What the elf expansion of our dreams wou...

Blizzard Watch
About this episode

This week we're having a throwback episode from the Archives. Over a hundred episodes ago, Matt and Joe discussed what they would like to see from an elf-centric expansion, which is more or less coming to fruition with Midnight. They begin by talking about the lore behind elves in general, their historical origins as an offshoot of the Trolls, through the Night Elf schism with the High Elves, then Blood Elves, and then everything that transpired from their various splinter factions. Their vision of a elf-centric expansion definitely includes a bit more unity for those factions -- but they're not sold on the idea of a happily ever after. Not for everyone, at least.


This dive into the Archives is both priming and prediction for Midnight.
