Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

Nah Odyn is the one who kept trying to reach it and all the expeditions he sent failed. More like the magical gas of anti-Odyn.

So everything is clear - Loki was here too.

World of Warcraft: Can You Dig It?

[Marlamin]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Dragonflight the only one where we got the name because of the website anyway? Trademark registration seems to be what this person is thinking of and that hasn't been an issue for Blizz in years... I can't remember where the name Battle for Azeroth came from just before the announcement... but I do remember people trying to type in the page for Warlords of Draenor to confirm that was really the name of the next expansion.

I don't know what they're talking about, to be honest.

Could be the trademarks yeah, but that hasn't leaked anything for a few expansions now, BfA was the last one.

We got the Dragonflight name confirmed thanks to source code on the regular site, so not through domain registration as it was also just a subdomain (which one doesn't have to register the same way as top level domains).

We did see a SSL certificate being issued for dragonflight.blizzard.com (I think after the source code leak), with emphasis on it being a blizzard.com subdomain and not Battle.net, so that's probably why people are keeping an eye on certificates, but they're also being far too paranoid and focusing on any subdomain they can't explain.

The amount of cope…this is it. This is THE domain register that happens every single time before an expac announcement. This is literally it. How are people denying it? This literally happens every single time. The domain is registered right before blizzcon and then it’s announced. EVERY SINGLE TIME

Please someone explain to me how and why people are denying this. This is LITERALLY the expansion domain registration, THIS IS IT

This is so weird to see. Are people just plugging their ears or something? I mean it’s so incredibly obvious that this is it…lol, how are people seriously debating this?

Why do people like you ignore incredibly reliable and intelligent people explaining why that domain exists and that's been renewed multiple times since 2017.....

Satyr was one of the 01 puzzles

For what purpose? Imagine wasting that much time on fake news.

Well, yet here you are in this thread aswell...
And it's the legit news, as I'm asking for the legit leaks.

Wait just a fucking second here Bird.

Who is Azeroth's Dad?

Dadzeroth obviously

[Dismayxz]

Dude is addicted to the game and yearns to be 13 again when he was a kid with no responsibility. He barely even plays classic, he'll genuinely never be happy with WoW again imo

It's not like he's currently in a high responsibility situation that isn't of his own deliberate making. His job has less responsiblity than most jobs, OTK as an Org factored in. He's 50/50 on being a character and being himself, I think that much at least shows and most of his audience are Classic Frogs and jaded WoW Players, so why would he not be inconsistent with his takes. He cares about the Game, I believe that much, but it is better for his Job, his Viewership if his stance is constantly shifting with the negatives, rather than the positives. Definitely not good for the game though, in the sense that his audience reaches numbers high enough to tank game reception on a larger portion of Twitch. That being said, when he does get to do official things, like his Ion Interview, he generally does a really good job.

World Warcraft: Marlamin over Azeroth confirmed?

[Ateo]

Checking in from the con, I am standing near the entrance to hall D, you can see them testing AV, one of the Ads running is a wow ad I can not tell details as there is a pillar in the way but it ends with "coming to Xbox Game Pass"

What leak stated wow is going to game pass? That's the one that is right.

Could not get a pic without it being potato quality.

Rift of Aln isn't the next expansion, it's on battle.net which is already weird, and you can see on the exact same certificate page it was registered 2 years ago.

https //imgur com/a/Wz8XikT

It's also only being registered in early november once a year since 2021, which means it's just an automated recertification. The final nail in the already shut coffin

[AstralNader]

Blanchy is being killed over and over again every time this damned Rift of Aln thing comes back.

Pretty sure that coffin could be 6 feet under and cremated, and people would still find a way to exhume this cert.

Can't believe nobody has picked up on the hints I've been dropping for a legitimate 15.0 leak until now.

Don't worry, multiple people have pointed this out and even more people will come into the thread acting like they found some groundbreaking proof that Rift of Aln is the next expansion.

If the base sub is on game pass, do we still need to buy expansions?

That in itself isn't too bad in a post-Ocho world, it's the ones that double down that get my eyes rolling.

edit: case in point

Might be a Hearthstone thing... I mean they haven't done the Emerald Nightmare stuff yet.

[Marlamin]

Like, to be clear, this whole "omg guys look at this new subdomain" thing has happened 3 times now, all with WoW related terms.

First it was gryphon (the codename for Warcraft Rumble), then it was tempest (internal domain the team uses for build data and as well as the name for other stuff) and now Rift of Aln, which frankly we don't know what it is for, just that it points to HQ and has existed since at least 2021 -and- is under the battle.net domain which means it is highly unlikely to be for a product but is likely an (internal) service instead.

Stop.

Satyr was one of the 01 puzzles

No it wasn't. The puzzle involved "ART" and "two from eyes" which I mistook to mean two letters from eyes, YS ARTYS = SATYR.

But what the puzzle actually meant, as confirmed by the burner account itself was "two eyes" = I I, ART I (f) I (cer), a class.
