Ok, i’ve been doing some research, and apparently, 35 years in the WoW universe has passed, in between this most recent ex-pack (WOD), and when Guldan offered the Warlord Garrosh Hellscream the blood of what looks to me like the Pit Commander at the exit from the dark portal. But I am not sure of that fact. So that means, that somehow,  both the Alliance, and the Horde were able to travel back in time 35 years, give or take about 5 years. Actually, probably take because that if they showed up right exactly after that, the storyline would most likely not have ended up the way it did. Also, the Horde and the Alliance had made a treaty explicitly stating that they were not going to fight each other while they are trying to solve the crisis in Draenor. But one of the sides, I do not know which one, declared that treaty void, or just they both stopped caring. Neither side can agree. But maybe that is just some lazy game designers wanting to get another PvP zone. Oh, also, rumor has it that they are going to turn Gilneas into the next PvP zone. But that’s a whole other topic. That’s all I have for today, but I will try to make these longer soon, I just don’t have much time in the day today, I might not post tomorrow but that will only happen if I am making a big thing to come out on Sunday, thanks for reading, See you later.

The first thing that comes to mind when I think about WOD is the new additions of the garrisons, and the added feelings there of, the second thing that comes to mind is the inability to fly, unless you work your way through the “Draenor Pathfinder” achievement, which in my perspective, is an annoying thing. But let’s start with the first one, garrisons. Ok, I have a whole lot to cover here, so here we go. First of all, The water missions. Some people love them, some people think that they are just a bad parody of the garrison missions. Speaking of the garrison missions, some people want to be able to have more garrison followers, some people like narrowing down their followers, I like parts of both, I like how you don’t have to use up so many of your weapon and armor upgrades on like 50 followers, but I do not like having to pick and choose who I let on my team, In my book, they are all awesome. I like having people call me commander, and my subordinates who ask me to do things because that “I am the only one that can.” quests instead of Mrs. Randomhuman telling me to go round up her chickens, and she will give me a useless not-even-upgrade. I like being respected. But the not being able to fly thingie is not a good thing in my opinion. If I can’t fly, then all of my mounts are ground bound, and I really like flying mounts. However, I see why they did it, they did it because that people were using flying to cheat, and skip all of the parts on land and just fly in. However I would rather they just did what they did in MoP (Mists of Pandaria) and not let you fly in specific zones and only let you fly when you have reached max level in that “Get to the new max level.” zone.  If WOD did that, I would be happy, but they didn’t they weren’t even planning on entering in flying at all because in a lore sense; “Back then, everyone didn’t have their own flying mounts” but even lore wise that does not stand true, because that we come from the future! We should have those! But maybe it’s just to “Not effect the timeline more than CHANGING THE OUTCOME OF THAT ENTIRE WAR does.” And even that is sketchy. They eventually added it in a patch as another prize for completing the “Draenor Pathfinder” achievement. All though I do not like not being able to fly, I do like the bosses that are scattered around Draenor. That gives something you can do as a group, and as just yourself trying to get a hit in. I also like the choices that the garrison gives you for the places you can make in your garrison, if your a skinner and a leatherworker? you can get a skinning station, a leather working station, and a beast trapping place. You can customize given if you mine or herb. If you Leatherwork, or are a Scribe. It does not matter, you can customize your garrison to be you. I like the farm in MoP, but I love how they builded on it with the addition of garrisons. Also Ashran, a place where everyone can go to fight the the opposing faction, adding on to the PvP scenario,so that you have Ashran and random battlegrounds. You have Ashran, and that is so useful for people who want to try out PvP, and PvP experts. Ashran appeals to everyone. Even non-PvPers with it also being a transport hub, for both sides. And also being able to PvP as a Horde if you’re an Alliance player, or to PvP as Alliance if you are a Horde player. It’s really interesting, and it’s in my opinion a good mechanic. That’s all I have on Wow for now, i’ll go into the lore of the WOD later, I just wanted to get my opinions out there, see you later.

Hiya, this is my first post, but I hope to be able to post a lot, this blog will go into the mechanics of WoW, and the lore of each ex-pack. I hope you like it!
