Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[Fahrad Wagner]

When u making a new Thread? The War with 11.x patches speculation thread? or this for all world soul saga?

This is the World Soul Saga thread, once TWW launches I'll ask to change the name

If she beat us, there'd be no game

There not true in the slightest.

As already stated, we lost massively to Gul’dan on the Broken Shore during Legion launch.

In the final patch we could follow Xal’atath to K’aresh where she’s attempting to bring Dimensius forth and into Azeroth through some portal or wormhole she’s established between the two planets. We lose in battle to her, she successfully brings forth Dimensius who makes the journey through said portal to Azeroth and arrives in Silvermoon.

My money is on World Revamp 14.0, OC Island (Avaloren) 15.0, Outlands grand finale (if ANYTHING is left in those plotlines).

Also I bet the Direct will Directly (heh) share images of Midnight. Maybe to soften the blow of a "no 11.3" confirm.

I’m going with 14.0 - Avaloren, 15.0 - Northern Kalimdor. After that, I’ve no idea.

I mean there better be no pivot if they want cohesion in their story within this framework, hah.

I wouldn't expect a pivot. I'm pretty confident that it only happened in Dragonflight because they decided to change course entirely to set up the Worldsoul Saga when Metzen returned (specifically, to save Iridikron for something bigger), and now that they're focusing on a single continuous story, all the raids and the megadungeon should be part of that.

That would just be Azeroth being ripped to pieces and nearly everyone dying.

I think Xal is gunning for Elun'ahir which probably is the deepest thing to Azeroth's soul besides maybe Gorribal/The Sword. We repel her, something happens, Sunwell is corrupted, Midnight.

Elun'ahir could also be a distraction ala Sylvanas and N'zoth.

Eyes of green also mean Orwenya could betray us somehow for the Void, especially if there is a Dreadlord connection (bat theme, spybook implying the Life operative is a woman).

[Santandame]

Yeah that was a bad example. But the main point was Xal’atath beating us doesn’t mean the game ends and everyone dies. There’s many avenues the story team can go down to achieve that goal.

I’m pretty set in my belief anyway that Dimensius has been here the entire time in a fragment/avatar form - Locus Walker.

Aman'Thul just keeps getting proven right.

Yeah that storybook was right. Even if he looks like a meanie poopy pants, world trees have a lot of potential to do bad, as we've seen.

And a world tree that grows in reverse (roots) gets close to the world soul and has the potential to mess it up, especially if it gets corrupted by old god blood/magic artifacts full of void.

Folks just 2 days til pre launch what do you all expect?

the eternal login in screen

[Ersula]

They don't need to do that. DF also didn't have a x.3 patch and it still lasted 2 years, TWW will probably last 2 years as well.

Dragonflight lasted 21 months. If TWW were coming out in November there probably should have been a 10.3 instead of this "awakened" nonsense.

I'll think I'll go to sleep early this time then wake up very early.

And play aaaall day

Same here yes. I can not wait to give my soul to the new experience. Hope the story isn't fucking it up.

Yeah, crossing fingers!

[Grazrug]

Yeah, crossing fingers!

I will go fast to 80 so I can create the Earthen. Not sure yet if he will be mage or warrior depending on the aviable mogs.

Going to be leveling my hunter, I THINK, but darn Frost DK main is tempting.

Mogs gotta fit, thats for sure!

lol they didn't even do a promotional cinematic for gamescom. The budget is clearly being cut, I wouldn't be surprised if CGI is abandoned in the next expansions.

Have they... done promotional cinematics for Gamescom in the past?

[Cherry123]

Considering they don't have enough budget for the classic 3 shorts. I mean, look at how much content Legion and BFA gave and how much the latest expansions provide.

Legion was revelaed at a gamescom.
