With us going to another realm in Shadowlands, i am getting so many WoD flashbacks that it nearly hurts.
Not flashbacks for the mid-expansion content drought or the story overall, but for the complete abandon of the Horde/Alliance storyline.
BFA have set many changes in motion. The Horde is without a single leader, changing into a council style leadership. The Alliance is a bit in disarray, with Tyrande and Genn going for blood against Sylvanas, and unhappy about the peace with the Horde. We might even have a goblin leader on the horizen..
But i just feel like they are gonna forget all about that for the entirety of Shadowlands. Just like with WoD, everything will happen in Shadowlands when it comes to story and content, and the outside world is gonna be frozen in stasis, completly forgotten about and set to take on dust, which i think is a sad thing. WoD made me lose connection with the factions, making the leadership of Vol'jin feel like a heartbeat and make the overall story fall to a halt.
With Sylvanas proberly being beaten early on, won't it just be like with Garrosh from WoD? What do you think? Do you have a bad gut feeling like i, when it comes to the location and focus of the future story or do you believe, that they can connect the faction stories with what happens in Shadowlands?
