@minewreck260 @vjan55 @N_Tys26 You can literally look up the companies names(its public information) and look up that these Shell companies have 0 staff and shit. This is not rocket science?

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

Jesus christ the doom and gloom over this 12.1 story writing is fucking absurd. How about we just, I don't know. We WAIT to see what the raid cinematic actually looks like before we start dooming and glooming. Also, do we just forget that they could have things hidden from us.

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@le_lexel @Portergauge yea but big problem with that, the MAST majority of people don't listen to the dialogue in the first place. the mast majority only does cutscenes or skip everything entirely because that don't care about the lore but only love the game because they like how it plays.

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@AntonioJ31 Or maybe we just know, you know, maybe wait until we do the actual raid kill or some shit and not assume they did anything? Raid Cinematic isn't able to be scene on PTR no? Like holy fuck, lets chill out for one second.

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@le_lexel @Portergauge Unfortunately not going to happen, mast majority asked blizzard saying MSQ is to long to get to end game. So in TWW they shortened the MSQ by 2.5 to 3 hours.

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@eredean I mean this is common is literally any NetEase or Tencent thing they agreed with or have heavy Stock holdings in. NetEase dictating special content for Chinese players has been a thing in any game they're tied to. If I had to guess, chinese client has more Lootboxes/Gatchas.

@tentakvlt Obviously you do care if you're commenting on it XD

@Beartrice_WoW Hope that helps @Beartrice_WoW! From a fellow lurker!

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@Beartrice_WoW It's that NetEase(the partnering thing of blizzard) is doing this marketing themselves. It's the Chinese Blizzard team in china and not HQ that are doing this. It's also the fact that. Asiasn/Eastern will buy certain things most westerns won't(i.E Lootboxes, Gatchas, etc) 2/2

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@Aedrareforged Neighborhoods, don't think so. Warbands kind yea. Lore, definetly not.

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@Portergauge Dragonflight MSQ from Start to Zaralek caverns if you skip dialogue and only do cutscenes. Its 3 to 4.5 hours. For the war within, using the same thing it took 1.5 hours to 2.5 hours. Which is an insane reduction. 4/4

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@Portergauge the story for lore people either feels rushed or feels like there is no direction. Which I'm of the opinion there is a direction but I digress. So the mass majority people can get to their end game a lot quicker. Lets put it into perspective 3/4.

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@BwuhMG Yea they're really cooked, between using a a host that has been linked to cybercrime(ransomeware, Personal Data stealage) and tax evasion. This is a way bigger lawsuit then what TWOW had.

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@Neasper What retcons lol

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@Portergauge The stakes don't feel big if I don't have all the context, and if that information was presented in a previous expansion. As a new player, I won't know until a lore person like Pyromancer or Platinum WoW shows me the relevancy.

[Pandorum @SGPandorum]

@Portergauge Having a clean slate, would help me a lot, lot of these stories need context from former events, before I even played. "I think the thing for me is that WoW’s story is really… not that complicated?" While this is true, whats mostly important is the fact you need context.
