What's the one oversight that stuck most with you?

[Justpassing]

I'd have to say it was the Broken Shore when Varian and Sylvanas were doing back and forth - when Sylvanas wasn't actually appointed to Warchief yet. I mean we knew it was happening as players but obviously Varian didn't. It really didn't make sense

[Rend Blackhand]

Ok she wasn't warchief yet but she's still the most experienced military leader the Horde had at the time and still is so maming her in charge of the fight makde sense.

[Super Dickmann]

What do you call an oversight? If it's just something the devs missed - all of the table missions in BFA, blissfully non-canon. For a specific example, Stillwater being alive and leading when he was sentenced to true death.

If you mean just a pet peeve, then Garrosh and the theramore survivors sticks out the most.

Then Saurfang should've spearheaded the Lordearon defense.

The rest of the Horde not pointing Baine out for being a spineless treacherous piece of trash

The rest of the Horde not pointing Baine out for me a spineless treacherous piece of trash

One of the great tragedies after BFA will be that I won't have the pleasure of seeing Nathanos and Sylvanas soundly take the piss out of Baine every time he bitches.

[Justpassing]

Thanks for bainebombing my thread in the first page guys. I mean, I guess there aren't enough baine threads to go around, right?

[Rend Blackhand]

Well

1. He kind of was on the frond lines
2. Sylvanas is like hundreds of yeards old and has more xp than he does

The fact that noone, not even Garrosh, ever calls Jaina out on her "neutrality" bullshit and everyone paints her as a victim.

In all fairness, Garrosh did a lot of stuff the other major characters should've done already - except becoming the Orc Hitler. I mean personally I'd love Horde to stay an Orc-centric utopia but yeah, he kinda took it a little too far...

Adding to this, the story pretending that Garrosh started the war despite Varian being the one to declare it in Wrath.

[LuminaL]

everything about night elves. its not an oversight, its THEE oversight.

[KaPe]

Either Broken Shore, where Alliance somehow cannot see what's happening with the Horde, even though they have a gunship right there.

Or Azerite, which - despite supposedly being So Incredibly Important - we don't see used at all. There's one super tank used at the Undercity, and, well, that's it. Random shity side factions like Ashvane use them for explosives and the like, but the main ones? Nope. This is one of the reasons we even have this war and it's completely absent.

Voss seemingly following Sylvanas despite pledging to end all necromancers.

I've had to add "seemingly" though after reading some of her rogue-only dialogue. Glad blizzard added the extra chat dialogue to her at some point in beta because when I first heard about it I was exaggeratedly miffed.

It's recency bias, but I really fucking loathe the Derek Proudmoore bullshit. I feel like it encapsulates everything that's wrong with the current WoW storytelling. Stories that bend, break and outright retcon lore in favor of something that's bombastic and visceral. Consitency be damned, it's shock value that matters.

How the pillars of creation were used to seal the Temple of Elune during the Sundering while the Tidestone of Golganneth was destroyed by Azshara a bit before that.

That, or how Garona turned out.

The ending of WoD where Grom gets scot-free despite having been a genocidal warmonger. Sure he helped us with Archimonde, but thats not nearly enough for the victims to even consider keeping him around. Now in BFA he somehow managed to be the leader of the Mag'har, at least until the end of the scenario. WoD just had bad writing all over the place which is now showing in BFA aswell.

Plus the fact that we save Gromm ass from Fel Lord Zakkun, helped Lantresor face de Bunring Blade Clan so he became our follower in Draenor and a few years latter we go back and NO ONE REMEMBER US.
