Can you make detail video on Short story " Prophet Lesson " about all those visions mentioned related to Velen and Anduin 😅
Come Back WoW
I miss the ASHRAN war
I want to see a world player and a large-scale war
You want to know what my dream expansion is? We're in it right now. The only thing I have wanted from WoW for years has been dedicated Dragon story. I finally got it. And its been pretty nice so far.
Glad you're getting what you want. I really like it too. I always wanted more dragon lore and this xpac has been pretty great for it. Unfortunately a death/scourge xpac was always the one I holded out hope for and it wasn't what I wanted. I would have preferred they took an approach like dragonflight with the death xpac. Maybe the last patch could have been like Argus in legion. Shadowlands being a set of patch zones and most of the expansion taking place on and affecting azeroth.
My new hopes are pinned on a less themed expansion and one that adds maybe housing and continues this more exploration focused dragonflight experience. I think actually there's a lot of cool stuff already satisfying this in dragonflight, but I'd like to go further somehow. They can keep going with the cosmic stuff through the lens of azeroth and kind of course correct this story. I just hope these recent troubles at blizzard go away. It's clear these employees want WoW to kick ass, but the conditions and stacked ranking stuff is causing mental anguish and brain drain.
I constantly make mention of it, but the packs of Void Elves gathered in the corners of Stormwind that tell you to piss off every time you try talking to them makes me believe they’re planning something.
I’m still under the impression there’s a rebellion being planned against Turalyon, who will get desperate enough to run to the Dark Portal and open it to AU Draenor, inviting Yrel and the Lightbound to Azeroth.
Seems like the way they’ve been building up kicking that off since BFA.
StormWind? the place we used to camp and kill everyone 20 years ago full of noobs
@@badboybullterriers4104go back to your mud shacks!
Isn't Alt Draenor no more? I remember that timeline got erased?
Just curious, in Stormwind, where can I find those elves?
@@Lasershadowno Draenor AU is still active/existent. We learn this when recruiting Mag'Har Orcs.
This sounds fascinating but we shouldn't underestimate Blizzards ability to fuck shit up and not deliver.
Dragonflight seems decent so far. Nowhere near as bad as Shadowlands.
That globe in Ulduar not having the new/future island ("west of west") actually plays out in current lore. The whole Titans hiding its presence and the 'traitors' that are there thing.
...not to say anything about Pandaria, Broken Isles... or ANY of the other land masses that are not on there lol
We need Illidan to return to the main storyline!
Will that prophecy from valen about Anduin leading the light folk unto the shadows ever happen? I wonder
That is still canon, so yes. That could've been an alternate timeline, though it's likely the True Timeline, where we play in (outside of WoD)
@@monkeysk8er33 I suppose Anduin will return older from Shadowlands and by the time that happens the events speculated by this video will already be in motion and this will bring us to the comic sniplet of Velen asking Anduin if he's ready for the final battle.
Turalyon's wife is leader of the void elves. If Yrel comes to Azeroth, I think she will try to force Turalyon to destroy his own wife. That's going to stop him from joining Yrel's crusade.
Or we go got style and he kills her and their son turns away from light and becomes a void paladin
There's also one other option: We're not building towards a war between Light and Void, but rather a full on cosmic war. We've got Void moving, Light's coming eventually, Life seems to finally be maybe thinking about doing something, we're reemphasizing the Titans and their works again, Denathrius is still out there and it's safe to assume his Dreadlords are in action, and the only cosmic force that seems real quiet is Fel... and since we only know about its usurper(Remember, Sargeras was a Titan, and NOT originally from Fel), there's clearly something massive that could be hiding there. I also think I remember they said they wanted to tell a story that may take place over several expansions... so why couldn't they be building towards a war for all of existence type scenario?
This whole cosmic war would suck so bad. completely beats the whole point of what made WoW WoW. not everything needs to be explained,and fully revealed,weve learned that with shadowlands. the point of things like the old gods and the void is the mystery behind them. having a void themed villain would be awesome,but i hope they keep the void itself a mystery. going expac by expac and just fully demystifying every single power in the universe just makes every single power feel bland lol :/
@@NGBH yea my favorite parts are learning snippets of lore from the titan keepers ,very mysterious
Fuck i've never even thought of something beyond Sargeras with Fel, but makes total sense.
@@NGBH rename WoW to "UoW" universe of warcraft or "CoW" cosmos of warcraft
@@NGBH what’s the point in mystery without eventual answers ?
We have a class that is Singularly Devoted to Life: Druid
One sigularly devoted to the Arcane and Order: Mage
One to the Fel and Disorder: Warlock (two if we count Demon Hunter)
One Completely devoted to the Light: Paladin
One that is Completely about Death: Death Knight
What we don't have is a Class that is Singularly Devoted to the Shadow/Void.... (Priest doesn't count as its cut down the middle between Light and Void)
Future Class for this Light vs Void Expansion? >.>
When does the titan inside Azeroth wake up?
And does the planet crack like an egg when that happens?
Never thought about how fundamentally similar are Illidan and Ashara.
Both born with golden eyes both are powerful and both use cosmic forces on insane level but ultimately they are "their own scars". Child of light an shadow maybe reference to both of them and both of them are not submitting. Illidan broke chains of light via shire brute in your face power (That's how light operates), while Ashara is playing a game with the Void, which is also a way of beating the Void and how Void operates.
Incredibly foolish for them to keep Azshara void affiliated. She was betrayed and tortured. She’s just a wild card now.
I just want to see Yrel on the brink of victory and Illidan out of nowhere come in and have an epic throw down.
No, no, no, Illidan coming back will be the worst Marvel-esque capeshit cope ever. He should stay gone.
No no no. We need a 20 part mini series on what happened to Yrel and why she's the best girl and you are so wrong for hating her. She's just misunderstood.
Whoa who said anything about who wins the fight lol I just want the fight.
@@jeremyg769 uh, no one actually mentioned anyone winning. I'm just saying the fight would be fucking cringe. Illidan got his end, to bring him back would really fuck the story.
I like Yrel. I hope she comes in and kicks everyone's @ss. Not like anyone had done right by Azeroth since forever.
I love this video just because it's Michael at home, just kicking it, recording a video...
The eyes and tentacles in the Underwater Treasure was replaced with literal Easter Eggs. It looks like people were assuming too much for Blizz.
Hopefully this question doesn't get too long: Do we even know if the Titans are the actual primary entities of Order, or are they the same concept as the Old Gods? Nothing more than *harbingers* of their master's will? This would fit with Azshara "no longer dealing with harbingers." Sargeras, N'zoth... both just puppets to their true masters. And like the Old Gods who seem to have veered from fully serving the Void Lords, so to did Sargeras stop serving Order. Are the Titans truly the largest, most powerful manifestation of Order there is?
What I wish the direction had been: In Legion we disable (even if temporarily) the Burning Crusade, but not only do we incur heavy losses (did not happen) but also Azeroth gets damaged in the process (it does happen) then in BFA we set out to A - replenish numbers (happens) and progress to develop a way to heal the world (happens, but boring) B - Since the world in in disarray the Old Gods come out (happens, but we put them back in immediately) and they trigger the next xpac (doesn't happen). Next x-pac it's all about struggling against old gods/void/whatever to actually heal the world. (does not happen) and the xpac after a new healed and realized Azeroth fights with us against the void and we finally purge the old gods from the planet. (mostly)
Let's be honest, most of us would like to see how Azeroth would look like as a Titan.
But instead we got lazor beams killing old gods like ez-pez and then got Shadowlands which is meh at best.
Dragonflight might be not so bad but I cannot process that Shadowlands is now part of the story.
Also it feels like most of everything since Shadowlands is a big ass-pull, like "do you remember that very important dragon place we never talked about?" "no?" "Yeah, it's very important, it was just hidden so it can be used when we really need it." "Like the time Deathwing almost destroyed the world? Or when the Legion almost destroyed the world twice? Or when an Old God got released from it's prison?" "Yeah! Exactly!"
Just my opinion of course.
Yrel and Azshara are amongst my top interesting characters. if they get back in to the main story i might have to come back to the game again.
The Lightbound make the Scarlet Crusade look like a childrens tea party.
I'd honestly love to see the Scarlet Crusades reaction to the lightbound or the light forged seeing how the Crusade kills any non-humans, yet here you have non-humans with a connection to the light that easily surpasses any crusade members connection and who actively talk to Naruu on a regular basis.
@@Jackie89000 There are barely left of any of the Scarlet Crusade now. Even less now that they are leaderless and Whitemane is with the Ebon Blade after being brought back to life. Unless they somehow allied with the Argent Crusade in the near future.
@@BeyondDaX Turalyon has been secretly restarting and supplying the scarlet crusade behind closed doors in the 7yrs since we've been back from the Shadowlands.
@@OzzieSlapsDaBass Dangit Turalyon!
How about portals opening up with the baddies from Sanctuary pouring through & having them attack both shadow & light
Void vs Light, what a good idea. The War, a big war... My only concern is the fact that it's almost impossible to have even a patch that can be so well done to represent all that. I mean, the idea is so good but how can you make it happen that we will be doing that all the time and be that good...
I want to see Life hop into play. And I think Life, more than any other force, plays well with any others. Life adapts. And it's still such a mystery in a way the others are not, even if we know so many wild Gods, know so much of druids, and have stepped foot on occasion into the Emerald Dream. Life still has their cards close to their chest.
Your videos make me want to login more than the thought of playing does.
I think we are ultimately fighting both at the same time.
In the hour of her Third Death......She ushers in our coming.......Azshara "died" as a Night Elf and "reborn" a Naga. She "died" in the Eternal Palace and was "revived" by N'Zoth after the encounter. At last the circle is now complete. As for N'Zoth dying that is iffy for The Blade mysteriously disappeared after he got stabbed by Wrathion. No one seems to mention why that is.
My perfect expansion is whichever one brings back Gladiator Stance, preferably as a permanent 4th spec.
I think you're pretty straight on hitting the nail on the head. Looking forward to the return of, what I consider to probably be Azeroth's biggest hero, Illidan.
I would love to see light and dark become the new faction war and we can sign up to either side but I think it will be a 3 way war between light dark and existence/ natural life. Something like we take them both on and beat them so the universe is free of there control. Ashara will likely join us since her loyalties are more to life and her people and only used the old gods. Maybe even some old gods join us because they don't like being used as weapons of the void.
Xal'atath is a perfect example of an Old God who'd join us. She's certainly not *good,* but she is very self-centered, and joining up with us to help ensure her own continued existence and freedom would be entirely up her alley.
Gotta love how Bellular makes the WoW lore seems so Nice and fun. Until the next Xpac drops and it's all written by a refrigerator's AI.

The Age of Titans
Storyline: After defeating the Dragonflight, Azeroth's heroes discover a new threat to the world. The Titans, once benevolent creators and overseers of the universe, have returned, but they are not as they once were. Corrupted by an unknown force, the Titans seek to reshape Azeroth in their image. Players must journey across the world and beyond to stop the Titans from achieving their dark goals.
New Zones:
The Titan Wastelands: A once-great continent, now a barren wasteland as a result of the Titans' experiments. Players will encounter various corrupted Titan constructs, and venture into their ruins to uncover the secrets of their power.
The Celestial Realm: A realm of pure energy, inhabited by celestial beings who seek to stop the Titans. Players will navigate this mystical realm and uncover its secrets.
The Ethereal Planes: A series of interconnected planes of existence, home to the enigmatic ethereals and their powerful technology. Players will explore these planes and uncover the ethereals' connection to the Titans.
The Titan Stronghold: A massive fortress built by the Titans, now the epicenter of their invasion of Azeroth. Players will assault the stronghold and face off against the Titans and their armies.
New Features:
New Races: Players will have the option to play as new races, including the Ethereals, the Celestials, and the Titanforged. These races will have unique abilities and cultural backgrounds.
New Dungeons: The expansion will introduce a host of new dungeons, including the Titan Wastelands, the Celestial Realm, and the Ethereal Planes. Each dungeon will have unique mechanics and challenges, and will offer a variety of rewards for those who can conquer them.
New Mounts: Players will have the chance to obtain new mounts, including various forms of mechanical and celestial creatures.
New Abilities: The expansion will introduce new abilities for all classes, allowing players to customize their playstyles and adapt to the challenges of the Titan invasion.
I would not mind the fight against "good" guys FF Shadwobringers played with that concept
I just hope it will be done right
It would be very cool if in the proposed expansion we could choose who we support all the while seeds are planted depending on what side we’ve chosen about why we chose correctly but in the end of it all neither side is correct and we must use our new void or light gifts to turn against our sworn side. Idk would be cool
I like the idea!
Not gonna happen, Wow has become lazy as an MMORPG, making choices = more work
Didn't we see him after the murloc universe? We had a neck piece from the quest that was a parallel to the bfa neck so his vision might be off
The real question is, if light and void are the big boss, what comes after them? Is wow never gonna end?
Reminder there is an AU Garrosh on Yrel's side
Jaina’s a dreadlord and Elune is a void lord
I'm down for this Void vs. Light expansion. Been excited at the prospect since the Mag'Har and Lightforged quests. Honestly, I would love to see an even larger collection of allied races join the frey too, and what better way to add them in than with a clash of light vs. void. Especially for the more neutral races like the Tuskarr or Murlocs. Add like five or six neutral races, including of course Naga (who am I kidding...) who can go either lightforged naga or void naga. Maybe even add in lightforged and void versions for the various races, and fuse Blood Elf with Void Elf, allowing for the customization to let players choose in customization if they want to be neutral, void or lightforged which would give unique flair to the race and some extra RP for people. It would allow us to also fuse Draenei and Lightforged Draenei and give them a void option so they are on par with the other races. I feel like there's a way this could work and maybe your character would be locked to the physical transformation until the final patch when you unlock the ability to switch amongst the three variations for your race. I know that sounds like a ton of work, but it's really just some overlay textures for void and light that would be imprinted on that various races, give them some cool texture effects for hair/armour/eyes/etc. It honestly wouldn't be that bad. The main issue of course is adding races like Tuskarr, Furbolg, Murloc, Naga, Ogre and Centaur, as they all have weird body types for armour. I still want all six of them though...
I wonder though... Would this turn into the new "conflict" with the way factions are kind of gone? They could essentially make a themed war-mode for that expansion where you pledge allegiance to the light or the void and you actually fight for them throughout the expansion. Maybe the popularity of the faction by the end of the expansion could even play a part in how the story unfolds and who becomes the final boss? After fighting for our sides, we come together to fight as Azerothians once again, in order to defeat a power that has gotten out of control and is affecting the balance of all other forces on Azeroth.
I'm not a lorehead or a game dev, so yeah, the light vs. void allegiance thing would need to be simply a cosmetic and RP feature that doesn't have an impact on your player power obviously. but I think WoW needs more of the flavour without requiring immense grinds and player power "goals" which end up simply becoming mandatory content for every single person.
Really though, been stoked for Lightbound expansion for years now. And how Nyalotha got done dirty, I want to see a proper send off for the void.
I'm kinda wondering what is going to happen to Azaroth it self. It is a titan of proportion that it extremely powerful, hence all the fighting over it, but it has remained domained. It has also been converted/manipulated to all sides on the cosmic scale (holy, void, order, death, life and disorder) through all off the expansions. Maybe the end game will be to awaken the titan and it will be the perfect balance of all so the absolute middle ground that keeps the balance in check because its the most powerful of all? And with the awakening it will rally all the other forces to fight one last big bad that everyone is fearing but we don't know the existence of yet?
Fel will definitely have a big role in the story too.
Three cosmic forces have their "champions". Void with Azshara, Light with Yrel. Fel might be Illidan even if he was against Sargeras, let's not forget he's now his jailer and might learn a lot.
This big red star in the sky will disappear someday, and the troubles will begin.
Minor correction.
There is no alternate Garrosh. Grom had a different mate on AU Draenor, the child born later than Garrosh would have been.
Could possibly have the same name, but is still different in the same way that Yrel is different to anyone who might have been born in our world.
Considering the emerald dream was made by the titans, I wonder if there is a Dreamlands like in lovecraft's dream cycle that is the unordered version of the dream
The Dream was utilized by the Titans basically. The Dream itself is seemingly Elune's Realm.
Whats sad, is that we don't have a Nelf that is turned by the Shadowlands. We have Azshara, who is morphed by the Void. Illidan, who is a Chaos Beast. Sadly we see no permnant Morph of a Death Night Elf.
They like to present this "Light and Void are both equally bad" dichotomy, but the truth is, living under oppressive lawful light is a better existence than anarchist chaotic void. Even the people who do the best under the void are driven absolutely insane.
I'm really interested in seeing if they bring back some of the Old Gods. It always seemed to me like we had sent them back to their prisons, not actually destroyed them.
Recent expansions make it clear total victory of one cosmic power would be bad for us. There's also the supposed greater evil that the other powers fear, one that Murozond called the "True End Time", and was the driving force behind Zovaal's madness. An unspeakable horror that the Doomsayers call "The Crooked Serpent". Rather than taking out the cosmic powers, we might actually unite them against this ultimate threat.
Only to find out that the latest BBEG was not evil all along and was protecting us from the "Real" threat of this other BBEG? 🛑
It's the soul of Azeroth, calling it now. The Soul of Azeroth wants to consume all of existence.
I disagree that most people don't care about the estoteric background stuff. What they don't care about is bad versions of that, which is what SL was. There's so many versions of that which could have worked, I wouldn't rule out cosmic locations.
Honestly, I hope they don’t do it this way. I would rather see a Scarlet Onslaught or a discovering the otherside expansion next. I just get the Warlords of Draenor/Legion/Shadowlands vibe from the “Light vs Void”.
I hope it won't be something as cheesy as oh light and void are beefing since dawn of time and we suddenly make them have peace and merge into some uber force...
Legion expansion - Illidan's redemption (Final boss of The burning crusade expansion)
Shadowland expansion - Arthas payment (Final boss of Rise of the Lich King expansion)
Dragon flight expansion - Neltharion's redemption? (Final boss of Cataclysm expansiom)
Next expansion - Ganosh's redemption (the alternate light version ) (Main bad boss of Warlords of Draenor expansion)
Next next expansion - Sargeras redemption (Legion expansion)?
Next next next expansion - Sylvanas' redemption (Battle of Azeroth expansion)
Next next next next expansion - Bolvar's redemption (Shadowland expansion)
Next next next... OMFG
I welcome any void themed expansion so my void elf can get more weapons and armor transmog options
Light and Void is NOT the last war. You still got that 7th power bro.
The last time Blizzard tackled cosmic stuff they made SL. What's an indication that this will be better? With how Blizzard has been bleeding people lately I would guess it would go worse.
And what is it? Did Blizzard somehow regress the lore or is he misspeaking? I remember back in Legion that the Void and the Light were just forces of nature that were while it was the Void and Light Lords that messed everything up. That was insanely good lore btw, showing that Light and Void both had the same personality as a hurricane and it was living creatures that made everything worse than it needed to be.
The segue to sponsor actually made me go ‘GODDAMNIT’
My dream expansion is a old world revamp where we rebuilt and heal the world from the damage of the cataclysm. Player/guild housing becomes key and raids/dungeons are just fighting bandits and things. Down to earth and simple. No big bad apocalyptic enemy and no super deep philosophical story.
They're not going to use Yrel for the light faction in a expansion like that. WoD was ages ago and poorly liked, BfA was quite awhile ago too now and, well, the mag'har orcs remain one of the lower population allied races. Because you had to actually play quite a lot of BfA to unlock them. So most people have probably never even seen that story let alone know/remember who Yrel is. And those that do probably don't care to see her transformed into a Light N*zi. I mean, the Kotaku article basically writes itself right? Female Character Brought Back into Game only to serve as Facist Punching Bag etc... etc...
One of my biggest dream is have a zone to explore in ny'alotha, not like the raid, just a whole new big territory.
Unfortunately wow already established their version of Ny'alotha as an overlay of Azeroth corrupted where as the Emerald Dream is an untouched Azeroth, which begs the question. Does that mean there are multiple Azeroth world souls in each? Will there really be much to explore on these versions?
What if when the Light/Void battle is at it's peak the bad threat that the jailor warned us against strikes fully, and we will have to gather all primal forces to hit back against that threat.
And once we beat them, they will warn us that the real threat is coming
What could change with the light and dark-themed classes as a result of this great confrontation? I'm here for it!
well.... undead paladins should have being in game sense classic, and i dont understand why the fuck not.... what is a paladin? a warrior that use holy magic to overcome hes enemys. a warrior Knight that protects the weak and fight for the peace Cause! why can Undead be priests using fire/holy/shadow magic on their class and they cannot be paladins? if blizzard say * undead cannot be paladins because they die from healing them selves with holy light* so wtf is the priest that chose Holy specc and heals others and himself do? lol Warrior+holy magic= Paladin!
@@eltonazevedo1361 Let's just say it's a plot hole that was overlooked when they wanted to give them Shadow/Void from the Priest.
@@eltonazevedo1361 blizzard has long left behind the role play aspect of the original game. Undead priests were supposed to be able to wield shadow powers only, not light, but for gameplay balance reasons they had to have them be able to play holy and disc too.
Same shit with Tauren and troll paladins, the Tauren are supposed to worship the sun equivalent of elune and the trolls I guess some kind of loa but where have these motherfuckers been, we met literal naarus so many times and they still think some kind of loa/sun God is powering them.
It has become a bit of a cluster fuck, and class-race restrictions are being lifted little by little.
Why for example can't gnomes become paladins? They can be priests already and it would also make sense lorewise since they have been very close to humans and dwarves for so long.
@@eltonazevedo1361 In lore undead priests are all shadow priests, they only allow them full access to the class because of game balance.
I don't want a cosmic lore. I love azeroth, not cosmos. Id rather have an expansion focused on natrezim trying to take azeroth after legions fall. They hire agents, spread plagues, scheme, and start a new alliance-horde conflict. Turalion thinks it's naaru telling guiding him, but it's actually natrezim. The alliance launches attack on the horde.
You also have Calia Menethil being raised as undead by the light.
wow i didnt know that about velen, i can imagine how he also feel knowing the fate of alt dreanor. could imagine him getting a letter from etrigg about it
You shouldn't say 'minor setback', you should say 'merely a setback' if you got what I mean
MY opinion is that the Void will win at some point, causing the universe to implode in a recreation event, that will harken WOW2 into existence.
What would I like to see: a war between the Void and the Light, where the Light is just about to dominate and kill everything, when suddenly Azshara and another Void-ish faction come in as "the cavalry" and she becomes Azeroth's savior. Of course she would be insufferable after that, but it would be fun.
oh yeah because we aint seen that exact crap for how many years in a tow now
Nope
I think it'd be really cool if Azshara get's "possessed" by the Old Gods, like Arthas with the Lich King
Velen could become a kind of Buddha figure within the priesthood. Achieve balance instead of only good or bad and more a type of Yin/Yang guy than purely holy or purely shadow.
I wish Discipline would grow into a thing of its own then and rather than borrowing holy and shadow spells have its own ones from the flash of light and dark and be more of an "arcane priest" closer to an arcane Mage maybe rather than priests.
I remember when we looked at ALL THE EVIDENCE that a void expansion would follow Legion :,)
New Yrel model better be amazing
I would interested although I would be more interested if Elune turned out to be the newest void lord who does not necessarily agree with the others and disagrees with Order.
My dream expansion would be a second Cataclysm. Have all of Azeroth's old zones revamped with new quests. Would be cool to see players leveling all over Azeroth again.
Ok, I have been thinking about what I would like to see in a Light vs Void expansion (warning, long post).
With the prepatch we see that both Light and Void forces are making camps all around Azeroth, recruiting players to join their cause. Eventually, us too will get involved and join either one of them.
The main feature of the expansion would be new factions; Light and Void. The Alliance and Horde factions would no longer be active (with exceptions such as timewalking, old content, etc.). We would get new capitals for each faction (Scarlet Monastery for Light and Temple of Ahn'Qiraj for Void - see how they're at the exact opposites of the world map?) and the entire Azeroth would be a battlefield. There would be frequent open world battles and war objectives, we would be recruiting Azeroth heroes and hunting down the enemies (same old).
As the expansion would progress, we would learn more about how the other faction is corrupted and manipulating and we are actually the ones that are in the right (when in reality both sides are being lied to). It would all lead to a final war which would be a raid; similar to Battle for Dazaralor except grandeur and taking place all over Azeroth. The end of the raid would be us waking Azeroth up from her sleep by waging wars and her pacifying everyone and banishing all Light and Void forces from Azeroth.
That would lead us to the next expansion which would be about healing, rebuilding, renewing the war-torn world. This next expansion could possibly feature the return of the Titans as they are back to see what happened on Azeroth.
The Old One comes. All shall be devoured, all shall be empty once again.
The light will always prevail!
Illidan is sitting up there on the pantheon right now, so he has all the time in the world for sargeras to spill his guts and tell him literally EVERYTHING
Velen is probably one of my most favorite characters in all of WoW.
"The crow wishes everything was black, the owl that everything was white." Proverbs of Hell, William Blake.
Another thing that I think might be interesting when it comes to N'Zoth seeing us in the Thaldrazsus time hop is that... The map looks exactly the same. But.. it wasn't Ny'alotha, but this time it was supposed to be Azeroth, wayyy back in the day. Now you could easily make the assumption that it's just a quick asset re-use, but that can be less of a possibility if you consider that fact that Ny'alotha is "merely" N'zoth's Vision of the perfect future (in his eyes ofc), and what better place to use for this kind of vision than a place where N'Zoth found the one reality which he needed to pick from all his realities seen... In order to conquer the world and possibly even more
I may of course be entirely wrong about this and feel absolutely sad after learning that none of this is actually true, but for now, this is genuinely something to think about.
Gameplay wise, I'd totally side with the Light, regardless of their intentions. Whenever WoW decides to put the forces of Light front-and-center, it's some of the coolest moments. My pally roots are also completely biased toward the Light, and I'm totally cool with that (judgement hammer go boom)
If you've seen the 2006 reboot of thundercats, then a similar story to that with the power stones and ultimately the eye of thunder and the epic battle that went along with all of that. It could introduce a multitude of races, cool dynamics, world's, gods and villains as well as legendary weapons that could be used as references.
It could also tie in with current lore quite easily.
That's my opinion anyway.
There is the possibility to choose balance. In the Dragon Isles expansion thd primslist faction seem filled with corrupted shamans. This doesn't mean ALL shamans has joined the primalists. Standing with the elemental powers doesn't have to been done fanatically to the point of not tolerating the other powers. The void powers could be handled the same way so the voidelves doesn't have to become extremists. Any power,even the light, are destructive if allowed to win a total victory.
I always found the explanation that void came from the emptiness of space/absence of light a bit of a stretch. More akin of “trust me bro, i know what I’m talking about”.
And yes, it’s from the titan’s pov.
Hopefully Blizz will flesh it up a bit in the future and not let it be - space magic 🤷🏻♂️
one day it would be cool to have your own ship and be able to circumnavigate Azeroth
I, for one, would like to know where we were shown that Yrell has converted everyone back in Draenor to a light-forged army. Seems like a pretty massive plot point to be hidden away in some obscure corner quest.
You learn about it in the Maghar allied race quest line
It really is, and weirdly faction specific
I feel this is the video i have been waiting for a long time. Light vs void is so good and this video is so good 👍.
I remember watching a similar video you made about light expansion 10.0, but i cant find it again…
I would like to go to the voidlands actually just not entire xpac. don't want interesting things cut out like that entirely, it gives blizz to much wiggle room to do little as always
I want another MoP kinda expansion I loved it lol
Wait, I thought there was no alternate universe Garrosh because alternate universe Grom's alternate wife died.
Maybe in alternate Draenor Yrel is Garrosh`s mother :D
I dont think the void is the enamy, they corrupted the machine and created free will and multiple posebileties of what can happen or could happen. And i like Azshara and its an easy pick to side with Azshara and the void. Besides i think the void is a lot more fun and interesting then the one minded hivemind with drones that the light is.
free will and so on was a by-product of them just trying to worm themselves loose from their prisons, no side is the right side, Azeroth and it's people will have to fight to be the dominant force.
Aszshara's badass cred is non-existent. She continually gets in over her head and loses hard. She's not Megatron, she's only Starscream. All she's ever done is take massive Ls and rely on the strength of more powerful beings, before making a half-assed play for power that eventually fucks her over.
What if WoW's last expansion ends like Evangelion?
"Congratulations! 🎉"
On another note... What if, when Light vs Void happens, it's right after they "get rid of the faction split" like a bunch of people whine about happening... And then we as players have to pick sides in the Light vs Void conflict?
what if new old gods were created when we killed Cthun, Yog, Yshaarj and Nzoth? I see the old god corruption as a corrupting force that spreads through the world while maintaining a "brain" which is the old god's main body, but what if, by killing the brain, the corruption doesn't get completely destroyed but rather break down, and the isolated parts of the corruption, cut off from the main brain, begin to develop their own mind ? thus creating a new, lesser god. maybe that is how G'thuun was made by the titans? we don't really know what G'thuun was other than that it was a titan experiment gone wrong and then imprisoned.
Idk man. All Aszhara has been doing for the past 10000 years is making pacts with higher and higher powers in the warcraft cosmology. Pact with the mad titan did not work for her. Pact with an old god did not work for her. Cmon Azzie! What makes you think it's going to be any different this time?
The March of the Hungry Gays sounds like a new terrifying event.
The Scarlet Crusade has been teased as sort of a joke for years.
They wouldn't be such a joke if a buncha Lightbound came and recruited them and they knocked on a weak, scared, still recovering Forsaken's doors, would they?
I would love exactly that. Fight between light and void and you choose which one you side with and get their powers. Yes please!
Sounds cool, but it'd have the same problem as SL: people would just go with whatever offers better powers for their class/spec & get all kinds of feels bad for not going with the one they like best.
Do it legion style instead: lean heavy on class fantasy. Maybe even lean heavy on culture fantasy. Let it not be picking sides between light & void, but Azeroth standing against both would-be conquerors.
17:45 The light isn't dumb, or even naive. But the light is bound by an impossibly strict adherence to principles that it physically cannot go against. Hence, if those principles state that Lothraxion has been converted and made an agent of the light, that is what the light and its allies HAS to believe. It's not that they can't doubt; it's that doubting is not allowed. There is no room for questioning it. The light is fundamentalist at its core.
Honestly I don’t like the Light being retconned into being bad, when it was originally a force for good…
Perhaps this is the way Blizzard gets rid of the Alliance vs Horde and we all get to choose a new side regardless of what race we are. Light vs Void.
Would be cool if we lost to either one of these, they become the rulers of Azeroth, and we are like a rebel faction, one whole expansion us fighting for freedom.
