Some time later, the developers (for whatever reason, be it making it more "accessible" to be played at any time for example), removed the night time.
Oh sure, some areas still look slightly different at night but that's still part of the problem. Night time in WoW should be dark. We shouldn't have to look at the ground and go "It's like midday! Look how bright it is!" only to look up at a slightly dark sky with no sun.
Whatever the reason for the change, I, and a lot of others like me, enjoyed the darkening of the landscape and cities. It's not right to have them just as bright at night as they are in the daytime.
Nothing breaks immersion in a video game more than bad lighting. It's not just bad, it's obvious.
So let's let the developers know, shall we?

I really never expected to see this many people who miss the old Azerothian nights as much as I do. We are nearing a hundred signatures and seeing this grow is entirely due to the passion you all have brought to the table. Please keep the momentum moving so we can show the developers that this matters to us.

The game felt much more alive and immersive with the night feature. Some of my fondest memories of the game were exploring in the darkness, it felt spooky and mysterious which gave the game a whole other side to it.
As far as I am concerned, there is no nighttime anymore. There is so little difference. The old lightningsystem was far better and I enjoyed playing in a dark world. One night, me and my friend played too long and actually enjoyed the sunrise seen from Thunder Bluff. Bring it back!
Absolutely should come back with a slider option for those who don't like it dark. I miss having the night and I would love if they actually made torches useful.
Either bring back the original night or an option to turn it on. Or have the cycle be shortened to a few hours. That feature alone was enough for me to try out guild wars 2 instead of carrying on with wow at the time.
I would love to have darker nights again. I have really fond memories of playing when nights were actually dark. Now I just feel sad "true dark" is gone. I link this game with good memories. But when something like this changes, (along with pre-cata Azeroth) that link is gone. Please, Blizz, bring back darker nights and make me and hundreds of other players happy too.
Please bring back the dark night
Please, at least give us tthe option to turn it on.

The way it has to be. It just kill the immersion when the environment reflects light that just isn't there, as if it was glowing/emitting light itself. You immediately notice it at night and the game suddenly feels... cheap?
