This could be so much more than just a tranquil forest. What i want from the Emerald Dream is to expend its full potential - being a realm of dreams. The zones themselves are beautifully designed and what i would expect from an afterlife (Heaven= Bastion, Hell= the Maw). Only the overall story is shitty, featuring Sylvanas, the Jailer, Tyrande, Thrall, Baine, Jaina, Anduin and Bolvar. Yeah the zone looked absolutely amazing and unique with the waterfall wall, the unique terrain and all that, but it was still somewhat of a disappointment where everyone expected more, like it being a huge naga city and not just the ruins of Zin Ashari with some water terrain. Like they could have really done a lot more. I have too expected a much greener tint and more visual effects to it and I mean it's supposed to be a dream of Azeroth, so they could've made it look weird, just like how the Emerald Nightmare looks like with Moonglade, Thunder Bluff and Ungoro Crater. At first I thought this was just gonna be a zone directly west of the Ohnaran Plains. What’s everyone else’s take?Yeah, while I have no doubts that it will be a very pretty zone, it does just look like another zone that could just be on the Dragon Isles. I had the impression that everything in the dream would be either built out of pure stone (like the statues sticking out of the ground) or was designed and built within the space itself (Think Lothlorien) not some tower like the one we have. Especially with the structures that have been built. The Emerald Dream in this zone looks very much like the Azeroth version of a location before going into the dream version. You don’t feel like you’re exactly on Azeroth anymore. Where is the green haze? Every time we go into the dream for a quest there is a green vignette or a green haze in the zone. There was something off about it and I’ve only just put my finger on it though. What’s everyone’s thoughts on the first look of the Emerald Dream Zone?įor me personally I think it has a lot of the main features I would like and expected for the Emerald Dream. You just don't possess the capacity for such an imagination. It could feature an actually scary Nightmare have Thros be a depressive zone where you battle your regrets and remorse have a magical zone where the laws of physics don't apply make you be whatever you dream of being take you on an adventure and even feature the demonic Sayaad. So is that what you want here? That Blizzard again do a massive retcon to make the Emerald Dream into just a "hey, you're almost getting to sleep" realm and make a completely new Emerald Dream that in nothing resembles everything we've seen and known about the Dream?Yes. And every time, described as lush green forests.īut even so, this goes back to my other point: the new Shadowlands is a massive retcon, because it downgraded the 'original Shadowlands' into being just an "in-between" between the mortal realm and the "new" Shadowlands. We have seen the Emerald Dream, and we have been there in dungeons, in raids, and even as an Order Hall feature in Legion. And then it doesn't come close to how defined in the lore the Emerald Dream is.
