I expected little and was still disappointed holy fuck

I'm actually glad that i skipped this expansion as well as WoD. There was a whole lotta mess but one thing i can say is that WoD had a better ending patch zone than 8.3. The end cinematic was very underwhelming because at the very least, i expected to hear whats next for Wrathion after his father killer is gone and we also had the shadowlands trailer before this raid so we know where we are going next.
What are they gonna do with the blade stuck in Azeroth and when are they gonna deal with it? When Illidan and the other comes back?
Also Blizzard needs to stop building up good lore characters and then wasting them in expansions like this one. They dodge a bullet by not killing Azshara but unfortunately can't say the same for N'Zoth. Just like how WoD put pressure on Bliz to make legion a good exceptional expansion, they have to triple their efforts for shadowlands. And the way how im seeing things, i'm getting BfA vibes for shadowlands. Funny thing is people and i would buy the expansion and then not touch it for months at a time lol
I don't actually think this is the real ending. All the lead up dialogue and post-raid dialogue suggests this might not be as cut and clear as we think it is. Especially the dialogue if you have N'zoth's gift. An NPC pretty much says "If our master is dead, then why do you retain his gift?". This is all gonna be one of N'zoth's tricks and we've all fallen for it.
I hope they will no longer use in-game cutscene, in 2020 it looks stupid, poor N'zoth become a member of the clown fiesta.

Well, N'zoth does require a facefull of Forge of Origination to kill- the stuff that can literally erase all life on the planet. That's magnitudes more firepower than what we brought against the other Old Gods.
Still, if I had my way the blast would have failed to kill N'zoth, just weakened him a lot and dispelling all his illusions so he could finish be finished off. That would have been a lot better than the awful in-engine cutscene we got that wasn't even pre-rendered in order to show our character being a conduit for a Kamehameha.
Yes I am playing 8.3, struggling but I am playing it.
But it doesn't matter how we do it, we still did it. We still took down an old god, we'll be the ones hailed. "Well done champion", Sure Magni isnt gonna take any credit. From her eon in it will be "The champion who slayed an old god". We have transcended :P
What a fucking sad way to END an already underwhelming expansion.
One time because Tyrande freed him and he wanted to prove himself. Then after that Malfurion and Tyrande banished him he immedialty went back to his old ways and sided with the Legion. It's only because he failed to destroy the Scourge that he went to hide in Outland.
Anyway, he's always driven by his lust over power or his love for Tyrande most of the time. Not by a "greater good goal" of destroying the Legion.
What a disappointing cinematic. I knew BfA was a crater full of faeces, but this ending was just sad. Only a little added on top of what was leaked a while back.
I'm not entirely sure I want to resub for Shadowlands now. If I could refund my pre-order, I would.
Sylvanas was wise enough to see this shit coming and unsubbed.
Hilarious doesn't begin to describe it, there wasn't even dialog lol.
Flying hamster for 6 months subscription to keep the game "alive". Then the 9th ending "cinematic" for the biggest mmo ever comes involving an old GOD.
Strangely it all comes together now.
I am playing the game for the story but lately Blizzard just like to bitch slap everybody.
You have no excuse to treat the ending of an expansion with an in game cutscene. Even Azshara had a longer ending cinematic. Dont give me the we focus on the next expansion routine as this is what you always say.Everytime the last raid of an expansion comes you abandon it and focus on the next expansion.
It is rude to the playerbase.
