Yeah, it’s just you. Korthia expanded upon the Maw, you can even see the chains connecting it to Torghast via the skybox–a visual delight I might add.
Pretty much the entire story since SL has been about stuff introduced in SL lol.
Everything is now oriented about the cosmology that was introduced and iterated in SL.
It’s as pointless as any other new patch zone. As soon as the patch is over it becomes a dead zone. While it was current it was useful even if it wasn’t fun. I got some new mounts there and did a bunch of daily stuff for what was current content.
More importantly, Korthia was sort of the catalyst for a big turning point in WoW. After the very poor community reaction to Korthia we got things like Zerith Mortis, rotating M+ dungeons, creation catalyst, better dev feedback (even if that feedback only lasted for a few patches)… That was the low point in SL that caused Blizz to make things better.
Korthia would have been cooler had they decided we found it before the Jailor trashed it.
What we saw was only a portion of the zone, as the Jailor ripped it apart with the chains of domination, similar to what he did to part of Zereth Mortis. A full proper zone instead of a quarter of a destroyed one would have been so much better.
It was called Korthia City of Secrets.
It was not a city.
It had one secret.
There was a grind for sockets loop there, and unfortunately it wasnt interesting or fun for me. And in general, I think for me, it was just a very unfun and uninteresting expansion zone.
It was known as “Chorethia” back in the day.
Shadowlands should have killed off Anduin and his friends so we could get some new main characters. Anduin must be 2 centuries old from a lore standpoint by now. LOL
Just wait until you find out that was the zone for an entire patch, and not a mid season content update lol.

One thing I can say for Korthia–it gave me my adorable Crimson Shardhide as a reward for spending way too much time there.

It’s billed as the City of Secrets. It should have been called The Grey and Beige Forest of Boredom

It was supposed to be the city of Korthia. I thought we’d get something like a Suramar or similar. The veiled market was more of a city than Korthia. What sounded like a cool zone was just a busy work barren land. I want to get the darker armor sets from it, but can’t be bothered yet.
I loved it. Korthia was grindy but the zone itself was so fun. God so many great PvP fights…
There wasn’t a lot to do in Korthia. Idk how it kept ppl’s attention for as long as it did.
