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

[ChairmanKaga]

I haven't noticed earlier in this thread, has there been much speculation about which villain's ghost we are going to shove unknowingly into Tyr's new body?

Are we going to?

[ChairmanKaga]

I mean it's like a Chekhov's Gun for the expansion. At some point we'll be tasked with trying to upload a copy of Tyr in there but the PCs will be duped.

I would argue it's more likely we download the correct Tyr, and he turns out to have his own agenda opposed to fleshy mortals. The writing is on the wall with all the journals detailing how Tyr really isnt happy about rebellious elements.

I would rather fight Odyn then Tyr of the Titan Keepers if we must.

[Revamp Man]

Doesn't a certain void entity still need a body?
Also we are going to neltharion's secret base soon and I doubt he didn't have something ready for his death

Yeeee, nothing like fighting Odyn for the 3rd/4th time :v

Honestly, I don't think fighting him again is a problem in itself on account of that the context is wholly different from the first two times. However, I do think that killing him off would be a mistake. WoW needs more recurring villains we don't just mow through in a patch. Azshara is a good candidate for one, Odyn could be another. He's one of the few characters left with any nuance.

I just don't really see Odyn returning unless they intend for him to be relevant to the Avaloren plotline due to Avaloren suddenly being reachable by us adventurers leading to Odyn gaining access to take revenge on the denizens of Avaloren.

Honestly, with how smug Void and its followers are this expansion I wouldn't really be surprised if Tyr did turn purpley as a way to signal that things are more messed up than we think.

But, at the same time I feel like maybe lets' not continue tired tropes and instead have a character vehicle to tell the story of the expansion through.

[ExiHext]

With all this ingame lore stuff about how the beings of order were not absolutely honest to us about their intentions and Azeroth's past and a potential conflict with one or more watchers, how will our relation to the titans change? Will they become opponents? By no means I expect the void to be our saviour, they have quite f*cked up plans theirselves I guess. Are we in for a shake-up of our "gods" themselves? Will it be "inhabitants of Azeroth vs. everyone else" in the end? Not sure where the current storyline will lead us.

Admittedly, I feel remarkably cynical re: the prospects of the Medivh cosplay. Unless it comes with a full set beyond the cloak and hood, I highly doubt we'll get to actually have Medivh's iconic mantle and that the cloak will be no different in shape or style than the capes we've already had. I'll be quite overjoyed if it isn't the case, however, as we're long overdue for an over-the-shoulder mantle-type back item.

Dont want to burst the bubble, but lets stay real.

This is probably not going to be what medivh actually wears, think about legion mage recolor or something like that.

Everyone wants better cloaks and stuff, bur I dont think this is it.

I agree, that its probably not going to be what people want.

If its a choice between that and "Tyr bad" well yes of course.

[Makabreska]

If its a choice between that and "Tyr bad" well yes of course.

And why do we have to have this choice in the first place? Enough with the keepers becoming our enemies.

[ChairmanKaga]

I would like it to play out like we don't need "gods" anymore.

I rather not get rid of the keepers so no thanks and this whole "Its all about mortals" has been going on for awhile.

Are the Keepers gods? I was assuming the other poster was talking about the absentee Titans themselves.

[FossilFree]

I enjoy Dragonriding way more than I expected, it being removed in 11.0 is enough for me to unsubscribe.

I can't go back, I WON'T go back! Old flying is terrible compared to dragonriding. I hate going anywhere outside the Dragon Isles now.

Isn't this word for word what Medivh said in WC3?
