SO yeah, I got into the Warcraft universe at the 'start' I think: Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, got into the idea, the name gives it away :P Followed up with Warcraft 2 and its expansion, Beyond the Dark Portal.
I didn't have a good computer then for many years, so I missed out on Warcraft 3. When WoW first came out I knew if I started playing I'd be hooked, so I didn't pick it up :P
I started playing during TBC, and the world was a very different place to what I'd remembered. I won't list all the questions, but as some were on a "who are these blue elves and why have the proper elves joined the horde?" I could see I had some catch up.
Cue a fun evening listening to Pendulum for the first time and reading Wowwiki for about 7 hours lol.
ANYWAY, to get on topic, I've noticed there seems to be discontent with the direction Lore took during TBC, but from my perspective all the TBC, Vanilla, TFT and WarIII lore was one storyline (as it were). Those points in the story where people more closely following it would have anticipated what decisions would be made never occured for me as the decisions were made before I "joined in"
So yeah whats the beef, what coulda shoulda woulda happened if you had the reins of TBC lore? What were you expecting that didn't happen? I'm just curious
