Agreed. I’ve been playing this game for a decade and a half, nothing would make me cancel my subscription faster than an end to the theme that has been ongoing since the day I discovered this game.
Although merc mode in PvP is a thing already, I use it whenever I pvp for faster queues.
Why do you like merc mode? It’s the same as not having factions… I mean really can we get more double speak from you?
In real life a lot of countries have really hard tensioms because of history such as russians and nordics countries and arabs and jews. Major reason they dont straightway kill each other is geopolitical power which doesnt want to be disrupt by it oh and bombs that can decimate entire cities and countries too play a major role. The power of friendship is really not a thing.
Then truly i’ve misunderstood your argument so I apologize. I spoke on the outcome of those situations as a whole, I dont believe i’ve ever made the claim that they haven’t made an attempt at peace temporarily in the wake of an existential threat…
I was arguing that it has never worked.
then we’re not really arguing lol.
Sorry, no factions would cause us to get better story lines and the ability to play with all your friends. Not to mention better zone design. Yeah, it does make sense lore wise.
Merc mode transforms you in the other faction race. Clearly the major point there is faction.
I’d be careful going too in-depth on real-world politics… Mods hand bans out regularly for it, which is why I ignored that post.

EDIT
This wasn’t aimed at Dusk. Not sure why it says he said it.
I hate to say it, but Blizzard really has been doing everything in their power to whittle away at the faction barrier since WotLK. It’s not a surprise to me that this is a popular topic on the forums.
Clearly the point is Person Vs Person and not faction vs faction in this case. Otherwise we switch sides whenever we want a faster queue…
Sorry for what, for you beign wrong? Lol. You can play with your friends, at the same faction as intended, you know if your friend isnt on the same faction he really doesnt want to play with you. And more than a half of quests are made up thinking about factions. Even in legion where comes is the major “lez play tugeda” asnine arguments had a whole zone and finale dedicated to faction war.
The main reason for doing cross faction grouping is so that you do not have to be in a particular faction (the Horde) to do certain end game content. If you are currently Horde this is not an issue and you would presumably rather things stay the way they are. Which means that eventually everybody who wants to do serious endgame content will end up HOrde.
A lot of players would be fine with that, but I don’t think that fits with whatever odd vision the developers have for the game.
Not its not. Mostly because we already have merc mode for pvp btw.
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. Even though I intend on playing Classic, if they go down the route of any kind of faction merging in future expansions then I won’t be looking back on retail. It comes to a point where we’ve changed the core so much that it’s not even the same game anymore.
This is a false statement!
Just think about how the story could be better and the quest lines make sense if they only have to tell one better story.
Whole zone dedicated to PvP.
If they actually did something with the factions I’d say it needs to stay. But they don’t. There’s no faction war. It was a two scenarios, two cities gone. And then they’re like if we can do warfront! And those were all terrible. If they actually tried to include pvp I’d say it was worth it. But at this point it can go. The factions are just useless now.
Back when you had to fight the other faction for control of zones, that was worth while. But now it’s so lopsided that alliance get screwed.
Because you quoted from his post. Also honestly it needed malygos stuff to make a single mana bomb. Weapons of mass destruction for some reason are not allowed as much as they probably should in azeroth universe. Would also be boring anyway.
It would. There was an ongoing thing at the beginning of this expansion asking why the lightforged draenei didn’t just nuke the horde from orbit with their spaceship. it’s still a valid question, but i get why we’re just ignoring the ship’s existence.
It pretty much ascended the faction tensions to a irreversible levels. Literally no NE can forgive teldrassil burning and how horde was either proud of it or didnt care to take action against it. Same for zandalar, kul tirans beign invaded by horde etc etc.
