I love that the undead paladin dude had an obvious Horde crest on his tabard I love when the Forsaken are boldly, unapologetically, proud members of the Horde

I’m waiting to see how they implement them because if they’re not paladins of the church of forgotten shadows they’re going in the trash

I don't even know how to reasonably, maturely criticize these devs anymore. What's the point of good faith criticism anyway when the devs themselves either don't seem to care or just automatically seem to assume any and all criticism is inherently bad faith?

Not this rotating wheel of young progressive main characters who have all the objectively correct opinions mandated by the writers and want do good. The factions produce heroes, The heroes save the world for their factions That's how it works. That's what Warcraft IS.

It ain't the blood elves, it ain't Silvermoon, it isn't even the greater light v void plot. This kid has only been relevant in matters pertaining to the whereabouts of his ALLIANCE WAR HERO parents, it's what defines his entire existence.

It's almost, like, the same gripe I have w/ Gazlowe in Undermine where I prolly wouldn't have nearly as much stigma with it if Gazlowe was still just a neutral guy and he wasn't supposed to be the leader of a main Horde group and they won't let him wear that shit.

Like, people can wax on about how it "isn't about factions anymore!" Or "Arator is neutral" all they fuckin' want, but at the end of the day, what do you associate Arator with for the 20 years that this character has existed in the game. Cuz lemme tell ya, green; it sure as shit ain't fuckin' QT.

The funny thing is, I actually don't think I'd hate him at all if he wasn't, like, definitively symptomatic of the writers aversion to having ACTUAL HORDE CHARACTERS, involved in the main plot.

It really says alot that blizz banked on Arator being a hit with players to carry midnights story as a hero w that sick cinematic @ launch But now he’s at best “liked”, like I havnt seen a single super fan for him this whole xpac, compared to so many other midnight characters (Jan) Flop character

12.1 really takes the cake though. It progresses neither the story nor characters. Zul'jan achieves nothing, Zul'jarra learns nothing, neither of their philosophies are explored, challenged, or reinforced. The elves DON'T show up. The loa DO abandon her (albeit not by choice). WE learn nothing.

zul'jan remains one of the most satisfyingly written characters in recent warcraft memory, with proper development and stakes. no wonder he's beloved by so many. if midnight gave me one thing, it's a troll character to genuinely care about. that's my fucking guy. ride or die for jan.

No it’s fine I just have thoughts how most of the major troll characters we got introduced to in 12.0 are dead and basically all the elves are still alive.

Can't help but wonder what the rest of the WoW team thinks of the writing team. If I was working on one of the gameplay teams there and doing some of my best work ever while the writing team was just constantly shitting the bed and souring the impact, I would be so fucking mad at those motherfuckers

It makes her "More mysterious" and 10000% less interesting like I'm just sick of her and every character connected to her has my opinion of them lowered based on how they have to act when shes there

The side quests, meanwhile, are... really really rough. Not only are most of them rather bland and bereft of cultural exploration, they're also just genuinely childish at times. I felt like I was being taught more about chores than I was about the themes of the blood elves.

It does *try* at times, like the story in Tranquillien about how the Voidstorm is exacerbating fear and isolation... but that story ultimately isn't about the blood elves, it's about Umbric and the Twilights. The blood elves are essentially set dressing for Midnight's campaign.

Unlike Zul'Aman and its exploration of the Amani loa, or Harandar and its exploration of Haranir isolation, Eversong Woods doesn't have anything to *say* about the blood elves. In an expansion about faith, their primary zone doesn't have a thesis about its main race.

I think its because we've all given up on the idea of established cool races we all know and love from decades playing this game becoming playable, we all know they'd prefer an OC with 8 billion eyebrow options instead these days

It’s because after Dracthyr, earthen and Harranir the playerbase has literally given up on getting allied races they’ve been asking for for 20 years. That’s the whole reason. It’s apathy from Blizz’s constant “you think you do but you don’t” Especially w midnight and ignoring Amani or high elves

The way people praised DF's side quests and their response was to just make the main story shorter really says it all. Zero examination as to what people liked about the side quests, just trim down the main story because you think less of it will equal less criticism. Complete cowards.

💜 MIDNIGHT SPOILERS 💜 I shouldn't post spoiler art, but this was just too precious not to draw - don't worry, Zul'jan loves it, he loved to be carried and gently grabbed so he can play fight against it! Also uncle Kinduru! #worldofwarcraft | #skymagpieart | #amani | #zuljan | #zuljarra | #troll

A young Zul'jarra and Zul'jan with their uncle Kinduru. Kinduru has grabbed Zul'jan upside down to restrain him and Zul'jan is actually having fun. Zul'jarra stands with her arms crossed as her brother probably deserved to get carried away.

Below is a screenshot from Midnight Beta reading:
Zul'jan says: I swear to de ancestors I will throw you over my shoulder and carry you if you don't leave now.
Loa Speaker Kinduru says: Hah! That's what I used to tell you when you were a child!
Zul'jan groans with frustration.

Some more thoughts: I do think there is some opportunity here for a bit of faction representation. At the moment it feels a bit like Silvermoon is going at this void threat alone, with only the Vanguard coming to their aid. Surly the rest of the Horde could send troops to support?

This could really add to the escalating tensions in the city. As more Blood Knights and Magisters are called to reinforce the Sunwell, Forsaken and Orcs come to reinforce the city's defenses, putting the more Alliance based Vanguard even more on edge.
