WoW is trending on Twitter again, and it’s not about what a mess WoD is. Blizzard during Gamescon 2015, announced the next expansion (titled “Legion”).
Gul’dan is going to be playing a roll in this. Illidan has been resurrected, and Gul’dan’s heading to the Tomb of Sargarus (the one seen in Warcraft 3 during the Night Elf campaign). In other words, history might be repeating itself. Though in Warcraft 3, Gul’dan dies a painful, slow death due to trying to get Sargarus’ power for his own.
This is what is known from the announcement;
-We’re taking the fight to the Burning Legion.. AGAIN! Because The Burning Crusade was “merely a setback”! *rolls eyes*
-Level to 110 (would make late game Pandaria dungeons and early game WoD dungeons soloable).
-Demon Hunter Hero Class
-Artifact Weapons
-Order Hall (possibly ‘Garrison 2.0’)
-PvP Honor System
-New zone: ‘The Broken Isles’
-Level 100 Character Boost (THIS will be useful)
First off, remember NONE of these are set in stone when the release hits (likely late 2016 to early 2017). Do not give into hype. Let the release of WoD remind us what hype does. It disappoints us. It’s makes us raged, and depressed.. and not trust another game company feeling they’ll do the same damn thing.
So yeah, they’re definitely done with WoD. No Patch 6.3. No hope. They’re just… done. I can’t wait to see all of those empty chairs at BlizzCon. Lore would be all “WELCOME TO BLIZZCON!!!” on the stage, and all you’ll hear is the sound of crickets.
I would so laugh my head off. Not to mention fistpump at all the players tired of the bullshit, double-talk, and lies. It would be the greatest BlizzCon ever. And then Blizzard would close their doors and I’ll never hear about their cash cow company ever again!
Wishful thinking, I know. There would be a few “hardcore” fans there, but I would imagine not as much as there was during 2013’s BlizzCon.

Zarhym was seen in Twitter when the announcement was made, claiming how they “don’t like to cut content”. I said to him “Save us the BS. We’ve heard it with WoD back in 2013.”
He responded a day later, saying “Yes, we had to make tough decisions. We still hate shelving/cutting features we’ve announced.”
“had to make tough decisions”, yet never offering a clear answer of why the promised capital cities were cut. Just powdered bullshit.
