Anyway, to cap off this afternoons lore tweets, we’re seeing an unprecedented level of lore recontextualisation & changes. Will it be worth it? Can’t answer that yes. Will we, the messenger, be shot? Almost certainly! I do wish they could have worked around the old lore...

Titan PoV is just an excuse anyway. If you were writing with that kind of thing in mind, you'd write it very differently than a series of retcons. More like unanswered questions and visible gaps in knowledge.

Agreed!

it seems pretty obvious that people's reaction to BFA has Blizzard smashing emergency buttons left and right and has done for several years now

Chronicle 1 was great, Chronicle 2 was ok, Chronicle 3 was just because $$. Now they are retconning it because to them it really never mattered in the first place.

Chronicle 3 however has definitly been made with at least some idea of the plot of shadowland in their internal lore bible. Sooo... yeah that's odd.

Yeah. I have to wonder when it was actually written. Chris Metzen is the lead author on it according to the credits. So, if that was Metzen & the Blizz cdev department, then how separate would that be to Steve Danuser & the game team?

As
@PyromancerSarg said and was confirmed at previous blizzcon, Chronicle Is just the POV of the Titans about the events they narrate -
No it isn’t. Listen to what Danuser said again.https://twitter.com/PyromancerSarg/status/1191475529964281856 …

Is it actually a retcon if it’s just gaining information from a new source that changes the consumers perspective of knowledge? I personally don’t think so. Just because we weren’t aware of his presence doesn’t mean it wasn’t there all along.
-
Ah it's more there are accounts of how Arthas thought and felt within the helm, and the presences within the helm, that don't mesh with Shadowlands lore.
