 Okay, so what's this video? Everybody keeps talking about this video. YouTube, Warcraft YouTube, Platinum Wow made some video that everyone was like, ask me, ask me, dude, my DMs are blowing up about this video. And this is a video from Platinum Wow on the Warcraft YouTube channel. What's new in WoW Classic Season of Discovery? Okay, so everybody keeps telling me to watch this video. The drums of war sound again. And the newest experience being added to Classic WoW is the Season of Discovery. A familiar yet different Classic experience, which focuses on exploration, open world activities, and wild, never before seen player progression with unique gameplay. Okay, I want to take a look at this. And wild, never before seen. So you got the metamorphosis. Wait, what's going on here with the little tiny shadow priests? What? Player progression with unique gameplay. You got the Paladin Avenger Shield. Let's go. And let's uncover all of the cool new features in this unique Classic experience. First, let's start with the Discovery aspect of the season. All around Azeroth, we see our favorite locations, monsters, quests, longer experiences, but with some unique twists, like hidden areas, never before seen quests and new monsters. Hidden amongst these little discoveries, you might find the Season of Discovery's most exciting feature, runes. Runes are items that you can engrave on your armor, which can work like a secondary enchantment. These runes can provide active or passive abilities from future expansions or entirely new ones that can change. Okay. So this is what people, okay, this is what people keep talking about. Look, these are the Paladin runes. We got Divine Storm up here, Horn of Lordaeron, Aegis, Ardent and Offender, augmented seals. And I don't know what augmented seals is. Howling Blast, this is, dude, immediately, I can tell you, immediately seeing this, I can tell you that it's, yes, it's bait, 100%. The Classic team has, if you follow these guys on Twitter, if you've been like paying attention to the stuff they've been talking about and all that, I think that they are just trying to throw out everything to just mess with people. Like whatever opportunity they can to mess with people, they're taking it. And one of the prime examples of, of why I say that is when you go right now and go look at the seasonal realm selection, they literally have two realms named. Is there a limit to how many and streamer realm? They, like just, these guys are just trolling us now. Like they're like, come on. Yeah. I like, I feel like it's, uh, it's one of those things where they're taking every opportunity to get people to talk about stuff. And they're doing a great job at it. I mean, they got me to watch a video cause a bunch of you guys are messaging me. But yeah. So I saw some of you guys say in chat that they've clarified since then, since this video came out, I guess that it's not, uh, uh, Agra and said on Twitter that it's, it's not a real thing. But I think that's funny. I like that they're doing that because it just gets people talking and it, it is funny. It's cool. You know, uh, they're having fun compared to the 2019 vanilla release. Dude, you know, I, and, and not to take away anything from that. Cause obviously that was an amazing time. And I had a lot of fun. A lot of you guys had fun. A lot of you guys are experiencing classic wow for the first time right now, or you were about to experience classic wow for the first time right now, but I feel so much like 2019 classic. Wow was like globo gym. And now it feels like average Joe's. And that makes sense. It's a lot more like it just, it's a lot more firing at the hip. It's a lot more, it's just a very, it's a much more like casual kind of fun environment than it was in 2019. Everybody was like just showing up. It's like the best way I can describe it is it felt like esports, but it was classic. Wow. In 2019 and it was kind of like it was way too serious. It was way too serious. And uh, now it's a lot more, uh, yeah, it's, it's a lot more. I don't know. It's just more fun. I mean, I love, I love 2019. Don't get me wrong. I love 2019 classic, but I hope the game, I hope the game matches up with this fun feeling that we have. Anyway, let's continue the video ones that can change the play style of your class. Some examples include Caledon's with Avenger shield summoning an army of void minions or totally role defining runes like warlock shamans and rogues now being able to tank or mage is being able to heal with time magic. Another class feature of the season of discovery is level banded content. When the servers are first released, all players will have a max level of 25 and then over time it will be raised to 40, then 50 and finally 60 strength and honor. The unique thing about each level bracket, there will be new never before seen end game content that players can participate in for level 25. The black fathom deep dungeon will be transformed into a 10 player raid with new bosses. I wish I wish they had done SFK for this. Each level bracket will have a new way to approach the most players, but interesting enough to provide a challenge with a difficulty akin to the original raids of classic. Wow. But when you're traveling to the new black fathom deep raid, be careful as the contested zone of Ashen Vale is now rife with conflict. I love another new feature is battle for Ashen Vale. This new feature transforms the zone into a world PVP. Look at this real quick. Look at this video. This is the new Ashen Vale map. Right. Look at this. You've got logs and you've got a house horde alliance. So these are the points of where the PUP areas are going to be in Ashen Vale. So these are the nodes. I really like that they're doing this because the story about war song like all everything in vanilla while it's like everything and a lot of things in a while have like a lore explanation. War song Gulch as a battleground doesn't just exist. It's the it's the area between Ashen Vale and the barons. So cool stuff into a world PVP hot spot where horde and alliance players will battle over territory and defeat enemy war masters and leaders in something similar to Alterac valve. Oh, this is our first look with this is the Lord reputation with the silver wing sentinels or the war song outriders and obtain new rewards like mountains that can only be rid in the Ashen Vale new homes. Oh, gee. These are the OG epic mounts the unarmored epic mounts that they they didn't put these in 2019 classic because I actually I remember I had a chance to talk to some of the devs and I said like is there anything you guys can can do to put the OG unarmored epic mounts in the game maybe like put them in the game for like the first phase is like a reward for people to get their epic mounts early and they didn't want to do that because they didn't want to like promote like unhealthy like you know people rushing to get an epic mountain phase one or whatever that was like kind of the the the plan which it was a real a real bummer because I'm like man I love the old unarmored epic mounts and I think it's cool to give people an opportunity to actually use them so I'm glad that they didn't waste those models and they're putting them back in the game for Ashen Vale and Ashen Vale new helms and weapons. This is just a web summary of the content being introduced in the season of the discovery and there will be so much more to explore within the future phases of these seasonal servers altogether this experience is about Azeroth being the main character it's about exploring undiscovered lands creating unique builds for your character battling the enemy faction in world PvP events and delving into new raids with your guildmates. Now is the perfect time to return to the world of Azeroth and explore the familiar yet different lands in the season of discovery. I cannot wait dude. I cannot wait man. That's a great video. I do. I'm so dude. I'm just I'm so happy that that Blizzard has been working with some of these guys like like Platinum Wow and you know hurricane has been doing a bunch of their cinematic stuff for classic and it's just it's so great to see man. I'm so unbelievably happy and excited about season of discovery and I really hope it lands man based classic dev team. I hope dude once it dropping dude it's dropping tomorrow. It's dropping November 30th. So it's dropping today. It's dropping in 12 hours from when we're watching this. Okay. Them drawing inspiration from what the 2019 classic beta was and capping it at 25. There's some people like oh well it's only to level 25. Is there really that much content? You know what? Only to level 25. They're not might be there might not be that much content in the game but the amount of player driven content that was made in the 2019 classic beta when the cap was 30 was incredible. The PvP events the world felt bigger than ever because there was zones and there was all kinds of places everywhere that we could not go to. There were places in the world that it was basically impossible to get to because everything is so much higher level than you that you're just going to get destroyed instantly. Like it's actually amazing. It's such a fun feeling even going to do different dungeons like we did with five level 30s. We did Scarlet Monastery Armory and Cathedral. That was insane. I remember doing that with Asmin was like one of the dude it was me Asmin stay safe but that was incredible dude and that was a legitimate that was a legitimate world first. We had zeroed the hunter and we had one other guy that was zeroed the hunter and there was one other guy and I can't remember who the other was at Loy. So zeroed was a hunter from from raid three for my privacy revealed raid three but yeah so that was that was like a legitimate world first. I mean it had to be because who would have been insane enough to ever do SM Armory and SM Cathedral with only level 30s like that probably was like we're like wait this is actually a real so so it's cool. It's cool that we're going to have the opportunity to do that again with a level 25 cap and I think part of the reason I think it maybe it was just one bonus reason as to why they chose level 25 instead of 30 30 40 50 60. I think it's because 30 was done with a beta maybe I don't know 40 was also done with a beta so again who knows but I think it's going to be fun to see doing no more gone at level 25 who knows we might dude we might we might try Armory or Cathedral again at level 25 and see if we can do it probably not it's probably going to be impossible but I think setting our goals as to like let's see now that they've added all this stuff into the game. Let's see if we can clear with five less levels. Let's see if we can clear as much content as we did at level 30. I think it's going to be cool. I think it's going to be very fun. I think it's going to be incredibly fun. I think it's going to be cool to see. I know they're going to be scaling up the difficulty of the content making the mobs to more damage and have more health and all that stuff. So it's just going to be super cool to see. I can't wait season of Discovery is going to be incredible. They're making a bunch of changes to rat Paladins. They're making a bunch of changes to prop Paladins basically season of Discovery is like it's one thing short of it being my ultimate dream scenario of what world of Warcraft could possibly be and that's seal twisting. If we have when seal twisting exists but seal twisting specifically between seal of seal of the martyr or seal of blood and seal of command. If they add that in that is my own part that is my personal like oh my gosh this is going to be incredible. I cannot wait dude. Yeah I cannot wait between how fun prop Paladins are going to be how how fun rat Paladins are going to be. And even even the the very very tiny issues that Holy Paladins actually have to deal with they they're getting some really strong buffs to so on a personal front. I'm excited. I love this. It's going to be great. We're getting the band back together. Crusades coming out to season of Discovery. It's it's going to be good stuff.
