When will we get a Horde story?

Listened to the new “short” story today, and I just wonder when we’ll get a story that’s about Horde characters interacting with each other. Seems like every story has to be predominantly Alliance with a Horde (ish) character tagged along.

I get that Matthias Shaw and Reznik already get together, so that’s fine, but this could have been the chance to have a Horde representative trying to bring the goblins of Undermine over to the light, so to speak. This could have been about any goblin and an existing Horde rep; Baine, Rokhan, even Ji Firepaw, pulling them away from their self-destructive ways.

I know Gelbin is gonna be a big part, or at least I assume. I just wish that we could have Horde-centric plot lines without needing to include an Alliance character.

Honestly, I wish we could go back to having separate plot lines for Horde and Alliance. It seems like the Horde are gonna be on the backburner whenever it comes to a centralized plot line.

I know Midnight is gonna be elf-themed, but the Horde is about more than just elves.

This is just a gripe post, but where is the future of the Horde? Do new people even know who the Horde leaders are, or their personalities?

Most likley not in TWW. Right now we are just sidekicks for the grand alliance heroes as Blizzard isn’t aware what to do with the red team when we don’t kill ourselves in the next installment of a faction war.

I don’t think so. Our current leadership is a bunch of replacements we never get to quest with. Non RPers would ask “Who is that?”

Mate, stop viewing the game through horde and alliance lenses. Now it about specific races instead. Now it is the time for goblins. There is no horde or alliance

Also the whole patch is gazlowe trying to make them think more long term instead of short term profits.

Gazlowe is going to be a big part of the patch and he’s horde.

He is a single goblin leader. UndermineD is not Horde themed. Answer the OP properly or leave it be.

He said ignoring that the whole intro of TWW was alliance aligned only. Stop it.

Dwarves, Alleria and Anduin are not neutral. The concerncs of the OP are totally justified which is why they deserve a proper answer when this is now the third expansion in a row without any Horde presence in it.

If the OP play the game for the Horde they have every right to be angry that they didn’t show up or get additional lore. You are not to judge which part a fan has to like.

Keep whining, maybe somebody will actually care.

People are allowed to call out Blizzard for their one sided story.

And I’m sure all 5 of you believe that.

Perhaps the horde helps the Harronir? :8ball::robot:

The alliance has already accomplished their characters recently as Magni joins his family, Alleria satisfied her vengeance, and Anduin has the light. :memo::robot:

The goblin patch is launching in 3 weeks.

Gazlowe is 1 out of 5 goblin leaders. The rest is neutral. Which Undermine always was.

I really want to ask : why is it important for you? Why is the story for you needing to have “Horde characters story based” ?

A story is a story, no matter what faction we are exploring.

Why do we need to use Alleria and Anduin and not a Horde NPC for a change?
