Imagine being the dude who hates the best race

I’d like to know how anyone in this game can say with such voracity and conviction that “THE MAJORITY OF PLAYERS…” like they know for sure what the majority of roughly 9.3 million active playing people are doing/prefer/whatever.

Betting most of the arguments you’re probably going to get will amount to lore not mattering while they clutch at poorly implemented precedence as if they didn’t just say lore doesn’t matter.
So does lore matter or not?
If you ask me it does, and should, and bad, poorly implemented precedence should be redone or edited to by it abide.
But it won’t because blizz is lazy, hence I’m of the opinion if they’re not willing to actually make it work they shouldn’t try.
So all call and race combos unlocks is good because they made lore for it. Some of it might be “lazy” to you but to me, they seem alright. Only thing lazy is racial/class animations aren’t made for their specific race outside of druids.
Why are worgen DKs lore breaking?
They don’t know the lich king has better rising powers so counteract the curse of goldrinn. They don’t know anything.
This dude is toasted…
Apparently none of those races can die
Nope, most of them are bad precedence. Namely Man’ari Paladins and Lightforged Warlocks.
Man’ari Paladins because they’re literal demons, and the Light has historically been wielded in violent opposition of them. The one instance of which I’m aware of a demon not being repulsed by it is in the case of a Draedlord, which we’ve learned is not a demon but a being of the Shadowlands.
Lightforged Warlocks because they didn’t give them Lightforged demons. That would have made sense, but again, like I said, blizz lazy. It would make sense for Lightforged Warlocks to be forcing their demons to serve the Light, but they’re just regular demons, and they’re just hucking around the same dark magic that damned the bulk of their entire race, which is dumb.
It’s okay to have bad taste.
That’s also part of why I consider it to be a matter of blizz laziness. None of the uniqueness of the concepts they implement comes through in the end, it’s just, “Hey, you can totally be X now, lmao”.

They ruined world building by expanding classes a race can be?

Yeah, the man’ari thing is just a skin. Lightforged warlocks, well we’ve seen how that happened via warlock questline so it isn’t totally out there.
Why thank you! Your opinion means so much to me!
So it isn’t bad lore, just lazy devs not making it fit the lore. The lore is fine, the game is behind the times though. Gadgetzan shows this while in lore it is a huge city but in game, it is still a camp.
Yes. I agree with that one statement from the OP. But it doesn’t destroy the game.
The OP is right, but his argument goes way over many players’ heads. They just want tonplay whatever they feel like and don’t care about a developed world or defined cultures. They just care about cosmetics and skins. They are shallow players.
They don’t want to play as a Blood Elf, jaded by the betrayal of Kael’thas, struggling to overcome their addiction to fel, reeling from the Alliance’s rejection of their people, forced to ally with former enemies.
They want to be Christy in a blood elf skin b/c they think that race is prettiest and wanna be X class cause they think blood elves would look cool as that class. Lore comes last for them.
People don’t care about getting immersed in a fantasy world anymore. They want to make the fantasy world reflect what they want to see, which is usually their own self-inserts. People are so narcissistic today that they will take another person’s fantasy world and demand it be changed to accommodate their preferences. Fanfiction trumps lore these days.

It isn’t.
They’re literal demons.
Hence why it sucks from a lore perspective, it just completely ignores it.
I went through that entire questline, and it was as dumb as I was expecting.
It was a man who has lived for thousands of years fighting and resisting the demonic forces of the Burning Legion just deciding, “Hey, our people die, maybe we should use the same power that turned a chunk of our species into genocidal maniacs intent upon our destruction lol”. It is funny, though, because throughout it you never see them actually summon anything properly, and every spell they cast is only effective because it’s drawn from the grimoire of a dreadlord.

Their laziness makes it bad, because it doesn’t exist in the game, and therefor is not canon, is not actual lore, and does not to the actual story apply.

Mate, lore wise, they are over that since the end of BC. They aren’t addicted to fel anymore, not for at least 10 years plus.
If you want to be immersed, you would have known that. When the lightwell came back online, their fel addiction left and they stopped resenting the alliance.
I mean you’re literally doing the same thing and trying to ruin other’s experience and immersion to selfishly suit yourself. Except one way is more logical and consistent in world and one isn’t (yours).

Please explain to me why a belf can’t choose to be a warrior.
Tauren paladins literally expanded paladin more by showing there’s more than one way a paladin can gain their faith.
Love how you guys talk about more and how beneficial class restrictions are for it yet are blind to how it actually stagnates the lore…
Tldr: you’re opinion is laughably bad and you should log off the forums for the day

I mean it doesn’t trump lore or the original feel, games that are internally consistent generally do much better than lazily made games full of contrivances. This one is no different.
Yeah we know, the skin for the race though isn’t a real lore thing people can be. It is like having the zombie elf paladins. They aren’t canon, they are just a cosmetic thing. There is no lore Man’ari paladins.
There always got to be that one dude, and warlocks are outliers. They aren’t common, so yeah, it makes sense lore wise.
Well then it shouldn’t matter to you then. Lore wise, they exist, In the game they do not. for you.
