I was very impressed by Blizzard releasing a new spec for Evoker and even had a chuckle at the expense of DH’s. But then I saw the new races getting Warlock, after yammering how Night Elf Warlocks made no sense. And bam, a whole smorgasbord of Warlocks that dont make any sense.
For some it’s a big deal and for some it’s not. I get having game play being important, but let’s put it into context.
How many kinds of media or adaptations have you seen that was over your favorite book or game and it was absolutely butchered. That’s kind of how it feels to us who follow the lore and story.
My thought was so long as it makes sense then they should add the race/class combo. I have zero faith that Blizzard is going to somehow make this make sense.
yeah can’t wait to see what the narrative team does to create lore for night elf warlocks…i guess it’s not okay to have different cultures and values amongst the races in this fantasy world…
Blizzard doesnt care, they will continue to destroy the lore and all that will be left is a repetitive gameplay loop of slog grinds and overloaded instances.
Good luck for them, if it continue this path wow wont be having much more of a lifetime.
Sl already killed of people’s goodwill, they should be working to recover it not make it worse.
This is all under the presumption that these new combinations will not be explained through the lore and story, or in your last instance that it will not be handled well enough…
Easy. Demon Hunters arent part of the Kaldorei. They are part of the Illidari.
So does that mean all of a sudden there is an entire society/organization similar to the Illidari that would explain Night Elf Warlocks? Let alone Draenei or Mag’har???
This has gone from ‘I know man but you gotta get over it.’
Then it went to ‘OK well now you’re just spamming but I get it you’re upset.’
Now it’s ‘holy crap put on your big boy pants and deal… Or at the very least discuss it in one of the other 5 topics.’ Spam will not result in an illusion that more people are upset about this than there are
Im in a weird position where on one hand every race should be able to be a warlock, because in a literal sense any individual could use fel magic. So races like kul tiran and zandalari getting warlock is very easy for me to accept!
But then theres draenei and LF draenei. If fel is taboo for all races, draenei have it as triple double kick flip taboo, quite frankly I think there’s an argument that draenei would kill any draenei they saw using fel, in the belief they are eredar.
Even if blizz manages to somehow manage explaining that, I find it near impossible to believe LF draenei could even physically use fel, and thats before the complete Tony Hawk pro skater 2 of taboo that would have.
And of course mag’har, thats gunna be a fun explanation.
With all that being said, give HM tauren warlocks the feltotem horn options, please blizzard I need this.
