Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Smokinya]

If he has access to that picture, why would he have to make anything up?

Simply for attention. He has the images and that's all he's got. He posts them along with some cryptic messages for the hell of it?

[Deventh]

Probably a Dragonmaw orc or an Ogre if that screenshot is real.

It looks like an orc from the Warcraft movie. The color palette is the same at least. (Clothing + skin) all basically looking the same color.

[Calfredd]

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.

A wrong assumption based on wrong info. Alexstrazsa predates Afrasiabi.

[Vakir]

You can question the validity of his/her claims, but using their less than great English against them as a weapon for it just makes you seem a dick.

I'll stop being smug about the poor delivery of basic information when they stop being both manic as hell and smugly impenetrable about what they present.

I feel like half the riddle is unintentional.

[Smokinya]

The SL one came straight from a purchase pamphlet and was super high quality and we also got the logo and Kyrian stuff around the same time.

This one is...messy. Possible but utterly ridiculous in terms of how every piece of information has been delivered with maximum attention whoring.

That's fair enough, but we also have the other leak that corresponds with this image. Dragonflight with Alex on the front of the "cover". That image looked really legit to me as well. If the image Scale shared is fake then its probably the best "fake" cinematic image we've ever gotten despite its quality. I'll stand by it being real. I think all his text about the expac is likely BS and he's just doing that for attention. The images just support his outlandish claims and he gets his time in the "sun" since he happened to get his hands on this somehow.

He did say he will delete his account if his info is false so there's that at least. You won't have to see his face around again, at least on that account.

Very mature and decent of you. What a great guy.

OT - I desperately hope that the figure in front of Alex isn't a Dracthyr. It doesn't fit how I'd imagine a Dragon esque race to be.

I'm with the camp that it's a flashback and the figure is a Dragonmaw Orc.

[Kohtra]

Blizzard marketing guys must be clenching their asses right now just hoping nothing more leaks before tomorrow.

Somebody on the 4chan thread said the guy in the picture is this orc from the warcraft movie

This is definitely possible.

[ZyntosAran]

Somebody on the 4chan thread said the guy in the picture is this orc from the warcraft movie

he doesnt even have clothes.

[Chickat]

A huge thing they could do is a profession revamp (especially if linked to housing). Make gathering in the entire planet relevant.

IN the planet you say? Underground expansion confirmed.

Same colors, so very possible it is.

[Vakir]

That's fair enough, but we also have the other leak that corresponds with this image. Dragonflight with Alex on the front of the "cover".

That image of Alex has nothing to do with this image of Alex.

I think that one is real. It's unmistakable as Wu's style and the logo's typeface aligns with the new type on the stream card. Plus it's more convincingly a physical poster.

Dragonflight is real, Alex is the cover girl. That's not disputed at all. It doesn't directly confirm this.

This is literally a joke FROM THIS THREAD ouroborous'd from 4chan back into this same thread. People are eating already digested speculation. I need to take a fucking break from this.

Very mature and decent of you. What a great guy.

Your tune will be different in 2 years when everyone wants their 15 minutes via streamer coverage of this crap and the speculation thread will be drowning in crappy Professor Layton puzzles of everyone trying to emulate the same shit. Trust me.

Looks as legit as the Northrend cinematic that ended up being fake.

It could be the real thing but intentionally making the image low-res is pretty sussy and doesn't make much sense. That said, the image is still better than debating arbitrary reasons why x class can't be added or implications of dragon midriff cover-ups.

Also have to mention that Scale jumped on the bandwagon of leaks and "Dragon" races and "Dragon" classes and "Dragon" cinematic leaks only AFTER it was confirmed that the expansion name is Dragonflight and the leaked Alexstrasza poster was confirmed real, too.

[Izalla]

I thought it was obvious that I wrote it since I didn't give a source or anything lmao. I'm just being silly right now as there's nothing else to do except 1) wait for more leaks to pop up or 2) the announcement to come around.

I hope I'm not the only one that noticed one of the dungeons was called "Stormfront"

[Axaron]

World of Warcraft: Dragonflight, new continent: Dragon Isles

talent trees are back, QTE style casting (hold or time), neutral race: Drac'thyr new race transforms like Worgen, native to dragon isles, New class: Envoker Heal/DPS/DPS mail lots of overlap with arcane mage aesthetic, healing spec is fire related, lots of breath abilities, dragon form looks more human than dragon, imo

not gonna leak anything else it's hours away ffs

[Hyrja]

Scaleface is WoW's version of Qanon, and look how that ended

Isnt it Evoker? If you expand Scales "leak", at least read it.
