    Thank god for hotfixes. Although this might need a patch as that is a physics object, hm. Woops.

    Hilarious.
    Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.

    Ah lol I didn’t even recognize this until you said it, but the stairs are basically his torso. Thank god that this is proven fake now and most likely are the terrible Avaloren screenshots from days ago, unless the leaker of the feature just hopped on that wagon.

    I'm guessing it's because of AI.
    I was expecting waaaay more fake AI leaks than that, that's not that bad actually!

    Blizzard poisoned the entire dev team and is withholding the antidote on the condition that they make it to announcement without any leaks.

    This seems like an oversight, it's sheathed on backwards, same thing happens in WoWhead model viewer.

    How do you think the game would run if they put these physics on capes or robes? Is it optimised enough for that?

    I think (especially now thanks to the monk item) that there aren't any proper colliders on the player models, so capes/robes would probably just largely clip through the player right now. They could change that in a major patch/expansion but I don't think it'd work right now.

    They can't even fix clipping for most races

    Oh, so the three screenshots were debunked, majestic.

    The Binary Thing and Shadows over Azeroth, here we go

    Always fun with new leaks while you are sleeping.
    Any reason to assume the pictures are fake other than the third picture with the glitched stairs? It's certainly damning evidence, but still.
    The world revamp dream will never die!

    AI and its consequences have been a disaster for this leak season.

    clipping
    this won't be fixed ever, too much complex work for something that on very few peoples mind, most people don't care about that, i don't think current devs even know how to do this since this is 20+ years old code written by someone else. Also new items appear every month at this point and new character models appear every few years - no way you can fix that. (I not even talking about new character animation.)

    Main thing IMO is how stupid the original leak looks.
    It literally starts with images and then:
    Member of the Blizzcon event realization team. We are more than 100 people.

    World of Warcraft: Oath Breaking.

    We've revised the presentation video quite a bit to prevent a Diablo IV from happening (Only those who attended in person saw it).
    (And yes, the person who screwed up was fired that same morning).

    That's just sound beyond 4chan

And I don't think they are capable of that kind of storytelling anymore. But we'll see in about 40 hours I guess?
    What do you mean by 3rd hand confirmation?

    It's definitely not as simple as that. The model format is still being changed with new additions every few patches so there's definitely a few people who know what's going on and the guy who made the physics engine is still at Blizzard, so for the physics/model side of things it's definitely something they could fix. Whether or not it's worth the performance/development budget or anything like that is a different question.

    someone on this forum with a good reputation (7k+ posts), so not some burner account, said they heard from someone they trust that they heard from someone they trust that the Avaloren 4 zone screenshots leak was real. now of course, since it is indirect, we should take it with a grain of salt. while they said they hesitated to post that information, they felt it was reliable enough to do so. I can't remember their name, 7 or 8 letters starting with S, name looked japanese-ish
