Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Khaza-R]

I don't see how someone could of photoshopped something together like that so fast. Given we just discovered the name within the hour.

There's definitely some lurkers in this thread enjoying watching all this. That's all I know for certain.

[Kiria]

Oh damn, this could literally be it, Thank the gods its not an underground expansion.

[Jmatt110]

Okay buddy where did you find this

I found it on Reddit not getting much attention, I think it was posted before the name was revealed through the JS file though

[Catastrophy349]

Whelp, didn’t think that would happen today.

[ercarp]

btw, another important, but sad detail that makes the image even more credible - Alexstrasza's belly is covered. rip.

Let's be real, we all saw that coming. After recent... events... there's no way they would release an expansion with Victoria's Secret Power Rangers in the limelight. That would be in poor taste.

Unpopular opinion:

They look better covered up anyway. More room for cool armor designs!

They'd be hotter if they were half dragon anyway...




...what.

[Izalla]

The hype train never stops!

Choo-choo!

It was only minutes before the crazy discovery that I dozed off!! =(

Also correct me if I'm mistaken, this is the same way we knew 100% that WoD was the correct title before the reveal right? Like we had that leak with the bizarre "Grom is called Grommash to avoid confusing his name with a bike", but then like within a few days of Blizzcon (or earlier that day?) someone found the url that lead nowhere? Or am I insane and inventing false memories?

I think she looks great in that art, I have no problem with that if it's the model they're going with. Sylvanas's first belly-cover model was stupid because it didn't fit with the rest of her armor at all, lol.

...I just don't like the logo. At all.

Not false memories, just misremembering!

It was BFA that had the URL that lead nowhere. Discovered just hours before Blizzcon. I was there, I'd know.

WoD was a logo leak in a pre-Blizzcon interview.

...what.

You know what's up. I like you.

Yeah, the logo is... ehhhh.

I'm fine with the logo, if that ends up being it. It's pretty different but I don't think that's a bad thing at all.

I think they perfected the look with her HotS design

[Merryck]

It was always a coinflip between World of Warcraft: Dragon Isles or World of Warcraft: Dragonflight. Seems Blizzard are starting to prefer their minimalistic / one word expansion titles. Probably better for advertising?

Couldn't the seed just be to bring Ysera back to life on Azeroth?

Why? Ysera is gone, she is bound to Ardenweald now.

The Winter Queen will give to us (I mean to a NPC or only Ally players) a new seed, so we can plant a new World Tree, that will require probably the blessing by Alexstrasza and Ysera's daughter (maybe even Elune?)... easy-peasy.

Or maybe will be not so easy, expecially because by now there is only one Tree remain and maybe the Dragons are busy in Northrend...

Aha! It's so different every time what ends up found that I just mash all this recollections together. Thanks for clarifying!

[enigma77]

So dragon isles it is, I'll take it.

They could have spiced it up with some flames given that it's a dragon expansion. Even a small change like making the planet/orb thing red instead of blue would have made it look a bit more interesting imo. Right now it just looks like a differently-shaped BfA logo to me.

[Izalla]

Can anyone find any leaks from before the February "Dragonflight" one that mention Chromatus as the big bad because I think there have been a few and I'm curious to see if this was the first to pick him as the main villain.

Alexstraza's in particular has always been... just bad. Like from a design standpoint it was always just ... silly. And that's the kind word for it.

It has big dragon wings. At least it has that going for it!
