I'd still want it to be a collection of puzzle type minigames. Picross/nonograms, sliding puzzles, jigsaw puzzles and so on, all with an Archaeology theming (e.g. "Put the artifact back together correctly") that you can do on the go when you have to wait for something.

It could just be something related to his stream.

WoD classic but they actually finish the expansion properly & restore all the cut tiers. (Shattrath legion tier, Iron Horde tannan tier. Faralon, ogrelandia)

See, stuff like that would make sense if they would have incorperated classic within the retail game - as in, make it so that you can send characters from classic realms to retail realms, one way. But as it stands now, they can't and shouldn't do stuff that was never part of the retail game besides seasonal gamemodes or stuff like wannabe m+, stuff that's gameplay based but not storybased and doesn't need new art at all.

Did they ever admit this or talked about this?

There was a whole zone shown next to draenor in the reveal, which was cut before launch, no?

... You know that Metzen worked on every expansion up to and including Legion, right? The cosmic storyline and all that is his baby, like it or not. He wrote Chronicles. Sure, characters like Illidan would be handled better because he has 15 years of experience, but the odds of things going in a different direction are slim.

Mysterious overnight hotfix question for the hype thread that might be something or might be nothing, what do the Ebon Blade, Serpent Riders, Skyguard, Sunreavers and Silver Covenant have in common? Also affected were 26 NPCs of various races some of whom will wear tabards for earlier mentioned factions.

Faralon they did say was going to be added & the faction hubs.
Ogreland was seen on the map for the original announcement.
I believe they said the shatt tier was cut because of garrisons(?)

What they didn’t say was the tannan tier, but the zone was in the files & there were weapons (like the legendary gorehowl) also found.

The amount of miss-information about Metzen is crazy and has me worried that fans are going to drive him away in 2-3 years again when they do a surprise Pikachu face in a year or two. I love Metzen and hope he improves the story, but I am not going to place any expectation that I know who he is today compared to when he last worked.
