Did you actually glean that for some reason I think devs care about night elves from my posts?
Cause I’ve got some grade school english courses for you to take…
I disagree.
We, the players, are not allowed to off a main character. We should have killed Jaina after helped kill the Zandalari King, she escaped.
Sylvanas, I believe, has gone insane with the power of the void. It is a regular theme with anything void related, even shadow priests earn insanity as their power. We have void elves, which should be insane, but I think they just wanted purple Veruca elves.
Nothing really makes sense anymore because the original crew isn’t telling us the story. If any of them are left, then they are tapped out. Fan fiction geeks will wreck it because they simply do not understand the mechanic, and paid writers just do whatever they are told or feel like infusing an existing story with garbage. Needless to say, I am not happy with how this expansion has turned out at all on all fronts. No one should be, Alliance or Horde.
Of course fanboys and girls will accept anything, and those people that do not like the war are going to welcome that lack of Horde and Alliance fighting. For the purpose of the game, a war without conflict is nagging like an disappointing spouse. Let me play that!
There are no Epic Hero’s in this game anymore either. You might notice they don’t exist anywhere in society. Superhero’s are commonplace in cinema so much so that I think as a population we are numb. The only thing that can provoke is social discordance, the anti-hero or even a villain.
The will end Sylvanas because as a story device she is tapped out. They could have easily left each of the characters in their respective cities without wrecking them, and the battle would wage forever on, expansion after expansion. Just like Day of Our Lives, the same actors aging ungracefully with a loyal viewers.
In the game universe, huge changes push more current players away then retain them. It is easy to answer this, people have enough changes in real life and having a consistent gamer universe attractive. You will not lose players from being consistent because there really is not an alternative worth noting like wow.
Like Varian, Sylvanas will perish. Problem is, she is a huge draw by comparison to other characters. You are right, if they totally redeem her they will lose players, if they destroy her as the evil villain they lose players. That is why they need to redeem her in such a way as you have all players feel satisfied - personally I, like you, feel that they will fail.
Seeing the Lillian and Calia interactions makes me sick. Everyone is so subdued and compliant, there is no zeal or vigor to any of these characters. It is as if we are being fed a big lie, how to be politically correct and follow to good life. No. I refuse.
I picked the Horde as the rebellion, the social outcasts. The unsavory undead that gasp and wheeze with rotting limbs that were shunned. The Blood Elves are those pretty mean selfish conceded people, arrogant to the end and disliked by all. Orc’s the brutish bullies and thugs ruled by strength and power, Tauren. Dopey Tauren, who else would want a cow but the Horde as a warrior. Do you really think that they Alliance accepts these misfits? That is the whole struggle. Without that, what do you have?
Boring…
Sylvanas will die, and I have quit without interest in following this story any longer. Not because of her - because of Thrall, Baine, Anduin, Calia, Lillian, Jaina, etc… It is all boring.
I’d resubmit to kill Malfurion, he’s a roach! Unkillable too.

At this point-- Does it even matter? Personally, it doesn’t-- no matter which way they decide to write this, it’s going to continue to be bad fanfiction.
Just let them end it and get it over with.

Arthas and Illidan disprove that.
Yes Illidan returned, but it was years later after writers changed.
Stop right there, criminal scum!
Yeah-- I get that. But reality is, no matter how they write this out, no matter the direction-- It’s going to still be poor writing.
Bad writers suddenly don’t become great ones because the direction of the story changes.
I don’t have a lick of hope for 9.0.
I didn’t complain
they’re about to raid boss tyrande too and that’s awful writing. i have no idea what they’re even trying to do at this point. lol.
I think they are using all the tropes in order to get people to stay.

Then they need to step away and let real writers do the job.

To become the thing she hated all along?
That’s too predictable.
Well… was anything about this a surprise so far?
I want Kel’thuzad to just kill her unceremoniously like Vol’jin was at the start of the expansion.
It’d at least be an admission of how far gone this trainwreck is, and it’d be funny.

Honestly, I don’t want her to die at all.
She’s too deliciously evil for that.
They put her on the back burner far too often over the years. She finally gets the spotlight, and they give her the “villain that ties the maiden to the train tracks” treatment.
The tragedy of BfA is the poor story writing they gave Sylvanas. She deserved better.

Nah, the moment they decided to have Saurfang job for her, I was done.
Her winning that so effortlessly in the way that she did is BS.

They have been doing this for awhile. There wasn’t really any incentive to kill Kael, Vashj, and Illidan in BC. If they went deeper in to why Kael defected to the Legion I think he would of been a lot more interesting. If they wanted Illidan to be a boss, then BC questing should of put an emphasis on how horrific he was to Outland or something. Instead he was AFKing in BT and we killed him just for fun basically.
She’ll Raise Garrosh to fight for her as an undead warrior, but Garrosh being the fiesty big boi that he is, will resist, and kill her, and then he’ll kill bolvar and become the next lich king and rule the horde as he always intended.
