Okay, first time that your posts actually amuse me.

Yeah its epic and very very related. We all could have prevented the current state of the group, it didnt have to be this way.

[Amargaard]

Meanwhile.. Am's affair turned into an open relationship, where both parts agree to do nothing serious about it, and keep it the player-style - Don't give a damn if she's virgin, this is awzum! ^^

On-topic: Oh come on guys, DP won't die as long as Hive stands we will be here I'm sure x)

 

[trolman]

DP can easily be active again but we are just too fucking lazy.

 

[trolman]

 

[AIagremm]

No way that would work in real life.

[AIagremm]

Well... this is extremely hypocritical.

 

[AIagremm]

I see they actually highlighted it in the article.

"There was so much about it that I loved, but it's a shame because at the heart of it, it's something I don't believe in," Jones said. "If you think about church, there's very little that's bad. It's singing awesome songs, hearing interesting talks, thinking about improving yourself and helping other people — and doing that in a community with wonderful relationships. What part of that is not to like?"

Still, this is actually pretty nice. A lovely idea in fact. Besides, keep in mind that this is based on the Protestant sects.

 

[trolman]

You've got to be kidding...

[Tleno]

This is seriously turning into /dp/... gentlemen, we must take proactive measures!

Blizzard are shit, they are just re-texturing burning crusade and calling it a new expansion

also dubs

 

[Amargaard]

Hahahahahahahaha, can't put words on how fun that was xD

 

[trolman]

I approve this video.

 

[AIagremm]

All in all, we all have to agree. Garithos would make a way better leader for the Alliance than the ones in WoW.

 

[VeljkoM]

This makes more sense. Why trust an undead elf? Wish I had sound...

Can't say I agree with you Al because for me to agree would need to think that WoW alliance has a leader. I don't really think that guy with multiple personality disorder is a leader of anything.

 

[AIagremm]

Don't worry Vel, there is no sound in that video.

Well, I meant THE Alliance leader. As in humans and stuff, not the random bunch of misfits that WoW Alliance is.

 

[VeljkoM]

I still say no such guy. The regent prince is underaged and the "king" appeared out of the thin air and started commanding armies but nothing about actually humanity as he allowed every human settlement north of stormwind to be destroyed. Can we say that there really is an alliance anyway? After third war what was left of real alliance was all destroyed like Lordearon, Stromgarde, Quel'thalas and Dalaran, Kul Tiras lost their king and so the only thing that left of real alliance is Khaz Modan and Stormwind. Then again was alliance even alive in third war as everyone did nothing as undead and demons ravaged entire continent.

You know people complain about blood elves and forsaken in horde but WoW horde at least has sense of unity. WoW Alliance exists just because Horde does and has no common goal or purpose.

 

[AIagremm]

Well, at this point, with Warlords of Draenor in work, it's pretty clear that such things as lore and story are inexistant in WoW.

 

[VeljkoM]

Wait are they going backwards now? I suspect time travel...

 

[Bernkastel]

Like if time travel was new in WoW.

 

[AIagremm]

I honestly cannot understand what the hell is going on in Warlords of Draenor. It is set in the pre-WC1 era, but the Alliance Expedition led by Khadgar is there and for some reason orcs have advanced machinery. I haven't got a slightest clue of what is going on.

But I have to admit... I actually like what they did with Draenor. Well, except for Blade's Edge Mountains suddenly being snowy and volcanic. And Netherstorm turning out to be a desert populated by Black Rock Clan who are appearantly super-advanced. And Hellfire Peninsula being a jungle. And Shadowmoon Valley being elfland.
Other than that, I am quite content. They got like 40% of it right, by modern Blizzard standarts that is incredible.

 

[Bernkastel]

"After escaping from captivity in Pandaria, Garrosh will return and go back in time, along with Zaela. He will alter the history of Draenor by supplying the clans of the Old Horde (now dubbed the Iron Horde) with current technology and making them refuse to drink the demon blood."

 

[AIagremm]

 

[Amargaard]

Only thing that confuses me - what will happen to Outland? They said that Outland would be an instance in the Caverns of Time, but do they seriously plan to simply remove all those characters and places and history that have happened on that place? I mean, is Akama just gone forever now, and replaced by these old bastards? :C

 

[AIagremm]

Outland remains the same. Draenor is a new continent.

 

[Amargaard]

That's not what concerns me - according to the story of the new expansion, Garrosh alters the timeline, so that old Draenor becomes present, and the Dark Portal from past Draenor and present Azeroth will be linked together, rather than present Outland and Azeroth.

What concerns me is that present Outland will simply cease to exist, along with all characters on it, historical events that have happened there, etc etc etc!? D:

 

[AIagremm]

Well fuck, I don't know. As far as I know in WoD they will still be in progress of making the Dark Portal, so I doubt it.

Yea, that would concern me and all, but the entire freaking Warcraft universe, with all its characters and and historical events that happened there, disappeared when WoW was made.

So Warcraft can't get any worse right now, even if they remove Outland, simply because you can't fall from the bottom.

 

[VeljkoM]

Yea I know time travel was already abused as an excuse to send players to cool historical moments and in that one novel to destroy the warcraft timeline but this is kinda bigger. I mean it is change that occurs before all warcraft games and should effect story of them all. And I envy Am being confused by just 1 thing. Anyway I think you Am mixed it up and that New Old Dreanor is in Caverns of Time (since it is in past) and the regular present day Outland is still where it was. The end of expansion is probably fixing the damage Garosh did and restoring the original timeline anyway like every other caverns of time related event thus pointless as all of them.

By the way am I the only one confused that Dreanor is exactly same size as Outland? I always figured Outland was just one fragment yet this Dreanor is same with water instead of abyss.

 

[Amargaard]

B-b-but the players will arrive through the Dark Portal... >.>

And what about paradoxes, with two Drek'thar's and Velen's alive, among lots of others

And if you're right Vel, and the expansion ends with Garrosh being defeated and the timeline saved - which is what I prefer anyway - Blizzard would actually have made an entire expansion without changing a single thing in Warcraft history, lol...

 

[AIagremm]

Are you sure that they will arrive through the Dark Portal? Where'd you get that info?

Really? Garrosh went back in time to change the Horde before it even entered Azeroth, everyone suddenly begins time travelling back to that place... and the thing you're worried about are two Drek'thars and Velens being present. Really, Am, really?

 

[Legion_King]

Better to have no changes than to ruin that which is left. Wait is there anything left at all?

 

[VeljkoM]

Well does it make sense for Dark Portal to send you to past in time when Dark Portal has yet to be made? So to me logical thing to do would be to use Caverns of Time to go to the past. Also Outland is still 60-70 zone so they can't just remove it out of gameplay reasons (I mean since when lore reasons mattered, they change lore to fit their gameplay not the other way around).

Well the paradox would be two Garoshes but I doubt there will be two Velens and Drek'thars as non of them traveled to this past Dreanor.

Thats very odd statment as this expansion main feature is disrupting directly history. Heck this is retcon as gameplay feature, WoW:The Retcon.

And...no there is nothing left they destroyed everything from RTS games I think.

 

[AIagremm]

Well, this expansion makes it official. Blizzard is out of ideas. As I always say, 'When a work of fiction that is not based around time travel, decides to use it, it means that the authors are out of ideas'.

Seriously though, Blizzard, please, just die in a fire or a plane accident. Don't ruin the little legacy you have left untouched.

 

[VeljkoM]

Maybe they said "Damn since we screwed Warcraft future so much maybe we should go to past and screw it?".

Hey I know next expansion, players time travel to the time when Sargeras went mad and kill/cure him and thus change the entire universe and remove Burning Legion out of existence and thus create Heaven Universe and Warcraft ends.

 

[AIagremm]

I hear some guys in Blizzard actually work on an optimization of WC1 and WC2 for modern systems in their spare time. Not entirely sure what that means, though.

 

[VeljkoM]

Well probably like the Age of Empires 2 HD, at least to make those two games workable on modern Windows system since Wc1 can't be played and Wc2 only the battle.net edition works. Then they shock WoW players that Warcraft 1 and 2 exist (some doubt about 3 even today).

 

[AIagremm]

Yea, so I think. Ah, WoW players. Ah WoW. Ah Blizzard.

Blizzard is officially lame as hell.

 

[Tleno]

From all I heard it may be possible they may release them Warcraft 1 / 2 for free! I mean, they adapted and released that Blackthorne for free, might go with other retro games.

 

[VeljkoM]

The story telling part yeah, but the actual gameplay of their games still is holds. Of course in case of RTS games success was because the modding friendly games, MMO success is addiction but I am unsure about Diablo as I never played it but I imagine it is like WoW just better story (I know truly hard to achieve).

Well EA released those old C&C games for free to didn't they?

 

[AIagremm]

Yea, gameplay is still Blizzard's strong part.

 

[AIagremm]

On a lighter note.

«Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."
"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"
His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.
Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"»

 

[AIagremm]

Would anyone like some tea?

 

[Amargaard]

Tea? No thanks, I'm fine with my coffee, but thanks for offering, good sir

Are you sure that they will arrive through the Dark Portal? Where'd you get that info?

Hm, okay, I misread Wowpedia - it is only stated that for players "the campaign starts behind enemy lines in the Tanaan Jungle". You are right, that the portal is still under construction ^^

Really? Garrosh went back in time to change the Horde before it even entered Azeroth, everyone suddenly begins time travelling back to that place... and the thing you're worried about are two Drek'thars and Velens being present. Really, Am, really?

I'm only questioning how Blizzard's gonna handle these logical problems that occurs by Time Travelling. What will happen if the same person from different times, meet eachother face-to-face?
Garrosh won't be a paradox problem, as he disappeared from the present along with that Bronze Dragon friend of his, when entering the past. However, many characters exist in both past and present, and since past becomes present, will exist twice.. AAARGH IT'S MESSING MY HEAD UP!!

Well, this expansion makes it official. Blizzard is out of ideas.

Don't be too hasty in your conclusions and accusions, I'd say this is indeed a creatively made expansion - great way to actually get to fight with the old deseaced characters of lore, and see Draenor as it appeared in the past, but yeah... I'd liked to see the story play out differently as well :l

 

[VeljkoM]

There is no danger of time paradox as none of the important characters are going to past. They will stay in present and their past selves will be in past. Future Garosh on the other hand is in past and will meet Past Garosh. Your logic is really backwards on this issue as you seem to think that they brought Past Dreanor to present. Nobody can just meet their doubles except Future Garosh who is now in past. Past and Present are separate.

Well maybe they aren't out of creative ideas (lets admit it you must really be creative to do what they do to Warcraft), just out of good ones but that has been case for years. I don't really like the fetish to fight every named and unnamed character that existed in warcraft and as I said I really thought the original Dreanor was bigger then Outland but guess they just did to Outland what they did to PreCata Azeroth.
