    Man, Zul Aman already looks 100 times better than Zandalar .... really sad they wasted it on shitty BfA. It's especially jarring if you look at their cool gear compared to the Zandalaris in their bad looking green quest gear without any 3D assets (because I guess someone than thought that only high end gear should look good, with the questing stuff that's used by the NPC's being Cataclysm level gear ....).

    Also, I want a Nalorrak bear mount from that Dungeon!

    Haranir as an allied race is a bit of a cop out, I really love the look of Harandar.

    I am wondering what faction we’re going to be repping with in Voidstorm though, since the other three zones feel pretty self evident faction wise.
    This. lol so many people are upset about things that they assumed an in the end only have there selves to blame are bogging down this channel no discussion is actually happening about the little tidbits they left in the videos.
    I’ve had great discussions with friends an guild members about some of the stuff but not all of my pals are as versed as some of yall in here an I can’t even get a conversation going cause it’s 70+ pages of people crying about white elves an ethereal(this one I am sad about tho.)
    Or even the Amani.

    Thank god the alliance, the true heroes of this game, came to save the horde once again

    I love this non biased game storytelling

    Im so glad we ended the factions so the alliance can be protagonists they meant to be, cause faction conflict, the drama between leaders and tensions that comes from it its so old, like so 2016, true warcraft was always supposed to be fighting cosmic entities lead by the alliance characters

    nope, i'm the opposite, was never more let down. I found postives in every other expansions. Be it MoP, WoD, BfA, SL, DF or TWW. But this is the first time i go with a bad feeling into an expansion

    The only one I am really skeptical about is Voidstorm. I just don't really care for what they showed but it like I said before I am hoping its maybe the last one they were working on and just not fully polished yet.

    I will say, if "low gravity" areas mean they just added swim and swim/walk animations I am going to hate that zone with a passion

    that's slander of BfA. The style of leveling gear, was among the best we had until that point.

    I mean yeah, they were in the wrong for assuming the bare minimum

    Are people still talking about the cinematic looking like AI? I haven't been in this thread since around 3:30 EST of yesterday.

    And it's still flat 2D gear as opposed to the Arathi gear or the new Ethereal sets.

    Whether they are right or wrong doesn’t really matter in what I said everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
    What I’m annoyed about is them using the speculation forum to complain an only complain. Nothing about it is speculation anymore.
    At the very beginning when everything was announced is cool and fine. I get that but we are well passed that now a very little speculation is going on in here. That’s my issue.


    Look the way I look at it is. The feature showcase was kinda barebones. But if I look at this as just a “mega-patch” instead of an expansion since this is a saga. A lot of what’s going seems fine.

    I still wonder whether players would accept the expansion launch raid giving one armour set for each armour type, if the effort put into making that quality armour was instead put into making the levelling and dungeon gear be on the quality of raid gear.
    The world revamp dream will never die!

    Speaking of leveling gear, I find it funny they didn't show new Eversong themed gear. I guess it's just not ready yet.

    OH! There IS a robe on the voidstrider/lightstrider raiment!! It makes the set look MUCH better.

    Very confused why they left that out.

    the point? 3d elements were not common at that point, and mostly reserved to Tier sets. No leveling gear had 3d elements until TWW. remember these sets from SL and DF respectivly?



    or even this set from TWW?

    I'm disappointed at the lack of customizations and very worried about the price of the expansion, but I don't feel particularly optimistic or pessimistic about Midnight. Let it come around, then we'll see.

    That is the most trollish troll I've ever seen. Huge, brutish. Gigantic tusks.

    There's Amani with the more traditional noses in B-roll. Hence people already jumping into Allied Race customization theories.

    Doesn't explain why this nose exists at all in the first place. Unless there's some wild body modification culture we're not aware of for them, it's quite out of place.

    But that's the case already since Dragonflight? The Open World gear basically looks as good as tier sets these days anyways, hence I said it's sad they wasted Zandalar with BFA :X

    Will also be interesting what we get with Midnight, my guess is Bloodelf themed outdoor sets (with void, high, farstrider and darkfallen recolours), which would mean no Amani sets for us (which would make these Amani non-player models with custom 3d assets).

    it could be just perspective? a long nose doesn't look long if looked at from straight on

    I'm talking about the proper outdoor sets, like the Arathi gear, the Ethereal gear, the Emerald Dream sets. All of these are on par with tier sets. I didn't talked about these shitty crap sets haha.
