It sounds like you ARE sure what I think changed. I was sold on this franchise with edgy garbage, and I want my edgy garbage back. It used to be metal, now it’s lame.
I try to forget about green Jesus. Thrall’s character has been butchered pretty badly since WC3.
true. horde was literally like the cover of a heavy-metal album. i mean, can you picture it? orcs and goblins on hotrods, painted-up with flames, trolls holding shrunken heads, blood elf men and women wearing collars and leashes in skimpy silvery outfits, angry pandaren monks, fangs-bared breathing fire- it was pretty-darn metal.
It went from: “Edgy is bad, be a good person” to “EDGY ALL THE TIME” to “Edgy is bad be a good person”.
You want a return to Legion through Shadowlands writing?
Because If you think Cata and MoP’s writing wasn’t a direct attack on the “I LIKE BEING EDGY” archetype where we literally kill all the edgy characters, I think you missed something.
Vanilla to TBC was about as unplanned as a story could get. TBC didn’t even have a plot or narrative. It was just a boss rush.
Wrath was “edgy” but only Arthas got to be a character and even then his character is questionable at best.
I think this extends from beijg disingeous. You think leveling in bfa (soon dragonlands) is awful when its not. Bfa wasnt even that bad. The first season was a little rough and s4 was wild kn purpose. But was still fun. S2 and s3 were perfectly good.
There are many people that wa t to play it. The other mmos also dont hit and feel as good as wow imo. Ive played most of them. And i would orefer an action oriented combat system. But none of them feel that good
