Hi, it's me, back at it again with a rant about the various travel systems in World of Warcraft and why it's in desperate need of a revamp:

I understand that there are a lot of factors when it comes to travel and getting around, but I really want to focus on the point that WoW has become TOO MASSIVE, and adding portal rooms/more portals is not a good bandaid to the problem.

With WoW spanning multiple continents, islands, planets(?!), and timelines, getting around is insanely confusing. I had to explain to Savjz why there are two Dalarans and he just hit me with the long sigh

The convenience of fast travel should not be tied to a singular class identity (Mage). Travel in itself should not take longer than the content you are trying to complete. (Flight master paths/pathing is still Not Good)

Let's not forget to mention other things that fall into the "but why?" category: Pocket world instances that were parts of old expansions that still do not have flight (Silvermoon, Throne of Thunder)

"LUL EASY FIX BLIZZ"; it's not an easy fix. But I do feel like the scope of travel has far outpaced what WoW has currently implemented. It's about balancing exploration with convenience and respecting a player's time.
