Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Niwes]

I'd be more than happy if the new class was just a mail-wearing copy-paste of Dragoons from FFXIV.

sounds like you have some proof of there being a new class at all ?

oh, and btw: just 1 another day… let the disappointment begin!

edit:
announcement minute1: „no new class“. bam!

[Alanar]

It's as interesting as vampire stuff, so not at all.

Ye the dragon stuff seems boring as fuck tbh.

[Niwes]

This prediction thing sounds funny, I'll write down mine

No proof, just that it's been 6 years (potentially 7 by the time 10.0 releases if there's still no class) since they added a new class to the game. I think it would be good to add one now if they want to win back any of the players they lost with BfA and SL.

Oof, on reveal day this thread will turn into a Twitch Chat when it comes to message speed. Hype did not spare me at all, am stocked af for the 19th.

yep, get a bit same feeling in my guts.

while many of us don’t want another halfassed outer space like expansion, we at the same time don’t want boring dragons. 17 years of wow were full of dragon stuff. i would say wow had enough dragons. so…

[Raetary]

1 day, 23 hours, 23 minutes and 7 seconds left to go.

[NikolaiShade]

yes and no, I'd like an expack like Legion were the main theme is the same for the whole ride, being it Dragonflight (maybe) I expect dragons

[Alanar]

I'm not really interested in it either but if they make a new class I will be happy to try it out and see if it is fun. It's just not something on my personal wish list or anything that speaks to me really, and I don't look at any of the available races and go "man why can't I be an orc dragon?" the way I look at other races and go "man why can't I be an X Y?"

Same here, Its just isnt interestring to me. The talks about wanting a dragonform with any race like dragons just sounds lame to me, but to each and their own.

Just wait for the kyrian recolors with more spikes as cloaks. Its just not going to be cool..

[Raetary]

To add my own Bingo card since i didn't do it earlier:

yeah, ofc from the rational side a totally agree. you just sounded that sure, i thought i missed something. rational side aside, the last year of ATVI Blizz not ensures much hope, they really invest heavily into wow again. i totally can see some filler xpac wirh cheap feature list stuff (aka „systems“) and no new class. tbh.

[Alanar]

yep, get a bit same feeling in my guts.

while many of us don’t want another halfassed outer space like expansion, we at the same time don’t want boring dragons. 17 years of wow were full of dragon stuff. i would say wow had enough dragons. so…

Ye same feeling.. we have seen so much dragons in different shapes and colors.. we have seen them. Wrathions dragon model also didnt got me hyped for what ever reasons. I mean there arent much options left so without the cosmic bs, this is probably the next best thing.

[NikolaiShade]

... some filler xpac wirh cheap feature list stuff (aka „systems“) and no new class...

Shadowlands?

[Niwes]

To add my own Bingo card since i didn't do it earlier:

where is the bingo card with 3 x 5 „cheap shit feature X“ tiles (aka „systems“) and 2 x 5 „no content“ tiles ?

tbh: seems rather realistic to me.

... Is this supposed to be a funny reply?

Couldn't find any mention of this in the thread, but a quest designer may have spilled the beans on something from the 8th.

Shadowlands?

lol, thought the same while typing.
thought about questioning: „are 2-3 filler xpacs in a row even ALLOWED ?“
