Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Ersula]

Really, though, Rygelon's presence is the thing I'm wondering about most. It's not random that a Constellar is present in the raid.

We can assume he dominated the constellar to find a world soul he could use to power the sepulcher.

I agree, especially considering the mystery around them as celestial travelers who have presumably been around since before the Titans ordered things, and we've only ever seen ONE before.

[Gloriandus]

I imagine Azeroth quickly dying due to the Jailer. She's about done. Rygleon rigs the Forge of Afterlives to work as some new form of reorigination beam that "preserves" the living on Azeroth, reinvigorates her, but permanently alters the landmasses and seas. Or maybe the forge puts Azeroth in some form of stasis -- a new "afterlife" so to speak -- where she can remain until she is healed. We know Constellars aren't automatons, their role is to judge whether or not reorigination is necessary, so maybe he helps.

I could absolutely see Blizz going down the route of "The World Soul dies and that leads to the fucked up shit of 10.0"

But again, 0% chance they "reset" Azeroth.

[Revamp Man]

Are you suggesting that Zovaal wants to abort his own celestial-fetus mom?

free his mother from the prison

wan't Elegon also a celestial?

[huth]

free his mother from the prison

The fact that he's actively trying to kill her kinda contradicts that.

[Raetary]

free his mother from the prison

Free her, by cracking her open like an egg and practically bathing in her blood?

[Foolicious]

Everything points to Elegon being more like an AI to protect the engine of nalak'sha. But there is no definitive proof what elegon is exactly.

I am pretty sure it was explained somewhere that Elegon IS the engine of Nalak'sha, but it has been a good while since it was relevant.

They lack the ambition for something like that. And if they do it it would be better like a WoW 2.0 moment instead of just another expansion. I mean they could have easily rebranded Cataclysm as WoW 2 back in the days due to the massive amounts of work they put into it.

I like what was said before with this new constellar guy in the new raid , is that these creatures maybe listen to some one else instead of just the titans we all though. The guy has no buisness in the shadowlands really..

Dreadlords had the same surprise this expansion, so who knows, what they end up being.

[Nyel]

This video comparing a FFXIV cinematic from 2016 to the recent Anduin cinematic is kinda funny to watch:



While I don't accuse Blizzard of stealing or copying, the similarities are still very glaring.

[Kereberus]

Still never going to play FFXIV.

[Varodoc]

When is the quest where Alleria, Vereesa, Tyrande, and a bunch of other named characters are standing in front of Sylvanas atop Oribos as sort of trial? Is it a quest unlocked after the raid?

[john91pl]

WoW is much better

[Raetary]

It's just the same basic willpower trope we see throughout all sorts of media.

Claiming that wow copied FF14 is such a massive reach here, it's laughable.

[Sondrelk]

Almost definitely the last questline in 9.2. can't quite remember how many weeks in it is, but pretty confident it's a good 2 months at least until then.

I had wow set in the window and two maps appeared on the sides of the traditional loading. Could this mean rework azeroth?

[Zulggun]

Omg, FF LITERALLY came up with internal struggle and saying goodbye to your past! Yoshi-p is genius!
