Does wow-forever aim to be the chill way to play the game or they just market it as a fresh start?

Spoiler:flairPTR: PTR / Beta

Playing wow is synonimous with stress,anxiety and burnout for me, chat is flooded with boosting ads and worst of human nature, guilds are sometimes fun but they just never last.

The way they market wow-forever confuses me, is it supposed a truly different way to play or its just vanilla with extras?

don’t get me wrong, cut content restored, zones being added and expanded, its huge, the question is if this will bring me back for a few weeks or a month till I explore all the new stuff or make me stick around for good cause its not aimed for the “sweaty” side of the playerbase.

For example if wow token is added that will assasinate the chill factor for good, every drop will suddenly have real life value. I know forms of boosting for rl money would happen either way, but I feel like wow token encourages an infinitely more competitive approach to every aspect of the game than just some shady sites offering boosts and gold.

I don’t have any hopes for it beyond a few weeks of fun so no need for any pessimism beyond that, my own is more than enough, I’d rather be proven wrong
