Sylvanas is the one who said the Blelfs should be allowed in the Horde and is on good terms with Lor'themar.
>>
>>342290381
Up until MoP/Cata Sylvanas was actually a relatively normal ruler. She didn't like the Trolls/Orcs for obvious reasons, but she went out of her way to ensure the well-being of Blood Elves.

Then MoP pretty much ruined her entire character to turn her into a villain.

No, he's dead.

Realistically, Lor'themar should and will join the alliance because they have the least tension with the races within the alliance, second maybe to the taurens.

If not for the rebellious sunreavers (aka gameplay reasons) cockblocking Lor'themar, the blood elves would have joined the Alliance.

It's just that blizzard is always busy in putting their favorite wank material in the spotlight they forgot to put writing onto any other races of the games.

Most of the Undead dont mind their undeath on vary few have reacted negatively. They'd rather be undead with a mind rather than dead or mindless undead. Thats the difference between her and the Lich King. Her undead have their own wills and can move on where as the lich kings minions are mindless or direct thralls.

lrn2read

also, my opinion doesn't represent Alliance, all the characters I play seriously in the game are undeads and I have never even dream of making a blood elf character because the male model is so gay.

With your logic, they shouldn't be in the horde either because they have no relations with any other race in the horde save for the undead, they should even harbor some ill feelings with being in the same front with trolls even though they are darkspears.

Sylvanas is legitimately the WORST character in all of warcraft at this point
if this was a fanfiction character it'd be one of the biggest and best examples of mary sues
heck depending on how you take wow lore compared to warcraft lore as a whole the mary sue tag may even apply full on

>>342292054
It's all in the fluff, you wouldn't know it if you didn't read quest text and shit, and other material outside the game, but being undead fucks you up. Some progress inexorably towards becoming mindless undead, some become crazy evil with a complete personality change, some just suffer all the time due to being able to feel themselves rotting, there are lots of problems that arise from being undead.

Another fun thing to note: Death Knights experience extreme suffering if they do not inflict pain upon another being regularly. I don't think this was ever referenced in-game, but it's true.
>>
>>342292643
Because they're sentient and alive through undeath, they want to live. If you were brought back you wouldnt want to die all over again would you? The same reasons the Death Knights still want to live.
>>
>>342291217
>"Her race has to survive"
>undead
>a race

The Forsaken may be a faction but undeath is a condition, not a race. Most intelligent undead are either genocidal (like high-ranking Scourge) or else just sort of believe "eh, I'll learn to live with it." She has no obligation to perpetuate the existence of undead creatures, and in doing so she's just continuing a crime against the cycle of life.

The only reason why you would ever create more undead is either to control them as an army, or to populate your plague-filled towns because you'll be lonely without the company of others who are eternally damned. In either case, it just makes Sylvanas a terrible person to actually want undeath to persist.

What the fuck is tension, you braindead butt boy? You mean like leading a people who assassinated the last Dwarven ambassador, that kind of tension? You mean like harboring the man who made bombing Theramore possible, you mean that kind of tension? You mean running sorties to disrupt the Alliance expedition upon the Thundering Isle, you mean that kind of tension? If you actually played the game you'd know about most of this shit, but the Belfs have been dependable members of the Horde for a long time now, which means they've done a lot to fuck over the Alliance. They have good relations with the other peoples within it, and the Alliance views them unfavorably. There are some dickbag racists among the elfs that do hate the Darkspear, but Lor'themar is not one of them. He has no incentive to just randomly abandon the Horde, and I really doubt the Alliance would welcome him with open arms.
>>
>>342292828
Both parties wanted Arthas fucking dead because of it though, and obviously if you're undead you might as well keep on keeping on, but why deny those who aren't the peace of death? Why force them up, just to wander hated by your friends and family, and "persuaded" to join the side you fought all your life, simply because "hey we're undead too!"

They also failed to put in a valid reason for the gnomes to not fully utilize all their technical power against the horde like how the goblins did ever since their entry into the horde.

There have so many good possibilities of story telling but they just expand on the stuffs that they think will sell the best, it's understandable but it's a fucking waste.

Hopefully they will finally tell of something of Tidehunter's fate in legion, that's my biggest grip with WoW lore so far.

order of succession. Sylvanas has been on the horde council the longest. Garrosh was only put there because Thrall said so, and look how that turned out

a decent story to tell with that could be the gnomes having done the calculations and come to the conclusion that sharing their most powerful weaponized technology with the world would lead to warfare and death on levels they don't even want to begin to comprehend so they have a massive coverup going on keeping taps on all their most brilliant minds as well as several high value targets in the other races

ITs pretty established that early undead did try to go back to their homes but the non dead humans would not have them often mistaking them for scourge. This lead to undead having a vendetta against humans.

Also they don't have any other places to go. Undead are not exactly popular, especially unaffiliated ones.

This is blantently false, even the valkyr have said there is no loyalty involved in the reanimation process. Only the lich king had the power to dominate upon rebirth, Sylvannas isnt that powerful.
>>
>>342294078
The second biggest reason the Forsaken have a massive stick up their ass is because humans scorned them for being "unnatural", despite now being their old selves in mind if not in body.

But then DKs got accepted in the Alliance, so I guess Blizzard's stopped giving a shit.

That's fucking stupid. The living's response is perfectly reasonable and the dead would probably do the exact same shit were they still living. You can be salty about not being let into your home but having a vendetta against all humans because some dumb peasants were too dumb to realize that you weren't trying to brutally murder them when you said hello is retarded.

Scourge are mindless undead, the forsaken have full sentience. There is a difference.
>>
>>342293843
It still doesn't make sense for Worgen DKs to exist since the "sentient" ones did not leave Gilneas until Cata. But I'm sure you have some retarded, convoluted explanation for that.
>>

forsaken almost invariably use that full sapience for evil so that makes them even worse
>>
>>342294475

That happened only thanks to Tirion who guaranteed for them.
>>
>>342294692
But the point still stands, they were raised to let death reign and end all the living then regained their will. It is perfectly reasonable for the humans to not like the dead since a few weeks ago they'd be trying to gnaw eyeballs out.
>>
>>342294813
There are plenty of "normal" undead. Only the alchemists tend to be "Evil" and that started because of Putricide.
>>
>>342294692
But if you are raised by the Lich King you are technically a Scourge, Death Knights start of without any free will. And since Syl was one she is still part of this Scourge and in turn continues to make more even if they don't have a master to follow.

Their fear is not unreasonable since you can't just suddenly say your enemy is peaceful suddenly.
Either way it's unnatural.

There are lots of quests involving torture murder and undeniably evil acts for all the races.

>MUH DARK LADY
>MUH FORSAKEN
>MUH OUTCASTS
Forsaken are essentially rebellious teenagers in the form of a race.
I really liked Undead before Cata when they actually were tortured outcasts just trying to find a place in the world and were living in the ruins of their previous homes.

Now they're war mongering cunts who literally just got bored after the Lich King was defeated and decided to start raping the landscape with green goo and ugly Gothic Architecture.
Then we have every horny retard and average female players role model Sylvanas
>I HATE THE LICH KING WE ARE CURSED AND FORSAKEN
>hey the Lich King is dead
>ALRIGHT LETS START DO EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS DOING

>MUH RACE MUST SURVIVE
No your race should not continue. You are not a race. You are abominations who's mere existence was implied to be suffering, at least that's what people assumed from almost 6 years of collective bitching from Forsaken npcs

The Lich King is dead. Either just die or fuck off and stop ruining Alliance shit. I want Forsaken posters out of my kingdoms

Depends. There are some parallels with the mass mc deaths of Warhammer The End Times. That storyline featured the literal end of the classic Warhammer universe and the reformat in something more similar to...err...Heroes of the Storm? I hope they are not going in that direction.

The Horde wouldn't be the Horde if they didn't make the worst possible decisions at every corner. The orcs are born retards. The whole moral of Warlords of Draenor is, unless I'm mistaken, is that the orcs would have become slaves to the legion no matter what anyone did to try and save them.

Should have been Ogres for the horde and Pandaren for the alliance. The Blood/High Elves should have been on the brink of complete extinction by then and the Draenai were a fucking bit part in an expansion pack. Their story should have been about two lines of dialog.

Wrong. Fan fiction tier are Rhonin and Anduin.
>>
>>342297190
Horde needed an "attractive" race for faggots and girls to play and they retconned the Draenai into smoothed skinned blue Arabic barbie dolls because they were afraid Alliance players would sperg out if they were given an "ugly" race.

It was also done to give Shamans and Paladins to the opposite faction. I loved TBC but they shoehorned a lot of shitty lore to justify game balance

With Draenai being retconned into space goats who's race has a huge emphasis on technology it makes no sense for them to be shamans really.
That and Blood Elves literally had to kidnap the Naaru and steal the light
>>
>>342297481
They can't figure out how to make female Ogres look, so we'll never have playable Ogres.

Yeah pretty much. They felt the horde needed a pretty race so the shoehorned in blood elves. It worked too almost the whole horde are blood elves. I think originally they were planing on making the pandaren the alliance race in BC but switched to draenai.

they could have fixed this shit easily with no retconning by having death knights that were functionally identical to paladins as part of the forsaken and an engineer class that could only be gnome that was functionally identical to the shaman.

Death Knights could have had blood as a healing spec and the "engineer" class would have used turrets instead of totems and lightning generators and first aid machines.

All they had to do was think slightly outside of the box and they could have made it work but its too late now the lore is completely off the rails.

At this point each spec might as well be its own class. What really ruins "class fantasy" is Ret/Prot Paladins only having Flash of Light as a healing spell.

Orcs, trolls, tauren, goblins, undead, blood elves.

Six races. One race has 30% of the market share. So, yes, a steep plurality of the players on Horde are Belfs.

They should make them look like male ogres but with big "ogre mounds". They should be as bald as males too but have hair pieces made of various dumb things. Like they see orcs with pointy hair so they put a bunch of nails on their head, or they have a wig made of a whole animal hide.

I mean, everyone not an orc would be DEAD, but yeah, for the Horde and all that jazz.

Seriously, they need to let Lor'themar step up and be Warchief, it's just a natural development. He hates politics but he loves his people, and he knows the only way to truly guarantee their safety is to provide a stabilizing force to the Horde. One that isn't preoccupied with grandiose plans of genocide and domination like Sylvanas, or naive and untested like Baine.

Him with a Saurfang right-hand man would be the perfect leadership for the Horde that would provide a strong hand to deal with foes but a wise and guiding one for establishing a permanent, peaceful place for them on Azeroth.
