>SARGERAS IS WAS JUST MISUNDERSTOOD

I never understood this need to have EVERYTHING explained in any given universe. What happened to mystery? To the great unknown that is always in the background, out of which you can pull a never ending story?
>>
>>331447363
What the fuck am I reading?
>>
>>331447363
Which book is this from?
>>
>>331448298
Azeroth = Azathoth
They need to explain it so they can finally end the game by having the final boss be the corrupted Azeroth. The final boss is the World of Warcraft.
>>
>>331448298
People asked questions and wanted to know more and the games had to expand the story to create more content for expansions.

Also some people don't like mystery, that movie water world didn't explain a damn thing.
>>
>>331448498
It's from Warcraft Chronicle: Volume 1
>>
>>331448298
Because 99% of the time the "mystery" is just lazy writing, not saying that Wow would have good writing eitherway though.

so. post your face when Thrall is the lost incarnation of Azeroth the baby titan
>>
>>331449191
I seriously doubt that's what's going to happen. Might be one of the NE characters more likely.
>>
>>331449520

Thrall is already the earth warder

UH DUMBASS THIS IS WHAT A NYARKATHOTEP LOOKS LIKE
>>
>>331449606
He's a stupid warder.
>>
the better question is when will hack writers stop ruining Lovecraft with their own shitty versions
>>
>>331449156
You're giving Blizzard too much credit.
>>
>>331448489
Warcraft Chronicles.
>>331447363
Apparently, back in 2010, Metzen said Sargeras was just misunderstood. Still shit though.
>>
>>331449191
>>331449520
Watch Thrall go into a spiritual journey and reawaken the spirit elementals and become a bigger Mary Sue, then highhandedly awaken the baby titan and save the world/universe.

As long as WoW exists, the fucking story is going nowhere. Feel free to check WH40K if you don't think I'm right. The best thing Blizzard can do for the franchise and their wallets even is to just give WoW a conclusion leading up to WC4, advance the story in a meaningful way and with many years, kill off or resolve the stories of the most contrived muthafuckas in the lore and set the stage for WoW2. As long as they keep propping the festering, maggot ridden corpse of the game for the sake of relative faction balance, things are just going to get shittier and shittier and they are going to keep writing themselves into bigger holes.

Fun part is, WoW was never a great game. Blizzard lucked out on the fact that all the shit was obfuscated by the immersion and community created by the lack of fan sites and data mining along with the grind shifted from levels to attunements, yet every attempt at bringing it back is a step in the wrong direction.
>>
>>331447363
This doesn't really change Sargeras.

He's still very much evil. Rather than trying to find another solution, he decides to kill everything. He decided to take the easy way out and commits genocide along the way.

The only change here is Sargeras at least has a plausible motivation for his actions now whereas before he was corrupted by nothing basically.
>>
>>331451969
But why would Sargeras turn evil if he is an all powerful Titan? The other titans saw the same as he saw but later on with Azeroth. Instead of destroying Azeroth like Sargeras did with the other planet they chose to get rid of the corruption by defeating the Old Gods. If an Titan can turn "evil" without the Void Lords will then what's the point of sending out Old Gods to corrupt sleeping Titan babies? Sargeras goal is the exact same as the void lords
>>
>>331447363
You give Metzen shit for having corruption boners, but when he shifts the story from Sargeras being corrupted by the Nathrezim (Dread Lords), you guys are still buttfrustrated for some reason.

Desu this actually makes him a shithead AND makes a bunch more sense than some asshat played like a fiddle by a race of beings that got played like fiddles by a banshee.
>>
>>331452302
It's the same shit with Uther and Arthas. Both have the same goals but one is more extreme than the other.
>>
is there a full download ?
>>
>>331452302
The difference between Sargeras and a void corrupt Titan is that Sargeras still very much opposes the Void Lords and his actions reflect this. A void corrupt Titan would presumably help the Void Lords enter whatever reality is now and remake it in their image.

They are different types of evil basically with different goals.
>>
>>331447363
Metzen's only plot resolution go-to is "They were misunderstood all along"

WC3 onwards, no one did nuffin wrong, same with Zerg in SC2 suddenly they were just bein' bullied genetically by the xel'naga and were secretly passive and largely harmless before
