During my time away the thread where I made this statement originally fell in obscurity. But the message still needs to ring. If you’re a fan of Night Elves and are, overly justified in being, unsatisfied with the sorry excuse we got for a story arc in BfA and aren’t even getting a cathartic or solacistic ending to in 8.3 or Shadowlands? Then don’t pre-order. Don’t buy. It’s your money and when you hand it over to them anyway you’re telling them that you’re okay with being served garbage. There are other games you can play with your friends. There are other games you can play while they’re raiding.
Personally I picked Conan Exiles back up and I couldn’t be happier.
You, my brothers and sisters, deserve to be happy too.
No in fact I dreaded it happening when Thrall mentioned it. I’d be happy if I got an Alliance exclusive lengthy quest chain where I get to fight beside Tyrande and the other prominent Night Elves in cutting a swath of destruction through the Horde in Darkshore and Ashenvale ending in the complete retaking of both zones entirely.
As well as a parallel set of quests for Forsaken in retaking Tirisfal and making the Undercity inhabitable, for a Forsaken, again.
Im pretty happy, Sylvanas has been proven to the witch she always was and I expect sooner or later the night elves will get a new home that is better than Teldrassil. It is a common ploy for Blizzard to rebuild/replace things people like.
We both know that’s never going to happen…like at all…ever. Cannonically Ashenvale and Darkshore are both won by the Kaldorei anyway, they just need to hand them back to them officially. But that’s unlikely, Darkshores a Warfront now and I don’t see them changing that anytime soon and Ashenvale has been in a akward state since Cata/MoP.
Pretty sure we had two threads on this very subject going on for ages; and the last of them finally died out about two weeks ago because there was nothing left to discuss. The topic had been drawn out to death, to the point where 90 percent of the comments on those threads were just the same old arguments these subs degrade into.
This isn’t a cause that needs to continue being championed OP. People will buy what they want to buy, and will not buy what they don’t.
It’s not just him. As far as I can tell, this forum exists so that people who loathe World of Warcraft have a place to complain endlessly about World of Warcraft.
Personally, I am an Alliance fans which means I generally want to see the Alliance, every one of its races, suceeded. Admittely night elves fans are ticking me off more than ever.
I give it two or three expansions from now tops.
While pre-orders are a gamble, with WoW you have a general idea of what to expect. Especiallly pve side. You know you will quest, you know if you want to raid/do dungeons you will either heal, tank or dps. If those two main concept dont bore you then your probably pretty safe with buying the next expact
