yes! this is perhaps one of the most concise summarisations of sylvanas iāve ever seen! sheās literally just blizzard marketing a character that is pretty much never shown, just repeated statements of āTHIS IS WHO SYLVANAS ISā and then they donāt show that. and i think the marketing is the real character sylvanas fans fell in love with, not the one thatās presented on-screen, in-game.

Ah, now I get to have a flashback to Blizzconline where they said they want to keep faction divides in the game so people have something to cheer over football team style at Blizzcon. Thanks for drudging up that repressed memory.

Oh man I have a whole goody bag of stories of half (give or take) of the player base being treated like absolute butt at a convention meant to celebrate everyone who played because Metzen and Samwise wanted to be heavy metal orcs more than slowly dying old humans.
Alliance themes are only good at Blizzcon when its sexy cosplay girls uwu step on me Tyrande cosplayer Iāve been a naughty troll er UH I M-MEAN FOR THE HORDE!

Yea but youāre not everyone so I dont know if this is a good blanket to give to others, as Iāve met plenty of people who get upset that I criticized their game and when it boiled down to it they assumed I was āmaking fun of themā by making fun of their game.
Obviously my statement isnāt always the case, but it would feel disingenuous to say it doesnāt apply to a lot of people since, at the end of the day, a lot of people care about things they like. Sometimes to an unhealthy degree.
It also doesnāt help that this game is actually 17 years old so there are people who quite literally grew up with it and probably consider it a core part of their identity forā¦ some reasonā¦

Hang on a second, I as 16 the first time I bought cigarettes.
Unless Iām remembering incorrectly, I was a stupid teenager back then so I might be misremembering.
I thought his fursona was heavy metal panda
my personal favorite ālove to hateā villain is Serena Joy Waterford, who is a critique on antifeminist women who use the platforms that feminism gives them to try to advocate for fewer rights for women, actually.
itās hilarious to see how she regrets so much but doesnāt have the self-awareness to realize she brought it upon herself and these are the leopards she asked to eat faces, now eating her face.
but idk if wow will ever have like. the braincells to write something as deeply ingrained in feminist critique as handmaidās tale. nor honestly would i even want them to try. just do a simple formula: give a villain a motivation and stick to it for one expac please.

The only character in WoW to my knowledge thatās ever brought up any feminism-related topic was Sylvanas in a novel, and Iām not convinced thatās not on purpose.
