I have always liked Sylvanas as a character. but I have to say.. If I lived in this universe.. I would rather follow the Alliance. I don't see the moral grey in what Sylvanas did. Even Nothanos is questioning her (freaking Nothanos). So I am not sure what else needs to be said other then killing innocent civilians is an evil act. You can say whatever you want to justify it... it's war, that's their law, whatever.. it's an evil act regardless of it's legality.
We were better off with Garrosh. Can't we resurrect him somehow?
I'm really happy Genn got some (pretty respectable) development into becoming a more fitting shadow to Anduin. I also enjoyed the acknowledging that he tends to go behind his back from the other side. It's to the point that I will likely stop ragging on Genn being a terrible (fitting) character in the story. He can still be the shadow of the alliance who despises sylvanas, but Anduin acknowledging him as that and not some glorious father figure is nice too.
I think from what we've seen they went overboard with the paranoid sylvanas aspect. It feels like they are honestly setting her up to be removed from the forsaken and calia take the reins in a more peaceful era. Possibly even as a dungeon/raid boss.
I heavily disliked the holy undead calia. I'll wait to see more on that, but it just feels wrong to me right now.
i'd like to think maybe her actions here has shattered nathanos' idea of his lady, but the way he behaves in the beta is still absolute loyalty.
should it turn out that he puts an arrow through her skull, then it'd come somewhat out of nowhere. but it would be a good thing, to say the least.
she's legitimately evil, and there's no redeeming point to her. the sooner she is gone from the horde, the better.
I'm comparing countries that are split apart and led by opposing factions.

I'm not comparing warfares. I'm comparing people trying to sneak past a border to be with their families and getting killed for it by their leaders because it might "make the population think things"
