Is that how you always respond to being disagreed with? Because that's the second time you've said "the fuck?" in response to me disagreeing with you; just sayin'.
Eredath is pretty enough, but I didn't love it.
Oh, shit; I got into it with yet another example of that mindset, didn't I? Now, I need a facepalm emoji; and the board doesn't support those.

Ask me about Deceiver's Vengeance, the Argus Scrolls, or why Tyn does not approve.
Good work can still be improved upon.
Korthia is honestly one of the better patch zones, and I don't even mind not flying so much, because it is small enough where you can pretty much reach the the bottom (without the mount) in like a minute. It's compact, lots of content and goodish rewards (Stuff that affects other zones like the rep tokens for rares and WQs is a great system and I wish they would do stuff like that more often).
The main problem with the content isn't that it's necessarilly all that poor. All the bitching about Torghast for example even before the changes was laughable in the faces of multiple patch-long entirely RNG dependant leggo grinds in Legion up until the very end. It's the combination of a glacial release schedule and the fact that these problems are now iterative, notwithstanding the lawsuits. Even if the game is 'better' in the abstract sense, the problems with it have been problems for years now and they stand out all the more.
Also, while Korthia is better than the Broken Shore, Mechagon + Nazjatar blow it out of the water. It also badly lags behind Argus' spectacle.
Dickmann's Law: As a discussion on the Lore forums becomes longer, the probability of the topic derailing to become about Sylvanas approaches 1.
Tinkers will be the next Class confirmed.
The current content will always seem "terrible" because we are bored of it now. You don't have to think about how bored you were in 7.2 when you had already completed the Mage Tower challenges and you had nothingto do but look at Argus in the sky and wait. But once that is over you can freely look back at the good stuff without the baggage of being bored of it.
This problem is massively amplified by droughts. And if there is one constant with Shadowlands it is that the lack of content is a severe problem.
All the problems of Shadowlands become amplified by the drought. Bad or boring systems stay for far longer than their shelf-life. Story becomes even more boring as the usual slog through predictable turns becomes ruly glacial as the nuggets of quality get further and further apart. Even general fatigue of the expansion and theme as a whole is more problematic than usual when we are currently in what is supposed to be the most exciting hype period for the next expansion, and we are still in 9.1, not even sure what 9.2 will be or even if that will be the final patch or not.

You seem more upset than me. I simply think this choice is dumb, and makes no sense. Also, never mentioned millennials, bud. Don't project. No reason why mf's should be upset over a guys past, joking thoughts over a faction and its playerbase. He said shit lots of people say regardless. It's such dumb logic.

Yeah, DESIGN wise, sure. I like Korthia much more than Mac'aree in that regard. That's not our debate though.
"Only problems with Korthia are bland environment (don't have nice spots like Mac'A.. I mean Eredath)" That's literally what we're talking about.

Do you have a problem with my disagreements? Explain to me why you think Korthia looks better than Eredath. Please. Cause the zone's a forest, with the same Maw skybox as before, and its "City of secrets" is barely a ruined vault at best. Besides, if you want me to elaborate, ask. Don't be condescending about it, please.

If you want to be dishonest, please do it right. Hell, I didn't even know you existed till now, so don't act like you know me.

And people who spout shit like that shouldn't be given a platform, and shouldn't be immortalized in a video game.
There's is a difference between "joking thoughts over a faction" and this. If you honestly think that an individual like that should be highlighted in WoW, then sorry, but you might be a Gamer™
I am a gamer, that's why we play games lol. Unless there is something I'm missing, of course. But no one is saying they should be "highlighted", but you have to be reminded that this was his introduction for a Horde Rock Band, when everyone was on that "Faction bias" fun. So, once again, don't see your argument here. Also, yeah him calling Silvermoon "queer looking" is kinda weird, though lots of Horde mf's were saying that same shit back in the day also. Hell, they still do.
Do you honestly think he's being homophobic when he says that? Or do you think he's simply mocking the Alliance and being a little too prideful of his faction?

I think the best comment regarding this was something I found on YouTube:
"Someone's trying WAY too hard to seem hard and metal." Dude's trying way too hard to sound hard, metal, and badass, and it simply comes across as sad and degenerate.
Just like people aren't ACTUALLY racist when they say the N word, and just like people aren't ACTUALLY misogynistic when they make derogatory towards women, right? Even then, it doesn't make it okay in any way, and once again, actions have consequences.
Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar. Anyway, I am done here.
Yikes that corpsegrinder dude....

Well this page of the thread has taken a nasty left turn...
On to more salient matters. Any bets on a release date announcement for anything WoW SL related this week?
I am absolutely starving for content, and I need something to stave off boredom while I wait.

Afaik the mage tower is not on the PTR yet, right?
Other than that, i don't think there is anything big left to test unless they add something last minute.
Release is most likely gonna fall on Nov. 2nd.

It will certainly be interesting to see how Timewalking gets tuned. It was always horribly tuned between each class already, and some classes have changed quite a bit since then.
I guess Blizzard could lean back on the fact that the cosmetic reward only requires a single spec to get through the challenge, but still.
I cannot remember if I have heard anything on whether Legiondaries and such will be useable in the Mage Tower though. I know they mentioned M+ Timewalking would function differently, but I am not sure whether they also meant to include the Mage Tower challenge in that.

For me this is much too condensed. We need a good topic for future expansions after all.
Suggestion:
10.0: Comeback to a changed world with revamp of Northern Kalimdor plus Lordaeron. Seamles integration of Draeinei and Blood Elven territory, etc. Rebuilding of the new Capitals for Night Elves and Forsaken in focus, but main action is around the Dragon Islands. Groundwork for new lore, rebuiliding for factions, races, etc, hints of big bads. Races like Ogres and Fulborgs. Dragonsworn Class. Etc.
10.1: Evil Dragonflight make their moves. A zone gets infested with Void(Twilight Dragonflight). Another has its timeline broken(Infinite Dragonflight).
10.2: Odyn, always wary of the Dragon Flights, makes his move, returning to Ulduar to take controle over Azeroth. Armies of Titanforged, Val'kyr and more threaten all who oppose, as he tries to reach a special Titan facility surrounded by a new zone.
10.3: Galak'rond is awakened and we battle him and his forces around the final zone and in the last zone.
10.3.5: Yrel's forces arrive to promise us help against the other cosmic forces. At first the Alliance welcomes them openly despite the Horde's warnings, but then ...
11:0-11.3: We follow Yrel's forces to the planet of K'aresh, trying to stop them, as they plan to shift the balance of the cosmic forces in favor of the light. We meet Xal'atath again, who offers to help us in our struggle. Meet exotic places. Maybe visit a place re-/de-formed by the Light. Maybe return to AU Draenor to save survivors/attack their base ... A special feature could be Light or Void customisations for all races.
12:0-12:3: We go to Kezan, where the Goblin Cartels fight amongst themselves for new tech from K'aresh, trade opportunities with the Etherals, etc. A giant underground zone, a new neutral hub as Undermine, Troll Ruins, Old God Temples ... Tinkers would be the new class.
There is a lot of lore Blizz could use and even proberly connect with cosmic stuff.
At best, it would mean that he's entirely okay with using people's existence as an insult, and didn't really consider the optics. (No, being in an edgeling bans doesn't justify it.) And then, there's the suicide-baiting.
Anyhow: if one is a fan of the band, that's one thing. But I've said my piece on people making a federal case over the removed lines and name changes; to frame it as somehow a "political statement" in a way that the presence of the lines, etc. were somehow not is to miss the point and hold a double standard.
