Like many, we voces are now staring at the new loading screen for World of Warcraft as The Shattering—the sundering of the land under Deathwing’s wrath as he tears Azeroth a new one–runs its course over the severs. The opening cinematic plays with a thunderous roar and our favorite black dragon grumbles and complains morbidly in a voice that is pure Metal.

So, what can we say, epic iron-jawed dragon is epic. We’ll be around shortly for more news on how The Shattering has affected the land; however, we suspect at first there will be a great deal of server instability as players pour through the newly opened gates in order to run around to look at what catastrophe hath wrought.

Update: As everyone can see looking

WoWScrnShot_112210_165811 These are the last words heard from courageous in-game reporter Kyt Dotson yesterday as elementals invaded Orgrimmar and Thunder Bluff. The prelude to the horrible devastation now rampaging across the land. The earth heaves, the seas boil, and other sundry misery casts down upon the landscape during this time of troubles.

To see the last report before the lands upheaval tore even the servers asunder go to the Green Dragon Inn for the update.

WoWScrnShot_111410_194233With a cult infiltrating the streets of Orgrimmar the establishment has gotten somewhat antsy and implemented harsh measures. Long queues have appeared in front of the city as commoners and warriors-alike are searched by our heroes to make sure they’re not carrying—papers.

Intrepid in-game reporter Kyt Dotson goes forth and gives a description of the newest changes to the Orgrimmar streets over at the Green Dragon Inn.

As the days count down and terrors close in on all sides, what will become of Azeroth if we give up our liberty for temporary security?

2010-11-08-WoWScrnShot_110810_154723 It’s that time of the week again: Friday. And I’m going to roll up all of the various posts that have been provided by our wonderful authors on other blogs. In this case, that’s going to be our new favorite video game blog, The Green Dragon Inn.

This week, the prologue to Cataclysm continues and Azeroth in-the-trenches reporter Kyt Dotson has taken to the streets of Azeroth with a broom and dustpan in order to sweep up some tiny, tiny fire elementals that seem to have gotten a little bit out of hand. Those little bastards do seem fairly agitated, don’t they?

At the same time, a very large Twilight’s Hammer cultist appeared on a dragon outside of the city and tried

spearmintlisteningscree It’s been a rather dry week for video game news, but we here at Vox Ex Machina would like to tell our users about an excellent little podcast and blog: The Green Dragon Inn.

A recently published article over there (written by Kyt Dotson) outlines the extent of a cult infiltrating the major cities of Azeroth and the sinister force behind the cultists. Also, as Cataclysm approaches, random elemental manifestations are invading.

Green Dragon Inn also has a podcast, their most recent #17 "Forsaken World" just published with discussions about that MMO’s closed beta.

worldofwarcraftlogo-thumb.gifRecently, a few rumours broke out about the next planned expansion to Blizzard’s crushingly popular MMORPG, World of Warcraft. These whispers in the dark centered around Cataclysm, the next expansion to WoW after Lich King.

It’s said that the great dragon Deathwing will join forces with the immortal and exiled elf-queen Azshara to summon a great power that will shatter the world.

It’s said that Warchief Thrall will pass the Doomhammer to the son of Grom Hellscream, and open war will come upon the Horde and the Alliance.

It’s said that Humans and Undead will finally get Hunters, I mean, damn, what took so long?

Oh, and something about new races and a complete rebuild of Azeroth.

Right now, MMO Champion has a decent rundown of the expected, or at least, more believable changes and details leaked out …
