The Jailer Criticism

Truthfully, we don’t know anything concrete about the Jailer other than his looks. And therefore, I can only criticize his looks. We will get to criticize his story, plot and goals once we get there lol

And as far as appearances go… he is a shirtless muscleman.

Like the villains of tBC, Illidan and Kil’jaeden.

Or the villain of MoP, Garrosh.

Or the villain of WoD, Archimonde.

Or the villain of Legion, Argus.

And look, there’s nothing wrong with being a shirtless muscleman. I mean, I am one myself.

But so far we’ve had 8 expansions and 5 of them ended with us fighting shirtless musclemen. The other 3 had a dragon, a tentacle monster and a shirtful muscleman.

The Jailer could be anything else. He could have been a big skeleton grim reaper.

He could have been a lady, like the Marvel Comics version of Death.

He could have been a withered old man, to really sell the idea that we were fighting the scariest aspects of Death itself.

But nope. Yet another shirtless muscleman for a boss.

And I’m not saying that’s necessarily bad, but it could have been less repetitive and more creative. I hope the next end boss isn’t a shirtless muscleman.

Maybe the next protagonist could be one instead! :smiley:

Fair. I couldn’t tell if that was a shirt or a skin condition.

If it is a shirt it has muscles built into it so still counts lol

But have you seen his nipples?. Those things must have their own health bar and cast spells, a shirt might get in the way.

shirts are a thing of goodness and niceness, so no villain should be wearing them

But does he skip leg day? The Jailer still wears pants, probably to hide that he’s not doing it. All the work goes to the top. Shame!

lol come to think of it, the OP has a point, shirtless muscle men have been the usual antagonists in this game

Well the shirtless muscle man is the stereotype of toxic masculinity isn’t it?

Malkorok is probably like the Orcish version of “John”. There are many Johns lol

He just had to be BlackRock too!

I picked this DK skin because we couldn’t play BlackRock!

Uh yea I totally remember saying that

I think it was you… or some other hot orc… they all blur together eventually. But I swear it was you.
