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

df cinematic

though DF cinematic was good untill dragons arrived and turned it into true 12+ game with waterfalls, rainbows and sparkles.

bfa

if you weren't hardcore raider/m+ pusher/gladiator level player that have to farm azerite 24/7 to compete - BFA was great. It was a bit buggy at the start of the addon and Azerite gear was kinda uninspiring at the start(there was a lot of feedback on beta about that). I'd say Expeditions failed miserably(locations were beautiful though), Warfronts were okeish but everything else was alright. Corruption was hillarious, i loved it.

[Usagi Senshi]

I was never hardcore so BFA was more fun for me than for others. Still had questionable lore towards the middle and end, and needed some work, but ive always held it to at least average XPac by rankings.

Lore sucked, but man, I did love those zones and the gameplay.

It's an MMO though, so I didn't mind the grind and gameplay systems. I honestly hope,we get another grindy artifact weapon/cloak/etc and titanforging on random drops. Shit was massively entertaining to me.

I like random shit and gambling though. It's how I stock traded the past 15 years and still do. lol

No screenshots

A class called SpiritBorn

Giga doubt

Yeah I didnt look into it further. Could easily be fake as well.

I still like this leak from a thousand pages back. It remembered Dracthyr are supposed to get more classes, and the poster didn't make a thread for it, delete his account or stick around to argue. And player housing being an expansion feature at the start with professions making furniture instead of being able to place down props/etc seems like the type of implementation Blizzard would go for.

We're so close to Blizzcon. I should go to sleep now so I don't miss it lol

It is really good if its real its exciting. I am partial to that journey of the center of the earth vibes. I also like the Ant People. We really do not have that in WoW at all although it would be the first race of Insectoids that weren't allied with the Old Gods.

I feel like they have to do something big for the announcement to go well.

At this point no matter what they announce people will be mad. Its been like that for years.

With that, im off to try and sleep.

Speaking of Shadowlands, did they ever explain in game why the player (MawWalker!) was able to interact with the First One's stone in the Maw that let us teleport out?

They kinda tried to imply that the first ones foresaw everything and placed teleport stones where we would need them. Thats why there are also stones in zereth mortis and kortia. But it's also because we were touched by azeroth or connected to it or something.
It felt like they forgot to decide for the real reason and accidentally left both possibilities in game.

Boy, are we so dry going into blizzcon.

Someone gotta know something by now.

Oh man. No wonder I lost the thread.

Nothing new on the websites as of this morning :| Ocho still there to haunt me though ..

Nothing of substance the last 40 pages?

Me and my buddies played BFA at launch for one week with short sleep periods, the whole day every day, and it was very fun.
Then we faced Uldir and BFA m+ and they weren't fun. We left the game and only came back occasionally on patch days to play a month and quit.
We were basically casuals and Azerite armor, Hearth of Azeroth, Essences were literal dogshit systems killing all the fun.
We never liked them and never will and I believe my view is shared by many casual players.
God forbid blizzard from making another of those systems.
DF is the many steps I the right direction, and I think they just need to make narrative and lore good, keeping the gameplay loop the same plus minus some fun features for 11.0 to be the best expansion.

Real leaks are there

[justwatching]

Apparently there is a lot of buzz(more than usual) about the opening ceremony..

Source:Friend of mine is one of the invited content creators.

Seems like 70-30 we get an actual reveal for the survival game, so that's not surprising.

Schreier said its not getting announced this year and they dont really have any free panel spots for it. When they announced OW there were gaps in the schedule and they had the demo areas covered.

I think they are just very confident in the Warcraft news and obviously Metzen will be on stage.

Plot twist: The new expansion is the survival game. Hardcore rules are now permanently part of the game.

I forgot about that. I was hedging bets on W4, Heroes rebirth, Starcraft, or the Netflix rumor filling the slot after the opening.

[Shizari]

The anticipation is surprisingly building for me. I have no idea what to expect this year! SOON.

Interesting you think thats a deliberate gap. Its 45 min they could definitely fit a panel there but its tight...the other panels all have 15 min gaps between them. But that would then mean a 30 min panel that seems rather unlikely.

[Dismayxz]

Last 11 Hours, nothing new. I feel like if DF is starting a chain of "true sequels", as much as I personally hate touting Content Creator stuff, I just had a Bellular Video on my YT recommended that kinda got me thinking just a little bit. We supposedly 'stopped' Nozdormu turning into Murozond with Dawn, but what if all we stopped was basically him turning at the wrong, fuck, maybe even 'right' time? Not even 40 seconds in, there's the whole Murozond line from End Time "You know not what you have done. Aman'thul... What I... have... seen.." - And we're at a point where it's clearly framing the Titans as not as "morally white" as they were portrayed for a while. I guess in a way even back then the Line would've been read more akin to him pleading to Aman'thul as he's dying. What if that isn't the case and they are turning the intent of that death quote into a different direction?
