Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Super Dickmann]

I'm kidding with the jabs anyway. But really, I guess. SL for me was the jackhammer that went deeper than the stone underneath the bottom. It's like addiction. There's a trap door underneath your last bottom if you keep using!

Going to make a "bold" proclamation with the Cypher Cipher of the First Ones that it won't actually be translatable for max player retention. There won't be any actual key or method of working it out via anything simple like a Caesar cipher or any variation. You will solve it WHEN WE TELL YOU you've solved it.

Oh, I know, I'm taking the piss. The main thing is that they decided to wreck Sylvanas in a different way to BFA, but most of what happens can safely be bundled off to a corner.

I'd be shocked if there was a ci/ypher at all. I thought it was just what the grind was called.

Double legendaries in our future.

Also with this now confirmed as the last patch it's time to really start the 10.0 speculation. Pick apart the features to see what's the next Horrific Visions > Torghast, to find the hidden dataminings left over from the internal build of 10.0, to once again point out that those revamped Old World buildings have no use.

[Raetary]

so, was the leak kind of right??

None of the leaks were right.

The only thing they were "right" about was the zone name.
Which we've known about for ages as it got mentioned in the 9.1 campaign.

[Zexaniro]

Beyond the zone they revealed very, very little about plot. Wonder why.

because the plot will be locked behind months of timegated story ofc. they more or less say this in the video

[AngerFork]

Level 60 Character Boost already? I thought we'd at least have to wait for the pre-patch announcement.

I don't want to say anything, but why does this fake logo look better than the official one? (okay, that's subjective)

[Hyrja]

Hey guys, heres a mediocre patch. Please buy our new boost!

[Makabreska]

That Chinese interview translation is godlike:

"We hope to take care of all players, whether you are a rice player, a group player or a PVP player."

"But as long as we can To fit the story line, we are still willing to increase the fun of the game by adding Orange Wu."

[Aeluron Lightsong]

No, they are just anticipating a long wait cause every last patch of an expansion goes on longer then most.

[Raetary]

Can't wait for the 2 minutes of story progression each week for 10 weeks.

[Hitei]

When is the last time that any major patch progression has been timelocked for months? It is typically 3 weeks at the absolute most.

Old World revamp but so much time has passed that you need to learn how to talk to Azerothians again.

Ha ha, good meme. But actually I need to see this little creature in action.


Just reading about it makes me think "NPC Companions" and that makes me think of FF14's Trusts or Bioware's Companions.

Shadowlands = 1 patch per year.

This is the new normal for WoW

[Ersula]

Sylvanas was really like "I may be weak, but someday I will be strong again & Torghast will always be bad content"

[micwini]

I don't want to say anything, but why does this fake logo look better than the official one? (okay, that's subjective)

It could have been an early version tbh. The names mean exactly the same.

"But as long as we can To fit the story line, we are still willing to increase the fun of the game by adding Orange Wu."

As a rice player I am looking forward to orange Wu.

The Titans did not create anything. They were just born before Azeroth and started to play and order reality.

What, good portion of the playable races are of Titan origin. Aggramar is responsible for the creation orcs and ogres.

[Khaza-R]

Oh I forgot, players might get not one, but TWO grinding systems. First is the likely Cypher of the First ones and then, there's the whole "discover a way to resist the Jailer's dominating magic"

Oh boy

Sounds like another legendary cape to me.

Why is everyone polarized to the "covid didn't delay anything" or "Everything will be delayed 9 months from now on, forever" stance? The truth is very soundly between these two ideas.
