No it's not. Nathrezim are native to the Nether, Fel energies are their normal state. They can't be purified because they aren't corrupted. Holy magic is literally corruption to them.

The light can't corrupt though because the light only gives you power if you truly believe in it. It's not like fel magic where it just takes you over and makes you a slave. You have to WILLING fully embrace the light.

I don't understand people who rail on War 3's plot/lore. You honestly prefer the extremely generic stories in 1 and 2? I can see some of the appeal in it, and maybe the execution in 3 is a bit wonky, but it's still leagues ahead of what most original IP games offer.

Stranger still, while doing so, he refers to himself as Loramus Thalipedes, the famous demon hunter who killed him long ago in the Blasted Lands! Send your forces to Azsuna to investigate.

Loramus Thalipedes was a Demon Hunter you helped out in the Blasted Lands in vanilla leveling. He got fused with the demon Razelikh and somehow managed to purify the demon body. The quest I linked above is the start of the Demon Hunter campaign.

I fucking got it. They have a way to milk wow much longer than their original plot could.

When the void lords die, they will reveal that Naaru and the light and all the benevolent entities are the same shit but with glowy colors. This is proven by them being able to "corrupt" fel entities like dreadlords. So players must now fight against the light and every creature they "corrupted" to be turbo holy. The entire story finally ends with "everyone being masters of their own fate" or some shit when all the higher entities are gone. Watch me, they will fucking do this too.

No. The message was a way to actually show them and provoke some emotion from people and give actual character development to Arator.
In the MM Hunter questline you invade a Legion prison world with Veressa and found Alleria's bow and discover that she just left the planet.
Alleria and Turalyon are gonna be involved in the Suramar questline where they will help us genocide every living Nightborne as confirmed in Blizzcon.

They are actually giving characters and story development and you complain that it's fanservice?
Would you prefer another WoD story style expansion?

Magni finally fucking wakes up. During one of Moira's regular visits to her rocky dad, he starts moving. He is 100% made of diamond and his voice sounds like an earth elementals. He admits to chilling and talking with the Titan within Azeroth and found out about Gul'dan's antics to summon the Legion and goes off to warn everybody.

Taussarian and Koltira show up again. The Hand of Argus from Bloodmyst Isle show up. Eligor Dawnbringer and a bunch of the Scarlet Crusade/Argent Dawn/Argent Crusade show up. Our Garona (not the shitty AU one) shows up, Lord Ravenholdt, Vanessa VanCleef and fucking Valeera Sanguinar show up.
Same goes for Broll Bearmantle, fucking Nobundo, Crok Scourgebane and a shitload of other cool dudes.
High Overlord Saurfang officialy becomes the orc racial leader Vol'jin goes off to recruit the Zandalari and Sylvannas becomes Warchiefand sits infront of the throne in Orgrimmar.
Thrall is a pussy and looses power over the elements for using them for petty revenge without asking to kill Garrosh.


You can continue to ask for another xpac without any relevant story development but you're a fucking retard if you do.

Might of mistyped. Vol'jin makes Sylvanas Warchief and runs off to "get help" (wich is obviously the Zandalari). Saurfang is the Orc racial leader and is infront of the Orgrimmar throne room.
When Jaraxxus invades the Barrens, Saurfang is the one that leads the attacks against the Legion invasion in the area.

>>333074271
When the Legion invades the Exodar, we go help out. Velen actually moves his ass and does something because the Legion was trying to get to one of the na'arus inside.
Also, Anduin is King of Stormwind because Varian dissapears and/or dies (not yet known, Blizz is deliberatly keeping everything about Varian out of the alpha). HOWEVER, Greymane is pulling a lot of strings. He does shit Anduin does not aproove to get back at Sylvanas and has the 7th Legion and the SI:7, with the help of Sky Admiral Rogers (wich helped in the invasion of Pandaria and SoO) to spy and attack the Horde. He, however, is growing up and not being such a peace treehuger. He has dialogue about learning the hard way that peace isn't allways the answer.
Tirion goes YOLO like Varian did and kills shitloads of demons in the intro quests but.

Darion Mograine has the Ebon Blade work alongside Bolvar to ressurect Kel'thuzad and reform the Four Horsemen with Nazgrim (we go into Orgrimmar's cemetery to steal his corpse), Thoras Trollbane (we help Gallen kill trolls in Arathi Highlands so he opens the cript. He refuses and gets the axe to the head and we open it anyway), Whitemane (we goto the Scarlet Monestary to get her corpse back) and Tirion (DK's charge into Lights Hope to try and steal it).

I think it's because the WoW team has somehow come to the conclusion that the core theme behind the IP is the corruption/redemption cycle. The theme is heavily featured in W3 and was a part of many questlines since Vanilla. I think the problem is that the writing team decided to make corruption a tangible, discrete force in the universe. In many ways their handling of the concept is like Star Wars midichlorians. They misunderstood what was intriguing about corruption and gutted the theme of the nuance and personality. At some point they began writing to fulfill objectives instead of writing good stories and plopping objectives around them.

in wow, demons are just beings that have been living under demonic influence for a long enough time that it starts to effect their physical appearance and way of thinking to an extent.

the origin of this demonic influence is the titan sargeras who is basically the stan of wow.
