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

And there are fewer raids AND fewer patches now. So....

I don't know, with the .7 patches it might well be more patches but fewer raids.

He thinks it's underground.

Plot-twist: Blizzard has built a new underground dev complex.

Beautiful. Though if we're going to have two Metzens, why not one for all cardinal directions? (We can count Thrall)

I can make them elemental.

We can call them... the Ele-metzens.

Replace OW logo on metzen's vest with wow logo?

To be honest I see absolutely no resemblence to anything I have seen that is somehow bound to Light force. In fact, as far as I recall, everything that has some connection to light is precisely opposite to void/ fel. It’s never warped or malformed, but rather uplifted, pristine, clean and anything else that goes with a classic understanding of sacred.
Of course, you can assume it might be the lightbound aesthetics, but I see zero reason to take that stance.

On the other hand, the character is pretty much an orc. Greenish skin, strong facial features, massive jawline, orcish teeth. What’s off for sure are the long, probably pointy ears. In fact, if any force that is established in WoW, had anything to do with that, it would be the Fel, since this characters looks like soul-sucked Durotan in Warcraft movie.

Also, it has a red glow in it’s eyes which also suggests fel’s stuff.

But it’s nowhere near the lightbound, and for sure not to state it’s very possible

looks like a mix of orc and drogbar

With the speculation of underground zones plus Azshara An the naga returning, we could get “the dark below” expansion that everyone was deadset on being the 2013 expansion announcement. Imagine predictions were right but off by exactly 10 years lol

No, you just had to actually play the story. Sure, the Horde and Alliance wanted ships. That quickly falls by the wayside when you actually get there, though. The Horde never even gets them and the story shifts to other things shortly afterwards.

Pirates are largely confined to part of the storyline of one single zone, with the rest being some minor sidequests. They're certainly not a focus of the expansion.

I like how you gloss over island expeditions, the fact that 8.2 brought an underwater zone in the southern seas of Azeroth, and then act like the motivating reason for the expansion doesn't matter just because the story develops - the same could be said for most expansions - MoP had little to do with Pandas in the last patch, WoD had us fighting the Legion not the Orcs at the end of the game - doesn't change what their core themes were

Most of the islands are more northern seas and largely irrelevant to the plot. Nazjatar is near the Maelstrom, not in the South Sea. Maybe actually learn the lore instead of just making shit up. MoP and WoD at least had Pandaren/Orc focus in the first part. BfA didn't focus on your supposed theme even then.

Simply amazing

[Sondrelk]

Yondu as the Metzice isnt clear enough. Maybe metzen with an Elsa braid.

Considering the only official pattern the devs have said they adhere to, (alternating between traditional & cosmic/spiritual settings) the Dark Beyond is more likely. Look up to the sky not underground.

Nazjatar is literally in the dead centre of the map. Are you aware what the maelstrom and the well of eternity are? The only thing in your entire argument that you’ve managed to get right is that Zandalar is in the South Seas, so well done for that.

In fact, you mention island expeditions. Just 3 of the 11 islands are in the south seas, the rest are in the north.
