    It would be nice if everyone saying this would read the various links and other posts before repeating this over and over and over. It's not necessary as that's not what is even happening. He's using the old god's power as a weapon, not being corrupted by it and then doing bad stuff.

    The difference is, if you look at the dungeon journal, it looks like he's going to infuse himself with Y'sharrj. His "corruption" is of his own free will, not the usual cop out of "well so and so possessed him". They are going to stick to what they said that he's just a bad apple, but with his lust and obssession for power, how else do you think he would have the power to take on both the Horde and Alliance when he almost lost a fight with Varian one-on-one?

    You just misunderstand OP. He isn't corrupted he is doing such thing with his own free will. He is just a power hungry no old gods or demons are infulencing his actions nope it's his own free will.

    What would you rather have wrong with him? That his standard intention of annihilating everything, including his allies, be the normal orc stance?

    And, I'm not sure what you meant by "I and everyone else seen this coming". It really wasn't a stretch of the mind to see this coming. You didn't need to solve the world's greatest mystery to imagine the possible outcomes.

    the interesting thing is he has demon eyes on his shoulder, so does that mean the fact he made his shoulders from a demon artifact cause the demons to ahve some effect on him.

    No doubt. But if you think about it, the very Lovecraft's novels are extremely hard to even be turned into movies or other kind of similar media, mostly because Lovecraft's narrative is so profound and vast that only the paper writing can fully express it with no bonds at all.

    No, no, no. It's too obvious that is the power of the Old God behind it, Cho'gall had those eyes around his very corpse aswell.

    Agreed, as soon as Lovecraft's type of horror is visible, it loses its impact. Hell, it's why The Dunwich Horror is miles behind for example The Music of Erich Zann in terms of quality (obviously, this is an opinion).

    Yeah that's true. It would be hard to portray in any visual media especially a game like wow where they already struggle to get the story across without books on the side. Anyway, I can still dream.
