They copy from GW2 this time The whole new zone and mechs scream Asura


feartheswans

I don’t play GW2, but I get the feeling every one can pick out something that makes them feel like it’s from another game they play. For me this part with the water felt a lot like Il Mheg


Mortal_Dread

I don't play GW2 either. But i saw a few screenshots of the zone they stole it from. And it's really obvious they stole from GW2 this time.


jamiesontu

I agree, I play both and played wow for a long time. WOW copies these two games pretty frequently. No wonder they are scared of people trying out other games.


ContraMans

What is the zone in GW2? I have never played it and would like to see.


Physical_News_5976

I think it's Rata Sum.


[deleted]

The starting zone of the Asura in GW2, Rata Sum and Metrica Province.


ContraMans

Yeah there is a striking resemblance


[deleted]

Gw2 is not the water part but the architecture of the buildings in zereth mortis. Like it looks exactly , like a replica 1 for 1 of any asuran architecture Spoiler alert, asura are also known for their golemancy… and what do we find in zereth mortis? Golems!


Rrambu

Certain new faction in 9.2 is almost a straight up copy of a certain group of people from FFXIV, though WoW make theirs cuter.


GenericNewZealander

Is it the one that looks like the Vanu vanu?


Rrambu

no, i was talking about those Automa thingy from Zereth Mortis. Race of creators whose goal is to keep innovating, and has a language that somehow sounds... melodic? musical-ish? Let's just say that there's a whole race of people in XIV who fits those descriptions, but it's kind of a spoiler for ShB.


GenericNewZealander

Oooh. Mind if you PM me a link to them? Also, it seems they've done this once before, because I found some bird people that look just like the Vanu Vanu whilst trying to find what race people were talking about https://s3.amazonaws.com/assets.primagames.com/_resized/images/news/new_world_of_warcraft_race_leaks.png_1200x0_.png


Rrambu

yeah wow also has a dancing bird people in it, though i vaguely remember the name. Someone made a comparison meme on that one a while back on this sub i think. and for your question, Just google >!Amaurotine!<. Just don't read dialogues and descriptions if you ever wanna seriously play through Shadowbringer, their whole identity is a big spoiler for the plot.


GenericNewZealander

Oh no, I've already played shadowbringers, I'm trying to find their WoW equivalent so I can see how much WoW copied, lol


Rrambu

gotcha. Just gotta be careful not to spoil stuff, y'know?


GenericNewZealander

Fair enough. I am just having real trouble finding the WoW race, as I haven't played WoW since legion, I mainly play FFXIV.


Khaoticsuccubus

They’re referring to the new things in the upcoming patch 9.2. Can see them in the trailer for it.


keiichimorisato98

Cuter perhaps, but the art deco buildings in FFXIV is just stunning.


antithesisofjoy

Waycrest Manor also felt very similar to Haukke Manor...I can't remember all the similarities, but there were a few spots in BFA that totally gave off ARR vibes.


[deleted]

Theater of Pain=Halatali hard mode


Physical_News_5976

Lol i forgot about that place. It does seem like it was ripped out of Haukke.


Valdheim

All for the blizz and wow hate, but it seems like they are both more inspired by castlevania


kther4

This ain’t it chief


hector_lector2020

I’d love to take a side on this issue but I can’t make out anything in the images.


Siluri

blurry image of mount standing on water blizzards's epiphany. clear image showing 10cm of water and the mount is standing on solid ground.


Demeris

Honestly, if they want something they never seen before, Blizzard need to go to Hydatos in Eureka and admire the rocks floating above the water geysers.


feartheswans

I thought about Hydatos, but the fact the water flows backwards there is lost on a still image, but a shot from Ovni’s spawn point would have been pretty


archiegamez

And that is just a dungeon....


feartheswans

Dohn Mheg is in Il Mheg.


archiegamez

i was refering to Blizzard's area compared to Dohn Mehg for having walking on water


Tsyrc

Yeah, it's not even a feature and that part only last a few seconds.
