Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[huth]

It was mentioned here

Pretty sure that is supposed to be his post-MoP/pre-WoD escape as a CoT dungeon.

I assume so.

[Stricks]

Y'all crazy lol

[Berkilak]

I will say that if the Dragonmaw are coming back, Garrosh's Escape actually could be very important. Enough to have a dungeon about it.

There was that inexplicable appearance of Dragonmaw Orcs on Infinite drakes that was never followed up...

[cone of cold]

So you are hyped about Dragons? And Dragons, and Dragons?

Nobody has seen them in years, they where in cataclysm yeah besides that they did nothing.

Suddenly they will be relevant and important again?

They were literally in every fucking expansion. We can't get rid of them.

[Teriz]

This 100%

Look at Alexstrazsa disposition:



It's clearly a submissive one.

Probably a good portion of the cinematic is Alexstrasza narrating her life from the fight with Galakrond to being dominated by Zuluhed to the fight with Deathwing to current day.

If this is real, that is what I think is happening as well.

[AngerFork]

Well we'll have to agree to disagree. We'll see what happens tomorrow, but I simply don't see Blizzard introducing a supercharged Arcane Mage class into an expansion about dragons.

Fair enough, I'm good with that. For the record, I'm not saying this is what I think is coming (because I honestly don't think it is, I'm still thinking dragon-based class), I'm more just arguing where it or might not actually be possible.

[Raxacorico]

Great. Another rape story.

I don't really understand where's the problem with that? The world is called Warcraft, there are countless species fighting for survival. Two main factions going after each others throats. Orcs were enslavers, murderers, pillagers, demon blood crazed lunatics but we draw the line at chaining the dragon queen, letting her lay eggs and using her children as war beasts?

[Wangming]

what else do you expect from an expansion called "Dragonflight"? Dinosaurs?

Didn't we establish that it will be called Wrath of the Garrosh? Or better yet, Garrosh of the Bolvar?

[Teriz]

And I thank you for that. TBH, I will be happy with whatever the result is. I simply desire a new (3-spec) class that is somewhat original and doesn't cannibalize existing classes.

Yeah i dont trust scaleface anymore. That image he posted is fake

It's when women are victims of sexual violence and are constantly portrayed as such that there is a problem. Well, her sharing a name with Alex Afrasiabi certainly makes a lot of sense when you take her rape victim past into consideration.

I wouldn't mind another draw or expansion at some point. It was such a cool continent and it's potential was wasted.

Yea, I'm a big fan of outland, but I was disappointed with the expansion, even though there were some things I enjoyed. Just felt like orc was coming out of my eyes and ears during that expansion. Though I still to this day love Gorgrond as one of my favorite zones. I don't know why, I do not know why, probably the music.

To me it still looks like a FF14 Roegadyn and not like an orc at all. Maybe a new type of Ogre at best? But the Zuluhed flashback idea does make a lot of sense.

[Raxacorico]

This is kinda what I'm seeing. To me, it looks like there are some chains falling down his chest. Also holy shit his head is SMALL (I don't think he's wearing a hood, I think the way the light hits the dragon in the background just creates that illusion).

I think his head is way bigger than you suggested

[Darkarath]

I just saw WoD cinematic and hooded Garrosh definitively looks like that guy.

[Wangming]

Also, congrats everyone. We reached page 2300 with 19 hours to spare.

Don't say that so loud. It will probably still be a couple of hours before people notice the sky/clouds is from the ingame skybox.

Alexstrasza predates Afrasiabi even working for WoW. He was just a pleb playing games back then.

Here's to 2500 before the reveal, let's go!
