IMO you are asking for a worse alternative, sure it sucks in a lot of ways but so does the other way.
“Sells you out”. I also dislike it that the Alliance has to show the Horde what it should be. But I am going to take that then being apart of a Forsaken Puppet state any day.
I just find it entertaining that the “war campaign,” which is meant to be all about your faction fighting the other faction, is actually all about the Alliance fighting against Sylvanas’s Horde, Horde rebels fighting against Sylvanas’s Horde and Sylvanas’s loyalists fighting against… uh, Sylvanas’s Horde (at least according to current information which is all we have to go off of).
I am still confused about Rowa. Who is that and why should I care about her on the Alliance side? Or on the side of Saurfang and Thrall? I mean she serves Sylvanas, so she’s obviously a psycho anyway.
And the datamined texts simply remind me too much about several posters on WoW forums.
Throwaway sunreaver, still angry about mass incarceration and dispossession and the killing of her friends. Attacks Jaina for vengeance. All in all a throwaway character.
Imo. what you people are suggesting is not good for future of the story, not good for the future of the Horde story especially.
What you’re advocating is killing of Horde characters (Sylvanas is a Horde character, accept it) which means that in future expansions there’s less of a chance that a Horde character will play a big role.
That means another Legion-like expansion where 90% of the spotlight and 100% of the neutral spotlight is on Alliance characters which you as Horde will have to follow, and it also could be multiple expansion at that.
I’m getting really really tired of that.
We all know it’s going to be. They’ve had this stupid plot planned out for a while now (Since MoP, since it’s pretty much a copy/paste of it). You can tell by how little the player’s choice actually matters.
Because she voices a valid issue the Blood elves should still have against Jaina.
And instead of giving it the validity it deserves, the story seems to be portrayed in a way that vindicates or excuses the aggressor that wronged the ones Thrall and Baine should consider their allies.
Want an equivalent? It would be like siding with Anduin to kill a Night elf that wanted to kill Horde for burning Teldrassil.
Yeah, players will obviously position themselves against that.
Sylvanas is a cancer to both factions in this game, you are advocating for her to stay despite her poisoning the well for all future storytelling moving forwards.
If you are worried about Alliance characters taking the spotlight then more Horde characters need to be developed. It is as simple as that. That is like me saying they killed off Putress when they shouldn’t because the Forsaken needed more characters despite what he did at the Wrathgate.
Can you imagine if that happened as an example?
Keeping Sylvanas as a Horde character and within the Horde will ruin everything. This isn’t about what you want this is about having a good story.
either that, or they will have anduin take over horde aswell and we will have follow him or so. Id hate it and makes no sense, but wouldnt put it past them.
