I made the title of the thread this way to not mislead people and to ensure that everyone who wants to respond is aware that this is still early given that TWW Alpha hasn’t even started yet.
From what we have with the DF release, given that we see a TWW release by Aug/Sep 2024, it will be a bit less than 2 years of DF and TWW’s features were announced in November 2023. However, we were told that they aim to have a “faster than usual” expansion release cycle for the Worldsoul Saga.
I believe that with the above-mentioned TWW release, announcing Midnight’s features at Blizzcon 2025 will make it a bit late (more than a year ) and will essentially make TWW even longer than DF instead.
Do you believe that Midnight’s features will be announced earlier similar to how Legion was announced during Gamescom in August? What is everyone’s thoughts on this?
This is when I think they will do it. Perhaps for a spring / summer 2026 release (which would be “Faster than Usual”). I certainly don’t think they can do 1 year expansions so I think they’ll be 16 - 20 months.
Unless they get really good at creating enough content quickly. This is something they’ve not done well in the past. Legion did a reasonable job with content but this was them throwing everything at it after WoD was abandoned.
Can they throw everything at 3 expansions in a row?
I think the expansion will be a year and a half long and that the features etc will be announced around the year mark, possibly just before, in order to get the beta going too.
That was what I was wondering. By no means do I propose or hope for the expansion to be rushed.
What I am trying to predict is when we’ll see more of the features, which even if TWW is meant to be as long as DF, Blizzcon 2025 is a bit too late and I assume they’d want to keep the Worldsoul Saga momentum going.
