Its not their fault Amadis, that they have no self-control. Its others that should change in order to avoid triggering them.

What do you mean? Do you think I’m just trolling or what? I’m just very unhappy with the story in BfA and I want Blizz to address it in the future, is that really that intolerable ?

Wanting Blizzard to address things, but then taking every opportunity to say that they won’t (regardless of if they will or not) - and even ignoring anything good that the Night Elves have gotten - doesn’t help anyone, and frankly, is annoying.

I mean well, I was waiting very patiently without a single complaint until a while after they said that we got our revenge in 8.1.
What am I ignoring though? 8.1 was supposed to be THE revenge patch and all we got was to kill 1 Val’kyr while the Horde achieved all they wanted in Darkshore.
Something positive that could’ve happened is reclaiming Darkshore, but the quest on the PTR never made it to live, it got scrapped.
I’m negative because I’ve been around for long enough to see where this is going, and mostly because devs already confirmed that it’s over. I don’t know why it would bother you so much, it’s not like I’m the only one that is very disappointed with the Night Elf story in BfA.
If you’re this cynical and unhappy with how Blizzard is writing the Night Elves, why are you still playing? At the very least, venting on a forum bound to disagree with you doesn’t seem healthy.

The Cataclysm Kalimdor revamp, Mount Hyjal and the Molten Front and the Firelands, Night Elf presence in Pandaria, Val’sharah, the Emerald Nightmare/Dream, the Wardens (and, if one counts them, the Illidari), “Terror of Darkshore,” and even our presentation in the Darkshore Warfront Alliance side proper.
And yes, I understand that the Night Elf victories here weren’t shown in game by phasing or anything, but lore wise they were still victories.
I am also disappointed with BfA’s story. I too wish there had been more definitive victories for the Night Elves in their return to Darkshore and Ashenvale and beyond. I, too, honestly don’t expect much from Blizzard.
But posting over and over that you don’t believe it’ll ever happen doesn’t actually contribute to anything. At least be constructive with your complaints, and be realistic in knowing that posting here has very little likelihood in changing whatever work Blizzard has already done or is going to do.

We don’t get much of a story if the NPC’s solve all the problems and always do the right and smart choices, would we?

We haven’t gotten much story still. BfA was rather light on substance. On to the next expansion.

Maybe if they followed the instructions about not feeding them after midnight…

Oh? But after midnight is the best time to feed purple gremlims! I promise I will take them for a walk! 8)
Posting before the Night Fae/Ardenweald -one of 4 major factions whose aesthetic is pulled straight out of Moonglade/Dreamgrove/Val’shara and likely to be related to Druidism, Emerald Dream, Elune, Cenarius, Wild Gods, etc- are deemed to be insufficiently Night Elf related content.

Oh, I’m hyped for that, honestly. It certainly looks like we could be getting some great lore on not just night elf stuff, but tauren, wild god, loa, maybe even Elune as well.
Will any of it address what happened in BfA? I’d argue it is insufficient if it’s just fluff that doesn’t move things forward.

Well so far not a single hint about what’s next to come for night elves. Last chance would be tomorrow in the deep dive panel.
Cenarius was mentioned at least.

Face it. Night Elves are old news.
Your stuck in limbo with rest of us now and I bet Elune will be made to look out to be a fraud in the end. Accept it. Move on and check in about the Night Elves say…last raid phase of Shadowlands? Might come up again.
It will most likely move something forward…it just may not be the things you’re looking for.
It seems to be implied that’s the fate of everyone that doesn’t get a Naaru escort into Paradise or converted into a constellation. Night Elf, Forsaken, Human, the lot. In Outland the fate of orc spirits was to be consumed by the Dark Naaru in Osh’ungu.
