More shitty WoW lore.
I know all that faggot, all of that is a fucking shitty retcon created in WoW though, just like majority of WoW in general.
I also love how most of the complete irrepearable devastation and destruction that was done to humanity and it's greatest cities in Frozen Throne is also just retconned away.
The worst part about retcons is not fictional world not following some arbitrary continuity though, that never is the worst part. The worst part is when retcons make world and it's events less interesting to cater to certain demographics, limited game mechanics or just because of writer is a dickhead.

>>
>>337915323
Well the difference was that the broken/lost ones were supposed to be what all of the draenei were and they were just another race native to draenor but that was retconned.

Etiher way it wasn't a huge retconn since basically nothing was removed, just additional background added to the draenei. Anyone who gets that upset by the change is just autistic.

No, it's literally about lore being interesting and lore being fucking dumbed down and boring for the sake of casuals/limited game mechanics.

Case in point, Alduin in Elder Scrolls lore is aspect of Aka, a 4 dimensional stomach of Satakal that literally consumes the world and re-created Kalpa and has done many times before despite the efforts of faggots such as Lepper Demon King and Ruddy Man. Alduin was literally planetary sized Dragon God of Time chunk of a bigger God of Time.

BC was a gigantic lore clusterfuck and Metzen forgot his own lore and made shit up last minute.

Thats how we got the Sargeras/Eredar/Draenei retcon in BC.

Also Alliance can't have an ugly race so that made it even more important to retcon Draenei, who aren't even fucking native to Draenor, into the blue space goats from Argus instead of the fucking hideous but peaceful natives of Draenor who are nearly extinct due to fel orcs like Akama and others.

I mean that's actually one of the few decent changes wow made because it changed absolutely nothing important.

Much bigger changes were putting the night elves into the alliance when they were absolutely a neutral third faction, and putting undead into the Horde when they too would have almost no reason to want to be part of that since Sylvanas pretty much seemed to hate the living.

If anything WoW shit on night elves the most out of any race.

>Why does it bother people that they took an almost irrelevant race of creatures from WC3 and actually decided to give them a background?

Because they weren't irrelevant and they had a background.

Instead they changed it so they were related to another race that was also relevant and already had a distinct background.
A background they changed resulting in one of the biggest retcons possible in the series.
Why the big bad is evil.

>Much bigger changes were putting the night elves into the alliance when they were absolutely a neutral third faction, and putting undead into the Horde when they too would have almost no reason to want to be part of that since Sylvanas pretty much seemed to hate the living.

That's progression rather than retconning the past.
That's a big difference and since you didn't notice it you're probably to dumb to understand why.

This. I don't know why it triggers them they made draenei and broken separate. It doesn't change the lore if you think about it at all, just changes they way they look. Considering the broken and draenei still have the same lore in the sense they fled argus to escape the burning legion.

Gonna spoiler this, has to do with Paladin quest line in Legion.

Velen had a kid. Kil'jaedin tortured him for the past 13,000 to turn him on Velen. You fight him at the exodar when the burning legion attacks. Velen had a prophet when his son was first born that showed him holding a eredar's body in his hands. You kill Velen's son despite Velen trying to get you to stop it because he mentions he realizes what his vision meant. In somewhat quiet anger he asks if their chief artificer Rommul, their head engineer pretty much, is still alive. He gets told yes and then goes something along the lines "There is no prophet here. Tell Khadgar the light died this day. Send for Rommul to finish repairs on the Exodar, we're going home"

How would you have done it anon? Kept them broken? They were a literal who in War 3. I sometimes forget one makes an appearance.

Literally NOTHING that happened in War3 as far as character lore, motivations, factions, actual events that happened and were the entire point of the game weren't retconned or absolutely FUCKED beyond recognition.

They inherently changed the history and world that had been building for 3 fucking games. And they can't even keep it straight between expansions. It's a fucking abomination.

Because they can not fucking breed most of the time, this is also true for a lot of fucking settings.
It's like asking why there are no half Khajiit half Orsimer, because of how racial phylogeny works in a stabilized Ada world of TES where genetics do not actually exists and it's about stabilization of forms with all sorts of different pacts and contracts of ye old like Green Pact of Bosmer, Lunar Latice of Khajiit, Mer/Men being generally bound to Mundus etc.
If it's fantasy why do you think that genetics has to exist? More importantly why should completely different races breed if genetics DO exist?

They did get fucked but not completely. The invasion died with Archimonde and after the Lich King's powers started to wane so did his control of the Scourge, so the surviving human kingdoms in the south managed to regroup. The north got royally fucked by Arthas & Co, Sylvanas and her goons and all the random dreadlords vying for control.

The invasion got stopped before the entire continent was overrun and judging by Garithos' and the Blood Elves' campaigns in the north there seems to be some attempts at recapturing it.

Now I want you to do your best with using your brain.

Here's a simple timeline.

Sargeras Corruption - Warcraft 3 - WoW - TBC

When the night elves joined up with the humans and their rabble we're between Wc3 and WoW.
The story of the games progressed and it happened after everything else had happened.
That is why the alliance is progression.

It is different from the draenei change, since we would be between WoW and Tbc in terms of story, but they go back and change stuff that happened even before wc3.

As we've already established you're a dumb person so it is understandable that you misunderstand.
>>
>>337919306
Don't worry about it. WoD was a mistake and the AU is pretty much non canon. Only thing you need to know is the the original timeline Maarad died and that the legion, as wrathion predicted in MoP, is invading azeroth.
>>
>>337919040
Stormwind wasn't a thing though. It was pretty much completely destroyed in WC2 by deathwing and gorefiend when they were trying to rebuild it.

They retconned this though, which is the point I was making.

>>337919579
WoW started out what, seven years after the events of the Second War? Deathwing and Gorefiend wasn't in the picture then so there's a time window where Stormwind could've been rebuilt. That doesn't answer where the hub of southern human power was at the time but given that they scrapped having Gnomeregan as a player hub due to not wanting faction city imbalance it goes without saying they can't have a dozen human kingdoms and cities all over the place.

Lorewise Dalaran was still there, so was Stromgarde IIRC (might've been in a rough shape though) and that fortress they built in the Blasted Lands close to the portal.

Still, with Arthas' purge of Stratholme and the foiled BL invasion it isn't infeasible that a decent bulk of human power remained in the south.

Not really. Ever notice when you start as undead you're rep is really low with the other factions? It's more of a "trust you enough to fight with me but not sleep with me" kind of deal. Also Slyvanas takes over in War 3 so it expaneded that.

It sounds as if you're being entitled going "Warcraft 3 was the last warcraft" and you made it your head cannon when blizzard wasn't done with it. So now you throw a hissyfit because your head cannon didn't stop and time kept moving.

No we havent. Void gods are the new ultimate bad guy that Sargeras tries to defeat with the burning legion. The void gods ingame are just nicknamed that and Blizzard is too lazy to come up with any new names so they just went with that.

pandaren were a joke. First in the WC3 undead campaign by catapulting a horde of trees you could find a waterfall that gave you an easter egg. Then in the TFT campaign you could get one after getting to an extra level (to unlock it you get into an area was burning exploding falling sheep, dont tell me that is seriious lore too). And demon hunter blades had their symbol changed with a panda face too because of reasons. But none of these were because pandaren were a serious addition/race. On chen in the extra horde campaign might be legit.

the absolute worst is this "demons can only be killed forever in the twisting nether" nonsense

shit makes no sense - how are the legion falling for the same tricks if theyve died to them before

Except it's shitty writing. If removes all consequences from any events of the past or future ones. Everyone is immortal, entire civilizations that were destroyed just come back to life because ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ it's been a while. And because it's an MMO everything is stuck in an eternal stalemate where no giant world-ending battles will ever occur again because it wouldn't pander to whoever lost.

It removed the feeling that the story actually mattered and was interesting, which was the cornerstone of Blizzard games all the way up until WoW. It ruined my favorite game company.

http://wow.gamepedia.com/New_Stormwind_%28WC2_Orc%29

Here's the mission right here, the people trying to rebuild Stormwind were supposed to have been wiped out.

>where everyone grows up?
Everyone didn't just grow up. People who died came back to life, entire seasons were just glazed over, everyone got a second chance, went to college on a football scholarship and became a fucking doctor and married supermodels.

If that's the analogy you want to use, that's WoW lore.

And I literally just did the same thing. If YOU have a claim YOU prove it. Maybe you should play the game.

There is no way they will let the players keep the same weapons for ANOTHER expansion, so its either going to be new, more powerful ones or returns to old style of boss drops.

You're making it pretty dramatic. It's a fucking fantasy world where there is literally time traveling dragons existing. If you can't handle something simple as "dalaran was destroyed, let's rebuild it." then you're a fucking idiot. There is nothing "lazy" about it? I'm sure you would have complained about why it's not rebuilt after all these years.

What the fuck ever happened with Knaak? It's like they were sucking his dick and then decided to purge his Gary Stu and Mary Sues one day.

Could have sworn it was the undead mission with the meatwagons and kelthuzad ashes. There was the secret panderan relaxation spring towards the west half if the map

It was a half assed way to recoup the lost money in trying to redo the outland leveling zones (like cataclysm) but decided it was better to just make them new zones, as they got better ideas from it.

That's not how burden of proof works you moron.

1: You had a claim.
2: I disputed that claim.
3: It turns out that you have nothing to support your claim.
4: Fuck off.

I don't remember anything specific about them being attacked, Daelin says something to Jaina about her being to young to see what the orcs did to their homeland, but that could probably mean the Eastern Kingdoms in general.
