Blizzard shared this image today of the WoD cinematic, which will get released on thursday. It looks amazing as usual!
The gaze of the black prince will return this week.


Beginning Thursday, August 14 at 10:00 a.m. PDT, through Tuesday, August 26 at 9:00 a.m. PDT, we’ll be applying the Gaze of the Black Prince buff which will increase the reputation gained with the Black Prince by 100%. It will also increase the chance of obtaining items from his foes needed as a part of the Legendary Cloak quest line including: the Secrets of the Empire, Sigil of Wisdom, Sigil of Power, or Titan Runestones.

Celestalon went onto the forums to tell us that currently the dungeons on the beta are overtuned.
I do want to note, though, that “having mechanics” isn’t a problem. That’s gameplay. It’s certainly possible to have too many mechanics, but that’s more of a clarity issue where complexity prevents an encounter from being readily understood or processed. But making content accessible shouldn’t and doesn’t mean removing interesting gameplay.
In a sense, difficulty is measured by how many mistakes we allow you to make and still succeed. The problem is that we are currently punishing mistakes too harshly.
