Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

Does anyone recognize this as a specific current WoW location? . the thing that looks like a tentacle on the foreground is wriggling around in the video, the "spined wall" is also slithering as if it were some kind of creature and the tree is also "pulsating" for lack of a better word. the orcish(?) looking tower is static. note the colors and general aesthetic should be discarded as immaterial as they are a synthwave "tribute". This is grabbed from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NRPEe7YnCQ. I guess there's not a lot to go on here. I'm operating under the hope it might be some hint at the future of the wow story, given that it is Nozdormu opening a time portal somewhere

The zone screenshots that are usually part of the feature overview trailer

Think it got removed back during 9.0 hype season due to being too big, will change it now since I see I havent updated it in years

Interesting, did they mention what the features actually are or just the screens?

Avaloren would be completely fine as 12.0 or 13.0 focus on a condition of some more exciting(!!!) info on it being dumped during 11.0+
One of the reason why i want 11.0 to be more Void and Light focused is that in my opinion all its main dishes that have started getting cooked in Legion and were cooked during BFA, SL and DF, by 11.0 are already well cooked and ready to be served.
Quite a few years have passed since we witnessed Y'rel's genocide, Alleria and Locustwalker Void business and rise of Scarlet Crusade.
Waiting for another couple IRL years and even more in-game years for those dishes to be served means risking them to be overcooked and players loosing interest in them because too many years have passed.
11.0 is the perfect opportunity to bring back all those characters.

I mean, and I don't expect this to revealed, it's just a sort of "here's the thing".

Not everyone at MS is going to know what the Expansion is suddenly. So it's more than possible that someone is just putting things on. Like, there are likely departments within Blizzard proper that isn't fully aware of what the next expansion is, much less someone from MS.

So definitely 100% take it seriously

This part definitely. I'm on the cautious with not giving too much info regarding this what department (or 'subcompany') of MS the info is or even if it is the same department in which I was.

Looks like the roots with thorns from Kalimdor, from the Razorfen place.

Do you guys think we'll get some hidden foreshadowing in tomorrows Trade Post reveal?

Just random Durotar scenery.

At a glance, it makes me think of Orgrimmar.

[blaatschaap]

Just random Durotar scenery.

are there any void entities in durotar or do you know if there have been?

Probably not but every item will be scrutinized absurdly to the point that Teriz will confirm that it all points to going underground based off one item that loosely looks like it's a small gear.

[Holdodlig]

Yeah I feel this. DFs cinematic was the only one I didn't enjoy or feel at least a little bit of hype for.

The feature presentation format was also really bad. I mean I don't want to offense the devs but we don't care about them going into a fireside chat. When we buy a game we don't want to know how dev experience or feel about something we want them to make a good game so we can have a good experience. Kind of selfish I know but we are the one paying 50 bucks for an expansion.

This is the portal effect you're seeing above it. Notice the tree also wiggles too.

Isn't that just Durotar/Orgrimmar background from the Thrall synthwave video?

[Demonly]

Also, this is inside the other music video too.

[NoTimeToDie5426]

are there any void entities in durotar or do you know if there have been?

There are a few warlock dens around Durotar (mainly to do with the burning legion). A little further away in the southern barrens, however, there is Bael Modan, which has much speculation surrounding its demise (or more specifically the demise of the mine adjacent to the fortress itself).

It's just the vaporwave version of durotar from the other beats video.

Back to the BLACK EMPIRE.

Durotar, stormwind. Time travel. They are giving us hints.

World Revamp with time travel shenanigans.

i keep hoping

Interesting! World of warcraft: Scarlet Crusaders

Paladin for all races?

Ooh that would be cool. I can totaly see a time travel expansion with our new relationship with the Infinite... well with one infinite at least. Messing with the timeways could get us on the Titans bad side. Being able to see the old Black Empire would be awesome or maybe each zone is a different point in time..
