Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[therumblings]

There were "Ardenweald raid [PH]" items datamined.

Pretty sure those were just items you got from turning in Castle Nathria raid tokens to Night Fae vendors.

[Yossarian]

everyone prepared for one minute of sylvanas?

no please no, no more Sylvanas
unless it is her being executed, or sacrifying herself, whatever, I'm so sick of her

[LemonDemonGirl]

N'zoth is gone, the void elves are the worst thing about recent WoW lore. Time to let it go. Old gods = permanently gone. Okay? Someone needs to give it to you directly finally. I'm sorry, but that's how it is. Also, Alleria is the worst Windrunner sister (and that's a heavy thing to say considering how trash Sylvanas is). At least Sylvanas is relevant.

Let it go, you will feel better. Just let it go.

I've already done this with Zandalari/trolls have any sort of development, and Bwonsamdi being relevant. The story for them is only going to worsen

Uhh.. Not sure if I feel better though. I'm kinda sad

[Raetary]

The cinematic is just as long as the cataclysm one.

The avatar matches the personality to be honest.

Venthyr just seem too ugly to have people play them. I could see undead elves though

It might seem like that, but I have seen nothing but love for thease vampires to become playable and they are more unique then san layn. I dont mind either, but venthyr seem like a better option.

It was kinda the discussion before.. sanlayn are elves with bat ears and venthyr(nee model and animations) a full vampires. I had hoped we would get some san layn link in the shadowlands, so that blood curse wouldnt be so random from icc. Sadly nothing was explained.

[Syegfryed]

like, i can't confirm, but im almost sure every shadowlands big cinematic despite the castle natandria have sylvanas as pivotal point on it, so yeah, no way she isn't on it, and just like anduin cinematic i assume she will rob this one as well.

[Alanar]

The avatar matches the personality to be honest.

He is kinda right... you know.

It was just part of the bachlash I would imagine, when your favorite lore person said he might not be fully gone. Where you went full rp on this and make it seem like hes just waiting again for another shot and brewing.

The truth is he wont for many years.. best shot is getting c'thong back in the game for a patch. Just like death theme wont return anytime soon after SL.

[Valysar]

Yeah, Sylvanas started the Shadowlands, she'll end it.

Looked at the last few still encrypted cinematics:

1:23 min (4279697) - Jailer Finale
0:51 min (4279707) - Jailer Pre-scene
0:25 min (4279702) - Pelagos becomes arbiter

So kinda neat we'll likely see a cinematic before and after the Jailer fight.

wait, pelagos has a cinematic? I thought it was cutscene

One. More. Day! Super excited to see what happens tomorrow.

[Marlamin]

Both the Jailer pre-scene and the Pelagos one are a combination of cutscenes and cinematics, it seems.

[Lady Atia]

TLJ was the best movie of the new trilogy. ROSW was boring as fuck, though. I will agree with the parallel, though, if only to say that the SW fandom is probably the only thing remotely comparable to WoW's in terms of pointless toxicity.

You got that wrong - TFA was the worst movie of the trilogy as it was just episode IV with new people. TLJ tainted Luke Sykwalker and killed off Snoke so that's the second worst thing. ROSW was the only good one of the three as it brought back Palpatine and killed Kylo Ren lol.

So basically like the N'Zoth finale?

[Nyel]

Yeah, Sylvanas started the Shadowlands, she'll end it.

She‘ll set it free.

[Dragon ANX]

She‘ll set it free.

She will set US ALL FREE

Pelagos cinematic will probably has no "importance" in the way of setting up the future xpac, so we technically have 2 cinematics to set our future.
I still feel its kinda short, but maybe (copium/hopium) Blizz will do something good

[Kiivar86]

I'm not expecting any sort of hint to what is coming next in those cinematics.

[Valysar]

Yeah don't expect too much from the Zovaal cinematics, you'll be disappointed

[Progenitor Aquarius]

Imagine this. After defeating the Jailer, we come back to Azeroth, a half-destroyed planet. What would you do? Watching the Jailer's fight journal. Pylons in the Sepulcher collapse, which means he will tear the whole damn place apart. He is literally juicing the whole planet! Geezz.

i would stare, baffled, by the surprise of Sylvanas, coming forward, against all odds, to save us all from the Jailer final act.
