I feel like unnatural magic and being incredibly prone to bloodlust would be rather huge factors for even someone eager to stomp the Horde or the Villain Of The Week. I’m not saying it’s illogical for some to feel that way, of course.
Yeah but chocolate kills you

You know, this doesn’t sound so bad. It would satisfy people who hate Nathanos for being a jackass, while also keeping him in the game.
Plus it would give him a good reason to be a backside towards people talking to him. He’s still cranky over getting mauled by an angry old woman trying to dress like a teenager, and some purple bear with antlers.

The way I see it, being a worgen just puts you on par with the other insanely strong races running around. At the very least on par with a burly orc. So while it’s definitely one hell of an upgrade it’s not that outlandish given what the other races are capable of, as I’ve rambled about before, humans are actually a bit ![:poop:](https://d1bg94bbsh66ji.cloudfront.net/en/wow/images/emoji/twitter/poop.png?v=6" ":poop:")
when it comes to physical prowess, on the lower end in both agility and strength if you compared them to every other race (Warriors and other ‘heroes’ not withstanding, talking average joe here). So really it’s more of an equaliser, the worgen curse I mean.
That said, for ‘downsides’ (Aside from clogged drains or fleas) one could easily say survivors of Gilneas MIGHT be a bit hesitant to work with worgen if they saw one rip most of their loved ones limb from limb only 4 years ago. The worgen pandemic was NOT that long ago, and many soldiers might remember fighting worgen in Northrend or Silverpine as well. So while physically the ‘curse’ is pretty much an upgrade, it could also have a fairly significant penalty when it comes to diplomacy or interacting with certain people.
Anyway, peeve: We still can’t be upright as worgen. The hunching looks dumb. Especially so since female worgen stand upright (What a surprise), and male worgen constantly appear upright in cinematics, in art, in the comics and more.
Also a peeve: Worgen are really smol in-game. Like, really shrimpy. Outside the game they’re depicted as being at least a foot taller than humans, in-game it’s barely an inch in difference, and they’re dwarved by draenei, NElves and… Kul Tirans, who are HYUGE for no apparent reason. It really threw me off when I stood next to an NPC in Kul Tiras and he had at least two foot on me! Especially dissapointing after checking out the comics and seeing them be nearly twice the height of a human in some cases, and definately taller than night elves.
Then again, tauren in-game are midgets as well (8ft instead of their lore-accurate 10ft), orcs too. But would it have killed them to give worgen a bit more height? At least put them with NElves or something?

Anyway, my peeve for the finale of the year: Super Meat Boy.
“Hey, here is a collectible that you desire! Let’s put it behind terrain that you can’t get through, a bunch of lasers that don’t turn off and then turn back on without waiting a bunch of seconds, AND also put it above a rotating sawblade!”
How am I supposed to get that collectible when there is no visible way of getting to it?
You become a degenerate furry and become victim to dog puns. Nobody will respect your RP because you’re not quite a human, either. Big downsides.

No, you’re chocolate.
Despite it being close to 10 years ago, in actual time. Which I imagine most people go by - timeline canonicity aside.
No reason not to become a Death knight either. After all, necromancy really isn’t that morally reprehensible, right? It’s a small price to pay for the ultimate soldier.

It’s nice to receive the acknowledgements you deserve.
Alliance do necromancy = Morally grey at worst
Horde do necromancy = war crime.
It’s the way of the world.
I don’t get why everyone is so hard on Sylvanas. Imagine being some kind of an idiot who puts morals before victory at any cost lmao
Guess you’re wrong sweaty xx

How can I be wrong when I follow the Blizzard canon?

Yeah, but this boils down to prejudices and superstition. From a logical point of view there is absolutely no reason to not become a worgen. Depending on the writing the void elves could suffer from a similar problem in the future.
It’s a different case with the Lightforged because becoming one of them is actually simply an upgrade and is also treated as such. However it’s seemingly also a difficult process as the T’paartos scenario showed us.
A death knight can no longer get any children, and can no longer enjoy stuff like eating or drinking. A worgen can still do all of this without any problems. So the comparison doesn’t really work.
Unless Blizzard has already retconned it and death knights can get children. But, what would be creepy. At the same time I wouldn’t put it beyond them…

I mean take a look around Stormwind.
Yeah but who cares. You’re not drinking or eating when you’re trying to achieve total victory. Nothing else matters, and you’d be an idiot to think otherwise. You should sacrifice everything you are for the greater good.
Also there’s enough orphans to go around for everyone to adopt. You should do your duty, too.

You know we should probably turn the orphans into death knights too.
