But Blizzard really over estimated sylvanas simps

What loyalists? There are no loyalists in shadowlands.

Blizz has specifically stated there are no more Sylvanas loyalists in Shadowlands. You guys couldnt take the hint so Blizz has simply removed the option.

Just think of it this way. You are doing him a solid by giving him a one way ticket to the maw and his beloved Dark Lady.

Think of it like this: Sylvanas wants him to command her forces in the Shadowlands, but doesn’t want to pay to get him a ticket to the Shadowlands, so you’re getting him there for free.

I am a loyalist too, it is prety lame, but its a lvl71 item for my poor geared alts…
waiting the day we could kill Tyrande.

Edit: it is a lvl 115 weapon.

The Loyalist line was an afterthought and was never meant to be part of the story originally. Welcome to the on the rail storytelling that forced my Tauren Druid to be complicit in Teldrassil if I wanted to experience the pre patch for BfA.

Oh, you don’t visit Org very much, eh? They’re getting marched around in chains, something Sylvanas warned us about.

Unfortunately this is a standard of Blizzard storytelling. I can’t count the times I’ve done a quest where I have to pause and say/think “My character would not be doing this.” Usually in my case it’s something “lawful” or “good.” I’d much rather just stab them and take their stuff.

The Loyalist line was a silly illusion of choice, very similar to how the old Telltale games used to pretend your choices mattered. But trying to program the game for multiple choices is too much work, so they’d rather fluff players up with different phrases and words for the same exact occurrence, then convene the stories together at the end no matter what you chose. I would love the option to be villainous as much as I would love the option of actually being a real hero. Instead, we get neither, and everyone suffers for it.

Speaking of, was there ever pay off for keeping N’Zoth’s eye crown or is that yet another “choice”?

It doesn’t matter anyway because -cutscene-!

Which is too long for his respawn timer, so you’re getting chomped as you come back from watching it.
