Jaina doesn't actually kill civilians in the Purge/Teleport them the Violet Hold

Most of the bad things are in the Alliance questline anyway.

Like being forced to take out shopkeepers who had nothing to do with the conflict overall. The quest itself even states, that the only reason you are sent to take them out, is because they chose not to side with the Silver Covenant, which in itself hints that they were not even involved with the Sunreavers and therefor not involved in the conflict at all.

No, its because it a freaking long questline and not to mention one actually has to level to even get the ability to open up the questline.

They were members of an organization that just gave a super weapon to a madman. There refusal to renounce allegiance seems reason enough to arrest them.

Veressa: Kill random shopkeepers because they are not ideologically pure enough for you

Also Veressa: “I can’t kill Garrosh, that would make me a murderer”

The dude was on trial as a prisoner who presumably could not escape. The entire event with the divine bell was a crisis. Granted, it could have been handled better but if you want someone to blame for it, Blame Garrosh.

Ultimately, she was rewarded for not killing Garrosh, by you know, not having her and her kids be killed by her crazy sister and becoming undead. I wonder if that little lore will be in Chronicles.


 While saying “While I can’t say I agree completely with Jaina’s methods, I do understand her motives. Sometimes, you have to fight back.” :laughing:

Apparently the “methods” Vereesa disagrees with are 
 teleporting civilians?

And then in Legion Vereesa probably proceeded to tell Alleria that she just does not understand why the Blood Elves would not come back to the Alliance!

Even funnier when you consider that the blood elves were gonna flip sides until she and Jaina went on a tear on mostly unaware magisters and shopkeepers.

A large part of that is your fault, idiot.

Seems like you don’t know English.

“Your quarrel is with me” doesn’t mean “I am guilty”. It just means “Your quarrel is with me so attack only me.”

Oh I can’t wait for all these Hordies’ reaction to Chronicles IV. :smile:

For my part, the same reaction I had to Chronicles 1.

“The squishy lore in this book Retconned one thing, and will likely be retconned later, if it is inconvenient.”

Even Blizzard went out of their way to say the Chronicles series is a matter of perspective. To give themselves wiggle room. Jaina’s perspective is clearly different than some of the Sunreavers.

Let’s wait for Chronicle IV to know the truth on the matter.

When i did this story in 2019, what i saw was Jaine randomly teleporting or killing on sight.

Honestly i prefer this version of the story with Jaina going on a rampage over a betrayal - and after Theramore on top of that.
It’s more realistic than just “sparring” everyone.

MoP Remix was a mistake.

I hated MoP for a lot of reasons. It just didn’t interest me
 out right repulsed me. I was unsubscribed for that expac longer than any other expac.

But I can see that other people liked it. Why would anyone go back? That isn’t for me to suss out, let the bean counters at Blizz do that. I can just stay away.

As much as MoP remix is not my cup of tea, and I have nothing but contempt for it
 other people are using it. What’s done is done. If people are playing it, may they find their goals.

Blizzard would have to give out 10,000 Traders Tenders for reaching level 20 or something to get me to go back.

I know it’s old comment, but in retrospect this is just sad.
You’d think that this event should’ve made Thrall re-evaluate his relationships, but fast forward to BfA and then TWW and Thrall is totally cool with Jaina, aiding her whenever he can and even fighting fellow Horde if the situation calls for that.

He was quick to go to aid her, after she raided Zandalar. :F
Everyone is acting as if nothing happened.

yes yes, we get it. Jaina(and all of the Alliance, but Jaina in particular) is perfect and flawless and justified in literally every single thing she has ever done in life ever.

did we REALLY need another thread about it?

So like 
do people feel genuine guilt over the faction/race they pick?
Alternatively do they actually belive other people are bad for the faction/race they pick?

I mean either one is bonkers.

It’s actually necro’ed old thread. But ye, everyone can see the writing on the wall, and the reason why some hardcore Alliance players act like that is becuase Blizzard is assuring them in this opinion.

oh, i see.

They got tusks dont they?

I don’t, but sometimes I swear Blizzard is trying to make me have that feeling.

No, I and others do get genuinely angry with how blizz keeps mishandling our fav race(s) or faction. In my case the worgen.

But I don’t think most people actually regret the race or faction they picked. We all picked our sides for a specific reason after all
