this wont matter as much as people think it does if the dragon riding system is amazing then you can either fly or dragon ride i dont see the big deal but ya dragon riding is gonna have to be amazing.
I don’t know why but I feel some of the dragon riding stuff won’t make it to live, it all sounds amazing but I’m getting dance studio vibes.
It’s ok fellow Dragon Riders, it’s more use for Net Guns now .
I think they could possibly develop this new dragon riding over the course of expansion, make it outperform regular flying ( I would be in favor of it being gradually faster than 310% we have now ) and adapt it to other mounts as well, while still keeping the option to fly the old way. So we would end up with this new flying system implemented outside DF ( which sounds very fun and immersive to me ) and we could also just switch between the prefered style of flying. The afk flying and hovering has its merits, I can see that. So an on/off switch button seems like a solution to me.I get people complaining about something they don't like or are afraid of, because it is new, it is part of human nature. But why not offer some solution too?
this is a matter that no one will care about in the next coming days or even when the xpac release, I mean we afked flying on flightpath, did anyone complain then so who cares fly the way you want, I for one will fly my regular mount but that doesn't mean I will not be doing the dragon mount when I can do both on my main while on my herbalist alt I'll just use my Skygolem so I can swoop n herb when the time comes.
That article saying dragonriding will replace flying didn't age well
I don't trust blizzard to provide 'full fledged' flying in a 'later' patch it needs to be there at launch, they have plenty of time to put it in. They want to force people to learn dragon flying when in fact it should be a personal choice not a mechanism forced on people. Sure most people will pick it up, but they should not be forced to learn it to progress in the game. Simply put for me I won't buy dragonflight until the 'later' update has been released. Blizzard if you want my money put player mounts in the game at launch not at some undetermined date in the future, in the meantime my subscription WILL lapse, up to you guys, do your job right and actually listen to players rather than paying lipservice to your so called new ethos and if people aren't working with players really in mind move them out of the way of developers and designers that will. Yes I know TLDR, but Blizz neef to get thid expansion right at launch and not take several updates to do things that should have been there at launch.
Glad to have flight back for real, My druids love flight form very much.
No. Just, no. Dragonflight should keep flying restricted to dragon riding. It ruins the experience for players getting in after 1 patch, I hope they reconsider
