We wanted to know which enemies you wish to see in the next WoW expansion. The results are clear!
A few days ago, we asked you which threat you would like to see next in World of Warcraft. After all, the Age of the Legion is coming to an end, and slowly but surely, thoughts must turn to what comes “after”.
In the top position, two answers are competing. As of now (June 26, 3:00 PM), there is no clear winner – but two strong favorites.
Old Gods compete with Old Conflict for 1st place
With 23%, a large portion of the voting players wish for the Old Gods as a new threat. This seems to be the most obvious step, as C’thun and others have not had much to say for a while. However, there were concrete hints in the Emerald Nightmare and also in the Night Fortress that the Old Gods will soon put their plan into action – the Black Empire will rise again!
But sometimes less can be more. This becomes particularly clear when looking at the votes for the answer Conflict between Horde and Alliance. Almost 23% do not wish for a new, major adversary at all, but rather want to see another conflict between Horde and Alliance. This is not surprising, as the war between the two factions was even the hook for the cinematic in Classic. Since then, alliances have been made repeatedly – and the war has been suppressed, except for Garrosh.
Far behind these two favorites is the new Lich King Bolvar Fordragon (17%), as many players associate a great time with Wrath of the Lich King and would like to regain that feeling.
No one likes Illidan, Wrathion, and the Void Lords
Interestingly, many players wished for the Old Gods (23%), but only 8% wished for their great leaders, the Void Lords. Clearly, the servants are much more interesting than the powerful overlords, who are still waiting in the cosmos to devour all existence.
The clear losers of the voting were Wrathion and Illidan. With only 2% of the votes each, hardly anyone would want them as a new, major threat. The two misunderstood anti-heroes simply do not fit your opinion as villains – tough luck, Illi and Furi!
WoW will produce more evergreen content – what that means, we reveal here.
