Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[ImTheMizAwesome]

In my case something legit leaks always when im about to go to sleep and im missing the party.

[Makorus]

Every time I see this I cross my fingers and plead to the heavens that, for some odd reason, The War Within was a weird standalone and Midnight is bound to deliver us a beautiful login screen.

It's so sad because they could have literally used the Hallowfall gate.

our initial plans are set in motion in the home of the blood elves, but what if we lost their crown jewel?
remember aq? what is above the city that is under? where can we go when one home is lost?
what are we to do about skyriding from eastern kingdoms to the north?
i wish azeroth had a weatherman or two... or three
we don't dig for treasure within, perhaps try looking another direction
an even more glorious campaign... but dont you think classes are a bit... classic?
i don't see race... but i do i eat fresh
sorry flat earthers

there's going to be a large emphasis on housing being an evergreen feature, not an expansion feature

Finally, the WoD style nonsensical sounding leak

This is a crazy take, but something will happen to the sunwell, omg

remember aq?

Sexy buglady race confirmed

what is above the city that is under?

The ceiling/ isle of dorn, depends how far above we are looking... Wait, if we go further up we reach the sky. The halls of valor return!

where can we go when one home is lost?

The shadowlands, to get a seed for a new home.

what are we to do about skyriding from eastern kingdoms to the north?

Come on now, this is a mechanics question it breaks the feel so much I don't feel like answering

i wish azeroth had a weatherman or two... or three

Void-weatherman hero class confirmed.

we don't dig for treasure within, perhaps try looking another direction

World of warcraft : The War Without. Sorry Anduin, your world-soul is in another castle.

an even more glorious campaign... but dont you think classes are a bit... classic?

Classic+ confirmed with extra classes

i don't see race... but i do i eat fresh

Lightforged Tuskarr

sorry flat earthers

Hmm, this one is very subtle.... A raid set on planet earth, where we see it is indeed roughly spherical?

[milkmustache]

It's so sad because they could have literally used the Hallowfall gate.[/IMG]

Even the shot where Anduin is waiting for you right outside the gate during the campaign, overlooking all of Hallowfall would have been incredible.

[Cheezits]

I would cry with happiness if we got playable Qiraji but no, that's a never ever for me.

[Hellspawn]

No but this one is.

I'm 90% sure this puzzle is implying a Tears of the Kingdom esque situation for Quel'thalas.

lets try solve this

first one is sunwell i think , or lothermar (leader=crown)

2. some city below quel thalas , can be the new ve hub ?

4. this one can be the void storm

5 . delves in the sky , idk ?

6 . something who changes classes more, expanded HT ? multiclass ?

7. rework of some races , like customization like dracthyr , some either get fused

8. azeroth other side

ops i forget about 3. skyriding , probably a way to connect the continent with the EK

No way that's not going to be used for Northrend.

Oh yeah hopefully they saw that people didn't like it and give us a good one with Midnight.

The Sunwell would be great. Like, why wouldn't it be the Sunwell?

[Khaza-R]

The naga prophecy does say Azshara will rule over the skies as well.

[D45]

talking about nonsense. Do people still think Northeron or Lordaeron will happen? that is more delusion than the talk about if the CGI art is AI or not

I think its going to be either over the top or just very basic Quel'thalas and Zul'Aman maybe even just Silvermoon and Sunwell under siege and portal to somewhere else to stop this invasion OR in the worst case scenario they will just destroy Silvermoon in cinematic for luls can you imagine that?

[Makorus]

I could see the gates of Silvermoon breached open with a huge voidstorm in the background.

The /s is for sarcasm.

Even I, a Northeron truther, am tired of that conversation. This one about the potentially AI wallpapers is getting fairly close to the same level of redundancy.

You know what the TLT login screen should be? Literally the exact same one as Wrath but with Ulduar instead of ICC.

[Santandame]

No way that's not going to be used for Northrend.

I agree with this.

You have Azjol Nerub and Harrowsdeep for beneath the earth, possibly even Vrykul catacombs beneath Howling Fjord.

In the sky you can have the Halls of Valor as a max level zone, or even have Odyn raise the entirety of Ulduar to the sky.

I'd be very down for Quel'thalas becoming a continent of floating islands, but I suspect many would be unhappy

Litterally just the exact same as Wrath, but with Aman'thul roaring in the background instead of sindragosa

I predict (and hope) that we will get a Ulduar that got ripped out of the sky (and possibly connected to Halls of Valor?), along with just chunks of Northrend being ripped out (maybe because of the Titans arrival), revealing Harrowsdeep and making it easier to access "proper" Azjol-Nerub.

I just love flying islands.

[Wangming]

No Minutes to midnight spec? Would be fitting.

The name would be awesome, yes. But MtM wasn't that classic edgy demon hunter type of nu-metal.

- - - Updated - - -

that "disproof" of the armor is laughable. that one leg is just slightly turned. there is no split. and the gem glow is supposed top be what?

As for Lor'themar phoenix regalia. Perhaps they decided to update his looks, make it less phoenix, as that look was heavily tied to Kael'thas. As it is obvious it isn't the same look (just look at the cloth split int he front. in the old style it just split in two, in the CGI render it has something in the middle)

And it wouldn't be the first time they update a characters looks. Postergirl Sylvanas is the prime example of that



So, why shouldn't Lor'themar get an upated look? Like Bolvar got an updates look, or Anduin, or any other characters that got a CGI appereance

I love how Sylvanas got an update in Wrath, only to get a completely different one in Cataclysm.
And damn, she still looks hot.

He better be flying across the screen by flapping his arms before that.
