Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Kiivar86]

The April Fools patch notes reminds me of the one from back before the Draenei were revealed and the April Fools reveal of wisps for the Alliance's new race.

I mention this because I remember Blizzard's E3 booth (their last one) being photographed a few days before and all the Draenei artwork as well as shots of in-game Draenei, but with no context, so people went "wait, the wisps were a clue! Wisps killed Archimonde and other eredar surely, so maybe they're possessing eredar corpses!"

Ah, makes me laugh all these years later.

Tbh, Tinkers being mentioned on April Fools post gave me a gut feeling they are ACTUALLY gonna announce them on April 19 like "Ha, you didnt expect THAT, right? Look how cool are they!"

[Lady Atia]

Yeah, boring is the word. I mean in BfA Sylvanas was a villain you could hate. Really hate with a passion, especially in how bad she made the Horde look. And you could hype for Azshara and N'zoth because they have been long-rumored and requested baddies for a long time now.
Zovaal on the other hand? It is very hard to care about him either way. It took us till 9.2 to learn if his plan would affect us at all.

But maybe I don't want to hate Sylvanas? She was one of the few great female characters we had since WC3 and randomly turning her into a shit villain without any other reasons than "she is eeevil now" in BfA was the biggest fuckup of that Afrasiabi dude and I'm glad he's gone. And I'm glad they fixed her with the Sylvanas novel tbh.

It depends on what you consider fixed
The wrath gate thing is weird like that
“Oh I would have celebrated if we killed Arthas but since we didn’t I must be conflicted with the collateral damage” that’s just saying she’s ok with awful things if she gets what she wanted

[Revamp Man]

It's not if she gets what she wants in that case its. If we kill Arthas then the cost is worth it but its only worth it if we kill Arthas.

Yeah and she wanted to kill Arthas

I wish someone would just drop the real leak already. I've been going through all the ones we've seen so far and I don't think a single one of them sounds particularly credible. I'd be extremely surprised if one of them somehow ended up being true.

At least a week or two from now, the chances of someone posting the real leak should increase somewhat as we draw closer to the expansion reveal date.

Incoming time skip

In the book the jailer tells Sylvanas that years could have passed in the time it took her to get revived by the valkyr

This would explain why khadgar was talking about feeling the years when he was supposed to be in his fifties

Someone needs to put this misconception to bed, lol. Khadgar has been hanging out as a raven in Oribos since pretty much the launch of SL.

That or they are finally remembering that aging spell that Medivh him with

You'd think Genn and those who weren't in the Shadowlands until Sylvanas' judgment would've said something then.

[Shandalar]

The best part its the confirmation of tinkers will never happen. They even laugh of the tinkerfags lol.

Glorious.

[Foolicious]

Khadgar has lived like 30 years in an old mans body so i think it makes sense that they mention him feeling like an old man. Even though i like him as a character i never fully agreed with changing him from gandalf to dr. strange so hes more attractive

Khadgar had his life sucked out from him by Medivh and thus he speedran from 20 to 50. He is like 80+ physically now without any timeskips.

They are having a laugh at leakers, the tinker part is just an extra bit on top.

Yeah that was dumb. Especially since there is a plant called Khadgar's whiskers. Like, dafuq do you mean, he is clean shaven.

Hell, I'm 35 and I feel increasingly like an old man as-is.

Granted, a stroke, a car accident that tore up my left shoulder joint, and generally living like a slob doesn't help matters.

[cocomen2]

Somehow 1 april joke class from blizz sounds like bard description. DAMN BRO

[ercarp]

I hope we get Gandalf Khadgar back someday. I still don't understand the change. Maybe they did it because they felt like having another wizard with a big white beard was too stereotypical as far as old wizards go?

Pretty much. I'm in my mid-20s and I feel like I'm half-dead most of the time. Not saying that's a good thing, but it is what it is.
