Blood Elves were based on a STRONG request from a poll of Asian players where many remarked on the Horde side that they and their girlfriends wanted a non-creepy femme race to play (Source)
I disliked his whiney self in TBC but he grew on me in Wrath and early Cataclysm. A more aggressive leader but still honorable. I quite like the Horde Stonetalon quests. And he was well written in the Novel around WOTLK that name escapes me right now.
But then they overdid it and he became a raidboss...
This happened because the developers of old were replaced by 'progressive' ones.
Why not, if they're already at it, give Garrosh a basket of flowers and let him hop around, sharing love and compassion to fellow NPCs around him?
To all those who say it felt out of place, are you kidding me? it was the best line in the whole game.
He was mostly fine to me in Cataclysm, at least in the leveling quests in Cataclysm's low-level zones, like Stonetalon. But then you reached the Cata zones, like Twilight Highlands, and Garrosh become this "RAWR ME ORC SMASH!" that was a prelude to things to come when Blizzard made him fight a dragon, one-on-one and win.
Hey, I was playing with my kid this game about war, killings, murder, genocide, patricide etc and suddenly someone said "bitch". Now I don't know about you, but I don't agree this kind of language is kid friendly.
LOL this thread has made me laugh
I for one would be content with "witch". It's part of Garrosh's character that he looked down on everyone who didn't meet his orcish idea of strength. Referring them by everything from just their race, whelp, bitch, filth, etc.
In all likelihood they probably thought the same but just didn't feel like actually digging up Garrosh's VA and re-recording the line.
I can't even begin to pretend that this is a big deal or anything.
i just played in silverpine forest on an alt and it's still there, is it gone on the ptr?
