Why is Orgrimmar so bad

Aware. However both have been neglected since a while (Durotar Harbor and Stormwind Harbor). And naval power wise im afraid Boralus is still weak as F given their boats are nothing in comparison to the Zandalari one as they have proven that even several boats cant even scratch an Zandalari one. Why Blizzard decided to do that after saying Boralus is a Naval Superpower is beyond me.

I mean
 I kinda love every city in the game because nostalgia dude. Ironforge is a masterpiece too. I agree Horde capital is deserving of a facelift though. Stormwind too tbh.

Aesthetically Orgrimmar is never going to be anything but Orc themed in the same way that SW is human themed. I just don’t spend much time there. I used to have my bank alt based in Silvermoon but it’s not as convenient as being in Org, as we all know not all cities are equal :slight_smile:

Well, it beats discount Legoland for sure but in the event that they update it at some point in the future I hope they incorporate more of the aesthetics that we see in the new portal room. I feel it’s a nice blend of the tribal old school orcish Horde and the newer militaristic that developed under Garrosh.

And add some greenery for goodness sake. The city is situated right next to a large river and ontop of three oases. :expressionless:

As a long time Alliance main turned Horde for pragmatic reasons
I agree, I dislike Orgrimmar.

I’ve once tried Horde back in MoP, and I didn’t liked it. I mean, I could smell the tauren patties coming out of my screen. It reminded me of my grandma taking me to her hometown in the deep countryside.

Now, I could be saying I love the smell of tauren dungs in the morning.

You are right, orgrimmar lacks something


IT NEEDS MORE SPIKES BABY!

Discount Legoland :joy: Lmao.

I so have to find an opportunity to use that.

Orgrimmar is the best. End of story.

How dare you.

Its also Tauren and Troll themed. Even if its just some minor parts of the whole city while the main theme remains orcish.

How old are you? Seriously? Is that what you think? That Tauren just squat and defecate in the street?

Wow


Most adults realise that is not the case. Why, does everyone in Stormwind widdle in the street causing the puddles you see there?

Also, do we get to call human’s ‘Ratlickers’ yet, or is that too soon?

That’s one way of looking at it. To me it’s still just one big orc themed city where a few races have set up. The same applies to SW, but it’s overall theme is still human.

Yup, they both have.

Its like Dwarven District (gnomes and dwarves) and Mage Tower (bit of Night Elves) in Stormwind.

Orgimmar is so weird, you have those old white orc buildings made of wood, stone and hides (cool buildings btw) while there is also the violent insertion of the dark-colored stone buildings with iron spikes and red roofs. It’s really just put together from many different pieces.

It’s kinda weird and definetly not the best city but I can’t imagine how it could really be made much better.

Thats a result of Garrosh intending to overhaul the city as he started with that the moment he was assigned Warchief by Thrall. So he added his own stuff while still keeping a lot of old stuff intact for the time being. If he wouldnt have been kicked out the whole city would look like that at this point.

We could start by giving buildings without doors to actually have them doors etc. Also more NPCs running around doing their daily stuff like in Stormwind where you have childrens running around for a doll, a bread seller etc and yelling what they do 24/7. Orgrimmar could do this with a wide variety of npcs from different races since while Stormwind is the home of the Humans, Orgrimmar is the home of the Horde and not just the Orcs and intended as such.

Yeah to be fair that is true, there is Troll and Tauren parts of the city and they’re rather underdeveloped, they should do something about it.

Plus honestly yeah I’d just really like to see unified style for orgri (though I prefer the old one more to be honest, architecturally)

In terms of RP, I’m thinking that besides Horde elves, every single race do not use heads for their business.

Nah, SW is sanitary and squared away that Lady liadrin herself would be proud to go there and eat on the ground.

Well, SW has been destroyed and occupied by the Horde. Therefore, those rats are only remanence of that era !

do it, switch to the better faction.

Well yeah they still have their capital, make sense, even that Blood Elf Mage follower in Legion mentioned that most Blood Elves don’t ever leave Silvermoon.

Silvermoon have mouses, which depend of who you ask are just rats but different, rodents are really tough to deal with it lol not even Elves can get rid of them, well Night Elves did it in Darnassus at least, maybe big savage cats are better than just domestic cats at dealing with these pests.
