I mean, not even the writers understand the lore and they’re the ones in charge of it. Before the Storm has no inkling that she’s working for anyone else, even when we’re inside her head. Burning Teldrassil was a last second change because she threw a tantrum over a dying elf’s last words Saurfang didn’t kill Malfurion. It really does feel like they didn’t know where they were going with Sylvanas until halfway through the expansion.

That smirk she did at the end of the Bfa scene was really good.

To those of you who insist on being pedantic and calling out people for calling her a Mary Sue. She’s a Villain Sue. Happy now?

AHAHAHAAHA
not even the writers understand the lore
I see… So the game creators do not understand their own game, but fortunately we have YOU to tell us how the game should be like…

Yep. I hate her and I still understand all this. Too many people are blinded by their emotions.

I look at it as she loves fighting and conflict. I don’t mind it. In fact, I get excited when I see it because I know she’s about to go buck wild.

In Shadowlands we need a bunch of cinematics of Sylvanas smirking to make up for all the sad Saurfang commercials we got in BfA.

Stuff like what? Be specific.

rotating teams that don’t talk to each other result in inconsistent, contradictory lore that ends up getting retconned in dev Q&A and not in the story.

They’re people just like us, don’t act like they never make any mistakes.

She literally died against godfrey ; she was just “ranger” who got destroyed (literally couldnt do anything against arthas) by the lk .
Maybe she has some skills to just avoid some arrows or good aiming but this ? not even the dumb fanboys of sylvnas can say this is normal .
I really hope shes getting alllll her power from some god of death or this will destroy the lore if is not already destroyed.

That movie was very dear to my late father and I. Thank you for that.

That is Blizz’s excuse for how powerful she is now. They just completely failed at foreshadowing it either in the game or out of it. She went from being a glass cannon to becoming nearly invincible overnight.

Sounds like 8.3 is going to reveal some of this to the player… would have been much better leading up to 8.2.5 or 8.2 if the alliance would have had some witness account and gave the greater horde a reason to divorce themselves of her.

Why bother telling a story in chronological order when you can just retcon as you go?

Keeping her intentions and power ups hidden hasn’t worked well for the story.

No, they are nothing like you. They own it and you are just a customer who rent an account.
Imo, find a way to enjoy it… Personally, I would not stress over a lore whether she died or not. I would suggest to anyone to quit a game that gives them stress.

So you’re saying they aren’t human at all? That’s a pretty mean thing to say.
You are failing to get the message. She knows the power she has bargained for is going to allow her to win.
She smirks because she knows something they don’t and it feeds her ego.
it’s literally meant to make the crowd roar in either anger or adulation.
