It certainly isn't emotionless or remorseless.
Also wars are absolutely full of honour and heroism in fantasy settings such as Warcraft, in fact it's usually a staple for fantasy worlds - the idea of heroic actions.
As I've pointed out before your general misanthropic and gloomy statements have never been an attitude synonymous in Warcraft.

Yes it does. Morality is entirely subjective. The crusades the Christians tortured, murdered, maimed millions of people in the name of God because they believed they were doing the moral thing. The Mayans sacrificed thousands to their gods, and the society thought it was the moral thing to do. Americans thought they were doing the moral thing by moving Indians off of their native lands.
Mortality is subjective.
???
I know morality is subjective that's what I said. What I also said is that just because somebody has different morality doesn't mean they are automatically forgiven especially when their morality directly conflicts with others and usually at their expense.
You mentioned the Crusades, by our standards they were heinous acts of inhumane torture and killing to the point where they are still brought up as examples today as examples of awful acts. Just because their standards were different doesn't mean their actions were any less barbaric and certainly doesn't mean they are forgiveable or deserve sympathy.

Why do you continue to post about a story you dislike that obviously was never created with your preferences in story telling?
(I mean this as an honest question, rather than to badger you)
Comparing irl feelings during a War to a fantasy one is almost night and day different.
Dunno about you, dude, but I've been to the army. The only one time someone's interested in your opinion is when they ask you whether it's navy or ground.
Good. And thanks for the link.He specifically mentions that he was specific to the development team about what Varian is doing, this is is something that is going to happen.
One good thing about ambiguous acts is that you can keep doing them and still be interesting. Genetic experiments? Religious worship? Strong nationalism? My wet dream is to see Forsaken Commissars, Warhammer style.Ofcourse we're not seeing them outside of Lordaeron, regardless of their ultimate aim it's still their first objective, not to mention the simply fact that they can only conquer Lordaeron atm as it's the only zone that's within their reach atm.
I don't think we should raid UC to kill Sylvanas as it's been done twice already pretty much. But I think she's too far gone to have a redemption story of any kind. I just don't see any way in which she can truly grow as a character that doesn't include her death or her going further and further down this new dark path of hers.
Also, try playing The Witcher 1&2. Perfect games in terms of plot, many questions and situations that simply have no right answer or solution, especially in the second game, very nonlinear. And then your uneasy decisions come back and bite you in the ass.

They aren't supposed to be different, or else you'll get funny war, dramatic fishing, and unemotional love. Feelings have to be adequate, otherwise it's a crap of storytelling.
