  1. For the love of zodiark just retcon entire shitelands expansion lore there's no salvaging that utter, complete disaster, It will be a permanent shitstain on the lore no matter how good the writing could be for the future story

  2. The worst lore so far was the Shadowlands in its entirety. None of it felt connected to Azeroth like how the original post for the Shadowlands was several years ago. Unless they went back and changed all that, I don't think the 'worst lore in WoW' will have been changed, but perhaps some 'bad lore' is a good start 😂

  3. frankly, I think "time" is a woefully insufficient excuse for how poor the Gilneas quest was. This thing was teased how many months ago? Well before DF launch iirc? And we're in no rush to have this content out the door *right now*. If it needed to happen before WW, okay, there's another 6+ months to go. The roadmaps are great but Blizzard cannot let them be gospel if something is so dreadfully undercooked like this. Keep delivering on the bulk and cadence of it, and players won't care much if occasional bits have to be delayed. Learning opportunity for Blizz right here.

  4. If I remember correctly, Danuser initially said "from a point of view", which could have been interpreted as "an Azerothian point of view". It would still have contradicted Metzen, but I think people would have liked the idea of the Chronicle being from our own characters' point of view. It was Pyromancer who shouted "TITANS" from the audience, to which Steve then confirmed his theory about the Chronicle. Probably not the smartest move, since not everyone liked Pyro's theories.

    As for the in-game cut-scenes, they were actually introduced way back in Cataclysm. You can see most of them while leveling in the Cata endgame zones, and even a few of the revamped old world zones. They were truly primitive back then. It was mostly just the camera zooming in on characters talking with speech bubbles, with standard character animation, sometimes with the player character, and most of the time, there wasn't even any voice acting. Uldum utilized these cut- scenes the most, which is one of the main gripes players have with the Uldum campaign (the other being the Indiana Jones references with Harrison Jones).

  5. Honestly i feel like blizzard is trying to be too innovative in some areas. I have no problems with the good old quests ¨kill 10 of these¨ or ¨bring me this thing¨ In dragonflight they are trying to implement a lot of new minigames and mechanics and ¨fun¨ stuff to do in the world. But i enjoy none of that. I liked torghast. I liked shadowlands. I like grind way more than this df chaos. Maybe i am weird. Also gilneas storyline was fine, but i agree with the fact that it should have been longer.
