Honestly we’re about half and half for racial leaders. Even the dwarf council of 3 hammers, 2 of them are men. And these people that expect all men to be emotionless “tough guys” make me sick.

Let’s just agree to disagree on the matter and leave it at that, it’s not the centerpoint of my OP as it is anyway.
I mean it’s the first point you make, so it kinda is.
The rest of your complaints largely center about plot points that you either ignored or missed.

Malfurion was in Ardenweald taking Ysera’s place in like…10.0. That’s why he wasn’t around and why Ysera is.
I have 2 misgivings with 10.2.
- Cenarius doesn’t do anything
- All of the Aspects are seemingly not involved (inside of the Raid) until you fight Fyrakk but even then they just…stand on random floating platforms in their visage forms. Super lame.
Overall, it was a perfectly okay story expansion. It was safe, tame and mostly boring background noise. But I will take that as a win when we had things like BfA and Shadowlands which were just 2 bad stories in a row.
BC still takes the cake for being the most harmful expansion to the universe’s rules, settings, characters and lore though

It was a beach episode. You need those every now and then to reset the power creep.

You should really check your own work before you post more often, then.

Dragonflight actually reminded me of a cross between MOP and WOTLK.

MoP remix reminds me of the good old days when we had groups of schmucks with character like Nazgrim’s group or the Gob squad to pal around with. Better days.

I mean… Yes. That’s the point. Fyrakk isn’t a main villain he’s big brash stupid distraction.
The main villain of the expansion got literally everything he wanted because we were forced to ignore him. He even lied to his own allies so we didn’t even know what his plan was until it was too late.

Everyone gets to decide when their own beach episode begins and ends.
For some of us it never does, for better or for worse.

Complaining about expansion not being overly focused on males and Malfurion not being there.
Not even paying attention to the narrative at all.
I mean we kinda were. We just didn’t know until it was too late.
Iridikron used the dracthyr splinter faction who’s name I’ve currently forgotten to keep us busy so he could retrieve the amulet from the titan vault in the east of the zone. Aberrus was completely irrelevant to iridikron’s plan, he also used the opportunity to play on his brother’s insecurity and corrupted him to create another smokescreen for his future ambitions. He tricked the infinite dragonflight into helping him steal the hunger of galakrond under the guise he would ensure they could corrupt nozdormu.
The man played everyone like a fiddle and he didn’t throw it away at the last second with some grand speech revealing his genius or by doing anything uncharacteristically stupid. He was an agent of the void willing or not, and we didn’t get to see that until it was too late.
He’s legitimately the first smart villain I’ve seen in WoW. It’s just a shame the stories surrounding him haven’t been to people’s tastes. And the reason he feels smart, as you rightly point out, is he was not the focus of the expansion. The plot gave him time and ultimately at the end of dragonflight we lost. Sure we stopped the tree burning down but compared to previous expansions? We lost, badly. Hopefully we’re going to keep losing / scraping by throughout TWW so the void feels like a real enemy instead of a cartoon villain.

I’m find the inclusion of male characters as long as the story makes sense and the story needs male characters.
However, We didn’t need male character in the story so including them would be forced and would be an insult to males. We should include males when the story matters to have them to be part of it or when it makes sense.
I feel that it didn’t any male characters so can we not make it political? We don’t need dei for the sake of dei.
