Not for me still. Just plain old vanilla ice cream Alynsa.

Someday I will see the portrait of Mocha Alynsa. But today is not that day.

Has anyone noticed that Valkorion is a smarter version of Ozai?

He at least noticed how dangerous the Azula-type character was despite barely acknowledging the Zuko-type character.

If Valkorion were Isekaiā€™d into Ozaiā€™s Body right after seizing the throne he probably would have deemed Azula enough of a threat to get her mind conditioned(which would be worse to her than Vaylin since she was supposedly the favored one) while casually dismissing Zukoā€™s accomplishments as he prepares to locate the Avatar and make the offer of sharing his power with him.

The notion of the Avatar being a more worthy heir to Ozai despite all of Zukoā€™s attempts to please his father would probably offend Zuko to the point of striking Ozai down and seizing the throne!

In the end Zuko would fall off the deep end seeking power while Azula being broken would willingly accept Irohā€™s help as Ozai/Valkorion possesses Aangā€™s Body and kickstarts a revolution to bring balance and order to the world.

Is this what you mean? Danny Zuko?

Cursewords, sometimes I love you.

I always love Cursewords. If there is one person in this forum who could do no wrong by me itā€™s him.

His Void elf is a Ziggy Stardust reference. Heā€™s a man of impeccable taste.

I hear many complaints about Void Elvesā€¦

I am just happy there is finally something close to a palatable and playable Alliance Race.

And Void Elves are very Bowie.

Very Bowie, as soon as I saw you I knew Bowie would be proud.

I wonder if Duncan Jones plays a void elf if he ever played WoW post Legion. :stuck_out_tongue:

It would be weird playing your dad.

Anyone else think that Blizzard is intentionally delaying the reveal of the next expansion so they can filter through the ā€œleaksā€ to see which one is the ā€œcoolestā€ and just copy that?

That F-ing flying cat seems so completeā€¦

To me it seems they have the next Expac planned, and are struggling to connect the ā€œpreviousā€ burning bridge with a future already made.

The hard part may be the transition.

See, I always believed they released the leaks themselves to test player interests.

ā€œThink theyā€™d come back if we gave them a tinker class?ā€
ā€œI dunno, Ion. What if we also gave them a new app to handle the lore? Yā€™know, so we could stop trying to fit it in the game?ā€
ā€œNot bad Steve, but how about if we also made playable dragons? Screw it, letā€™s get an intern to put together another ā€˜leakā€™ and find outā€¦ā€

One week later
ā€œOh my god, can you believe that damn intern threw in the 'Living Worldā€ idea we had into the leak?? WTF, we dropped that six months ago when we realized itā€™d cut into our COD time!! Andā€¦ Obviously the players liked it, weā€™re so screwed Steve!!"
ā€œYouā€™re screwed Ion? YOUā€™RE screwed??? I have to write the stories behind these changing zones!!! How am I gonna fit the Fractals into every damn zone?!?ā€

Practically since Shadowlands is meant to be the end of the ā€œfirst chapterā€ for Warcraft. My guess is that there might not be a clear transition because of that. I mean Vanilla ā†’ TBC ā†’ Wrath didnā€™t have clear transitions. That only really started with Wrath ā†’ Cata with the earthquakes, Ruby Sanctum, Loken and Yoggs cryptic warnings. But having expansions lead into the next didnā€™t come noticeable and the common trend until MoP ā†’ WoD. Cata ā†’ MoP didnā€™t have a clear transition either. It just took the B plot of Cata and made it the A plot.

They changed the way money looks in our bags, and I hate it. Itā€™s just a little thing, but that little thing makes me not want to play.

The straw that broke the camelā€™s back is I like seeing the little gold, silver and bronze coins. Now I donā€™t know how much money I have, life is pointless.

In all seriousness, itā€™s this little changes that make me the most upset with the gameā€¦ Why change something that no one was complaining about? I play Warcraft because I can trust that if I open my backpack, I will see those little coins beside the money I have. I like the cartoony-ness.

George Lucas and Steven Spielberg are behind the Story of The Land Before Time.

The death of Littlefootā€™s Mother was Steven Spielbergā€™s idea and was based on Bambi. The search for the Great Valley in order to survive was George Lucasā€™s idea. Littlefoot and his friends reuniting with their families when they arrived in the Great Valley was Don Bluthā€™s idea.

If Don Bluth had no part in the story and was just an Animator then Littlefoot and his friends would have simply arrived in the Great Valley and made it their home without meeting family members thus the Sequels would have been very different especially The Land Before Time 2, 3, 4 and 5!

The Land Before Time 2 would be Littlefoot fully becoming immersed in the role of a Parent without a Parental Figure(besides random adult Dinosaurs) to advise him.

The Land Before Time 3 would have no Mr. Threehorn making tyrannical rules and the kids would have more freedom to find the source of the Water Shortage on their own.

The Land Before Time 4 would not have the threat of Littlefoot having to move as he would have no Grandpa making him promise to go with the Migrators if anything happened to him. Instead it would be Allieā€™s life at stake with the Migrators just leaving her as they continue Migrating!

The Land Before Time 5 would not have Littlefoot and his friends worry about the Herds splitting up since they are their own Herd.

Land Before Time became as Family Friendly as it was because of Don Bluth not in spite of him!

Or they are waiting for us to see the Cutscenes so that they can get the Plot Twist out of the way so that the Expansion reveal doesnā€™t spoil Shadowlandsā€™ ending!

Are you sure that isnā€™t an addon? Iā€™m looking at my bag, and it looks the same as it has always looked.

This is?

Yup it as a UI issue, I reset my settings and interface to default, and the money went back to normalā€¦ I would have quit retail over this, Iā€™m glad itā€™s fixed. I messed up all my settings and it will take me a bit to fix it :frowning:
