I know it seems strange, but I’m practically a cow. So why am I wearing leather?
I don’t understand the issue with this and a few others. Some I can see they’re suggestive but what’s this one?
Nah. It would mean the writers would have to spend time to make the Alliance interesting. They can’t be bothered with that. They would much rather work on the Horde.
The Horde is interesting? News to me
Horde… Interesting? I suppose re-treading the same plot counts as conflict but it’s not a satisfying story. BfA would have gotten an easy fix just by making Alliance being the aggressors for once.
Now nobody gets faction pride. Everything else will now just go downhill and drill through the bottom of this bedrock.
Would it? Or would the same thing have happened…
What Blizzard call “interesting.”
Not really. The same things would have happened for sure.
Can’t expect a B+ work from a team that’s barely an F.
eh
I dunno, I feel like the nelf story is going in that direction too (or already has), where it’s okay because night elves got a bit angry and started attacking the attackers a little too much : (
But the original point was that y’all should stop being hypocritical though. Especially when it gets followed up with very frantic paranoia like
what do you even mean lmao
Yeah but who knows as far as current writing goes maybe Tyrande will suddenly be a cook at a Burger King location next patch.
Yeah and my point is that there is no hypocrisy because they aren’t the same thing. The person who did the burning has been getting absolutely pummeled with the villain bat for over three years and their faction has been consumed by the designated Good Guy faction. It is very clearly represented as bad, constantly, and not a single character ever disagrees besides that 1 paragraph of orcs cheering in A Good War.
This is not in any way comparable to an american company writing about how they the Gilneans heroically and amazingly conquered the evil native americans Drust to bring goodness to the land of Kul Tiras (and it’s all okay because the Drust aren’t nice people and use scary magic).
It’s absolutely apples and pears.

JFC you are not oppressed under the jackbooted heel of fascism because your videogame has brown elves in it. What a hideous comparison.
You know why.
Bingo. They’re desperately avoiding another “WoW is problematic” situation. Coldblooded corporate calculation.
God bless america!

What quote is that?
Martin Niemoller wrote the ‘First they came for the…’ poem after being imprisoned in the camps when he was coming to terms with his own culpability in supporting the regime which eventually imprisoned him.

Dark Iron Dwarf Male
- Interested in joining the mile deep club?
Draenei Male

When we arrived here I lost many jewels that had been in my family for generations. If you could get your hands on my family jewels I would be deeply appreciative.

Would you be offended if I said that you had a beautiful transgoto? The other one, that’s not bad either.
Draenei Female

Yes, they are real, and they can cut glass.

Out of the way, you nobgoblin!

I’m short and good with my hands… how can you resist?

Is that your wallet? Or are you just glad to see me? Both I hope!
-
So then, he asked me to go up on him!
Highmountain Tauren Male
- Trust me… I have experience at exploring deep places.
Highmountain Tauren Female
-
Are you staring at my rack?
-
You don’t need to be from the Skyhorn tribe to join the mile high club.
Human Male
- A guy walked up to me and said ‘I’m a teepee, I’m a wigwam, I’m a teepee, I’m a wigwam!’ and I said ‘Relax man, you’re too tense!’

Why does everyone automatically assume I know tailoring and cooking?

I like to fart in the tub.

Have you seen Prophet Velen’s new dance? He calls it the ‘Mac’Areena’!

Let’s go back to my ship and twist our nethers.

I admire a soldier who can… remain… at attention.
Mechagnome Male
- Why yes, I do have a vibrate setting! Why does everyone keep asking?
Mechagnome Female

Nightborne Male

Nightborne Female

Undead Female
-
Yes, they’re REAL! They’re not mine, but they’re real!
-
Us undead girls really know how to have a good time, because after all, what’s the worst thing that could happen?
I personally really like most of the vanilla ones and definitely the goblin ones. I’d rather they kept them, they fit the races, are harmless tongue-in-cheek flirts that make plenty references to the game world itself and more.
Edit: Actually I rly like all of them, and find nothing problematic about any of them.
I’m still not seeing the issue with this, at all.
Is the suggestiveness going over my head, or is it a vegan issue?
lmao, never even heard that 1.
I think it has to be that.
Edit: This is one of my personal favorites.
- Yeah. He told me to tie her up and do whatever I wanted to her… so I took her stereo!
What exactly is sexist/bad about that one?
