Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[Hitei]

I'm sure Wowhead will have a tool ready to go shortly after the data comes out.

The even crazier part is gonna be whenever the crafting lists are available and the entire economy is turned upside down because there's suddenly a significant demand for all these random herbs and ores.

I look forward to the panic.

As for panic, only a few more minutes.

[locketto]

so player housing?

pass, see you

[Hitei]

I would argue the core is far more suited for The Last Titan.

I think that's a reasonable take but it largely comes down to the story they have planned. For all we know part of the "out of control" aspect of Midnight > TLT is that Azeroth wakes up and then there's no longer a "core" to involve.

I do wonder how extensive the furnishing library might be. Because Blizzard is very maximalist with their level design and the variety of doodads is impressive. I think that converting them into profession recipes and vendor lists will be fairly time consuming so I expect we will get several large waves of furnishings during Midnight.

Unrelated but something I've considered several times while wandering around in Dornogal. What do you all think was the point of the faction Embassies? They included setting them up in campaign questing but I think they did not use them for anything, right?

Neighborhoods look WILD.

[Makorus]

Skipping through the Dratnos video, jesus christ, this housing system seems amazing.

[Nymrohd]

I'd rather have a blog than creators

[Marlamin]

So it was indeed a playtest event at they got some b-roll to show off. Awesome.

[Kiivar86]

Wow, the Blood Elf aesthetic really changes it, god damn.

[Joshuaj]

It was housing? Oh shit!

Sneak peak at Neighborhoods too

[Zardas]

Just one reason of many: K'aresh in 11.2 opens up the possibility for more revamped old zones in Midnight.

If anything, I'd argue that this is an argument for K'aresh in Midnight. It is already quite likely that we will get some revamped old zones in Midnight, so having K'aresh also available would be a nice way to also have some new stuff.

[KayserB]

Players housing it is ... Hard pass.

[Cenathor]

Player housing makes me too hard. Pass.

[Foreign Exchange Ztudent]

I still don't understand why some people want Karesh for 11.2 instead of Midnight.

Placing it in Midnight means there's only 1 Major Patch dedicated to any other content in Midnight unless we get K'aresh -> Renilesh in turn means only Base Expansion would have content related to what players would want from that expansion.

We're playing with less room, unfortunately. Unless, they somehow start pushing for additional content and fix their 4 Zone/8 Dungeon issue there's very little room to play with in Midnight for K'aresh to exist. I mean I guess it could be Zones tied to the Revamped zones? I just don't think thats realistic though.

I mean who knows though, I just despise the idea of just randomly throwing K'aresh into Midnight since its one of those expansion concepts where there's so much stuff going on for the Team to tackle and we have such limited room to do anything in it.

[Cheezits]

Can't tell if the zones are instanced or not.

[Khaza-R]

So at the minimum so far there's at least human, orc, blood elf and night elf interiors? Unless I missed some. That's a pretty good base at least.

I'm impressed how much clutter you can place. Some creative types are going to have a field day creating stuff for this.

[Marlamin]

It's looking pretty good. The only disappointing thing is that there is absolutely 0 information being released by Blizzard here, only through third parties. Bit strange.

[Nize]

Placing it in Midnight means there's only 1 Major Patch dedicated to any other content in Midnight unless we get K'aresh -> Renilesh in turn means only Base Expansion would have content related to what players would want from that expansion.

They can always drop them for .7 patches in similar vein to Siren Isle/Forbidden Reach.
