I want to add 2 more cents from my point of view:

Dark and “heavy” moments exist, and they’ve probably been more numerous through Dragonflight than through Shadowlands. The issue is that their presentation was from a “feelings” point of view instead of “look what just happened because of actions”:

  • The burning of Loamm Niffen felt closer to Gargamelle attacking the smurf village or Bowser attacking the Mushroom Kingdom than Shinra dropping a plate on Midgard slums. Something very simple like having Loamm Niffen stay in its destroyed state and with somber music until the end of Dragonflight would have helped, because it would have enforced the impact of its destruction. Instead the almost immediate reversal back to its original state is giving the signal of “Look, we lost half of our population and every building was decimated, but it was nothing, we built it back up and recovered our numbers in 1 day”.
  • Sindragosa’s arch felt more like a story of “Feel how I suffered” than “Witness the results of my suffering”.
  • The story in Bel’ameth with the Night Elf’s sibling that joined the fire dudes felt more like a story of “How can I cope with this and live on?” than “Look what acting on impulse causes. Learn from it.”.

Sailor moon outfits are not an issue, but giving powers back to the Flights like a Sailor Moon transformation kind of is. They should have tried to copy Power Rangers transformations instead.

Did Ebyssian do anything in the expansion? Did he even transform into his dragon form for anything other than go from one place to another or to take up space at the Seat of Aspects?
Did Sabellian do anything other than squabble with his nephew and get a tour of Aberrus as if he’s visiting a museum?
Did Wrathion do anything other than squabble with his uncle and get a tour of Aberrus because his uncle had two tickets?
Did Senegos do anything other than die?
Did Nozdormu do anything other than say that “he can’t do anything and it’s up to Chromie”?
(I really had to google who Captain Travard is… I thought it was the paladin NPC who tanks in follower dungeons) I am waiting to see what this ragtag group of “heroes” is going to do. Though for obvious reasons I side with the draenei.
Did Kalecgos do anything other than feel useless (and also act uselessly)?

We are currently in the load/reload phase. We eventually go back to to the garage days. Remix was a bit of S&M.

I played the campaign twice, reading every quest and watching every cutscene both times.

Can you provide me a list of what they did that had catalytic contribution to the evolution of the story? Standing around and discussing the situation as if they’re in a Teams Meeting does not count as “doing stuff”, nor does following the “main characters” and being present at the points the story evolved (like Wrathion and Sabellian in Aberrus). I don’t even remember Ebyssian saying/enforcing what their course of action should be, he has been 100% passive.

Tyr contributed more to the story going forward than Ebyssian. Hell, even Vyranoth contributed more to the story, and she was a late addition to the roster (at least the Seat of Aspects can handle their combined weight). And it’s a shame because I really like Ebonhorn ever since he said “No, I won’t be doing that” in Neltharion’s Lair in Legion.

Nah, that’s far too much work to do for someone who obviously just doesn’t want to see it. You’re gonna make up weird reasons why the things “don’t count” as you already did.

And, frankly, I don’t really care that much about your opinion. Believe what you want.

You will not be seeing WoW going back to its old style anytime soon.

Blizzard is based in California, the heart of Western entertainment, now compromised by those who consider things like the roots of WoW to be evil.

As long as we don’t stand down and keep worshiping the God of Metal we can do it.

Common, these are all a bunch of cotton candie people, we are brutal and epic (Thunder and solo on the background)

Ah, the brutal and epic Thunderers of Metal who desperately pray to their god because there’s a stuffed duck toy in their favourite video game.

I don’t know what kawaiiiiii means, but personally I think loving something is usually better than feeling threatened by it.

Especially if it’s a stuffed duck toy.
