PTR Spoiler/Discussion Thread (Part 2)

Yes. In a big ??? moment, they intentionally didn’t let their Alliance, Horde, and neutral writing teams communicate, or at least that’s what they claimed after the fact.

The charitable interpretation is that they intended to make some kind of message about propaganda demonizing the enemy, but even if so, they completely failed to telegraph their intent and at any rate blundered it. Players are used to assuming that what they’re seeing in-game is real in-universe unless explicitly said otherwise, like with the visions of N’Zoth. And now you’re telling me failing to tell me that the night elf civilian corpses I saw in Astranaar with my own eyes are just Alliance propaganda? What?
