    Real Expansion Leak

    Hey, all of you tumblr deviantart fanfic writers with your totally true """"""""""leaks""""""""", you wanna know how a real expansion leak and the response to it actually looks like?

    Well take a look at this thread right here https://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1381172-Real-Warlords-of-Draenor-Leak-Inside


    That's how a leak looks like. Someone saw a picture of the official BlizzCon powerpoint and took a notice of it, there is no ultra specific information, just what he could remember from seeing the slides.

    Noone belives your fanfic and deep wishes and speculations. And no, just because Asmongold read your thread on stream it doesn't mean your creative writing asignment is actual leaked expansion info.

    your uncle doesn't work at blizzard, grow up

    Not half as cringe as the people who actually believe they might be real.
    It just feels like I am in the middle school cafeteria again and everyone is talking about what the next call of duty game is, because their dad works for activison.

    You see, my dad actually works for Blizzard so.... the next expansion is "The Dragon Anus"

    that leak was actually pretty spot on. looking at the date I am pretty sure it was before the announcement at Blizzcon that year... or at least I think it was

    That's because it was a legitimate leak
    and all the info that doesn't match up with reality, is because WoD had many cut features that were actually proposed in their BlizzCon reveal (the stuff like Shattrath raid)

    so the question I have now is that if Blizz employees were willing to leak stuff back then... why aren't they willing to leak stuff now, when employee sentiment must really be negative as opposed to back then when it was somewhat positive, relatively speaking anyway

    I doubt they were willing, they definitely have some hefty NDAs placed upon them. That's why it's called a leak. Information slipped through the security.
    I doubt a legitimate employee ever thinks of leaking stuff, because they fear the legal repercussions.
    So if there are any leaks, it's mostly by persons who weren't supposed to see the info in the first place. Or when technology fails (that's how Hearthstone leaks often happened, when someone accidentaly reveals sheduled info on a website sooner than they were supposed to).

    Of course there is always the case of "disgruntled employee", especially after what happened with Blizz the last few months, but those people are also heavily binded by the NDAs, and any ex-employee would be a suspect for any actual leaks. So once again, they won't risk the trouble.

    When you know the expansion is ending with a patch people move on fast. It was the same with 8.3.

    The funniest part of you linking that, is 90% of the people in that thread who instantly said "Not true, nice try, this is such bad fan fiction, not real!" are the same ones still doing it on leak threads

    We don't really need complaint threads cluttering things up, nor is this really the place for such. Closing this.

Well, we can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, and we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, and we can do you all three concurrent or consecutive. But we can't give you love and rhetoric without the blood. Blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see." ― Tom Stoppard, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead
