Holy crap! Nathanos is trying SO hard to be no. 1 on everybody's shit list!

Does this indicate he gets away, again? Jesus titty fucking christ.

Ah yes. Man who shoots bow really well.

Truly the greatest foe we've faced so far.

Man who shoots bow really well and is a self insert of lead writer*.

Everytime I see M'lady Fedora Tipper Nathanos, he manages to get even cringier than the last time.

You mean you feel negative sentiment towards a villainous character, because of the way the character is being written? I'd call that a win for Blizzard TBH

Nathanos being a villain does not excuse him from being a cringey edgelord who somehow has godlike powers despite only possessing a bow.

[Sharby]

Still funny to me when people justify his craptastic personality by saying he doesn't lick our boots, which makes zero sense because his achievements/power-level are nowhere near ours and if anyone deserves a good bootlicking its us, the dudes who've saved the world 9000 times.

Yeah, no, there's a difference between villains you love to hate and annoying dickheads who should have thrown themselves off a cliff already because they have all the charisma of a particularly edgy rock.

What are you talking about?

He was able to shrug off Tyrande Whisperwind. High Priestess of the God Elune. A character that had also just been directly infused with insane amounts of power by her God. A ritual that kills most who try it and then she was consumed by the rage and vengeance of a God.

The longer they drag him out, the more satisfying it will be when you finally do get the chance to throw him against a particularly edgy rock.

[Yarathir]

He’s also going to throw Sylvanas bath water blight bombs

You owe me a new keyboard.

Can't argue with that one.

I miss the old Fandral, when he was just an impatient arsehole.

[Evilmoo]

Give us a release date already.

[Revamp Man]

Give us a release date already.

Halloween 2020

[TheFirstOnes]

Give us a release date already.

Key words: Alpha!

[Edward Wu]

Alright bros, brand new week.

Let's get a good build for this one. I'm hoping we get some really gnarly class changes and updates, particularly to Hunters and Shadow Priests.

[Dracullus]

Since Ion is in charge, schedule is usually pretty stable (outside really late 8.1 I think), so imo best check last two expacs.

Legion date reveal: 19th April '16, launch: 30th August '16, days:133
BfA date reveal: 5th April '18, launch: 14th August '18, days:131

Most likely SL dates (since they probably don't want to push season 1 to 2021):

27th October - 132 days = 17th June
3rd November - 132 days = 24th June
10th November - 132 days = 1st July

So imo reveal this week if it's 3rd November, next week if it's 10th. Otherwise maybe there is some delay we don't see.

[Valysar]

Give us a release date already.

Soon™ / When it's ready

Btw, we still don't have the horde starting zone / soulbinds / lvl 60 quests (with covenants) / the Maw / the rest of the dungeon / (the 1st raid ? don't remember if we test it on beta)

[Makabreska]

Waaaay to early for release date my chaps.

Because we aren't even in beta yet and things are being added/changed/fixed as time goes on. They likely have a target they are aiming to hit, but locking in this early reduces flexibility and can have a negative impact if they have to cut development time in certain areas to hit that release date.

Get more out, see how things feel and then when you are sure you can hit a date without sacrificing you let people know that date.

We were due to get the release date 2 weeks ago now had that dev update not been postponed, we're definitely not too early.
