Hopefully he can reign in a certain author. The new Alleria design stinks to holy hell of literally one specific twit pulling favors with her contacts, to convince the art team to alter a pre-existing character’s design in favor of a self-insert. It is in many ways, the same complaint many made with the whole Nathanos incident. But at least with Nathanos, the concept art looked decent. His character remained intact and thus it felt less like self-insert, and more like just coincidence.
Because of that, my ultimate hope is that the character actually ‘remains’ Alleria. By this I mean remains a mother figure to Arator who fights for a common good, and remembers also the past stories that have shaped said character. I hope she doesn’t suddenly 180 on past story ‘due to the Void’. By this I mean suddenly have a rabid hate fetish for Turalyon, just ‘because’ he is always repressing her ‘true self’ with all of his ‘old light energy’.
Or you know… Some other bullcrap that Alleria is magically, suddenly, tired of. Because! MEN BAD! Also hope she does not become a triggered and whiny monologuer the same as Sylvanas’ was reduced to, or I’ll just be doing the same thing I did with Sylvanas in BFA and mute every scene involving her.
