I find it most fun that a whoppin 11 people or so gathered for this epic moment!

The very first Night Elf chapter in TFT is in Aszhara which was somehow retconned by WoW into a barren land for some reason; hey they love retcons so doesn't matter now
Where else would you put the port of Nendis and the Night Elven villages on the eastern coast? They're not on Winterspring and Darkshore is at the east

it was just datamined back in 8.1 but became official now; but somehow they still haven't managed to make it decent

Man that was so cringey.
Blood Elves were based on a STRONG request from a poll of Asian players where many remarked on the Horde side that they and their girlfriends wanted a non-creepy femme race to play (Source)
Most underwhelming WoW cinematic I've seen in a while. Night elves deserve more.....
Uuuh when does this play? What is this the end to?
Besides it being lame (ingame "cutscenes" are shit anyway, might as well have them just play the RP dialogue like before), I'm kinda confused what this is for actually.

Downsizing affects everyone, especially after a recent genocide.
You are welcome, Metzen. I hope you won't fuck up my underground expansion idea.
The quality of in-game cutscenes has been shocking lately. It's like Blizzard are trying to copy FFXIV's style of storytelling but with the bare minimum of effort. The dialogue is pretty underwhelming as well - though night elves have long suffered from dubious writing ever since Cataclysm. There's a very stark contrast between how they were written back when the game first launched and how they're written now.
About the Dark Legacy comic, I was actually pleasantly surprised that the "loot 3 chests" daily is retroactive, and if you happen to loot some before picking up the quest, it still counts it for you and the quest will start at 1/3 or whatever.
More effort put into that DL Comic
Do people actually like the black nightelf eyes? They look horrendous imo.
Well that cutscene (not cinematic) had me cringing all over the place...
Several thousand year experienced leader still thirsting for vengeance not knowing any better.
what?
Ingame events rarely win even less so when it’s the pc doing them as the pc is made non canon or replaced by an npc in the lore all the time. Blizzard was pretty clear that the short story’s they put out with the pre patch were what was canon and every thing post pre patch treat it that way.
For the Kaldorei!!!
You can thank people like Steve Danuser like that. Didn't know who he was till recently but lost all respect and faith in him the moment I found out he literally made Blightcaller a thing again so he could self insert himself into the game to be "close" to Sylvanas.
I get he isn't the sole person in charge of where the narrative goes but with people like him in charge I think things are only going to get worse. Most of the people who truly knew the lore are gone or on other projects and it shows.

Honestly if they are gonna go in game ones they need to make them like the "higher" quality ones we got all throughout BfA. The one at the end of Battle for Lordaeron and the one before the second Siege of Orgrimmar. I know those are probably cost much more but either do those or don't do them at all.
You really can tell they have been looking at the rise of Final Fantasy and trying to adopt things from it. They just aren't putting in the work for it yet. I am hoping that Shadowlands steps it up some but I just have no faith it will yet.
