Big role or not I cannot stand the energy they put off. They're insufferable.

Big role or not I cannot stand the energy they put off. They're insufferable.
I'm very excited about T&E hosting the Q&A. I'm not actively subbed (attending BlizzCon, though), but I appreciate how positive they are about the game and their very rational approach to discussing WoW/Blizzard news. If nothing else, they always make me want to play WoW, which inevitably brings me back between sub lapses. Hope to meet them both at some point during the convention.

My biggest issue with them is what Ano mentioned earlier. During 8.0 and 8.1 (and I'm paraphrasing here) they were very dismissive of the playerbase's issues with BFA and how it was proceeding at the time. Essentially telling the players they were overreacting and it "wasn't that bad" and it came off super boot lick-y and I guess it worked considering their new hosting duties.
I certainly think that is a fair criticism. His/their enthusiasm can certainly seem like blind loyalty to the brand when things are at their worst. I dropped off for a while as soon as my guild killed Heroic G'huun in October 2018 primarily because the game was in a pretty bad state and at that time. Eventually though I kept watching their videos and saw that things were improving and came back in time to help my guild finish up Heroic BoD and stayed subbed until a few weeks after we finished up Heroic EP since I wanted to play some other games. I dunno, I just like how genuinely excited they get about WoW. It makes me want to play and see the game through the same lens that they do. Certainly not for everyone though.
Hearthstone Blizzcon hints to a Lich King Xpac.

:In case of emergency meme:
Where there is smoke there is fire, and I think we have enough things coming together that pretty much make it likely that is what the next xpac is going to be.
There's definitely a lot of stuff leading us towards some kind of overall "Death" theme for the next expansion, but I'm still not entirely buying it being Northrend 2.0.
I don't think it has to necessarily be something based in Northrend to still be considered a "Lich King" expansion. I think Bolvar will be a major plot point and figure in the story they have coming but it doesn't have to be in Northrend, in fact I hope it has nothing to do with Northrend I don't really need to go back there.
(fake) Leak season is at a fever pitch and you think we should stop now? Hell naa
Something's happening

OH SHIT.
this is the link for it: https://gear.blizzard.com/media/cat...f69b20/1/9/19-wow-bolvar-fine-art-gallery.png
occam's razor wins at this point
sure, the whole thing could still be an elaborate hoax and it's absolutely not outside the realm of possibility that someone on the store team is having a lot of fun
but this is way too much smoke at this point. bring on my lich king 2

right now with that possible name we're...
Beyond Two Worlds.
though if that's the name it's a bit repetitious

I think Bolvar will play a role, even in 8.3 cause of the foreshadowing (alliance side) in 8.0.

There's already a thread about the original incarnation of that leak (with the merch prices attached).
OP
OP
I'm not interested in making another thread, tbh. This is the one I want to handle and the drive by posts are too annoying. Friday is already going to be bad enough.
Well, that's going to happen no matter what and there's going to be a lot of it this coming weekend (not unwarranted, mind you).
Ah. Nevermind then.
OP
OP
There's plenty of reason to be angry and people are justified in it. However, there's threads for that specifically already and I feel that clogging up the new threads/OTs whatever with drive by posting does nothing to help the situation and derails what the threads were originally made for.

In case of emergency, break glass
they'd be smart to like.... reference this in a new cutscene. Like a Sylvanas/Bolvar version of the Guldan/Illidan Legion prelaunch scene
They should walk out onstage and be like "We know you guys are upset, but we planned for this" then a big prop frozen throne with "In case of emergency" gets rolled out and they break it open for the trailer to play
"We said she wouldn't be Garrosh 2.0. We never said anything about Arthas 2.0"
OP
OP
Go ahead and get it out of your system e.g. dogpile me but I still don't think they're taking Sylvanas down the villain road
there's gonna be some justification, words and deeds tweet, something that's like "AHA! WE TrIcKeD you!!!"
No lich queen. please don't ruin one of your more interesting characters.

She doesn't play wow anymore. Hell, last I saw before unsubbing she was barely posting anything on youtube, maybe she moved to twitch.
