And what wins did the Alliance have? We got totally owned in Teldrassil and our “revenge” was completely disappointing. Our supposed “win” in Lordaeron is just we getting fooled and almost defeated thrice, and we couldn’t keep the city we were supposedly conquering. Then our other “win” in Dazar’alor end with us being hunted down and running away once the Horde arrives, and the entire battle beyond blowing the ships was a blunder. Then the Alliance story is totally forgotten and we have not a single moment in for the rest of the expansion.
Heck, we didn’t even have story leading us into the first raid. That one is Horde-only.
And what didn’t the Alliance get? Allied races it actually wanted. Or extra faction-focused cinematics. Or a story arc. Like or not the Horde story, it had an arc, there was development, it ended with a new beginning for the faction. There was no arc for the Alliance. We started losing and ended up not winning. We can’t even say we got a new phase, it just feels like we lost and all our efforts since then were for nothing.
And then a new book is announced and 80% of the summary is about the Horde again.
