Where the hell is the maw intro skip? I'm not leveling a single more alt till its added, WHY DID THEY ADD A SKIP TO EVERYTHING BUT THE DAMNED INTRO? its not fun after the first time, its a insufferable 40 mins long escort quest where you cant mount or get ahead in some cases (the invis part...) or else you need to start over, and the fastest run i managed with a mount and skipping dialogue/cinematics was 40 mins. It takes too damn long, its repetitive and im sick of thrall being picky about what kind of weapon he wants or taking forever to do the invis part.
For the love of god, where is the skip?
u must be busy if u dont have 40min , you spend hours to level that alt anyway :D
If you got like 20 alts that you plan to lvl for being a collector you will be looking at 800 minutes/13 hours just to get those characters through that introduction.
And I got 50 alts, from which 37 are lvl 50...
Why u ever would have more than 12 alts ? isnt 1 of each class enough , unless you run druid botfarm that "collects" stuff.

Kek. If covid pre-vaccine couldn’t get them to heavily delay the expansion (as it was but until January/February), then there is next to nothing on this earth that will make them miss a mid-August to early December 2022 launch window. Hope for 9.1 as people are memeing now (with 9.1.5 somewhere in the middle), and then 9.2 in the November to early February window. After that 9.2.5 sometime finally making the game complete before 10.0 drop of 4-6 weeks before next expansion launch.
Meanwhile, most players will be looking at games like AOC, ESO and FF that are actually launching new games/expansions. I hate to say it but World of Warcraft as a game is in shark infested waters right now. The content drought is hitting especially hard with so many other games and content coming out.
I know this is something heard 1,000 times over but mixing the content drought, with a lul expansion prior and the siphoning of Blizzard top name devs. It's not looking particularly good for the game we all love. They need to do something seriously big with 9.1 cause if it doesn't hit hard enough people are going to leave. Sure, they will come back in 7-8 months when the next patch comes out but seriously guys, my horde LFG is looking like Alliance LFG now. With more sellers than people running and barely any groups running. We can deny the truth all we want but the community is fading away.
Age of Conan has been dead since 2011, and any "competitors" to WoW from this era will be soon too.

The maw intro gives a level and a half.. even if there was a skip its faster to to hit 60 to do the intro
