Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Dracullus]

I know 9.2.7 is technical patch, but I wonder if they'll sneak some questline tomorrow.

Also I hoped for some news on Gamescom - Beta, promotion, release date, but when I search internet it looks like Acti-Blizzard won't be there at all (although I can't find direct source of that info).

DF talents can be changed anywhere and w/o any tomes:

Frankly, i wouldn't use anything from WC3 as evidence if later sources contradict it. A lot of stuff wasn't nailed down back then. Besides, Black Dragons also come from outside Outland.

There's a difference between draconic beings on Outland turning out to be the former black dragons and dragon-like beings from outside Outland turning out to be former black dragons. The former makes sense. The latter does not. It's not exactly contradicted... more forgotten, than anything, with a (minor) plot hole being created in the process. Like the distinction between the Undead and Blood Elves being allied with the Horde as opposed to being members of the Horde - the new stable of writers lost that bit in translation, making for some pretty blatant plot holes for people that are actively paying attention.

Not sure why this wasn't the case since Day fucking 1...

Meanwhile:

Man. The art for a lot of those books was terrible...

This isn't terrible. This is an artistic vision. Not all art has to be photorealistic.

Honestly, besides Darkmoon Cards and maybe Vantus Runes, what do they do now?

You're using purely circumstantial evidence to conclude they aren't from Outland to begin with. The portals could just lead to a different part of it. Outland is partially in the Nether anyway, so them coming from the Nether isn't saying much.

And TBC does directly contradict them being Demons or native to the Nether.

Rep contracts, leggo missives and still glyphs.

Glyphs, contracts and missive for leggos.

Though glyphs are a one and done thing that almost nobody ends up revisiting once they chose their desired cosmetic.
And both missive and contracts are gonna be gone in DF.

So my statement still stands.

Same reason you can't just reconfigure your D&D character in the middle of a session.

Its an RPG thing. It doesn't make sense for the character to just completely relearn their character on the spot.

It also kind of eliminates the point of talents.Why even have talents if you can just swap to whatever's optimal at any moment.

You could swap to whatever is optimal at any moment for several expansions now, due to tomes.

She looks more like a monkey than an elf.

Certainly no monkey i've ever seen.
You people are really damn reaching just to express some irrational disdain for this.

Yeah when this exists, we don't need to express disdain for anything else:

There's a whole specialisation for Contracts.

Irrational disdain? I said I think the art looks bad and that particular picture of Sylvanas makes me think of a monkey. There's no need to get offensive over an opinion that isn't really hurting anyone.

Unless you're the artist who drew it. Then I can see you being offended.

Yikes. I forgot about this stuff. At the very least, it's not on loading screens.
