Horde favoritism is ruining WOW

So you know for an absolute fact that (low balling here) that all, every developers (evey single one, this includes the other 75-100+ devs that we dont know) are confirmed horde mains with irrefutable facts?

There are interviews and even Forbes articles about it. The sad thing is it isn’t even like they are trying hard to conceal it. As a player it’s an annoyance and kind of frustrating. As a stock holder it’s infuriating because I see it as a glorious failure in senior management at Bliz/Act. The Dev team and the marketing department should be seriously shakin up in my opinion. Also yes you have your proof stop being arrogant and thinking everything is just fine when you have thousands of alliance players saying. No it isn’t

See, this is how you get suspended.

So you can name one guy, the game director. I already asked you to name someone other than the game director but you can’t. So gg on your wild claims with no factual basis.

See this is how you prove my point you’ve lost the argument and now resort to threats. Also you were the instigator in this not me. So think about that

So. These interviews you keep claiming include the (low balling here) the names of these 75-100+ unknow devs with confirmed citations to them being all horde mains?

Cause the Forbes and YouTube video interviews you keep stating is absolute. The end all be all
 are just those specific devs stating a minor detail that they themselves are horde mains and give no indicationthat the entirety of the development teams are all horde mains.

So. Try again bucky boo.

He doesn’t, he literally cannot name one developer besides the game director, which is common knowledge, who plays Horde. It’s just more outrage with nothing to back it up.

Translation: I lost the argument now let’s move the goal post and say I want more proof. You’ve lost the debate.

Nah. You lost from your very first unproven claim.
You don’t know who ALL the devs are, you can’t know what factions they play.

That’s not the translation. You’re screaming some wild claim that:

but you can’t throw out one single name besides the game director. Not one single name and you claim there is a whole guild. lol

Unbelievably amazing.

Junkgnomes to the Alliance make the horde players interested in the alliance??

It will be just the opposite!
No horde player will leave the horde because of junkgnomes.
No Ally player will stay at ally because of Junkgnomes.

The junkgnome races will not influence any change in favor of the alliance, because the devs chose a race with very little charisma from the horde and alliance public, when they should have done it with some new race.

And it’s doomed to failure, simply because Blizzard is going in the opposite direction of Alliance interests.

They just don’t know what to offer ally, something that is also interesting to the horde, so they offered something that is interesting to both the horde and ally, like vulperas!

Of course, it would make the alliance feel trolled by the devs, the Horde receiving a new and popular race ( Vulperas), and the Ally receiving junkgnomes, which in both the Ally and the Horde are not popular and giving them appealing racials, it just seems a mother trying to make her son swallow a bitter medicine with an ice cream spoon as a bribe.

As soon as blizzard releases the creation of vulperas, I will move to the horde, because junkgnomes don’t interest me.

This failed to bond with alliance players, for using obscene racials on something that even the horde has no interest in, assuming that they will abandon their bonds with their orcs, trolls and blood elves, because of a gnome son of a toaster.

I’m sick of things made to ridicule the alliance, like void blood elves, kultiras and their protruding navels, and now a doubly recycled race. where no transmog looks good!

I can see it now, random dev thinks to herself, “Just how creative can I get today in ridiculing the wimpy alliance faction? We all just sit here in our Horde t-shirts dreaming of ways to make alliance players sad.” Random dev rubs her hands together in glee and yell out to her colleagues, “I’ve got yet another great idea that will be sure to make alliance players quit the game!”

Even more to the point:

They gave Horde Mercenary que to play as Alliance in BGs because the faction is heavily over-populated. Instead of letting them sit on that and being part of their decision to play an overpopulated faction, they gave Horde the ability to bypass it altogether.

They didn’t even give Alliance an option to que up as Horde last time I checked.

Both factions have mercenary mode if the amount of players queuing calls for it. It’s a nasty thing
though. I dont’ think they should have put it in, but there must be a lot of people who choose it. I’d say most people just aren’t concerned that they’re fighting against their own faction. They’re more concerned with getting honor, etc.

Who cares if most of the top tier raiding guilds are horde . They still make up a small minority of the player base .

People are so worried about the 1 % in the game that they don’t take time to enjoy all the stuff the remaining 99% of us have.

Most of the complaints I see are about how much better horde racials are compared to alliance racials. Guess what your average player doesn’t care .

We are here to play and enjoy a game. The only ones that care are those with elitist attitudes that want to be part of the big boys club ( top tier mythic raiders)

I’m not going to dip to far into the whole bias debate on this thread
because the hyperbole seems wish wash from blue to red in extremes with the forums. I would agree with you in part but the sad fact is top endgame 1% has had and does have a effect on the greater population movements
general faction changing, economy, general recruiting and even first impressions of new players joining who may or may not one day advance to endgame. If it didn’t it would fine since most of the debates would be moot, but players have been seeing short and long term effects on a personal basis.

I believe you were in my raider io post a while back. If not I love Mythic+, I personally hate sport’s and don’t watch them. But the MDI is so more watchable than the PvP competitions are. Even with some reasonable knowledge of dungeons and you can watch the MDI and get it. Everytime I watch the MDI I always mutter to myself “I didn’t know you could do that”

It’s pretty fun to watch

I find it hard to believe anyone could take your pov seriously. Are you just joking I hope?

This is something that astonishes me. The faction imbalance effects the top end players, most players who complain about this aren’t effected at all by the faction imbalance. LFR players, normal raiders, heroic raiders, and guilds who do the first 3-4 bosses on mythic difficulty within the first 6 months of the tier are not effected by this faction imbalance no matter how hard they wanna think they are.
