PTR Spoiler/Discussion Thread (Part 3)

I mean, my gnomes will be very happy, but I think I’d rather have a Rootlands patch.

But who knows maybe they’ll surprise us!

I have waited so long for Undermine! I’m excited to see how the four Cartel factions square up, because this will almost certainly be big lore for Goblin RP characters across Azeroth.

I thought there were more than 4 Cartels??

Most likely there are, but these are the major contenders.

The showcase mentioned 4 sub-factions for the player character to swear allegiance to during the patch; Bilgewater, Steamwheedle, Blackwater (Raiders), and the Venture Co. It’ll be cool to see whether the Venture Co. evolves into its own official Cartel, rather than just the offshoot company of planet-hating profiteers it currently is.

Venture Company has always been a cartel though.

You’re right, I stand corrected on that. The Venture Company is indeed a Cartel - I wrongly thought Company/Cartel was mutually exclusive.

I say this as someone who cares very little for goblins… but frankly, it’s about time we go there. I’m surprised we didn’t visit in Cataclysm if I’m being entirely honest.

Sure thing grandpa lets get you back into the retirement home

as someone who cares a lot for goblins i just hope undermine wont get the suramar treatment again. massive city scape with little rp movement due to ungodly mob density :pensive:

Goblins should get to the back of the line, WHERE IS AN ACTUAL GNOME PATCH?

Unless gnomes make up 1/3th of the goblin patch.

That’s 100% gonna happen, sadly.

It happened with Mechagon too :frowning: Atleast Undermine looks to be better than Mechagon fml.

I vaguely recall roleplaying with you, as Veshj, when I was in Southfury Marauders.

But can’t for the live of me remember if you were a memberry too :thinking:

Pish posh, you had the diaper-gnome patch not too long ago!*

so theres titan ruins and a butt load of old god blood in undermine.
i see no consequences of this amidst the cartel war.
i do not see gallywix pulling a garrosh.
nope.

I saw someone on twitter dot com compare Big G to the Orange Man, and I really hope the libbed up writers at Blizz don’t write in line with that.

i saw the same tweet and i genuinely hope the same right now. we do not need that kind of characterisation in wow. gallywix’s characters been butchered enough

I mean, other than Gally being Competent Sleazebag instead of Chaotic Sleazebag…

It’s not like Sylvanas where they completed 180d her character arc; Gally has always been a terrible person.
I literally played the Goblin starter zone the other day :sweat_smile:

oh for sure. he just used to be wrote with a bit more nuance to it. sure the gallywix that used to be fit enough to slug it out was cool but it was the same gallywix that uh…well. maldy and his daughter. nuff said.

Oh he is most definitely going to end up butchered a great deal more.

On a weekly basis, one might say!
