Considering what she says there your choices never mattered.

seems theres some extra stuff depending if you sided with sylvanas or saurfang

Well not anymore she isn't... her body isn't supposed to come along for the ride..

Even beyond that what a utterly pointless cutscene it seems more designed to desperately give the forsaken a way to lore wise not support the comic book villain...

Diplomacy is hard for simple minded people...

Should add the 3rd one for the loyalists conclusion... where Sylvanas admits she's in cahoots with N'Zoth/Azshara and she wants to feed the Alliance/Horde armies to them, and then she'll backstab for "Death".

Ok, that was just awful. Visuals were nice as always, but wtf is that writing.

These 2 videos are practically screaming at us that some sort of faction unification is coming.

Which is good, splitting your playerbase in 2 never really made sense from a design standpoint.

Sylv and Nzoth team up, almost win, the factions realize they need to unite for the long term. It's all so obvious.

That loads of old bollocks just left me even more confused.

Taking WAR out of WARcraft is a genius move!
Congratulations writing team!
Blizzard could literally hire The Last Jedi screenwriter and he still wouldn't fuck the story up this bad.

Even so, this would be cinematic #3 where she's used the smokey Banshee stuff. I imagine she's empowered by Xalatath or Nzoth as they even state she's getting stronger every day. I dunno... the Mak'gora, I expected more from. Like, I honestly didn't think they would pull a Gul'dan from the movie. I don't know... I'm not super critical of stuff like this.

Garithos? Kind of.
Camp Taurajo? Blame quillboars, Alliance actually let civilians go.
Internment camps? As opposed to total genocide of orcs?
Purge of Dalaran was Jaina's mistake, but Sunreavers really were working with Garrosh behind Council's back.

Plenty of baddies to be at War with, does not have to be ally vs horde to be Warcraft. Unpopular, true, opinion, I know.

Splitting your playerbase in 2 never made sense from a design standpoint.

This doesn't feel like what Blizz had originally planned for Sylvanus, this feels forced........

And she escapes... Again... WTH...

I just like things making sense and for characters to act in a somewhat consistent manner.

Nothing that happened makes any sense plot wise. Hell lore wise sylvanas died by doing a belly first power slide into frostmourne but now shes a expert hand to hand fighter dispite never using anything but a bow and weird ghost powers?

It's all just so tiresome.

That is unlikely given there was a pre-bfa comic that implied the void was at war with death.

EDIT: Wow I just saw it. Okay, I have no idea what Blizzard is trying to write anymore.

Dead game. Just classic from now on

Terrible!!!

Should've made my post clearer. Updated.
