All of Azeroth is based on Australia. Where else did you think they got the idea for dangerous wildlife?
All of Azeroth is inspired in Australia: Everything is trying to kill you.
It could be the entire region, not just the mainland of Australia, but including Tasmania and also New Zealand.
And I’m calling it now based on the inclusion of the Kiwis: new Allied Race - Hobbits!
/moo
You beat me by seconds! I hate/love you.
What if they did a British Empire themed expansion.
They love making islands these days(see last 3 expansions) so they could make a series of islands themed around all the former British colonies.
India, Australia, Canada, Northern Africa, etc…
Then we make the Alliance the bad guys trying to expand their territory while the Horde fight for the indigenous peoples like Thrall did for the Taurens.
Dredgers have Cockney accents, which I know aren’t the same as Australian accents, but are similar, and they labor in Revendreth, a place where sinners are sent. Australia did used to be a penal colony.
Edit: I think I was wrong about the accents being similar. I apologize.
What I would like to see is to have an Aussie shissposter as a mod. Waltzing Matilda my arsse. The 300lb landwhales in LA couldn’t contend with our down under cousins. Eat another snackcake you sows. Unbelievable, my post was flagged for using the word Scheiss.
WoD was pretty “wildlife can kill you”, including the plants and insects. So I’d say the next Draenor expansion would be like that, or a similarly alien planet.
Will it have Australian themed affixes?
Like Wildfire, Flooding, omgspiders, and rude food servers?
Please! I’ve been dying for this exact thing for ages. I was surprised when the Vulpera didn’t have Australian accents, and instead sound like nerdy white Americans. We have enough American accents in the game as it is.
Our culture is very, very boring.
With the exception of our version of football.
The only thing better would be a Marmite sandwich!
Nation of Tol Dagor
Naw, mate, you’re gonna need a bigger knife
I’ll be the first to down vote this horrible contribution to the thread
But… in Australia, everyone calls each other a c----, how… would that even work?
…California?
Not so much the spiders.
chum?
Nothing wrong with that good chum
To be honest — and I’m not trying to sound mean towards America, but I feel Americans usually do a poor; if not crude or somewhat insulting impression of Australia, even if it is just an inspired source.
I’d be fine with some wildlife inspirations, for beasts, pets or mounts but yeah further than that I’m abit ~ Eh, not so sure. lol
Not enough space on the planet for former British Colonies.
I guess we could…back story the orc’s
Sent all there Prisoners to Foreign land…and then the Prisoners took over the land from the indigenous people Inslaved them…and now the Indigenous people are trying to take back their country? Sound good?
