This question was asked on our forums and it\'s a question many people have answered, mostly saying the same thing - Yes.

The increase to levelling speed from levels 20-60 has reduced the grind dramatically, resulting in more and more players dusting off their alts to take up the challenge of reaching level 70 once again.

Before the recent implementation of patch 2.3, I (like many) hit a "wall" at around level 40. There seemed to be a lack of activities and quests that I was able to solo. Once you get in that rut, it\'s hard to motivate yourself to play on. But many first time players of WoW hit that wall, and simply stopped playing.

Will this change mean we will see people returning in droves? I think it might. And, as pointed out in the forum thread, this is certainly a good tactic by Blizzard. With the next expansion on the horizon, a faster way to level and experience the new content is surely tempting. It means that anyone buying WoW for the first time now will reach level 60 sooner and easier than before, therefore more likely to buy TBC and WotLK.

However, there must be some of you that don\'t agree that this was a good move. What about the skill of players, won\'t it be less than it was before? Will we see players who don\'t know their characters as well as they should, due to the shorter levelling time?
