People are still automatically dismissing leaks as fake? Haven't y'all learned your lesson by now?
(I don't know anything but am taking all leaks in completely neutrally this time around.)
I can only speak for myself but I’d say it’s because while we may have an idea on “big picture” things (such as possible faction unification or level squish or world revamp or time skip) when the leaks start detailing those points it looks very amateur.
Though I’m sure some people will meme how Blizzard is being very amateur.
I also think people have already speculated so many different avenues that WoW could go that I’d be hard pressed to find any leak that is actually surprising. Most we see are based off what’s discussed on forums, but did anyone expect “the south seas expansion” to end up like BFA? Or even come close to that?
I don’t recall but it’s also been a while since the leak season for 8.0 happened.
We could also have N'zoth win and the next Exp be about us running away and finding a new base to fight back from.
Given that necessarily most of the "leaks" are wrong, that would be the most logical position, actually. Far less chance of being wrong.
And the closer we are to Blizzcon, the more "leaks" we will have. Last time we had like 3-4 threads poppin off each day.
Sometimes, the light of the moon is a key to other spaces. I've found a place where, for a night or two, the streets curve in unfamiliar ways. If I walk here, I might find insight, or I might be touched by madness.
I choose not to dismiss or trust the leaks, I feel like that is a far better experience these days. The only things I am willing to trust/dismiss is stuff I can verify which is basically nothing at this point because there haven't been many leaks found through mining except for the fact an 8th expansion is being worked on.

That new leak is so bad it could indeed be real. But it has a world revamp and I want a world revamp... *confused*

Honestly, as long as they give me a plausible world revamp I think I'd swallow every pill.
"Faction pride" exists and I don't think removing factions would be a good thing though. There are several MMORPGs with just one faction and they always felt hollow to me. I am not pro stupid faction war like we've seen in BfA but having two factions with opposing views and agendas is good and healthy imho.

Sure the idea of Alliance + Horde vs. "New Faction" is great but... what should that faction be? Where should it come from?
I think something that could work would be renaming Alliance and Horde and give every race the choice to pledge allegiance to one of the new factions, let's name them Life (Light) and Death (Darkness). So any race can be in any faction which would be really neat. I don't think Blizzard would do this though.
So instead of being bound by racial choice it's a choice of morals and character now if you prefer to be the "bad" Draenei or the "good" Draenei or whatever.

The rage is exhausting. Teldrassil isn't forgotten but when Baine does something pretty honorable even at the risk of his own life, you gotta reflect.

We only have less than two weeks until the cinematic that apparently shows what 8.3 is going to look like.
I'm still thinking its focused on Sylvanas instead of Nzoth but Ion said it shows who the final boss is, so... unless Sylvanas teleports in, or Nzoth tells everyone to go fight Sylvanas...
There are two ways to go:
1. Sylvanas is the final boss of BfA and the next expansion will be about N'zoth and Black Empire
2. N'zoth is the final boss of BfA and the next expansion will be about Sylvanas (and the Scourge?)
I mean that's pretty much it. You can spice up either of those options with a little bit of Dragons.
