity as doing eight year old raids as compared to current raids.
    One one hand you have something with mechanics, and on the other what is essentially godmode.

    Honestly I hope they never go back to old flying and instead just make Dragonriding more in-depth.

    So, in an interview, Ion said that M+ was originally intended to be a Legion ONLY feature. However, due to feedback and popular demand, they continued it forward in BFA, SL, DF, etc. For Dragonriding, he said that while it is meant for Dragon Isles content only, they could innovate or pull it forward into other expansions if it is received highly.

    Agreed. Kind of hoping it gets expanded to ground mounts as well.

    Like having cats that can bound and leap. Or rams that can actually mountain climb. I'm all for taking boring, old systems and finding ways to make them interesting again.
