No Lore QA thread? (Jan 10th Lore and Story stream)

Community General Discussion

Even I can see how this doesn’t fit into the Lore and Story discussion so you can rest assured this won’t come up at all.

that is your opinion, i like my class just fine and will be even better with the 5th ring and even better than that when they put some stuff on the heart of azeroth in 8.2

I do hope they discuss what is currently going on with the Naa’ru. We already saw part of the darker side of them with Xe’ra’s prophecy thing with Illidan. Now with the added data point of the craziness that went down on Draenor with Y’rel, we are looking at a fairly threatening group that is building up in the background.

Boy I misread the title. That said the devs need to focus on fixing the game. The sonic OC Fanfiction level of writing should be dead last in their agenda. Their priorities should be.

  • fix classes and fun

  • address item levels being everywhere.

  • have a road map of improvements.

Them discussing lore is wasting our time when they could be doing something useful

So where can I ask a question in the hopes that it will be answered?

The blog was the focus for the discussion: https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/22839055/join-us-for-a-story-and-lore-developer-live-stream-thursday-january-10

If you post it here though I’ll pass it on too!

Won’t let me log in to do it. That’s a large problem. I just want more clarification on the lifespans of the playable races, nothing that is going to alter the story of the game. Gnomes, Trolls, Goblins, and Worgen all have no real answer to when do they die of old age.

I’m sure I can sum up this livestream. Terran Gregory loves WoW and all of the Lore. He will continue to help create awesome cinematics making both factions look powerful in said cinematics. Danuser will discuss the awesome and totally-not-evil Sylvanas and Nathanos for about 15-20 minutes, getting really in depth about how she feels and how Nathanos will help her. They might mention Night elves for 2-3 minutes at the end.

Holy crap I’m a pessimist.

So onto the questions:

Why do seemingly Thrall, the Titan Keepers, the Dragons. self appointed Aspect of the Earth Wrathion, Wild Gods and August Celestials, and the Elemental Lords have no interest in the giant sword sticking out of Azeroth.
Please note they cant have been distracted by the war, because they arent in the war.

Why doesn’t the Alliance employ the Vindicaar against the Horde?

A space ship with devastating lasers that can be fired from orbit is a massive advantage and could win many battles. But nobody’s used it yet. Why not?

Using it makes it a target though.

But it’s in space. How could the Horde possibly attack it? Magic? Combat spells only have a 40-yard range. :wink:

Will the new dark rangers continue to be part of the story in BFA (and the future) and will they be important? I really liked Delaryn Summermoon and hope that her and the other undead night elves continue to have place in the story. Night elven dark rangers look wicked.

They know they’ve turned the story into garbage over the course of WoW’s existence so they’re tired of people calling them on it.

Are we pretending that WoW’s story was ever its strong point? Dating back to at least TBC it was wonky at best.

The fact that BfA’s “terrible story” is 80% made up/extrapolated by disgruntled fans at this point doesn’t help matters.
