is like every person should be a flawless leader that makes always the perfect choices and not having any sort of emotion.
i don’t know about you but i believe in character flaws. and i take it as such.
but she does help the alliance.
i mean, she tells u that maybe dalaran can have belfs and helfs in the same city and as such they could co-exist.
But then with the divine bell the threat is presented, as the kirin tor she wanted to keep the threat away from garrosh who has been weaponizing and proving himself as a world threat.
She wasn’t trying to use it to weaponize it, but rather keep it away from garrosh, mantaining neutrality was literally impossible.
if anything the purge of dala was incredibly well-written.
playing with flaws and perspectives.
Like i said, i don’t deny that she recieved bad writting, but so did pretty much every other wow character and ESPECIALLY those involved in the faction war.
(Like tyrande,sadly)
Well, you see, blizzard wrote these kinda of things this way because they want these discussions.
one of the reasons why faction war is garbage is precicely because of these things that usually led to bad writting because blizzard doesn’t do it right. they rather want it to write stuff in an ambiguous way.
i think that is why veloran is confused on who started the damn war (garrosh attacking nelfs) so he tries to justify as hard as possible the horde,maybe in part because he, as many others are frustrated how the writters turns the horde into bad guys.
and thats is more bad writting.
if you are playing the cata era, you will see these plot points are all over the place because “this is a gray conflict and as such, neither side is good or evil” but they clearly have proven that they can’t write stuff like that.
so when we have chronicles actually having a better explanation it feels like “it is a retcon that favors the alliance and put the horde in a bad light” and as such “the alliance are the writters pet”.
That is probably why the faction war stories are such a confused mess that ruins stories and characters just look at the bfa storyline.
That doesn’t happen when we deal with the usual bad guys.
We don’t have much discussions explaining the actions of, lets say arthas, we know why he purged stratolme,we know why kil jaeden corrupted the orcs, we know why the draenie were chased like rats. ect.
