Now to wait for the deep dive of the actual stuff

first for picking up snowbunnies in dornogal

It's over.

Expansion set up ultimately feels unearned after an aimless chapter 1.
Main villain has long over stayed her welcome.
Everyone would rather just get to the end point already with Iridikron and Illidan fighting shirtless in the snow.
Gallywix got killed off in a filler patch cause they had to bump Rootlands up to Midnight as they weren't creative enough to come up with any other zones in the area
Amani gotta be genocided again because they can't think of any actual interest villains for the expansion.

>Now to wait for the deep dive of the actual stuff
What stuff lol there's no stuff

>no helves
>no amani
>no ethereals
i've had enough of blizzard's endless humiliation ritual for OG warcraft fans. OG warcraft is dead and nu-warcraft is just estrogen-tainted slop
see you guys on epoch

when is the deep dive? let's see if this expansion is a buy or a skip

That cinematic fucking sucked

It was cool yo

I've been playing Illidan server horde since when i first started playing due to player population issues. Can I finally start playing alliance human or is there any resource or benefit still tied to being horde?

>>535875339 (OP)
Is Yrel confirmed or is it just more wishful thinking?

>cinematic is a massive warfare battle epic fight
>but it's ugly elves and not handsome, big, muscled, chiseled, sweaty dudes
Warcraft will never be MALE

THIS GAME AND HOBBY ISN'T FOR YOU ANYMORE CHUDS *SNAP SNAP*
GET THE HECK OUTTA HERE *SNAP SNAP*
THIS DIVERSITY TOWN NOW AND WE GOT NOT-MALE-GAZE-APPROVED WOMYN OF POWER AND TRASNGENDER ELFTROLLS *SNAP SNAP SNAP*

I WANT HIGH ELVES
I WANT HIGH ELVES
I WANT HIGH ELVES
I WANT HIGH ELVES
I WANT HIGH ELVES

>first non woke trump era expansion
>it looks like shit

They really fucked up not having some notable character(s) show up here.

>>535875547
>>no helves
>see you guys on epoch
but turtle is the one with helves

Be honest with me bwos ... how over is it?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLzhlsEFcVQ

TIMES CHANGE, WOWO WAWA IS DEAD AND BURIED, ACCEPT IT

>>535875580
it felt unfinished. i wonder if they have a second one like they did for the past few expansions

>>535875686
Why?

What could they POSSIBLY announce during the dev panel to make up for this? Anything? It's looking OVER

>>535875659
bro im a chad chaser and i IWSH it was tranny elves, this is just unwarranted SLOP no one asked for

>>535875693
Anon, blizzard is still pretty much woke. They refused to adapt to the new times unlike other companies.

>>535875653
Nothing confirmed but the cinematic looks like Liadrin cried to the Sunwell and the light decided to just teleport a bunch of Paladins in so who knows who they'll bring back

Cinematic ending was a soulless version of pic related

>>535875697
>thought it might be anduin
>nope, just a nameless faceless armored human paladin with more nameless faceless armored human paladins behind them
EPIC

>Azshara in key art
>Revamped Silvermoon/Eversong
>Could have had Naga as a "main" playable race for both factions, Helves for Alliance and Amani for Horde
>We got fucking Haranir
This is a fuckup of epic proportions

Unpopular opinion: I'm not very excited for the new expansion.

3 raids sounds like a return to form desu

>Expansion is so barren that saving gold on Transmog is listed as a major feature

OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>reddit aggressively shitting on trailer and gameplay reveal
>mods are mass deleting comments now
You love to see it

say something nice to him

>>535875686
Looks like you just made one

im an unlovable incel

>>535875721
depends on the deep dive. se far midnight feels... mid

Ogres in Eversong Woods

Still unbeatable.

Question.
Did Blizzard forget Lady Liadrin is supposed to have Quel Delar?

All I can say is that Zul'jin and Lord Garithos were right all along about those elves. They're destroying everything. A big mistake to kill them too soon.
VENGENCE FOR ZUL'JIN!
HUMANITY IS IN PERIL!

Yrel is definitely coming at the end of midnight so we have a light force to fight in the last titan.

>Amani trolls are just retarded looking orcs with big tusks now
Troll bros? Your response?

>>535875889
Uhmm did you just assume xir gender chuddy? We dont do that no more *snap snap*

It's an orc?

>No High Elves
>No Ethereals
>No Amani
>No Sethrak
>No new class, only one new spec
>No well animated cinematic
I'm not even a doomposter, I'm disappointed because I had hope that this would get me hyped since High Elves and Quel'Thalas are my favorite part of WoW lore since I was a kid playing Warcraft 3.
This just feels like a new patch not a new Expansion.

>>535875697
I'm telling you AI was involved here. This is an "epic" moment that only makes sense for a glorified flowchart doing the storyboards instead of a human being who is going to ask "who?" and not receive an actual answer in the cinematic.

>>535875939
Somehow, the Twilight Hammer returned. Two expansions late when they should've just been behind the Primalists.

There is one thing that has been consistent in wow
No matter how shit the xpac or anything else turns out to be, the cinematics are ALWAYS great.
If not for the terrible lore since Shadowlands, at least for the insane graphical quality. This 2025 cinematic looks worse than 2014's WoD. Hell, it looks worse than fucking WOTLK from the 2000s.
This cinematic marks the end of an age, not only had it terrible lore, the graphical quality just wasn't there
It's the last thing WoW had.

>>535875939
Is Chogall back bros?

I want Danuser back. He knew how to write new stories.

Ending was a soulless version of this kino

>>535875721
The good news is the expansion is a year away so we can all forgot how bad the trailer was.

>>535875974
Wait what the fuck?

BRUH
OH NO NO NO NO

>>535875848
>3 raids
>still only 9 bosses
nah

>>535876029
OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Wow will continue to hemorrhage their dying(of diabetes) boomer audience while being complete zoomer repellent.

>>535876048
Put on your glasses anon

>>535875989
Are you a retarded person

>>535876125
They're shameless

>Prey is just PvE ganking PoV: the gankee
This expansion is literally just a monetized patch.

>>535875848
>>535876014
They did this so 2/3 of the raids can be outdoor encounters with 0 effort
And they can cut the size of the indoor raid in half because it has less bosses

>>535876052
>no Yrel
time to rewatch coliseum of lust

>>535876125
did they forget to change accounts or something lmfao

>>535875339 (OP)
>Ghostlands just inexplicably gone because they didn't have the time & resources to make another zone art set

lmaoooooooo

>>535875939
Please, for the love of god, make them playable

You owe this man an apology

>Windrunner Spire

REALLY NIGGA?

Underrated gem.

>>535876125
They forgot to switch accounts lmao

>>535876052
>This just feels like a new patch not a new Expansion.

People said the same thing about BFA - TWW. All of them still feel like expansions.

>>535875848
>one boss raids
More like "hey lets copy OG and their Trials since we stole their expansion theme of shadow vs light and so on"

>>535875810
literally my belf..

They did the

>>535876091
Faggot, it's gonna be released in February, prepatch is after Legion Remix ends

>>535876125
Damn they really paid some intern to shill for their own game online and the dude forgot to change to a burner account.
How does this get even more embarrassing?

Bros, I'm unironically disappointed. I mean really.

>>535876125
Blizzard really just samefagged

IS HUNTER FUN
I DON'T KNOW IF I SHOULD PLAY HUNTER (SURVIVAL?) OR WARRIOR (FURY)
I DON'T CARE ABOUT META OR WHAT IS GOOD.

>>535876063
it feels like this cinematic was phoned in or like metzen gave the reins over to new blood with no experience
it's funny because even the worst expansions had absolutely kino cinematics
WoD and BFA still give me chills
this was flaccid and toothless

>>535875008
>nothing inspiring or heroic about it.
it's actually insane, when Liadrin went to the sunwell to pray I was just thinking how verbose and insignificant and boring the dialogue was. It genuinely felt weird, like i was a voyuer listening to someone pray irl. then when she came out with all of the paladins, i thought there was going to be a massive reveal and pay off.. some incredibly moment, but there was nothing. they were just faceless drones that she summoned from the sunwell? what a pile of shit.

people make fun of anduin therapy and girlboss sylvanas in shadowlands, but even those trailers had more heart in them. this was just a soulless travesty. it felt like a hollywood shlocky action film made to perform well in china for the bugmen. embarrassing.

>>535876125
>only 1.5k likes per 100k views
Yeah this expansion is a complete flop.

>>535876362
they're only the top posts because they paid for twitter premium lol

OH SHIT

>>535876125
Blizzard employees, do we agree?

Ahhh... blue seas, clear skies and boundless opportunities.

>>535876072
>Somehow, Cho'gall returned!

>>535875874
>>535876029
for sure they won't forget the void elf racial right??

>>535876125
>obama_giving_himself_medal.jpg

Lady Liadrin already overcame her doubt and grief with the Light around WoD-Legion, why does she sound so unsure if the light would help? That entire character arc of her literally already happened, she should be certain in her belief that the Light would help her people...
Seriously, it pisses me off just how much they managed to butcher this character in a single fucking 3 minute cinematic.

which man is this

>only human, orc and elven customization for the exterior of your house
holy fuck, it's truly over

>>535876508
I miss him so much

>brother is a hypelord that gets roped into any game that gets advertised
>loves wow
>show him stuff from the new expac, he barely gives a shit
if they didn't get him they didn't get anyone

>>535876547
This looks nothing like Durotar

>>535875974
>art team carrying!!!

>>535876463
It was off the mark cause it was made by jeets with the help of AI, its why all the Pali's were faceless.

>>535876547
looks cool desu. Is that the new zone or housing?

>>535876214
Bets that it will be chaos compared to hunt trains in OG.

The faceless paladin was supposed to be Faerin but they had to hard pivot and change it to a nobody because no one liked her
Prove me wrong

>>535875874
It'd have been cool if we got Ethereals as a playable race and that was the reason why we're getting free transmogs now because we won them over.

Or well, I guess you could say that because we saved K'aresh all the ethereal transmoggers are doing us a solid. I'll take that.
Although it would have been so cool if after killing Dimensious you actually see 'Transmog costs rolled back in perpetuity' as one of the quest rewards.

>>535876645
>if they didn't get him they didn't get anyone
No we have the biggest hypelord ITT who will praise it to the high heavens: futafag

>>535876619
>its garrisons 2
OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

>>535876029
>This has been heavily requested since the inception of transmog
...It has?

>>535876619
is it open world
>building an orc mudhut in elwynn
so cash

So who the fuck is this?

>White male paladin expansion
>all the browns are seething and dooming
kino

>>535876547
LMAO HORDE GOT COPYPASTED WAKING SHORE FOR THEIR HOUSING ZONE

>>535876619
they have to dripfeed the other ones over like 7-10 years please understand

>>535876605
>>535876783
Looks like a troon.

I can't believe they will force us Classic Bvlls to transfer to this shitty new expac when mop ends. Grim

>>535876713
>because no one liked her
Why didn't the content creators stan their queen?

what does this mean?

>>535876761
mazerunners and metatrannies complained because they spent too much gold on enchants and repairs.

>>535876619
>human orc and elven
so 90% of the game population? where's the problem?

>>535876713
I didn't mind Faerin once you met her in game. And until the cringe Arathi stuff i thought she was nice.

>>535876713
Honestly a very plausible theory. Can't deny that.

>>535876761
>...It has?
Yes. Because fucking expensive.

>>535876029
Why's that a bad thing

>Liadrin summoned paladins from the Sunwell?
Cinematic was shit but are you people genuinely fucking dumb? She didn't "summon" them. They just showed up at the darkest hour of desperation. Its legit a cliche
>character that's molded her personality/life around her religion
>constantly repeating prayer as a form of desperation/comfort
>says their only hope is for the light (god) to save them
>runs to the sunwell, a holy place (church)
>literally on her hands and knees praying in desperation
>forces of man show up at the last second to save the day
Like its first grade level symbolism

>>535876214
>>535876702
I'm guessing there is gonna be some kind of hidden meter that fills as you complete world activities and then you get pounced.

I came here to laugh at you, wowbros.

>>535876898
Sorry that would be elven elven and human

>>535876619
ARe you fucking kidding me

it also looks like 1200 is the starting point in terms of number of items you can place

Many accuse the Chinese of doing it, but I will say that it is actually the pajeets. There is no worse evil than them.

HOW THE FUCK DID THIS FRANCHISE GET COMPLETELY HIJACKED BY LIBERAL WHITE WOMEN

:(

>>535876962
i straight up just raped you in my mind brotha

>>535876991
New World died
Long live New World

>>535876441
i unironically think Surv is fun but there are only like 50 of us playing that spec in the entire world
i haven't played warrior this expansion so i cant compare them tho

>>535876843
She is still and objectively the cutest lady in the WorldSoul saga

>>535876619
>that horde house
I can see its from unused WoD assets
Literally Garrisons 2.0

>>535876934
But none of it makes sense? The light isn't the sunwell. Their paladins weren't made from the sunwell. It's not a religious holy place. Shut up.

Easily to achieve epic moment was wasted just like that. Weird.

>>535876991
Who the fuck cares about this soccer mom shit. Jesus, kill yourself

>>535876619
I literally told you fags it was going to be like this LMAO.

It was always going to be "choose house 1, house 2, or house 3" and then get inside to decorate like a fucking woman.

Imagine wasting an entire expansion on this worthless feature.

>>535876934
that doesn't make sense and if that was the intention, it makes it sound worse

>>535877002
The Chinese know people like cute girls with big tits. If they made it she would've looked like a k-pop idol in bikini armor.

>>535876713
Nobody likes haronir and they didn't give a shit anyway so

>>535876991
It's most likely a score limit. Different items have different scores, like in Warframe. Smallest objects being 1-5, while bigger ones can go up to hundred.

>>535876931
Free transmog isn't a bad thing. Free transmog being advertised as a feature of the expansion is a bad thing. Because they can literally hotfix it in right now. It's free during trial of style all the time. It's not some impressive new thing they just invented.
It's a basic flipping of a switch and they're pretending this is some big feature you have to wait 10 months for? Pathetic.

>>535876352
Yeah it was kinda weird. The religious chanting was neat but didn't feel like WoW at all. Maybe the next D4 expansion got scrapped and they recycled some of it into this cinematic.

it says World of Warcraft®: Midnight will be available on or before June 30, 2026 on the shop
what was the date here for TWW? August 26th, 2024?

>>535876547
WoD mage tower?

>>535876619
isn't that orc hut a canned WoD asset? this entire fucking expansion is just going to be COST SAVINGS COST SAVINGS COST SAVINGS
can't believe some retards actually thought becoming serfs to microsaarft was a good thing

>>535877161
Is Mick retarded?

>>535877256
they said it was going to be 10.000 items as limit, so like actually 10k

https://youtu.be/22Nf00VN0WM?t=69
AHAHAHAHAAH THE WARRIOR FLYING ANIMATION I CANT

>>535877287
TWW's was before December 31, 2024

>>535877160
>NOOOOOOOOOOO HOW DOES IT INCREASE MY DPSSSSSSSSS

off yourself metatranny

>>535877161
the check cleared

>>535876282
If Danuser wrote that cinematic, Light Purified Kil'jaeden would have come out of that sunwell and started poppin voidniggers off left and right.
Would have been kino, rule of cool.

>>535875848
>3 bosses per raid, 3 raids
What? Is that on launch or the whole 'expansion' will have 3 3boss raids?

>>535877097
>It's not a religious holy place
It is now you fucking retard. The sunwell was reborn with light. That's the entire reason it still functions and exists. Its not arcane anymore

It's the reason Liadrins eyes are lightforged and why that's even a customization option for blood elves now. You don't even know the game you play

>>535876619

fuck off sethfag, you can laugh but not with razer's bottom bitch

>>535876934
Dude retards STILL to this day think andruin was mass rezzing his entire army in the BfA cinematic. You shouldn't be surprised these same retards think human or arathi teleported in through the sunwell.

Will you finally accept housing was bad for the game, after the mess that was late DF, all of War Within and now launch Midnight?

is the game back? i saw the trailer and it looked like blizz is actually trying to save the game.

>>535876991
WoD had this woodcutting as well.

>>535877396
No, it's actually not dumbass. Go read the lore and how belf paladins came to be.

>>535876619
they said this from the beginning

>>535877002
Ofc it's not the chinese. If it was the chinese the girls would be all hot. Look at their games. It's probably just americans they're always seething about china.

>scan the thread

>>535876934
But why are they emerging from the fucking Sunwell? Why would they be stomping around in it? Even canonically it's literally in a dead end, the only way they got there is if they were summoned or if those retards were literally waiting there to make a cool entrance.

>>535877024
Its actually fucking crazy how after the lawsuit they have been dropping girlboss after girlboss yasss slay queen characters

>>535876232

that could be a troll/orc hybrid

>>535877159
>just random silhouettes of paladins
I'm going to say either it'd cost to much to animate a load of faces or they hadn't decided who they'd be by the time they had to make the trailer

Does that mean I can fuck my neighbour's wife?

>>535877352
LMFAO

Blizzard employee posts are so easy to spot.

>>535876934
THIS part was the one that could have made the cinematic go from a 7 to a easy 9
but there was nothing, just shadows of paladins, it just made the cinematic worse baka

>>535877392
I'm assuming it's 3 mini raids as the first tier on launch, then 12.1 and 12.2 will have one new raid each. But things could be dire, so all bets are off.

>>535877626
If Maye isn't avatarfagging, he's too busy defending the game to avatarfag

Blizzard just doesn't understand that in order to make money, you have to spend money. They're trashing this game to have a couple of good financial quarters before it blows up in their faces

>>535877002
It's definitely the jeets, they have no standards and will do whatever the brahmin (white employers) tell them to
The Chinese like sexy anime girls with big tits so the elves would have all been hot if they were at the helm

>>535876619
>Spend 3+ years sucking all resources
>Shit out what amounts to three huts

What was the budget of "THE WORLDSOUL SAGA"(tm)?
I thought more than 600 devs were working on it.

>>535877478
save? i though we had over 9 million subs bwo? what's there to save?

Picture it you will the absolute worst leaks imaginable that were posted in this thread.
Now come to the realisation that those leaks would have been preferable to what we got.

The bit in the trailer with the army charging was embarrassing. I don't think there was even 10 models on screen

Anon, that's Microsoft as a whole. They're betting everything on AI keeping them afloat forever and sacrificing everything and everyone that doesn't directly contribute to it.

>>535877719
They just reused the ESO Breton Knight cinematic model

So why does Liadrin look like a man?

I THINK THIS IS THE END
THE ONLY FUTURE I SEE IS BRONZEBEARD, EPOCH AND TURTLE
THIS TIME UNIRONICALLY

I'd believe that if it was Blood Knights and Horde who came to save the day.
Instead it's a bunch of generic Human Paladins.
You know what the Sunwell and it's mother the Well of Eternity have a history of being?
Portals.

>Dude retards STILL to this day think andruin was mass rezzing his entire army in the BfA cinematic
if people misinterpret your lore and intentions with your storytelling THIS badly, it's not a failure of the audience. it's a failure of the storytelling. her going to pray at the sunwell, then having a massive army appear off screen from the direction of the sunwell gives a completely different interpretation than intended. it breaks so many rules of film.

there's a time and place for nuance, like the double entendre in the wotlk cinematic, but this is just a fumble.

blizzard is the part of activision blizzard that makes the least amount of money. the money is in running the 16 cod studios that pump out codslop every 12 months.

500 of those were community managers and social media moderators, to be fair.

i just realized in the little video feature that shows off the new allied race and shit, the first humans you see have nigger hairstyles despite being 'white', one has dreadlocks and you see another /leaning against a wall with a afro.

That really was one underwhelming trailer lol. It had none of the of the peaks needed to be memorable. They ruined the fucking BE when they finally had a chance to show off their actual Savage side that is supposed to differentiate them from other elves. And that whole Sunwell thing, what the fuck was that? Why the fuck did the decide to just have it summon a bunch of nobodies? I mean I'm the sort of fag that loves the unnamed dudes doing heroics in trailers just like this example, all the shit they do in the background is neat as fuck.

Nah, that's a fat Dwarf chick. She looks like Tyrith (female Custodes) from Warhammer 40K.

Why were all the guards and paladins summoned white men?!

>>535877843
All the expansions for GW2 costs over $100 the $50 complete pack only has the first 3 and all the updates

>mailbox and flight path
The first Horde content since BfA... but at what cost?

>>535876934
This moment was ruined by the fact that there were just random faceless people.
Really, they could just have there to be Turalyon alone coming out to help her and it would have immediately elevate cinematic from garbage to solid enough tier.

I actually got myself a little excited for returning to WoW and the Cinematic was good.
Then I looked at the gameplay overview.
Please just fucking laugh at me I deserve it.

>>535878105
OH MY GOSH CANT WAIT FOR MY WORLD OF WARCRAFT MIDNIGHT TM CUP TO ARRIVE

I ALSO MIGHT GET MY WORLD OF WARCRAFT MIDNIGHT TM DARK HEART ORNAMENT PLASTIC THINGY, $20 IS BASICALLY A STEAL
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>535877159
I was 9000% convinced Turalyon was about to stride up and that was going to be Blizzard's 'Yeah we're not turbo woke and lame anymore' moment. Fuck even Yrel would have been fine.
My only solace is that at least it wasn't fucking Calia.

...You know what, no. Even fucking CALIA with her own army of newly risen undead paladins would have been it's own small hype moment compared to a bunch of faceless who's.

>>535876713
Would they need to summon Faerin through the fucking Lightwell? I assumed it was meant to be Yrel's interdimensional light crusade

Blizzard just doesn't know how to make cgi Elf. They are all ugly.

>>535877118
Somehow I had a feeling Metzen wouldn't deliver.
If he was serious he would have done shit day 1
>but le development time! You have to deliver the slop that was already in the works! That's the rules
Cope. You don't need to wait 3 years to start doing shit.
He should have retconned at the very LEAST the last 2 expansions on Livestream while doing a naked dogeza on DAY 1 !

Volunteering to be Prey

The Prey system introduces an optional, War Mode-like layer of customization to players’ open-world adventures. In an opt-in system, players will be able to make themselves into both ultimate hunter and prey. This will add new challenges and activities to the zones of Midnight. We will be hunting dangerous elites and bosses, as well as be hunted by them!

Enabled in Silverymoon’s appropriately named Murderer’s Row, the Prey-related faction is led by Astalor Bloodsworn. Players can enable the feature at this NPC, opening up new dangerous and thrilling activities. When enabled, the Prey feature will allow us to hunt enemies across the new zones, but also open us up to ambushes by those same creatures. This isn’t a simple turn-it-once and forget it system either, as there are multiple levels of difficulty for it.

Normal difficulty introduces players to the system, getting us all warmed up.
Hard difficulty ups the stakes with some modifiers called Torments, but also enables enclosed boss encounters!
Nightmare difficulty increases and adds challenges, where players are expected to die a few times!

All of these challenges have their own set of rewards, of course. From mounts to titles, cometics and, perhaps most importantly, Housing items! We’re already imagining trophies of our hunts adorning our homes!

Progression through this track will be shown via a unique crystal UI element, which will also track how the hunt intensifies as players complete more and more challenges.

There will definitely be some worthwhile rewards to chase here, with the new denizens of Quel’thalas and neighboring zones making some fine mounts and decorations!

thoughts on the new prey system?

I think ultimately people just dislike all the new OC factions and characters they keep introducing. I bet if the paladins that showed up were wearing Argent Dawn, Blood Knight or even fucking Scarlet Crusade tabards half this thread would be basedfacing right now.

A bunch of undead paladins answering the call and providing an assist to their EK horde bros, in an inversion to the WC3 scourge assault on the sunwell, would have been kind of kino desu

>>535879149
you can tell he clearly doesn't care anymore lol

>>535878330
idk a bunch of undead showing up and being the answer instead of cliche paladins would have been pretty kino

>>535878660
so open world hard mode? we'll see if the legion remix one turns out to be kino then im diggin

>>535877528
Arthas didn't destroy the sunwell, the scourge, trolls and blood elves were in a big fight for it so Kael'thas decided to blow it up to prevent it from being use for evil, HOWEVER alexstraza's consort korialstrasz gathers the remaining essence of the sunwell and somehow forms it in to a human woman name Aveena (how and why? don't ask you don't need to know)

Aveena saves kalec from dying and they have some vaguely romantic adventures but eventually kael'thas captures her and then starts funneling her essence back in to the sunwell to summon kil'jaden, we run that plan and anveena sacrifices herself to restore the sunwell fully

Truly, porn is the last good thing about wow. And sadly, the worse and less popular the game gets the less porn we will also get. The future is grim.

At this point I don't care about the story.

HAHAHAHAHAHA OH NONONONONO

Just watched the trailer. I thought the expansional was called Midnight because it was 12.0, not because it was actually mid

WHAT THE FUCK

What the fuck is a haranir

Can someone please hand me a doomtitan apology form?

So are Holly and Ion holding that panel off-stream now? Hoe long zil that VOD is up?
Kinda shit that we can't see iz right now, i expect lots of editing.

>>535879451
The ones in the cinematic look nothing alike though? No wings, no winged helm, no golden skin, they really just look like regular dudes in armor
Also acting like this is big recognizable ability blizz would want to show off in a cinematic when it's available to only prot halfway down the talent tree

>>535880482

>>535880392
ugly bat dudes

they're adding a new 40v40 bg called slayer's rise btw. the usual bare minimum for pvpers

Does the new DH spec just use glaives and not a fucking scythe? What was the point?

12 CIA NIGGERS ON ACTIVISION'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS BTW

>>535879715
And all they had to do to fix it was apply THE most blatant cinematic tropes.

>Liadrin says some variation of "take my life instead of theirs" or "use me as a vessel"
>The Light™ gives her superpowers
>she helps Lor'themar, they both fight Xally in a desperate battle while unnamed grunts are dying left and right around them
>either her or Lor'themar ambiguously die because Xal'atath is just that strong

>Liadrin is praying as if she has no Light like any other normal paladin
>Lor'themar is portrayed as the clear bad guy of the scene, forcing the praying woman who clearly is in the right as we will find out later to join him to fight
>Some shitty choreographed dancing
>Liadrin says screw u and go back, leaving her people alone
>She is praying some more
>Lor'themar has good line which writers immediately mock, and then make him kneel
>Liadrin build up some epic moment, that turns out to be wet fart (Endgame scene but with not a single named character coming out of the portal)
>She is right of course
>Lor'themar is also there, being wrong
>Both has no glowing eyes

Whatever dangerhair bitch wrote this is shit at her job.

It was so fucking obvious it would be the Army of Light. No one else can pierce through space and plot to magically save the day like they can thanks to their flying crystal spaceship.

The bare minimum for PvPers has typically just been a new arena

at least we can still have liadrin as we like to remember her in sloppa

What I'm about to post soon is going to be funny.

Im guessing Harandir wasn't ready so they moved it to Midnight and used K'aresh which is obviously SL cut content in its place.

DH was an unironic mistake.

>>535881137
If Blizzard was actually good they would have given the paladins unique silhouettes instead we got some generic paladins lmao

>>535881242
Etheral story is over anon, it was now or never. They're not gonna happen ever. Same for high elves, any other elf customization and amani trolls.

Now the next cope I guess is asking for vrykuls (that won't happen either) in TLT

>>535881334
because reddit is 2nd of line of being blizzdrone status after the official forums

After several years of hard work through "talent" acquisition... we can finally rest easy knowing Midnight is in good hands.

Everywhere I go everyone seems to be happy, and they're losing their minds over the cinematic. This is one of the only places that is dooming so hard.

>>535875848
As a classicfag it actually sounds nice, most issues I'm seeing are with the expansion launch manpower being spent on patch-tier ideas mixed with a very underwhelming cinematic. If they instead..
1. Made Ethereals the launch neutral race or have faction specific helf/Amani options on launch, add furelves later
2. Expanded shamans and paladins to all races
3. Gave both classes a 4th spec (shaman tanks, shockadin-focused caster spec)
Or something along those lines I think the overall reception would be much, much more positive.

>>535881404
I would have taken nelf paladins over haranir, and I hate nelves

>>535881445
It baffles me why this company is insistent on producing dogshit nobody cares about while ignoring obvious fanservice for 15+ years. It's like they detest money.

>>535881443
my favorite part is that they just kinda.... walk up
like they just arrived to a board meeting or something

>>535881443
The Army of Light is 90% Human + Draenei and 10% random species

>Xal'atath could've just Mind Blasted Liadrin and Lor'themar and killed them the second she teleported in
>Doesn't
Is she dumb?

>>535881367
I'm positive there are story drafts where Khadgar dies with Dalaran, but the writers were told no so they put him in a wheelchair out of spite

so far the cinematic still has a positive like/dislike ratio but the dislikes are still too many

Now that we're certain that the World Soul Saga is a bare minimum rush job, what are your predictions for The Last Titan?

Bro, just let it go. You're only trapping yourself.

>>535880570
>the usual bare minimum for pvpers
remember when they announced the duelers guild in bfa and it sounded like a fight club in wow but it turns out it was just you do a few duels and you get a title or something. no one ever did that except as one off memes a few times throughout the expansion. it was so bare bones that it was not even really a feature and they advertised it as an expansion feature.

Sexiles reach is getting updated to add Jaina, Thrall and Wrathion to it.

Did they learn literally nothing from the runescape players like j1mmy trying out the game and emphasising how dogshit exiles reach was while the classic zones were still miles better?
Its like they're just doing their own fucking thing at this point.
