    It's more like tinkering with different ideas.

    I'd agree of BfA didn't eat up multiple fan favorite expansion themes in the process.

    WoD at the very least was an asspull and even re used its final boss.
    BfA's Final boss was a decade in the making and even his henchmen received their own expansion (Cataclysm).

    Pointing to ambiguous, untrue threads does not make what you say true, no matter how hard you wish it to be.

    Both agree and disagree. I'm over complaining about BfA though, just want it over and done with, SL is the last chance for my part.

    If that were true quite a lot of people would be in prison right now. that rumour is clearly shit and has been disproven but its against the law to force people to reveal sources for a reason.

    It would be weird for N'zoth to be at nazjatar(Near the maelstrom). Not to mention the scale of N'zoth might be a bit rough on the more potato machines. Sure it would be a pretty cool thing to look at but........... yeah I'm not too upset it was canceled. I just think N'zoth being relevant was just in the wrong expansion(As in one that has many concerns and such like classes and Warfronts).

    I suppose it would've been explained eventually, but that seems like a very odd location for N'Zoth. He physically wasn't in Nazjatar, his prison was located faraway from it.

    You need to read more of the thread title and first post than the two proper nouns in it.

    This is WoD all over again.

    Remember the cut content in WoD, the shattrah zone/raid cutted out, the Y'rel story thrown to the trash, the Epic cities replaced by Ashran, and the facepalming finale ?

    This is the same shit all over again. Last Time they had to pull all of the fan service and their A+ game to stop the bleeding, but Shadowlands looks nothing like Legion.

    RIP WoW, this Time for good...

    I did read it, and I still stand by what I said, it would be weird for N'zoth to be by Nazjatar instead of...well where he's supposed to be. Nothing really changes that. Even if you imply that he moved, how the fuck can you even do that as something as big as a fleshy mountain.

    BFA still has more stuff in it then WoD and Blizzard cut WoD short by the time of Hellfire citadel was being made as a raid. BFA was given much more time. But yes rah rah doom and gloom >_>

    So Blizzard fired 800 employees because of Activision? The fact that it uses lies mixed with some potential truth is all we need to know to not take it seriously.

    The Black Empire, N'zoth and the naga arc should've been one entire expansion for themselves, with BfA offering somewhat of a prelude. A lot of wasted potential in my opinion.

    WoD only had two raid tiers. This is not even close to WoD. We only have reference to a few things cut from 8.3 and 8.3.5 (which was only datamined). Ideas are always explored in the design process. WoD is nothing like BfA and I question if you've actually played it.

    What you quoted is true. Just because you don't understand a concept doesn't mean that it is wrong. For a source to be credible it has to be proven credible. The easiest way to do that is to provide your name and title. This can then be verified. No one is forcing anyone to provide these details. If you want to be referred to as more than a rumour then you have to provide verification.

    Thread title: "Let's not forget that Nzoth was originally planned to be a zone as big as Nazjatar"

    Read it again. Carefully.

    Nothing in that sentence suggests any of the semantic meaning that you have taken from it. All you saw were "Nazjatar" and "N'zoth" and then you came in here raging.

    this is every expan ever, literally every single one has had content that didn't make it into game wrath even had content on the box that was never added.

    I'm fine with it, old god shit is so ugly and uninteresting.

    Just wish they'd rush out Shadowlands instead.


    How many reeee's will this get......

    Indeed. Legion, arguably the most content-rich expansion tied with Pandaria, had an entire island cut in favor of Argus. Wrath had Azjol-Nerub, initially a sprawling underground zone, cut down to two dungeons. So on and so forth.

    I do think that 8.3 having a zone was the initial plan alongside the Old World assaults, and that zone ended up being cut in the effort to refocus development on Shadowlands. As we see in N'yalotha, N'zoth is plenty massive enough to make a zone out of his body.

    So what? N'Zoth was supposed to be 4 expansions ago too.
