Only 6? How do they keep making less of these.

 

[ScribbleD]

Eye of Azshara is a 5-man? Lol

 

[cdyhybrid]

I can't wait for them to bring back Arthas in the next expansion after this and then blow up the world in the one after that.

You mean Bolvar. Wrath of the Second Lich King!

 

[Apathy]

Ok violet hold, dalaran needs to invest in better security in their prison

 

[Linkark07]

Only have bad memories of Violet Hold.

 

[dave is ok]

Violet Hold with ALL NEW PRISONERS guys

 

[Chinese Cartoons]

Violet Hold again as one of the dungeons....

Jesus Blizz...

Seriously lol.

 

[akileese]

So if we're getting Malfurion from the nightmare does that mean everything Knaak wrote is officially retconned?

 

[Caffeine]

lmao violet hold

 

[kirblar]

They said the same for WOD tho.

They came back, and then they left when the game turned into Farmville at 100.

 

[Nokterian]

Still getting i don't care..i keep playing it no matter what.

 

[Horp]

Yeah, I feel like Blizzard doesn't understand why all those survival/crafting pseudo-MMO's are so popular. You start those games with nothing, yet you're wonder-struck by what a handful of players have made. There's value in feeling like you're part of something else's story - whether that something is a guild, clan or even player.

Nail on the head. You should work for blizzard.

 

[TheYanger]

The Illidan that died in BT?

She took his corpse back there and imprisoned it or some shit. idk at least they acknowledge he died.

 

[Zornack]

"We want dungeons to be important and not just things you do for the first month then never again. So, here's some concept art and lore!"

 

[Einchy]

Good thing they aren't rehashing old dungeons again.

 

[Manoko]

Man artifacts sound so awesome. This all seems really really ambitious, shit is totally getting cut.

Yeah, modesty, realism and respect for the Warcraft lore is being cut here.

 

[Neofx]

Only 6? How do they keep making less of these.

This list doesn't include the 3 before, so 9 that we know of atm.

 

[Jira]

Oh god...Violet Hold...make it stop.

 

[Kain]

Violet hold, come on, people...

 

[vilmer_]

Memories of Violet Hold.

 

[dimb]

No, apparently Maiev stored him in a dungeon along with the other demon hunters and he went and freed them.

I can't work out what Gul'dan and Illidan would do together though. How does freeing Illidan benefit Gul'dan?

 

[Badosh]

Violet hold was one of the worst dungeons of Wrath...

 

[Enthus]

You mean Bolvar. Wrath of the Second Lich King!

We resurrect Arthas as a follower for our Ordergarrisonhall and he helps us kill Bolvar while we wield a lightning Frostmourne. Then Anduin becomes Lich King.

 

[Hari Seldon]

Hopefully this Order hall isn't extending the farmville shit into this expansion.

 

[dave is ok]

Violet Hold is literally just because it already exists in Dalaran and survived the CTRL+C/CTRL+V into Broken Isles

 

[Lumine]

Haha Violet Hold again...

And yeah I agree that I prefer a storyline that doesn't treat me or my character as the main saviour/hero when the world is filled with other players that get told the same thing. It breaks immersion rather than add to it.

 

[Verus]

Violet Hold again as one of the dungeons....

Jesus Blizz...

 

[Cpt.Underpants]

She took his corpse back there and imprisoned it or some shit. idk at least they acknowledge he died.

Huh, I didn't know this at all. Curious as to why she would do that. Must be a trophy thing

 

[Captain_Wreckus]

Blizzard - the MMO recycling ideas company.

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

"We want dungeons to be important and not just things you do for the first month then never again. So, here's some concept art and lore!"

Right. Getting zero information about that statement which is all people care about. Of course there will be new dungeons, the question is how are you going to change the design to keep them meaningful.

Whelp, yeah Violet Hold. Lol.

 

[Nirolak]

Anduin looks so hilarious:

I can't work out what Gul'dan and Illidan would do together though. How does freeing Illidan benefit Gul'dan?

The last time Gul'dan freed someone, he just ended up getting killed by them. He doesn't think these things through very well.

 

[Hupsel]

omg show videos instead of talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk

 

[Doukou]

This list doesn't include the 3 before, so 9 that we know of atm.

Oh really, my bad. Thanks for the info.


Ghost ship looks cool, but really violet hold?

 

[Rapstah]

I have literally beaten Violet Hold over a hundred times across my characters.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

No not Violet Hold.

Please. I don't want to do it again.

 

[CHC]

So far no mention of the fact that WoD was awful and that there is no player-to-player interaction.

Yep, they lost the plot on this one for sure.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

What? No. When I play minecraft I don't go 'Wow I'm part of this guys story!', when I play minecraft I do it to have my own adventures and build my own things. The customization of the artifacts kinda mimics that, you choose your specialization, how it looks, etc.

 

[powersurge]

Artifacts seem like a terrible idea. Everyone runnin around with the same weapons pretty much. More alt time line bull. Wth I thought Illidan was dead and not just "dead".

Also as a rogue it seems like they might as well chuck the class all together. We didn't perform that great this expansion they left assassination to rot. Monks and now demon hunters chipping away and marginalizing our class flavor.

 

[Nymerio]

Do people actually care about the dungeon lore stuff the guy is talking about? I quit wow with cataclysm but from time to time I get the itch to go back again. Why aren't they talking about what kind of encounters you can look forward to? I mean the lore is nice to have but who ultimately cares?

 

[Bregor]

I don't mind them bringing back Illidan, as I never felt his story was done justice in BC. But Blizzard seriously needs to start working on new lore instead of retreading the old stories. They need to be planning new stories now, as making them good requires them establish characters and plot lines now, not just before they are used.

 

[Einchy]

Anduin looks so hilarious:

MoP was hard on him.

 

[RE_Player]

Take your bets, full priced expansion?

 

[ANDS]

They are REALLY focusing on those two females in the front row aren't they.

 

[Liferebooted]

Take your bets, full priced expansion?

$40 ...

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

This is a college powerpoint presentation.

And now Raids.

 

[ScribbleD]

Motherfucker? 3 raids is enough?

 

[V-Faction]

I've seen a fair number of gripes & grumbles.

Expansion Guaranteed Success Confirmed!

 

[Dicer]

So far no mention of the fact that WoD was awful and that there is no player-to-player interaction.

Yep, they lost the plot on this one for sure.

Do people really expect them to stand up there and beat themselves down to make you happy?

Get over it, move forward not back

 

[dimb]

Take your bets, full priced expansion?

$60.

 

[Kadin]

I think I missed the part that was going to make me want to continue running dungeons after a few weeks. Didn't he say something about that being an issue early on? What was the solution exactly?
