    I said that Tinker was a contender, but thanks to multiple factors I also stated that a dragon class was far more likely.

    Also has the dance animation of the Dracthyr which is definitely something.
    Oh thanks!

    I like what I see from this expansion tbh. Only thing I kinda don't care about is the new class/race.

    11.0 will be the Tenth expansion. Ten is the milestone we're looking at and thus it is 11.0 that will be the Legion-esque AND Cataclysm-esque (World Revamp) expansion that will blow everyone away.

    Once we're done with the How to Train Your Dragon slice of life fun filler, comes the Light and Void Cosmic showdown!
    It is however the tenth major version of the game. So you could turn that either way.

    Nah, I think I’m done with all this. I wanted a dragon class, and I got it. My Tinker concept is up for anyone to read, but once this expansion releases, I’m going to be hanging out in the DE forum with the other dragons.

    You mean aside from a completely reworked talent system?

    other than we have no idea why we are going, who we are fighting or what the threat is.

    all in all, a piss poor reveal.
    Piss poor reveal for what could be a good expansion. Too bad we don't know because the reveal was so piss poor.

    "They had to leave it behind when the sundering happened and the elemental energies were seeping from the land. But now that Azeroth is coming back, revitalizing...." (IGN Interview)

    Hey that sounds like it could be a good world revamp hook if we let that keep happening.

    I wonder if they're looking at 11.0 probably being slotted in for the 20th anniversary and saying "that's when we go big."

    Or maybe this is just WoW now, borderline-maintenance with minimalist expansions that fix one feature every 2 years.
    I wouldn't be surprised if 11.0 ends up being the world revamp one. A lot of the Dragon Isles assets remind me of Northrend, so they can reuse a ton of those while working on Northrend, or, maybe it's the other way around.

    Honestly I knew the reveal would be shit the moment we went from that mood-setting countdown with all the nostalgia into a 3 man wannabe-funny roundtable inn atmosphere.

    For people wondering, they mention some of the dungeon names and the focus of the raid on the official website.

    https://dragonflight.blizzard.com/en-us

    New Dungeons

    Fight to reclaim Neltharus, stronghold of the black dragonflight, explore previously unknown chambers of Uldaman, defend the Life Pools of the red dragonflight, and more!
    New Raid
    Venture into the ancient prison of the Primal Incarnates before their malevolent power can be unleashed against the Dragon Aspects.
    3 hints to surviving MMO-C forums:
    1.) If you have an opinion, someone will say that it is wrong
    2.) If you have a source, there will be people who refuse to believe it
    3.) If you use logic, it will be largely ignored
    btw: Spires of Arak = Arakkoa.

    Usually we'd get a bunch of panels but there's no Blizzcon.

    Also doesn't it feel like the expansion isn't coming anytime soon? Other times they talk about a release period no? They wouldn't even mention the alpha this time.

    Forests? Got tons of those.

    For my money I thought the area with all the pillars were nice and unique. Not exactly groundbreaking, but I am content with getting something that just looks good instead of needing it to also look like a place dissimilar from anything I have ever seen.
    I think it mostly comes down to the architecture and the roads, you could definetly add a bit more variety to those. Every culture seems to use the same sort of angles since WoD Draenei, and that is something we definetly see a lot more cultural variety with irl

    It would be amusing if it wasn't also so exhausting. This inability to not only move goalposts but also pretend that they're never wrong is almost impressive. Like, how are you going to pretend that you weren't just arguing that Tinkers were the only possible class a couple weeks ago?

  16. #50376
    So how about those 4 new classes and like 6 new classes worth of art? Now will people stop expecting the moon? That and a world revamp.

    What's offered seems fine...but only if the under the hood stuff is very, very strong. Only if the 4 core zones are all on par with Suramar, or Jade Forest, or Storm Peaks quality. Only if riding really leads to some next level exploration and depth.

    Buuuut that's a tall order.

    I’d like a quote of that please.

    The fact that Wowhead only have 3 articles up about this tells you everything you need to know about how lacking this is at the moment

    Why are their scales painted on the skin? They can't even bother doing that right...

    This is also titan architecture, and we have several of those zones already, so it's not exactly surprising.
    The world revamp dream will never die!
