G’Huun seems to have a different plan than the Old Gods ,spreading a contagion to consume the galaxy. I wonder if he’s essentially an Old God, but one that isn’t servile to the Void Lords?
Well, given that the Old Gods are themselves a contagion designed to be spread among the galaxy to corrupt nascent Titan world-souls, it's not really too far a stretch from the original Old God design. G'huun seems to have given himself a bit of a higher calling, as it were, but a corrupting parasite he remains.

Brann is still running around Azeroth getting into trouble then?
As long as Hemet Nesingwary gets eaten by a tiger or bear at some point I'll be happy.
BASIC CAMPFIRE for WARCHIEF UK Prime Minister!

"Deploying cudgel."
Shit, we'r screwed.
Well now I have to go start it, if only to abandon it before I actually get around to saving him. Sorry, not sorry, Hemet.

G'huun has been sealed away a *long* time, so I doubt he'll turn out to have been Hakkar originally.

Possibly - but Hakkar projected himself both in the history of the Gurubashi Empire as well as more recently during Classic WoW (only a few decades ago), which is something I doubt G'huun being sealed within Uldir would permit. G'huun's modus operandi and Hakkar's also seem to be very different - though there are some overlaps like "Corrupted Blood," the general emphasis on blood, and so on. Hakkar might've served G'huun, or been in the same general family of Loa with him, perhaps - but I don't think they're the same entities.

Oh my god. G'huun is the source of the curse of flesh.
How interesting!
G'huun sounds like WoWs Nurgle, but less cool.
So even though we've supposedly killed 2 Old Gods, Brann is still saying we need to find a way to defeat the Old Gods... maybe implying Yogg and C'thun are not dead.
Also it keeps saying experiments on Loa and G'huun, which could mean G'huun is a Loa they turned into an Old God. G'huun also playing off of the Curse of Flesh showing just how much the Old Gods worked with each other aswell.
