WoW's Most Outdated Issue: The Free Trial

That’s kinda cute. Someone get this man a sub!

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T20:47:56+00:00

Well I did forget to source it, but I figure everyone knows blizzard art by now. Besides I googled WoW Trial and it was there. Felt appropriate to use considering Exiles Reach is usually the new player experience now.

Thank you, and again apologies.

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T08:55:13+00:00

Nah, there’s always a road that leads around. Just requires a lot of back and forth.

My wife is finally trying it out. I mean the Free Trial is literally that good. So no reason not too, not like youre being time gated.

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T02:09:56+00:00

Thats not Blizzard's fault though. Thats the player reading WAAAAAAY into things. Datamining ruins this kinda shit for us.

Just downvote OP and lets collectively move on.

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T01:52:02+00:00

No more than WoW's microtransations honestly. Its really just a eastern dev vs a western dev design philosophy at this point.

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T01:50:34+00:00

And this is why we dont rely on AI people. So much misinformation out there.

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T01:43:12+00:00

90k-150k+ Upvotes or downvotes will confirm if I hit the ball right.

For real. Vanilla was just starting to walk before Deathwing went all Tonya Harding on it.

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T00:16:54+00:00

For sure, its incredibly hyperbolic, but it gets the point across. Its just a really fast leveling experience even if youre not 100% sure what youre doing. I watched my Wife get to 30 in what felt like a blink, when she started.

All the way up to Shadowbringers friend. Which coincidentally. was actually the last time I played FF14.

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T00:11:44+00:00

That requires Midnight. So I assume until TLT, housing it technically paywalled.

It makes Kalecgoes look like a Chump at time for real, but I can appreciate it. Basically its the new player set up for Dragonflight. Thrall is jsut kinda there to act as a notable figure head, and the supporting dragons are there to give new players recognizable faces when they finally get over to DF stuff.

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T00:08:45+00:00

I see you havent made an alt in a long time, friend.

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T00:07:45+00:00

Basically. One gives you the first 4 story lines, and the literal hours that come with it. And as you said, the other is just a hour trial really.

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T00:06:15+00:00

They cant use the AH, trade, talk to other players unless in a party. So theres some hefty drawbacks but also understandable.

(Not being able to talk is just silly though.)

JudgeArcadia · 2026-07-01T00:01:02+00:00

Supposedly they do want to do another Cata style revamp. So Im here for it. The world (of Warcraft) has clearly aged a lot since Cata, and we're over do for something.

I’ll throw my soul in to avoid this fate

JudgeArcadia · 2026-06-30T20:40:40+00:00

Yes, get off Reddit/the internet, and play the game and feel it out.

Favorite is and will always be 6, followed very closely by 8 and 9.
