The increase in sub revenue in the first month alone makes it a success

So this is how WoW will reach the 20+ expansions that Everquest has!
Nah , not to me as i’ve seen several games bring in great revenue at it’s launch but die down substantially later on with some even getting shut down

True, but Classic required far less resources than BFA or new games to produce. It’s definitely in the profitable category already.
This made me chuckle

Yogg is an old God but precedent exists that the old Gods are not allied right now. So the initial assumption that all the Old Gods are working together in Ny’alotha is also possibly wrong.
N’zoth isn’t dead, like Yogg. He was freed so maybe N’zoth is not in the shadowlands but working to free his body in the present. Yogg on the other hand might be the being in Ny’alotha feasting on the dead. He may also be who Bwomsamdi serves.
It makes sense in a lot of ways.

Also don’t forget that Il’gynoth’s first whisper was " Flesh is his gift. He is your true creator."
That was Yogg-Saron which I have argued before means that prophecy was not about N’zoth (though he is my main man). Now it seems that maybe Yogg-Saron has taken control of the shadowlands?
Also in legion there was evidence that Yogg-Saron is active again.

Death would be my guess. Something made her warchief, and Bwonsamdi works for Death. Death constantly hungers for souls, so would be endless.
She made a pact with Helya, who is basically like Bwonsamdi and prob works for Death. With as much as she’s said the word in the cinematic and the game, its a hint of someone we haven’t met yet.
This would be interesting.
N’zoth may be freeing himself as we speak, but if Yogg devoured enough souls and managed to find a real connection to the land of the dead he could, in theory, devour enough souls and gain the power to free himself.
Rather than facing off against N’zoth himself, we could be stuck in the middle of a war between the Old Gods themselves, simply trying to keep Azeroth alive through it all.
I’m down with that.

The void. The void is all about endless consumption and all devouring darkness. Has been forever.

No, Alleria went void and she and Sylvanas wanted to murder each other because of it.
Correct. Because the void fears death which is the true enemy. Sylvanas says in the loyalist cutscene that she has fed thousands of souls to N’zoth who will rise and litter the street with corpses and then turn it on him and make him serve death.
She said “to the endless hunger.” She didn’t say to N’zoth. She said he would serve Death in the end, not her.

Dunno. My mind thinks void. Deal with Azshara, corpses littering the street when N’zoth awakens, N’zoth himself saying all eyes will be open, etc. Maybe I’m just getting baited. Everything screams Old Gods / the void though in my mind.

Well if its true, then Heyla absolutely is the Azshara of Yogg-Saron.
Which would make sense wouldn’t it? He’s responsible for the Curse of Flesh, and she looks very … Fleshy to me (Titan Watchers dont just start growing tentacles do they)? Loken also was the one that turned her, and Loken was turned by Yogg.
Finally, I seem to recall MANY conflicts (Borean Tundra, Vash’jir) where the Kvaldir are waging full on wars against the Naga. If this is all true, wouldn’t that be the forces of Yogg (Heyla and the Kvaldir) vs the forces of N’Zoth (Azshara and the Naga)?

Shes mentioned Death so many times though. Bwonsamdi works for death, and I’m assuming so did Helya who she also made a pact with. And to do what she needed to do, she made the pact with Azshara since she does have the priest artifact weapon. I wouldn’t be surprised if she’s trying to nuzzle up to Nzoth to go against Death itself to master it.

Right, she said N’zoth would serve Death, not her. She’s not Death. The Helya pact still hasn’t been explained, supposedly, but that was how she got the the lamp to control Eyir, I thought.

The reason Azshara, Helya and Sylvannas are working with the Old Gods is to their own gain. That’s the purpose of the blade and why they’re using the void magic to their own gain.
If Alleria and Sylvanas were both void-based, why would they want to murder one another?
