    I'm not pretending to be a Blizzard employee. I flat out said that I wasn't one. I think that the Terenas quote is interesting is all.

    Almost certainly. Given Ion's comments about "do the eyes make sense now?" during the Shadowlands reveal, there's definitely a handful of them that do.

    Also Eye of Azshara was named after one of the leaks here, not sure who but I remember someone in this thread made the original.

    That, and the Tides of Vengeance patch. And something else in one of the presentations used as a meme/joke. They do lurk here, it is certain

    Oh I can't believe I forgot that one! Yeah that was probably the most blatant reference to this forum.

    Btw I think a Lordaeron revamp has also been a speculation for the previous two expansions. Wonder if anyone can dig out those "leaks"

    It was, Council of Glades was around when we were speculating about 8.0, and then 9.0 speculation was also bringing up Lordaeron because of the mess BfA left.

    Tbh I wouldn't mind Northern EK being revamped and be a new leveling area for next expansion. Gilneas revamp with Alliance main hub being Gilneas City would be awesome. Scarlet Crusade hints from 8.3 and Quel'Thalas being added to EK map would be awesome.

    didnt Muffinus also make a reference on twitter during Legion to an ongoing conversation in the pre BfA hype thread, or like a 7.3 hype thread? I have some vague memory of him poking fun at us over twitter

    It's a shame that the Tirisfal mystery stuff was squandered on that re-used Legion artifact scenario.

    This to me is the true power of the leaks we have here. Most are ignore-worthy, but they do give ideas that the devs are likely looking at for future expansions. I have to wonder how often our discussions here have led to meetings around world revamps & Tinkers & the like.

    No, EoA was a trademark put in by Blizzard to troll fans right before Blizzcon and named a zone in the next expac after it and referenced it. They did this before with The Dark Below.

    Tides of Vengeance is the fake leak referenced as a patch name.

    One thing that always bugged me about Lordaeron city itself is that well, it was supposed to be 'the' Capital city, but its really just the ruins of one large keep/castle. Not a city at all, the ruins themselves are just a series of towers, a couple walls and courtyards. Would love to see it shown as a city proper.

    And would love an actual functional Gilneas city of course but doubt Blizz would ever give Gilnean fans a bone (no pun intended)

    The Dark Below was a Destiny expansion, nothing to do with Blizzard (just Activision-Blizzard).

    The "Blizzard Employee" gag gaslit him one too many times and now he legitimately believes he's a Blizzard employee. The men in white coats are coming to pick him up this morning.

    It is because of in-game scale, Lordaeron should be much much much bigger.
