Here be all my lovely characters | Moon Guard/WrA player and long-time RPer | LFR Superstar | I take screenshots of my blorbos | I don't know what I am in terms of gender
Ugh, you got me all hyped that they'd dropped a new beta patch with an updated login screen and then I remembered the *WORLDSOUL SAGA* is consistently boring with the login screen

I guess it kind of makes sense, most people log in with the launcher and see it for 0.5sec anyway... but... ugh.

They'll probably shift from VOID to a scene when the expansion launches like TWW did, but that scene will be 2D. Maybe it'll be something like this one. I dunno.

It seems like they're trying to be consistent with their login screens across the "Worldsoul Saga". Of course, that just means we trace the issue not to Midnight but to The War Within's login screen.

(cont. later, this is a lot of screenshots, alt text and writing)

Logo shows. Crowd roars. Metzen comes back on stage. "Oh hell yeah!" Crowd cheering. "Right back to the start. Kinda. Guys, I hope you enjoyed that announcement, I imagine you have a lot of questions, we have a lot of answers. Don't worry, it all makes sense." Crowd applauds. Panel at 12:30.

"Our will is iron. Our bond, unbreakable. Who... will stand against us?" rumbles Grom Hellscream himself, brown-skinned and standing with six other orc figures silhouetted by a blazing sun as he raises Gorehowl aloft.

NEW WORLD: DRAENOR (Crowd cheers)

NEW CHARACTER MODELS (Crowd explodes)

LEVEL CAP RAISED TO 100 (Crowd is too busy exploding to notice)

A figure who could only be Velen stands overlooking a vast host of orcs. What could only be the temple of Karabor - the true temple, not the Black Temple of Outland - is pelted with massive fireballs by cannons on the backs of Gronn.

Crowd roars. The announcement trailer begins. A sunset over a forest. An orc blows a low note from a horn. Snow with fire in the background. A fire in a dark jungle with orcs dancing madly about it.

Metzen does his Metzen thing. After a long, leading preamble going over Siege and hinting at a "pantheon" of old villains coming back, nobody is sure what to expect. Finally he announces the expansion title: "WARLORDS OF DRAENOR!"

The year is 2013. Blizzcon is here. Mists of Pandaria is winding down now. You've played Siege, you're all dolled up in tier whatever (people stopped counting) and after all the other Blizzard games get their turn, out comes the main event: WoW, with Metzen himself on stage.

One tree pun would have been enough, but every single line? The pun factory malfunctioned that day...

I had some inkling about the racism but queerphobic too? disappointing

Being expected to know the fights and coordinate with another tank is like 80% of why I just queue healer and make the bars go up

It really is a tossup when I click on a male guard between blood-elfy and "Oblivion_Elf_Male.ogg"
November 15, 2025 at 1:26 AM
why are you finding this stuff out literally at the exact time I'm finally sat down to look at beta, get out of my walls
November 15, 2025 at 1:15 AM
also might addtionally be something about a pun on tail -> tale, Wyveryn's Tale, like a story a wyvern has.
