What you need to know
- World of Warcraft is an industry-leading MMORPG, developed by Blizzard and now owned by Microsoft as part of its gaming division.
- The game is a legend, with 20-years of ceaseless operation and non-stop content updates.
- However, finding new players has been tough for the game generally, which hasn't had a refreshed levelling experience since Cataclysm back in 2010.
- New players now start off in the recent "Dragonflight" expansion, and players discovered that while levelling there, you, in fact, cannot die.
- I wondered if this was intended to try and make the game as easy as possible for new players even if it took all of the risk out of the game. World of Warcraft Game Director Ion Hazzikostas confirmed to me today that it is unintended, however, that players should be permanently immortal.
