@Boxkar24 8 ай бұрын

In my opinion, large part of that is the game trying to cover too many topics in each given expansion. Aside from Alexstraza, we jumped around from topic to topic, character to character like sex worker on acid. And while this expac wasn't as unfocused as some others, it really didn't settle on what I thought was the main story. To this day I have no idea how Razageth was able to recruit the primalists (not to mention how was she able to get gnomes and dwarves to join considering their entire existence is owed to the titans). Iridikron, while being cautious of the player characters which is a nice touch that someone recognizes we've murdered our ways through the galaxy, just did more mysterious bad guy with deep voice. Farakk seems fun but is bare bones, how did he find the ritual to become primal? What was the ritual? Drives me bananas.

@retrohanska4441 8 ай бұрын

Or at the very least they could try to come up with better explanation than "sry, I can't stop them and despite them clearly being sentient they can't be reasoned with." Why not have some small essence of nightmare slip in for example? We know that a bit of void remained in Emerald Dream despite us clearing it in Legion, show that it's still alive and might have someone new controlling it from the shadows, but also since we defeat it now before it gains any root, it's not gonna be immediate problem, just future dungeon or scenario or however they want to use that. Or maybe justify it with "taint of Ardenweld" or something like that, deepening the lore in the process. Imo the idea isn't bad but not doing anything clever with it is just a missed opportunity.

for me the expansion ended with the defeat of Razagath she was truly bad ass the fight and everything the whole raid definitely a worth end of an expansion kind of Boss much like Azshara was for BFA. That being said i love to follow the lore of WoW and definitely Nobbel's channel is the best place for me to experience it while no longer playing WoW itself. This primal fire dragon dude is just too cute to take seriously :D still i look forward to more of this expansions story and in to the next expansion who knows it might bring me back for its first raid tear again but it really needs to get back on Legion lvl of full story as whole in an expansion to keep me playing it past the first raid and hopefully never be as bad as Shadow lands was that didn't manage to keep my attention even for the first raid story to unfold let alone more

I mean, Nobbel - as much as we all want to forget a flop the BfA was - wasn't Smolderon kidnapped by Dark Iron Dwarves / Twilight Hammer D.I. Dwarves, during Heritage Armor quest? Yes, Fire and Air are hostile, but how did Druids of the Flame obtained Shards of Ragnaros? Where Smolderon was held at? How did he got to Emerald Dream, if it's a seperate realm like - not a elemental realm? Can you cook up a head canon?

@Nobbel87 8 ай бұрын

Not sure where the smolderon kidnapped came from, afaik SMolderon was missing and they were trying to revive Ragnaros. "All in due time' is what we got out of justice grimstone. Headcanon; Knowing that there's a slim chance of his defeat, Ragnaros the Firelord passed on some embers of his essence to his druids of the flame. One day they could use this power to bring him back, as we saw during the DI scenario, or they could use it for their own means, empower themselves. Fast forward to Dragonflight and Fyrak got himself a sexy axe that allows him to open rifts through reality into other planes. He lit uses it in the end fight to create a rift from the dream into the firelands so our boy Fyrakk, primal incarnate of fire, visted Smolderon before the 10.2 took place. WHATUP SMOLDERON, old buddy old pall, you wonna come join me into burning down the dream/azeroth? LETS GOOOOOO. Ow whats that? I get to eat you now?! NOM NOM NOM. The one thing I will say is hard to argue again; Why the heck would smolderon ever bet against us.

Bruh. Fyrakk not even getting any last words is so lame. They did him the dirtiest out of all expansion end bosses. There's literally nothing that makes him memorable or even an interesting character. Imagine making a villain that every other character in the story rightfully calls a dumbass and then trying to make him out to be a serious threat. It wasn't even like he was the strongest brute strength-wise, Iridikron bodied him without effort in the book. And then they get Matt Mercer, one of the most skilled voice actors in the industry world-wide. What a waste Fyrakk was in every single aspect.

Does that mean there's no explanation why all the Azeroth's finest just chill out instead of coming into the raid to aid their champions? Just showing up because the champions obviously can't defeat the big bad by themselves, what message would that send...Anyway I was wondering how they're gonna mix the aesthetics so it isn't all fire, should've expected some more stupidity like "the dreams guardians rather gonna fight you than the fire burning everything around". The raid seemed pretty and reasonable, alas far from fresh, anything-wise. Don't really care about the end aspect stuff, just do whatever retconning/setup you need Blizz, make a clean slate so hopefully there will be less need for contrived bs in the future.

@OmegaShanic 8 ай бұрын

Fyrakk's target was not the Dream. Fyrakk's target was Amidrassil's heart. That didn't exist until the seed was planted, which happened at the start of Dragonflight after the events of BFA and Shadowlands. Fyrakk wanted to imbue the heart with flame so that when it bloomed into the world, it would essentially bloom fire into the world. And he wanted to do that because he's just a guy who wants to see the world burn, but only barely had the power to do so. Deathwing was not interested in destroying the Dream - he was interested in destroying Azeroth. His goal was to cause the Hour of Twilight by causing enough pandemonium over the world that doomsday cults would bring about the world's end, along with birthing a Draconic monster that none could stand against. We ultimately overcome the doomsday cults and Ultraxion, and then chase him to his death to stop his rampage.
