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

[Nymrohd]

Well Tiamat is always a fun fight to have.

[Nymrohd]

Pretty much. I don't care for Chromatus as a villain. But I want him as a boss fight

This year Blizzcon won't have much to announce outside of Warcraft games since both Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4 are still fresh, and AFAIK Starcraft doesn't have any new projects in development, so unless they reveal the Survival IP the event will focus mainly on the next WoW expansion, HS expansion, and probably WC Rumble.

Last live Blizzcon was in 2019, so they may simply focus changes to the format.

I could see them at least reveal some stuff about that survival game. Maybe not a full blown reveal but some teases.

Gonna go off current topic, if that's fine.

I often hear about Anduin's future love interest.

IMO, he should not have one, be it a straight relationship or not. At best, a supportive partner, akin to what they did with Mayla and Baine and are doing currently with Emberthal and Ebyssian.

Given his current state, he's in no shape to get into a relationship anyway, nor do i expect him to have any relevance to the story for DF anyway. Possibly not for the next one or two expansions either. Mental issues of that magnitude can take a long time to deal with.

Unpopular opinion but they could probably cool it with all the relationships in the future. It seems more about shipping rather than actually creating a story. And honestly, relationships make pretty boring stories unless there's some element of conflict involved.

why would that be considered as unpopular ?

[Aeluron Lightsong]

Anduin fan shipping is stupid, he's straight. I also don't expect him to be relevant until 11.0. (I absolutely hate shipping of two characters who are just seemingly bros. Thats all it is).

Emberthal and Ebyssian.

i think its just an arc to show how different Ebyssian was to Sabellian and Wrathion.

Probably going to announce Cataclysm classic as well.

I’m going to assume 11.0 is going to be new races and maybe the new continent of Avaloran on the other side of the world? Probably a few old world revamps to boot. Those are the safe bets.

More crazy bet would be them announcing a new fourth role (Support) for a few select classes which would fundamentally change group content. That would definitely get some headlines. It would be fascinating to see how something like that would shake up the game and community. In an expansion of revamps… why not revamp how we raid?

This is a franchise about war, not romance. Romance has never - and should never - be a story point in Warcraft.

This.

This a 10000000000000000% !

Romance has been a story point in wow tons of time rather it be Thrall getting Married, Varian being a dick because he lost his wife, Moria and Thaurissan absconding, ect ect ect.

For that matter, how many wars have been fought using it at least as a premise...

[Revamp Man]

About the only thing i can get behind is Xal, and that's mostly because it's not so much being hinted as shouted from mountaintops.

And where is "Sabellian doesn't hear voices" coming from? Seems to me he finds them rather annoying and distracting. Maybe he can't understand them, but he very much appears to hear them.

We see wrathion mention them and Sabellian act like he doesn't understand what he means

Though I mostly just want wrathion being titan powered touched on

- - - Updated - - -

What would be the point of that? She's very much the Bolvar of dragonflight. The Aspect of exposition if you will. And even in being that she fails by providing no real context to the story.
Not that the story of dragonflight really needed her at all, but killing her off wouldn't have an impact very much because of that. If we start killing off every ineffective character we are left with a fraction of what we have.

Her dying would be the final original aspect gone.
She talks about unity but when wrathion asked for her help to do something that we needed to do anyways she went "nah not yet I'm too busy with these eggs" and then we find she's doing nothing

After Ebyssian takes the role of the Black Aspect, Wrathion will surely seek to his boyfriend's needs.

They have him set up for like 5 different ones but fuck me man just let him chill lol

[Hitei]

Anduin fan shipping is stupid, he's straight.

You got a source for that?

Lol, so I guess we're just gonna gloss right over Malfurion, Tyrande and Illidan.

[Hugnomo]

I understand that Warcraft's development of romantic relationships sometimes isn't the most compelling, but to claim it's never been about romance ... like that's just not true. Arthas and Jaina, Jaina and Kalecgos, Malfurion, Illidan and Tyrande, Turalyon and Alleria, Nathanos and Sylvanas, Varian and Tiffin, Moira and Thaurissan, Thrall and Aggra.
