… so why isn’t this in-game?
Why wasn’t this part of the Lorewalking feature that was recently added? Seems like a better place for it.

I hope some remember tbc and that we learned K’aresh is obliterated and Dimensius is dead, killed by our and the consortium’s hands.
Seriously, stop with the rehashing man!

Can someone rate it 1-10?
Not sure if it’s worth my time.
Nice work. 
You would think you would remember that we didn’t actually kill him, and instead just stopped him from actually entering our plane.

No, the game said he was dead.
“Now, one of our most hated enemies lies dead - finally.”
Now, it’s perfectly fine that the game changed it’s mind and decided that Dimensius survived and the Ethereal quest giver was mistaken. That happens. Lots of people who were supposed to be dead show up alive later. Turns out we aren’t as good at killing as we thought we were lol
But we have to accept that it’s just it. Blizzard changed it’s mind and adapted the story to make Dimensius survive, retroactively.
We also have to remember that Blizzard never expected WoW to be this long lived. The Ethereal subplot was originally supposed to start and end in tBC. That’s why we killed Dimensius.

I can only view this as a multiverse time line, it should of been put in game, at the very least with Lorewalker Cho

A bath must be an especially decadent luxury on a world without water 
(or maybe I interpreted that early line about old K’aresh a little too literally … I found my inner naturalist going “wait, stop, I want to explore the ecology of this alien world a little more before we go on with the story!”)
There is a whole questline coming about that… so just the appearance of an audio book multiverse timeline makes no sense to me

I appreciate that Blizzard is a business that is here to make money but please put the lore for your game into the game. Even more so if it’s smaller than a full novel.
That’s a lot of listening!
Happy it is also in pdf form if I am unable to listen.
Would still rather it be in game, but this absolutely beats paying $30 for a book for in game context. For out of game/fanfiction stuff, sure, but for actual current in game stuff, no thank you.
Now I need time to listen/read when I’m not sick…

Loved this! It’s a perfectly accetpable compromise to the idea of purchased novels! You have youtube, you have colector’s bounty farming to do, put this on in the background!
Can’t wait for the patch! Thank you for this lovely lore drop!

Excellent. Perfect for my work playlist.

The big cosmic beings seem to have lots of projections, fragments, avatars and manifestations of various scales. I never got the impression during the original questline that what we were fighting in Netherstorm was large enough to be a full world-ending threat, so I don’t really even consider this a retcon.
