He shared how at the beginning that were the beginning of World of Warcraft WOTLK Gold , few players had alt characters, as well as almost none of the achievements were made account-wide. There was a firm assumption on the developer's side that players should be involved in their character, which meant that every aspect of the game was made on a character basis. Nowadays, however Hazzikostas stated that the majority of players have on average two or three characters that they frequently play.
“I believe we've at times adhered too much to these tradition, a lot of which were instilled in us by our former bosses, many of whom were the founders and managers of the team–of the importance of investing in your character and the character as the lens through which you view your world” Hazzikostas said. “Increasingly, what we've been hearing from players is that you know I see the world from my perspective as a human being sitting at the cheap WOW WOTLK Classic Gold keyboard. I've completed this questline which I thoroughly enjoyed initially, but I don't want to do this questline again, and when you force me to do it, it makes me not feel like playing the character even once.”
That's where patch 9.1.5's several alt-focused updates come in. Players will now be able to skip the expansion's introductory questline after having already completed it on a different character. Additionally, players who have reached maximum renown with a Covenant will be able to freely change Covenants between other characters. Additionally, players will have the ability to level up while in the expansion's roguelite and dungeons, Torghast.
“Whereas before we were approaching most of our decisions using character as our base point, and then sometimes making accounts-wide-wide unlocks in cases of cosmetics or achievements and such I'm beginning to think that in the present we're asking with regard to each reward, every piece of content: is it something that lasts for many playthroughs?” he said. “Is this something that will feel significantly different on a different character?”
