..Yeah, because there was SO MUTCH of her before. Aside from " I hate the horde, i love elves and a human"...wow. Such story!
Aside from that, 1k years will do that to people away from home, fighting against an army of demons, experimenting in void and such.
Because like the other High Elves, Alleria isn't a backstabbing bitch that joined the Horde.
Well the only reason Silvermoon won't be Alliance territory in BfA is because of gameplay reasons (=> they're too lazy to move Quel Thalas to EK and update it)... so they came up with the idea that Quel'Thalas and the Azuremyst/Bloodmyst Isles are Alliance/Horde's last strongholds xD
... so really, don't take any new Blood Elf / High Elf lore too seriously (or well tbh, Belfs are part of the Horde due to gameplay and marketing reasons too)

While it doesn't speak of the alliance as a whole, all through the 2nd stretch of Suramar campaign, Tyrande was kind of an abusive jerk to them. I noticed it right away.
Having said that, I do agree that they should be neutral, and probably HM Tauren as well.

It isn't laziness, its priority.
You might think updating Silvermoon is the most important and awesome thing they should ever do, but lets be honest - what would it actually add to the story/game? They spent all that time updating the old zones for Cata and people just zipped right through/past it to get to the 81+ stuff. And they even admitted that the endgame stuff suffered for all the time they spent on that.
So that's probably informing their decisions to leave the belf/draenei areas as they are. Why spend weeks/months on that when people are just gonna blast through whatever quests send them into those areas? So they can say they did, or to make a couple hundred people demanding flight in those areas happy?
I'd rather that time and those resources go toward new stuff, personally.
Appreciate your time with friends and family while they're here. Don't wait until they're gone to tell them what they mean to you.
Can't believe such a bad character like Alleria made it live. Her only reason of existence is to promote and sell Void Elves and that's pretty much it. I was very upset when they pulled Turalyon and Alleria out of Chris Metzen's ass to sellout this story.
It’s almost as if people like you never read to end of the book. By the end of it, yeah she fell in love with the human light bulb and it wasn’t just a quick rump in the sack. She realize it after khadgar had his emotianal breakdown how he’s never going to get any. By the end she did care for her comrades and they were no longer just a means to an end. But yeah let skip all that character development and just focus on the beginning of her story.

Alright, guess that counts as the whole faction being jerks to the point where the NB join the faction that aims to kill the opposite one, nice.
Cows join the herd cause cows, yeah FOR THE HERD am I right haha, but draenei high on light can't join the other draenei... why?
Dwarves make no sense joining alliance, eh? My boy, maybe pay attention to the story, it makes more sense than all the horde allied races together
Yeah yeah I know that it's more about priorities and tbh I'm not a Blood Elves fan
But yeah, my point is that the reasoning behind many lore decisions regarding Blood Elves (and thus also Alleria) is simply due to gameplay reasons (obviously this also applies to many other things in this game, but it's not as 'bad' as with Blood Elves) and not because the writers at Blizzard would've really wanted it like that.
This whole discussion exists for one and only reason.
Blizzard lore writers are forced to produce lore AFTER the game designers decide which race goes where, instead of actually producing consistent lore facts and using it for gameplay reasons.
Of course, Blizzard makes and sells games, not stories. The stories are just backgrounds for the game. It seems in order to make "strange" decisions on the game lore, if gameplay is on the front for them. As for any discrepancies, they can always produce audio, cinematics, books to bridge things that seem inconsistent inside the story of the game (while at the same time, confusing the players who don't/can't have access to those outside sources).
So the choice is between to not pay too much attention to the Lore, as it serves a "higher" (for the company) purpose, or to bash the game for not have lore consistency.
We have seen retcons before. Discussing any of those is just for the sake of discussion, aka fun, but for the matter at hand, is futile.

They bubbled after WotA. Actually without Nightborne (in WotA time night elves), kaldorei resistance would be ambushed in the last attack on zin ashari and would fail.
NEs think Nightborne are cracked junkies.
I didn't say DI dwarves make no sense. I said they are part of the Alliance since cata.

Pfff - Sylvanas died long ago. She has nothing to do with the monster that is leading the horde now. Alleria has every right to end this abomination imitating her sister.
The Nightborne don't join the Horde because Tyrande was mean to them, they join the Horde because they need allies and found more similarities with the Blood Elves than with the Night Elves, who rather shun the arcane ways of the Nightborne.
If Alleria managed to sway Lor'themar into joining the Alliance, the Nightborne would have joined it aswell.
