Goblins: Crying in the corner… or happy that Blizzard barely touches them, since the last time that happened, they got Gazlowe, the head of a different and neutral cartel as their Trade Prince.

I don’t see how the handling of the Bilgewater leader surprises people. You first have Thrall who lets got of Gallywix who clearly is a sociopath who killed and sold off his people for profit in a most dire of crisis but not only that threatening his own life and that of the Goblins who saved it. Then you have Thrall again, installing a foreign cartel leader (Very American of them mind you.) onto the seat of the Bilgewater leadership role without ever asking the opinion of the people Gazlowe is meant to rule and you never hear any of them talk about it whether positively or not.
But Gazlowe is a good guy amirite? He’s so good that every of his employee has got life insurance don’t you see haha. Surely he would never get rid of an union.

They are going to fire that canon any second now!
They are pulled out of the forever box whenever blizzard wants to have some whacky hijinks.
same goes for gnomes on the alliance.
Gazlowe stole the PC goblins rightful place.
Let me just remind you the real MVP is the goblin player
they were in-line to become trade prince.
they were instrumental in saving thrall from the alliance.
They defeated an old god minion and forced a faction of naga to bend the knee.
they defeated a horde of zombies and a fire loa.
they even freed the cartel from Gallywixes enslavement.
The only reason Gallywix is alive is because Thrall spared him, otherwise you would be in charge.
after the intro you are demoted to a nobody adventurer and when Gallywix finally gets the boot, some mook from another cartel gets the seat because of nepotism.

Least the goblins have their own, proper, city.
It’s useless, since it lacks a AH, bank, etc, but its there and could be reworked into a proper capital easy.
That’s what I’ve been saying. At least Gallywix fled to the shadowlands never to be seen again.

Gnomes have a city.
its called Mechagon
go there and you can see both mecha-gnomes and regular gnomes live there now.
its not a “proper” city if by proper you mean have vendors, but its there.

No everyone can enter the city, horde, alliance, gnomes, orcs etc.
All you need is mechagnomes unlocked, thats it.
the entrance can be found on the mechagon island in the rustbolt camp, on the pathway down towards the beach where the goblins are.
Yeah thats not the gnome city. Sorry but its not.
Thats like saying Darnassus (or Stormwind) were the worgen cities.
It’s a gnome city tho, like… uuh… uuh
it depends what you mean with “proper” city
the goblins have some vendors and a working inn
but so does telgus rift or whatever, the void elves have. is that a proper city?
the forsaken live in a city but no one is calling it a proper one despite having vendors as well.
so what is a proper city?
A quick look at GD reveals that there are some nelfposters who consider Amirdrassil a joke and an insult, because it doesn’t have any stone structures like a true night elven city apparently should.
So it seems like what counts as a “true city” is ultimately subjective.
If people want to know what nelfposting looks like when people like me complain about it, this is a decent example.

Damn bro if only Night Elves could grow stone, chiseled out buildings out of the ground right after a magical tree breaks through from a magical realm of nature magic.
What kind of lukwarm take do those people have, what’s wrong with wooden buildings??? Warcraft 3 didn’t have all the pomp of Highborne doodoo.

Especially when the best building in Darnassus was the bank

I dunno if Amirdrassil has anything like this, but if not, that’s what the complaint should be.

I feel like half the Night Elf community just wants to RP being High Elves honestly, they want the Greco-Roman Empire aesthetic which just isn’t the Kaldorei’s grounds anymore.
They just don’t realise living in trees grown to look like giant wooden animals is a cool aesthetic. No appreciation for it

Ok yeah I get your point.
But I do not consider Mechagon related to the true gnomes, which have been trying to reclaim their city since Vanilla.
I get that its subjective, but I just want Gnomeregan for the gnomes 
The monkey’s paw curl.
Gnomeregan is now reclaimed in lore, yet in-game the entire regional valley is now only available inside a raid.

I for one appreciate night elves sticking to wooden structures.

Considering that the wisps can shape wood to build for the elves, nothing. It makes sense.

I mean, in Azshara Harbinger, this aesthetic seems to have been indeed Nelf/Highborne stuff… You could even argue that a conquered, updated and revamped Eldre’Thalas could exactly carry that vibe.
I like all of them so I’m not complaining.
