Does Anybody feel kind of bad for Guldan?

Because I think Arthas was born into privilege and wealth, was beloved by his teacher, family, and friends, was consistently given good advice, and ignored it at every turn.

I think Arthas has a great story. But he was a privileged, healthy, wealthy prince. Guldan was a literal pauper with a bone disease and nobody on his side.

No excuses, live right or get left.

Okay, that’s actually a really good point.
I used to like Arthas a lot (until Twitter yelled at me for it)

I like arthas too. But I like him as a villain. Not as #goals.

I think people forget that he was, uh, horrible despite being a fascinating character.

There are people in real life, famous now but dead so they get holidays named after them, that were pretty much this.

Gul’dan, Garrosh, so many ingame were catalysts. All began by trying to defend the Horde, their family after all.

Of course.
I think this is where the confusion comes from people think that if you like the bad guy in a story that means you want to be them.
The whole empathy vs sympathy thing.

his WoD version was the last good character in the franchise.

But he didn’t do anything wrong.

I’m a little more optimistic. I liked Talanji and Flynn Fairwind a whole lot. I also really like what they’re doing to develop the dragons this expansion. Big fan of Sindragosa’s simulacrum especially.

Yup, did I say I was

The elements also left him on read. That was another big part of it

  1. Get put in the fel kiln anyway.
  2. Be used as an anima battery in the maw.

Apparently Gul’dan had 20/20 future vision.

Honestly,I do feel for him through all his struggles he turned to evil but isn’t that how things turn when a person is at his last stage?

I would hope one day we see such a struggle turn to good but this is World of Warcraft . What story would be good in the end without a twist.

So it’s become a dad joke thread? Here’s one:

Answer

Nothing. You can’t cross a vector with a scalar.

Guldan died before the anima draught.

He’d have been kicking it in Maldraxus.

Souls being used by the Legion doesn’t really make sense anymore after Shadowlands. That’s the problem with trying to go too deep into the nonsensical narrative that the dung writing team has delivered.

I stand by my original post. Guldan’s actions literally killed any chance of him ever being a sympathic character from any sane perspective.

I wouldn’t change the story here. I think it’s good as is.
