Why do people think Blizzard is going to run out of lore to make new expansions.

[Raven]

It does evolve. But the WOW createx lore till now is also exhausted thats the point.

Yes it do evolve and thats the problem people have with it, lore have said one thing in the past so it can never change. old gods are the strongest, so there can never be anyone stronger.

Old gods were never said to be the strongest except by their own arrogance.

What they can CREAT if their work is completed aka a dark titan is the strongest though

[Lulbalance]

Who thinks like this? They literally create the lore, seems like nonsense that they would 'run out'.

They also said the void is the ultimate threat. The void is rampantly pushed as a themein 7.3

Killing him would send his soul out like other titans. Sargeras is NOT a demon the final is the pantheon using argus and their powers to bind him at the seat of the titans. Thats where his story ends for probably the next 10,000 years. Wows timeline wont span the next 10,000 years.

Sigh, such a pity for the likes of you who never learn. Have you played WC3? How about WoW: TBC? or WotLK?

A prisoner is no longer a prisoner once he is freed from jail. Allow Illidan to be your example. Imprisoned for 10,000 years, banished from his homelands.And yet you get to face him in TBC and learned the truth, the other side of the story. Or Nerzhul who was trapped in the Helm of Domination let loose by Arthras when he shattered the Frozen Throne? Or perhaps the Illidari or even the demons enslaved by Sargeras himself when he cleaved Mardum?

How about Kil'jaeden when he was tried being summoned in the Sunwell? It was never a story finale for them and time knows when they will be set loose and freed only to interact with you again.

You get to see the Pandaren race in Pandaria who are trapped and imprisoned in their so called protection of the mist. The Gilneans who secluded themselves in their own fortified walls allowing themselves to be prisoners so not to let loose in Azeroth their Lycantrophic curse of the Worgen. The Nighbornes and the Nagas are not much different from those I mentioned above, to save themselves they allowed themselves to be prisoners of a force that they believe could be their savior.

I believe as a forumer, the number of post doesn't reflect the true measure of a great quality of content you type. What your post entails matter more. Quality over quantity.

[Escepticus]

Answering the title: Because they are fools?

Blizzard will never run out of WoW/Warcraft lore (wich they created, surprise!), because...well, they will create more as necessary. It would be good? bad? That's another discussion.

They also said the void is the ultimate threat. The void is rampantly pushed as a themein 7.3

Tom Chilton said, in 2014, that they had ideas for six or seven expansions and that WoW would not become unprofitable for a very long time. If we consider Legion to be one of those expansions, then how could they possibly have ideas for five or six expansions if they're just going to shove all of those elements into one expansion?

Warcraft 1 - legion is less then 40 years. Sargeras will not be freed while the player character lives. Promise

Tom chilton is famous for spouting bullshit

Also do you think they would dare mention the games finale planned end date if there was one? In a p2p mmo

Doomsayers just another hint on a long list of 8.0 some mention azeroths soul under siege.

We dont kill nzoth without going to finish the fight for azeroths soul without going to the void. Thats like legion without argus.

Wrong. Because Warcraft I Human vs. Orc shows only two shades of color: black and white. The orc themselves are part of the Legion! Those green skinned orc drank the blood of a demon. You learn more about their curse,their heritage from TBC upto WoDs. the non Maghar Orcs invaded Azeroth thanks to a possessed Medhivh by Sargeras.

read wowpedia and wowwiki and try to learn more about it. Legion is no where 40 years. It's more than 25k years following Argus timeline and history in latch 7.3 you relive their experience not in a CoT instance but expect to see one in the future. Sargeras has been imprisoning demons in his creation world of Mardum let's say from an estimated ~200+/- since Ammanthul and him awaken.

[anaxie]

Cata started third horde and alliance war. War spilled into mop
Garrosh spilled into wod with legion and guldan. Legion culminated while investing every patch also into naga , nzoth, and void. Magni goes along with this. Next up is ashara nzoth and void without 13 exclusive class hall stories and having to tell the story of legion titans naga nzoth and void it van focus 100% on the last three. More then enough content and those three have had more then enough buildup in wc3, vanilla, tbc, wotlk, cata, mop, and legion

Think of naga , faceless and void the same as dreadlords eresar and corrupted titans. Vareity but all that matters is a raid for each head honcho

The warcraft 1 timeline till now aka the playable start of the franchise is minimal. It could take thousands of years if sargeras breaks out. The mmo wont span that timeframe

Ansaer this next expansion at a minimum is nzoth and azshara if they dont do void in which case its the only threT left with no hype big name behind it and no multi front threats like it would by pairing itself with its 2 other allies.

Where do we go after nzoth and azshara dies with only void left. Give me a plausible full concept that also contains 2-3 headline villans and a coherant plot.

Void expansion without azshara would be doing legion but without the titans on argus, nightmare, or any naga involvement. Pretty fuckin barren

So where do we go after next xpac. Does wo continue after azshara nzoth and void and legion and everything is gone. Give a villan or story concept and a why this would happen.

They wont end wo because money is not a retort. They have defined the end and they are actively building and pushing that end. Their actions say otherwise to ear plugged wishes

You're somewhat pathetic in how you try to manipulate my response. I was answering and correcting your 1st reply only then to self refute yourself with contradictions you further add...Hilarious indeed, I'd rather let you be.

No you just had a reading comprehension .alfunction

[Mythabay]

Bolvar expansion and returning to the exact same contient is not going to happen.

Elemental imbalance? Thats callsd Cataclysm

So Nzoth and void lords. Something that fit in one expansion. Good talk

Yeah, great talk. It's called a new continent. All they have to do is have him raid some big god damned island and voila, the Horde and Alliance can go questing there, etc.

For Elemental Imbalance, you can have a big event occur that causes it like a massive shockwave through Azeroth caused by the Void lords or some other powerful force.

So there, I think we had a FANTASTIC talk.

What island? Bolvars scourge and stronghold isin icecrown

Again cataclysm already happened.

If you consider blizzard not even being able to replace the Orc or Troll leader ingame after they kill the current ones it is not looking very good when it comes to lore building.

Orc leader became a Q&A replacement.
Trolls now wait for almost a whole exp pack.

Wait for zandalar isle and the final troll raid to kill zul likely in 8.0

Maybe rastakhan will join the horde or rohkhan takes lead. I expect Loa VolJin atleast

[Wuuzikli]

They continue to make a profit from it and thousands of people like you will buy it so how could they run out of ideas. Using a team of lore writers who have been writing these books all this time. What should is happen is a timeline of what more they could come up with like the Star Wars Trilogy. And single hero movies.

The writers in legion are writing the hints to the void aka the void and cohorts. Explain this

[zmp]

They can always recycle the lore from an alternative perspective as seen before. Perhaps there is a planet somewhere, where Arthas still exist and is the good guy?
