I think a big boon to any MMO future would be collision boxes for mobs so they can't stack up directly on top of each other and would be individual targetable, and block other mobs/players from running thru I know EQ cheeped out and lets u run thru players but w/e
wow has some good texture artists, but IDK i havent played shadowlands really to tell u how i feel, they slipped up a bit with MoP but the zone design made up for it there.
What kinda erks me the most about wow's 'level's and level design' is its cookiecutter, u been in one cave u been in them all, the king goblins throne room is the same as it was in the newbie yard.
The Freeport village or w/e in BFA with the pirates was a nice little thematic area, and so was the troll city, other then that I couldn't tell if I was in one part of wow or another. Those are the only two areas I felt were really unique.
Cataclysm had a few more unique spots, but Teldrassil 2.0 Hyjal was just like the newbie yard. It's hit ore miss, grizzly hills in that game stood out to me too.

I wouldn't know, I quit WoW mid-WOTLK, so I didn't see those zones I don't think. I thought stranglethorn and BRM were cool in design I guess. A few of the TBC zones were interesting, like the one with the big mushroom plants. I liked the first zone in TBC you start in, only because I thought the Fel Reavers stomping around killing people were one of the coolest mobs I had ever seen up to that point.
None of the WOTLK zones stick out but I quit that pretty early on. P99 has always been hard for me with no maps because I have absolutely no sense of direction. I get lost in my job just trying to find my way back to a high school's counseling office where I'm talking to a student from their nearest bathroom

I will say to this day though, the WOTLK cinematic is the absolute best video game cinematic ever made:

The fact Blizz didn't do the same style for their WoW movie is a travesty

Second best video game cinematic ever made is Blizzard's BFA one:
