The dragons just ressurected Bolvar out of all those soldiers who fell? Hmm i doubt that too me it just looked like they cleared the acid and flew on. Guess he was powerless, but why did LK spend so much time toreturing him if he was non-important and not just kill him instantly and take his soul like he did with Sarufang?
Okay, weâll just agree to disagree then.
You take the gameplay as litteral interpretation of the story.
I translate the gameplay to fit the story intent, because the gameplay by itself cannot convey it perfectly.
I mean, story-wise itâs not an MMORPG and there arenât 50 Paladins hanging out in Boralus who all wield The Ashbringer. Story-wise thereâs only 1 which belong to âthe heroâ.
Likewise with The Lich King encounter. Your 25man Horde guild raid didnât kill The Lich King in the story. The hero was present there alongside other champions, led by Tirion Fordring, who ultimately defeated The Lich King with the power of The Light and Ashbringer itself.
There were no Forsaken players there, because none of the proud champions who fought alongside Tirion are named or identified. Your character is sort of part of the storyâŚand sort of not.
Itâs the same way that Blizzard spun the story for Onyxia. Story-wise it was Varian who defeated Onyxia, alongside some helpful aides (us). But gameplay-wise we of course get to beat and loot the dragon.

If a story is good or bad is purely subjective, so youâre right.
Aye, Bolvar aint sitting on the throne, Arhas still is. Scourge donât lvl like us? The Burning Legion sure did. Archimonde and KJ lvled up too. Even Ragnaros, Onyxia and Nefarian so yeah i dunno. But i suppose LK and the scourage are just sitting on their asses.
It is so subjective yet people scream it is bad and if you disagree with them youâre clearly wrong.

Itâs like people no longer pay attention to the story of the games they play.
Every worgen who isnât boosted must be so proud now.
I said that earlier⌠but with arthas this wouldnt be possible.
Arthas rules forevah!
If you think its good thats great. Whoâs screaming i have not seen anyone with capslock in the thread yet.
Kilâjaeden knocks on the DEV door , excuse me I just watched a silly trailer with this female char called Sylvanus ripping a Helm apart which I created , I do not recall it opening a portal to the shadowlands. No worries Kilâjaedenthe Dev say we just throwing darts at the story board and where they land we following that its great RNG.

With the risk of getting my head bitten off⌠Just to clarify.
Bolvar as Lich King is NOT equal to Arthas as Lich King⌠not sure why people just expect its the exact same Lich King in terms of power.
Also itâs clearly shown in the cinamatic that Sylvanas is using that dark power again, especially when she rips the helm in half.
So who is that dark being behind her in the gameplay cinematic?

Things which are created are not liable to stay the same forever. Also I was referring to the OP, who couldnât understand how Sylvanas was strong enough to do what she has and is doing.
Exactly, people donât seem to be following the actual story and are just going by bullet points or something.
I relate to Sylvanas. Sheâs just tired of farming for invincible.

I donât understand why destroying that helm suddenly opened a giant portal to the shadowlands in the sky.

DA Inquisition style
Cause otherwise how would we get to those good looking new areas?
Iâm going on that it wasnât the helm which opened it, but it was preventing someone or something on the other side from opening it.
With space ships, duh
