Maybe Blizzard has learned form Overwatch and realize R34 is a big money maker.

Hope you’re right, and I want to believe it’s AI too, but still none of those reasons are solid or convincing enough. I get the fake/AI feeling also but those reasons aren’t 100%. Again, hope you’re right, otherwise it looks boring and ugly lol.

It's very obviously AI. Easiest giveaway is that it's a square image. Phones don't take square pictures, but the Bing AI tool always outputs square images.

Sounds like something Teriz would write.

Except Tinker isn't limited to only his arbitrary race choices.

Oh, yeah, that detail, nvm.

this is vaguely what I saw. This was a big banner, it was probably abit more zoomed in than I could put together in paint in 2 minutes.

she definitely looked evil, evil smirk, evil eyes. if you can find any similar art of xal'atath or a pale elf of any kind, please tag me so i can confirm or not. this may have been for the darkmoon faire area aswell, i am not sure. ill update if i find out more

Teriz and someone who has been keeping an eye on datamining.

It could be part of some internal damage control Community Manager campaign or something for all we know XD

They will make the same amount of money whether it leaks 1 week before announcement or not, especially if the "leak" is anything we've recently gotten, which have all been rather piecemeal.

Also, only terminally online fans of this specific game are going to be following any of this, which is at best a couple thousand people?

I don't see that happening.

(Not to spoil fun/discussion, sorry if my tone appears that way--just not really sure how else to phrase this response.)

Not sure how say this... but there's no fissure to be seen in the Eastern Kingdoms.

Technically between loch modan and badlands, then like the entire span with the water between dun morogh and Stormwind. But also with a fissure I mean just wherever you want one?

Sounds like something Teriz would write.

If it turns out to be an Undermine expansion with a tinker class, this entire thread ought to line up to apologize to Teriz.

[Woke it Up]

What would be their financial incentive to pay someone to do this?

Blizzard no, but I could see a designer doing it to mess with people in their spare time

[Hitei]

If it turns out to be an Undermine expansion with a tinker class, this entire thread ought to line up to apologize to Teriz.

For what? Guy has been arguing that Tinker is the only logical choice for next class for literally more than ten years.

[Calfredd]

@Teriz about to throw a parade.

But that says tinkers for all so he'd hate that.

[Marlamin]

I'd argue a party is in order instead as next leak season we won't have to hear anything about Tinkers again.

We may look like we're a bunch of hardcore wow drama nerds, but what happens here transpires to content creators, which in turn reaches many other players that are not camping this thread 24/7 like we do xD

Idk what else to tell you, those are telltale AI signs. There are pallets merging into the floor. If that's not convincing enough, you'll just need to revise your beliefs once that image is proven to be fake this friday. I will be at blizzcon so I will report on friday morning whether the set looks like that or not lol

The image quality is too poor to definitively say that, but again, I firmly HOPE you’re right and want to believe it’s AI also. I’m just saying I expect proof to be solid, not conjecture or hope. I don’t need to revise my beliefs lol. Proof is proof, conjecture is not. Even if you are right, again I hope you are, I think you’re claiming “best guess” or “as far as I can tell” as definitive evidence and I can’t do that. A lot of that stuff could simply be bad photo quality and because of that, I can’t accept it as definitive. It’s pretty straight forward lol.

Again because I feel the need to say this abundantly, I hope and believe it is AI also, I just don’t see much that can’t be explained in other ways. That’s all.

Sorry for the confusion but, what's with the datamining part? I may have missed something.

There's been datamining stuff related to island expedition NPC tech that people attribute to maybe a solo dungeon mode with AI group members.
