Tyrande's Darkening (8.1 spoilers)

Ok, that leads to the second part: would you continue to feel that way if you were given explicit meta knowledge that said power would be only used for the advancement of her people?

Take of the faction glasses and judge from a neutral player stance.

Are those acts still evil?

I know I know. I was just referring to an hypothetical scenario.

You know that this is purely moral relativism at this point?

No, it is not evil.

Why?

Because from neutral point of view, evil does not exist.

Nothing is good and nothing is evil, these are abstract concepts.

I was VERY hurt. True story.

I can replace every “Evil” in my posts with “from my very subjective point of view and basing that assumption on my cultural preferences, this act is perceived as evil” :wink:

Then, couldn’t it be possible that an action, any action, could be seen good or bad depending on the eye of the beholder?
And that maybe, the reaction against Sylvanas (if mirrored to the tiniest detail with this scenario) wouldn’t be as much about the actions themselves but about the character that is being judged with someone’s personal lenses in a negative light influenced by some past experience?

Essentially, I feel like many wouldn’t feel good about Sylvanas doing this because of their prejudices against her character. And that detaches itself from the actions as such.

No need. Got you at once.

That’s the very idea of moral relativism.

Can’t speak for others but I assume that sympathies and antipathies ALWAYS play a role.

No matter what Baine would do, you guys would hate him :wink:

Because she has been shown as a person capable of major feats of evil in the past? You can twist this as much as you want, your entire premise is flawed.

The act of killing is not better when I do it, but my previous track record allows people doubt. I didn’t kill anyone before, did I not? Meanwhile, you already killed several people, no one will be surprised.

:heart: This is a heart and I decided to write that due to the minimal amount of characters than my post has to contain.

At this point, I feel he would need to do something extremely OOC for me to reconcile with him.
That doesn’t mean I can be capable of judging in a detached fashion some of his punctual acts.

I suppose this is exactly how many people feel about Sylvanas.

So you are of the opinion that any or all of her actions should be judged harshly because most/all of them carry an additional baggage?

Would you continue to feel that way if given explicit clarification about the purpose or goal for her actions?

Are you aware what baggage is? Me witnessing a bombing campaign is baggage. Me killing someone is not baggage, it is an atrocity. Further more, you are bla-bla-blaing and talking about vacuums, shifting several logical positions and making an absolute mess in order for your example to work.

If you are that clever, go hire a Nanny with a track record for stealing for your kid, its easy babbling on the internet.

Why should I trust a liar to tell the truth? I can not even decipher where you are going with this, speak plainly.

Do you mean the same goal as to besiege Teldrassil?

I sometimes have impression that Zarao is arguing for the sake of arguing.

As for video - does anyone else feel that Tyrande voice acting is getting worse and worse? I expect her to switch to troll accent anytime xD
