Obesity, Heart Disease, Cancer, etc

Does disease even exist in the Warcraft universe? All we ever seen is people dying to enemies but never to a fatal disease.

Obesity is seen in Kul Tiran Humans but are they affected by heart disease? Also I don’t think any character in this game has been diagnosed with Cancer, does magic have a cure for it?

It’s a magical world so many things that would ail us IRL can be cured off.

KT aren’t obese, they’re just bigger framed.

It’s possible to be that size and actually be healthy.

Also, Talonel’s going to reply on one of his alts. This’ll be good.

You’re forgetting to cite all of the defensive linemen that are that size

The game is an escape. Why would we want to put these things in the game?

When have you ever seen a corn syrup or processed food factory, or even a farm where animals are injected with a bunch of hormones or “vaccines”?

You haven’t, and that’s why.

I mean people can cure diseases with magic so I’d imagine it’s a much lower rate of deaths.

What does seem to be the big killer is an end of the world type event every few years. There’s got to be a goblin pharmacist making BANK off of anxiety meds

If there is no disease in the game, then why do we have this?

My god it’s a game. If you want all those diseases etc., read the news. We don’t need that in a game.

Sorry, are they American football positions?

I’m an Aussielander.

Yes. And there’s rugby players nearly that big too.

The bait… moderately above generic quality. Will continue to get decent amount of bites for a Sunday Thread.

The Hakkari blood plague bug is arguably WoW’s brush with a pandemic.

The lich king was kind of disappointed when he rezzed me. He thought I died a great hero to the horde but it was just diabeetus.

Absolutely there is.

In the 90’s there was a NZ player named Jonah Lomu. He was 6ft 4 (I think), 118kg, and could do 100m in 11 seconds.

He was a nightmare to defend when he was at full tilt.

He passed away due to kidney issues I think. RIP big man

Nope, I don’t think real life transferred that well into the fake fantasy world of WoW.

I knew it was bait but gave the OP a nibble anyway because there was some effort put into it.
