There's been plenty of big-picture content in Midnight so far: major plot developments, new game modes, more types of Elves than you can shake a Void-Touched Battle Baton at -- but sometimes it's nice to slow way down and appreciate the tiny little details that give Azeroth its flavor and make it seem like a bustling, living world.

People have been logging on to their computers in order to cast spells at other people logged on to their own computers for over four decades.

Now that we're a few months into Midnight and we've had a chance to hit the new level cap and gear up, many players are looking to take a bit of a break from the constant onslaught of powerful enemies and spend some downtime in less dangerous regions of Azeroth.

We are truly blessed by the enormous variety of mounts in World of Warcraft, from nearly endless dragons to disembodied hands to Goblin-made mech suits to extremely good boys -- but I can't help but pine for even more types of noble steeds to ferry my characters around Azeroth.

We've got the details for what's coming next in Midnight with patch 12.0.7, and that means it's time to speculate on where we'll be adventuring for the first major content update of the expansion: patch 12.1.

Believe it or not, World of Warcraft's next installment of content is already on the radar -- we just got our first look at Midnight patch 12.0.7, and there seems to be quite a lot going on for a relatively minor update.

It's been several weeks, and we've all had time to settle into the Midnight addon environment -- have you been handling the transition with grace, or are you mashing your keyboard randomly and being repeatedly eaten by lynxes just outside of the Silvermoon gates without your meticulously crafted addon-heavy UI?

In recent interviews and public chats with the player community, Executive Producer and Vice President Holly Longdale has mentioned that she feels World of Warcraft is underutilized and could be expanded into other media.

We learned a lot about the future direction of World of Warcraft from the recent fireside chat with Executive Producer and Vice President Holly Longdale, and some of the conversation focused on accessibility and UI improvements.

On Monday, World of Warcraft Executive Producer and Vice President Holly Longdale logged onto Discord for a fireside chat with players and community members.
