How would you describe Draenor?

[Julmara]

pretty zones, nice raids, cut content

[Flatspriest]

worst expansion ever.

[Dhomeli]

Good: World. Raids. Newness.
Bad: Garrisons. Launch. Content.

I didn’t like garrisons or the severe lack of content outside of raids until Tanaan. However, I liked the world and story a lot. Just sad it was cut so short and will never be expanded on/returned to because of the reputation of the expansion. Of course we got Maghar orcs and presumably Yrel will come back, but I was hoping to explore more of Draenor… the ogre content and perhaps more. After all, the original trailer said “NEW WORLD”, which always made me dream bigger than what we got. I know Azeroth is core to WoW, but I liked the idea of a second planet to slowly expand on here and there.

[Doffen]

Not good enough.

[FuxieDK]

For non-raiders, there was literally NOTHING good about WoD.

Bad levelling zones, Bad Housing (Garrison), ShitYard, no Farahlon, No Ogre continent, Tanaan dropped as Starting Zone.

Everything was just somewhere between bad and horrible.

[TheFirstOnes]

What. A. Waste.

[Osmeric]

Draenor: the planet that circles itself.

[Demsi]

Better
Than
BFA

[kranur]

Draenor? Awesome
WoD expansion? pretty good except they fucked up thinking garrison is enough content outside of raids and dungeons.

[Dark-Zarupia]

Where is Farahlon?

[Uriel]

Much. unused. potential.

[LordKharon]

Fantastic zones & leveling

[Kauko]

Missed opportunity, great trailer and prerelease event, lots of missleading from devs

[melzas]

Best WoW OST

Malach best wow track.

[Sableye]

all the Draenai lore and tech was fantastic, all the iron horde stuff kind of ridiculous

the expansion? lost potential especially since they had an extra year from the end of Mists to finish it.

replaying it even 3 expansions later is still a nightmare

[Thage]

Describe Warlords of Draenor with three words: Spikes, stone and savagery. Barbs, teeth and skulls. And cut content

Unfortunately squandered potential.

[Easo]

Start was amazing.

Best WoW OST

Malach best wow track.

I have never understood why that track is called Malach, especially considering the meaning of the word. Pretty sure it was simply "Auchindoun" on the official soundtracks, Malach seems to be a fan made name.
But yes, it's one of the best imho, Draenor does associate with it too for me.

[vilememory]

Draenei's ancestral home.

[saixilein]

Good pvp loot

Malach is the original blizzard name of that song. I remember reading that composer lost her child around the time she was working on that ost and that had something to do with the name of it, which means angel in hebrew or something. You can dig it up, it's not fan made name.

Ah I found it:

A personal note from Eimear Noone (On Malach, Angel Messanger):

Dear Friends, Family and Worldwide Musical Family,

Thank you for your support in a project that means so much to Craig and I.

Through working on World of Warcraft under the nurturing stewardship of Russell Brower and my colleagues at Blizzard Entertainment, I was afforded an opportunity to honor our son Aaron Padraic through music.

In 2012 we lost our beautiful boy, two weeks before he was due to enter this magical world.

This piece from WoW: Warlords of Draenor features Aaron's theme and is influenced not just by the incredible artists at Blizzard, but also by Aaron's timeless Jewish heritage and the story of Masada. It is the epic adventure he might have had, told through a mother's lullaby.
