i reckon it will be timegated least a month or two in.
Disappointing but not surprising. Allied races have always been time gated when they first come out, unlike new races that are available at the start.
Kinda bummed for a major feature of the expansion that could be time gated for weeks, hoping for the opposite!
The year is 2030, there are a huge number of races in the game, something like 50+, among them 10 people of different skin colors, 10 gnomes, 10 elves, 10 draenei, 10 orcs... What's new you ask! Nothing. The usual copying Ctrl+C Ctrl+V, for a long time, from addon to addon.
by the sounds of it its not time gated its just grindy
Not sure there's been a race/allied race that's been introduced that majority of people I've spoken to seem not to care about at all. Possibly because it's yet another dwarf.
I don't really understand people, it's new content and it's locked behind a content you have to unlock. That's what makes a game. I feel like people are tired of finishing things in the game, maybe the game is not for you anymore if you keep crying about new content being added to the NEW EXPANSION!
Most likely people will do the same quests anyways to work towards of some TWW meta achievement.
That's fine, I'll just wait for the Harronir to come out anyway :)
haha the ladies have such weak and feminine beards, i scoff at them!
This is a little frustrating if they keep the profession system timegated as they did in Dragonflight. I'd like to main an Earthen, and happy to 'grind' it out through a decent intro and story quests.Less happy though if I have to start my prof's a month behind and forever playing catch-up!
People sure love to complain. Atleast it's not locked behind reputations or renown or something like back in Legion. Just play the main story and sidequests and simply unlock it after a few weeks..
So you unlock the Earthen by... *checks notes* ...simply completing quests? In a RPG? And people are mad because of this? I mean, there really is no pleasing if this is the case, easiest Allied Race unlock ever. The rep grind to unlock every other allied race (the void elf one in particular still haunts me) was horrific, this is literally just getting people to play the story of the expansion they have paid money to play/experience. I can't abide the Earthen, I will never make one, but for those who want to this is a remarkably easy unlock and I'm sincerely happy for them.
These aren't timegated.... You unlock them by playing the game and just doing the things, however long that takes you. Just like the others. Some guy's gonna have it in a week, someone else gonna take two months.
This is fine as I'll probably never create a character with this race.
At least its only quests which are the main subject of an expansion anyway, and not grinding reputations and such, although probably most people will unlock them just to unlock them but without actually playing one
90% of people don't care about another dwarf race so it's fine
