The War Within 11.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[huth]

And you say Teriz's takes are wild

All the three have in common is being long-bearded older looking humanoid people. They aren't really all that similar beyond that. And for what it's worth, the Primus has both clothes, horns and a beard closer to that image than Havi does.

[Ebonn]

That’s not what Javi looks like

Also why would Odyn be in that form in a cinematic?

Drogbar/orc/Iridikron image all over again

Edit: also just look at that background lol

[Teriz]

If it is an underground expansion, I hope we get an entire zone dedicated to the Blingtron war.

Yeah, I'd even like to see the perpetrator of the war be a major antagonist, akin to Ultron in the Avengers series. Maybe even make them a raid boss.

Are you serious? do you know how boring that would be?

No one has any real interest in Blingtron other than he's a summonable engineering robot that gives pretty much free gold....

[Teriz]

Oh, didn't mean people with claustrophobia specifically, just the visual feeling of somewhat closed, limited space, at least that's my experience. It doesn't matter how far to the sky you can fly with dragonriding, I personally feel more "open" whenever I have an illusion of a unreachable sky above my head
It's just difficult for me to grasp how much diversity one can provide with the underground theme. It's pretty difficult to explain a lushy green forests without a sun. Skyboxes are a very important factor to sell the vibe of a particular zone - green skybox: Legion; morning, sunny sky - a chill, Nagrand-like area; stormy weather - dangerous and unpleasent, etc. Obviously it doesn't have to be stalactites in every zone possible, but it feels like there's only so much you can do.
Well, in the end, you can justify greenery with titan machines / close to Azeroth soul or stuff like that I guess?

Yeah, I could even see an underground zone where the world soul is a star-like energy source for an environment complete with blue skies and varied environments. The concept of underground in a fantasy setting is very open-ended.

No, there's a technological force attacking the blingtrons and assimilating their information and technology to make themselves more powerful. We don't know who they are other than their leader having a weird name.

I mean, I do, and I'm freaking awesome.

This sounds like a side thing and not really relevant to the warcraft world, also sounds very very uninteresting.

I mean, I do, and I'm freaking awesome.

Debatable? I don't know you so to me you're not awesome and I cannot take your word for it, no offense.

[Foreign Exchange Ztudent]

I mean if it has to be underground, I wouldn't mind Blingtron War making an appearance in some zone with a dungeon/raid story.

[Teriz]

Well it's relevant to warcraft because it relates to Blingtrons which are a part of Warcraft lore, and because Blizzard themselves introduced the storyline which spanned multiple expansions starting in WoD until things went silent at the end of BFA. So there's probably something there.

Everything else is simply opnion.

That would be AWESOME! wtf you talkin about?

Obviously taste for content is an acquired taste here...

Anything Underground/Gnome/Goblin is just garbage and deserves to be burned in a fire.

Just goes to show Blizz can feed some people any old BS crap content and they'll gobble it up and ask for more.

[Jodmos]

Was the LoFi beats the promotion that was to be released on the 12th?

You even play Warcraft? Like that stuff has classic warcraft vibes all over it.

Wow, the incorrectness and bias are so strong here… lol.

Calling it bs crap content is silly because it doesn’t exist yet and you have no way to judge it. Also, even if you did, it doesn’t make it crap content, it just means you in your tiny personal bubble don’t like it.

I don’t want a full underground expansion, I hated everything about Zaralek. But I DO want Undermine (mechagon city was dope looking), and I do want more goblin and gnome stuff. Yes please to more awesome fun content! Lol.

Rubbish, I've played since Classic and I've never encountered any of that crap...

As I've said certain things can be sold easily to certain people and there's a word for those types.

Mechagon was garbage as was the mega dungeon, Zaralek was garbage so Undermine will also be garbage it's as simple as really..

Also this is my opinion, just because you don't like it means you can bully me into agreeing with you by calling me small minded bc I don't like the same S as you.

I think you misinterpreted my question. I know it was released on the 12th and nothing else was which is why I asked. I suppose it is but it's not really a promotion for me. Just some wow stuff on the website.

[Valysar]

Havi looks' can have an upgrade too, so it can be him

[Holdodlig]

It can't be from Hearthstone because they use 2D illustrations for their trailers and not fully 3D rendered models.

Warcraft Rumble (aka Arclight Rumble) uses 3D but not in this level of detail, the ones used in Warcraft Rumble look more like toys and action figures.

And this isn't extremely detailed enough to be a WoW Cinematic, especially since Grommash is dead at this point.

So either one of few things.
A. This is just something they made for a bit fun to the trailer and has no hidden meaning behind it.
B. This could've been a scrapped bit of animation for Grommash in HotS.
or C. Something in relation to WC3...

(My money is on A.)

It's Arclight Rumble. They're just going into CGI for the ads like Raid does.

This type of trolling and subjective opinion presented as fact has no real place on a discussion forum. We don’t need more people who think they’re right about everything and the almighty arbiters of what is good and fun.
