I personally wished we didn’t get 3 CGI shorts on one of the worst expansions to grace WoW (in both mechanics and story). It’s such a wasted effort that could’ve been spent on something different.
I think Death Goddess Sylvanas is the best way to wrap up her story. After we deal with her story bits she ascends into a being that is worshiped as a deity by the Forsaken. She is no longer apart of the story but she will always be a part of the Forsaken identity.
The writing’s been on the wall for years, this is just them spoon feeding it in no uncertain terms now. Alliance, Horde, Forsaken - they all have the distinct disadvantage of not being Sylvanas, therefore they’re on her chopping block.
I’ll admit, you’ve surprised me, this is not the first post I expected from you after such a long time. Especially with how it played out.
Genuinely appreciating the cinematic for what it is? Not denying Sylvanas’s obviously villainous nature? Being well-composed over her leaving the Horde?
If only other die-hard Sylvanas fans could take the news so well.
Very cringe. Like fanboys of the terrible DC movies, people like this will twist reality to meet their warped fan exceptions. The expansion was terrible, the cinematics were terrible, trying to convince yourself otherwise is just delusional.
Oh, I guess they look pretty. Well, a lot of effort goes into the CGI of Michael Bay Transformers movies. Those have the same level of writing as modern Blizz as well.
No offense, but… Another post, I saw you lambasting current WoW (from MoP onward, if I recall) very heavily and praising classic for being the WoW of yesteryear.
Why are you even posting in these threads if you’re supposedly so disenfranchised from the current story/game? Why not just spare yourself the upset and go enjoy Classic?
My apologies, but what are you trying to get at here?
You went back and dug up a quote were I say “People have asking for Sylvanas head for a very long time and its still attached to her shoulders”, which I’m sure the attachment of her head to her shoulders is still the topic of many discussions.
As for the last part, Sylvanas was holding it down for the Horde until she didn’t anymore. I’ve never believed that she was a chest thumping muh honor orc, I’ve always believed that Sylvanas would build both the Forsaken and Horde until she couldn’t benefit them anymore.
I’m not sure what you’re trying to say with Geya’rah’s and Liadrin quotes? They are both great warriors that both served Sylvanas, that both slaughtered countless Alliance.
Amadis if there is something you’re trying to say, please spit it out.
My only problem with her speech is that we’re supposed to read it as… bad?
Like, when she’s shouting about the Horde being nothing, I’m standing here cheering and nodding. But I gather that we’re supposed to be offput by that? I don’t really get it.
I’m not offended that she revealed herself as anti-Horde after spending the entire expansion arguing that siding with Sylvanas was the most pro-Horde thing you could do. The greatest thing about this bad story is that the pro-Sylvanas crowd can no longer say siding with Sylvanas is the pro-Horde thing to do anymore.
