Spirit of Blizzcon: Leaks of expansions past

[Beerplz]

the post by Shinrael was debunked as fake a few months ago on twitter , the art used was from DevianArt pages and the Inn is actually in Draenor not a new model

NyalothaDungeon kind of shoots that in the foot.

Not necessarily. This screenshot is from half a year ago. Some things might have changed and for all we know, we might still get Ny'alotha dungeon or even a zone. We don't know what happens with N'zoth yet.

People are sure that *everything* is fake. It's pretty annoying actually.

This, so much. People are so blinded by arrogance. Sure, the "leakers" are doing their best to trigger the community, but some people are just hating left and right and it is ugly. The "safe" ideas get criticized for being too obvious/safe, then fresh ideas get criticized for being too stupid, crazy, bad, you name it. It's sad.

Only one leak is true, and so far none of them pass the smell test. They're all either too safe or too out there.

Yeah not many are true, but when people dismiss absolutely everything outright, it's pretty pointless. Even real leaks get dismissed, which shows people don't really give it much though in the first place. It's almost as if people feel some weird superiority dismissing a leak as well.

Would love a source on that. Just to make my own amends. I've been clinging to hope that this would be the real one for half a year now.

Burning Crusade was actually going to be the Emerald Dream expansion because some guy said he found assets for the Emerald Dream when he triggered a glitch by blinking through the Deadmines Portal and fell through the world.

Notice how the "Lion's Pride Inn" text colour is yellow. If you are Alliance in Goldshire it is green.

this is only with war mode on, or how it used to be on pvp servers.

i was just messing around in goldshire a couple hours ago on moon guard(no, i don't erp, i'm too shy) and the inn's text over the map is yellow.

One of my most therapeutic things i have saved is a link to an old messageboard discussing how BC ruined WoW forever, and that WotLK looks awful and will be the end of WoW.

People have been proclaiming "WoW is DEAD!!!" ever since the game launched, really.

Aw... now I'm sad.

I'm with you here. By far the most reasonable 'leak' so far

Unfortunately, while the leak is nice the icons used in the journal were found on artstation/deviantArt/other art platform profiles of people not related to Blizz. And Blizz usually doesn't put random art found online in their games even during early testing (in case they forget to remove it from files and distribute it with the game). They usually just use something from their own library.

Woa, you did some solid debunking there. Thank you. This was the only leak I believed and while this does bring back the fear of "what if they don't do a world revamp?" which I am so desperate for at this point, it definetely makes BlizzCon even more exciting because it could be anything. And even better - I can still hope for a Dragonsworn class ^^

[plz delete account]

Jericho and Razor's leaks from this week have been debunked. feel free to discuss them here!

It's out there.

no, no it is not. i just checked the united states trademarks website for trademarks under blizzard entertainment. this is a official government website detailing all trademarks if it isnt there, then there is no trademark. last thing blizzard trademarked was diablo back in march
