If you're wondering why the changes like being WOTLK Gold able to move more freely across Covenants and the elimination of Conduit Energy took so long even though they were long-standingly criticised by many fans, Hazzikostas said it came in the beginning with the desire to make semi-permanent selections like the World of Warcraft Classic talent trees. He acknowledges that the changes to the systems should have been made earlier, given there were positives for more permanent choices became shorter as players felt more and more constrained by Shadowlands' system during the time following the launch of the expansion.
"It's the patterns we've been taught to think in and accustomed to thinking about," he said. "Working at World of Warcraft this long is a recipe for what looks like stubbornness on an outsider, and I get that and I recognize that this can be frustrating. It's taken us some time before we came around to understand that when we create friction, people will try to figure out a way around it. By definition friction is not fun. You're dealing with some issue that's irritating and making you slow, so what's the reason we're doing this? Let's allow people to move from something they like to something they like without hurdles.'"

Hazzikostas recognizes that there is more work to be done. Perhaps that's why Blizzard recently announced that it would not be hosting its 2022 BlizzCon event by putting the time and resources which are normally used in putting on the annual event instead being put towards supporting Blizzard's various development teams as the studio tries to reevaluate what BlizzCon will mean in buy WOW WOTLK Classic Gold the light of everything that's happened over the last few months.
