Players beg Blizzard to lower Sunwell's volume in World of Warcraft

Midnight is the first time players have had a real reason to return to the elven city of Silvermoon since it was released in 2007. Many players, including me, find the expanded version to be a beautiful update to an iconic location in Azeroth. The expansion pits the Void against the Light, and Blizzard has made that clash impossible to miss: a beam of golden light shooting into a dark sky can be seen across the eastern continent and heard throughout the surrounding areas.

"SORRY I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER THE ROAR OF THE SUNWELL," one Reddit user wrote, while another noted, "The NPC's stopped saying 'Remember the Sunwell,' because no one's forgetting that jet-engine-well any time soon." Some players discovered the Sunwell's crackling energy is an ambient sound you can turn off in audio settings, but that option removes much of Silvermoon's atmosphere.

Azeroth, Silvermoon
