This year's Midnight expansion marks the second act of World of Warcraft's universe-altering Worldsoul Saga, and there's tragedy on the way, whether it arrives now or slightly later. Designed to mark 20 years of the MMORPG, there will be casualties in the epic multi-part story, and chances are at least one of your faves might be among them.
"There will be important characters that do not survive the trilogy," Maria Hamilton, design director on World of Warcraft, explained to PC Gamer. "It'll be a lot of death, I'm afraid. Those are hard decisions. We have arguments about, 'Is this the right time? What will we do with that person gone?'"
