Transcended outcome would have been being able to murder her next to her dead sister.
She’d become a wisp and tell on us unfortunately.
Even better. Let them know of our evil deeds.
And when I get apprehended by the Kaldorei police, simply tell them that you have a deal with the Brokers in Shadowlands for NE soul whale blubber.
I mean, I can absolutely get why an inhabitant of Azeroth would be pissed off with the Titans. If someone manages to find out any of the following:
- Odyn’s shenanigans
- Loken’s shenanigans
- The Titanic origin of Sargeras
- Algalon’s shenanigans
- The nature of the Forge of Origination
- The Titanic origins of the Mogu
- The experiments of Uldir
then I think I can understand why they would react by freaking out and deciding the Titans must be absolute bastards and shouldn’t have any control over Azeroth’s fate. That’s the first step down the Primalist pipeline.
But the onus is on Blizzard to actually explain this stuff in lore. Fanon explanations should not be necessary to fill in the holes.
Toss in the dragon aspects for good measure.
“man these Titanically empowered lizards keep turning evil and threatening the entire planet in the process, wonder if there’s a common factor involved.”
Isn’t this semi-common knowledge? I could swear he’s being referred to as the “Dark Titan” quite often, and there are even ingame books relating him to the Pantheon?
But yeah - that’s one thing. The whole list would make anyone get fired up.
The list of Titanic mess is also the reason to join the Old Gods. Or the Forge of Origination alone, simply because even turning into a twilight draconid is better than being cleansed with fire on a stone golem’s whim. But sadly, ever since Uldum was discovered, none of the factions ever pondered the idea of blowing the pyramid up for… reasons.
Most of the “Titanic mess” was caused by the Old Gods cursing/influencing Titanforged tho…
Or Life magic in the case of the Gronn, Ogron, Ogres and orcs.
Anyway without Titans or Titanforged bieng everywhere there’d only be world of Trollcraft on a void-corrupted Azeroth.
Most. But not all. Uldum, for one, is a thing in itself, and the justified fear of annihilation, especially after Algalon, would logically mean for all the factions to at least have a plan of capturing or destroying it.
Lots of primalist talk going on here…
Titans: Our only way to kill an Old God is to tear it from the planet, leaving a massive wound in the world and cursing the land to be infected by its vengeful ghost for millenia to come.
10-25 Monster-chugging raiders: what if we just stabbed it REALLY hard instead though
GUESS WHO WAS RIGHT
IT AIN’T THE BIG SKY WIZARDS
There was a consensus about ppl only killing their avatars/physical bodies/whatever, but not removing them completely. Until recently, that is, but hopefully the new Xal’atath quest chain will make the situation somewhat clear. It’d direly suck to play a cultist and suddenly find out that the Old Gods are dead for good tho.
Thank god Blizzard will be forced to actually write something semi-coherent and interesting now? Keep them dead I say.
Twilight Hammer people are already insane so the actual death of the Old Gods wouldn’t really impact them all that much.
…but also them resurrecting the Old Gods would be another needle they could thread, even if it’s just retreading the same ground as Cho’Gall in the Med’an comics.
“At the hour… of our last death… we usher in… twitters coming…”
“your heart… will laugh… in a weird way…”
“Elenthas serves… at the consumer’s table… three lies… will he offer you”
“When the 15th Shop Item comes… we will return…”
I honestly cannot fathom how people can enjoy this sort of stuff, I would rather be forced to read 10 fantasy books about the F*y than deal with yet another Expansion that gets hijacked by the Void to make it all about its weird r/atheist-esque ‘everything is nihilism’ philosophy.
Begging WoW players on my hands and knees to immediately stop enabling Blizzard’s godawful writing style that isn’t even suitable for 12-year olds because its so utterly brainrotting. Its entirely reactionary, entirely impulsive and never makes any sort of coherent sense.
You will drown in the circle of stars…
Its an underwater throneroom called the circle of stars. Bravo.
One aspect about Prophecy, Farseer-ing, Divining and so on and so forth I particularly don’t like is their vagueposting. They aren’t adressed to the characters in the universe, have you ever seen an NPC having heard them, mulling over it along with its source? No, they are meant for us behind the screen to get some “IT’S SPECULATIN’ TIME!” for the next 1-2 years.
Oh who’s heart and who’s crater is this about? Who’s third death hasn’t yet happened? Let’s see, is there a place on Azeroth that looks vaguely star-shaped? etc…
“Your wallet will explode”
The sheer enjoyment that so many WoW players get from it has led me to the irrefutable, undeniable and depressing conclusion that most of them consider it good and or intelligent writing and therefore we are unlikely to ever see an improvement so long as they can keep making nonsensical whispers that get 500k youtube views each within a week.
Knaak’s WoW books didn’t die for this.
