    There was a sidequest where you have to take a dying tree to rest. Alexstraza interacted there with Ysera. During the quest Alexsz learned from her that death can be peaceful.

    In the same way Kalecgos and Ebyssian had fleshed out stories to show why they were deserving of becoming the leader of their flights, I suspect Ysera had an expanded role for Merithra's story, but wasn't delivered as well

    • @laertesindeed
      @laertesindeed 9 месяцев назад +1

      Except...... there was "NEVER" any necessary and sufficient or even reasonable explanation for why Kalecgos should be leader of anything, and neither for ebyssian. There was "NEVER" anything about Magic or Earth that any of those two ever revealed or showed or explained or used or elevated or protected. I literally had to yell at my computer screen when doing the Kalecgos quest back then and having him say the ridiculous word of 'family' ..... because the frelling blue dragonflight is not about borg collective family slavery.... it is about MAGIC. MAGIC. It is amazing to me that the replacement writers did so much character assassination against titans by complaining about arcane magic while the blue dragonflight NEVER USED ANY MAGIC FOR THE STORY!!!!!

      Malfurion got sidelined because he was a beloved, strong (supposedly) male character from the good days of Warcraft. And writers have been moving away from that.. Will be slightly curious what Metzen will say about pushing woman in front of everything. Even in this last Amirdrassil scene, its ALL woman.
      There is one reason why Malfurion wasnt engaged in an Emerald Dream patch, and its current irl politics which has no place in a fantasy game.

    One thing I found noteworthy during the final chapter questline was that during your visit of various characters across the Dragon Isles prior to the big feast, you meet with the gnoll Mon-Ark who mentions that Decatriarch Wratheye (who we haven't seen mentioned since her escape at DF's launch) will want to corrupt Amirdrassil with decay magic so Mon-Ark is going to lead the gnolls there to protect it. Considiering that Amirdrassil is a whole zone now, I wouldn't be surprised if this is part of the epilogue questlines.

And they still haven't stopped with 10.25 bringing dynamic flight across the whole of Azeroth and follower dungeons which is amazing for people who struggle in pugs.

    I fell like epilogue robbed night elves from content and it's really depressing. Amidrassil was supposed to represent hope for the night elves, but for no reason it ended up on the dragon ilses, far from NE homelands. Blizzard has shown the burning of Teldrassil in CGI, many custscenes, in game cinematics, books and other media, but Amirdrassil appearance on Azeroth didn't even have its own quest. We got a short cutscene after it was all over Tree itself just appeared from nowhere without any cool visuals. When the blessing of the aspects stole a moment that should belonged to the manifesting Amirdrassil.

    I'm pretty sure Ysera not doing anything was kind of the point. We brought her back because Tyrande & co. felt that she was needed, but in fact, Merithra was the one who had to act all along, and Merithra's arc makes that very clear. We did not actually need Ysera, and Ysera tells Merithra as much--it was, however, nice for Ysera to be able to be there for her daughter while Merithra was going through all this. I thought it was very effective.

The whole “coming together as a family” thing would work if they felt like a family, but they didn’t.

    Ysera's story in Dragonflight was always simple and made sense - as long as you grind the Renown to unlock it.
    The entire reason we traded Malfurion was because the Emerald Dream was invaded and our primary entrance was blocked. So, we spoke to Ysers and got in through Ardenweald.
    Yes, it's completely contrived. At best, it exists just to make sure we understand Ardenweald and the Emerald Dream are connected.
    After that, Ysera has only stuck around to give pep talks to Merithra. They made sure we all knew that Ysera would be gone for good and this other character we don't really know would be the new Aspect of the green flight.
    Could they have done more with Ysera or shown her with Alexstrasza? Sure. Maybe the story would be better if they had. But the story they told isn't confusing. I expected to get Malfurion back before the end of the expansion. I will be surprised if he doesn't reappear in 10.2.5.

    • @Maria_Erias
      @Maria_Erias 8 месяцев назад

      If that's the case, this would have been a good opportunity to de-power Malfurion by having him use up a (greater or lesser) portion of his power to help bring Amirdrassil from the Emerald Dream into Azeroth. It could have involved Cenarius saying something like, "The birth of a new world tree will require a sacrifice, my son." And then Malfurion and Tyrande could have looked at each other before Malfurion turns back to Cenarius and says, "I am ready." Then Cenarius, Merithra, and Malfurion all glow, there's a flash, Amirdrassil gets born into Azeroth. Cenarius is left standing, Merithra puts a hand to her head, and Malfurion is slumped onto his knees. Tyrande goes to him, and when he stands up, his hair has changed to a silver-white color. Tyrande goes to him and puts her hand on his shoulder as he straightens up fully. There could have been some more dialogue about how it took the power of a WIld God, the Green Aspect, and the most powerful archdruid working together to bring about Amirdrassil, and how the essence of all three are now part of the tree.

    Releasing the features of the next patch two weeks after 10.2 shows that Blizzard just wants to get the rest of DF out of the way to get to TWW. It's like "we need to get these transitionary features out of the way asap so players won't get turned away until TWW releases because DF obviously doesn't have any of the cool stuff we announced at Blizzcon".
    DF is an afterthought at this point and I'm okay with this.

      DF had one purpose: to help clean up the mess of Shadowlands and create a blank slate for future expansions. And it's done that pretty darn well. The expansion's pretty mediocre in general, in my opinion (about on par with Cataclysm, I'd say - not great, but not terrible), but has been just good enough to keep WoW from being thoroughly flushed after the back-to-back smelly pile of the latter half of BfA and Shadowlands.

    azeroth is already corrupted, sargeras was trying to save the universe at large
    the aspects are now a hivemind under azeroth's influence
    come the last titan, we'll have to end the aspects ourselves, kill the worldsoul before she hatches/escapes and someone (anduin) will take her place, who can then infuse us with enough power to stop the titans in a council style final battle leaving the planet in our hands

    If we have actual good moments, intimate moments mind you when we can *share* it with the characters, then narrative and character interaction would be well on it’s way to being decent
    I myself have come back since BfA, thankfully missing shadowlands and I could not care for any of the current cast of characters. I do not know them or can say I’ve shared any personal and intimate moments with them. This feels like I’m in a movie more than fighting alongside comrades.

    It is true that Ysera seems like a wasted potential there, particularly when it comes to switching places with Malfurion but I do belive Merithra needs guidance and she has the Azeroth's blessings so maybe it wouldn't make sense for Ysera to reclaim the aspect seat now... I don't know actually, it's not like she wouldn't be able to guide Merithra had she not come back to Azeroth, but it is what it is I guess. Regardless, I can see that the overall dragonflight story and the worldsoul saga aligning perfectly like the stars in the sky. To me, story feels like it's gonna have a much better transition than recent expansions, especially within wordsoul saga itself. So while these small details leave a lot to be desired from Blizzard, I have clarity and I do see a closure for the dragonflights, as in, they are now united. Primal (at least those that follow Vyranoth), Dracthyr or Aspectral. I am overall very satisfied with Dragonflight.

  • @wholawl
    @wholawl 9 месяцев назад

    Honestly, unless they change the game drastically ( class gameplay, different progression formula or something), i wouldn't say the new expansion(s) will be any different from dragonflight.
    The lore could change drastically and all but the gameplay still hasn't changed much since legion, every iteration since has been a rework of the legion design with a fresh coat of paint yet still not as interesting as legion's class design was imo.
    It's always the same content every expansion too, new zone, new dungeons, a new raid, some side attraction that ends up being either a chore or irrelevant and it's back to the same thing next expansion.
