cynical me says we'll see "starter account are limited to vanilla content" in the very near future.

Too much time spent on F2P addon dev
In some way I'd like that, otherwise we may have a lot much content than what we have currently ...
But anyway, to know how it would really impact F2Ps (changes on limitations, and potential limitations on content) we may have to wait a long time ... because who else than us care about that kind of stuff

I don’t want too much content, imagine having all zones unlocked, all dungs, you can now loot every mob, it would be too much. I kinda hope we are limited to vanilla.

Imagine that what you've been grinding for years at lvl20 takes only weeks to complete after the scaling ... people would be pretty mad ...
But new content is definitely welcome in the f2p world ... but not too much tho

I think everyone's glossing-over a major development...
From Blizzard's official recap:
...I'm betting that this so-called "New Player Experience" will be synonymous with the "F2P Experience" going forward, and F2Ps won't actually get the new "Level in Any Zone" mechanic.
We'll probably have to wait for the "WoW Deep Dive" panel for more answers.

Well, then once again during their "What's next" panel
Kinda glad if F2P are limited to vanilla content
But what happens when you're lvl10? I'm pretty sure you'd be able to have a tiny access to the rest of the world? Such as just looting mobs from other expac who scale to lvl10.

Edit: Im also really excited about the new appearances. I was SUPER bummed that wildhammer dwarves werent the allied race. But I can be a wildhammer dwarf now!

Blizzard will have to do another stat squish and lvl squish afterwards at this pace. The current difference in HP/stats in recent xpacs has been exponential. Because of the ridiculous stat climb blizzard makes us undergo at endgame, it effects every bracket. In the start of BFA, the average HP of a 120 with regular dungeon gear and a few raid pieces was like 90-100k. Now we're at like 350k (going on 400k+ next patch). They need to change up their way of gearing, or minimize item level differences between patches. Because at this rate we'll have stat squishes every xpac. Also each xpac should be +5 levels, not 10. Nobody cares to level through zones at endgame anyway.

wonder how raids will be.. non BFA ones. will they all be available at like 40 and drop same ilvl gear?
"We’re also updating the new-player experience to showcase more of the best World of Warcraft has to offer. New players will begin their journey in a whole new level 1–10 experience. Players will then be able to level from 10–50 in Battle For Azeroth or any expansion they wish to experience from start to finish."
this shit.. is from a blue post. are you ready to get bfa dungeon socket gear on your level 10 twink? yes i said BFA

Plus all the rewards/drops that could now go epic....
But in that situation, would anyone be able to solo old raids anymore? Its a big thing for a large chunk of the population.

Aside from the 1-9 bracket being as useless as level 10s in the 19 bracket, what does this mean for those Grandfathered lvl 1 twinks, what level will they be looking at?

I certainty hope that one of the people at the q/a segment ask if what level will ftp/btp will have because, that is a lot of zones that they're unlocking for us if they go with what was said in that video.
also, might wanna ask if ftp/btp can play as a death night if it's squished at level 20 then.
