Of course, without the draenei there’d be no restored Sunwell, but let’s not pretend that was some noble act of Alliance devotion.
Velen stepped in because the world couldn’t afford another corrupted font of power, much like Thrall didn’t hold the world together in Cataclysm out of sheer Horde loyalty.
Funny how people love to glorify one side’s sacrifice while conveniently forgetting the other’s.
In the end, both were forced into action for everyone’s sake faction banners had very little to do with it.
my predictions for the 2/3 split its probably a small part for vendors, quests and other utility.
horde maintains old districts and the last 1/3 or so will be full of mobs and hostiles so while shared with the alliance its a quest zone rather than anything useable.
From what I have heard the horde keeps the eastern part of the city if we look at the map right now extent it to the west cause these parts are rebuild by now I would gues the horde pretty much keeps most of what is Silvermoon now minus the Basar and murder row.
Everything else that is now city will probably stay horde only.
Im Not happy with that but it could be worse.
And if we are honest blizzard knew they could not just make the city look nice and turn it neutral.
What they did is basically building a new city and fusing it with the old city
Thats what i would expect of them
but I suspect they will do a Boralus as well and have large areas of the city be swarmed with hostile mobs.
one can hope they actually quest related unlike the many randomly hostile gangsters in Boralus who don’t even have a quest related to them.
this could happen just as a Stormwind replacement. Blizz never put effort in a place not bein the main hub of the exp when a main faction city still exists.
So i think all these beautiful faction cities will remain depleted for good.
Every time they come out of one of their “RARR! SMASH!”-stupors, they hide behind “Yeah, that was another Horde, we’re good guys now” to somehow shake off any responsibility, adding in the Hordes before Thrall even got started, that adds up…
Didn’t the draenei help in cleansing the sunwell?
Didn’t the alliance help in defending the sunwell from the Legion.
Without those things you wouldn’t have a restored city.
Oh and who’s there to help defend this restored city yet again? That’s right: The alliance.
