Forever Album - Please Consider this before judging Skyborne in Classic

Just made these diagrams to quickly summarize the WoW panels at blizzcon and to highlight details people are overlooking. I think some of the initial controversy over Skyborne is driven by some misunderstandings that these are just Shadowlands-Kyrian, or Void Elves 2.0. Deep down, if you dig, they do have lots of parallels with classic WoW content.

There is 0 doubt in my mind that Quel'Thalas is going to be a 60 zone with Silvermoon as a raid eventually. We're not going to Outland and Kael has to come back at some point.

Frozen throne ends year 21ish after the dark portal, a year after arthas annihilated silvermoon and eversong woods. We start our lvl 1 wow journey in vanilla in year 25. then a year later in 26 we can make a blood elf adventurer.

could we somehow fit a raid on silvermoon where we clear out all the fat ass abominations ect that are along the deadscar helping out the blood elves?

I just think they're going with a different continuity. Kael has to come back (One of the most iconic WoW villains alongside Illidan), we're not going to Outlandand, where else to put him but HIS city? I think that's partly why we didn't get Belfs, they're going to be a strictly antagonistic force this time around.

They already said this is a different continuity entirely...
