Take the dynamic grouped events of Guild Wars 2 - that's a take on world content that is expressly designed to make use of the genre.

If you were to go a little more sandbox with it, then the systems of Archeage are SUPER interesting in how they use the format. Sadly it got cash shoped right up the wazoo. Point is that when you investigate other games, WoW comes up real short in this regard.

All you've said could well be true. Out of interest, how well would GW2 world events or Archeage sandbox elements work of an add on like WQGF existed which allowed people to game the system?

Ohhhh baby now we're getting into it! That's the bloody problem yeah. They're kind of pigeon holed into not being able to do the most interesting types of persistent world gameplay because of how servers don't really matter anymore / they players to easily move.

So overall getting rid of WQGF makes it more or less likely that they could implement the kind of gameplay you'd like to see?

In isolation no, if it indicates a design direction, perhaps. My core point is that WQGF lubes up a gameloop with a lot of friction. So taking it away is going to put more focus on the content, not just the reward loop. I think this will not be enjoyable for players.

It's almost certainly a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation where they've dug a hole for themselves and have no easy way out.

I'm not sure I agree with that; after all I think world quests are an upgrade over the dailies we've had before, and I think they are more like the GW2 events than anything WoW has had before, too. And loads of people LOVE world quests ...

There will be considerably less reason to grind them in BfA with the lack of legendaries. They are early end game content, not the daily way of life they were in Legion. I think this is a very important point.

Yep! Island Expeditions are delicious, and they take much of the stress out of the WQ system insofar as Artifact Power grinding goes.
