It’s why i’ve always liked Lor’themar, is pretty content to just chill at his end of the Eastern Kingdoms but then would really angrily flip a park bench into a fountain and bully Kirin Tor when he has to.
Honestly with how many [world ending threats] and [war] we’ve had, it makes sense for people to get a bit weary of it all. But the way they’ve gone about it is bad. Like not even enjoyable after a few drinks bad.

I got a sneak peak of Garrosh in 9.1, please don’t share this.
I for one can’t wait to do world quests for Sylvanas in 9.2 when she becomes part of the Maw rebellion, mawsworn who broke free from the Jailer’s influence. They call themselves “The Abandoned”.
Bringing Garrosh back can go so wrong. I definitely don’t want to see a redeemed Garrosh who just says "I was wrong about everything. I’m sorry. Let’s be friends "
Honestly, everything Garrosh did when alive was small beans when compared to Sylvanas. If they’re just going to drag him out just for him to join the Anduin Super Friends Club, I’d lose it. He was interesting exactly because he was so opposite of the usual goody two shoes leaders we only seem to have left now.
Yeah, right. Making up some new magic just screams “we are desperate and don’t know anything about the setting we are writing in”.
Is there ANY worse way to write a character that was only made up in SL into past events? Because I think they reached peak bad here.
The context is unknown because they don’t know it yet themself. Respect his character arc… Ok. Can’t wait to see him + Sylvanas redemption arc.
Please no.

Sure and let me guess, the jailer is a banished First One?
Yeah, here’s a funny idea:
Instead of making it all up with some random magic that didn’t exist before, how about Anduin and the Jailer have a talk. A very long talk, where the Jailer explains his motives to Anduin and Anduin in return explains why he believes in the stuff he does. Anduin, being all alone with the Light currently not hearing him, starts to doubt himself and his actions as well as friends because the Jailer brings up some very good points and that he has seen what happened on Azeroth. The Jailer says something along the lines of “I don’t want to kill everything, I want to unite everyone but I can’t do that on my own” which creates a ig idealistic conflict. This would require that the forces of the Jailer are more than just random npcs and nameless characters. Perhaps they joined him on their own free will because they see his points that living with many different ideologies will always cause conflict / war. A bigger goal, not “haha I want power lol”. Anduin joins him willingly, because he is seduced by the ideas and tries to bring us over too. Everyone is like “oh nooo”. At the end we defeat the jailer and Anduin is like “Aight I was wrong, but I learned so much that I can’t return to you as a king, I am not worthy of it”. Which means he would go on a long journey that we can follow.
My point is that I dislike greatly that the characters in Warcraft seem to have zero personality, ideals or ANYTHING that would give them some personality. They have 1 character trait, which is whatever character trait they currently need in whatever story the writers come up with. You can(!!!) join a cause WITHOUT random magic being involved, just by BEING CONVINCED THE OTHER SIDE MAY BE RIGHT.
PLEASE these people make MONEY with their stories and I’ve read more indepth stories on Wattpad. Dumbledore is gay was a better twittertwist than this.
Blizzard are the writers of such narrative, so if they decide to put an average citizen NPC into the said environment - it is their choice. But if they are proclaiming that “yo, you shouldn’t really be there, yk” - then it is how it is, like it or not.
Tbh out of all the “major” lore characters Danuser got his filthy simpy hands on Garrosh clearly got the best outcome, just let him be milked in Revendreth in peace smh
That as well, too. So whenever people want to follow devs, who thought that titanforged was a great idea a while back, or follow reasonable lore of the universe itself, which is, idk, rather sensible.
In an expansion where you have the 4 covenants and it should be a choice… You still can’t join the major bad guy because … I don’t know. His ideologies are wrong I guess!!!1
Imagine if Caesars Legion in Fallout New Vegas was just the “bad guy faction” you can’t join because “they do bad stuff”. That some members have deep personalities and/or ideas, thoughts and character traits would be completely glanced over. Google “Lanius Fallout New Vegas” and you’ll see what I mean. Having a complete philosophical talk with Caesar? Wouldn’t happen because “they the bad guys!!1”.
Just for us roleplayers (and maybe non-roleplayers who like the story) it’s a huge hassle. Because on one side someone can argue that “Ol’ Emma is there so why shouldn’t I?” and on the other side it’s a lore statement. Would be great if these two work together but I guess one developer asking a writer is too much to ask for.
People that didn’t read the lore statement will be confused greatly, which usually should be avoided BUT IT’S BLIZZARD I GUESS. Can’t expect consistency.
Exactly the same as to why Garrosh saying the B word is allowed, yet it is against TOS in-game.
We, as players, aren’t in the right to say what we can do and what we can’t, when there are already set rules or guidelines, given by the developers. It sucks for some, but like , I am confident that is not the end of the world.
They removed that line by the way because one (1) developer was playing the game with his under 13 child and that line was “out of place”. Happened pretty recently too. The only thing that made me question this is “If 1 person at Blizzard can change that, what else can they change content wise if they don’t like it?..”
