“Thank you Blizzard for shoving a narrative no one wanted in the first place”. I get your anti undead/Sylvanas/whatever, but did it ever occur to you the players who enjoy said narrative didn’t want BfA in the first place? Nor Sylvanas as Warchief as written in Legion?

The homeland that is covered in green blight and looks awful for no reason at all. Their leadership lead to the Undercity being destroyed. Great job Forsaken.
I’m not deciding anything. Just as those who prefer Sylvanas don’t get to decide anything and their judgments upon those who dislike Sylvanas and who want to rebel against her mean nothing. That’s their opinion. Thank goodness it isn’t forced on us by the game though.
As an avid Forsaken fan and roleplayer, I must admit that the current presentation of the Horde and the Forsaken is not how I would have liked to have played them, so yeah. You can enjoy something without enjoying how it is right now.

Who is “no one”?
A generalization, you failed to addressed my point. I asked did it occur to you that the narrative you’re apparently enjoying and thanking Blizzard for is a narrative that a vast majority of people didn’t need? We didn’t need Teldrassil burning, Sylvanas as Warchief, or Vol’jin dying. Hell, we didn’t need Garrosh getting villainbatted either.
Your description of “phony Warchief” rings hollow when most people who enjoy said “phony Warchief” didn’t want her as Warchief in the first place.

Eight days ago you made a topic saying the story was hype with the same reasoning used in this OP. Ten days ago, same thing but more focused on Baine. Further back you have more topics saying Baine is the best and that Sylvanas should be killed, either by players or Azshara or whatever.
Of course, most of your topic history is actually just making threads simultaneously saying the Horde has an unfair advantage in PVP on maps like AV and that they don’t even need to try to win, and also that the Horde is absolute garbage at PVP and can never win any battlegrounds and deserve to get camped in war mode, and that the Alliance needs PVP racial buffs.

Would you prefer me making another post out of dozens of why Baine is bad and opposing Sylvanas is “treason”? And complaining that I have to kill Sunreavers? I genuinely like the direction the story is going with Thrall, Baine and Saurfang and I’m using the story forums to express my thoughts on it as that’s the purpose of them. Is forum posts only okay as long as you agree with it?
I don’t think anything you say is even slightly genuine. The vast majority of your posts and topics are trolling, including this one, because you know exactly what kind of reaction people will have to doing something as ridiculous as thanking Blizzard for the story.

That’s on you then. Not everyone agrees with you. That’s how the world works. Not everything that disagrees with you is “trolling” and some people like the direction Blizzard is taking the story when it comes to the Sylvanas plot and removing her. It’s great seeing Thrall back.
I didn’t address it because you didn’t have a point to address. I don’t know who “no one” and the “vast majority” is.

I did have a point, again it’s the question I asked you. The population sample I use is irrelevant as it’s not even important to the question I’m asking. Again, did it ever occur to you that there exists players our there that didn’t ask for this narrative in the first place? Did it occur to you that the current state of affairs regarding “phony Warchief” or what have you is an artificial product of Blizzard itself?
And also again, the “phony Warchief” claim rings hollow as, again I tell you, people who tend to enjoy Sylvanas/Forsaken or what have you never wanted her as Warchief in the first place.

Did it occur to you that there exists players who are interested in how this narrative plays out? And who are quite fond of what has been revealed in the plot moving forward in 8.2?

You don’t answer a question with a question. But to play along, yes I am aware. I’m also aware that certain aspects such as a well-written Baine or Thrall’s return needn’t have come at the expense of the playerbase and/or a repeat of a civil war plotline within the Horde.

Sorry, it looks more like you’re wearing an orc Halloween costume than actually playing an orc. There a male human paladin under there. Come on out, everyone already knows your as Alliance as it gets.

But that’s what they wrote and instead of fishing for likes by making another thread of why I think it’s bad and how much I hate the Horde fighting itself in the World of WARcraft, I’m actually interested to how it plays out and how the Horde manages to fix itself by removing Sylvanas from Warchief and where it goes from there.
The only Paladin I see is you. You’re the most human looking race on the Horde. I play as a hunchbacked green skinned Orc rogue. I look like an actual enemy to the Alliance and something they’d want to make an enemy out of and not like something that could be on the Alliance and fight in its ranks.
That’s completely correct. But you are trolling. Someone who isn’t trolling doesn’t make multiple posts and topics talking about how they “love” a particular thing that happens to be extremely divisive and widely hated. Neither do they make many threads that are in direct contradiction with each other, or which start with claims that are well-known to be hated.
Your most recent posts outside this thread are about how Calia would totally be an awesome Forsaken leader, how you’re pumped to kill Sunreavers, how WoW has a way better story than boring stuff like the Witcher and how anyone who disagrees is wrong because they’re a Sylvanas fan, how the Nightborne only exist to erase the Night Elves from the story, and of course that AV is designed for an easy Horde offense and defense.
Practically every single thing you say is contrarianism that you can only defend with “It’s just my opinion bro”. That’s trolling, no matter how much you insist you’re genuine.

And you’re welcome to that. I only asked of your cognizance of the situation. If you’re fine with acknowledging, playing along, and berating others for fighting against a narrative they didn’t want despite knowing that this narrative objectively could’ve been written better with all parties happy (a non-Warchief Sylvanas, a good Baine, a returned Thrall, etc.) then feel free to do so. I personally find such opinions hypocritical and ignorant on expressing ideas/opinions on improving this narrative for the better of everyone, not just select peoples.

I’m may post a blood elf, but I at least like the Horde. You may use an orc as an avatar, but you hate the horde. You won’t be happy until the horde is just a copy of the alliance with a red flag instead of blue.

It isn’t widely hated though. You might hate it but you don’t speak for every single WoW player. I like the story. Not my fault you hate it.
Believing Calia would make a good character and add some depth to the Forsaken is not trolling. Wanting to fight and kill Sunreavers who stand in the way of freeing Baine is not trolling. This is the World of Warcraft after all. Thinking WoW has a better story than the Witcher is not trolling. Pointing out the badly written Nightborne is not trolling. Speaking of perceived map flaws in the battleground forum is not trolling.
It’s my opinions and you disagree with them and so you call it trolling. If I was making threads that agreed with you then you wouldn’t be saying this. It’s as simple as that.
I like the Horde too. That’s why I play traditional Horde races. I’m not the one wanting to bring over Alliance aesthetics to the Horde. I embrace the real Horde aesthetic.
Oh look!! The siamese trolls (in one case actually a totally intended pun) are back!! Well, this was a given considering Easter vacation ended, so I guess mommy and daddy left their account unsupervised once again (seriously why adulst are so careless with their stuff and their children?).
Nothing more lolworthy than an Orc avatar worshipping the neutering of it´s own faction´s themathics… I´m curious OP, does your mommy´s name start with a “C”? Or maybe your daddy´s last name starts with an A? Cause this would totally explain how you can do something as absurd as thanking the mediocre morons we have as writers for selling us a recycled plot… (I mean this ubber low level of quality control should be punishable by civil law… we shoudl be paying half the price of the sub AT BEST considering they´re selli8ng us something theyr already sold us a few years back)…

Supporting Thrall is hardly “neutering” the Horde. It’s supporting what made the Horde what it is. Not my fault you dislike the Horde and its heroes.
