I’ve played WoW on and off for a while, but recently dove back in after igniting my interest in the story and lore beyond the aesthetics I appreciated.
Focusing on getting a newly created character through BfA and Shadowlands as the devs intended.
As far as I know, playing the expansions through with both Alliance and Horde characters provide the full story/both perspectives, so if you play only one side you aren’t getting the full picture/content.
Does the same go for all other expansions?
How does it work for expansions that introduce new races?
Would there be a benefit to playing Mysts of Pandaria or Legion for example, with an Alliance, Horde AND Pandaren/Demon Hunter character?
Do these “special” classes just have a separate starting zone and then join the Alliance/Horde storyline?
I’m planning on playing all starting zones eventually anyway, I’m just unsure how the story/content difference between Alliance and Horde is handled pre-BfA (where the split is quite dramatic as far as I can tell).
Thanks in advance for you reply:)
EDIT: With casual I mean: Not particularly interested in grinding for gear/PVP, all I’m here for is the story, the world etc.
