who betrayed and used them? another lordaerans? because arthas and his forces were lordaeran human, and they still allied with them.
is ok forsaken helped blood elves and try somehow to repair the damage they unconsciously did, same as orcs helped forsaken after the damage again they “unconsciously” did to lordaeron (ignoring nerzul were an orc too) but we gotta stop blamin all bad that happened to high elves to nowadays alliance.
The Illidari are viewed as monsters by t heir own kind. The Naga ARE monsters who hate all surface dwellers. The Lost Ones and Brokenaren’t in the neighborhood, and Akama isn’t doing so well these days, depending on which choice made in the DM Legion campaign is considered canon.
Doesn’t change the fact that its where the Blood Elves were by the end of WC3:TFT. Playable naga has been a request for some time. Even Broken Draenei were wanted as an Allied Race. Akama might not be doing well as of Legion, but back in BC that could’ve been a different story.
The point I’m making is, the Blood Elves already had allies, dependable allies, but Blizzard decided to make that faction a selection of raid bosses, rather than letting players continue the story from WC3:TFT. Blood Elves made perfect sense with Naga for allies, and the Broken made for an excellent addition.
Amusingly Hearthstone has lore for it Sylvanas had been born before the War of the Ancients she would have loyally served Azshara and would have become a Naga.
Did you see her dialogue in the Maldraxxus campaign? How she tells how she had her Night Elf form restored in the shadowlands but chose not to keep it?
In WoW? I don’t believe so? If they did, its some obscur NPC tucked away in some corner of vanilla WoW probably. Gets brought up about as much as Garithos does for Blood Elves in game, oddly.
Like Alliance is to blame for the internment camps or the sundering but really the people responsible are in the Horde so why is the Alliance catching this heat?
At least spread it out.
wait a few expansions for them to reveal the Ultra-Mega First Ones who were actually really we promise behind everything we swear this time we’re not just trying to one-up the last creative team!
But what about the super mega ultron cat god first ones, who created the second, third and fourth 1st ones who created the other Godzilla sized baby first ones.
((I can’t help gag at how ridiculous Shadowlands is from a narrative point of view))
the individual chunks were fun, but the thread tying them together was no good. It’s almost paradoxical to me- my favorite parts of Shadowlands were the ones that had nothing to do Azeroth, but at the same time I hated how much it felt disconnected to the world I already had emotional investment in.
