This is a bit upsetting honestly. It sounds like she backtracked because they saw people talking to it.
Most people liked it tho or didn’t have anything negative to say. Again, the loud minority wins for some reason.

Why? Are we getting 2/3 of Orgrimmar? You got to go to the new night elf city, did you not?
Oh that short memory…
Omg I can’t. A horde City will be the capital Hub of an expansion and people are complaining about “Alliance bias” 
I have seen everything now.
(also let’s not forget that Dalaran, who was part of the alliance, became fully neutral 
at least Silvermoon is still Horde)

I’m just curious how you consider them even on the same level.
Darnassus was the only night elf city in this game unless you count Suramar.
Bel’ameth is a settlement, not a city it’s more akin to a town. You’re basically comparing a town vs a city, a faction capital vs some rando place in the middle of no where.
When you rebuild Theramore, give us back southshore and lordaeron.
Well thats pretty lame.

It is not Alliance players that make all these lore/gameplay decisions, we didn’t ask for Silvermoon as the main expansion hub, or who can go to which part, or when a Horde leader is the next loot piñata again.
If Horde players can be glib about telling us to just reroll Horde, if we want a better game experience POV, maybe follow your own advice for once, and roll Alliance if you think the bias is so strong on the other side…

As usual, Blizzard already caved into the complainers.

That’s what i find most striking about all this, Horde and Alliance players at each other’s throats, while it was Blizzard’s foolish decision to turn a major Horde city into a shared hub in the first place, which kicked off this whole kerfuffle.
There’s no way to make something like that work without upsetting a large part of the playerbase, after 20 years, Blizz must have been aware of that.
They probably intended to be like that at first and then changed their minds after reading the ‘feedback’.
Hopefully soon. All faction hubs should fully work like Bel’ameth. Opposing faction getting a “being watched” debuff and that’s it. Alliance and Horde have been working together for years now.
Yes, some backward folks among both factions are still nostalgic or too stubborn to adapt to the modern times, but all in all it would make so much more sense lore wise - and gameplay wise. That way, I’d even faction change some of my characters to Horde, when I’m still able to have them use the Alliance hubs.
Ah yes, like Bel’ameth. Allow the genocidal maniacs to walk free alongside the refugees they created. Reminds me of something, can’t really tell what though.
You know full well that the way Bel’ameth was handled was a mistake.
Not sure why you’re saying we should adapt to “modern times”. What’s modern? That every game looks and feels like a mobile gacha game where nothing matters?
We’ve exiled people for less…
I’m speaking about the in-game times. Alliance and Horde are no longer at war, have finally realized that working together to defend the planet might be a bit more important than squabbling about a few spans of land on said planet. We have to move on into a new future instead of getting strung up on past mistakes.
Horde champions rallied to defend the tree like everybody else. Sylvanas was punished for her crimes. May not have been enough (but seriously, how could you really do that?), but they are all trying - at least canon wise (not talking about unreasonable players here).

You’re seriously comparing an RP Area, that doesn’t even have a Bank or Auction House, with an actual Capital? Sure mate 
Bel’ameth is 100% neutral…
Wrong. You clearly never been there as Horde. Horde can’t use Vendors or anything in Bel’ameth. We can go there and look how pretty it is, but that’s it.

You can take the elves’ corner. They don’t need it anymore 
cannonically sylvi ran the attack after sending shammies and dudus of horde to silithus too, so visiting tauren druids had 0 effect on it really.
So for hordie dudus and shammies I can see why, as for the whole genocide bit it was a decision on sylvi’s side, I can tell why people would be pissed ic still alas.
While I do like myself some faction conflict (Which is why I play classic on the side), it made more sense when you know…forsaken were seen as (and are) evil and not accepted by anyone, orcs HAD TO pillage elven woods for resources they did not have in durotar, and trolls had no home etc.
When every saturday is us fighting for the SAKE OF THE GALAXY, it makes too little sense…Like…void storm approaches it is gonna swallow silvermoon! We need both factions help! BUT AH, ALIIANCE CAN’T ENTER THE CITY THEY DEFEND WHILE FARMING SILVERMOON COURT REP!
or in similar manner—druids refusing horde/undead/dhs entry to amirdrassil in emerald dream while the entire tree and world was threatened to swallowed by te flames (while in classic we did not even have kaldorei waarlocks let alone mages, let alone allowing undead entry to dream)
There are many examples but though they may dislike it story had changed, and after all the, WORLD IS ENDING WE BEND, when you make factions fight for petty stuff it feels dumb from a story perspective.

Seen as evil yes but to generally say forsaken are evil puts them in the wrong light
