I'm really interested in the artifact weapons and their story behind them. for example how the ashbringer comes to us (yeah i don't want to be spoilerd :D)

[Tyronatk 0]

I can't wait to test all of the new class changes to see what is viable for RBGs, look at all the new spell animations learn the new class changes.

 

I'm mainly a healer and really looking forward to play some Mistweaver in PvP!

I mostly look forward to how the lore will evolve, finally going into the Nightmare, fighting the Legion as so on, also who the last boss of the expac will be. 

In terms of gameplay, I'm interested in how they will handle the new CM system to balance it with raiding as it should be its endgame counterpart to lower groups of people.

 

Artifacts are a little bit fan service but it will be interesting to uncover the way they will get rid of them when moving into the next expansion.

My bags are most looking forward to getting some space and the wardrobe feature. Personally I am very much looking forward to the return of class quests artifact chains.

Of course none of it will be any good compared to the glorious vanilla days which I can remember with perfect clarity. Even the 6man UBRS run my guild did when I was very drunk one night and where my warlocks attempts at providing cc mostly resulted in feared mobs pulling the next two packs.

I have been playing WoW for quite a long time, and I am truly disapointed by WoD expansion, spend most of my time doing PvP with my main Mage and my alt Rogue, big fan of RBGs and 3v3 arenas, my favorite memory from WoW would be the time we won WSG after losing 2/0 and me getting "save the day" achievment. When it comes to legion i hope they will make PvP more fun and more challenging, they really did bad with WoD and legion is defenetly the last straw for salvation for blizzard, so far it looks very promising and i have high hopes for it

A lot of people with just 1 post.. so am I. 

 

I'm looking forward to Legion because it reminds me of The Burning Crusade expac, which was my first.

We had this little guild with friends and tried to level up together. It took ages. We started when the expac was released and hit 70 when Black Temple was open.

Still, we managed to go heroics, eventually Kharazan and Hyjal, cleared the content step by step and kept playing. After a while everyone left the game.

 

Now, what I'm looking forward to is that everyone of my friends from the past will be back with Legion.

We'll make a guild again, we'll try raiding, in our own paste.

 

I wish I could login to the alpha and test out what class to play... 

[Nachtuil 0]

I'm realy exited for the new zones and leveling system, I realy want to see how everyting works. I'm also cursious for the changes that have been made to the excisting classes, and of course DEMON HUNTERS, who can't be exited for that one! :D

At this very moment WoW is in a critical state. There are fewer players than ever before as shown by the latest subscriber numbers that they had to announce and the decision to not release any further numbers that followed the message of a 5 million player loss since the start of the expansion.

 

It can't be denied that a game which loses 50% of its playerbase in the first few months of an expansion is in a bad state. There is not a lot of fresh and repeatable content thats fun (at least for me). So all I and most of the players I know, have to do is clear mythic one day a week and then do either alt raids or go play a different game.

 

The benefit that blizzard has is that their games quality is usually really good. Thus I happen to be playing diablo, hots or hearthstone more or less frequently but in all of those games you are missing the social & mmo aspect which is kind of sad but thats not what these games where designed for.

 

This role should be fulfilled by WoW which, at least in this expansion, it doesn't.

 

There are several issues with WoW just one of them being the ridiculously long times between expansions or content patches. The closer to an end of an expansion we come the more it feels that WoW is in a state of abandonement. No more content patches, no fluid transition to another addon. This didn't happen in Wotlk. There we got at least a small raid in the ruby sanctum to keep us busy for a few weeks. Why not have more of these smaller dungeons and a diversity in raids you visit.

 

At the moment we have just hfc as a relevant raid, sometimes a switch in atmosphere achieves more than having a single raid that you can do. Therefore I hope that we might get a few more small raids like Gruul's lair or Obsidian Sanctum. And I also wish for the developers to not abandon the game and leave it in the exact same state for 1.5 years. Especcially with this little of content there is just nothing that will keep the playerbase.

 

For many a player Legion will be WoWs last chance for redemption. If Legion turns out like a disaster similar to WoD, the World of Warcraft could have opened its doors for one last time with no more expansions on the horizon because the subscriber numbers are going to drop even below the 3 million mark.

 

However at the moment Legion doesnt look like a bad expansion. We will have to see if there is more content in the pipe or if we will just get a base expansion and then wait for an eternity to get another patch that can be called a patch.

 

As for now I am cautiously hyped about Legion.

 

We do get a new class in the demon hunter.

 

The artwork looks fantastic for all of the new zones and also most bossfights seem to be interesting though there are a few weaker ones.

 

I hope that WoW will feel more like an MMO again come Legion. 3

 

It's the first expansion where you will have only one weapon so thats an interesting choice which has worked out in other games like Blade and Soul.

 

What I dislike is that we are labeled as some super hero who has to save the world and therefore needs the most powerful of weapon. In that regard I find it most questionable that we, the heroes that the world needs to fend of the burning legion, will be sent on quests / missions to collect 10 pieces of dirt or go hunt a deer and bring back its meat. Now either the local population is to unable to use a rifle themselves to hunt a deer (in which case we should let the burning legion do its job) or the quests simply dont make sense.

We, the almighty heroes, seem to have nothing better to do than to help some dude collect a few pieces of meat which he could have perfectly gone out and gotten himself when you see the weapons he wears. But hey I guess saving the world comes after getting some stranger a bit of meat for his lunch.

 

I'd rather have blizz go back to the theme where we are adventurers and aid the local population and thereby happen to stumble into some action regarding whatever they can come up with.

 

But maybe after Legion we will return to this theme or Legion turns out to be the exact right way for the MMO to go. I am looking forward to it and wish it to turn out well. It's not the playerbase that is at fault for the state of the game as there is plenty of feedback out there and readily available it just seems like the devs are too busy experimenting on things that are hit or miss instead of listening and tailoring the game to the playerbase. The playerbase is very critical about the content but that is because we are used to Blizzard style games. Games with very high quality.

 

So my question is: is WoW worth to still have the Blizzard stamp in the future?

[Armoracia 0]

i can't wait to experience new zones and zone scaling.

Well, well, well... 5 years Icy Veins, congratulations to all the persons involved 

 

I'm realy hope and dream with the fact that Legion will be a great expansion, where all people, in more or less measure, will enjoy a game such as World of Warcraft.

 

Personally what attracts me to play the expansion is the remodeling class system they are doing, keeping the DK blood in my crosshair.

 

Something that has me excited are the artifact weapons, hopefully it will be a success mechanism that can remember as a fantastic period of WoW.

 

And finally, with a subject that I always like to comment on ... the band bosses. Looking forward, for me, Ulduar and Icecrown Citadel where the best band of all the expansions, with their mechanical, game modes and definitely a great difficulty. Hopefully Blizzard will strive to make attractive new bosses.

 

PD: Sorry for my english :)

Honestly, I'm looking forward to the new focus on 5 mans, WoD really missed the mark on them for the majority of the games time. So looking forward to getting back into some fun and interesting 5 mans and the new Challenge mode (which after getting gold had little reason to return) 

[Muray2661 1]

Legion has a lot of new features that i'm looking at, starting from the new artifact weapons that it seems to be a really cool thing, to the new PvP system that remind me a lot of Vanilla's system which is my favourite system ever. I'm looking forward for the professions changes because i really love how them are structured in WoW and i hope they make them count once again. I'm excited for the lore, i really want to know what happens to guldan and i'm looking for the full story about Illidan (even if i wont play DH).

 

Said that i really want to thanks Icy Veins and all the people around it for the greater work they did in this years and all the help you give us with you guide.

[ZeroZer0 0]

My favourite wow moment was this year when me and my best friend got my younger brother and his friends (all 15) into wow, we did RFC as a 5 man severely under levelled for it and after many tries we completed it. Made me feel so proud that I got my brother hooked on wow. As to that I am looking forward to the emerald dream instance, as well as being able to use the shards of frostmourne on my DK :D

 

p.s Happy Birthday Icy Veins! 

[Spaghettei 0]

Looking forward to the raids, class overhaul and the awesome story!

 

By the looks of it, i'm going to dust off my warlock and start playing him again! The lore/story is also something I'm really looking forward to with all the emerald nightmare stuff going on as an example. And the raids look absolutely fantastic!

[Awhz 0]

I want to play DH since 8 years :) !!! I can't wait ! Thank's Icy !

[Linis 0]

Been playing since tbc. I really enjoyed mop, and my biggest moment was the night my guild took down Garrosh Hellscream on mythic.

In Legion i'm looking forward to the new raids and the new demon hunter class.

[abana 1]

Very excited for the pvp and prestige system. Also excited for the new raids and obviously demon hunters.

[Jubiles 0]

Hello, thank you for the great opportunity to win betta key.

I am really exited to play the deamonhunter :) I really enjoy to level up new characters and this will be so great for me, because it will be all new. My favourite part from the game and from the past is the great friends I've made and that we play together, also I play with my husband and its fun fun fun. I remember the great times we had raiding icecrown citadel back in the day, it was great :) good luck to everyone and to me :)

Heya everyone, i started about 6 years aggo with my gf.

the fact i am telling this is because i mis the old days but dont regret the fact everything changed. thats why i would love to play in legion an demon hunter ofcourse because of the skills and for me the demon hunter is like an demon lock with the tanking abbility :D i would love to test this out :D i hope we will see allot of people that are going to enjoy this class. and i wish everyone allot of fun in legion.

[Shadli 0]

What I am looking forward to are the class changes and the challenge modes. I am almost excited when there are new things to learn and to find out and the challenge modes seem really challenging and rewarding for players who invest time in analyzing the dungeon and perfecting their strategies.

[zyroh 0]

Main reason i want to get into it is because it's obviously wow and legion is looking set to become amazing. And im a huge PvP fan and i wish i could get in and try the new system with prestige and i heard there is no conquest which in my opinion sounds promising, and really everything i would want to try from pvp to walking around in the new zones and even checking out if the slightest change in the grass has changed.

[Brobow 0]

Gnome hunter!!!! and the transmog changes

[trogvar 0]

I am waiting for class halls and class quest (including the artifact ones). I was playing paladin in Vanilla and really enjoyed all the class quests there, especially one to get charger. I think Blizzard should promote more class uniqueness and it makes more interesting to play different classes without getting bored.

Another feature which i am waiting is wardrobe tab. I am really obsessed with transmog and collecting lots of old sets, recolored items and already run out of space. This new feature is a very big quality of live improvement.
