NPCs in Shadowlands react to players' presence when you get close enough.
Blizzard made it so that non-player characters (also known as NPCs) in Bastion look at you (or stare into your soul) in Shadowlands when you get close.
In the first screenshot, the NPC is looking away (note the distance from the character).
In the second screenshot, I got closer and approached the Kyrian, who turned their head as they noticed my presence.
It's important to note that this does not work with every single NPC. The stewards will still mind their own business, for example.
On live servers, NPCs do not seem to have these reactions.
While we're not sure if this is exactly new, the subtle change to Kyrian NPCs adds a new layer of depth to the game. Check out the video below to see what we mean!

This week's bonus event revolves around dungeons, so don't forget to complete 4 Mythic dungeons for one Heroic Ny'alotha gear piece.
It doesn't matter whether you're currently leveling another alt or working on unlocking Allied Races on retail! It is worth noting, however, that you can get an ilvl 460 gear piece this week for completing 4 Mythic difficulty dungeons.

Orgimmar and Stormwind both received new class trainer hubs in Shadowlands due to Exile's Reach, the new 1-10 leveling experience.
Orgrimmar Updates
This building in Valley of Honor (Orgrimmar) served as the main Mag'har Orc base in Battle for Azeroth.
Mag'har Orcs have been kicked out the building in Shadowlands, and now, the area serves as a class trainer hub called the Barracks. Class trainers are surrounded by various class-themed assets, as depicted in the pictures below.
Another really minor change is the addition of the Bastion portal to the Orgrimmar Portal Room, you can find it downstairs where the Caverns of Time portal is.
Stormwind Updates
Stormwind's Command Center has become a Training Hall and now serves as a class trainer hub. Similar to the Horde counterpart, you can find all class trainer here and they are surrounded by themed objects. I remember this was an SI:7 building back when I used to play Alliance.
There is now a vendor who sells various low-level items for level 10 players who have just completed Exiles Reach.
The Stormwind Portal Room has also been updated with a portal that leads to Bastion and you can find it near the Boralus portal.
