    If that is the case, I disapprove targeted and ordered mass harrasment - and yes, such behaviour should be banned, especially while taking into consideration his wide influential possibilities.

    The dialogue is actually good and makes sense. At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Malfurion was liked by a certain dev though who may have decided to axe Ysera for the shock effect in Legion back than and now they make up for that haha.

    Wow, that's pretty lackluster. There's no emotional connection to Malfurion in the first place, so even if in terms of lore it could be a big thing, from a player perspective - it has 0 impact I guess. And once again, cinematic and music departments have to carry the story.

    Kalec could have replaced Malygos.
    Wrathion/ Sabellian/ Ebonhorn will succeed Deathwing in his duties.
    Why they choose to bring Ysera back over developing Merithra character? It ultimately undermines Ysera's story... first she died for no particular reason. Then she played major role in Shadowlands campaign, and now this? Ufff, that's tough story-writing.

    Apparently, the shit writing in the last couple of expansions was not fault of Afrasiabi...

    I am right, you really must be looking for Afrasiabi under your bed every night. . .

    I don't know about that haha, but from my perspective, even though I liked him in warcraft 3, I always felt like they didn't know what to do with him in WoW. So even before this, in my mind I had thought of ways for him to make a great sacrifice. But my headcanon was him becoming one with the new world tree or something.
    A lot of the reactions in the post are very negative, but I hope people will remember that this is just an excerpt and a lot of context is missing. There may be cinematics, quests, more story leading up to it, etc.

    YEah this is so stupid. Let's fuck up with Tyrande some more.

    Why do you think it's good and makes sense? Tyrande never acted like this before, it's extremely out of character, she doesn't constantly stutter, takes pauses and acts like a little girl. And it doesn't make sense that for a Dragon Aspect to resurrect someone needs to die, it has never been stated before.

    He was. He was Metzen's favourite character. Very underused after Wc3 sadly.

    Well it makes sense as it gives a meaning to another one of wow's past "let's axe a famous female character for the shock" stories, other than late GoT style "subverting expectations".

    Malfurion: When she gave her life for mine in Val'sharah, it was not her time.

    Malfurion: And now... the balance may be restored.
    Besides that, Malfurion never really did anything anyways and now he can chill in Ardenweald. He will prolly be back in the cosmic expansion together with Sylvanas, and he may have learned a few new tricks by than. Also, poor Illidan I bet now he would like to leave that Seat of the Pantheon lol.

    Edit: Oh also, yeah sure, having emotions makes one a little girl. I will be gladly stay a little girl forever, thank you.

    So you're only celebrating because a female character comes back to life, a male character dies, and you get to self insert as Tyrande? How... shallow.

    Think they should've just killed him in Darkshore, resulting in the same outcome, but at least something happened instead of squabbles not amounting to much.

    Hah. I was sure that Merithra would be sacrificed to resurrect Ysera, but since nobody cares for her that wouldn't have been impactful enough.

    Time to fuck over Night Elves some more.

    Two currents of shit writing collide to form a proper and powerful shitstorm.

    Why can't we just have... Merithra lead the green Dragonflight, Ysera stay in the shadowlands where she's completely fine and content with, and no one has to die.

    Exactly, let a new generation take over.

    They can pretty much write her from a blank slate because she's barely had any lore around her other than being in Ahn Qiraj and in BFA for a quest or two.

    What in the woke BS is this :’) I think most people are fine with it because he’s been completely underused as a character since WC3 and practically turned into a joke/meme the last few times he’s been used within a story. It’s best they retire him for a while honestly.

  20. #65340
    This comment in the sub post pretty much explains my feelings on the matter.

    F for people who wanted Merithra development.

    Also F for people who liked Malfurion?

    F for people who almost saw both Malfurion and Tyrande to exit at the same time?

    F for people who thought they wouldn't bring back Ysera one patch after she said she was bound to the Shadowlands. As if that meant something.
    Except the Tyrande part though, I don't want her going anywhere.
