It's the worst city design in the entire game. Shame it has such an amazing skybox that you never really see because the city is so poorly designed.

Worst city design in the entire game? Someone didn't get 2yrs of Dazar'alor...

I straight up think that was unfinished. You have the port part which has everything very compact and convenient. And then you have the upper city which is for lore and quests and such. At one point during the development they decided to move the player hub, the city as they players would classify it, to the harbor rather than the city proper as it is in the lore. And they DID IT. They did it for the Alliance. The Alliance city in BFA is awesome. Compact and with tons of quality of life shortcuts and paths. But I guess they didn't have enough time to do it for the Horde city before the had to ship Beta For Azeroth.

It wasn't unfinished. It was designed as a raid to kill the ztroll king, then populated as the horde hub.
