    Flooding the place with Arcane and Void energy.

    The flood of Arcane energy shredded the Ethereals physical bodies but infused them with enough power to subsist without one.

    But that's pre-chronicle lore, from the CDev days.
    A flood of *Arcane* magic from the cosmological Fel energy realm makes little sense these days.

    That said, i was thinking more in line of the Forge of the Guardian being responsible for that.
    Or idk, Medivh finding out he died and went ahead to scoop up his soul from the eldritch goop and turn him into one.
    Or maybe even Locus Walker being responsible.
    This is kind of an interesting point.

    Xal nukes Dalaran, all the unstable arcane energy is absorbed by Khadgar because Guardian reasons or something, void nuke sends him to the Nether where he finds Medivh or Locus Walker or Karesh or insert here.

    See the cinematic again. "What... Who am I?", a robot just became sentient after millenia of following one edict only.

    And Earthen are so many things, as the entire expansion hammers over and over.

    Azeroth represents freedom and independence. Magni was just freed from his servitude and can do whatever HE wants now. I get the trans allegory or whatever but it just aligns with what Azeroth has been about forever.

    Then, [insert name]. That's who she is.
    The answer to her question is not whatever you want to be, it's "you just awoke. You are an Earthen of Khaz Algar. You are free to choose your own path".

    Then the problem is between the screen and the chair, not the message presented.

    Please, do tell what alludes.
    He’s just complaining about trans people and gender identity.
    All I ever wanted was the truth. Remember those words as you read the ones that follow. I never set out to topple my father's kingdom of lies from a sense of misplaced pride. I never wanted to bleed the species to its marrow, reaving half the galaxy clean of human life in this bitter crusade. I never desired any of this, though I know the reasons for which it must be done. But all I ever wanted was the truth.

    I’ll take the infraction and say.

    he never would he’s a coward just like every one else who marks purposely vague remarks. They complain about fragile masculinity and lack of testosterone but embody those things but being unwilling to actually own there ideas and stances plainly.

    That sounds almost exactly like “whoever you want to be”

    Because it is

    Man, why does expansion launches bring the "weird" peeps out? And why do they think they can win anything here?

    Sometimes, the light of the moon is a key to other spaces. I've found a place where, for a night or two, the streets curve in unfamiliar ways. If I walk here, I might find insight, or I might be touched by madness.

    What weird things are you referring?

    Man Blizzard is already posting the Dalaran cinematic in Twitter.

    Really hammering home that the game launched on 22nd and those who didn't pay the extortion price are just suffering the Delayed Access.

    Yeah, it's not a good look. Though seems inevitable we will have it again in Midnight. People did pay for it, and it does lessen the chaos at launch by having two large blocks several days apart. So the Blizzard has good incentives to keep it going, both from a financial and a programming perspective.
    The world revamp dream will never die!

    So I have not gotten any of the Renown rewards yet that you get from talking to the npc after you reach that level, is that intended for coming at the launch or is it just a silly bug?

    I see more people asking so probably a bug.

    Dunno, I assumed you will get them when hitting max lvl.

    There's a quest with Goblin Prospectors arriving to Opportunity Point, and some of them seem to be coming from the big rock pile, so that's probably going to be the portal to Undermine.

    Bad News: Despite assurances that they wouldn't be, turns out Earthen are timegated. You currently don't just need the level up campaign, but also the max level campaign which is probably a chapter every week for 5 weeks after the season launches.

    I think that I have done around 60% of the first zone and I am already half way to level 75 o_O

    Enjoyed the Dalaran intro cinematics very much. IMO Khadgar is just dead unless we go to the Shadowlands and find him, but who knows.

    I like the Earthen more than expected, especially when they act like machines, they are fun and different in that way. The story and characters are ok for now. I was advancing in the campaign but I found the new Skyriding Races and had to get gold in all of them, so that is taking a lot of time :P

    Also did 3 Delves and they are pretty meh, but until the season starts I think that what we have now is not representative of what they are going to be.
    Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.
