Damn, what happened to Sylvanas?

The bottom line always has been, is, and always will be that Blizzard doesn’t employ talented writers. Blizzard’s writers can create material that excites and intrigues - but coming up with a unique character identity or lore tidbit is the easy part - the hard part is maintaining logical consistency and the sense of verisimilitude in the face of constant new additions and an endlessly expanding universe.

Blizzard’s writing has less narrative consistency than the Loony Tunes.

The alternative is that Blizzard has good writers, but prevents them from effectively doing their job. Either way leads to the same outcome - just don’t take WoW lore seriously.

No, Anduin himself tells you to attack if it’s necessary. The other admiral is known to be a horde-hating warmonger, she hates the Horde because her family lived in Southshore. Anyway she tells you she ordered the attack because it seemed like the best way instead of waiting for backup.

They need to stop faction war stories because they all suck and all the characters get turned into morons.

Curious, someone should tell that to Illidan.
