    New character models. That orc and dwarf looked fucking amazing.

    Well that was definitely gorehowl in silhouette there at the end.
    Didn't the wolf rider at the start carry it as well?

    "Boost to 90 and play immediately"

    Also: DID I JUST SEE GUILD HALLS?!?!??!????

    New models, though they did only show Dwarf and Orc which people were already speculating to be the first two models while the others got slowly rolled out.

    I have a podcast about Digimon called the Digital Moncast, on Audio Entropy.

    female spacegoat on that mountain looked a bit different (better) new model for BC races too?
    male version didn't look to different maybe just not done yet?

    I wonder what the restrictions on boosting to 90 will be, considering that they were just touting RAF being moved to 85.

    I already have a 90 of every class, so it doesn't effect me that much, but would still be interesting to know.

    Also, and this is related to nothing at all, but I really hope they remove per-character achievements entirely and make it all account based.

    They were never going to add a new race given the model revamp. New class seems to be an every other thing, and they still need to fix monks so probably not terribly trigger happy with another one.

    Wish i wasn't at work so i could see this stuff. will it be archived with the virtual ticket?

    If anyone here was interested in the SC2, it starts right after the opening ceremony on

    Come join us in the SC2 thread, we're a nice bunch.

    it will presumably be available all over the place before long

    the draenei/blood elf models are a lot better than the vanilla ones, so it would make sense that the revamp might not change them as much. Curious to see what they plan to do with trolls.

    every blizzcon ticket should come with two complimentary tomatos, to throw at the presenters when they start talking too much

    Yes, @knight_


    I'm curious if we will see either a professions revamp or a new profession(?) since no new class/race.

    The description refers to Grom as Grommash, so I guess the thing about him having to be renamed for legal reasons was true.

    They really don't need a new profession. If they ever do housing, maybe woodworking or something like that, but as it stands now, so much of any profession is just their bonuses, not the actual making of things. They need a massive overhaul of professions before they even bother making a new one.

    Eh, even compared to Cata models the TBC models are rouuuugh. The Panda models are on a whole other level from all the previous models, and why I play a panda.

    Maybe female trolls will finally be able to blink. That'd be weird.

  • NaphtaliNaphtali Hazy + Flow SeaRegistered User regular
    as somebody who quit during pandas there isn't a whole lot announced this far that makes me at all interested in playing again. I'll withhold judgement until after the 12:30 panel and more details (hopefully) though.

    That's a weird way to say it. Will we be able to instantly make one lvl90 character or will it work similar to recruit a friend?

    @lorahalo I would but here is how it would work:

    Maybe the panel will get me more hyped up about the actual content of this xpack. It bums me out, I remember with the MoP reveal so many people were pissed off but I thought it was awesome; I guess I'm on the other side now.

    At this point I'm more interested in mechanics changes like the squish and any systems revamps they have in store than the actual xpack lore content. :(

    Man, that Dwarf and Orc look a /lot/ better. If they can do that level of improvement to all the races I might be paying for some race changes for my alts. Wonder if they'll change up the animations to be more awesome like the Panda ones are.

    Watch it anyway! You'll get there. I love the game, but I started like that as well. I didn't even own the game when I started watching it.

    I'll hold out hope until the end of the WoW: What's Next panel in 30 minutes or so, but man, no new race or class really takes a chunk out of my excitement for the expansion. I appreciate the idea of the new models and they're long overdue, but they're just not a replacement for a new race/class. I'm sure the expansion will still sell like Blizzcakes, but wow. Very surprising.

    While no new race/class because of model revamp is reasonable, I bet it will go over as well as Cata with the new old world--sure, it was needed, but most wondered where the "new" stuff was

    i think hoping for a new class was crazy because we just got one, and there was like no chance of a new race as soon as news got out that they were redoing all the existing races

    only got yourself to blame y'all!!!

    Also, visually, I'm bummed that Draenor won't be as interesting as Outland, everything in that video looks very 'normal world' ish and could just as easily be on Azeroth as another planet.

    I'm sensing another retcon to the Draenei - they weren't peace-loving innocents. I'm willing to bet they're going to be all up IN this conflict.
