First of all ROTFL with the infinity story…
But what’s with Blizzard not finding middle ground? I would even be happy if we get something similar to WoTA dungeon when we fight some foes while they are in the background also fighting. It was nice seeing Malfurion holding the well of eternity from collapsing and Tyrande taking care of an endless army of demons.
That didn’t make me feel powerless, on the contraty, I felt more empowered by watching my heroes give their best.
Characters don’t need to solve our problems but we can use a divided front tactic where they handle something and task us with dealing with another threat. They get to display their powers and we deal with game mechanics and such.
Something like in WC3 when we hold off the Burning Legion long enough for Malfurion to finish summoning wisps to blow up Archimonde. That was a hell of a mission and to date remains one of the most epic quests in any game I’ve played.
