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

[Mecheon]

so basically youre saying they gave us unfinished expansion with superb amount of potential tossed down the drain.
Same as with SL lol

SL could literally live of glory of 20+ years of warcraft characters. Instead they decided to give us gender confused palegos and pixar fairies.

No, we're saying you don't pay attention to the story. You're claiming a bunch of C lister characters getting the attention of C lister characters is tossing away potential? This ain't Warlords where potential was tossed away. SL had no hope as it was trying to be Planescape the setting which is a notoriously philosophical, 90s setting that is far better to read than play in

If you don't like philosophy then, sorry, SL being based on Planescape was always going to be poor for you, because that's the philosophical D&D setting and Pelegos would fit in fine (better him being the new arbiter than sylvy though tbh). If you don't like fairies then uh, the fantasy genre ain't for you, mate.

like they are capable of answering to any of these stories.

instead, they decided to abandon the expansion and cut it short.

I feel like the whole point of the expansion was to deliver the tree and the Aspects their powers again. If that, then it’s not really cut short.

We do have the name of the preorder mount, which points solidly to Khaz Algar. So, not totally nothing.

And we know Algar is related to the stars, thanks to Algalon and Rygelon showing the source of the Titan root words for their names.

New zone leak.

The texture resolution and stone objects all look a lot higher definition than what I would expect, but who knows. The general vibe, tree canopy and all is similar to the first screenshot of the set of 4, but I'll not buy into this, just looking at the quality. It does look strikingly more drawn than anything at this resolution. Everything does. Almost like somebody uprezzed the League Artstyle and then mixed it with the WoW Artstyle.. which frankly, would probably be where we'd end up if they did another round of visual improvements to the WoW Art style.

This is straight up AI lol, zooming in shows it clear as day.

I agree. Once you zoom in the plants on the rock on the bottom right looks like it is just smeared on when you zoom in.

Honestly if that hadn't happened this expansion would've been a complete waste of time.

People keep saying this but Dragonflight has only been out for 11 months. It's only half over. If it really does end in August you have ever right to say this but that's highly unlikely, statistically speaking.

It's hilarious, according to him we should've concluded:

The faction war in Vanilla
The Legion in TBC
The Scourge in WotLK
Old gods in MoP
Etc.

And that's just the main storylines.

[xanderd]

Little more than 3 days to go. We have come a long way from arguing if a thing is or is not a drogbar.

[Bsirk]

While there's all the rest of it, that's just the one thing that immediately caught my eye as being totally out of the ordinary. It just looked so aberrant and immediately-obvious that it seemed more relevant than everything else.

After reading your reply I go back and read mine and I seem like a smartass. It wasn't intended I'm sorry about that. I agree with the boxes as well.

I always forget palegos was a character because by and large outside of Denathrius the shclands characters were just dull.

It really confuses me that people remember such a bland character. It's like Bluther. Or Baine.

You kind of just forget they exist

I will never forgive them for making Baine Udder-ly useless (god forgive me ).

I thought Pelgaso was ok

Eh, if you did Bastion he was one of your soulbinds and hung around a lot. The whole 'trying to disguise himself to not be a blatent Kyrian' part of the story was at least vaguely interesting

In an expansion as character starved as SL, anyone who at least had something to them drew folks in

So true, and honestly I barely remember any characters at all from that expansion. I remember some guy with nipples…? Lol

Still so sad about Baine though. After Cairne, he had such opportunity, and ended up being such a disappointment.

Pelagos was one of the few things about Shadowlands I LIKED, ironically. He wasn't a spectacular character but he had a coherent, decently told beginning-middle-end. And ANYTHING being decent in SL was welcome.

Yeah, as someone who was basically forced to go Kyrian on every character at first i was very familiar with him

This is just @22mage22's leak reformatted. And they already debunked themselves, so... 0/5.

Did they? They never admitted they were algar storms.

- - - Updated - - -

Five keys to open our way. Five torches light our path.

It was five, not six.

Oh yeah. Was there one about 6 something at all?

- - - Updated - - -

I managed to decrypt this. It translates into binary which translates into "Prison of Khaz".

Tells us nothing.

What if Khaz is some kind of lost dwarf God or keeper. Or an important Earthen that accepted the curse of flesh willingly.

"The seventh covets what the six hold fast" is a quote from the voidy statue in Korthia. I think everything else talks about five.

EDIT: Forgot the other quote from the statue, "Hidden from daylight, a sleeping flame rests atop the sixth tree"

[Chickat]

Hi 22mage22, how was your day?

This is the one who accurately leaked Diablo 4xpac and said wow was SoA and world revamp.

- - - Updated - - -

Holy shit, it's the Diablo leaker himself. The origin of the SoA acronym.

Yep and they legit have the most accurate leak for d4. So I'm inclined to believe them.
