Loving it.

Thanks be to the... the arbiter? I guess? Is god of Azeroth? For the Jailer and his divine plan to create a few good stories before he revealed it was all one really bad one including a dream sequence where the planet got stabbed.

My favorite part about these "launch experience" videos is that the player base is (and always has been) the greatest threat in all of Azeroth.

[@yuntotoro]

We are the true scourge

[@Mediados]

The PC in Azeroth will literally wipe out the population of an entire town or genocide a whole species of animals if it means getting a piece of armor.

[@brandoncastellano1858]

@@yuntotoro “What is this playerbase meant to Scourge?” Why! The living, of course! With all the mass genocides the players are involved in… yeah. Imagine. If a necromancer just went behind a player after every kill quest and raised everything. That would be one insane army. For every one player, there’s anywhere from 4-30 creatures we’d fight.

[@Kugrox]

and after shadowlands it was confirmed that every player is canon to the universe. That means there are millions of "chosen ones" because every player is confirmed to be an offspring of Azeroth itself, from the days of the Voidlords. Thus, you are all absolutely canon and all exist at the same time.

[@brandoncastellano1858]

@@Kugrox if we are all canon at all times? Then how about the 12 million people that shot Farmer Kabala, or Snarlmange? What about the thousands of people that killed Dardosh in Alterac Valley and he’s mysteriously in Wintergrasp? How about the thousands of “ancient family jewelry, one of a kind” that’s passed to everyone that collects eight boar asses? HOW MANY TIMES HAS HEMET NESSINGWARY LOST HIS BOOK?

[@augustday9483]

I love the way you depict the WoW playerbase as an unstoppable force of chaos that smashes its way through the land like a locust swarm.

The boat lagging over the sea was too real. Our first boat sailed to the edge of the map and disappeared, making everyone fall into the sea. Really glad I went on the 2nd boat (that worked). We also had opposing druids and shamans WAITING for the boat just so they could Typhoon/Thunderstorm everyone off on the 1st boat. It was hilarious.
