Argus is a warzone right now, with the Legion splinters squabbling for what power they can find. The Krokul, the Army of the Light and now the Petinents are but one faction of many, even though one of the most dangerous ones. Until the fighting falls down a bit, it’s unlikely any civillians would even want to go there.

I rather they started with Orcs, Trolls and Taurens. Baine is salvagable. Zekhan was a step in the right direction(some questionable choices aside) and we need a new Orc who is not an elder who regrets his past. Saurfang the Younger and/or Garrosh could’ve fullfilled that role, but we know how that ended. But we need and Orc aside from Thrall to fill in the gap!
For the Alliance, I think Draenei(aside from Velen) and Gnomes are a good choice! Perhaps a proper Dark Iron representative, whom is not Moira or Dagran could also rise to fill up the niché spot! Obviously Umbric would be a good choice aswell, as the true leader of the Void Elves!
Can’t belief K’aresh is a more civilian friendly world then Argus

Ah, fair enough.
After the Army of the Light is done with the Void they should perma remove the Legion from Argus and put those ghosts to rest.
Also hire the K’areshi to restore the ecology, most of Argus is intact… unlike K’aresh!
They gave Xal boots.

No. Add stink lines and magnify closeups on sole creases threefold. Upgrade screenquality to imax.

I’m not disagreeing with the concept.
I just have no faith in it actually being executed at all competently.
Hope people are looking forward to SoO 3.0 and Oops, Dead Horde Leaders for ‘Reasons’ down the line ._.
Edit: What’s really frustrating is they were on to something GOOD with “Actually, the Horde looks scrunchy but is good actually” in WC3 but, if they somehow still struggle to make both factions Good On Their Own Merits, and keep backhandedly villain-batting the Horde, I’d actually rather they just leant into that with their entire chest tbqh? I enjoyed playing Sith, soldiers and mercs in SWTOR, at least that didn’t flinch away from being committed to a vibe!

The Silvermoon Shoe Bandit rides again!
I’m still enjoying my headcanon of Xal thinking of feet as creepy (because look at how many void creatures have feet and then look at what those couple examples look like). She’s just trying to creep everyone out because if she thinks it’s creepy looking what must those puny mortals think??
Yes I like crackfic treated serious now stop looking at me.

Honestly I’d not be against it now they’ve given her boots, but they probably will stop now.
At the start of TWW with her appearance in Dalaran I thought they might’ve shown her entering feet-first to try and have the visual language of everything being beneath her. And then the Nerub-ar palace cutscene happens and… nope, that’s now gone because she touches the ground and she definitely doesn’t think the nerubian queen is an equal to her.
…And then they did it again like three more times further solidifying the only film director they were emulating was Tarantino.
However with the whole “watch as I break your world” thing, the whole being a force that expects subjugation or death - boots actually maybe work for that? But again that’s assuming there was any merit to those camera shots in the first place and there… probably wasn’t.

They can’t execute any of these competently.
Choose your poison:
- Hope that Blizzard brings about true faction neutrality and break down every last barrier between the factions when they’ve shown extreme hesitancy towards the idea of merging the factions, when they often tease at faction tension and when this neutrality tends to involve moments of bias towards this faction and that faction anyway.
- Hope that Blizzard brings about total war between the factions when Blizzard has put so much effort enabling cross-faction play and has neutered hostility and aggression between the factions, and even if Blizzard does bring about total war again, it’s extremely likely to fall into all of the same old pitfalls that it did before.
- Hope that Blizzard finds a balance that involves the factions having some integrity, some boundaries and some tension between them, when Blizzard has shown that they’re incapable of writing nuance and tend to veer too hard in the direction of neutrality and when they do try to write some sort of minor tension, it’s always poorly handled.
Blizzard just lacks the commitment to go towards either extreme and doesn’t tend to have writing of high enough quality to make any of the three options work, unfortunately.

A lot can happen in twenty years. You’ll probably think and feel different in that time too.
I feel like keeping characters in a staid state of stasis is fairly dull. I’d rather people change and develop over time, their opinions changing.
That I agree with.
but as you said-- they keep doing it so its clearly somebody’s fetish.

I doubt I would feel different to people trying to destroy my nation and killing my species and family after 20 years.
Even if they claimed they changed (multiple times now) and got away with it without punishment because it was all The Leaders fault anyway.

It is worth pointing out that in the span of twenty years humans can lose and gain a generation, a lot characters in WoW aren’t. Twenty years is likely to feel a lot more fresh and raw and painful to a people like the draenei or the kaldorei.
That doesn’t mean that I’m against faction diplomacy or the boundaries between factions being lowered slightly, I think that the way Silvermoon’s being handled (if it’s being handled the way I think it is where Alliance get segmented off) is kinda cool - following the theme of co-operation for a greater good despite past transgressions that has been the point of the game since WC3.
I’ve never had one word fill me with so much fear before. Please tell me that there’s proof to ending Xal’atath’s madness (her toes)
