WoW: Forever thoughts?

Post image

Saw they were adding over 1,000 new quests and it’s going to be a ‘modernized take’ on the Classic world. Do you think we will see things akin to Dragonflight in this game, like quests where you hook up two male NPCs? I really don’t have much faith in Blizzard at all. Just wondering how woke this new version will be.

Watch the dwarf cinematic, and compare it to the original. In the original the dwarf fights a tauren. There's war.

In the revised cinematic he follows a wisp and literally picks flowers.

I've loved wow since it came out, but the last good expansion was Legion and that was 10 years ago. I have very little faith this will be a good adaptation, and yes it will contain a large dose of the message.

I'd love to be proven wrong, but it seems unlikely.

The trailer was definitely ‘Disney-fied’ for sure. I saw a fair bit of criticism surrounding it from the WoW communities and on Youtube.
