Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[wowrefugee]

I don't know I still think this is an oddity.

Why?

Let’s say the Dragonflighr preorder is just a bunch of items (mount/armor/etc) + access to Dracthyr in prepatch.

You think people wouldn’t look back to BfA and think “this is a regression in pre order bonuses”?

Both shadowlands and BfA pre order came with some “playable” content - BfA allied races, shadowlands AR death knights.

Dragonflight coming with nothing of the sort would be bad

Watch it being just a a DF heartstone toy. Uses al the dragonflight powers (rainbow), unknowingly/knowngly ending up like a support thing for lbtq. >.>

Why does that even matter?

[Ersula]

lol the pre-order bonus that followed up BfA's 4 allied races were just allied races being able to be death knights

i dont think they care at all about that

In either condition it was a reason for people to level new characters during the content drought & I fully expect them to do the same now. (I know most people have said the cross-faction thing is the equivalent to that but it really isn't. Nobody was waiting to make an alt from the other faction based on cross-faction grouping.)

A leak that was piggybacking off Scaleface and just added a few things, at that. Anything that wasn't directly ripped from Scaleface turned out to be false. Scaleface notably didn't have anything that wasn't really something the Dragonflight media press-kit would have access to, as a note, as he seemed to be some kind of disgruntled press guy. No 9.2.5 info or anything of the sort.

It was made about the same time as the Scaleface post, and it was right about everything except the Allied Race which is still up in the air.

At this point time will tell.

Not gonna lie, I'd love that lmao

I'd like to know why it matters as well

My take?
- Zovaal tried to go there in the first place and they stopped him.
- Then, the Primus knew about the problem and stated to make a plan.
- He sugested to create Oribos and a new Arbiter to replace Torghast and Zovaal.
- He secretly went to ZM and learned about the FO language, and created domination magic based on it.
- He used it on Zovaal to make him his puppet.
- He then puts all things in motion, making Denathrius think that Zovaal is the one with the plan.
- He then goes to Torghast and switches places with Zovaal to redirect possible suspicions, and he sends him in his path.
- When we arrive, we follow exactly what he planed to unite all Shadowland realms, defeat Denathrius, get him free and enable Zovaal to finish his plan.
- He then offers a solution to counter the magic he himself created so we defeat Zovaal.
- Everything is fixed.

Oribos is clearly the same style as other installations that are likely made by the First Ones as infrastructure. So that one is dead in the water already.
Also, where are you getting this nonsense about Domination resembling the Automa (not First One) language? The only commonality is being a language.

Besides, what's even the point of this plan? Unless he justed wanted somebody else to murder Zovaal for no real reason.

We also have no reason to actually believe the problem Zovaal talked about is even real to begin with. He's well-known to use deceit and lies to make others do his bidding at this point.

[Nymrohd]

The Automa language protected from Domination mostly because it was alien and complex, not because they were the same. I thought the explanation was "the more complex the thinking pattern of the target the harder for Domination magic to hold.
But I did think the Cypher of the First Ones was meant to be the language of the First Ones?

I can't see an issue here?

I know want a white blonde, cyan and pink color combo for Dracthyr Visage forms.

[ImTheMizAwesome]

Yall expect some allied races, but you will get a furry suit.

Ofc you don't. Look I dont care about it, that is why I dont want stuff like that getting shoved in my face.

So you want a rainbow toy, but not a much cooler transmog or other cosmetic options or a mount?

[boyzma]

Ofc you don't. Look I dont care about it, but I dont want stuff like that getting shoved in my face.

Okay, you just go ahead and let Blizzard know you don't approve of something someone just made up out of thin air and it offends you /s

Why would it be mutually exclusive? We already know what we will be getting from the survey.

Damn you, evil prophet, you seen too much.

Sir, your homophobia is showing.

I know that. The problem is already showing here, people who jump with the comment below me. It would be hilarious tho if it ends up being just that nonetheles.

O dear.. :rolleyes

[Raetary]

I know, I think you missed it was intended as a joke. The problem is already showing here, people who jump with the comment below me.

People jump on you because it's a completely unnecessary and idiotic comment laced with bigotry.

The only problem is that you, for some fucking reason, decided to make a random comment about something nobody even mentioned and now you are up in arms about it because people point it out.

I dont mind, they are free to do so. There was no hate to it as I find it pretty funny if it would be exactly that, just a boring toy that has typical colors, cus why not

Since you are clearly offended for what ever reason and you felt the need to respond in this fashion. There is no need for this tone at all. It comes off quite weird.

Oh, I didnt mean that I only wanted a Hearthstone toy as the pre-order options. I just thought the "hearthstone effect that looks like a rainbow" was cool.

We already know about a mount, pet, and back cosmetics as pre-order bonuses. So it's not really possible anyway.
