The fact that Alliance has pussied out when it comes to WM is not to be a surprise. Blizzard can't force people to PvP if they don't want to and the fact that there are so few Alliance players opting in to WM shows that they generally don't give a fuck about PvP'ing. Oh yeah and For Honor another 3 faction system says Hi (from the depths of the barren servers they have). Games with 3 faction systems don't do well. ESO is mostly a PvE game not a PvP game. Their PvP is completely optional and only allowed in certain areas (where you have to travel to in order to partake in it) or instanced. ESO also allows players to join ANY faction with ANY race if they buy a perk in their store or buy an expansion that allows it.
But let's humor you, how would you suggest WoW doing a 3 faction system after 14 years? Do they just add in a whole new faction with whole new races to the game for this third faction? If you are going to suggest certain factions leaving the Horde or Alliance, what would you do with players who like being in the Horde/Alliance but play one of those factions that you suggest would split off?
