If this leak is true, then I was right with my prediction that Dragon Isles would be one zone split into smaller sections like Argus and that Undermine would be a zone too.
Just way off in regards to a full world revamp and Tel'abim being a zone.
I still feel like Tel'abim will be a zone in the future with a Titan facility there. Uldaz would be more fitting than it being on the DI, though.
When the Leak is real, why this didnt happened?
Expansion announcement February 28th. Announcement for the announcement planned for the 18th
So they not only delayed it, but they also decided that they will expand the Time between the Announcements?
Announcement of the Announcement will be now 36 days instead of the planned 10 days between them?
This doesnt make sense.
The magic Nelf seed is completely ignored in the leak though this isn't exactly out of precedent for Blizz. Worgen/Gilneas too.
Looking at the "leaked box art", I can assume that some form of Dragon Knight is hinted at, as Alexstrasza with a spear heavily implies FF Dragoon vibes. Unless that's just Alexstrasza getting a new look.
Ironically the "dressed up" Alexstrasza is one of the clues that add credibility to the "leak".
As for the MMOchamp leak of the same title, I hope it's fake as it has atrocious ideas with micro classes, cheap class skins, and "Chromatus" sounding like a villain that makes Zovaal seem like award-winning writing.
If not Chromatus, who do people want as the main villain for a Dragon Isles expansion?
Nozdormu? Galakrond? Xal'atath? An introduction of new characters comprising of a, forgive me, empire of dragons?
Galakrond is wayyyy too similar to Deathwing. Murozond works but shouldn't be the main as it implies Time Shit, and Xal will be in the background of course.
Chromatus works the best of all of them IMO as he is a dragon threat that isn't just BIG FUCK YOU DRAGON like Deathwing and Galakrond. Also he is tied thematically to all the flights instead of just one (or none, in Galakrond's case).
It became clear that it wasn’t realistic to try to get the audience back to being more hardcore, as it had been in the past. -- Tom Chilton
I have no issue with it being Chromatus.
@Fahrad Wagner - I can only see Galakrond as a world boss or a penultimate boss of a raid. Unfortunately, unless he gets a lot more character, then I can't see him carrying an expansion.
Dragonflight.blizzard.com is a sub domain rather than a domain. In other words you cannot buy/create that sub domain if you do not own the rights over the domain blizzard.com
Another thing is that those URLs in the source code are most likely a future redirects to the sub domain in question. Pretty legit leak if you ask me.
The certificate which is also mentioned is an SSL certificate. Put it simple it is used so the website can load with https protocol. It is again fairly impossible to buy/set/install SSL certificate for a domain you do not own.

Kind of rolls off the ol’ tongue, doesn’t it?
It doesnt have to be a dragon villain btw.
The expansion could be about us helping the aspects back to power and overcoming different hurdles along the way.
