I mean really: He just needs a twirly mustache and a helicopter to run away in every time he needs to escape and he is complete: Look at the cartoon level stuff he as a “major threat” we have had to deal with - And no saying he was behind everything is a cheap out, he did nothing, he is cheap.
He:
Let us escape the maw, the domain where he has pretty much total control.
He LETS US raid his tower freely and some of his biggest defenses in place include rats
he is a child who “didn’t get his toy box because his mommy and daddy makers said none for you” so he wants to destroy everything (calling it now: Azeroth is his true ‘sister’ or something else that screams 1990 Saturday morning Cartoon and he has a major jealous hate rage for her)
His biggest plan and “greatest move” is using a human who cry’s every time he calls upon the light.
Rather then blow up/destroy Sylvanas he goes “K thanks for betraying me here goes your soul this won’t come back to bite me”
Could have killed the Archon in bastion through the king who would cry at the light: But nah that’s ok.
HAD A GIANT EYEBALL that saw us going in and out of the maw like it was a train station and also went: 'this is fine"
His tower is FULL of items that not only help make the tower a none threat, but also gives us even more power.
Teamed up with dread lords who have betrayed every single faction they ever “worked for” but because he is a five year old “this is a good plan”
Did I miss anything about our Cartoon villain that supposedly is the master mind behind Ner,zul, Arthas, And even getting the legion downfall? (LOL)
Or Blizzard could, ya know, actually do their jobs and invest in the in game portrayals and bring all the out of game content into it in a rewarding and fun experience and way?
Or we could get the inverted version of Azeroth where the good guys are evil and the bad guys are good. Like Uther opens a portal into Draenor and the humans invade and kill the Orcs who are all noble and civilized. The final patch we could go through the Light Portal into destroyed Azeroth and its all frozen and destroyed with the questing zone “Brightsun Plateau” where his fortress the White Cathedral sits.
Thinking about it, I think I’d have been happy with Dastardly and Muttley as the Big Bads this expansion. It would have been far more fitting and believeable.
I kinda hope he gets away but every so often in every EXP forward he pops up with some new plot/bomb/world ending thing that back fires and we don’t even finish him off we just feel bad as he is screaming at us
I would have been cool if rather then shadowlands we go Wow: Love date edition and the whole theme is about anduin and wrathion falling deep into love but they both must say no…for the fate of the world…but yes just…feels so right.
Then deathwing shows up and is like “NOT IN MY HOUSE!”
And Varian comes back to life “JUST LIKE YOUR UNCLE! SO PROUD!”
Does the fact he tells such obvious lies to his supposed allies only to be intending on enslaving even them afterwards count? I mean telling Sylvanas that the afterlife system is flawed and he intends to save everyone and grant them freedom only to practically scream “All shall serve me” once he gets his armor back seems kinda… predictable besides the fact his title is “The Jailor” yet he’s talking about “Freedom” …
