I love they actually took time to build the realm instead of just saying all souls gather there and that is it. Could have been much worse.
Well, you see, Sylvanas sent the Horde Champion to Azshara so that Azshara could free N’zoth, enabling N’zoth to cause as much death as possible, thereby ensuring that as many souls as possible end up in the Maw, which would cause the Jailer to break free and allow him to unmake reality and, finally, create a new one where true free will exists.
Yes.
Like I said, a planter.
It certainly didn’t have any stated, but we’re talking about the same guy that ripped forgotten realms, dragonlance, etc.
he made lord soth like four separate times.
he directly referenced one of the lords of the domains of dread.
barov.
lmao.
Jaina had LOTS of cinematics. They just weren’t HD. “Sad Jaina” was almost as prevalent as “Sadfang” in BfA.

Lol what Jaina was everywhere. Literally most overrated character.
A wiser person would have left it alone. I don’t associate the afterlife with fighting butterflies and horses.
I’d prefer the Durotan explanation, he’s off screen on some great hunt, rather than the Draka one, that she’s some super assassin now, giving advice to a child she never knew.

They also had an abomination named after a german metal band. They made a Big Trouble in Little China reference with a six demon bag. You are trying to look deeper than the puddle’s depth, you aren’t convincing me.
Not everything can stay a mystery. Afterlife is too big of a theme to ignore.
No one said to ignore it. You just don’t explore every crevice, because the math often doesn’t add up.
The Shadowlands lore is terrible. It presents the lords of the realm of Death as buffoons. The leaders have no idea what is going on or what to do. You think it’s fine, right? Makes sense.
Warcraft lore is now an unplugged Flippy. Good Job, Erevien, everything sucks now.

I loved it. Bfa killed the game. WoD is a strong second place. But all is good as Long as Orcs and trolls are villains you can kill right?
So you like that Sylvanas went from some schemer to a bewildered victim in less than a minute? Anduin was just a body to use. Yeah, I bet you did like it.
So true, so true… the only difference is that Saurfang was not as profitable as Jaina at that time… so it was a sure deal to kill him off to make the Sylvannas hate train more prevalent even in the Horde, without losing Jaina that I think was selling merch (was it a statue or a book?) at that time too…er … I think, don’t remember well anymore. (IMO)
Not that it matter at this point, I don’t think they will ever touch again many plots of BFA or SL anytime soon, the story in DF took such a different turn that its hard to see any Faction war beyond the Cosmic Conflict now that we have to defend our World in a “literal sense”, because basically if we dont we either die or become the slaves of one of the Cosmic Forces in these new stories. (At least from what I been gathering)
I’m curious to see how Blizz story team can tell the story of Iridikron plan… What is beyond the Titans influence and what makes him think that when the Titans are gone we won’t be “corrupted” or “enslave” by another Cosmic Force?
This are my legit question in the story, what makes Iridikron soooo sure he not doing THE SAME thing every single villian we’ve had to fight until now?
I mean there was a reason why the “Old Gods” turn against Xal’atath does he really think he can use her without being use like all her other victims (even us! haha)?
Sorry side track to main story, this is about BFA… Apologies.

I imagine someone was building up a reveal.
What did Iridikron sacrifice? Everything! He using the tools of her enemies…
But his enemies are gone. He’s just attacking common folk. He’s fighting ghosts, which is interesting

Exactly, this story has me hook and a bit worry how Blizz might deliver that to us in game. 
Well to my shame if they add 3rd spec to the DH class in the middle of the World Saga beyond the Hero Talents, I wont care that much (I be hook for a while)… but I really still want to see what happends!
Jaina’s BfA arc was kind of shameless on balance. Here’s one of our most anticipated “warbringers,” a character who’d become defined by her hatred of the Horde, last seen rage quitting Dalaran for reversing her purge of its Horde pop. Beware, beware of me… or rather, beware my apparently unresolved WC3 trauma, which conveniently displaced the issues actually relevant to a faction war expansion.
Within a patch she was back to preaching peace to Thrall and cross-faction raiding with her buddy Lor’themar, with only the Derek thing to justify her attitude reset. The focus really wasn’t where it should have been IMO.

He also turned Stratholme into a domain of dread, whose fires can never be put out.
But if you can’t be convinced, that’s a you problem.
The normally would have. They were used (or “wasted” if you want to look at it that way) to fill in when they decided to cut BfA short.

And I thought the picture of what the afterlife was like was pretty depressing. Someone else forces into a job for all eternity while the powers-that-be drain you of your energy?
Kinda makes me think that Sylvanas had least a little bit of a point.

I wasn’t thrilled that apparently Thrall had to take blame for things that other’s did. While Jaina didn’t need to need to make any apology at all.
I have no problem with redemption arcs. But redemption requires acknowledgement of the wrong. This was a “everyone will forget everything and love me if I just be nice to them” arc.

I don’t think he touched game design… other people did that.
I’m a skeptic and you’re believer. I’m your Scully. Come on, let’s go home, Mulder.
