Sargeras just disagrees with the other Titans on how to deal with the Titan Eggs/Planets getting corrupted by the actual big bad Void Lords/Old One Masters to make anti-Titans. He wants to wipe the slate clean and start from scratch while they want to try to uncorrupt them while farting out more Titan Eggs. His Burning Legion is just anyone he could scrap together to level the playing field of him vs everyone.

IMO probably for the best. Another demons expansion would be fucking retarded.

In my most honest opinion, I wish the next expansion would be something that isn't focused around one major evil. Perhaps an expansion that focuses on the world going through a "tranquil" phase, and only dealing with some lesser local evils, like a group of dragons, a bandit uprising, some shit going down with some mages, just a cluster of things like that. Bring the feel back to the Vanilla days when there was more shit going on and not some overly-emphasized grand scheme for once.

End of mop you beat up garrosh and everyone wants to kill him but demi gods are like nah he dindu nuffin.
A bronze dragon is like yeah your right and so a black dragon with a turban tells the 2 of them to go back in time on draenor to make an army to kill the legion.
Garrosh kills the bronze dragon about 2 seconds after they arrive in past draenor garrosh then meets his father and tells all the orcs about future tech and that green is bad. They make an army of all the orcs and make a dark portal that goes to present azeroth and invade.
We go in kill everything in our way including garrosh and archimonde aka big bad 3. Past guldan escapes to present azeroth.
Now legion. Guldan summons a bajillion demons on the broken shore where the tomb of big bad 1 is and a bunch of good guys die like varian ysera tirion. Guldan steals illidans body tries to rez big bad 1 into. Meanwhile we were rezzing illidan and we beat up guldan so our rez happens first. Illidan now lives and kills guldan.
And now with this raid we all run into the tomb beat up people kill big bad 2 and illidan is like we need to kill everyone so he summons big bad planet next to ours.

cry more. The burning legion was never any scary or threatening.

Unless you wanted the legion to be some story ending plot device I can't imagine why you'd complain. There are always a bigger fish.

This is only semi correct. Sargeras had been focusing so much on destroying Azeroth after conquering hordes and lands of demons to turn into his army, that he did not know what had actually caused the Old God infestation of Azeroth (planets?). During the time period of this expansion, it seems that the Void Lords have been discovered over all.

Sargeras himself is in fear and literally driven mad at this point because despite his Titan power, there are literally multiple entities in their existent that are so fucking godly powerful they literally just consume and spawn tendril gods that infest planets without trying. Remember, that Titans died JUST fighting Old Gods on Azeroth. Sargeras at this point, has lost the support of his lietuenants, being Archimonde and Kil'Jaeden who are now fucking dead.

We don't know if he is going to go crazy, abandon his task, or turn into some pussified raid boss somehow 20 people can kill.

To be honest, I feel that Sargeras after watching the burning legion fall for centuries to the forces on Azeroth, will turn to them and end up making peace, granting them deity like power to hunt the Old Gods and subsequently void lords.

Fuck.

I'm talking lore-wise friend. I'm talking when Azeroth was initially under the assault of the ravaging elementals and then the void gods. Remember there's dead titan corpse in, I think Duskwood? I don't remember exactly but the lore tells of how Titans died just fighting Void Gods on Azeroth.

Sargeras killing the entire pantheon of titans came later.

It's not so much been determined that Sargeras has been manipulated/corrupted like every other character in the series.

It's more like Sargeras had an enemy and fought it for centuries with utmost focus to destroy the Old Gods, and essentially just decimate all planets to ensure they couldn't survive. Then, he discovered what actually caused the Old Gods and just realized that he killed the pantheon, has been trying to destroy the planets the Old Gods infested, and all for nothing. There are these huge nearly immortal beings that put the pantheon to shame. They are not creatures who act out of logic or ration. They just purely exist causing havoc as is their nature, and the Void Gods are the spawn from their havoc.

Sargeras built an entire army to try to stop what he essentially thought was a small army of Ants, but now he realized it's so much more and he has nothing more he can do. His army is also gone.

I see this all the time. After WoW released somewhat shortly, Blizzard stated they would no longer release Warcraft RTS games. Starcraft and the Warcraft RTS directly competed, and now they had games in all different genres with dedicated communities. Also WC3 multiplayer while fun as fucking shit was pretty unbalanced.

Remaster of WC 1-3 is already on its way

I think Blizzard wants to do WC4 because it's obvious it would sell like crazy, probably close to D3 numbers, but I don't think Blizzard has any idea of how they would do it
>>
>>381253252
In a way it's more like they made it smaller not bigger. The WC1 map does represent a tiny portion of the world (because azeroth was basically a city-state then, not the planet or continent) like it does now. It was also more to scale with what a real portion of that land would actually be like. That's not a slight on WoW not being daggerfall big, because even WC2 makes the world seem smaller when you look at it's map.

Holy fuck thats so fucking bad it hurts. Dranei were a mistake. Wow has gone full Starcraft(not that a Starcraft MMO would be bad).

Vanilla servers when?
>>
>>381253550
Well it has raiding for one.

8-player parties, 2.5s GCD, console support, and SE outright stating they "don't want to make content harder than creator" kind of killed my hopes of XIV having anything challenging. That's not to say less difficult content is inherently a bad thing I'm sure there are plenty of people happy with the way XIV tunes its encounters, but with the dripfeed of endgame content in HW I don't see the value proposition in paying 15 bucks a month for 1-2 weeks of progression and then like an hour or two of farm every week until the next big update.

You know, you are right. I tried to remember the lore of the giant armor that was found on Azeroth, but I stand corrected.

Have you seen the way they run the game now? It practically costs them nothing to maintain

>make expansions earlier and earlier

They're entire business model relies around the people that get the new expansion and play for a month then give up. It basically costs them nothing to run and it prints money because all the cost has now been front loaded to the customer.

Okay I know you hate WoW, and nobody on /v/ will blame you for that, but come on. We know Draenor sucked a shit, and Wrath was the cause of all current problems. But shit, at least we have been guaranteed that Legion will receive 4 major raids.

It's the exact same as Vanilla, and only 2 less than BC which had raid tiers split between 2 dungeons. And let's not pretend Tempest Keep was fantastic, nor was Serpentshrine. Even Mount Hyjal got people pretty steamed, but not as bad.

>stats don't matter, all gear is just tailored to your spec
Only in the sense that a cloak will have whatever your primary stat is instead of having STR/AGI/INT cloaks all be different. Secondary stats are fixed on gear and priority is still a thing and it matters since quite a few classes have secondaries that outweigh mainstat point for point.

>specs don't matter, you just change it on a whim right in the middle of a dungeon
can't change spec during M+ or in the middle of a raid encounter, you can change between raid fights but that has been the case since MoP. It's arguably much harder now to swap specs on the fly because of the time commitment in maintaining multiple artifact weapons and gear sets (if their stat priorities differ).

>raiding doesn't matter, it's just however many people you want to run with
Mythic has been fixed at 20 for two expansions now.

Gally is part of the Rogue Class Hall quests.

You break into his home, steal his keys while he's relaxing in a sauna, rob him of an actual love potion, then take it to Noggenfogger so he can clone it and make you both rich.

...It wasn't a very efficient use of an entirely new model and he bugs standing up instead of lying down.

The very idea of them actually crapping out a new expansion pack confounds me.
I don't even know what to expect with a potential WoW: [subtitle] of Argus.
Would they add new races/class or just make the cap 120 and do the same shit as legion?
Do they still get a lot of money from China?

2 friends got legion, hit the cap and quit, pretty fast.
I didn't understand why and they wouldn't really give me a clear answer.
I played it fairly recently to bide time until the Steam Summer Sale, 6 days of time left.
I understand now why they quit.
The dripfeed systems are out of control.
I hit 110 and that doesn't mean anything.
You need to power the ever loving shit out of your weapon and practically need to do every damn quest they made for legion to really even get started.
Forced loremaster is what it equates to.
You get resources, but unlike WoD where you can just wait and generate it in a pile you click every other day, you actually have to acquire the resources though questing and shit.
It never seems like enough to really make any progress.

WoD was like a casual shallow mobile game most of the time.
Legion is like a mobile game built around micro-transactions that haven't been implemented.

Seriously, everything post W3 sucks storywise and Arthas was definitely the best thing to come out of Warcraft
>>
>>381246313
On one hand this is dumb as fuck since we were trying to prevent portals for the Legion to invade Azeroth with the entire expansion.

On the other, if the portal allows perma death to Demons since they're basically "in" the nether they could theoretically smite the shit out of the Legion permanently, no resurrection bullshit.

In all honesty though, I don't think Azeroth should triumph in a flat out war with Legion. Much like how Azeroth really should have lost to Arthas back in WotLK and his trillion deep army of Undead.

But hey, Blizzard, ect.

It was just gambling for the sake of gambling. Arthas had an addiction that couldn't be helped until it was too late.

Did he need to hedge everything on making 20 or some super strong DKs? No, he could have easily swept Northrend and eventually everywhere of the living.

His compulsion got the best of him, the poor addicted fool.

The game's life (relatively speaking) was extended indefinitely when it should have died six or seven years ago. Pure greed transformed Blizzard and naturally it was reflected in their product.

I think back to the Wrath gameplay trailer, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRbSkwGvgPE even by this point you could still feel the passion booming from them. To compare that to what came out in Cataclysm and onward is such a joke, I say that as a guy that enjoyed MoP.

It's too streamlined, I wouldn't say it's simpler though, there's a giant checklist of tedious bullshit to do that doesn't allow for simple stuff to even take precedence anymore. Old wow had a wild west feel to it that probably will never come back.

Then you get people complaining about PvP disrupting their objective based gameplay. Remember how well all the old world PvP objectives worked? Silithus deliveries, Plaguelands towers, Hellfire and Zangarmarsh capture points, Terokkar towers, that one town in Nagrand, Dragonmaw vs Dwarves dailies in Twilight Highlands, Alliance vs Horde dailies in Krasarang? Shit's been tried lots of times over the years. Every single time adding objectives just means people take turns doing their objectives and ignore PvP.

So why did Illidan do that? Is he going to try to destroy argus once and for all? or its probably going to involve the Army of Light?

Everyone kinda forgets that when WOW came out Star Wars Galaxies was a serious thing and could have eventually killed wow. Once Sony bought the game and destroyed it with incompetent changes it gave wow the chance to dominate the MMO genre.

organic world pvp is dead for good though

>battegrounds with instant "press button to queue up" join mechanic exist
all the people who just want to fight other players use these instead of open world pvp
>flight masters, flying mounts, city portals and dungeon finder exist
people dont have to travel through the open world as much. less people around the world = less opportunities for pvp to happen.

organic pvp usually had two possible ways to start
either this:
>bunch of bored people want to pvp
>they group up and attack some enemy town
>preferably high-population, low-level and lightly guarded area
>fuck shit up until the enemy faction starts their own group to kick you out
>enjoy the fight

or this:
>meet other faction player during leveling
>kill him
>he calls his friends
>they gank and corpsecamp you
>you call your friends to kill his friends
>friends call more friends of friends
>escalation

both have been pretty much removed from the game a long time ago
now the only world pvp that occasionally happens is people raiding capitals to kill faction leaders for the achievements

They already said Artifact weapons was a Legion exclusive deal, and probably won't be back for the next expansion.

I had hopes until I recall them saying the same thing about Order Halls. And they brought the worst elements of that back into something far, far worse then slapped AP on top of it.

And if the next theme is another green fire orc/demonfest, I'm pretty sure that'll be the end of it.

Shit like Burning Crusade was a mostly Horde expansion, especially with how it fleshed out Orc lore, brought the Blood Elves to their side and had a heavy focus on them, and in general had a few specific heroes from WC2 brought back like Kargath Bladefist. Alliance had some spacegoats that were loosely tied to the legion at the time and a half elf half human saying that he was Turalyon's son that didn't do anything.

WoD was entirely focused on Orcs, Cata had a huge emphasis on Thrall, a horde hero, all that shit. There are definitely expansions that lean on certain factions. Legion just shows it by being far more on the nose about it than any previous expansion, to the point where Alliance get specific quests like the Anduin Broken Shore questline that the Horde have absolutely no equivalent to.
