I Can't Believe Sylvanas Was The Last Person to speak in that Cinematic

The cinematic was going so well and then it just fell flat on it’s face…

First off, Arthas doesn’t even get a character model? I understand the “lore” reason but seriously? He’s just an anima orb that you’re gonna deposit in the covenant bank.

And then the worst part is that Sylvanas is the ONLY person to have a full statement about Arthas. A dude that she only met rather briefly in Warcraft 3 and throughout WOTLK. Uther his mentor, nothing. Jaina his lifelong love interest, nothing…

Sylvanas has taken up so much screen time and writing since Legion that every other character in WoW has suffered for it.

I really hope the next expansion returns to simpler roots as far as storytelling is concerned because this Cosmic Game of Thrones Infinity War storyline really isn’t doing WoW any favors.

If this is the height of their writing prowess, I don’t want them to make another one.

But it gets so much worse when Pelagos enters the chat…

This is a Sylvannas redemption expansion after all. She even talks a lot in the reforging of the helm of domination most of the cutscene.
