Since 10 am.i was just talking how i miss the play on night yesterday since i play mostly on day when it happened for me today since i logged in its night.Ha.Well ty,but i hope it goes back to the real time

They did away with ā€œnightā€ ages ago… now it’s more like a slightly darker day… ( imho ofc :slight_smile: )

The sky is ā€˜black’ but its still as bright as day. I don’t know why they did that. Well i guess i do, but whats the point otherwise?

I believe it was because people that couldn’t play during daytime found it depressing… and some found it annoying being dark so they couldn’t see as well. So they removed it, might have been in the beta already?

Its only starts and black sky to me in Dornogal…

They really should have put this on a Setting in Options. I’d have it something like:

Darkness: Off, Low, Medium, High.
Cycles: 24h, 12h, 6h, 1h

I’d have it Off as I struggle when it is too dark. Thankfully I play almost exclusively in the middle of the day these day. But when I did work I had to play in the evening.
But I can see that some players would feel more immersed with day / night cycles. So having the choice would be good.

I have always wished that WoW had a faster Day/Night Cycle, so the days would actually pass as you played the game. It adds so much to a game in my opinion. I think a 6 hour cycle would work best. So 1 day IRL is 4 days in WoW.

Went back to day.All as it should be now.May be eclipse.

Yeah, I think other MMOs back in the days had faster day/night cycles, and night time was actually dark. I remember being kinda scared at night in EverQuest because it was easy to get lost in the forest and more skeletons spawned. :cold_sweat:

Gamers i think i know what happened.Yesterday i was at Ibelins commemoration…And i drinked black potion…Its probably what was stuck on me for some time…thats what made sky dark and starry

Bro probably logged in to Hallowfall

I remember when I was young during BC the night day cycle was quite awesome and immersive - after binging a whole night suddenly the in game sunrise reminding me that I should sleep one or two hours at least to go through the day :partying_face::laughing:. The weather too was cool sometimes you’d get rain outdoors and it felt special.

This thread reminded me that WoW used to have actual dark nights and actual weather effects once, and now I’m sad…

I’d actually like it as an option, or even an expansion that had that as a game feature.
Imagine areas that were literally black, apart from a flashlight you have to show you the way. It’s be interesting explorationwise.

There is a potion in game that lets you turn the world to nighttime:
