I will just repost this.
Hey, Darkshore should be saw as a fight back from WC III. NE vs Scourge
Hey guys, do you remember that one time Blizzard wrote a good story about the Night Elves which was faithful to the source material and actually made the fans happy?
Yeah, me neither.
Delaryn and Sira are recruiting.
They saw the light. I take it you guys came to your senses as well.
No hope btw.
Jesus Christ, we are literally playing an expansion where the Alliance is butchered and portrayed like incompetent morons, thrown under the bus and made to lick Anduinâs boots although he is an 19 year old teenager whoâs someoneâs precious Golden boy.
The Horde is going through YET another self-destroying story where characters will probably start dropping like flies in the best possible MOP recycle.
Individual races have been butchered, characters have been destroyed.
And in all this tornado of crap, you have ONE RACE claiming that they suffer the most. I have been here for a year, the night elven fans have generated more salt then the ENTIRE HORDE community.
I get it, its bad, but seriously, the âwe suffer the mostâ attitude is getting rather obnoxious.
WE ALL ARE!
Fear not. You wonât have a nelf community soon enough. It shall be silent.
You legit donât get it. If they keep doing it like this, WoW WILL die. We are ALL on the line.
If your not Jaina, Anduin or Sylvanas - you are basically screwed and thatâs everyone.
Look at what happened to Turaylon and AlleriaâŚ
Of course I get it. I already said we were the canary in the coal mine and screaming. I play other races than this character. Or used to anyway.
Welcome to the Horde player experience.
Or, to be more precise, what Orcs felt in MoP, and Forsaken are feeling in BfA.
With the additive of having the other half of the playerbase (or a big chunk of it) cheering while screaming âMore!â,âMore!â, âMore!â⌠(or âNot enough!â, âNot enough!â,âŚ)
And as a troll player, still waiting on Blizzard to deliver a racial leader, a functional capitol, and something resembling racial identity/stories.
Been waiting for the first about half a decade, and for the later for 2 and a half decades.
Pissing contests seem rather pointless with the current garbage fire. But, there are certain reactions that seem waaaaay over the top.
âHey guys, I know that the entirety of the community is angry about how their race is getting butchered in this terrible story, but guess who got it the worst?â
Blizzard: âHey Night Elf players, do you want to enact vengeance on the evil monarch who destroyed your empire millenia ago and who has caused you so much suffering over the years?â
Night Elf players: âHell yeah!â
Blizz: âWell, not going to happen. Instead, you will be doing asbolutely nothing.â
I see Zaraoâs selective memory is at work. Zulâjin clearly never existed, or the fact that the Zandalari just joined the Horde.
Some of you think iâm going over the top. But when they are done with us as a race, your turn will come.
OoohâŚ
Guess you should be grateful then! Given you seem to count on villain batted characters, or entire new breeds of the race you play, then Night elves should be grateful about Staghelm in Cataclysm and the Void elves in BfA!
Iâll keep on waiting on Darkspear stuff, mind you.
Anyway, done with the pissing contest. You guys do you.
And Elyssarain, be mindful about mocking someone elseâs lore while simultaneously complaining about this stuff. Makes you sound rather hypocrite.
I think Blizzard have seen the Nightborne and sort of consider that to be the âElven vengeanceâ on the ancient Queen.
It might be that line of thinking whereby itâs âWell Thalyssra knew of Azshara. Letâs have it where one of her Apprentices joined Azshara and became Naga and letâs establish a Nightborne vs Naga thing.â
Make no mistake, I donât like this approach.
The difference between the other races and Night Elves is that they donât get so much attention. Night Elves were in the (bad) spotlight the most of the time. Thatâs why it feels that they have it worser than other races.
Donât forget Volâjin either!
And sure, iâd take 5 Staghelms if it meant a proper narrative.
When I take lore advice from you Zarao, Iâll be sure to tell Thoradin to burn the other half of the human regiments. You know, the half he hadnât apprently burned yet.
Hey,you scare me with this thread,i dunno what will happen in next patch,letâs just leave evrythying where it is for now,ok.
Well, look at the bright side: Classic is coming out in a few months! There we have all our favorite characters, unchanged and undamaged. We have great morally grey actions within the Alliance, we have corruption in Stormwind, we have old-school-Thrall and Sylvanas.
Iâm excited to see the old park in Stormwind again
