Wow hasn't had a good story in a while

It’s called a personal opinion. You like the faction war as a storyline. I get it. Some of us never enjoyed it or found it even remotely interesting.

I don’t get why some people not liking the faction war is such a foreign concept to some of you. It’s almost like people don’t understand that there’s more to WoW than just faction brained fighting

Edit: PvP is a different beast though. Battlegrounds are genuinely fun to do. And the faction war should’ve always remained that. Something to justify the existance of BGs

I understand what you’re saying. Obviously you are entitled to your opinion. What I’m saying is that it’s such a foreign concept to me that I have trouble believing it. Just like I’m sure there are people who honestly believe that birds aren’t real, but I assume that they can’t be serious.

I just ask you not belittle someone with Is this sarcasm just because that person disagrees with you about one very specific thing in WoW

We can disagree respectfully without dismissing someone elses opinion. We have had pleasant discussions on this while disagreeing, I just ask it stays that way

To compare WoW to another MMO(ish) game. Destiny actually has the PC involved in the story and the cutscenes. Sometimes we are in the background minding our own business but other times we are front and center. The Witch Queen expansion is probably the best example of that. As we are the ones mainly investigating how Savathun “stole” the Light. Other examples would include Forsaken and The Final Shape. That is, when Bungie remembers to hire the PC’s VA’s anyway. It was a meme throughout Destiny 2 Year 1 that our PC was a mute for some reason. It even got lampshaded by Cayde 6 during the Nessus chapter of the Red War campaign.

Nah. BFA is by far the worst expansion of them all. Ruined the Horde beyond repair.

That’s fair. While the rest of the post assumed it was not sarcasm, the initial question was genuine and not an attempt to belittle you.

I think some kind of insecurity compelled me to throw it out there that perhaps I suspected it was sarcasm before your response was “That was sarcasm, noob”

Right now the WOW team has to poach whoever is writing the Diablo IV story which is really killing it in the new expansion. It is literally the best Blizzard story to date.

Given that it is the soul of this game, the very name of it, I would have to ask what brought you to it? It certainly isn’t the cutting edge graphics or intense worldbuilding.

Shame the team didnt bring back Paul Eiding to voice Mephisto for D4.

I got into the game because it was better than EverQuest at the time. The name is world of Warcraft and the world is still warring. Faction wars is not the soul of the game.

I played WoW on and off from Vanilla through Wrath with little breaks here and there. I was really into Star Wars Galaxies at the time. But honestly, it’s always been the RP community thats kept me playing all these years.

And besides, I no longer like the things the 20 yr version of me did. I outgrew the Red vs Blue mentality like most people

Unfortunately I got disconnected from the RP community when I started working nights. Virtually all of the rp folks I had bookmarked have absent times listed in years.

the factions will always be there. So there is a huge story inbalance that favors the alliance.

But I don’t care about the factions anymore. It’s the one point everyone keeps missing

YOU liking it is never going to make me like it. I literally do not care.

I was Horde when BFA happened. Left a bad feeling.

BfA was terrible for both sides. It made every character people cared about look stupid to one degree or another

your leadership wasn’t obliterated.

The one leader I actually care about just retired and handed Gilneas to his daughter. And Velen is still being a wholesome dude.

Alleria is shaping up to pretty interesting though. Not gonna lie about that.

Other than that, I’m just here enjoying the story and have been since DF
