Blizzard Trademarks "Warlords of Draenor" - WoW Expansion

For some reason I really think this one isnt fake. If anything, I think the dark below was trade marked to throw everyone off for a little bit. If that's true, well played

Old Outland will probably still exist during the leveling experience. This time travel can be used to explain the whole leveling experience. They can just come out and tell you that you are moving through time when you go to Outland, and then Northrend. We no longer have to question how come when we go to Northrend its like going back in time.

Just because it says Draenor in the title doesnt mean it's actually set ON Draenor.... Just means theres some connection to Draenor... like the Burning Legion, and because of their influence over the Orcs at one point and time, they could be considered "Warlords"...

I like the idea/story that could come from this, but the name is just, not good at all in my opinion.

Still, I'm kinda disappointed that Dark Below won't be... unless it's a section of the game or a raid... That storyline has so much potential

Ooh don't you worry. I have 3GB worth of screenshots from my old TBC days.
But I still love to just hang out in these zones.

Especially Telredor:

I gave a fuck... Or at least before they kinda butchered him.

Deathwing was awesome in the books. In WoW he was... simply not there.
Idiotic move by Blizzard.

Lichking was too present and always got his balls kicked (Or rather his underlings). Blizzard got Flak for that. Out of fear of repeating that mistake they made Deathwing almost nonexistent.

Draenor was the name of the planet that is now Outlands. The Orcs were originally from Draenor, but they never gave it a name--the Draenei (which means Exiled Ones) named the planet after they fled Argus. A return to Draenor basically means an Outlands revamp\expansion. I imagine they will update the pre-existing zones and add new zones via the portals scattered throughout Outlands.

That wouldn't happen. It would destroy the entire timeline. The Orcs had to be corrupted so they could come to Azeroth, then lose the Second War and Thrall reunify them and lead them to Kalimdor to prevent the Legion from draining all the power from Nordrassil.

Yeah, I do think that there was interesting story behind DW, but Blizz decided that dumb dragon is what they want to go with so ... derp. Draenor ... what's that.

Why not just call it return of dark legion or something. Name that ppl who don't care about lore could recognize.

The planet of Draenor. I think you know that. Or you are being intellectually dishonest.

*Headesk* You know how....overused that sounds?

I doubt it will be the same as cata. They will likely have two versions of outlands.. since there is hardly any room to put more zones in. So, I assume we will go back to a lvl 100 only version. Which means less time devoted to the landmass since it already exists

Some of my favorite "just cruising around the game" moments happened in Nagrand, Netherstorm, and IQD. I'd love to see a return to similar places; without *just* rehashing Outland.

We all know Outland needs a proper restructuring. There's so much real estate that no one even touches out there anymore. I know a few times in the last two years, I ran Hellfire... then spammed Dungeon Finder till I could hit Nagrand... then stayed there till Northrend.

I'd love a revamp, that also adds more content/explorable land.

I pretty much won't be convinced of any idea before the official blizzcon announcement. Of interest where are all the Dark Below fanboys, crying in a corner or praying to metzen for it to not be true?
