Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Triceron]

So that's it? I have better memories of Legion announcement.

You could have a crowd track cheering or booingin the background like at a Blizzcon if that makes it feel more immersive.

[ZyntosAran]

Also they said theres gonna be "gameplay" opportunities for the bronze dragonflight zone. Might be a system there (maybe a torghast like system over different timelines?)

[micwini]

What the fuck is this.

This is terrible.

Just one new class/race and it's ONLY the god-awful looking Drakthyr.

Hardly any new features except for updated UI, professions, etc.

NO mention of any revamps.
NO allied races.
NO new class/race combos.
NO class skins.

This is an extremely thematic expansion that goes 200% into the theme of dragons. But there's no mention of fucking AZEROTH, just the Dragon Isles.

Lordaeron, nope? Quel'thalas? Nope? New home for the Night Elves - nope? Elune? Nope!

Time to change name dud.

[Auburst]

We are never getting the Blizz back from 2008. It's over...

Even in MoP fat bears were at least a new race not some stitched up stoneborne with a scalie dream. Give me Drakonids or something.

Looks fine to me.

If you like reused stuff then sure it prolly looks fine to you.

Yeah. There's a lot of reused assets here. Kinda crazy actually.

Even horns are reused. Ridiculous shit.

[Mace]

"made for the woke crowd", what an incredible criticism lmfao

Why would it be a criticism?.. it's just an observation.

[Syegfryed]

Like that is just stupid. Why not give the choice to pick Elf or Human? Why does the male have to be elf and female human? Blizzard sigh...

Why not give the chocie to pick literally any other race

[ercarp]

They showed Galakrond when discussing the proto drakes history does that count?

Nah, I'm not gonna count that.

[Buliwyf the Omen]

male drakthyr

THAT THIRD ONE! That beard is literal fire.

And my main was Hunter for all these years, already saving up all the nice mogs. Hype.

[JDBlou]

Responding to his genderless dragonkin - I thought that would be obvious.

Mate I don't know if you know this, generally lizards have no visible secondary sexual characteristics.

[therumblings]

Dracthyr being Evoker only needs to change. This is a huge issue.

I would happily main a Dracthyr. However I don't enjoy playing healers or casters, apart from Balance Druid.

I would love to play a Dracthyr warrior, hunter, enhance Shaman, druid.

I legit think they will change this.

[Cherry123]

so what about this expansion? DRAGONS Dragons dragons.... like COVENANT Covenant covenant

smells like danuser

[Mauderkin]

anyways best indication that the expansion might actually be good is that 99% of the bitching is about the dragon race

[Deventh]

That is the World of Warcraft playerbase in the current year. They are fine with anything Blizzard throws their way and would gladly "consume" it.

[Kagdar]

So you will be forced to use the dress all the time on your dragonkin form? If they even have limited gear or not any at all because the default one, its the most limited race ever.

The new race would look good if they didn't stand that straigth. Make them lean forward and be shorter and they would look cool.

Its called Dragonflight. What do you expect? Apples?

[Mauderkin]

Why should lizards have titties

[Slowpoke is a Gamer]

I legit think they will change this.

I hope they listen to feedback on it, but after the last two Betas I expect they will... in 10.2.

[ChairmanKaga]

I was hoping we could be any playable race for our humanoid form

I would have liked that too but I see what they are doing integrating the scales and horns and things into the humanoid form so I get why they are limiting it to the most human base groups much like they limited DHs.

[SniperCT]

Does the existence of transgender and other minority developers terrify them?

That's your answer right there lmao

[Cheezits]

I legit think they will change this.

I'm not sure, it would mean making the dragon form able to use weapons. It may be possible though.
