Who are the mysterious First Ones?
What is the Jailer truly trying to accomplish?
Where will the story go next?
It all leads to an even bigger mystery among the game’s community: What’s next after Shadowlands?
When asked in a recent interview with GameSpot, WoW production director Pat Dawson wouldn’t say.
No future expansion announcements have been made.
That leaves a giant question mark hanging over patch 9.2 and the end of the Shadowlands story.
“They don’t know what’s going to happen.
It’s kind of a neat moment.
For future stuff, we’re always working on things.
“People aren’t sure what they’re going to be experiencing.
There’s some adventure and exploration ahead for the end of this raid.”
It’s a story that, by and large, has not been particularly well-received by many fans.
Sylvanas and her storyline are perhaps viewed even less favorably.
Smaller details, however, get more fleshed out as time goes on.
“I believe people should be satisfied,” Hamilton said in regards to Sylvanas' story.
“There will always be people who are not.
It’s a fine line to walk and we do our best.
Blizzard is also more engaged with the community in regards to the game’s future than ever before.
Patch 9.2 arrives February 22, with the Sepulcher of the First Ones raid unlocking March 1. you might read the full9.2 patch notes here.
