The speculation chamber

megathread for speculation about upcoming updates.

everything in this thread is tentative, there’s a high chance for it to be wrong. proceed with caution.

i’ll start with the news about the update delay:

this marks the update’s first official delay.
it makes me wonder about how much of this update is actually finished if they thought it would be ready by mid-december.

additionally, it makes me think that if we’re not getting the update at TGA 2024, we might at least be getting a trailer.
it would make a lot of sense, since it’d kickstart the “marketing campaign” that moon studios has been talking about for a while, opening the floodgates for a bunch of new players to get interested.

It’s bad, I’m really looking forward to content updates, but if they are going to delay, I think there are reasons for that. In my opinion, it’s better to do it efficiently than with a bunch of mistakes. Thanks for the information. :slightly_smiling_face:

Also, early access for PoE and Titan Quest 2 is expected at the end of the year, so there is something to play before the update comes out. As for bugs, there’s no way without them, they will be there anyway, that’s normal. :roll_eyes:

I agree. These tedious expectations. I’m still playing Witcher 3 and Diablo 4.

so in this i mentioned i had speculation about these 2 dudes:


as you can see, there’s a glowy thing in the middle of both their wings. i believe this to be a cerim whisper, but corrupted in some way to serve the bosses and grant them power.

are these crucible enemies? i have reasons to believe they are. cerim culture seems to have a thing for dark aquatic blue & black colors. perhaps they’re arriving with the bossrush statue, that would make the most sense to me.

yup this is no longer the case. tga trailer theory busted

people are probably gonna be confused by the citizens list (i was) so let’s analyze it.

this is what i think:

  • each “patrykbrzezinski” is a separate realm citizen.

  • the names below them are the names of characters the user has played with on the realm.

  • the numbers to the left of the character names are their ingame levels.

  • the area names to the right of the character names are the areas the character logged off in.

  • the timers to the right of the area names are the characters’ total playtimes.


also, anyone wanna take a guess as to what the unreleased zone in the bg is? i personally think it’s marin village.

leaves a lot of room for speculation. who might we have to sacrifice? so far there is no NPC that comes to mind, or is there?
