It was most likely done as a combination of having Sylvanas get a “See how brutally effective she is” and the “rule of cool Jaina warbringer” going for Jaina
Still didn’t make it any less stupid, but at least the cinematic was cool and the blight ultimately didn’t matter enough
Even if it’s correct, we’re stuck having to use tunnels under Stormwind.
On the topic of a Siege on Stormwind. I imagine they would have to have something special planned for the tram to Ironforge if this hypothetical scenario is indeed true and they want it to be succesful for the Horde
Otherwise they can just keep ferrying reinforcements and supplies from Ironforge
Gonna lol so hard when it turns out there is no SW raid. But if there does end up being one, i’m ignoring all the bosses and making straight for the Pig and Whistle Tavern for some hanky panky.
If there is one— It will be like Zanda raid. It will be two different story narratives and at the end, Blizzard will state which was is the correct one…
Maybe Jaina could do a Dalaran special and move the Stormwind Mage Tower to Gilneas before the place is flattened.
I’ve already beaten the life out of stormwind on more than one occasion. Camped it with an old guild for nearly 2 days back in Cata. Could take it again no problem.
But probably they’ll just make it either just a questline where you fight NPCs on auto pilot, or just a cutscene, and there won’t actually be a battle of any sort because PvP is worse than hitler or something.
Anything they do, unless they make some Cata-like change expansion, you just go to the local time dragon and revert it back to the norm.
Darnassas will be old Darnassas when there is nothing anymore to deal with BFA Darkshore.
In a way I will too, but I don’t really forsee how any other raid would make sense for 8.3, fighting any old god atm is seemingly very pointless unless we are undead
What are you talking about 8.2.5 drops on Tuesday and then it’s on to 9.0.
Sheesh get it right fella.
No, then it’s on to 8.3.
8.3 is definitely happening lol
Forget where I was reading it but I was pretty sure due to time constraints and Blizcon they are dumping everything after 8.2.5 and going straight to 9.0.
I was reading it somewhere and I don’t think it was actually on the forums. But I can’t remember, I just thought hmmm another incident of time running out for planned content.
Remember the cult running around Stormwind saying the end was coming and then poof their story line disappeared.
Seriously horde in alliance cities? yup time to throw away this game for good if that happens. MAHF- Make Azeroth Horde free
LOL, yeah, no. Blizzard’s not going to off the whole rest of the game because of a few whiny forum junkies.
Go back and read my addendum to the post
As long as I don’t have to buy Stormwind dinner first.
Idiot horde goes along with plan to get blighted by their own leader lol?
Totally makes sense for the brainwashed orcs/undead. But why the cows and elves would be fine with that is beyond me.
Those undead could use a good brain washing. Have you seen how dirty those zombie brains are?
I think we’ll lose Stormwind as much as the Horde lost Orgrimmar during Mist of Pandaria.
