    The thing is that he previously talked about everything that for sure is going to be announced:

    - Warcraft 2 Remastered.
    - Warcraft 3 Reforged 2.0.
    - Warcraft Rumble for PC.
    - Hearthstone content (with the possibility of HS 2.0).
    - MoP Classic.
    - WoW HC and SoD news.
    - WoW 11.0.7 release date.
    - WoW 11.1 reveal (he also says that Harronir as an Allied Race and the Brawler's Guild will most likely be a part of this patch).

    So all those things are not the big thing, which is pretty obvious. Still, it narrows the possibilities.
    Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.

    He talked about Warcraft 2 before or after leak? Because rest is something everyone and their mothers expect for weeks (or at least consider as strong possibility).

    After obviously.

    Exactly, all these things are expected. Hell, even if we get a new spec for shaman, new hero talent trees, or even a Tinker class, all would be kind of expected, and definitively not something as big as this guy is making it out to be.

    So is has to be something else.

    Don't see why it has to be something completely unexpected. Or for that matter, why something that changes WoW forever cannot be something we are already aware of as a possibility.

    Druids for everyone would change WoW forever, despite it being a known thing for ages.
    WoW Remix: Legion returning alongside confirmation we will keep getting these would be a big change for WoW. Again, despite this being something we the players should have been able to guess for ages.

    Housing is probably the only thing I can think of that is actually as big a deal as people are making it out to be. Something which is possible to get this expansion. And which won't take 20-30 minutes to talk about like what we might have gotten at a dedicated Blizzcon panel. But even then, I think that is unlikely compared to this being the usual advertising that we have gotten before for stuff like Plunderstorm and what have you.
    The world revamp dream will never die!

    Yeah. Something that would be huge for people who haven't really been paying attention to WoW may well be rather mundane from our perspective.

    The thing is that we are, presumably, talking about the biggest event in the Warcraft franchise since WoW. So no, Druid for all classes is a fairly minor feature IMO, and they seem to have backed down a little in that front.

    Legion Remix? While cool, we already had MoP Remix. Same thing, different expansion, hardly something as big as this supposed announcement would be.

    Housing I could buy, but again, we are talking about the Warcraft franchise, not about WoW itself.

    I do want to agree. It is the 20th anniversary after all. I am more so looking at this from the point of view that it is a 45 minute long pre-recorded video that is not just going to talk about new stuff coming to Retail, but also Warcraft, Hearthstone, and Classic.
    If it is something huge, then it would probably have to be a tease about something that will be elaborated on in the future.
    The world revamp dream will never die!

    If we're talking about the "special announcement"; that's lumped into the WoW specific bullet point, isn't it?
    By Blizzard Entertainment:
    Part of the reason is that Battlegrounds are like ducks.
    My Nintendo FC is 2208-5726-4303.

    I feel like you're asking to be disappointed.

    A new class every 2 expansions is consistent with Blizzard. It could happen. Didn't happen between Legion and Shadowlands, though.

    New class is Thraegar, unlocked after 11.2’s Worldcore raid.

    /s but also not really

    But to make it more exciting, every abillity has the word "diamond" in it.

    I see we're still struggling with the idea of going in with lower expectations. Personally I'm expecting a pony or a yacht.

    So it isn't consistent, then.

    Patterns exist until they don't. We never had a brand new spec added mid-expansion either but then suddenly, we did. All things are on the table.

    If Tinkers are announced I am alt-tabbing back to this thread at the speed of light.

    If we are thinking big, I only see two options:

    1- WoW for consoles.
    2- A new Warcraft game (non mobile).
    Biggest announcement?

    Maybe a preview video of Midnight and TLTs development? That...or better yet, one of two things:

    1. World of Warcraft animated series (Where the main characters are interpretations of the Champions of Azeroth).

    Or 2. Confirmation of an entire old world revamp.
