Hello WOW devs and community,
I am new to WOW, I was referred to this game by few of my friends who play on EU server horde mostly, I wanted to play with them so when I first created a char, I liked Alliance races, so I asked them if faction matters, and they told me it doesn’t.
So, I created a human race and started doing some quests, and in the middle of questing I do dungeon finder.
sadly, all my ques were finding only alliance players, my general chat is dead, and all cities are empty, dungeon finder takes a really long time to find a group, so I would say faction really matters a lot, because the game feels dead for a new player, I had to switch to horde and the cities are feeling alive with people running around talking to you trying to offer you some gear, chat is alive 25k horde to 700 alliance server.
So please can we really merge things for new players epically chat and dungeon finder is a huge problem but cities too feeling empty is awful.
I am forced to play a race that I don’t like animation wise and looks, I know I can easily choose another server where alliance are more, but that beats the purpose of saying faction doesn’t matter.
I hope this reaches the Dev team, because I really liked the gameplay but, I started to feel the issues, that might face a new player especially as an MMO there should be players around to play with, or to talk to go to major cities together, as an alliance I can’t even save a flight location in a horde area can I ?
