Pet Peeve: The Undying

There was a lot to expand upon, which is why they take up more time. We didn’t know much at all about Kul Tiras except they like boats, so an expansion of their culture and a telling of a story of how Daelin’s death broke the Kingdom apart was interesting.

Similarly, seeing the Zandalari shown for the first time since MoP, how they commit fully to their own loa and think themselves perfect owners of a rotting empire required some time.

I don’t see what more can be added that isn’t just ‘more assets’.

Let’s just say I was very glad to be in driving lesson that day. Car have the climatisation ;D (No, going back home was absolute hell, and with my colleague and I’s luck, we got all the possible troubles of public transportation.)

That is… honestly slightly odd. Usually you have some problems like overheating beforehand but to overheat once and instantly break? But I have seen / heard of cases where someone bought a completely new one, to have it overheat once a week in and break.

Hope you do have the money to replace it. Better your graphicscard than your harddrive!

As much as I think Azshara’s a badass, I think it’d get pretty old with all the underwater stuff, and I’m a fan of Vashj’ir.
That said, Azshara should’ve been the final boss of BfA, considering her power.

If I believe the Computer Guy, she survived long after the time where the rest of her range (unsure on the english here, other graphic cards of her generation/kind) had died pitifully years prior. I had the card for six or seven years, and most do not survive four so eh.
And yeah, better that than the rest! I should have enough to replace it, but it’s really a bad couple of months for it to happens. (Driving license formations are expensive as hell, argh)

They could vary it up. Just look at how varied pandaria’s zones are and that was just “an island”. It’s not like it was Jade Forest the entire time.

Idk, look at the Broken Isles. I’m sure blizzard can pull out anything from their behinds after that.

They could probably invent things, yes. Blizzard could probably set an entire expansion in Redridge Mountains - but the important question is why they should.

Because someone at Blizzard really loves Redridge, so lore be damned, this must now happen!

I imagine thats how alot of decisions are made.

Because we were teased with Nazjatar since WC3.

Are you prepared for when Ny’Alotha becomes a patch zone and its litterally just a flat piece of land with four tentacles and half a citadel.

Because we are only shown the outskirts of it.

Bzzzt. Wrong answer.

What story is there to tell that is not already being told? The focus on lore (ie worldbuilding) these days at the expense of story is actively making fiction worse.

How do Naga sleep? The right answer isn’t “We need to find out immediately” but “Does it tell a good story if we know?”

At this point? Yes. Yes I am.

I mean, you could have said that for the broken isles as well. Hell, you could have said that for the entire Legion expansion as a whole.

I legit don’t care how naga sleep, I was just joking about that earlier. I imagine trying to put the duvet covers on underwater would be a nightmare though.

Tbh, had they stuck to the original Broken isles lore, it should have made an appearance in a Azashara-themed expansion, along with Nazjatar.

It had more relevance to that than the legion after the events of frozen throne.

I agree. It would have been better than what they did.

Would have been swell. The legion and the ending we got in legion should have been reserved for one of, if not the last expansion.

I expect them to… Not portray the mystery of Nyalotha good… But basically ruin it. :frowning:

I’m using it as an example, not an attack. There are lots of people - particularly more so in recent fiction - who would look at a story of how pride leads to the downfall of an otherwise unassailable empire due to the actions of saboteurs and finding allies across strange places, and criticise it because there isn’t enough time spent describing how Naga sleep.
