Anyone else just expecting shadowlands to morph into a completely different expansion by the end? Like many assume the light vs void cosmic space war is the next expansion but what if its just like, 9.3 lol

I kinda feel like Shadowlands will land differently only because it seems like they have a legit final boss this time around. Ever since WoD we've had that mystery final boss that at times made no sense whatsoever.

Archimonde as the final boss of WoD. Argus as the final boss of Legion. N'zoth as the final boss of BfA. At least with N'zoth he -kinda- had built up with 8.1.5 but good gravy did it not land good when it came to his patch in 8.3. He needed way more time.

I don't think they're planning on the Jailer being the final boss, but I have no idea what they're planning because they can't know at this point if the Jailer is even a villain that will resonate with people. He doesn't even have a backstory yet.

I think they confirmed it in some interview but they could be lying. Wasn't Grom supposed to be the final boss in wod or something?

Grom was originally supposed to be the final boss of WoD but they thought another Orc Warrior as the final boss after MoP was a bad call.

I understand that decision but I think it hurt the story somewhat. Grommash deciding to side with the people that murdered his armies and his alternative future son was always weird to me

I think the main issue with that was the scrapping of certain story beats with Grom. Had we gotten an arc with Grommash learned the complete truth or gained our trust we'd be more open to him. But his arc was never shown to us so it felt weird.
