    Here's a better idea. How about you have each faction tell half of the story? Like the Alliance tells 1 half? While the Horde tells the other? Ya know? Like they've always done?

    Disapointed by the dialogue after the cinematic, giving N'Zoth the creds for a minor sign of anger from Anduin. I really enjoyed the cinematic at first, thinking that

    1. Being perfect, young and kinda leading to PEACE at that age went to his head a bit. SOME signs of pride and elitism taking over.
    and
    2. The stress of always fighting, even after just finally reaching peace again, causing some rage.

    I find it ridiculous that NORMAL emotions like these are caused by an Old God.... that's all he can do? Is an Old God the only explanation for some reasonable stress and anger? Egh.

A young ruler having a brief lapse but then reappraising his position and still hearing Wrathion out makes him a better character than if he'd greeted it with the same equanimity he meets everything else.
    Even Jesus got angry and turned tables over and shit at the Synagogue. It's hilarious to think someone that is usually calm can't get angry.

    If ANDUIN AND JAINA are the least insufferable characters of BFA, then you fucked up big time!
    Bwonsamdi is a chad too, I just find they just made him seem 'evil' during the Rastakhan fight. Other than that, he's good

    Also, most people like him, except the ones that die in Zandalar too much
    I don't play WoW anymore smh.

    Er, did you think I was defending the new approach or something? The half and half approach took a mortal wound in TBC and died with the Lich King.

    Well there was a nice one in cata-revamped barrens. Something that actualy showed the conflict as being gray. Propably a fluke though since they tried to repeat it multiple times and failed miserably every time.

    I'm looking forward to him being a minor dungeon boss.

    how long did Anduin survive in the 'Witcher world')
    Ok encrypted model <Broken King of Stormwind> not used, maybe in mystic phase?

    He's not a pacifist or idealist. He's a cold blooded moron, full of himself.

    Composure, maybe. Diplomatically. No.

    I assumed the data-mined "Broken King of Stormwind" version of Anduin would likely appear in the Horrific Vision of Stormwind, where a corrupted Alleria has basically taken over and subverted the entire city to N'Zoth's control.

    Hard to say, then. I don't recall seeing him in the Waking City raid on the PTR, so it's possible it's an object that just isn't in the game.

    Only if we don't kill him and he lives. It would be a shame for them to make a dungeon featuring him, only to kill him off

    Also I think that other than having him in the Other Side dungeon, they shouldn't have him appear somewhere for a while unless it's necessary because I'm worried he has a higher chance of being killed of is he appears more

    Why, both Horde and Alliance players hate him. Beating him into bloody pulp as he screams would be a massive fanservice.

    Most people who hate him probably die too much and get to listen to his sassy voice lines. I personally don't think he's annoying tbh. Might be because I have a sarcastic sense of humor like him.

    Also, Ion referred to him as "our favourite Loa Bwonsamdi!" and said something along the lines of "and how much do we love Bwonsamdi?". So clearly, some people like him. I guess they could also make the dungeon non canon as well
    I don't play WoW anymore smh.
