Unlock Mag'har orcs. If you have already, then it's on you if you don't understand what is going on.

I have. There is still no explanation. Grom’s daughter just says there were years of peace or whatever and then Yrel broke it. There was no reason for peace between the maghar and draenei

do that 2 lore developers REALLY believe that shit they are talking ?

brutally hillarious...

Glad I jumped ship 3-4 months ago... Final Fantasy XIV has suuuch a good story going for it... I had forgotten what it was like to play an MMO with story and RPG elements.

I didn't think these things could get any worse than Ion's, but at least Ion made a very poor attempt at answering questions.

This is just an hour of these two about one step away from sucking each another off live.

>HAHA NO SPOILERS THOUGH
>ESPECIALLY THE STUFF WITH [Character]

LOL!

Well, I heard the word "meaningful" alot, and, uh..........?. Didn't get much else out of it really. Feel like I kind of wasted my time.

And here I thought this was actually going to be a Q&A. Sometimes I have to shake my head and agree with others that Blizzard seems to be out of touch sometimes.

The in game story is planned out months and sometimes years in advance.

But hey lets blame everything to Christie Golden what is wrong on BFA

My six year old son could write a better story than these jokers

IMO, it is as horrible as BFA is.

[Zulkhan]

Seriously, what the hell that was supposed to be? Not a "Q&A" for sure. What's the fucking point of asking questions among themselves while showing the most embarassing display of self-gratification ever witnessed during these events? I only managed to resist until the thirtieth minute then I just gave up. What a waste of time.

Or why should we feel sad for Grom's death. I mean, the guy deserved it.

Feel free to have your opinion. For me personally, FF XIV blows current WoW out of the water. More fun Class design, more engaging storytelling, especially the expansions; Heavensward and Stormblood, the freedom of activity, the lack of RNG-Inception, more engaging music, especially on many boss fights. My guess is you haven't even finished Realm Reborn.

I've finished it but for some reason I couldn't get engaged as other people. The game feels too instanced at times, it had some good moments but that's actually how I'd describe the game. I love Dragoons though, the classes were well thought out.
