Subject: 1.8 Silithus Preview! |
| |
Since the beginning of recorded history, Azeroth has seen the most terrible conflicts imaginable. The War of the Ancients and the Sundering of the World. The coming of the Tides of Darkness. The return of the Burning Legion, the Scourge of Lordaeron and the rise of the Lich King. Yet all this time, deep beneath the shifting sands of Silithus, an unspeakable horror has been lying in wait, ever patient, and ever enduring...
To learn more about the changes coming to Silithus, take a moment to read the Introduction to Silithus...
http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/underdev/1.8/silithus-intro.html
...and check out the new Silithus map.

EDIT: The pages are showing fine for me, but I'll check into it for those of you seeing an error.[ post edited by Caydiem ]

Q u o t e:
Who wrote the story?
I did.
EDIT: I would think the fact that the protagonist is a Tauren Druid would have given it away. :P[ post edited by Caydiem ]

Q u o t e:
Can Warlocks have a Caydiem story where we are the main character someday?
Oh, I imagine Warlocks will get their time.
The previous story I did featured a Priest, Paladin, and Hunter. I'm spreading the love. ;)
(Also, this one was Horde-based, since there were some grumblings about an apparent Alliance bias in the story subjects.)

Q u o t e:
Tauren?, trying to "blend in" with the Hammer cultists? I've been all over Silithus, and I have never seen a tauren cultist.
Also what's up with that crazy mace that the tauren is wielding on the map page? And the Hyena mount?
So many questions, and too long to wait to find out the answers.
I believe Twilight's Hammer Torturers, etc. from Blackrock Depths can be Tauren.. ;)

Q u o t e:
You wrote the story from the perspective of a Tauren Druid....because Horde were complaining about Alliance bias? YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!
EVERYONE knows the CMs, GMS, and Developers ALL play Horde almost exclusively. EVERY preview released by blizzard shows a bunch of taurens and orcs standing around some dead something.
Even your new 20 man ZG instance is so blatantly geared toward horde as to almost be funny. You play a Tauren, fine, but don't act like the reason this was written as a tauren was because of a perceived Alliance bias. The horde bias is not perceived, it is obvious.
No.
I wrote the story from the perspective of a Tauren Druid because the other stories I personally have written -- such as the Arathi Basin one -- have generally been weighted in the favor of Alliance.
The Community Team is more or less evenly balanced between Alliance and Horde.
So is the Development Team.
"Everyone" might want to check their facts, because it simply isn't true. :)
