    what scares me are the 500 abilities at the bottom of the UI, it look SO overwhelming

    That is why you need to learn to play the game, starting from level 1. And no rush. Read about each skill and sort them on your hot bar. Use them to get to know them :) There isnt more than 30 or so at highest level (I played several years ago, so maybe it changed), and only 10-20 are used in combat. Often only 5-10 of them on a cycle. So is isnt that bad :)

    "If you start getting attacked the tank will grab that enemy's attention, and the healer will heal you right up..." in a perfect world. Beginners (and even veteran players) need to learn to run to the tank if something gets on them and have that health potion at the ready. 😉 Both the tank and the healer might be too busy (or not experienced enough) to notice what's happening to you.

    Yes, exactly. This is my first time playing wow, not in retail but wow classic, and I keep getting shunned for being a beginner and not knowing what I am doing half the time. But there isn't a tutorial or guide. You kinda just land and are expected to know how to play. I also did not have questie at the beginning so the struggle was extra real (thankfully I figured out how to get it). Feel so outcasted cause everyone seems to have experienced the early wow, and I don't see many newbies like me.

    I love the game and I finally bought it in the $90 edition since it was 50% off a few days ago. I got 30 days game time and a lvl 60 boost. Played a Hunter up to level 50 Then used my level boost on a Demon Hunter because I really liked the class and now my DH is almost lvl 70 And then I started playing a Dracthyr. I still haven’t learned a profession on any of them because I was too scared to do it, I don’t know why. The game is very overwhelming at first and I really think u need like 2-3 months of playing to understand the basics of things, but I enjoy it :) I’m lucky that I used to play Metin2 (everyone that liked MMORPGs and was from Eastern Europe played Metin2) and a lot of games during my life so I get most of the gameplay :)

    For 1-60 just picking up quests anywhere you can will probably be best. Running dungeons can be a fun way to break it up too, and they offer good xp! Once you go to the Dragon isles you will want to follow the main quest line as that will unlock stuff to do at max level. Any character after your first will automatically have that unlocked however.

    Good video! Been playing since MoP, but I know there's a lot that I don't know. Love to see videos that explain stats, selecting gear, creating an effective rotation and Talent Tree builds. These are my weakest areas. I'm an older player, so there are aspects of gameplay that are not intuitive or coming naturally to me. Nonetheless, I love the game and find enjoyment with it. I play PVE and join in on group content, but usually PUGs and LFRs. I've been suriviving to this point because of addons such as Pawn, Hekili, and DBM, but I would like to have some real comprension. I play a Destro Warlock (Horde) and an Elemental Shaman (Ally). I also, of course, have an Evoker, and I have been trying out a Feral Druid. DPS all the way for me.

    As a long time player, I just want to say to make sure to play YOUR WAY! As you're starting off, don't worry about what the meta is or what this dude in Orgrimmar/Stormwind told you about how your talents should look like. You'll have PLENTY of time later for that. Make sure to enjoy your journey FIRST and love how your character progresses through the choices that you make. Side Note: If you get pretty far into a character and decide you want to switch up to another class, PLEASE don't be afraid to start over. Majority of the WoW community has this problem, it's called being an altohalic haha enjoy the journey guys! Best of luck out there!

Anyways, I just wanted to ask. When does the tutorial end? Because I'm currently at level 7 and I know after level 20 it's paywalled. So is level 20 when the tutorial ends? Or did it end on the boat and this is just regular play?

    Continue to quest, maybe start queueing for occasional quests, and when you hit level 60 get ready to go to the Dragon Isles. At that point the story will begin to be a lot more consistent and will lead you right into end game content like Dungeons, Raids, etc.

    Great question!! The wow token absolutely can be used to pay for game time, and I personally know many players that do! Theoretically if you had the gold at lvl 20 to buy a token you could get gametime with it, but it's worth noting that gold is much easier to make at max level, and that's how most players who pay for time with gold do so.

    The worst part about this game as a new player seems to be traveling to different continents. Its the worst... I cant tell where the portals are for the continents I need. The problem starts when the location tells us its taking us to a very specific place like thunder bluff. To expect new players to know where thunder bluff (or these specific isles) is, is ridiculous, instead of telling us something like "kalimdor; orgrimmar" they just say orgrimmar. Plus, the map is just the worst. It doesnt even tell you the names of the places a lot of the time. I remember seeing a part of the continent called something on the map when I hover over it but when i click on it it'll take me to a completely differently named location however it had the same exact outline as the other location. Its just a very very stupid system overall.

    For leveling 1-60 do whatever quests you want :) Once you go to the Dragon Isles, try to stick with the main story on your first play through. You’ll want to finish the main quest line to unlock some endgame stuff. Any character after that automatically has it unlocked, so you can do all the side quests then.
