Alliance or Horde?I am asking once again
>>748908197Horde with Amani Trolls instead of gay elves tho
>>748908197Neither because I dont play pay to play games
>>748908197horde. the races are less boring and they don't have to deal with asmon cultists
>>748908197Wait why the fuck was the last thread deleted?
>>748908197alliance but only because I can't stand orgrimmar
>>748908197Horde so you can massacre chuds
>>748908197horde since asmongold and his band of fags will ruin the alliance
Alliance so I can kill people that hate nazis probably
>>748908197i would spam a target macro and steal the shitty mob as many times as possible just to fuck with those cucks waiting in line
>>748909337>paying money to the one of the wokest devs in the industry for a chance to digitally hunt people who dislike nazisamazing
>>748909337
>>748908501Chang's Pass was expired. So the mods deleted his ad.
>>748909421Cant do it irl yet
>>748908328>tbc>alliance get draenei>horde get amani trolls>ghostlands is their starting zone and they progress into eversong with silvermoon as a 70 raid>blood elves succumbed to fel magic and theres a split between dar'khan's scourge forces and silvermoon's fel forcesThis makes much more sense and gives alliance more than 0 reason to go to a raid in quel'thalas(them raiding zul'aman makes no sense)
>>748909472I'm so glad Turtle was killed so we can get this, being banned for mean words and gay blue elves instead of goblins and high elves
>>748909602It's weird how the blood elves are into some dark demon shit was common knowledge in universe in vanilla, yet tbc comes around and apparently none of the quel'thalas blood elves know and they turn on kael'thas when they find out
>>748909863FEET

>>748908337Brown and poor coded post. 15$ monthly subscriptions are a good thing because they filter out third world bot farms.
>>748912140>WoW doesn't have botfarms
Doesn't matter, just avoid the Olympus guild. Not because of streamer faggotry (which it is but besides the point) but because they're weirdly weirdly bad at the game. Nothing substantial new class or combat mechanics wise has been introduced, but somehow every fuck strain I've partied with from any of the Olympus offshoots are worst than Brazilian levels of trash.
>>748909863Remove that picture and use the real one.
Is Alliance called "Alliance" because their logo is "A Lion"?
alliance obviously stormwind and iron forge are amazing while horde live in a gypsy trailer campalso asmongold's making all the faggots snd trannies loosing their mind
>>748908197given these two examples? horde easily>alliance paying their sub to wait in line so they can get 1/20th of the way to level 5, wasting their own time and accomplishing nothing.>horde players either learn how to autotag mobs (useful skill for contested zones later in the game) or learn that you don't have to do every quest and just start doing mobs elsewhere to get to level 5 (get out in the world, explore and again pick up skills for later when vanillia runs out of quests)reminder the horde can't be black because black people never conquered nonblacks, like the horde has
>>748911668>get to play with actual women sometimesmy girlfriend in highschool and all of her gamer friends were horde
>>748913017the horde had to be empowered by literal demons... there is some parallels to draw there with events in historybut leftists crying about orcs being racist against black people is gay and retarded so fuck all that.
>>748913243orcs wrecked everyone on their home planet before the demons though
>>748909863Illidan and friends were a bit more nuanced in Warcraft 3, but they all got pigeonholed into cartoon villain roles because they had to be raid bosses. Also TBC was THE retcon expansion until Shadowlands.
>>748913312no, they did not.the old horde was literally FORMED via demonic empowerment of warlocks, courtesy of Gul'dan.THEN they swept over the Draenei.They hadn't drank the blood yet, sure.But they were using demonic magic and being controlled by demons via Gul'dan from the shadows.Hell they were artificially aging their children into fighting age using demon magic, just to have the soldiers needed to conquer their rival Orc tribes.Again, there are some AMAZING historical parallels I could draw here, but my earlier statement stands.
The Alliance did more damage to the setting than the Horde ever did. Hell, arguably the Horde is the foundations of 90% of the setting.Imagine playing the faction with Void Elves and Eredar in it. Lmfao
>>748913708slight amendment to my post herethey were aging the kids to fight the draenei.the clans were already unified by their ongoing war with them, and the shamans who had their powers blocked by demon bullshit were going over to gul'dans demon bullshit to get their own demon bullshit.
>>748913808>the "foundation" is a demonic invasion by the old horde being used as puppets to bring as much evil into the world as possiblethe foundation is that the horde RUINED the setting, anon.
>>748913690>but they all got pigeonholed into cartoon villain roles because they had to be raid bossesGod I wish Kael'thas hasn't been made into a Saturday morning cartoon villain and was the leader of the blood elves after he got back from outland

>>748916424Shaman is so underplayed right now that you'll have guilds sucking your totem to have you and you'll probably be given a free hand of rag
>>748909958Why are you trying to falseflag in random threads instead of just going to /vg/ deltatroon?
>>748916532i only leveled warrior to 60 during classicits fun when you get good gear, but once you outlevel your gear, its a real chorestill, its a fun class, i wouldnt have chosen it back then if it wasntnow im thinking to go pally or rogue this timepopping fear ward before ambushing a priest will be fun

>>748918258on the surface it seems quite in character given how retarded and evil trolls in general tend to be.the horde gives them the best chance to resume being evil freaks towards civilized races so they like it more than actually trying to be civilized.

>>748918048>implyingA girl I know irl used to play male orc
>>748918076>are warriors good?I had a deep dive into Warrior (looking at talent calculators online) and they look good with one flaw. They don't seem to have healing if you're not playing Fury. That means you can play Fury (they dual wield so you might not like it) or play another spec and make potions via the professions. >>748918396I said the same thing when I saw that image the first time, lol.
>>748908419>less boring >faction is 90% faggot elves
>>748911668>get to play with actual women sometimesGreat reason to play horde then
>>748918461hows the fury self heal then?
>>748918258just to be clear, I am talking only about the amani trolls here. >>748918387 not the darkspear tribe.most of the trolls humans originally had contact with, such as the amani, are just comically evil and barbaric in lore.

>>748919056>warrior cant healYeah, it's actually a problem. I see videos of people soloing dungeons, but they were all playing a class that could heal. I might just play Fury.
hows warlock
>>748919269I'm sure it's good, just like Hunter is good. I would play this middle tree because it has a summon.https://wowforevertalents.com/warlock/
What's the comfy class, the solo class, the one to explore wow forever aka the land between and beyond?
>>748919435Hunter or warlock, traditionally
>>748919531Actually?
>>748919549Actually. They are the easiest to play solo because of their pets
>new Merchant's Favor feature added to WoW Forever>Horde camp is located in the Barrens, in Horde territory>Alliance camp is located in Redridge, in Contested territory full of level 60 Undead Rogues 24/7Totally no faction bias there from Blizzard.
>>748919531>warlockIt plays basically the same as it always has, its the 2nd best solo leveler in the game and very active with keeping dots up, managing your aggro+pet aggro, and juggling fearsIn dungeons you either do good or total ass because DoT gameplay falls apart when mobs die too fast, but demo and destro might be competitive at endgame for dungeonsRaids are to be seen, you almost always just put up dots and shadowbolt on cooldownIn PvP you are a GOD
>>748919435Hunter, warlock, and priest.
>>748919658>Merchant's Favor featurei dont get it
>>748908197horde is the muslim faction
>>748919829>
I've never played WoW before but I'm gonna try this. Undead paladin seems really cool but apparently it's a new class/race combo so am I gonna be fucked if I pick that? Is everyone gonna be an undead paladin?
>>748919836They added a camp where you can turn in boxes that any mob has a small chance of dropping, to get crafting recipes. Horde camp is in the Barrens near Stonetalon Mountains, Alliance camp is in Redridge Mountains, where the roads from Elwynn Forest, Duskwood and Lakeshire meet.Horde camp is in Horde territory, Alliance camp is in Contested territory.https://foreverchanges.pro/merchants-favor
Cant take gnomes serously man
>>748920161It's the most played class + race combination in the beta and will probably be that way on release because everyone wants to try it out.
>>748920279Sheeeeit
>>748920161Yes but be warned the rotation is boring and you will auto attack 9/10
>>748920239The women are cute and the men are just there for some reason. At least they live with the Dwarves so they can get the BDC if they want it. Gnome men must be the biggest cucks.
>>748920334I don't care about that, I'm coming from Everquest and FFXI. I care more about exploring the world and character building.
>>748920421Go ahead undead paladins are pretty kino
>>748908197Alliance has better PvE racials, Horde has better PvP racials. Pick your poison.
>>748908328>small brain>whoa I can cut off your head (a hobbo can do that)What is it with horde being filled with low IQ people?Oh, I know.Hmm.... :)
>>748920510Horde has better pve 60%
>>748920421You might want to play the new Warcraft III campaign they released recently, it's focus is on Undead Paladins and the Forsaken.
>>748908328Holy FUCK i wish we could get upright trolls man
>>748920145It's true. Priest bulldozes through overworld content, and the only reason it's not the best solo class is because of how good having a pet is.
>>748919836it's to take resources off the auction house and add an alternative additional profession grind.
>want cute fem troll warrior>but already have a male troll hunterRAHHH
>warcraft forever>look inside>it's another vanilla wow but "with a twist"from vanilla release date, to vanilla naxx, the game changed more than classic > forever. And it was 20 years ago
>>748908419So horde is just seething trannies? Lol enjoy leveling in africa
>>748920898Unless you plan on playing both factions in PvE, you're gonna have race overlap.
>>748908197Lorewise why does a druid turn into a moonkin? All the other forms let them do something they physically could not do otherwise but in moonkin form your just casting the exact same spells as before?
>>748908197>Olympus has across all its guilds around ~50,000 members>Alliance has around 72,000 members in the beta>That means nearly 70% of Alliance members are members of OlympusHoly shit.

Hunter was always a fairly popular class but is this chinks testing bots? I didnt think it would be this high.
>>748921180So they can kiss
>>748921324Yes, all of the level 5 tauren herbalism bots were hunters.
>>748921180I levelled horde in vanilla so have a crush/affinity for them since troll females were the closest thing to an attractive female around and the race every girl played
>>748908197tracks with that forum post
I've always played both. Alliance have the better capital cities, starter zones and zones in general. Horde have way more interesting races, with better animations and suck very slightly less at group pvp. I usually go horde these days as it feels wrong grouping up with male night elves and gnomes.
have yet to have a social interaction on alliance lolhorde's been super friendly everytime
>>748922035>have yet to have a social interaction on alliance lolWhat the hell race were you playing? Every time I walk around Teldrassil, the chat is being blown up, and people are buffing me for no reason. I'm ready to be blinded to protect my people.
PvP or PvE?
>>748922204human, people been ego questing no invites, no campfire stories
>>748918461you do get victory rush baseline at least
Give it to me straight. PvE or PvP? I quite like the idea of world PvP shenanigans but I also think it could get old really fast, especially in todays discordrat infested internet.
>>748922262RP
>>748922262US? PvE EU?PvE

>>748908197zug zug
>>748922365PvP in the world while leveling was fun even with getting ganked being common, until it was time to do dungeons/raids in Blackrock Mountain. Morgan's Vigil having zero guards didn't help.
what's the most fun healer to play?
>>748922365the one your friends all agree to play on
>>748922365pve i hate getting ganked when i wanna chill and quest
>>748922602Druid was more fun than Priest or Paladin for me. I haven't played Shaman before, I'll try it in Forever.
>>748922280>no campfire storiesMaybe you should tell one. I typed the last time I was at a campfire. I said something like>I logged in to take a screenshotI didn't take the screenshot because it was an odd hour and there weren't enough people. I remember seeing lots of people in Shadowglen, but it was probably the evening. Another story I could tell is dying while doing a quest, which is crazy. I was fighting a named furbolg but there's a second dude nearby. I kill one, loot, and the other one ended my life. Thought I was playing WoW and not Dota 2. Shit is dangerous out there.
>>748909852How's Octo? I've heard it's the spawnling of Turtle
>>748922634See, my fear is that PvE will be where all the "comfysIop" enjoyers will be. It also feels like the most likely to be infested with homos and troons tbqhwyf. PvP seems like it would be chud heaven
>>748922373How punishable is it if you break character? Not intentionally, I don't want to ruin anyone else's fun and I kinda want to try it but I don't want to get banned for saying something that isn't appropriate for the race or class I'm playing or something.
>>748922365PvP is exhilarating if you’re playing a Rogue. Stealthing around in enemy zones and cities it’s is own fun minigame unlike any other in WoW.That said, I intend to roll RP and just chill out. I don’t like to gank and mass wpvp events get old pretty quickly.
>>748922830the way you're talking go pvp... jesus christ
>>748922634>>748922830I want to play PvE but I hate the idea of cross faction play and I don't trust that Blizzard won't add it in the future while the PvP server should be safe from it.
>>748922928>immediate seetheThank you for the confirmation that PvE will be where all the fags are
Man i just created a human warrior and i cantI find humans, dwarves, gnomes so fucking generic
Is there going to be forced faction balance in the PvP realm? If not it might end up really imbalanced towards one faction and become unplayable for the other faction.
>>748923020For me it's just Humans that are crazy generic. I played a Human in Baldur's Gate 3, but the dude has a crazy ass backstory to prevent him from being lame. He's actually a walking nuke that could explode and take out a city. They had to make it that serious for the character to not be boring. I don't think I could play a Human in WoW.
>>748923223I just like to play as a fantasy class when playing a fantasy gamePlus i can not stand gnomes, at all
>>748922907>break characterthe rules on an RP server are:- pick a normal name that isn't a joke or a meme- don't grief people who are engaging in RPno one is going to automatically expect you to engage in RP with them, and 99% of the time people will be speaking out of character in dungeon groups and such
>>748923317sounds like pve but without the internet retards , sweet
I've 4 ideas for what to play, but I'm not sure which first.. what do y'all think?[PvP] Alliance: Human Discipline Priest / Night Elf Feral DPS Druid[RP] Horde: Tauren Protection Warrior / Skyborne Elemental Shaman
>>748923317That sounds nice, maybe I'll try it.
>>748922830troons rolled on rp realms
>>748923394Priest can be fun in PvP with Mind Control, even more fun if you go Night Elf instead of Human for the Shadowmeld.
>racials I CANT DECIDE WHAT TO PLAYt. Solo t. PvE t. Retard
Can I make orc warrior and join Alliance? I don't want to live in grass hut.
>>748923645no
>>748923645Is this a clever ruse or are you unironically thinking about playing WoW for the first time in 2026?
>>748923554
RAGE IS BACK BOYS
>>748923645>Can I make orc warrior and join Alliance? I don't want to live in grass hut.Wait, why would you play Orc if you don't want to live in a hut. Are you doing it for PVP reasons? Man, that guy would be me if I decided to play PVP. Gotta live in a hut sometimes, brother. The hut makes you strong, clearly.
>>748923831>>748923554Stand at the Horde flightpath in Felwood in Bloodvenom Post and Mind Control people who land there and jump them down the mountain just beside and they will have to corpserun all the way from Darkshore, through Ashenvale up to Felwood and then jump down to their corpse who is stuck on a ledge in the mountain below, to Hearth or jump down into Darkshore.
Any alliance warrior quest weapon rewards like the OP wolfsbane on horde side?
>>748923779I played it for 3 months when WoW first released, don't remember you could do that, but I was hoping it changed and yes I'm planning to give it a try with fresh start.
>>748908197Alliance>Night Elves, Void Elves and Space Goats have take over the once tight group of Humans, Dwarves and Gnomes>degeneracy is high, morale is lowvs>Horde>Blood Elves dominate all other races by a wide margin, more people are furries than orcs>degeneracy everywhereHuh. I can't pick a faction. Do I want to be>Night Elf Druid or Demon Hunteror>Blood Elf Demon Hunter or Paladin*the most popular race/classes in RetailSuch hard choices.
>>748924091>don't remember you could do that, but I was hoping it changedNah, dude. It wouldn't make sense at all. Like, if I'm walking around Teldrassil, all I see are Night Elves. I don't want to see Night Elves and one Orc dude. This aint real life.
>>748924091you cant no
>>748923645I mean you could surely play as a half-orc/half-human and switch factions when you want. This is a game in 2026 right? And half-orcs were canon back in the RPG from like 2003 right?
How is W3 Reforeged/Forsaken whatever? Still debating on getting that bundle.
>>748908197Blood elves I always play female rogue BTW
>>748909472
Why is Warlock the least played class?
>>748924416If you love being cucked by Sylvanas you will love the new campaign
>asmon already trying to monopoloize alliance server
>>748924478Thankfully im an Anyafag
>>748924416I haven't played it but apparently it's not the normal RTS base building missions, it's more like Rexxar's campaign.
>>748924465I bet it's due to the race/class combos. Warlock and Hunter should be equally appealing because ez solo, but not all races have Warlock.
>>748924514>could have given High Elves to Alliance and Forsaken Elves to the Horde>instead they made blue Elves that belong to both factions
>>748924416Its alright, the forsaken campaign has this weird open world aspect to it. Characters have talent trees and a more expanded equipment menu.
>>748911668>ugly citiesundercity is great and thunder bluff is decent, org is the only shit one
>>748924601>High Elves to AllianceThankfully alliancefags will never get high elves
My duty
How come despite both having round layouts ironforge is loved but undercity is disliked?
>>748924563Also Alliance Warlocks having to deal with Will of the Forsaken and the new Orc racial in PvP.
>>748924465warlock is ALWAYS the least played class dude

>>748924441The raid warnings are important to listen to.
>>748908197Why is alliance the normalfag faction?
>>748924818based>>748924871Maybe people don't like the lifts.
>>748924871>ironforge is loved but undercity is dislikedSays who? They're both the best cities of their respective factions.
>>748925010Look at the faction

>>748924360>>748924395I'm long time Knight Online player and I love how default Warrior race is bigger and more muscular.
>>748924601>Forsaken elvesDont worry we'll get them eventually :^)
>>748925010Because it's the generic fantasy faction with humans, dwarves and elves.

>>748925071this would've stayed the main alliance city if blizzard hadn't shoehorned everything into sw.
>>748925010Horde live in mudhuts while the Alliance has beautiful cities.

>>748908197>white mans queue>nigger hellhmm
>>748925473I like Ironforge a lot more than Stormwind. It's comfier and I find it easier to navigate.
>>748925535I think this guy may have talked me into play Horde.
>>748924871I have never once taken a flight out of Undercity without having to do at least two loops of the fucking inner circle just to find the fucking bat nigger who just blends in with all the other fucking NPCs. That alone is enough to ruin the entire city for me.
>>748925638playing Horde*
>>748913116Yes everyone cool played horde as rebellious teenagers. Then we grew up. I'll give this shit game a try when it comes out as human for the first time.Alliance is western civilization, and the horde are moslem blacks and arabs, mindless destroyers of civilization that create nothing.

>>748925765>Yes everyone cool played horde as rebellious teenagersI actually did. I thought Undead Rogue was the coolest shit back then. I still might play Horde just because of how uppity the Alliance are. I might even PVP.
>>748925765In fairness, the Trolls did build ancient cities, and the Forsaken are the Humans of Lordaeron. Orcs just have mudhuts, they're trash.
>>748925765>Alliance is western civilization, and the horde are moslem blacks and arabs, mindless destroyers of civilization that create nothing.Grow the fuck up jesus christ
>>748925867See >>748919658 >>748920184It's your chance.
>>748925765I've played both factions multiple times before. During the 2019 classic relaunch I cleared Naxx as Alliance, so this time around I'll be going as Horde. Not looking forward to T1/T2 raiding with shithole Kargath as the main "hub" unless they fucking do something to update it with at least a fucking AH or zeppelin or something.
>>748925527too tall, intimidated the stumpy races
>>748918675It was during WoLK
>>748921019To be fair to the orcs, by the time WoW starts, they'd been in Azeroth for all of 25 years and for 90% of that time they'd been engaged in full scale war
>>748908197The vanilla horde just feels like more of a brotherhood than the alliance to meJust look at these chads
>>748926198I haven't played TBC, when you go to Outland are there Orc cities there?
>>748926142>too tallthey had it in retail at bfa
>>748926209same in gameplayhorde are friendlier playersalliance are mostly assholse and narcs
>>748924441This is what I miss.
>>748926209If only the playable Tauren and Trolls looked like that in game, then Horde really would be worth playing. As-is only Orcs and Forsaken look cool.
>>748908197alliance is betterbarrens questing is peak wow but most of their other zones are half baked and i don't like the forsaken because they're too evil
>>748926265blame those big nosed greenskinsalways trying to keep the blue man down
>>748926407>i don't like the forsaken because they're too evil>plays alliance safe space boring fantasy racesLMAO
>>748921136>civilisations hundreds or thousands of years old can get rekt by dudes that live in mudhutsThe Horde looses pretty much every war with the Alliance.
>>748926303Naw, the Alliance seem friendly to me, and all this thread proved is that the Humans are unfriendly. Someone even said nobody talks in the Human starting zone. Good thing there's a month to think about Alliance or Horde. I should be pretty sure what I want to play by the time Forever comes out. It just looks like a choice between comedy or nicer people.
>>748926561>comedydon't tell me asmonshit's funny to you
>>748908197horderole-playing megaserverthe undead only layerfinal destination
>>748926598Comedy is meant to be Horde, and I don't watch your e-celeb.
>>748908197I played alliance on the anniversary servers to try something new and I dont think ive experienced a more passive aggresive group of players. Not doing that again.
>>748926546>pretty muchthought you'd slip that by me eh?
>>748925527they need to be hunched because if they stood up straight they'd be taller than taurenthis can be seen in the male troll idle animation where he stands up to stretch for a secondtauren are as big as a playable race is allowed to be otherwise they'd stop being able to fit through doors
>>748909863Theres a big difference between working eith dem9ns and selling your planet to them for some power. Perfect example being the space goats. If anything the dranai should have joined the horde.
>>748918869skill issue, you just don't know how to play a paladin
>>748926768God damn I miss the old wow forums
>>748926546>The Horde looses pretty much every war with the Alliance.As a hordefag this is sadly true. Just look at BFA, other than the attack on the night elves and the burning of teldrassil (which was a suprise attack with most of the alliance being distracted by a diversion), the horde lost every single other battle against the alliance, even the two warfronts the horde lost lorewiseSad zug zug...
>>748918869here's what blizzard said about it back in the day. classic paladin is literally made for retards.
>>748926723>they need to be hunched because if they stood up straight they'd be taller than taurenZandalari trolls didnt have that problem
>>748926748They should have joined the faction that enslaved, raped, and made a giant road using their bones because???
>>748926768>>748926862This is not classic, how many times do you i have to tell you
>>748924465Theres going to be a massive healer shortage. Every Paladin is going ret/prot and every Druid is going feral and maybe some psychos will go balance.
>>748909251>tfw rp server

>>748927001I've never played Shamans before, are they fun healers?
>>748920279>>74892032920 years worth of pent up "man why can't i play that"
>>748926881zandalari are shorter than darkspear though, significantly so
>>748927084shamans arent fun before cataclysm
>>748927214Yeah and i want them back
>>748908840Orgrimmar is objectively better laid out than Stormwind, but Ironforge is objectively just the best city layout and it really isn't even close. Undercity would be close but getting in and out of it on foot is fucking tedious and it's only a good hub if you're doing Hinterlands and WPL and EPL. Doing Silverpine is a waste when The Barrens exists.
>>748912759the fingers are still on his shoulder
>>748927001if you think everybody playing pally and druid means there's going to be a lot of tanks you're in for a rude awakening broevery pally will be some dipshit ret and every druid will be some autistic cat-only nigger who flat out refuses to tank despite literally being specced into 99% of tank talents at all timessame as it ever was
>>748927316Thunderbluff is breddy good. The totem in the center being indoors is a little inconvenient but it's small enough that barely matters.
>Forever doesn't have space goat women
Do you still have to do that bullshit that makes you juggle 50 zones to not run out of level relevant quests in forever?
>>748927441No they included 1000+ quests
>>748927441no. there's literally new zones and thousands of new quests
>>748927387TB is pretty underrated yeah. The smelter being right next to the AH is pretty based.
Why does everyone hate Teldrassil? It's my favourite city.
>>748908328>shinda292fucking metal artist its pretty funny that he mained a blood elf and draws them getting killed by the shitload lmao
>>748927387>>748927495aloliance always goes to sw or ifnobody goes to elf cityhorde has tb, uc and og bussling with people
>>748926256Hellfire citadel. Worth noting that the outland is literally a destroyed planet floating in the twisting nether. The orcs there are the ones that didn't go through the dark portal.Warlords of draenor has some better pre-burning legion examples.
>>748927441There's more quests in Forever. You used to have to do shit like take a boat to the other half of the world to continue levelling. >>748927529Do you mean Darnassus? Teldrassil is the zone.
>>748927562Darnassus is just tits on a boarhog worthless. What were they fucking thinking? It's easily the worst hub, not just in location but even the layout is just dogshit.>let's put the AH a million miles from the bank>we can even put all the profession vendors a million miles from that too!
>>748927529It's in the middle of nowhere and a pain to navigate to. It's fuarking pretty though, I'll give it that.
>>748927665i just want another wotlk dalaran
NO SHOES NIGGA
>>748916424Female Dwarf Shaman are actually kinda cute using the HD models. There's that one face.
>>748927684They did change the boats. There's one from Stormwind to Darkshore, and Darkshore also has a boat to Wetlands/Hillsbrad.Maybe it will make Darnassus more popular.
>>748927704I want Alah'Thalas
>>748927775>There's that one faceshare an image of it with us anon
I like the undead the most but once you leave the starting areas the horde architecture is 90% dominated by orc buildings and the playerbase mostly plays blood elves. so the end result is that aesthetically the horde is a bunch of fancy elf boys living in stick huts. that becomes the dominating visual you see expansion after expansion. I suppose in forever half of that problem will be solved at least.As for the alliance it's a similar issue I like the night elves but you rarely see anything night elf themed once you leave the starting areas, everything is human themed though I much prefer human architecture over orc architecture and that's the sole reason I swapped to alliance. though it is annoying losing 70% of battlegrounds.. and prior to cross faction mythic+ the pve scene was also a joke.
>>748927886reddit pasta
>>748927782Still have to leave Darnassus to get to the flight master and then fly to Auberdine. Just put an AH and bank at Auberdine and then Auberdine can be the hub, lol.
>>748908197It makes me scoff how Alliance faggots thought their redditor lines were a point of favor.If you seriously log into an MMO to queue in a virtual line for 30 minutes, you are an autistic freak.
>>748924465Warlocks are mushrooms
>>748922373RP-PvP when?
>>748927665>want to get to silithus from darnassus>literally faster to hearth from darn to IF, fly to menethil harbor, and take the boat to theramore then fly from there than it is to fly from darnshit's so goddamn stupid.
How much of the alliance is night elf stuff? From my limited exposure to WoW it seems like alliance "theming" is mostly humans and dwarves. Once you leave their starter island and a couple of the early northwest zones do you ever really see night elf settlements again?
>>748928057almost all of the alliance settlements in kalimdor are nelf themed bro
>>748908197Been enjoying Monsters and Memories as a dwarf rogue :)
>>748928057Okay once I submitted my post and the page refreshed I saw this: >>748927886 and that pretty much answers my question
>>748927886>but you rarely see anything night elf themed once you leave the starting areasDarkshore, Ashenvale Forest, Feralas, Azshara and Felwood all of a lot of Night Elf architecture. Stonetalon Mountains, Desolace and Winterspring have some too.
>>748928051Yeah doing southern Kalimdor as Alliance is just a huge pain in the ass. Private servers merging all AHs makes at least makes Gadgetzan a really good hub for Alliance.
>>748926209Fuck the haters, these DE models are fantastic.
>>748928057Night Elf stuff are all in Kalimdor. If you're going to remain in the Eastern Kingdoms you won't really see any of it.
>>748913690>more nuancedKael'thas was, illidan was just a power hungry beta incel
>>748927529I hate it. They went with a very weird mix of Greek and Japanese architecture and it just looks weird.
>>748928150it's completely wrong, desu. maybe if you only level in EK that could be true, but every kalimdor alliance town is night elf themed except for theramore.
>>748928206>these DE models are fantastic.I've hated everything blizzard has done since bra but credit where credit is due, forsaken kingdom and definitive edition is damn good. Not prefect but a real step in the right direction
>>748928302Aesthetic is the one thing NOT wrong with Darnassus, kill yourself.
>>748927886Forever has the same problem, now with skelves!
the tauren language being taurahe is pretty fun to say though
>>748927529>Why does everyone hate Teldrassil?I love Teldrassil as a leveling zone. It's literally my favorite leveling zone. After that, it's objectively the most worthless zone in the entire game by a very wide margin.
>want to roll on PvP again because it makes the world feel more alive and engaging>I never end up initiating any fights or attacking anyone, so 99% of the time I'm just the victim getting gankedMaybe I should go PvE this time...
>>748927935alliance players will look at >>748908197 and ask "why do we always lose at pvp?!?"
>>748928501are you even able to go back to their starting zone after you leave it?
>>748927704>tiny cramped "city" where everything is super convenient>shared faction cityRetail is that way buddy.
>>748928630>why do we always lose at pvp?!Will of the Forsaken.
>>748928464The Greek shit doesnt even mesh with how NEs were in WC3, revisionist lorelet.
>>748927782Hyjal is an endgame zone so yes, darna will be used this time around. Honestly Darnassus is the only city I miss as Horde, I'm a sucker for elf woods (the elves themselves not so much). I guess there's Ashenvale but my Horde bros keep chopping it down..
>>748928650Yes you get to take a giant magical floating arcane ship from Thunderbluff. It really fits the vanilla WoW aesthetic doesn't it?
>>748928728I don't care, Darnassus is beautiful and that's the only thing going for it.
>>748928691metaphorically, sure
>>748908197>azeroth choppers>horde wins>from what I remember all horde players got the mount for free and earlier than the alliance got theirs and ally's had to pay>this was limited time and the horde one got removed from the game>the alliance once is still available in game despite being the one that lostMake it make sense
>>748928758Soooo an airship? Other than it being too HD its fine conceptually.
>>748928629don't think i've ever had a well matched fight in wowit's stomp or get stomped
>>748927935>If you seriously log into an MMO to queue in a virtual linebasically every single player did this on launch day thoughever
>>748927529I hate that it looks like they live in the ruins of their own civilization but can't be bothered to keep them well maintained. Even more weird considering it's all newly built alongside with the new world tree.They should've gone all in on the wood and trees, leaving the ancient ruins to the spirits.
>>748928154I was including darkshore and ashenvale as nelf starting area like silverpine is to undead.I get what you're saying but a few nelves standing around 1 building on a mountain in an unfinished zone offering 3 quests that go nowhere doesn't qualify as a night elf zone to me. ashenvale is the gold standard of the beautiful endless enchanted forest that i associate with night elves and we didn't get anything at ashenvale's level until ardenweld. But at least the night elf players get some bread crumbs which is more than can be said for anyone who is a fan of the undead.
>>748928750>Tauren are their Druid friends>Trolls are their ancestors>Tyrande and Maiev were both very friend and got along well with Kael'Thas and the Blood Elves in Warcraft IIIIf the Orcs stopped cutting down Ashenvale the Night Elves could have been friendly with the Horde. Maybe not with the corpses defiling life itself, but Tauren shouldn't be their friends either.
>>748928832I've been in some actually competitive BGs but that was a very long time ago. These days yeah, it really is stomp or get stomped. Whoever runs the sweaty twink premade wins.
>>748928881
>>748928758The modern wow devs are truly clueless.
>>748928804don't they give it to everyone? i logged into retail at one point last year to see how shit it was and i got the deathwheel instantly when i logged in
>>748928815>its fine conceptuallyHow hard is it to just make another fucking zep line? Even Epoch managed to do it.
>>748928883>a few nelves standing around 1 building on a mountain in an unfinished zone offering 3 questsThat does describe Stonetalon Mountains and Desolace, but Feralas and Azshara are all Night Elf architecture. Dire Maul is was built by the Night Elves.
>>748928804Apparently legal bullishit
>>748929051Correct, a brand new player would receive the mount immediately on logging in for the first time.
>>748928930>If the Orcs stopped cutting down Ashenvale the Night Elves could have been friendly with the Horde.The NE can extract infinite wood for free with the wisps. They can stop the Orcs any time they want.
>>748928962Is this not how you remember Orgrimmar?
>>748928883>i will just ignore feathermoon stronghold and the entirety of feralas being exactly what i'm asking for???
I feel like everyone will just roll RP to avoid ass mongoloid and there won't be any actual RPers.
>>748928930Yeah if the whole cutting down trees and killing Cenarius never happened then night elves would've been a better fit for the horde than alliance. Even Grom was in awe of the night elf sentinels, going so far as to call them "perfect warriors", huge praise and respect coming from him so we can imagine most other orcs would've felt the same
>>748929052Why would those fancy sky elves be using a regular ass zeppelin when they already made their own airships?
>>748908197>playing the negro no-shoes faction
>>748929232RP realms are always like this, and it's highly unlikely the rules will be enforced with Forever.
>>748928883>a few nelves standing around 1 building offering 3 quests doesn't qualify as a night elf zonemeanwhile, human quest hubs:
>>748929276Easy, rewind time, fire the faggots in charge of making blue elves, make it a zeppelin, give Horde Ogres and give Alliance High Elves, and then pretend none of this gay shit ever happened. Oh wait, modern blizz, lol.
>>748928883The devs said they plan to add more quests over time and not all of the 1000+ are in yet.
>>748929339humans aren't tree dwelling magical nature hippies though
>>748929236Yeah I think a wild, savage night elf would fit in more (maybe not completely, but more) with the Horde than Blood elves that are just High elves addicted to fel magic. They toned the Night Elves way down for WoW compared to WC3, the males got butchered with those lame models and casting animations too and the women should have been taller and stronger looking.
>>748929371Should have said High Elves+Belves. Its a financial decision. The Horde needs a pretty race to be competitive. As much as you guys want another ugly bastard race added to the Horde, only like 5% of people would play them (or buy them, in this case).
>>748929290I'm sure the Horde will get something equivalent. Maybe a giant dung heap surrounded by metal spikes and skulls?
>>748929147I will never stop lol'ing at free server seethers
>>7489128474chan is called 4chan because their logo is a clover, it's a wordplay on fortune.
>>748929472>Should have said High Elves+BelvesSure okay whatever. Anything would work better than blue elves invented out of thin air. Even giving Horde Goblins.
>>748929290Americans are so mindbroken they have to compare even fantasy races to their own blacks and try and cast themselves as the "good guys", even though they're generally a plague on the earth and most of the shit they love and attribute to "whiteness" is actually European (and Europeans hate americans lmao)..t euro
>>748912847lets not think too hard about the whored and their iconogrophy
>>748929236I think they could have even forgiven the Cenarius thing, considering they did put it aside at the end of Warcraft III and fought side by side. If Thrall guaranteed that it was a horrible mistake that won't repeat and the main offender (Grom) was dead, and they stopped cutting down Ashenvale they would have been friends even with Cenarius' death.
>>748929627Having no culture but nigger rap culture does that to people.
>>748929627Nah fuck off this dumb comparison shit is just as eu faggotry as us, the venn diagram you faggots share is being losers who never grew up or parroting some retard you follow online in an echo chamber
>>748929371>>748929472They were going to give High Elves to Alliance and Blood Elves to Horde but Chris Metzen said no.
>>748929817Based Metzen keeping WoW as gay and stupid as possible for the retards who still give blizz money.
>>748929686Funny when you consider that it's revealed in that Cenarius isn't even truly dead, he comes back in cata
>>748929096old desolace was just earthern ring dealing with centaur and naga on the beach. felwood is mostly earthern ring dealing with demons and corrupted furbolg, and feralas is the closest but is mostly themed after ogres. feathermoon was like 5 quests and is unfinished. all of these zones are wildly unfinished. (from what i understand forever will fix some of that). if you're a fresh night elf player blown away by the grand night elf starting zone it's generally all downhill afterwards with the exception of ashenvale. but yes at least you still get something. i'd still argue you have to wait until ardenweld to finally relive that high. conversely undead players have to wait until the plagelands to see that cool theme again but the plagelands are also unfinished and more themed after the Argent Dawn
>>748929817fuck metzen.
>>748929743You'll def see some retarded anglo or nordic euros spout the same shit, sure, but it's only due to the internet and social media spreading american culture to these countries like a disease (on purpose of course, cultural propaganda).
>>748929817>we're going to add more elves>can you guys do something a bit more wild?>we're going to add elves, but BLUE!KEK
>>748929339is that the welcome quests to STV? that is not a human quest hub
>>748908197The human experience is overrated as fuck and I'm tired of pretending it's not
>>748929817My only cope is that they're aware it was a huge mistake and will>Minimize Skelves in future content>Use them sparingly, with neutral skin tones and golden eyes>Retcon their own starting zone and just call them High Elves but just the subfaction has that name
>>748929817>Or similar >WE WERE LITERALLY GETTING EXACTLY WHAT I WANTEDWeren't the assets also unfinished? Image the faggot free server posters having the time of their lives with a half assed product (That theyre used to) being behind a pay wall. Crazy dumb narrative for something they've confirmed will be in the game later on.
>>748929982rebel camp is part of more quests than nijel's point
>>748929913>feathermoon was like 5 quests and is unfinishedI thought the interest was in Night Elf architecture mainly, and you'll see it all over Feralas. Dire Maul and the other ruins are all Night Elf architecture, same in Azshara.
>>748930002Redridge is an objectively dogshit zone, especially on pvp servers. Being forced to bounce back and forth from Redridge and Westfall is cancer.
>>748930002you are allowed to have as many retarded opinions as you want, but you should really keep them to yourself unless you want people to laugh at and insult you
>>748929951Nah, both countries have their share of abysmal racist faggotry, it's just one is about browns and the other is blacks
Another problem with the Sky Elves, besides having 0 presence in WC2 or 3 like pretty much every other playable race has is that they also have 0 presence in the world post their isolated start zone. Sure Gnomes don't get a lot either but there's still at least something there. Playing a Sky Elf is going to feel so disconnected lore wise vs stuff like Night Elf, Human, Undead etc.
>>748930002>overrated as fuckIs it, though? I feel like it's not glazed at all. >Glazed but goodTeldrassil>Not glazed but goodDun morogh>Here's your zone, homosElwynn
>>748930002Besides Darkshire which is genunely a 10/10 atmosphere zone I agree. They're just standard fantasy faire human lands.
>>748928728The nelves had Greek ionic columns everywhere in WC3>pic related
>>748930002I'm one of the few that love Darkshore and always prioritize questing there and in Ashenvale Forest. Auberdine is my favourite town in the game and I always have my Hearthstone there.
>>748930002I'd argue that Duskwood into STV is absolute kino but yeah Darkshore and Loch modan beat the everloving shit out of westfall and redridge and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.
>>748930151I agree with him. Elwynn is too wide. Redridge is a dogshit zone that has no right being Contested, and Westfall's boring and ugly. Elwynn is at least nicer to look at than Durotar, I'll give it that.
>>748930125>especially on pvp serversUnfortunately the new Merchant's Favor camp for the Alliance is there, so if you want those crafting recipes you're forced to go there. Horde's camp is safe in the uncontested Barrens.
>>748930159Anon this isn't going to be a 1:1 creation of vanilla, and sky elves are already part of the hook for whenever we get attacked by or attack the elemental plane of wind.
The main issue is that since Sky Elves were a paid race they cant just haphazardly change them since that comes with all sorts of legal issues especially for EU nerds. They easily could say "Hey so sorry the Sky Elf thing was a mistake were gonna remove the blue skin and just call them high elves and were gonna redo the starting zone." But im sure theres 5 people out there who actually like Sky Elf lore that would threaten to sue or something, get EU commissions involved, etc and then they'd be forced to offer refunds.
>>748929472>Should have said High Elves+Belves. Its a financial decision. The Horde needs a pretty race to be competitiveWRONGching shills need to stop repeating this lie
>>748930290I wish there was more to do in Loch Modan. Half the zone is just elite Ogres and if no other player wants to quest there with you then there's not much to do.
>>748930332When we said we wanted Classic+ its typically understood as "Give us more content based on confirmed locations, factions and people in the established lore." not "Make up new stuff entirely."
IF they weren't cowards trying to pussyfoot around the fact that this is a new timeline so they can unmake shitty retail mistakes they would bring back Kael'Thas from outland and make him the Blood Elf leader whenever they decide to add those or Quel'Thalas. But they won't do it because they're going to pretend forever is just stuck in frozen time between Vanilla and TBC and will never explicitly alter the canon.
>>748929817And of course the cuck Aggrend didnt even attempt to reason against it. That guy will do anything to not rock the boat.
>>748930375I wish you idiots would stop citing this bullshit site. It swings wildly every single day between horde and alliance and the numbers as well.
>>748930159>Playing a Sky Elf is going to feel so disconnected lore wise vs stuff like Night Elf, Human, Undead etc.True, they're going to be at the same level as gnomes.
>>748930058>Retcon their own starting zone and just call them High ElvesFunnily enough they had a few quests in the beta refer to them as High Elves. Thrall greets them as High Elves too.
>>748927529Baited by the name but it's just kinda big for low levels and then to do anything else it's a fairly long walk/fp back to then do more walking because darkshore is l o n g. They could do some work to fix it, I hope they do, people using all the major cities would be cool>>748930241>>748928728>Muh WC3have you guys bothered to replay this within the last idk ten years? Besides some fairly poorly drawn together story beats it's not really worth holding up as some sacred cow
>>748930469>It swings wildly every single day between horde and alliance and the numbers as well.You mean its counting the actual characters online which also swing wildly every single day? dumb retard lmao
>>748930314>deliberately choose the "i want to have my time wasted by other players" server>get upset when you need to enter contested territory and have your time wasted by other playersHow could this be happening to me?
>>748929817>metzen won't allow the alliance to have high elveswtf you guys told me metzen wasn't based
>>748930515>have you guys bothered to replay this within the last idk ten years? Besides some fairly poorly drawn together story beats it's not really worth holding up as some sacred cowYou know you really don't do much to engender love for the game you're trying to sell when you shit on the only reason people played WoW in the first place, try a different marketing technique
>>748930541weird how it only applies to one faction
>>748908197
>>748930332At best that would be a small quest hub and some npcs in a dungeon, if that. I'm talking about zones with npcs, towns, lore etc. They should have had the elf island actually crash somewhere in azeroth and be part of the world at the very least, and have the sky elves expand outwards from there with settlements.

I want Naga as a playable race.

>>748930515>have you guys bothered to replay this within the last idk ten years? Besides some fairly poorly drawn together story beats it's not really worth holding up as some sacred cow
>>748930515>have you guys bothered to replay this within the last idk ten years?Yeah? I got around 1600MMR on W3C before they remove the glaive bounce on buildings for Huntresses. Fuck that nerf.
>>748930690
>>748930625So you haven't then? Because I replayed it earlier this year and there's a lot of nostalgia but a large chunk of WoW already retconned shit in vanilla. Those columns are a good example of just generic as fuck ruins in an RTS and turning around with "BUT THE COLUMNZZ!!" is kind of retarded.
>>748930650The decision was based on lore not convenience. Not everything in game design has to be "equal". One faction getting 5 dungeons in friendly territory doesnt mean they have to force exactly 5 into the other if they dont have ideas for it.
>>748930764I think they were gonna but they didn't know how to make mounts work with them
wow this sure is an organic threadUmm can U guys say LE FRESH?
>>748930843Who cares about mounts, have them slither super fast.
>>748930834Thats a great way to have your factions lopsided and have half your playerbase quit over time
>>748925010>Alliance has plumbing and doesnt sleep on dirt floorsThis was my immediate reaction and my reason to roll alliance back in 05.

>>748930417Who is we? Freefriends? Classic andies? Nochanges fags? Retailfriends? Biggest issue with the game is people interpreting "Classic+" (Mentioned all of one time) as "Game I personally envisioned">>748930712That sounds neat, I figured it was to leave them walled off to make it slightly more difficult for other races to dip into the immersion (They can still get there just takes some leg work.). If it wasn't for people REEing into the sun I figured most the starter zones would get a slight story re-vamp to realign the focus on looming threats. Dwarfs kinda did it with the new dark iron stuff but left a lot to be desired compared to NEs/SEs desu.
>>748930834You mean like how Horde can literally teleport to Gnomeregan while Alliance have to spend an hour to go through 2.5 zones to get to Scarlet Monastery?
>>748930515>have you guys bothered to replay this within the last idk ten years? Yeah I just finished WC3 reign of chaos last week, playing TFT and WC1 now.It definitely had some issues. The nelf campaign is pretty boring, Tyrande being an especially uninteresting character, Thrall being Orc moses, Archimonde being defeated by wisps, Mannoroth being 1 shot in a cut scene, etc...The arthas and fel orc sections were pure kino though, even if arthas was just a twist on the king arthur story (excalibur vs frostmourne, merlin vs jaina but actually kel thuzad, uther vs... uther)Despite the issues, the story is infinitely more interesting than anything post Legion in WoW
>>748930912You can't just do shit like this in a game where a mount is a major reward for so many activities. I know it may sound cool but from a game design perspective it doesn't work. At best you could invent some sort of Naga subrace able to uncurse themselves back into night elves and they only assume naga forms in combat, solving the mount issue.
>>748908197Is WoW worth playing if I just keep a free account? I know there’s a low level cap
>>748930912Sadly Blizzard cares, they want to sell mounts in the cash shop. Can't sell slither speed. They could have them wrap themselves around the horse or something.
>>748931047Thats the widely agreed upon definition and concept of Classic+. Im not gonna argue it with you since you're clearly being disingenuous.
>>748931039hes playing on pve tho
>>748931090made a f2p twink a decade ago and had a blast seeing how much of the game i could access with the level cap
>>748931080>into night elvesThey're high elves. NElves are the plebs who didn't sink down.Regardless that would be extremely gay and lame. The entire point of Naga is playing as Naga, not as a faggot elf with two legs.
>>748930843Is that why Ogres weren't added either?
>>748931039don't worry he's expanding his guild to Horde too with>Dust Monkeys
>>748931245Yes you're right, though given their depiction in game they'd stil use a night elf-like model and not the blood elf/high elf one. It's not a good solution but they're never going to implement a race that can't use a mount. Even Worgen that can look fucking stupid on them (though Worgen look stupid in general)
>>748931160Congrats you figured out that this isn't Classic+, but what Blizzard wanted as it, which is why isn't not called Classic+. I'm not being disingenuous, I'm annoyed at whiny autismos focusing on a single word. Besides, SE's lore doesn't really effect anything they're secluded right now story wise expect for dropping a hint at Wind content. Their lore is fine. If they had muh sd models 3/4 of the complaints wouldn't of even started. You can look at the forever subreddit and there's the post about bow animations, clearly, this team is not great at porting things over/around.
>>748930819>So you haven't then?Yeah I replay it all the time. Are you stupid? It's one of the best games ever made.
>>748931165No he's on pvp. But he will get his shit pushed in 24/7 by gankers until he quits, so I assume he's changing to pve by the end of the year
>>748931080>You can't just do shit like this in a game where a mount is a major reward for so many activities. I know it may sound cool but from a game design perspective it doesn't workIt absolutely would you idiot and a mount ISNT a reward for any activities, you pay for them.
>>748931160Unfortunately not everyone actually understands what Classic+ even is, especially Blizzard.
>>748931268That's an easier problem to solve for the Ogre, you can just have them carry the horse.
>>748928630This.There are obviously exceptions, but the factions subtly select for different personality types. The Alliance just naturally selects for people who are more docile, and that's not a mentality that makes a PvP badass. They're just psychologically weaker and less competitive.
>>748931538Now you're thinking with both heads
>>748930912If it was that easy they would have kept Plainsrunning on Tauren.
>>748931627they should have
>>748931597remind me again which faction could not stop pissing and shitting themselves over a "pvp trinket" racial?
>>748931080>You can't just do shit like this in a game where a mount is a major reward for so many activitiesYou can and I fucking hate anyone who thinks the way you do.There is nothing wrong with content that only part of the playerbase gets to have, like class quests which are kino.
>mogs mounts cheevos>retail UI>shitty new grafix settings that look worse than what a modder could do in a few hours>blue elves>completely fucked class design and balance>new dungeons are just low effort empty hallwaysIt's already fucked, it can't be salvaged
>>748931245>>748931483>>748931826Lmao
>>748931268ogres weren't added because no one would play them unless they had INCREDIBLE racials. undead is only popular because paladin is absurdly overpowered. gnome population is about to plummet because their racial got nerfed for the second time
>>748931268Ogres are in Monsters and Memories :)
>>748931890honestly the only dealbreaker for me is the blue elvesit's just not classicthey look fucking retarded and a neutral race in classic is the dumbest fucking shit, this isn't retail where the two factions had decades to learn to tolerate each otherlogically each would just assume the elves are working for the other faction and kick them out

Might be alliance for Dwarf Shaman. Hope they add face paint at some point.
>>748932310>this isn't retail where the two factions had decades to learn to tolerate each otherFunny because the Blue vs Red factions feel extremely forced in vanilla after the WC3 campaign.
>>748932597i don't care, the NPCs will be blue and plenty of players are using the blue skin. it's beyond retarded.
>>748932648It wasn't even planned, people asked for it.
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTCosmetics are often a way of showing off some achievement the player made. Paid cosmetics have their place, but only if they're relatively subtle and tasteful. Big, flashy cosmetics pretty much always look dumb with the sole exception showing off some big achievement. The only condition of being big and glowing and sparkling is as a way of saying "oh yeah, I did that!" This is completely subverted if said cosmetics were paid for. Not only do you look stupid to everyone, if the only thing your big, flashy cosmetics indicate is that you gave the publisher/developer money, the only thing you're bragging about when you wear them is being the king of the cocksuckers.
WoW Forever is very fun but I hate that I'm beta testing, just release the fucking game stop wasting my time nigger.

Okay so we hate them in game but what happened here?>pointlessly long ass names that go outside the UI>blue skin blue hair ugly ass icon model>singular icon mirrored for the other factionIt's like they rushed the fuck of this screen one hour before beta release
>>748908197I want the Zandalari back, but without them screaming "Wakanda forevah!" just because the wow writing team liked Black Panther
alliance has better cities and 90% of endgame is sitting around in cities waiting for queues or groups while botting the AH armor looks better on horde than it does on alliance, especially plate on orcs and cloth on undead and trollsracials are irrelevant for pvp because you can just win trade to get whatever arena rewards you wanthorde has better racials for raiding, alliance has better M+ racials, but M+ is a tranny mode so i have to give it to horde i would say alliance if you want a smooth endgame experience, horde if you want to push actual content that isnt trannythic+ keys or you really really care about how your character looks
>>748932597>Did you know the blue skin is optional?Did you know subscribing is optional?
>>748933413Forever was compiled in the week before Blizzcon probably
>>748908197What if they make Zul'Gurub the troll capital?
>>748933617Microsoft cracked the whip for sure.
>>748928758>a giant magical floating arcane shipwhat the actual fuck
>>748933413It does crack me up how they gaze at one another like lovers separated by the faction lines
>>748908197i like it when a community bands together to form lines to keep things running smoothly. i remember doing it in the division 1 when it came out and several times in xiv
>>748930986>human dicklollmao
>>748933919That's right.
>>748933884Reminds me of the time a whole bunch of people gathered in WoW for a funeral and they got ganked.

>>748933884I like it too, I laugh at it and cut in line and finish before all those retards
>>748933381The starting zone and Dalaran I might be misremembering Dal, but I'm p sure there were a few, finished the SE stuff up maybe a week ago now. There were enough there that it got me wondering if the people screeching about bloos actually even watched a stream of the zone because non-whites are very triggering to /current year pol faggots/, and there's plenty of them. I didn't go out of my way to screen shot them everytime I found but these were just in my folder>>748933507Why are you in the thread?
>>748934263>There were enough there that it got me wondering if the people screeching about bloos actually even watched a stream of the zone because non-whites are very triggering to /current year pol faggots/, and there's plenty of them. I didn't go out of my way to screen shot them everytime I found but these were just in my folderNice schizo babble, it doesn't matter what colour they are, they aren't high elves or blood elves. Nobody wants a race of nu-elves in place of the things that actually exist in the game already. Kill yourself. This isn't in the spirit of vanilla, it's retail garbage.
>>748932893>he enboughtenated
why the fuck would anyone want to be a faggot prancing elf when they could be a retarded ugly powerful brute ogre who just eats, kills, fucks and shits all god damned day. that is my power fantasy. being an ogre.
>>748909472Anon here, posted this by mistakeMeant to post my XXXL Dragon Dildo collectionBut I didn't have a video in the right file sizeCompressing still might take a whilePlease be patient Ohh btw I watch Hasan Piker and love seeing people starve to death under communism
>there are people ITT who actually enpurchasenificationationated the forever beta
It's going to look really stupid if they add the retail models for players but not everything else.
>>748934172>players because their idol is thereDo you mean the streamer guy? I'm kind of confused why people idolise a regular guy. Is it because he's rich?
>>748934662He's not even a regular guy, he's basically a subhuman who doesn't have all the normal brain functions a human should have and lives with mold and roaches. And no, it's because he's a chud and says whatever they want to hear
>>748921031Moonkin are very closely related to Elune (hence the name) so I guess it boosts their offensive spells.
>>748934819Thanks for the quick rundown. I don't know anything about the guy. Someone even asked me in this thread>you think asmongold is funny?and I've never watched one of his videos. I was saying the Horde are funny, even if it's not intentional. The OP image proves it.
>>748931627It's a movement speed buff atm
Tbh both are kinda gay.Alliance would be cooler if they just embraced being imperialists who conquer lesser races rather than trying to be le heckin good guys who just want peace.The Horde would be cooler if they leaned more into their villainy unapologetically instead of playing the victim after willingly committing war crimes.But if you don't care about lore, just go Alliance, they have the better zones & cities.
Oh no the melty freefriend is posting again
>>748921019>>748921136>>748926198Don't take it too seriously, it's just theming. Alliance is high fantasy. Horde is Sword and Sorcery. (Except the Forsaken who are dark fantasy.) Them being mud hut loincloth dudes who thwart conspiracies from evil sorcerers and best decadent civilizations far more advanced than themselves is all a part of the theme.
>>748933413the whole race is shoehorneddidnt the leak that correctly predicted skyborne talk about how behind schedule the dev team was
>i dont want skelvesss>i want blood elves and high elves which are the exact same thing as skelveswhy are wow players so fucking retarded?why the fuck is blizzard adding so many fucking elves, there are even retards in these threads asking for fucking nightbornekys elvesfags
>>748934178>Then everyone clapped
I've never played WoW because it feels like trying now would be coming in at the end of things and I'd be stuck playing catchup, but I'll give Forever a shot since I can be there from the start.From the outside looking in, the Alliance looks like a bunch of pussy-whipped limp-dicked losers so I want to be in the Horde. Probably a troll because they look funny.
>>748934903i dont understand this race it just looks like a night elf
>>748936190Because free server fags just want to shitpost because blizzard took their server away
>>748936190>hee hee they LOOK the sameno apple appears in your head, you evolutionary cul-de-sac
>>748936383you tell him sister, hopefully blizzard adds nightborne, undead elves, high elves, blood elves, the dracthyr humanoid forms, we need more elves!
>>748936447you fucking strawmanning nigger I only want high elves, not a bunch of meme smurfs with no stake in the world that happen to share 3d geometry with them.
>>748936876kill yourself, elf faggot
>>748936963broken record with nothing to say
>>748931763The Alliance?They literally bitch about Will of the Forsaken constantly.
