8.3 PTR Datamining SPOILERS

I’m guessing Calia is talking pre-scrouge and pre-scarlet crusade. You have to remember that the scarlets were driven to zealotry by dreadlords. To the point that anyone who wasn’t one of them was seen as an enemy, regardless if they were undead or living. Who knows what Lillians dad was like prior to the scourge.

This honestly is an extreme turn off for me.

i have played forsaken for 10+ years because i love the gothic aesthetic and the thinly-veiled evil and pragmatism

and now our new racial leader is the queen of lawful good

What freaks me out even more is rather than Blizz trying to get them away from Cult of Personalities, they seem to just be replacing a Dark Lady to worship … with a Light One (and neither of them are conceptually good representatives of the Forsaken people). What the hell is wrong with Blizzard that they would have Voss go full cultist over a Menethil that came out of nowhere (and knows absolutely NOTHING about the suffering of the Forsaken)?

Hm. So the Forsaken will be led by Calia.

That’ll go over well. Guess that shotguns the dream of Alliance light undead.

1.) Taunting us about replacing Gallywix with Gazlowe is just plain mean.
2.) Them making Calia the leader of the Forsaken is just jarring on so many levels.
3.) Blizzard must share their drugs with us.

Disappointingly, Tess does not become a worgen. Apparently Goldrinn convinces her not to.

She really should’ve, IMO. It would’ve made for a better story.

Don’t toy with me Blizzard, that storm drake mount has taunted me for months and I don’t know if I can trust you with reward systems anymore.

I don’t understand the appeal of Calia. She can’t use being undead to relate to her people because her condition is nowhere near the Forsaken. It’s like they took the curse part out of the curse of undeath.

I guess that means Genn will be sticking around a while longer.

The problem with clicking WoWhead links is that I can’t stop myself from reading the top few comments and… god, these people are stupid.

No, Vulpera aren’t going to get Demon Hunters.

So it seems Rokhan is going to be confirmed as Chieftain of the Darkspear and serve as the Darkspear Representative on the Horde Council.

Rokhan: Since da death of Vol’jin, da Darkspear been lookin’ ta me ta guide dem.
Rokhan: I been fightin’ for dem a long, long time… but dat don’t mean I deserve ta be deir chieftain.
Baine: I felt much the same when my father died. It happened suddenly, and I feared that I was unprepared to take his place.
Baine: But I was ready, just as you are. You proved that in Zuldazar and at Stromgarde. The Darkspear have faith in you, and so do I.
Rokhan: Heh. Ya best be stoppin’ da flattery, Baine, before it be goin’ ta me head.
Rokhan: But… da Darkspear do be needin’ a leader. A voice on da council. And if it gotta be me… den it be me.
Baine: Trust your judgment, Rokhan. It has led you this far.
Rokhan: It be havin’ a lotta help. From da Darkspear, from da loa… and from da Horde.

Well not really. I don’t think Tess being a worgen is actually a requirement to be the worgen racial leader. She’ll still inherent the throne of Gilneas with or without being a worgen.

It’s not a requirement, no, but I don’t think Blizz will make the worgen racial leader be a non-worgen.

So were helping Wrathion prevent prevent the resurrection of Onyxia and Nefarian.
