[9.1 spoilers] Arbiter's reason for bluescreen confirmed??

This pretty much confirms it. The Legion, scourge, ARGUS, all pawns.

So looks like the death of Argus was planned by the nathrezime and his soul was most likely intercepted and aimed at the Arbiter. Would explain that red energy that hit the Arbiter.

[KOUNTERPARTS]

This kind of cheapens all of the world-ending/life-threatening experiences we've faced in the past.


"LOL IT WAS THE DREADLORDS ALL ALONG" is a really, really, lame retcon.


Also... "across all realities" line is interesting. Does this imply the dreadlords have been to other timelines?

[Doffen]

Yay, Jain, eh, Mal'ganis is back!

Its deffo Argus smashing down on the Arbiter. The Titan of Death is a logical guess.

[Kayb]

Every time I think the story can’t get worse, it does. This feels like a cop out, ugh.

I mean if the Legion was and the dreadlords were high-ranking legion agents?

Not that this makes it any less stupid..

[Hugnomo]

It was A̶g̶a̶t̶h̶a̶ the nathrezim all along

[ParanoiD84]

Well what can we expect, just lmao.

[Palapop]

It's bad AF.....

So.... all mortal souls goes to Shadowlands..... except for some demons? And elementals? And some other "ascended creatures" who are sent to finish "their task" (you can find that out doing the "Limbo" WQ in Bastion).

BUT THEN AGAIN- World "soul" dies... a titan, literally.... he goes into Shadowlands? Lol....



"Story" is beyond ridiculous now.

Every time I think the story can’t get worse, it does. This feels like a cop out, ugh.

Yep. Blizzard was always bad at story telling (especially when it's "big" story. They are good with "small/zone" stories (e.g Duskwood, Icecrown, Dragonblight... Silverpine... etc, etc...))

But this is BAD even for their standards.

[Mojo03]

I don't think their overall ideas are bad.

But, holy crap, their execution could not be much worse.

[StationaryHawk]

I can't wait for the next expansion when all of this is part of someone else's grand scheme.

[Stardrift]

Puke. Ugh. Yuck.

Seriously. Why is nobody at Blizz telling Danuser this shit doesn't fly?

The Jailer was merely a pawn in the grand scheme of the void lords! The burning of Teldrassil, the gassing of Undercity, the Maw consuming the Shadowlands, all were just cogs in the machine!

But this is BAD even for their standards.

It's probably a side effect of them trying to tie everything together in a neat little bow-tie despite it never being intended. Most likely as an afterthought of trying to prop up the Drag-Janitor because he had absolutely no place in the game and suddenly he needs to be the new BBEG.

It will be the back story of the next expansion's final boss. I mean it's ingenious, every new final boss just inherits the whole story before, making them automatically more dangerous .

[geco]

So Naisha didn't go to hell.

[GreenJesus]

Wait.. so the Nathrezim planned on heroes of Azeroth beating the scourge, beating Deathwing, beating the legion, and then killing Argus this whole time?

[Aleksej89]

Daloser is really losing it, he is trying to improve a pile of crap by adding more crap.

[guisadop]

I'm sort of lost, what exactly does this change? Hasn't this been speculated for some time, now? Maybe I'm missing part of the bigger picture? Is there something about this in the PTR?

Also, who is "Master"? Denathrius?

[Frontenac]

Argus was a Titan though. Why should his soul go to the Shadowlands after his death?

[Houle]

you get a retcon, and you get a retcon, and you get a retcon, AND YOU GET A FCKN RETCON TOO
FREE RETCONS FOR EVERYONE WHO WAS EVER A VILLAIN

Puke. Ugh. Yuck.

Seriously. Why is nobody at Blizz telling Danuser this shit doesn't fly?

/Puke

and the void lords were just pawns in the scheme of a single evil "first one" who betrayed the others.....who in turn was just a pawn in the scheme of the nefarious "before one" HA! bet ya didnt see that coming, did ya playerz??

[Le Conceptuel]

Look at bald guy! Bald guy is the best villain ever!!! Sargeras was just a pawn cuz bald guy smart!!! But random Elf who was never actually that important or interesting and was basically just killed by Arthas and never had any real relevance other than leading a bunch of dead people until Legion is going to be smarter and like one-shot him, which makes you wonder why she isn't basically Caesar yet if she's somehow this smart and powerful! Look at how cool our bad guys are!!!

I feel my brain bleeding.

[TheramoreIsTheBomb]

And they killed Sparky too.
