It looks well designed, it's just not my style.

#

Now, if they put that horse in WoW, I'd have probably bought the package.

tulip badger
#

man, finally

atomic sonnet
elfin steeple
#

I fell asleep. Three more hours to go? Perfect time to sleep.

elfin steeple
#

Two hours...

atomic sonnet
#

1.5!

elfin steeple
#

I'm probably getting too overhyped. Maybe I should tamper my expections a little. hmmdash

atomic sonnet
#

Probably wise rdsnrk

elfin steeple
#

Nah! I'm going all in. If I'm disappointed, it's not because of me, it's because of them.

grizzled parcel
#

Anything short of a Cataclysm-style revamp will disappoint me.

elfin steeple
#

But... but... void expansion... ppinkiesorrow

atomic sonnet
#

I don't think we're getting a revamp in this coming xpac. One after that though, higher chance

grizzled parcel
#

Void expansion would be my second choice.

atomic sonnet
#

I think the highest chance will be Avaloren - other side of the planet

#

fan made but gets the idea across ppenk

elfin steeple
#

Shows picture of the one side we all know and love

atomic sonnet
#

Well yeah, the other side has never been shown yet

elfin steeple
#

That's because there's only one side!

atomic sonnet
#

THAT'S WHY IT'S AN EXPANSION, DAVE AKLIN

elfin steeple
#

It's a conspiracy.

#

Cons....PIRACY! PIRATES!

#

PIRATE EXPANSION CONFIRMED!

atomic sonnet
#

Odyn sent forces to the other continent to tame/cull them because they were heretics, but nothing ever came back and those heretics were too powerful

#

So any mention of the other side of the world has been stripped away

elfin steeple
#

What if the other side is just... mirrored.

atomic sonnet
#

Anti-Azeroth? hmmm

elfin steeple
#

Antiroth

#

New expansion, boom. Done.

tulip badger
#

the Avaloren leaks looked pretty bland so i hope not

elfin steeple
#

I agree, but only because we haven't seen much.

atomic sonnet
#

None of those are actually confirmed and there was folks showing how it's easy to recreate the images with existing models and stuff and photoshopping

elfin steeple
#

It's hard to instill excitement over a few screenshots. ...Unless they're screenshots of a topless Jailer...

atomic sonnet
elfin steeple
#

wheeze Although that would certainly cause more buzz, I'm doubtful anyone very few would actually be happy to see him again.

#

I feel like Tali's humor has rubbed off on me a tiny bit.

#

So apologies.

atomic sonnet
#

..eez beeeeeeeg.

elfin steeple
#

The sword is a portal to the other side of the world! Why else would the circle in the middle be so bright?

atomic sonnet
#

Those avaloren leaks are thought to be really fucking good fakes, but fakes nonetheless. It's a lot of the ingame lore books and other hints in the game suggesting towards it

elfin steeple
#

Maybe the reason nothing has leaked yet is because there's nothing to leak. celestaithink

tulip badger
#

my wild card guess is theres another time travel expansion since bronze dragonflight got a lot of focus and the only time we saw the BIG BAD earth dragon was in relation to the time travel dungeon

#

We cant forget that we're basically ending Dragonflight with the main bad guy having almost no screen time

#

so he has to be very important in the next one

elfin steeple
#

Wild card implies that it would be out of the blue, so any relations to previous expansions or entities wouldn't really be that wild I'd think. No, a wild card guess would be something like Thrall becoming evil, kidnapping Jaina like she's Princess Peach and then constructing 8 castles with fake Jainas in 7/8 of them.

tulip badger
#

I used wild card because the only suggestions appearing are Avalaloren or void because there are no other bad guys to choose from

#

void I mean

elfin steeple
#

Eh, they could also just make some shit up.

#

They've certainly done it before

tulip badger
#

yes im just throwing it out there because its not a popular theory

grizzled parcel
elfin steeple
#

I hope you guys are right, I really do. I hope they don't just go in a completely different direction and forget about what they'd set up like they have before...

#

Because a lot of expansions feel like "Oh, we had setup A before... But wouldn't it be cool if we did B..."

#

Two expansions later... OH HEY GUYS! REMEMBER A?

tulip badger
#

when it comes to foreshadowing for sure but main ongoing plotlines it seems to be going a pretty natural flow

#

I think it would feel a bit soon to get void lords right after Shadowands

#

and that expansion had no other natural follow ups so they had to bring up something else

#

but mop-wod-legion-bfa was pretty natural progression

elfin steeple
#

Cata to MOP felt weird

#

and yeah bfa to shadowlands

#

but you're right

#

mop through bfa worked well

tulip badger
#

Cataclysm also had no natural follow up with Deathwing dying at the end

elfin steeple
#

yeah it just felt like an ending

#

same with wrath

#

Wrath still has one of the stronger endings in my opinion

#

But to be fair it's hard to top arthas

tulip badger
#

BFA - Shadowlands, obviously the after life came out of nowhere but it was the culmination of Sylvanas story so it made sense from that perspective

grizzled parcel
# elfin steeple Cata to MOP felt weird

MoP was a bit forced. Basically they used the Cataclysm as an excuse for why the Mists parted, and the Horde/Alliance war just migrated over there for Reasons ™️

elfin steeple
#

I remember people being so confused and mad at the start and then ending up falling in love with the expansion. rdsnrk

#

Mists was a sleeper hit

grizzled parcel
#

I adored MoP. It's still my favorite expansion ever. That said, the beginning and the end were the weakest points. The intro setup was really a headscratcher, and defaulting to "Garrosh is now your villain, go beat him up" was disappointing.

elfin steeple
#

Yeah that was very strange. I will say SoO was a pretty fun raid though at the very least!

#

Timeless Isles will always be timeless.

#

Best part

tulip badger
#

Garrosh made a lot of sense as the last boss with the whole panda thing being about controlling your bad emotions so the sha wouldnt take over

#

and he was built up as very evil and mean over the whole expansion

#

5.0 theramore bomb, 5.1 entire storyline was about him and Anduin

#

5.3 he is now racist towards the horde too

#

but it made some of the cataclysm quests where they're trying to show show his strengths as a leader kinda cringe in retrospect

grizzled parcel
#

That's just it. Cata went hard making Garrosh this honorable warrior with a mean streak, he was dedicated to protecting the Horde but not a bad guy.

Then they did a hard right & he bombs Theramore, then goes on the warpath through Pandaria, until he just nukes the palace.

tulip badger
#

but he did call Sylvanas the b word in cata (later removed because its mean) so he was always evil..

rdsnrk I think he was just saying it like it was. I mean she was B.

tulip badger
grizzled parcel
#

Man, I had such a better reason for Sylvanas to take everyone into Shadowlands before it actually launched. Blizz shoulda hired me.

elfin steeple
#

they hurt a lot of character's leading and through SL

#

to be fair

#

Poor Arthas got the alt+f4 (or more accurately the ctrl+alt+delete treatment...)

grizzled parcel
#

I read about what they did to him in Shadowlands, that was BS.

elfin steeple
#

Basically... "Best not to think about him anymore... he did bad stuff and that's that..."

tulip badger
#

that was so bad

#

If you're gonna tarnish the lich kings legacy at least make it a big spectacle not a sad little soul thing

elfin steeple
#

It hurt my soul just watching

#

They could have brought him in one last time for a fight

#

Now, would it be one where he's regretful for his actions or him not like Garrosh?

tulip badger
#

it even had foreshadowing with one of the big animated episodes before launch being about uther and arthas and then they never even had him properly in

#

At least Varian helped Anduin break MC that was good

#

And Saurfang 😹

elfin steeple
#

I didn't mind the Anduin Lich King stuff That was fine I think

#

Not really great but

grizzled parcel
#

At least let Arthas find peace, while the corruption of the Lich King was removed from his soul. Not just "lol he got deleted"

elfin steeple
#

fine

Basically what the Devs were thinking when they released that final ending to Arthas in SL: https://youtu.be/9SMnfraH4Ew?si=fs9uyf8cAtaODuB0&t=883

A complete run through of the new world of warcraft dungeon Stormstout Brewery in the Beta Mists of Pandaria, with the new loot system, all your gears item level being reduced (or raised maybe?) to item level 390, also you're not in a party any more, so you have to say everything in /say :/ oh well :p the dungeon is fun! enjoy!

atomic sonnet

Hmm

I think capture the flag is more like take item from base and bring it to yours

#

Vs X_____X_____X_____X needing to capture each point

grizzled parcel
#

CtF has always been capture the points, in my experience

atomic sonnet
#

Back and forth rather than the 5 or so on a map and whoever has most scores highest?

what'd I miss

grizzled parcel

They finally got Hero Talents into the game

elfin steeple

...What's that mean

grizzled parcel

Something they've been trying to figure out for years, basically lets you customize your spec more

elfin steeple
#

interesting

#

what's the warband thing again?

grizzled parcel
#

Releases next year

elfin steeple
#

that's what I missed

grizzled parcel

Warbands are basically a way to tie your alts together, so they share Reputation, bank, and can transfer items.

atomic sonnet

Basically what legacies do in SWTOR

grizzled parcel

So you don't have to make a custom Guild or something

the next part of WOW is in 30 min

grizzled parcel

Yeah, 4:30 EDT

elfin steeple
#

Hmm my guess on pricing for expansions: You can prepurchase the next 3 expansions for cheaper. Comes with mounts and other cosmetics around their themes.

grizzled parcel
#

Okay yeah, so Hero Talents let you pic a sub-spec for your class specialization and improve that. Example is a Moonkin Druid

elfin steeple

very cool

grizzled parcel

Hang on

#

The example for the warband

#

Level 13 Evoker?!

elfin steeple

Is he wearing... DRUID GEAR?

grizzled parcel
#

If they open up Dracthyr to other classes, I will be VERY happy

elfin steeple

So is the hero talents going to be something where you level up after max level to get more talent poitns?

That you go into the world to find

They're adding a lot of secrets in the world that you go out into the world to find, which are spells that you can learn. There will be no beta or PTR. So nobody will know ahead of time where the secrets are.

That's what they should have done instead of allied races.

Yup. A touch late for it now. THey'd have to come up with some other way of granting you the racial outfits / customizations. And don't get me started on the arguments about what racial traits to keep.

In the end the Alliance/Horde division damaged the game design a lot.

KeqingFlap_GM Should have copied EverQuest and kept things more independent way back when.

Yeah. It kinda made sense in the beginning, but it has fucked up so many systems since then.

I expect by the end of this trilogy, we'll see them eliminate the Alliance/Horde barrier.

It might just be you pick a side when creating a character, but I'd rather they just remove it completely.
