An illustrated plan for radically restructuring and rebuilding World of Warcraft.
Basically, writing the topic text for the remaining 90% of the topics. (The custom graphics have been in heavy production since late 2021 and were finally completed in early July 2024.) I've just finished the writing for Beyond Dragonflight 7: The Design Schism.
It's a direct export from Adobe Premiere of the entire ReWoW slide deck as one video. My task of writing the topic text is MUCH faster using Photoshop, so I'm constantly exporting slides to a browsable sequence of JPG & PNG images. Reimporting that sequence into Premiere takes seconds, so it's is an ideal way to distribute Work-in-Progress updates.
I've been balancing this project with a full-time job for over 5 years. ReWoW started in 2019 as a 3D Studio MAX & Unreal Engine Level Design project with a few broad game design ideas attached. By June 2020, the game design portion had grown so much that finishing both portions simultaneously had become impossible, and I had to park the level design portion. From the very beginning, the game design portion of ReWoW has NEVER stopped (1)Growing, (2)Slowing Down, (3)Getting Better, and (4)Seeming Almost Finished. I've always indulged any change to ReWoW that improved the end result, and only 6 months of work out of those 5 years was ever completed on time. I have come to hate this project every bit as much as I love it, and I honestly don't understand how I haven't given up. I want ReWoW to succeed and I long to be able to work on it full-time...but I would also like to watch it die screaming in a fire.
Yes. The 71-topic core is quite interconnected and had to be released & finished as one. However, my future plans are to continue adding individual topics/sections to the core until at least 100 topics total and probably closer to 200. (Some of these future topic sections are named at the end of the graphic in Beyond The Saga 1: Introduction.) Even if I were able to start working full-time on ReWoW today, expanding into those other sections would last well into 2025.
Nope. I was smiling all the way through the BlizzCon announcements. Everything they revealed about WoW's future either fit well with or was already in ReWoW, and the end of a triple-expansion saga offers a perfect transition point into ReWoW.
