So it’s called “The War Within”, right? And we’re gonna pitch it as this big subterranean expansion. BUT! For the last patch, we’re going to go to the surface… Of ANOTHER planet!

I’ll be honest, Blizzard could retcon or contradict whatever the hell they want about Shadowlands and I wouldn’t give even a tenth of a damn.
My investment in anything that they introduced with that expansion is so low that I just don’t care. If making something half-interesting out of the Brokers requires trashing the foundation that Shadowlands built for them, great, so be it.

If it wasn’t shoved in our faces time after time after it’s done, I’d have agreed. But like this it kills the interest in the story entirely without any compensation.
The War was Within us all along.
Or maybe in Alleria idk.

This feels similar to “Battle for Azeroth” being advertised as the last big hurrah for faction war… only to end up fighting Naga, Azshara and N’zoth in patch two and three.

And Anduin, and maybe Thrall before his story got axed because we all laughed at the prospect of a rehashed shamanic impotency storyline.

Oh but it was. It killed any faction war from then on for peace at all cost.
Why do they keep doing this to him? You’d think someone would have noticed by then and just told them that it’s fine for Thrall to retire if they couldn’t come up with anything new for him.

"The Dimensius fight will involve players diving through space, dodging lasers and even planets being thrown."
I don’t think I’ve anything to add to this.
It’s the same as the char retirement IC. Very hard to cope with, especially after decades of playing him. Some ppl just don’t want the story to pause, not to mention end.
I understand. I can’t say that I approve but that is only because it is not my character, it is not my creation.
I’ve just seen too many legacy characters from entertainement overstaying their welcome. Fridging/Retiring them gracefully is a better outcome in my eyes than perpetually dragging them into the spotlight regardless of how little relevence and how complete by now their arc is.
How big are we, or how small are these planets?
Time to bring in some of AD Stormwind’s residents with their planetary orbs. Their time has come!

Yeah, Dimensius is basically them committing 100% to an FFXIV style final boss and seeing how it lands.

On one hand, Being reminded of Shadowlands…
On the other, uninstanced Tazavesh is awesome and I hope there’s a way for adventurers to get there and that it’s large enough to have RP in.
I mean Gallywix managed to get there when it was in the Shadowlands so, we’ll see.

I have no idea how we’re going to kill something the size of Stormwind, but it’ll make for excellent practice for the real thing.
Also hoping its model will drop as a Voidwalker skin for warlocks tbh.

I look to the line of cabinets in blizz HQ containing Warcraft 3 characters labelled.

Something we didn’t need to be reminded of, among other things… forgetting this alone was worth killing Gallywix.
