Found out on Reddit that you could play the new starting zone of the pre-patch before the expansion is released without needing an active subscription so decided to give it a try and see what was new. I liked the update in animations, other than that didn't notice much else that was different.
Hear today that they officially announced the release of the Shadowlands expansion now, November 23rd.
Going to try get most things I'm working on atm done before that so I can take a few days to stream/record some focused gameplay and leveling of the new zones and see what's up at max level which now apparently is 60 again.
Anyway, hope you enjoy the gameplay, let me know if my new mic of the new headset sounds different. Although fair warning if you've not watched my videos before I've heard my voice takes some getting used to til you know wtf I'm saying if even then.
