    i would say the game doesn't "cater" to a faction, but it does cater to some races more than other.

    Agreed, it caters to the Orcs more than every other race, the only race who had an entire expansion themed around them.

    Enough with the Orc catering.
    The Void. A force of infinite hunger. Its whispers have broken the will of dragons... and lured even the titans' own children into madness. Sages and scholars fear the Void. But we understand a truth they do not. That the Void is a power to be harnessed... to be bent by a will strong enough to command it. The Void has shaped us... changed us. But you will become its master. Wield the shadows as a weapon to save our world... and defend the Alliance!

    Blizzard has never done anything good for the blood elves ever, thinking they would start that with Midnight is just delusional. Not while there are high elf and void elf fans they need to cater to.

    Actually humans and night elves are the races that get the most love from the devs. Also lol why should Anduin be there? Lor'themar handing the whole kingdom to the alliance just because he asks niceley? Not happening.

    BEING THE BAD GUY IS NOT AND NEVER WILL BE FOCUS IN A POSITIVE WAY.

    Why do you even have a troll for PFP when we all know you hate the not passive Horde deeply?

    Why try to argue that Anduin won't be a main character of Midnight, only to end up disappointed in 2025?

    Best to accept this from the beginning.

    This is why I can't take Horde players seriously.

    They convince themselves that Garrosh isn't getting villain-batted with Theramore, only to get disappointed.

    They convince themselves that Sylvanas isn't getting villain-batted with Teldrassil, only to get disappointed.

    They convince themselves that Anduin (the main protagonist of TWW) won't be in Midnight, only...

    Yeah, maybe learn from past failures, and start applying Occam's Razor more often.

    Nothing to accept you got alot of headcanon.

    As long as it's not about Sylvanas or the Night Elves to be abused by the story again.

    You will make a thread in 2025 called "Why is Anduin in Quel'Thalas?"

    You know it, I know it, everyone knows it.

    Sylvanas and Kael'thas defined the thalassian elves. No way around that.

    2026 at best TWW has to last at least 2 years.

    That's funny, because the first Thalassian Elves are actually Alleria (1996 with Warcraft II: Beyond the Dark Portal) and Vereesa (2001 with Day of the Dragon).

    Sylvanas only came in 2002 with WC3 and Kael'thas the year after with the expansion.

    Alleria and Vereesa are literally the first Thalassian Elves who appeared in Canon. It is Alleria and Vereesa who introduced us to the race. Sylvanas and Kael'thas came MUCH later.

    Alleria didn't have lore until the novel came out. Sylvanas was fully voice acted and appeared in many books between now and Warcraft 3.

    No. They said that they plan the saga to have already finished before 2030 and that they are interested in a 18-months expansion plan. Clearly, Midnight is not going to last until 2028, nor is TLT going to last until 2030.

    By next year's Blizzcon, they will already reveal all the major plot beats of Midnight. There you will see Anduin on the big screen -- Yet again.

    Anduin is here to stay. He is not going anywhere. They did not give him an entire new glow-up just for one expansion, read between the lines.

    Irrelevant.

    Sylvanas literally did not define what Thalassian Elves are unless you never played WC2 or read any of the interim novels between WC2 and WC3 (which was 6 years, by the way).

    TWW comes out this year still. If each gets 2 years we can make it before 2030. Do the math

    Also lol not taking the bait. Easy to avoid.

    I don't thing Vareesa will ever get any important focus outside of being Alleria's and Sylvannas' sister. She's an uninteresting OC from Knaak, whose OCs have been mostly wiped out (Rhonnin, Krasus). She would work as the leader of High Elf allied race but I doubt it'll ever happen when both void and Blood elves can have the HE skin.

    If any of them is to die it will be her since Blizzard's trying hard to forget Knaak ever worked for them.

    Uhm, No. If each gets two years, TLT will end in 2030 (which is not what they want). If each gets 18 months, TLT will end in February 2029 (assuming TWW launches in August). Which is what they want.

    Do ThE mAtH, he says. Well, I'm sure you know Math better than Me, after all you spend all your days counting the number of dead Horde quest-givers and vendors since 2004. You must be a champion at Maths.
