Peridiam 08/03/18 1:39:29 PM #2 | Pretty sure production just fucked up on the live feeds. Either that or suddenly logic has left the building. Also the picture of the cloud was sideways. It wasn't even aligned correctly, which makes it seem even more like a mistake. --- |
Topic | Warcraft's Warbringers:Jaina video is fantastic (for a Warcraft fan, at least) |
Peridiam 07/31/18 4:07:26 PM #12 | Nanis23 posted... So regarding playing World of Warcraft just for the lore... From one casual to another: 1. The lore is pretty good, but the storytelling is pretty weak. Many big bads are killed by NPC's "with the assistance of adventures". The final boss of the latest expansion is basically one-upped by a prominent NPC, though we do everything to subdue the villain. 2. It's probably at its best right now. They introduced level-scaling so any zone you're in can be fully completed instead of out-leveling everything at a rapid pace and constantly being on the move. 3. WoW's story structure is all over the place. I'm not even sure how to describe it other than 'disjointed'. Each expansion adds more story, but the following expansion renders the previous one moot. You'd do best to watch a YouTube video outlining the story up to the latest expansion and then going from there. Each zone generally has a self-contained story that you see through from start to finish. Sometimes they carry to the next zone. To break it all down: Level 1-60: [Expansion 3 story] Level 60-80: [Expansion 1 & 2 story] Level 80-90: [Expansion 3 & 4 story] Level 90-100: [Expansion 5 story] Level 100-110: [Expansion 6 story] Level 110-120: [Expansion 7 story] Kinda confusing. The problem is that you won't see the end of any of the expansions story due to leveling. For example, you'll get to level 90 and move on to expansion 5 (which starts at 90) without ever finishing expansion 4. To finish expansion 4's story you'd need to do a raid which nobody is going to do at that level (I've gone back and completed old raids for the story to see what happened, but only at max-level when the content is ezpz). So really, you're going to have a story all over the place until you hit level 110, whereupon you'll catch up with the rest of the pack and begin to play the modern story as it's currently unfolding today. The good news is that if you buy the latest expansion (#7) you get a free level 110 character to jump right into the action. The downside is that you'll have no idea how to play your class out of the gate and if you're a total newbie, it might be really confusing from all angles. I'm not sure how long it'll take to get through the latest story -- it releases in 2 weeks (Aug 14). I think it's around 15 hours to go from 110-120? This is probably too much information but whatever, can't hurt to know what you're getting into. --- |
Topic | Warcraft's Warbringers:Jaina video is fantastic (for a Warcraft fan, at least) |
Peridiam 07/31/18 1:15:33 PM #8 | I've listened to the video so many times now. It reminds me of when Pippin (Billy Boyd) sings to Denethor in Return of the King. Really great stuff. I decided to do the intro to Kul Tiras in WoW last night - which I'm assuming takes place after the video when Jaina returns. The Warbringers song is clearly referenced ("Daughter of the sea") and a verse is sung in the game at one point. --- |

Peridiam 07/30/18 12:32:07 PM #12 | JackMan posted... I kinda hope, two years from now, Sea of Thieves is the same way. Ugh, tell me about it. What an awful gameplay loop. They're releasing their second big content update tomorrow at least. It's adding AI ships. --- |
