    Day of Blizzcon is always special on these forums. Enjoy it while it lasts.

    Then we hate the announcement.

    Let alone pushing it to PTR which they did yesterday, albeit without a public client yet.
    We also had mm 2? 10.2 builds pushed yesterday , do we know what they were actually ?

    Man it's always such a downer for me to see things instantly talk shit about things I think have potential and could be great lol. Hate the internet :P

    Early WoW portrayed them very benevolently because in canon we basically only had the Dwarves as a source of information, and they revere the Titans so of course they seem super.

    We're now in much closer proximity, and it makes sense for some of the veneer to fall off. Very 'don't meet your heroes' type stuff, because they're probably not everything you build them up to be. This tracks very closely to IRL mythological pantheons like the Olympians - Zeus for instance was a badass, but also a giant douche.

    Ulimately a matter of personal preference in story telling though, so w/e.

    In general, I agree. I think there should be good, bad, and in-between deities. It plays closer to real-world myth and folklore.

    My main grievance with Wow was that they had established canon they ignored. Chronicles was meant as an objective account of the universe. In order to justify the new story direction they ignored previous work.

    However, I would say that the moral framework of some deities (not all) and mortals wouldn’t be that distant. Deities in religion and myth bring/embody knowledge, ideals, morals etc. so their compass shouldn’t be that off from mankind. Just on a grander scale. Unless that is what you mean by framework.

    The doomposting before anything is even announced is what takes the cake for me. We have truly ascended.

    Ocho was a false prophet and the reason we have no high end leaks. We should desecrate the grave as a sign of public disavowal.

    I think I'll be okay with almost anything as long as those 4 screenshots don't turn out to be real, because that would be a very boring expansion (at least visually).

    They skipped a few Seasons of Mastery. 1.15 is actually called Season of Mastery 8. OCHO.

    I think I created the Sailor Twyft avatar during the BfA hype thread (South Seas, pirates and stuff speculation) and have been using it ever since. Been quite a while

    I think they would use 2.5 as a basis for that then. I personally dont think its anything special just more changes and fresh servers probably out in December since its clearly hitting PTR next week.
