Well it they can change Spiders into crabs, here to hoping that they can change fluffy, cute, pink, magical girl fox mounts into hideous snaggletoothed beasts drooling blood and fel-spittle everywhere…

I don’t think it really needs to be FULL-BLOWN dark like “Lords of the Fallen” but definitely a little more serious. WoW always had some comic relief, but I feel like its over the top these days. Too many Goober enemies too: goblins, gnolls, kabolds. Back in Vanilla, they were heavily made fun of but gnomes still were displayed as a serious part of the world.

We need the old dark and gritty wow back.
I haven’t done a poop quest in way too long.
If your poop is too dark that can be due to diet. If it’s gritty, wow, I’m sorry, man.

it has to do with the sterilization of all media. we cant possibly offend suburban white women so we have to appease them with bland, uninspired fictional media, so they wont go ballistic on social media.

Males are the ones who tend to whine the loudest when they don’t get what they want in video games though. Ironic. Women have been playing games for decades and we never do the amount of screeching male gamers do. Over -everything- in games. Including if it’s not edgy enough for them, and if female characters exist, and ESPECIALLY if female characters exist they aren’t attracted to.
If you want serious fiction. try a book. It would probably help with that sexism you just displayed.

I think it’s obvious to me the culture of people enthusiastically using such a tool and how there’s a straight line between this culture and body type 1/2 implementation.
If you can’t, that’s fine - but I suspect you’re just choosing not to admit it.
As my posts on the topic are being flagged and removed, I am just going to move on.

Fair enough. Not by me, however. I’m sorry others are wishing to stifle this.
Probably for the best.

Have you done the quest in Azj’kahet where a forsaken is being eaten alive (well, “alive”) by spiderlings inside his skull and asks you to help kill the ones who laid them?

Damn that last pic is super hot, not going to lie. What’s his name?
There are some very dark elements sprinkled in through the side quests that can be easily missed or skipped over. I am a completionist so I tend to find the lil chunks of goodness in the roughage, like finding the bacon bits in your salad.

Incorrect, folks loved the environments, particularly Revendreth and Maldraxxus… people hated the massive retcons to shoehorn the jailer into everything…

The expansion literally starts off with Xal’atath attacking Dalaran via the Nerubians and then blowing it up causing all kinds of chaos. Khadgar almost died(But as far as we knew it seemed like he was dead). Anduin has given up on himself(People like to moan about him but males have emotions just like anyone else.
Magni was struggling with his role as Azeroth’s speaker and he gets be with his family in a much more natural way and without being all crystaline. The Nerubians are waging war on the Earthen via Xal’atath, causing havoc. Isle of Dorn may look pretty and different then Shadowlands but I think people bright colors for not being dark.
Also, one of the very first Earthen ends up dying for his cause to fight the Nerubians near the Meadery. He even has some character development at the end, but still dies.
Theres a giant crystal looking thing in Hallowfall that turns into purpleish void leaving the Hallowfall people vulnerable and well the Nerubians are also attacking them, killing their people, along with other problems. Anduin is slightly regaining his faith in himself(Which shouldn’t of been gone in the first place but I digress). The Anduin hate is really odd, he’s not supposed to be Varian Wrynn 2.0, never was.
Oh and Az’kahet New queen who literally sided with Xal’atath and turned her own mother into a monster via experiment and black blood.

Oh and those mummified earthen/ Hallowfall people who can still feel whats happening at least before they turn into complete puppets? There’s a lot of creepy stuff going on down there.
The creepy area where the Black blood is ominous. During that whole escapade in there Alleria is dead set on avenging Khadgar almost letting the whispers just take over(At some point its going to happen so that tension is there).
Oh and Xal’atath in a later questline almost sucks up all the void energy into the Dark Heart. Khadgar ends up being alive somehow sort of one of the few saving graces in this story. Anduin regains his Light abilities. So its not all doom and gloom(And it shouldn’t for obvious reasons).
Its really not all “Friends and fuzzy feelings”
Does that strike you and fuzzy feelings? Nah I don’t think so(Worst case scenario is you’re trolling).

You listed some indeed darker moments in TWW, but you also listed alot of the crap moments too. So I am not sure where you actually stand.
Its not too(Since you asked) “fuzzy and friendly” If anything its an improvement from Dragonflight. Tone isn’t something I take issue with in the story. Its usually very specific story directions. Or just the whole concept of them(See the Hallowfall people) but still entertained.
