Okay, you're just a blatant liar. Congrats. Forsaken "story" was dropped after the initial content after the Wrathgate. Everything after that is basically "Alliance of super justice and goodness".
Arthas is more tied to the Forsaken than Stormwind, none of that is a lie. And the Story of Sylvanas continued up to the last 3 ICC instances. The final attack was made by a neutral party. Sure pretend that because Tirion is human he's automatically Alliance.
Ah, yes, the baseless and made up fanon that liars like you spout to validate your constant pity party of how poor and "mistreated" you are, while you get all of the heroics, all of the character developments, and all of the actual faction pride.

Faction Bias At Blizzard ā 3:24:50
Sure, call the Dev a liar then. That's a developer's words, not mine.
Blatant lies. They didn't even use Thrall, or any of the big racial leaders, until mid-Wrath. No one was "sick" of Thrall, certainly not during Wrath or before that. Thrall was practically worshipped by Horde players back then. People don't like "Go'el" because they ruined a perfectly good character just for "change".
So, yeah, you're talking from your butt.
I'm talking about Cataclysm, it's literally written on the post.
Really? !@#$ing REALLY? This is the depth of fail you will dredge up to whine? Pathetic. The Horde was given that zone to make up for the questing imbalance that the Horde had suffered from the Alliance loving devs.
Alliance never got anything like that, not even close and you can't even come up with an example.
Gee, so you got a taste of what the Horde had already been beaten with, and threw a childish temper tantrum over it? Shoe's on the other foot, time for your medicine.
The Horde was never underdeveloped to that point and there's no proof of that, even saying that Vanilla was "better for the Alliance" Both got pretty much the same amount of content, horde's was just more repetitive.
You mean where the Horde lost all sense of pride in itself? I don't see you Alliance players losing characters or suffering an identity crisis. Until then, Alliance have nothing to complain about. Ever.
The entire expac was based about "what's the horde identity?" and answering that question, not my fault you can't understand the narrative. As for characters, I already talked about that up there.
They cut that because Alliance players, like you, threw a tantrum because you didn't want to be lead by a Human. Especially after the Tyrande scenario.
The Tyrande scenario was part of it lol, they couldn't have cut that after that because that's the only thing they developed (alongside blood in the snow) and released. Had nothing to do with Alliance players complainig but fleshing out the Horde content so they just gave us a cat.
I really want to know what you are smoking to get to this conclusion. The Alliance got their usual storyline of being the good guys of pureness and light and the Horde got turned into evil monsters for the glorious Human Alliance to destroy for "justice".
The Horde got nothing out of the Siege but the destruction of our entire identity, meanwhile the Alliance got their power bolstered and got to put the Horde on a leash.
On a leash you say? funny how being on a leash didn't stop the Horde from attacking us in WoD and BFA anyway.
Either you get the moral high ground, or you get cool mounts. It's a trade off.
False equivalencies don't help your "argument".
You left out how Horde players got kicked in the junk storywise by forcing us into being "villains" for an Alliance-centric storyline. Again. We deserve a little compensation for Legion and having our image and characters slaughtered to prop up Alliance fist-pump moments.
Right, because the Alliance doesn't deserve anything after one of our races literally disappeared. How ridiculous.
"Everything is biased, everything is Horde, and you have to point it all out!"
And you can't even answer that.
Gee, it's almost like they are making the villains win a slew of early victories, in order to make the Alliance win utterly in the end. Just like with MoP.
And just like with MoP the Alliance will just "forgive" the Horde and get nothing you mean. The one thing we got, Dalaran, was returned to Neutral by legion, how laughable.
I'm a Nightborne.
I'm a draenei.
We also had far less characters to begin with. It's why killing so many Horde characters hurts far more: they never develop new Horde characters or leaders, and only ever develop Alliance characters.
Oh please Horde came out of warcraft III with all their roster directly into WoW. Stormwind was not even the humans we met back then, high elves got turned horde and Dwarves didn't get Muradin until Wrath. Meanwhile alliance related characters just become neutral like Khadgar or Illidan.
Horde always got more significant characters Blizzard just abandoned them to further Garrosh/Sylvanas/Thrall plot.
Thrall, Vol'jin, Cairne, Rexxar, Sylvanas, Varimathras, Baine were all in Vanilla while Alliance had Jaina and Tyrande.
It's really pathetic that they had to kill Vol'jin just to be able to "use" him as a character. Nazgrim is neutral.
Furthering Sylvanas' plot.
Good. The Alliance deserved to lose some characters, for once, considering the massive Alliance character bloat that has existed since Vanilla.
Not Alliance fault our characters are just inherently more interesting.
