So now we're supposedly living in a world where easter eggs, developer interviews, and in-game mentions don't build hype around a character, place, or event in WoW?
Interesting.
If Chris Metzen said at BlizzCon that they would like to do some Avaloren content in a future expansion, that's a build up.
Unfortunately it's doubtful that he'll ever say something like that.
He said it about Pandaren and Pandaria though.
Personally, I don't mind them not having the live Q&A. I don't need or care that you're Lemmywinks the Paladin from Stormrage and that you're in the GoldenGirls guild for the last 15 years.
Ironic Guild Names are funny though. Like i would be more down with Q&As if it wasn't just a bunch of nervous nerds stating who they are. Some guy who introduces himself as ChadlyClassicOnly of the Female Draenei of Goldshire Guild is going to make me laugh alot more than some dork telling me he is with a guild for 15 years.
Q&A is always a bit cringe and I find the questions asked are rarely good, so I'm like "alright". That being said, Blizz doing interviews on their own isn't much better so...
I’m looking forward to spending a lot of hours in Avaloren! Looks great. Can’t wait to see the features.
Honestly I've always thought it was just straight up weird when people spend that much time in one guild. I fully grasp that is probably a really unpopular opinion and I'm the weirdo but the people that have been in one single guild for that long how do you do that? How the hell do you grow as an individual and be in a group with that many other individuals and not be like nahh we've clearly outgrown each other for that long?
Yeah it's only been mentioned once, you're right. But the anti titan set up with irridikron, avaloren filled with titan heretics, Tyr failing at keeping a green dragon from flying too far west, and us ressing tyr all points to avaloren, not undermine of all places....
Listen, I want tinkers really bad too, but I think you're reaching waaaaay to far.
That's like predicting we're going to fight the legion in northrend instead of argus.
Someone keeps Tinkering with @Teriz brain and we keep ending up with wackier versions each update. Soon he will just post in the thread saying 'Tink' and nothing else.
I don't like non-live Q&As, they choose the questions to suit them without taking any risks.
Honestly they lose no matter what they do in this situation.
They don't do any Q&A. Everyone mad
They do a scripted Q&A. Some mad
They do the same old Q&A. Suits mad.
I def think the middle ground between Out of Season April Fools jokes and nothing is scripted.
Coincidentally Anduin is the star.
lmao @ bellular's chat freaking out about an unconfirmed leak saying 11.0 is doomed to be mid because of a few screenshots
