Honestly what really makes it disjointed is what comes after 8.0. It seemed like they were setting up something interesting with Ashvane's machinations and Sylvanas's ulterior motives... and then in 8.1 the whole thing just goes off the rails with Sylvanas becoming irredeemably evil and Ashvane turning into a pawn, and then they were just desperate to move us from plot point to plot poitn without giving anything enough time to be properly fleshed out.It's funny because from the Alliance perspective the Horde literally did some unforgivable shit.
But honestly, that's why I think the story this time was good. It was just too split along faction lines and so, unless you played through the leveling stuff as both Horde and Alliance, most players didn't get the details of it all. Which results in everyone thinking it's a disjointed mess.
we got heroic Vexiona and Ilgynoth down last night.
Vexiona can be thrown straight into a fire.
Hell yeahI've had this thought numerous times over the last 15 years, and I'm sure as hell having it lately: I am really thankful for World of Warcraft.
It sounds weird, but being stuck at home because of everything going on for the next four weeks + the EXP boost has caused me to re-sub after months away, and boy am I glad I did. Also have my brother playing so I basically get to hang out with him long distance every evening, despite him being quarantined somewhere else.
Also dont know if anyone follows her, but this creator has fairly recently started making some tutorial videos that are well edited and researched. Probably the first wow content creator I've enjoyed in a long time

I mean...I really doubt we'd get a retcon of such a major event anytime soon...? lolI hope they retcon Saurfang.
I'm really bummed about what happened to him honestly.
First Cairne, then Vol'jin and now Saurfang.
Come on Blizzard.
How's the pandemic affecting your guilds? I've been noticing in mine we're having less people around lately. While I thought people would be on more during this it seems the opposite has happened and people are just not wanting to mess with WoW right now and are playing other games.
We've had a bunch of people state they just aren't up for it mentally right now, which... seems bad. I feel like this expansion has felt more like work you need to keep up with instead of being a fun distraction and people just don't want to fuck with it anymore. Many are playing other games, including FFXIV. I don't know, I guess I'm rambling a bit but it's just been an unexpected turn of events and I'm curious if others have seen anything similar.
I can't really speak to guilds, but I am personally finding it harder actually want to play during quarantine time than I was expecting. I've already got to the point this week where instead of using my ample work from home downtime to level alts or do dailies or whatever, I'm just not bothering to log in that much.
We don't know the purpose of everything that goes up on the CDN, particularly when it's encrypted. It's probably friends and family alpha, but it could just be staging files and not actually in use by anyone.Someone educate me. Each of these encrypted builds are being played by a closed Friends/Family audience already, right? Like, the Alpha's started, right?
If not, why ship all these successive builds?

Holy shit. That's even faster than I expected. I mean...you couldn't have had Rest for that entire stretch, right? Did you have Draught of Ten Lands and full heirlooms on? Any other xp boosts?I wasn't going to level anything else until the revamp but with this 100% exp thing going on I decided to at least do my Dark Iron Dwarf Paladin, went from level 20 to 65 in less than 3 hours of questing, lol wow. I had a cluster of quests I turned in and gained 3 levels off just those. Insane.
I'm inspired. Might take up my monk on the other faction. This is the phase of my life where I'm taking up alts I've already capped just to have them on the other faction. FML.Playing a monk with the daily buff plus the 100% xp buff feels like playing on a private server

Was running for mog
I hate this game. I already have this mount. THIS is the one you give me on my first transmog run?
you are lucky, my drops are for the completely wrong class.
I'm doing a run for a certain staff but only the sword that I need on my Warrior run keeps dropping and the staff I need keep dropping on my warrior runs.
Damn you RNG
He's not allowed to stream the Alpha though, right?Well, Asmongold is returning April 2nd, meaning alphas is probably next week.
wat, really?No, you are once Blizzard lets people into Alpha. There's no NDA
Has that always been the case? I totally understand why it's a good thing to do, but I was under the impression F&F Alphas were always accompanied by strict NDAs
Streamers aren't jumping into friends and families alphas, at least not in meaningful numbers.Has that always been the case? I totally understand why it's a good thing to do, but I was under the impression F&F Alphas were always accompanied by strict NDAs
Gotcha. Wonder if an F&F is happening right now then?Streamers aren't jumping into friends and families alphas, at least not in meaningful numbers.
If a streamer is streaming alpha, it's not friends and families, but a broader alpha that these days is just part of the game's promotional strategy.
What about raiding with leashes VII and VIII ;(Legacy Loot Rules Coming to Legion Dungeons and Raids on Next Weekly Reset
