What is the long term goal of Octo's developers?

Hi,

I really appreciate all the work and new features such as the 25 quest log expansion and bringing back all the Turtle features and raids. That said, I wonder what the long term idea is for the development team. Are you going to add:

-new races (ogre and furbolg were talked about for years on Turtle for instance and both had full animation sets made for them);
-new zones (Ghostlands was often mentioned all the way back to 2021, Outlands also mentioned);
-new dungeons/raids;
-new major quests or other additions?

It would be nice with some clarity here - to know whether the team plans on only restoring and bringing back some nice features with solid smaller improvements VS. a more ambitious expansion plan with major additions like the ones (and others) mentioned above.

I know about the roadmap, but if you look at that, it reads more as Turtle phases, not as any Octo specific content. That's actually the perfect illustration of why we need clarity regarding Octo devs' own ideas in addition to the vanilla+turtle roadmap.
