Back in Legion Blizzard made a great deal of the facts that all the remaining veterans from the second war for the Alliance, the sons of Lothar, returned safe and sound to their people and resurges them new found faction pride for all the fans of team blue.
The same can not be said for the playable Orcs.
They made also a great deal of getting rid of each and eevry single Orc leader that isn’t Thrall and try their past to handwave it away and see it as shameful past so the only pride modern Orc fans are allowed to have now is whatever Green Jesus created despite the fact that Durotar is a crap land and Orgrimmar is super ugly on top of that.
Why is that? Why aren’t the Orc fans not allowed to feel pride for their real leaders the same way MHPs simp for Turalyon and Danath over there?
I want to understand why Blizzard dismantled every notion of any Horde activity that existed before Warcraft 3 was made and the exodus to Kalimdor happened.
Aren’t the green Orcs supposed to be the cataclyst of the faction at large?
Other races of the Horde don’t have that problem since Ogres and Forest Trolls are still not playable. The majority of the new allies are from post MMO story times.
Oh I already know that. I just had hoped someone here on the forum has a deeper insight on how it happened. I love Orcs(From my mains one is Mag’har shaman for TWW), I feel bad they got so little attention after Bfa was over.
People like humans/Elves the best for some weird reason and the devs read into that and add more of what people want. At least the Horde presence is mostly Orcs in TWW I can take some comfort in that.
Thrall is the token Orc there. That isn’t saying much for the rest of the story. So far we have 4 different blond people telling me what to do.(Turalyon, Alleria, Anduin and Jaina)
I just noticed Blizzard made a great effort from the fact that they removed every veteran from the previous wars over the years and eradictaed almost every family tree that originally lead the clans(Blackhand, Ner’zhul, Kargath, Fenris and so on).
We actually don’t know if Fenris is alive or not. It’s possible he survived Draenors destruction and is living out the rest of his days as a hermit somewhere in Outland.
my last notion was that the Fel Horde kidnapped most of them and turned them into literal demons. Not sure if there is a group of survivors somewhere. But it would be great really. The Thunderlords are my second favorite Orc clan.
