The Alliance gets the Horde's most popular race. The Horde should get the Alliance's most popular race in return. Alteraci Humans for the Horde!
I make Warcraft 3 Reforged HD custom models and I'm also an HD model reviewer.
I wouldn't be opposed to an Arthas vs. Sylvanas match-up myself, but I think Bolvar deserves the first swing just due to the Shadowlands opening cinematic where she defeats him with the Jailer's apparent assistance. I'd very much like to see a more honest duel between those two, and for Sylvanas to subsequently be broken by the Scourgehammer of Bolvar. That's just me, though.
"We're more of the love, blood, and rhetoric school. Well, we can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, and we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, and we can do you all three concurrent or consecutive. But we can't give you love and rhetoric without the blood. Blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see." ― Tom Stoppard, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead
You're not the only one. I think it'd be ironic and poetic justice if Arthas redeemed himself by killing her and restoring balance to the Shadowlands. Sylvanas dying again at Arthas' hand, but with him getting praised this time, would be hilarious.
Hey, I'd love to see the reaction of her fanboys if that happened.
The Void. A force of infinite hunger. Its whispers have broken the will of dragons... and lured even the titans' own children into madness. Sages and scholars fear the Void. But we understand a truth they do not. That the Void is a power to be harnessed... to be bent by a will strong enough to command it. The Void has shaped us... changed us. But you will become its master. Wield the shadows as a weapon to save our world... and defend the Alliance!
I'd rather not see the screecher or walking coal man at all, but alas it is likely we will see their ugly mugs left right and center through the xpack. Bolvar, Arthas, Sylvanas are characters I really don't want to see at all, in fact I would love if the entire overmind for poor people, alias the lich king nonsense finally dies for good.
You know who I'd like to see die the list is rather long
Turalyon
Alleria
Sylvanas
Vereesa
Illidan
Malfurion
Tyrande
Baine
Anduin
Khadgar
Magni
Arator
Liadrin
Thrall
Zekhan
Jaina
Bolvar
Nathanos
Darion Mograine
Koltira
Valeera
Brann Bronzebeard
Aethas Sunreaver
Calia Menethil
Lillian
Velen
Gallywix
Well I don't have single wow character I like, they are after all very shallow, so it is either neutral or dislike and blizz tends to write characters in such a way that they just grate on my nerves over time. So those with less spotlight are usually the more tolerable and some are just plain trainwrecks from the get go.

Steve Danuser really is the Matt Ward of wow. and for the record that is not a compliment
bfa still puzzle me, it is a watered down version of Legion
the very easy question that i was sure was a 'bug' only to discover it isn't, azerite armor
i was expecting that the armor is different depend on spec, not same traits for all specs, i even made a ticket and asked my rl friend about it, only for him to tell me that they didn't do that this exp (what?)
ehm what? we literally just had in Legion u can change ur traits depend on ur spec, why remove that in BFA ?
- - - Updated - - -
yeah...
The Lich King should always be the biggest badass, not a p8ssy that was shown
Maybe it was fake hope, or idiocy, but when i saw Sylvanas marching towards him i was expecting she will win barely or even lose, not wtf stomp him that hard to disgraceful level
This is like how in MCU they introduce Thanos right click Hulk, even if - as shown later - Thanos isn't that massively OP as he can't even fight Thor with his axe, heck Cap managed to hold his hands, and cap is nothing in compare to Hulk power
The beginning of wisdom is the statement 'I do not know.' The person who cannot make that statement is one who will never learn anything. And I have prided myself on my ability to learn

In terms of gameplay elements, I would say you're right - in terms of narrative and lore, I'd say BfA was considerably underwhelming next to Legion's standards. The big failing of BfA's gimmick was initial Azerite Traits, I'd agree; they were both underwhelming and excessively bland compared to the Artifact Weapon system (which had the dual benefit of being chock full of lore connected both to the current expansion and WoW as a whole).
Azerite Traits struck me as Draenor Perks v2.0 from WoD - random and meaningless buffs that had no connection to the story, and didn't feel immersive at all. Essences at least felt like they had some connection to the story, especially in conjunction with the Dragonflight questlines introducing them.

You aren't obligated to do anything. But when you do things like cut out the part of the quote where I say I have "sympathy that Alliance players didn't like what they got either" and "I've read some good posts form Alliance players who recognize things that have sucked for both sides", so you can type "Stop blaming the Alliance playerbase" and "so kindly stop telling me I should enjoy my situation". Well, it doesn't come off as someone who is trying to have a useful discussion.
But the attacks, unsupported assertions, mis-characterizations, etc. are growing tiresome. But don't let me tell you want to do, keep them up if you think they will help.

that cinematic is by far one of the worst lore moments of this franchise hands down, pure for chock and rule of cool, cause apparently they don't know how to do anything else, it baffles me how the lore team still have their jobs after bfa or a free pass to do another expansion and maybe even the one after shadowlands
