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

[Keyalios]

Weird website won't let me go to page 2568 despite saying it's there. Let's see if this fixes it.

I think I'm getting a cavity in one of my lower incisors. Underground expansion confirmed?

[NikolaiShade]

I don't think it is Avaloren, but I have to say I'm surprised by the hard rejection of it from MMO

Personally I'm all for avaloren, just what i saw so far is a little meh

Not a revamp + the "new" models look ass and it's annoyingly reused. Nothing about it looks new.

[Izalla]

Ooof I missed this but honestly it would be interesting, to a degree, so long as it gets reversed. We have examples of intelligent individuals in unintelligent races- namely in Northrend. Then we also have... less intelligent Goblin offshoots. So maybe we could get one like that.

Or even find a group of Goblins who never evolved and see what will happen if they devolve.

Tinkers added to the game but goblins have devolved and are no longer capable of building or operating their tech. Available to all races except goblins.

[Ferlion]

Because Avaloren sounds a lot like BfA 3.0, DF being BfA 2.0.

Just so bland.

But BFA had two of the most requested places to be visited ever.

Kul Tiras was so heavily requested they made a "It was turned to slag" retcon/joke/ thing, and the Troll fans have been after Zandalar since at least MoP.

[Chickat]

Good job Blizzard.

Even if 11.0 leaks tonight or tomorrow, I think that it is an achievement that 20 hours away from the reveal, we have nothing.

I will see you tomorrow when this forum explodes. Cannot wait. I am positive that we will be happy tomorrow.

Team world revamp this might be our moment

Yeah I almost want to leave this thread until opening ceremony at this point.

From what I recall, that's what happens when a post or two is deleted causing things to shift and so the page doesn't actually exist for the moment.

Guys i'm a setup crewmember for Blizzcon. I just took this picture of the stage. Thats metzen on the right stage. He was rehearsing saying how we're getting Tinkers and a World Revamp as well.

Nah, not buying it. Everyone knows the real pictures would be shakier and blurrier than this!

[bruxx]

Moving on from the images, I do hope that regardless of what gets announced tomorrow, more people are happy than upset by it.

For sure. Whether the expansion end up being bad, mid or good, the blizzcon announcements always end up being hype af

[ercarp]

Well, I'm off for tonight, night all. Don't try to rely on the spreadsheet for leak updates for the next ~7-8 hours or so as I won't be awake during that time.

Knowing my luck, all the big leaks will of course drop exactly then.

[Myrrh]

Website is doing shonky things, yeah. Incognito seems to make it work.

There was nothing wrong thematically with BfA. Just pointing out that DF was already BfA 2.0, and now we'd be getting it again.

If the Avaloren leak is right, we'd be going to a new continent/island that has 4 outdoor zones with varied environments and one underground zone. Sounds familiar? That's DF.

[Keyalios]

Tinkers added to the game but goblins have devolved and are no longer capable of building or operating their tech. Available to all races except goblins.

I would be able to power an entire continent with the steam that would be coming from my ears.

Actually, wait, no. I could play as a Dracthyr Tinker or a Belf Tinker. Okay we good!

I can't speak for everyone else, but I associate the idea of Avaloren heavily with the leaked pictures at this point, and the picture in my mind is that it's basically just DF 2, more than any other expansion was a sequel to their predecessors. Similar premise, similar environments, similar characters, boat rocked as little as possible and a hefty amount of asset reuse.

Obviously it could be Avaloren and something totally different, but even though I've overall enjoyed DF, I want something more bold now. "Systems bad" can't stay in place forever because it was never the problem: poorly designed systems are bad. If the only options are for them to design bad systems or for them to never try and just repeat M+/raids forever, then that's the actual path to maintenance mode more than anything.

[Mecheon]

Whatever comes, the thread was an absolute joy of an experience, along with watching the Hype train from its humble beginnings to the beautiful monstrosity it is now

May everything be Ocho as we go ahead

honestly an AI could easily reproduce this. The lighting and composition are way off for a professional setup, this was just haphazardly made in 5 minutes with a quick prompt, "Photoreal, Blizzcon, Anaheim Convention Center"

I mean, technically, we don't even know if it's limited to 4 zones. We just saw 4 pictures.

And those 4 pictures showed zones that could be from literally any expansion - nothing new or unique about them.

[Izalla]

Its glorious.

Thank you <3
