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

[kavikor]

The original 4 are handmade and in engine. Seriously people that compare them to some lazy AI fake that can be done in 10 min need to lay off the copium.


If the 4 screenshots are fake(im leaning towards them being real) they are by far the best fake this game has ever had.




Yeah I'm gonna be honest if Blizzard ever names an expansion "Shadows over Azeroth" they need to fire everyone that was involved with choosing that name.

It's pretty crazy to see how much someone will decry one of the best looking leaks we've seen because they just don't like the idea of it, but then latch onto something pretty clearly fake because they want so badly to be a certain theme, or because they've made up the worst case scenario for what those screenshots mean (4 zone island, no features, boring story about nothing lore relevant)

There is little chance Shadow over Azeroth was placeholder title.
I expect binary guy leak to be real one though.

Didn't Binary guy and Shadow over Azeroth essentially leak the same thing?

[Varodoc]

It was already noted multiple times that "Shadow over Azeroth" could simply be a codename/placeholder title.

It is the least relevant part of that leak.

In terms of basic story beats, that leak is by far the most sensible and logical.

I hope content creators have their cameras ready for the "reaction videos" to tomorrow's announcement. Can't wait to see everyone's faces when those 4 images pop up on the big screen.

Esfand is IRL streaming the entire event and is attempting to do multi-camera views incl. one of the crowd.

Perfect! I'll wait.

I hope for some audible booing if the pictures come up without a big expansion hook to justify them.

I know what you meant but for some reason I pictured them showing the exact same blurry image with the 4 zone screenshots stacked on top, in the Opening Ceremony, to millions of people watching.

[KyleEverett]

I'm still on team "4 pics and Aggo'ra" are real. If they are I'm ready for the confusion tomorrow.

The only reason people hate the 4 images is because they created a false "fanfiction/head canon" expansion in their heads and refuse to see past it.

[Ferlion]

Do we think there will be recordings of everything?

Ditto.

Should be fun!

[Pacca]

I'm 100% sure Catastrophy349 created those 4 images

The entire event is FREE to watch LIVE on YouTube. Check it out on the Blizzard Entertainment YouTube page. As for recordings? There will be TONS!

holy carp! that'd be a sight to behold.

I want their entire presentation video to be recorded on a blurry/shaky camera in a dimly lit room.

Feels that way. His comments are the most uninteresting of the thread anyway

Yeah the same thing happened with Dragonflight and Shadowlands.

[TheramoreIsTheBomb]

Maybe Shadow over Azeroth is the roughly translated version from one language to English?

My comments are "uninteresting" because I like the images, believe in them, want Avaloren to happen, or you just can't stand the fact that they "may" be real and my belief in them bothers you?
