Alleria Windrunner stated that she is certain that Quel'Thalas will stand with the Alliance once again. Magister Umbric also shares this hope. It is in fact a distinctive trait of the Ren'dorei, that they seek to bring their former kin back into the Alliance. This is their goal. There are also pamphlets written by Scarlet sympathizers who attempt to sow discord and dissent within the Alliance ranks. The Scarlets have also identified Genn Greymane as a potential pawn, and coincidentally Ion cited the name Genn Greymane as a potential candidate for some Alliance drama.

    Will the leaders of the Alliance, so Turalyon, Alleria, Genn Greymane, and the House of Nobles, trust Anduin Wrynn after he has been possessed and manipulated by Satan?

    A revamp of Lordaeron subcontinent is all but confirmed at this point.
    Then theres Malganis in the current raid dropping lordaeron shields and the datamined scarlet crusade, silver hand and lordaeron shields added when exiles reach was.

    For it's worth, which is not much because I'm a weirdo/loser, you have my respect and I agree with this "what could have been." Legion!Bolvar made me excited to see where they would take this new and interesting version of the character. BFA was the beginning of the end for the Lich King. Shadowlands killed any hope I had for what could have been. This, in my opinion, would have made a for a far more interesting expansion. Gods, I wish we would have gotten this instead.

Being an island inhabited almost solely by dragons, floating isles aren't a bad idea either. In either case, I don't think the location matters much.

    One zone for each flight makes sense to me, but I don't think black dragonflight's zone being endgame makes sense at this stage. I would much prefer if the endgame zone was either the domain of a new dragonflight (white dragonflight, maybe?) or maybe centered around the charred Titan facility of Uldorus or something.
    To be honest, I am not a fan of the "zone with one specific theme" archetype we have had recently. I don't like how every zone feels so dramatically thematically isolated from one another. Like in BFA, its weird how the Gorak Tul/Heartsbane threat ended the second it reached the borders of Tiragarde and Stormsong.

    Has our lord and savior Towelliee had anything new and fresh to produce from his backside in regards to 10.0, seeing as he is the know-it-all in regards to future xpacs?

    I remember a clip of him on Twitch saying that 10.0 will be better than Legion.

    Let's not bend reality because we have some irritating weirdos in forum. Void Elves are pretty popular race, mostly because it's strange way to give High Elves to Alliance, but still. Void itself is threat with big potential, shame it was used pretty bad during BfA, where devs couldn't decide if it's war or void expansion.

    Same with Tinkers, it's strong candidate for new class no matter what people think about them. My first choice was always Necromancer, but that dream kinda died with SL, I think if we ever see them, it will be class skin for Warlocks.

    That doesn't particularly strike me as a very recent matter. In fact, i'm having a hard time thinking of a time when that wasn't the case.

    If Towelliee knows anything, he's failed to provide evidence of it.

    Towelliee knows all! Submit!

    Catastrophy349 is so painfully affiliated with Blizzard in some way that I'm honestly surprised people have only started to pick up on it, and even more surprised that others are oblivious to it.

    His post was about the possibility of a Lorderon revamp though.

    You're for sure the poster who consistently misses the point in this thread the most.

    Are you suggesting the last remnant of good characterization the Blood Elves have is their affiliation, and that taking that away would just make them generic High Elves, as well as make no sense after the numerous, numerous transgressions the Alliance committed against them? Are you implying they shouldn't entirely butcher the lore for the sake of aesthetic cohesion?

    Anyone else thinking we may get the 8th chapter (Epilogue) on the 29th of March? Same day as Sylvanas novel and 1 week after Chapter 7 (this week)?

    "About the possibility of a Lordaeron revamp"

    The reason Snorlax suggested that it was because Varodoc was talking about Void Elves was because even though the nominal topic was on the matter of Lordaeron, the actual post was riddled with mentions of them from a single-topic user. It takes very little to infer his actual intention in posting this.

    I believe that's what Vasoka was trying to suggest with the "produce from his backside" comment.

    I really don't understand where this "theory" of me working for Blizzard has come from. I can say, with certainty, that this is false. Also, you didn't answer my question!

    That's 100% what a totally real Blizzard employee would say.

    Jokes aside, that's a good guess. I'll mark it down as plausible.

    Regardless of his ALLEGED intent; it is still a worthwhile talking point. Mainly the points regarding Turalyon and the Scarlets.

    The rest of that everybody's been talking about. Why would he feel the need to ask why nobody's talking about something that everybody's talking about if not for the only rogue element he introduces being absent from everyone else's speculation?

    Everyone is entitled to think what they will. However, wouldn't it be awesome if just when everyone thinks that this week's 7th chapter is the end for 9.2, the following week released the "removed" 8th chapter titled "Epilogue"? Especially, coincidentally mind you, on the same day as the Sylvanas novel?!

    Additionally, this would be a great way to set up 9.2.5 PTR AND the pending new expansion announcement on the 19th of April.

    This is a good guess, yes, or leak, given we know you're secretly a Blizzard employee in disguise 100% no question
