The Dark Below Removed from the European Trademark Database [updated]

So Y'Shaarj is more dead, than a dead husk, but still has a beating heart that whispers? Okay. Still Sha are unique to him(Y'SHAarj. C'Thun would release the Thu and N'zoth the Zo. Dunno about Yogg'Saron.

I don't believe Blizzard either, but if they are still 100% genuine about Y'Shaarj being dead-dead, the distinction is there. We know that, at the least, C'Thun and Yogg-Saron were not killed. That's all.

I'm alive. You cannot resurrect me.

Yogg releases a miasma of death and destruction.

Well, looks like 5.4 was pushed back to 9/10. Kinda makes me think that they need an expansion teaser announcement even more now, what with FFXIV being released next week. Even a 20 sec. teaser would get people pumped and excited about the game and expansion.

Named what?

[Yarathir]

People are aware if Naga are introduced, it'll likely be as a Horde race or a neutral race, right?

My money's on neutral.

If they're an Alliance race, literally the only way I could see it happening is if Alleria returns, revealed to be transformed into a naga by N'zoth, and leading a Naga rebellion against Azshara, ending up becoming the Alliance Naga leader.

Or they could join the Alliance (because they have more night elf lore than they have Horde lore.. which is about.. zero?) and try to work to gain the trust of the night elves and atone through battling Azshara and her minions alongside the Alliance?


If they make Naga a Horde race, they're nuts. Either Alliance or Neutral.

The "corpse" of C'Thun was known to whisper to people in the Cho'gall - Me'dan story arc

Just wanted to mention in case people have not seen it but Blizzard just released the name of the expansion on their D3 homepage as "The Reaper of Souls" so the trademark seems 100% legit for The Dark Below.

WUT. Just watched that kinda Cinematic. AWESOME. So hope's up for a TDB Trailer on Gamescom!

[xinjun]

I doubt trailer. Maaaybe teaser.

Isn't the Blizzard section of Gamescom over?

Yes? :P


Like I said. I don't agree that Y'Shaarj is as dead as Blizzard says he is.



But C'Thun and Yogg-Saron aren't dead, that's for sure.

Supposedly 5.4 is playable at gamescom. That's the big wow attraction. And now they say it's been pushed back like 3 weeks? Bullsh*t. They simply lied about the big wow event. It will be the teaser. Can you imagine? Metzen saying: Let's watch the 5.4 trailer again, shall we? Lights go off..and on the screen: the TDB teaser.

What would they have to announce for Blizzcon if they announced The Dark Below as the next WoW expansion

A race doesn't need Horde lore to join the Horde. They need a reason to join the Horde, as in, their past lore, which you're so fond of, puts them sharply at odds with the Alliance, which means they're more likely to turn to the Horde for support than the Alliance.

Also, I highly doubt we'll see another neutral race.

So, you mean they'd copy the blood elf story that most of the Alliance hated because it was a more fitting Alliance race given to the Horde?


No. They can easily implement Naga as an Alliance race and make them work the Alliance and the night elves' trust. Yes, it can be done without Horde lore, but when there is more Alliance lore to fit with the race, it makes more sense to make them Alliance than Horde. Maybe if neither sides had any fitting lore to befit a certain playable race, you could say that.


Even so, I prefer them being neutral. But if they're not, they should be Alliance.

That would defeat the purpose of it being an element of surprise since people would be aware what the major event at Blizzcon would be

Exactly. The teaser doesn't have to be much. Maybe have a camera moving down through the water as it gets darker and darker (ominous music playing), and as we reach the darkness, 2 glowing evil eyes open up....then we cut to the title logo fading to black. That's seriously all they would need and people would go friggen nuts.

1. Beta invites
2. Next Warchief
3. Something for StarCraft 2
4. Corgis Unleashed
5. Stuff about the WarCraft movie
6. Lost Vikings

[Grubjuice]

Do you know anything about Kaldorei lore?

I know the Night Elves dispise Azshara and her highborne elves, if they didn't accept the Blood Elves into the Alliance why would they accept the naga
