Ahh and there it is. Best reaction gif/vid.

[Raetary]

Honestly, i'm more tired and nervous than i am hyped at this point.

The last days drained me dry.

Nice, sticks in a loading loop, as opposed to say http://blah.blizzard.com/.

Curious as to why anyone expects this to be a live link?

It's not like there's a Shadowlands equivalent to this. Replace "dragonflight" with "shadowlands" in the URL. Doesn't load, either.

Pre-ordering 1.5 years earlier is just stupid.

So is caring about a reveal rather then "at launch content" yet here we all are. If you think you will play then there is no reason not to pre-order. The only negative is that Blizzard switched to delivering some of the product so refunds are murky. It isn't strictly a pre-order in the traditional sense.

As far as I'm concerned once it's paid for I no longer have to worry about it, and I usually get 2 of the most expensive editions.

They dug too deep and unearthed a portal that sucked the whole city into K'aresh. There, I solved it.

I forgot the other most important thing, that the High Elf form is for Alliance dragons... Horde dragons have ogre forms.

At the start of the expansion, we try to plug the portal with Dalaran; by the end, we've done so with the Dragon Isles.

Bam, best expansion ever.

The more people pre-order, the less incentive they have to actually execute/give us more cool features/pump resources into this.

That'd work in an ideal world, but in practice, when a business like Blizzard not concerned with delivering the best product sees they're making less from sales, their immediate response isn't "Weird, I better put even more money into this and make it better". It'll more realistically be to cut more corners and try to deliver a product for less cost to make up for the discrepancy.


No company in their right mind is going to look at a 18 year old game that's making less money and think, "I better pump more of our finite resources into this!"

Well both websites come to the same end for me. Imagine the fucking shock if the title isn't legit either.

I have not read a single explanation anywhere so far, not all of us spend all day every day on the internet

and neither do i, which is why ive probably missed the last 7-10 "leaks" or so
but still, ive seen 5+threads popping up about it today alone soooo

Are we still doing bingo cards? Am I too late for bingo cards?

I'm gonna make mine in a few hours and act like I'm a genuis.

I'm refreshing every few minutes in case this goes live early so I can be one of the first preorders. I'll dedicate it to you.

I cashed out a bunch of my gold when wow tokens bottomed out this week. I can grab it for "free" if anything cool is immediately available, but my sub runs out in a week and I'm not planning on playing again until 9.2.5.

A how to train your dragon vibe would be awesome for an expansion. Though I super love the movies and other related media.

This might aswell be the biggest confirmation that the expansion is about dragons.
