More lore talk, more stupid stuff, and more Blizz Bashing.
I would fuck a Tauren babe.
I want to be a random retard who is just in the world, I don't want to be the HERO OF AZEROTH.
I WANT TO BE A NOBODY
someone please provide source.
>>344536479
The Demon Hunter in the Blasted Lands who's now in the body of a Dreadlord is this guy, called Loramus Thalipedes.
He's a vendor in the DH class hall.
>>344536571
Pretty sure every race in WoW has someone who would fuck them.
>>344536662
Nice to see him back.
I miss when maps weren't drawn with potatoes so everything could fit into neat zones.
>>344536580HUH[crackling noises]
>>344536662
I remember him in Azshara.
Seeing a Demon Hunter with 3 demon pets in WoW was cool.
>>344536571
who wouldn't?
>>344536884
GARRISONS LEAVE
>>344536990
paying for name change dont worry
>doing a pre-patch quest for Legion
>some demon says to kill Khadgar because Gul'dan wants his head
>Khadgar says to tell Gul'dan that he's grown rather attached to it
Khadgar cheeky as ever
>>344536795
I'm still annoyed that Blizzard's got a damn mountain fetish. Zones don't need mountain ranges around them.
>>344536638
just use tinyeye and you will get your source. Not that hard
>>344536662
Oh ok, that is pretty shitty then. This whole corruption and uncorrupting people must make Metzen a happy man
Well after a long ass time my 36 Gig download of WoW is finally done.
I haven't played since early cata. I got the WoW code from seeing the movie(I hope it actually gives gametime ayy).
What zones are worth checking out now? I didn't do much in the remade cata world.
>>344537138
Khadgar and Gul'dan were the best things to come out of WoD, even with Khadgar having the 'ONE HUNDRED AND TWENT YEIGHT ABROGATOR STONES!' issue.
>>344537230
>I hope it actually gives gametime ayy).
it gives you a free month (and a account with wod)
i just used it to bot for 3 weeks after leveling up
But seriously guys guys!
What if we what if we seriously had..Gumpiercings
>>344536884
>old models
Absolutely disgusting.
>>344537147
might as well spoonfeed me. I get nuffin
>Planets are now just titans
>Tirion dies
>Varian dies
>Tirion, Whitemane, Trollbane, and Irrelevant Orc General are now the new Four Horsemen
>Bolvar is taking action as the Lich King and he's using the Scourge to fight the Legion
>Kel'Thuzad is ressurected, again.
>Artifact weapons are literally... "A Brave Adventurer comes along to x Heroes' side and they give them the Legendary Weapon! y!"
>Everyone gets a Ashbringer
>Genn Greymane is the new Leader of the Alliance and Anduin gets cucked
>Sylvanas is the new Warqueen of the Horde
>Warlord's of Draenor???
>Holy Dreadlord
>Holy Demon Hunter(Illidan in the new warcraft novel gets blessed by a Naaru)
>Sargeras was actually a good guy all along trying to destroy the shadow because only the holy light should exist
>Instead of the shadow being a passive entity like The Light it's actually something manipulated by the "Void Gods"
>Old Gods are now bitches compared to them
>That godawful new movie
>>344537230
Check: Vashjir,Uldum,Thunder island, Jade Forest and new Nagrand.
>>344537230
From Cata onwards:
>Hyjal is neat
>Vashj'ir is the alternative, kinda weird but cool
>Deepholm was amazing
>Uldum's okay
>All of the MoP zones are decent
>Kun-lai Summit is one of the best zones in the game
>WoD zones are boring after one run
>>344537361
its fucking wow, it looks like shit anyway, if i wanted good graphics i would mod crysis,, not a game where i want to see 500 vs 500 players on screen
Would you
>>344537461
I hate Metzen
>>344537513
>>All of the MoP zones are decent
yea , i love escorting shit pandas for minutes so i could finish the quests
>>344537620
This meme needs to die, Metzen is barely working on WoW anymore, he's been too busy with the Warcraft movie, bookshit and Overwatch
Afrasiabi is the one creating the story
>>344537620
Metzen does not work for Blizzard anymore dude
>>344537796
Can we talk about how Hanzo is Metzen's new Self-insert?
I mean seriously he looks exactly like him.
>>344537932
No, it's Soldier 76. He named him after a shitty character from a shitty comic book he made a long time ago.
>>344537461
>Genn Greymane is the new Leader of the Alliance and Anduin gets cucked
What sort of brain addled subhumans write WoW's shitty story nowdays? At what point did they ask themselves who to lead the factions and decided to use a lying whore that everyone hates and an asshole who just joined and hates everyone.
>>344537461
>World Souls (Titans) are extremely rare, Azeroth being the first found in a very long time after the Pantheon
>Tirion isn't a Horsemen, Liadrin uses a Light Ex Machina to kick the DKs out. Darion takes his place.
>Nobody really knows what Bolvar's doing, he's fighting the Legion but also being a bit shady.
>Kel'Thuzad isn't back.
>Most Artifacts involve raiding Tombs rather then being given
>Only Retadins get the Ashbringer
>Implying Anduin would make a proper leader at this time
>Sylvanas is likely gonna step down to either returned Vol'jin or Saurfang
>AU Draenor still fixing its shit
>Turalyon grands a Dreadlord
>Taking the red herring
>Sargeras is still evil, he's just slightly justified in trying to murser all of reality.
>The Dark/Void is still passive, Void Lords are just the Naaru of the Dark
>Old Gods are like limbs to the Void Lords
>Movie was meh
Fight me.
>>344537680
thanks famalamadingdongding
>>344537461
Wait wait wait, kel thuzad is back?...
>>344538149
>Lying Whore
Nobody knows she's lying. It'll make her fall all the better when they do
>Asshole who just joined
Genn's been around since the Second War, as I recall. Maybe even before then. The only person in the Alliance who didn't like him was Varian who was being a pissy brat about it. Of all the human leaders Genn's the best.
>>344538358
he's shitposting
>>344538358
No, he's still MIAuntil next X-pac where he allies with Azshara and splits the Scourge. Anub'arak will also be HIS liutenant now.
>tfw being a warrior
>Donut steel artifacts
>Zero lore characters in the order hall
>An order hall that's also used as a dungeon
>>344538483
He didn't help the Alliance in the Second War and he shut himself off like a bitch in the Third. There is no reason to choose him over, well, every other leader.
>>344538631
>Arms can get a hidden appearance to get an Arcanite Reaper
>Quest to get it involves dueling Saurfang as I recall
>Weapon itself scares the fuck out of Troll NPCs
Arms is gonna be so silly.
>>344538156
you seem like a reasonable person
>>344538780
I aint that guy but his plan ultimately worked. It stopped both the orcs and the scourge getting gileas, had stormminge and lordaeron done the same they might've been in a better position.
and don't bother bringing up the worgen, I understand that the wall got them screwed from the inside but the objective of genns plan was to stop orcs and the scourge.
and even then being turned to worgen worked out in their favor.
>>344538780
>Tyrande and Malfurion dealing with Val'sharah
>Velen getting too old for this shit and packing up the Exodar
>Magni returns and leaves to begin preparing for something big
>Three Hammers is in political tension because of it
>Mekkatorque is just looking out for the Gnomes
>Anduin is Anduin
>Jaina is full on DISMANTLE mode.
>Genn is actually pretty level-headed and attracts numerous other kingdoms like Kul Tiras now that he's actually fighting
Literally every reason.
>>344538809
Is that true?
>>344539203
His plan worked, but he's still an asshole.
>>344538809
Shit son, dueling saurfang? Sign me up.
>>344539247
Kul Tiras is back?
How do you guys keep up with the lore?
Do you have to play through each expansion and each class to get everything?
>>344539398
Read the books and listen to the quest dialogue. THat's it. Classes have nothing to do with it.
>>344539279
The first and third point I know are true. Heard about the quest but still a bit iffy. Pic related is one of the other colorations, it starts out red
>>344539349
Datamining shows NPCs with the Kul Tiras title are in, primarily Marines. Nobody with a name yet, though.
>mfw Sargeras could probably just completely annihilate Azeroth if he wanted to
>mfw Scepter of Sargeras artifact history says that he wants to make Azeroth his after seeing the titan's true form
>mfw Azeroth is Sargeras' waifu
>>344539505
I hated playing prot in WoD so I think I'll switch to arms if that's the case
>>344539629
Honestly if he could convice her to side with him the Void Lords wouldn't stand a chance
>>344539247
I like it that Genn keeps things together and acting from the worst case scenario of horde backstabbing, might be abit hardline but it's hell of a lot better than standing around like a lame rooster.
>>344539398
I've been playing WoW for a long time so I know most of the lore but honestly, just ignore it because it gets quite random at many points.
>>344539906
Seems like they deliberately choose Genn because he has a personal vendetta against Sylvannas. He's in the Broken Isles mostly to chase down Sylvannas and fight the Horde, providing the motivation for PvP objectives there.
>>344539331
>Saurfang was once ordered by Thrall to punch one of Orgrimmar's walls. This created Ragefire Chasm.
>Saurfang can cleave Azeroth and hit Outland
>The Deeprun Tram was made when Saurfang charged from Ironforge to Stormwind
>Saurfang demans six hours of meditation every week. Thus, Tuesday Maintenance was born.
>>344540346
Are you twelve?
>>344540421
I wish
>>344540421
No, I'm really fucking tired and WoWHead comments look funnier there.
>>344540264
Yeah.. i wonder why i still care about this shitfest, Seven expansions in and it's just.. to fuck things up this badly you need to Try to fail.
>>344539349
Considering geography evolution in warcraft Gilneas will have a land connection with dun morgon in 2-3 expansions and Kul'Tiras will be seen from the coasts of echo isles.
>>344539247
Mekkatorque seems to be quite involved in the alliance's military ops lately. Storming Ogrimmar and aiding at the Broken Shores.
>>344540505
I've never understood this all Elves leaving and "passing at the end of an age"..Nigger you have the power to build the greatest civilization on the face of the (middle)earth. Why Leave to just go boating to some place no one heard about.
Alliance plz replace the Night Elves wholesale with the Nightborne. Purple junkies are not better than purple hippies but at least their architecture is far more pretty.
>>344541029
That's just blue blood elf architecture
>>344541029
>implying that isn't just belf architecture with a paint of blue
You should try horde sometime ;^ )
>>344541136
>>344541309
That's the point.
>tfw really like Demon Hunters
>tfw know it's gonna be the ultimate scrub class populated solely by the absolute bottom of the barrel shitters and stigmatized to hell and back for the entire expansion and I will never get a place in a proper raiding guild with the sheer overload of them
then again, I already mained a hunter so it's nothing new
>>344541354
belf shit can fuck off
Anyone here played the beta? How is warrior and druid tanking in Legion? About the same as it was in WoD?
>>344540759
>Blizzdrone reacts to literature
>>344537138
>Later takes his head off and puts it in a bubble
>While going through his junk he comes across apexis crystals, says we don't need them
anybody knows a good blizz like tbc server?
i just dont feel like paying 12 dollars for time
Has any character been treated so poorly as this one? I feel like Blizzard tries their best to forget he existed.
>>344541526
Duncan Jones is literally not an old white man in the trenches of World War 1 though
>>344540759
because magic was fading, humans were increasing and the elves were slowly dying out because of their low numbers. The elves loved middle earth because they were born there, but if they lived there, they would have to suffer. They persisted so long in middle earth because they loved it, but by the end of the third age, the sindar and noldor were too few. They were perpetually living in the past and using their magic rings to hold on to it desperately. Once the one ring was destroyed, all the glories of the elves starting from their awakening started to grow stale.
The world had literally outgrown them. Thats what makes it so sad. Its like growing up and moving away from the place you have lived for all your life.
>>344537278
YES GOOD DAY HERO!
I NEED 900 STONES TO MAKE THESE THREE TABLETS. WHILE YOU'RE AT IT GET ME THIS ENTIRELY RANDOM APEXIS CRYSTAL NUMBER AND 33 TOMES OF CHAOS!
Don't forget to bring me Blackhand's arm while you're out, alright? Alright.
>they still havent added the NE's main structure to the game
>>344541872
>now, I normally wouldn't ask you to assault a heavily fortified, moving train but... Well no, this is exactly the sort of thing I'm going to ask of you. All the time
Khadgar was so good
>>344541881
Most of the Wisps blew up at the end of WC3.
>>344541881
>the night elf theme starts playing in your head.
I just want to go back to those days ;_;
>>344541526
Point out what's wrong here.
He's saying he's coming from a different position to Tolkein and is naturally going to make a different product
>>344541629
You do know that J.R.R. Tolkein wasn't either though right? And he did a lot more to learn about culture than Jones ever will
>>344542020
Honestly the best part of the whole expansion was Khadgar.
Hope he still plays a big part in Legion, as long as he isn't going to make me go on another shopping list errand run.
>>344542176
I don't think a sci fi director that got roped into an already written movie adaption of a video game needed to learn much about """culture"""
Christ you're autistic. You might as well ignore every single fantasy story ever written because it's not muh Tolkien
I AM KHADGAR
HOW ARE YOU
>>344542176
>reading about tolkien
>when he describes his wife when he was recuperating
>when she dies before him
>>344542362
I miss that beard
>>344537138
Oh, so they actually remembered Khadgar existed in WoD? Next thing you'll be telling me that Saurfang left Northrend
>>344537796
he stopped working on that shit like, less than a year ago, and left less than a month ago. He's part of the shit, but i still think activision executives ruined blizzard far more than this guy did. he was just the best at sucking up.
>>344542530
Ironically enough, he wanted SC2 to be grittier and less fantasy. The stuff you see about jimmy being a drunken mess in WoL? it was metzen's idea.
>>344541391
>tfw DK
>tfwgoing to go DH next xpac
I'M EDGE.
DARKNESS AND ANGST INCARNATE.
I AM KHADGAR
IM SO PRETTY
IM SO CHARMING
IM A NERD JUST LIKE YOU
>>344542319
Then why is it okay for him to just say he's some old white man in the trenches of World War I and shit all over his books because warcraft has the power of "muh diversity"
Even though he wrote LotR after WWI and travelled the world learning new languages and about other cultures writing his books in the process.
And he was with that movie in production for a solid four years or so.
He didn't get "Roped in" he was already in on it.
>>344542176
You're missing the point.
He's just saying the tone is naturally going to be different because Tolkien has his own voice and he believes Warcraft does now, too.
So am I ever getting vanilla wow back?
I don't care if I have to pay for it
>>344542748
>and shit all over his books because warcraft has the power of "muh diversity"
I don't remember him saying this
>>344542530
Dunno, it's not like Blizzards plot devices changed much since the days of SC1. That's precisely why they became so incredibly stale - they didn't learn anything in those 20 years, just reusing same shit over and over again.
>>344542654
>those cringeworthy allusions to him being the next guardian every time Medivh and him are together on screen
>>344536601
>I WANT TO BE A NOBODY
You already are
>>344542903
Probably not
>>344542903
When Legion inevitably bombs, yes. Blizzard will have no other choice.
>>344542989
>>those cringeworthy allusions to him being the next guardian every time Medivh and him are together on screen
well they literally said he was training to be it at the start
>>344536601
>I don't want to be the HERO OF AZEROTH.
Why did you keep playing then? Why did you keep fighting and killing all the big bads if you didn't want to be a hero?
Why didn't you just stick to your professions like mom wanted?
>>344542903
They proabably will, the question is just when
Blizzard has said that WoW is almost about 50% finished, meaning that we have around 12 years more of expansions and patches and shit.
If Legion fails like WoD did than you might get it within 2 years, but if it's succesful then you might have to wait a loooooong time
>>344543124
They're dirty peasant roleplayers prolly
>>344543120
Then why did they need to remind us about it every 10 minutes? It's not like it becomes relevant in the movie itself.
>>344543124
maybe he wanted to help the "bad guys"
>>344542443
Current Leader of Orgrimmar
>>344543293
I think it's perfectly natural in the way it came up to be honest
>"wow I'm fucking shit and can't leave this tower"
>"so why don't you let the kid protect them instead?"
>"wow what the fuck you're reading my books without my permission you don't own this place yet"
etc etc
>>344543124
Because now the story revolves around the almighty player instead of the world
>YOU are the commander
>YOU are the chosen one
>YOU are the wielder of the most powerful weapon in the world
It sucks
>>344543124
You're just a random grunt alongside 24 other random grunts. Did the footmen that killed the big bads in the RTS games become characters too?
where the elves at
>>344543542
Is that why all the lore characters still play a part? You taking a back seat with a little more power every expansion isn't the same as the world revolving around you.
The player is given more liberties and shit every expansion but the story still belongs to the characters who have helped us kill the big bads in every expansion.
>>344543660
Some did, like Falric and Marwyn. Then there's Nazgrim and Commander Taylor.
>>344543660
well, kinda.
>>344543542
After all the leveling you do, you deserve a little bit of recognition.
You start a nobody. After Outland and Northrend they start to notice you. After the work you do during the Cataclysm and literally saving the world, they're pretty impressed. After the Pandaria campaign they think you should lead. And after the Legion invasion they see you as one of your class's best heroes.
It's natural progression. It'd be stupid to not be considered a huge deal at this point.
>>344536601
>killed Ragnaros the firelord
>killed Old god C'thun
>killed Lichs kings right hand
I JUST WANNA BE NOBODY LIKE VANILLA
Are nostalgia people really this mentally ill ?
>>344543660
Well, Falric in Halls of Reflection is the Captain from the Warcraft III Human missions.
ever since Cata, I've gone through the same cycle:
1) don't play launch, can't be arsed with the leveling holocaust during the first few weeks
2) get into the game late, level, do dungeons with the bros etc.
3) I'm a hardcore raider at heart, so after getting bored of 5man shit, I build my own raids/join a good raiding guild
4) get bored of things during last tier, quit.
5) rinse and repeat
is Legion gonna be the same? feels like WoW is just utter shit at being a game for non-raiders.
>>344544274
they're trying to address that problem precisely, with lot of focus on solo and 5-man content so raiding won't be the only way to improve your character.
>>344541603
How about any tauren character?
>Cairne died in patch notes
>Magatha pulls of a coup that goes nowhere and ends up sitting in Thousand Needles, twiddling her thumbs.
>Baine ends up defending the guy who killed his dad.
>Dezco crushes one of his own children while trying to protect him.
>Tauren tend to get lore that involves them being massacred or killed in brutal ways.
>>344543807
>a little more power every expansion
See, this was how it started. You were just a grunt picking berries and killing animals, then you did that so much you got to go off to Outland. After that your big reward was skipping the queue in Northrend because a guy recognised you from Outland. It felt natural and made sense for an MMO.
Suddenly Cataclysm came along and you were a massive fucking deal that Thrall was sucking off and the chosen champion of your faction or some shit. That just carried over to the next two expansions and is getting dialed up to 11 with Legion
>mfw Legion continues the self-masturbatory plot where the player is LE CHOSEN OEN!!!111!!!!!11
Who the fuck likes this kind of insultingly bad writing?
>>344543807
Yeah man, I really liked how Vol'jin played a part in Draenor, by vistting my garrison now and then.
Or, uh...
Uh....
>>344544654
>>344544210
>picking berries and killing animals
Yeah, sure thing kiddo. Let's not pretend that the raids in Vanilla didn't exist before Outland came.
>>344544854
>Let's not pretend that the raids in Vanilla didn't exist before Outland came.
and you were still a fucking nobody
You don't run up to Ragnaros and challenge him to a duel with your hands tied behind your back in the raids, do you? You're just one of many people attacking him all at once.
>>344545019
it's still like that with you getting more attention. You did something that nobody on the whole Azorth globe was able to do and that is killing at the time a freaking primal elemental lord and later was able to defeat something that the fucking titans had problems with aka old gods.
Stop living in your little delusional world nostfuck
>>344544659
You see, We are going to save the world atleast twice more before Jaina goes off the deep end and finally fucks over the Warcraft Timeline by tricking us to assault the Bronze Dragonflight and changing an outcome of the Third War.
>>344545194
>You did something that nobody on the whole Azorth globe was able to do and that is killing at the time a freaking primal elemental lord and later was able to defeat something that the fucking titans had problems with aka old gods.
and then get asked to pick berries and kill animals again by literal nobodies until the next raid, where you and a bunch of other nobodies group up to take on somebody.
can you name every single person that was involved in the raid on Sadam Hussein's house?
>>344545194
So these are the people Blizzard panders to with their nonstop player cocksucking? Absolutely disgusting, you should be ashamed of yourself my man.
>>344544210
Those things are pretty much nobodies. And the NPCs never referred to you as some kind of hero on the level of the ones from WC3.
>>344544610
boy I bet they're glad they joined up with the Orcs to help them out with a tiny conflict all those years ago
>>344544274
the first week of a exp launch its the only fun part of the game where it doesn't feel dead , and it feels like a mmo
>>344545194
>that is killing at the time a freaking primal elemental lord
You don't kill him, you just banish him back to his dimension.
>>344543986
For me, the problem isn't the recognition, but how poorly a job Blizzard does in making quest text be dynamic enough that NPCs "remember" you. If you run into an important lore figure for the first time in a new zone, the best you're going to get is a, "It's good to see you, <name>," regardless of your previous standing with that character.
The most recent example I can think of is that worgen chick, Fiona. I rode all around the Eastern Plaguelands in her gypsy wagon with her belf and dwarf bodyguards, and the quest chain actually made it seem like they became your friends. Then you run into them again in Draenor and they DON'T EVEN RECOGNIZE YOU. All you get is the generic, "Oh, it's the commander!" and that's all.
For how often Blizzard puts in meaningless shit like, "I haven't seen a <race> like you in a while!" you'd think they could do a little extra work and alter some NPCs' dialogue for if you've already assisted them previously.
>>344545470
>>344545351
I am not defending the whole LEADER OF YOUR CLASS. But pretending that killing an old god is a simple thing and that in itself still makes you an adventure is fucking autistic and you people know it.
>>344545569
Blizzards writing has been fucking horrible since the start of WoW. Every single thing you did in TBC was because you needed to get closeer to defeating guy from Wc3 that you might remember.
>>344545754
Nobody knew that in Vanilla. That is something they wrote in Cata.
They going to do Kul Tiras with a Patch
I'm feeling it. Mainly because There are Kul Tiras marines in Azsuna during a quest.
>>344545832
>Nobody knew that in Vanilla. That is something they wrote in Cata.
Did you join the game in Cata? Literally everyone knew that in Vanilla you dopey cunt.
>>344545832
>But pretending that killing an old god is a simple thing
?
Arthas and Anub'arak killed one in WC3.
>>344545975
please link then, because they never said anything about only banishing him in Vanilla. Giving us back Ragnaros in Firelands was something they wrote in later that the elemental lords can't be killed in our dimension/world.
>sylvanas becomes warchief
>horde gets exclusive [Superior Morale] buff increasing stamina by 10%.
>>344545884
>Jaina turning Kul Tiras into her personal army.
>You have to storm Kul Tiras to put her down while getting catch-up epics.
>Something like Zul'Aman 10m.
>>344546150
>Giving us back Ragnaros in Firelands was something they wrote in later that the elemental lords can't be killed in our dimension/world.
lol no it wasn't, that's been in the game the whole time.
>>344546151
>Sylvanas covers up her belly button
>Horde gets "fuck this SJW shit" stamina -1000%
>>344546098
No they didn't
>>344545797
Reminds me of my favorite Goblin Character, Sassy Hardwrench. If you play a Goblin, She will freak out with joy and call you Boss again. Not shared with the quests, But I liked that and I wanted to see more of her in Warcraft.
>tfw the urges are coming back
so tempted to re-sub when pre-patch comes out despite wanting to die of boredom 2 weeks after draenor
they keep fucking getting me
>>344546098
That was a minion. there are 4 old gods. all placed around Azeroth.
C'thun in Kalimdor
Yogg in Northrend
N'Zoth in eastern kingdom and around vashj'ir in the water

Can you Blizzdrones stop referring to your character as "us" and "we" when talking about lore, you autistic gays.
And you're wrong, it was always in the game. You just didn't know because you never played vanilla.

>>344546979
I said "us" because that is the one he's talking about when blizzard tries to justifies their reason for bringing back Ragnaros.
But keep your faggorty contained on twitter where you can jerk of to your ebin youtuber and old WoW devs about "the golden age of wow" that never was vanilla because the best one wasTBCwith its horrible writing.

I would riot.
Also has anyone else noticed how our Gul'dan was a second string villain who succeeded in pretty much nothing and killed himself like a moron. Blizzard sort of accidentally made him the warlock 'face' and have been trying to retroactively make him seem like a badass.

Blizzard are incapable of making "badass" characters, yet they keep on trying so hard to do so.
Remember Yrel? They even ruined Khadgar too by turning him into this ebin so quirky xDDD Mary Sue. Hate it when they keep on shoving characters down player's throats nonstop.
>>344548321
Yeah, he even took Ner'zhul's place in the warcraft movie as the guy that led orcs to azeroth. I dunno what kind of vendetta Blizz has against poor Ner'zhul

How can you argue that modern WoW is better than Vanilla/TBC when the game is completely dead due to lack of content and completely boneheaed design decisions like removing any kind of failure state and mobile minigames replacing all gameplay?
So what are the bets that sylvanas ends up going evil and becoming a boss at either the end of legion or whatever comes next?
>>344548556
Felt like Khadgar was the only thing that made WoD playable the first month because everything else was about fucking Orcs,orcs orcs and more orcs.
>>344548937
Zero chance, because blizzard is putting so much effort in marketing Sylvanas as one of the main characters in legion and she will probably get a poorly and cringe educed redemption arc.
>>344548937
Considering that she's been a kerrigan rip-off from day one the chances are zero. She's gonna be redeemed and will probably become the saviour of Azeroth to boot.

>>344550108
Every expansion was a fucking mistake. WoW should never have happened.
>>344549948
>let's go through to Outland and kill Illidan for some reason
Because Illidan attacked the naru/shattrath for some reason that they never bothered to explain
>>344549205
The problem was that it was supposed to be, But they didn't know how to vary it and keep it going. You can hardly figure out the Ogre narrative besides selling Enchantments to the IH like a retarded Dwarf kid.
Arrakoans were the best but it never fit in with the Warlords story and the end comes out of nowhere when you attack the Shattered Hand base. Nowhere else do we learn about the Shattered Hand and see their ways.
Talador doesn't have a presence besides Learning Blackrock, Even then it's more a mush of Draenei stuff, Shadow Council and a wasted plot line. Gorgrond was to be this huge Blackrock area where you could ride a train around the zone while helping Ogrim Doomhammer learn what they are doing is wrong and also learn more about the Blackrock and Gronn. But they did just 'Faralorn is shit, Lets add that story to Gorgrond' and have 'PLANTS AND ZOMBIES VS GIANTS!'
Shadowmoon teaches us of their clan, But it does remove the whole 'Great Siege of Karabor' in the Trailer. Whatever, It's the best zone with Frostfire being second since while Frostfire does everything right with what to do... It is a boring wasteland.
Nagrand I just fucking hate since I spent too much time their. It's a good zone that explains Warsong and Ogres and such... But it gave me sad Nessingwary who didn't have a big hunt, Had the shitty ending with Thrall cheating and I hated having to constantly go their for my fucking Archeology.
Why couldn't we have a silly raid with us going on a Big Hunt with Nessingwary to Faralorn to kill some Raid tier beasts?
>>344550287
WoW should have been on Steam, it was greedy as fuck of them to deny Gaben a cut of the profit of saving PC gaming.
>>344549973
>tauren now descend from the yak people instead of the other way around
but that's nothing compared to new troll lore that flat out says "oh yeah they didn't predate the titan's arrival silly, that's a lie also dark trolls are/were benevolent and kind!" when they were supposed to be the savagest
>>344550428
Valve should have been given all of Blizzard IP's. Imagine a Warcraft game made by people who actually give a shit about the community and lore.
>>344550326
>Because Illidan attacked the naru/shattrath for some reason that they never bothered to explain
An anon mentioned a demon hunter quest explains it was Kael'thas acting under Kil'jaeden, Illidan had nothing to do with the attack.

Valve should have been given every gaming IP.

>>344550403
>Why couldn't we have a silly raid with us going on a Big Hunt with Nessingwary to Faralorn to kill some Raid tier beasts?
Or hunting with nessingwary would've made a great 5-man or scenario if they had bothered to make them relevant again
>>344550131
Name 2 more powerful.
>>344550326
How would we even know about that before we entered Outland and made it to the middle of the continent itself?
>>344550719
We didn't which is why we didn't get around to fighting illidan until later on, bc started out with fighting the demons
>>344550590
it was in BC already, returning the verdant sphere quest you get from Kael makes him shout "lol I'm still alive and working for the legion, fuck you all" in Shattrath. We only raided BT because Akama and Maiev were buttmad.

>>344550326
You talked first about invading Outland because Shattra was attacked. But the attack on shattra was much later in the timeline when we already had established bases in outland.
Invading outland was just something to push forward the story and force us to meet old character from Wc3 to later kill them to get loot.
>>344550623
>made to be this strong female character

She isn't even comming to our timeline becuase reasons.

Gonna dick around with a free month's time troll warlock, druid, or priest?
I'd fuck the shit out of Yrel's mouth.
>>344552119
They claim that it's because they had to retrain all the new members. The actual reason is probably that they realized they could still keep up more subs than any other mmo out there even if they don't release content for over a year so they stopped trying
>>344551769
>You talked first about invading Outland because Shattra was attacked. But the attack on shattra was much later in the timeline when we already had established bases in outland.
No I said the reason that we killed illidan was that he was attacking the naru and shattrath, the original reason we went into outland was because kazzak reopened the portal.
Warlords was basically 2 things, It's the 'Only just a Dream' scenario where the entire thing is self-contained and pointless. It's basically a Movie or TV show that decided to do the story line where they change something and we got to change it back/stop it. It's basically Shrek 4.
It's also the 'Remember this stuff from Burning Crusade?!' whole throwing in other stuff. You can't go questing without the throwback.
>Last boss of Sethikk Halls is a Rare Mob in Spires. Almost all Arrakoans besides Reshad and Ishkar seem to have names from BC, I could be wrong

>>344552927
>It's basically a Movie or TV show that decided to do the story line where they change something and we got to change it back/stop it. It's basically Shrek 4.
Besides bringing back Gul'Dan.

Except for the part where they brought AU Gul'dan to our world because MU Azeroth is running out of known "big baddies".
>>344549990
>the FIRST orc warlock
I'd wash the WoD cock out of your mouth bro I was talking about the real Gul'dan not AU retroactivly made into a badass Gul'dan. The first warlock was Ner'zhul
>one of, if not the most powerful warlock ever bar maybe Kil'jaeden
Maybe or maybe not, our Gul'dan did very little to suggest he was immensly powerful
>created the Horde, ogre magi, Death Knights and (albeit second hand) Demon Hunters
He didn't create the horde, ogre magi were retconned not to be him (but I'll give it to you because fuck retcons). he made first gen DKs yeah so Doomhammer wouldn't fist him and I'm not sure how demon hunters relate.
Like I said Blizz is trying to retcon him to make him more important then he was.
The void lords are just supermassive ultrapowerful voidwalkers?

>>344553072
>>344553116
Does it justify a whole expansion? Why are there no Further repercussions? It will never affect our world then the people that died in it. We won't see Grom leaving to see Orgrimmar, Or Yrel exploring our world and reuniting with Velen. We won't see the Bronze Dragonflight arguing if it is right for communication and travel between the two worlds happen. Blizzard doesn't care to explain what will happen anytime after Warlords.
Gul'dan could have come back as Thralls son after demons fucked his wife, or possessed Illidans body with demonshit or something. Hell, You could have had Legion without even Gul'dan. The whole time mess is convoluted and will never be explored again now. We won't see anyone else mess with time and having us fix it again.

Basically, then the old gods are over them. The Void Gods are probably in between but do their own things.
>>344554524
They wanted 'neutral' grounds for class halls so that it makes sense for both factions to be there.
So naturally that means that they fuck Warriors up the ass like they do.
>>344554524
They did. Which is completely wrong because it would feel good if it's anything like Valhalla. We'd just have these great warriors from all over the lore, just beating the shit out of each other and coming back to keep killing each other for all eternity inbetween feasting like kings.
>>344554631
>Basically, then the old gods are over them
Other way around dude. Old gods are the minions of the Void Lords
>>344554524
Lorewise, It has only been until recently since Odyn freed himself from Helya's shroud. The army there were Vykrul that fell long ago. Plus, It was Vykrul only for a long time. Perhaps they should add a quest where you can bring piece to those stuck in the Shadowlands and bring them to the Halls of Valor.

Cata looked neat, mainly because I wanted to play as a Dwarf Shaman, but that was right when all of my friends left the game.

Seriously, who the fuck killed that giant faceless general down there? Arms or S.Priest?
>>344558456
Eh I would have preferred Ashkandi (Ideally with an explanation why it looks nothing like any sword Lothar was ever pictured with), but it's not terrible all things considered.
Gameplay wise I like how it weaves in sublte shadow damage (Btw i don't care what salty rogues say I like that sub actually does semimagical attacks that are tied to shadow damage now).
There really is a lot of stuff that happens in the books that never even gets brought up in the game itself.
>Chen has an actual waifu that he met in War Crimes
>>344559131
Ashkandi would've been great but I can't see Lothar's sword being given to any warrior of the horde
>>344556401
How so? I thought demonology was going to be pretty powerful.
>>344559018
Strom'kar killed the faceless one it's lodged in its body and that's why some arms abilities have shadow damage weaved in now.
The sprist dagger was just 'leading' the cult down there so it could get more power.
>death knights will never be able to kill friendly targets and purge goldshire ever again
>>344559284
>>344559131
Would be great if you got Lothar's sword and the artifact ability is his sliding ball-chopper move from the movie.
>>344553274
The border between Elwynn, Westfall and Duskwood is just a river that gives you a perfect view of each zone, and those we're some of the earliest created areas. It's just lazy map-making to wall everything off with mountains.

On a related note to Cairne's death, I'm still salty about Magni's death.
It was barely mentioned in anything, brushed aside and overall felt like as though someone at blizzard went "well if we kill a horde leader off but no alliance leaders that won't be fair!" after writing Cairne's death.
If diamond Magni doesn't kick something's ass in legion I'm going to be pissed.
How is Alliance these days? Is there still a big Horde bias with the Alliance lore/writing being rushed dogshit?
>>344560392
Because it'ds actually deathstalker.
Convince me to play again
Last time I played I was a Tauren Warrior in burning crusade. I kinda miss romping around as a big, boisterous bull.
>>344560742

>>344560679
This.
Shame Blizzard quite literally forgot about Sunwalkers and just made them into Tauren Paladins.
Does demon hunter totally outclass rogue?
>>344560392
>Not undead Warlock
>>344560941
They closed off the valley out of mulgore and split barrens into two.
>>344560978
I don't mind either way actually. Tauren paladins are the coolest shit and brought tauren on the map for a little while.
>>344560849
Writing now just has both factions doing the same shit
It always parallels each other too, like how both the factions got new leaders
>>344561170
at the cost of it making no fucking sense
>>344560849
Aside from the central plot of the current and last expansion revolving around Garrosh's gigantic orc supremacy boner, lore has been pretty even.
The only expansion where the horde bias was actually bad was cata where they were literally cutting alliance content and shitting on alliance as much as humanly possibly (twilight highlands still gives me god damn brain aneurysms)
>>344560392
Does priest undead even make sense unless they're shadow? Doesn't the light cause them pain?

>furcancer
Please kill yourselves
>>344560996
Depends on how you look at it. Regardless of how you feel about rogues they take a lot more effort than many other classes in order to be effective, regardless of spec. In this regard Demon Hunters don't take that away from them, since you could rub your grubby Cheerios-smelling hands on the keyboard like a spastic gremlin and perform well as a DH. Rogue is still the "hard" class, even with the dumbing down in Leg.
But Demon Hunters so absorb all the leather agility drops, can rush and flip all over the map, can see stealthed units and are pretty fun to play. They also got glaives exclusively when rogues had been asking for them since BC.
>>344561337
>Doesn't the light cause them pain?
Extreme amounts of pain.
Non-shadow Undead Priests are supposed to be fucking insane and intensely devoted to the light, to the point of being willing to basically set themselves on fire to continue using it.
>>344561170
>brought tauren on the map for a little while.
More so because the Undead players literally shit themselves with anger over Tauren being able to be Paladins and not them.Not that I mind.
>>344561252
Sunwalkers make sense, it's just that Blizzard will never change spells names and whatnot to make them fit because that'd be too much work. So they got lazy and turned Sunwalkers into Tauren Paladins.
>>344561252
Sunwalkers would be a lot better if there were more tauren-themed plate. Besides, sunwalkers make them more than "Native American cows".
>>344561465

Can't wait for it to happen. Blizz tries to win back credibility for removing jokes in the game. You have to be fucking stupid if you think they'll keep it in.
>>344561170
>>344561252
the lore for some horde race class combos has always been strenuous at best but they don't even try anymore
>Troll Priests are witch doctors, and their racial spells reflect this
>Now they follow the holy light
>Undead priests are almost universally shadow priests and the only shadow priests
>Now they all follow the holy light and everyone can be a shadow priest it doesn't matter
>Tauren Priests and Paladins are basically a subsect of druids
>after the starting subzone they just become normal priests and paladins
>>344561710
That's how it works.
As far as I know there are also two undead Paladins (that hidden guy that used to be in SM:cath and some generic NPC at light's hope) and it works the same for them.
>>344556574

>>344555307
To be fair, priests getting their Juju from different sources has been getting increasingly less important as time has gone on, to the point where it might as well not be in the lore at all.
>>344561465
It's not even about the pain, it's the light momentarily bringing their dead flesh back to life, restoring their senses and emotions. Basically they have a brief moment to think about the abomination they've come and all the feelings they haven't really cared about in years surfacing all at once.
>>344562370
Look at Fury Warrior. You'll feel like a badass with the new changes coming to it.
>>344561710
It's canon. Really fucking stupid canon, but canon anyway.

I remember reading a cool idea for fury warrior artifacts that was basically going back to pandaria to get Garrosh's gorehowl from the vale and then going to Draenor to get the AU gorehowl from Grom and dual wielding two gorehowls.

Man, you got this far so it's a piece of cake. Wrath and Cata leveling are the worst.
>>344563725
If you don't feel like questing anymore you can can level by merely collecting treasures and doing bonus objectives. With flying, full heirlooms and garrison xp potion, shouldn't take more than 5 hrs.
>>344564061
Then you will play a Demon Hunter on August 30.
>>344564097
Wrath is bad, but at least with Cata you can just do the entirety of Hyjal with some dungeons added in.
>>344563725

>>344549810

the game itself wasn't that good save for the dungeon design of some dungeons and raids, what made it good was the community

>>344564097
hyjal was pretty good

So, how do my fellow warriors feel about blizzard admitting that they purposely did not theme "warriors" on "warriors" in legion but rather Vrykul, with more focus on this theme in the future promised?
So how different will Legion be from WoD? I enjoyed WoD at launch, it was fun to level but there was not much after you hit max

Kind of sucks for any non-human warrior player, but I guess they're at least trying to give warriors some sort of identity outside of heavy armored guy with big sword.
>>344565901
I dislike the theming in general. Shadow priests being old god worshipers is dumb, combat rogues being pirates is dumb, warriors being vikings is even fucking dumber

There was nothing wrong with pre-nerf cata dugneons either
Except dungeon finder and gearscore.
>Join group
>"kick this noob he doesn't out gear the dungeon"
>get kicked
Dungeon finder was a terrible system to add to the game, when they put raid tier badges on the daily random everyone became cancerous, it was bad in wrath too, its just when they added it everyone already ougeared the dungeons
>>344566025
Cata also had the best boss quotes.

Shadow Priests being Old God worshippers sort of makes send though since the void is closely associated with the Old Gods and has been for some time. Maybe the Old Gods shouldn't be worshiped, but the Shadow priests should be a sort of fringe movement of people unafraid to explore the void or the Old Gods power.

>they....they'll fix it I swear!
t.Everyone in every blizz beta EVER
At the start of every expansion there has been 1 spec that is broken in some way for every class. This was always discovered in beta and never fixed.
>>344566051
There's always the jukebox thankfully.'Invincible' all day erry day
>>344566439
I stand by my belief that the dungeon finder should have been in-server only or they should heavily incentivized manually forming groups (instead of doing literally the opposite)
>>344542362
You're a shit wizard,Khadgar.
>>344566639
But thats what they have done in legion. Almost no one uses the LFG tool once they hit max level. Its all making your own mythic dungeon grounds.
>>344544210
See I'm not complaining about killing big niggas.
I'm complaining about what they've been doing in the latest expansions where they say "YOU'RE the commander of an entire Garrison!" or "YOU are the only one who is capable of wielding THE ASHBRINGER since Tirion has fallen, restore the light bullshit."
When in all reality LITERALLY everyone else is doing the same exact thing and getting the same exact literal legendary items without any real context other than "oh he's playing the game."
It just makes the game feel so fucking cheesy.
What is your favorite class hall?
>warriors get fucking Valhalla
>>344566289
>sucks for none-human
Except they always make the distinction between Vrykul and humans. There is NO mention of humans being Vrykul once in legion for instance
>some sort of identity outside of heavy armored guy with big sword
Except all their weapons are hilariously oversized swords, and blizzard has made no attempt to fit the warrior into the hall itself. They're just there. All the Vrykul actually sit around insulting you. Hydall, one of your followers, gets pissy and states you dont deserve to have your weapon.
>>344566951
Warlock one. Its just so unique and cool and Warlock. And all the set pieces like the succubus harem pit are great touches.
Druid is a close second, but mostly because I love that the emerald causeway is attached it to.

>warriors get a valhalla thats not for warriors

I asked on Reddit if WoW was any good for a new player. All the answers said that WoW is the most amazing thing ever and that Legion will increase the subscription numbers to 15 million players (because of the movie giving normal people exposure to WoW).
Is this true? Should I play WoW?
>>344567894
Haha no
>>344567609
Sorry to break it to you, they only changes the very small area around the temple for that hall. 90% of the island is just the same stuff as when leveling on it. Even has villagers in some parts preparing for fights as part of the leveling experience quests.
>>344567894
Warcraft was a failure in the US, pretty shitty in Europe too. It was only huge in China.
I don't think it added terribly many players to the game.
>>344567609
I feel like their should be certain objectives you should be able to do for buffs. Like Dailies that allow your spells to have an hour effect when your questing. Like Monks have to have a drinking contest or Serpent Spine 2.0. Warlocks have to help certain demon objectives for a pet buff like Chasing a bunch of Imps in Tag or making up a story/song for a Succubi with random phrases. Demon Hunter flight contests, Druids cleansing forests, Warrior survival challanges

Blizzards fault for letting that shitty director make a warcraft movie that was very loosely based on established lore.
"Its a warcraft movie!"
"Thats not about warcraft."
>>344537230
Uldum's my favorite place in Cata. Don't know why; I live in the desert like Art Bell and I fucking hate it.
Pandaland is all pretty beautiful and has great music.
WoD zones are whatever, Shadowmoon Valley is pretty nice to look at. I'd say just go to Grizzly Hills, still the comfy capital of the world along with maybe Winterspring.
>>344568339
Warlocks get their own harem as part of the class hall
>>344568485
Truly?
Well then.
That's one convincing argument.
>>344555321
Depends. Is the fury warrior one 2 hand or 1 hand weapons?
if dual 2hand probably Untamed Blades or Ashkandi I'd have to see
>>344568781
Warrior artifact is 2h only
Does Legion have a do not post screencaps or whatever bullshit still? Or is it a share freely thing?
>>344564317
They fucked up everything after wrath anyways.
This tread just convinced me to play Kronos instead of Retail.
>>344568781
They were originally 1 handers. Fans got mad. Blizzard then stretched out the artifact and its skins to be 2 hander sized.
The issue here is that they stretched the textures, so it looks like shit when placed on the character model.
>>344567352
If you wanna know the "real reason" it's because ravenholdt was burned down in Cata and Blizzard has said themselves that they want to keep it that way.
>the sewers are more secret :^ )
>>344567894
Sounds really like a huge hyperbole when most people and even the content creators for WoW repeatedly says that it's the worst it has been in and constantly points out the faults with the game.
please screencap, would be kinda funny to see what people said.

Ah I see. I was thinking of the original 1h versions but they got changed to dual 2hs apparently.
I'd have to see with tmog armor (might get opinions on some ideas / current one) but yeah probably Untamed Blades or Twin Ashkandis. Blackwing Lair had some sick 2h weapons visually.
I think there is one from Madness of Deathwing that might be cool too

Everything about them was shit on regardless.

Worgen casters are pretty cool considering how rare they are.
Was considering making a Worgen mage or spreist or something.
>want to start playing again
>can't decide what server
why are 99% of the servers shit with virtually no immediate way to tell how good they are?

Arcane mage. Technically. But only in top end gear surrounded by other arcane mages.

From a technical standpoint Draenor was made to test out completely new tech.
Sure, you hate Garrisions, but it tested out the ability to instance server an entire, modifiable area of the world map to each individual person
Garrison missions tested out the ability to add the mobile phone functionality to the game (yes, there will be an app for legion)
out in the world they added "assault" quests which work completely different than normal quest and would have required a very large and very isolated area to test
they also added individually tracked rare spawns that give rare loot only once to each player
they added fucking unheard of multi-tap, across fucking factions, scaling health, with personally generated loot
shit like mythic dungeons, flexible scaling raids being just changed to "normal" or "heroic" and cranked the scales to accomodate anyone from 10-40 players
they added fucking personal loot also
they took the timeless isle idea and placed it in the main world to see if that shit would work
they added tons of shit like integrated cross realm party searches
in reality draenor was chosen to bee a side thing with nostalgia pandering because they were dumping all their chips on the table and if it fucking blew up in their face they can just make it go away. They were working on Cataclysm level changes, without the resulting cataclysmic effect
and it fucking worked.

Would've been underwhelming since you could raid Kara and get Gorehowl.
Besides, in and of itself Gorehowl wasn't a very impressive weapon. Grom made it worth wielding.

You fucking what
Did I just imagine doing the Fangs of the Father questline, then?
>>344562803
Shalamayne would've been a really good choice for Warriors too.

undead spriest to be exact
shadow and undead just contrasts so interestingly with the priest class
