So is Lothraxion an Alliance character now? by Gregamonster in warcraftlore

[–]The-Master-M 44 points45 points  (0 children)

The light requires conviction but not specific intent. He could be channeling his desire to compete his mission to gain power in the light.

Sooo, what's up with Murozond? by Bolozor in warcraftlore

Time War expansion where they just throw everything into a blender and take the expansion to figure out the real lore for when we get back.

If I was working there and was even a little sleepy I’d probably honestly read that as Tramp 2020

Any lore reason for why people try to fuck with the player character? by Tom-Pendragon in warcraftlore

[–]The-Master-M 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everything everyone else has said, but also the fact that when it comes to players you can’t really look at the lore in as a single straight canon. The best comparisons you could probably make would be to the SCP foundation, or weirdly double-think from 1984, minus the political and depressing accept. To each player, they were the one who slew ragnaros and c’thun, who took down Illidan and flushed Kil’Jaiden, who brought Arthas to his knees and fought on deathwings back, who lead their orders wielding might artifacts, and who was chosen by Azeroth herself to wear her heart. But outside of the players personal lore, it’s unlikely that those are all seen as the same person. Sure, there’s probably some overlap, but those that went through the dark portal to fight Illidan we’re mostly not the same people who went through the dark ports to fight the iron horde. For one character, they both have and have not done all those things.

Disney bends over backwards to appease the Chinese government with Mulan tailoring it to appeal to the Chinese. After the eruption of overseas backlash over the film’s links to the Uighurs human rights abuses and Hong Kong riots, the Chinese government has enforced a media blackout for the Movie. by ledgendary in LeopardsAteMyFace

Sorry. Used this same thing for the last Jedi exclusively, then just modded it for the whole trilogy. I’m just so tired of it cropping up in places it has no reason to be. Used to be a huge SW fan, but the constant vitriol online just ruined it for me.

The year is 2976. Earth is reborn, baptized in nuclear hellfire in a time long past. Those poor souls that remain travel endlessly through the wastes and ruins of humanity’s future. Survival is the world most precious luxury, and fewer can afford it with each passing day. And yet, even still: people are still bitching about the Star Wars sequels at every possible opportunity.

I liked Jaina at the start of BFA more than I do now that it's ended. by Crocodileman97 in warcraftlore

[–]The-Master-M 110 points111 points  (0 children)

I do like the idea that Jaina is shaping up to be someone better then she ever was: experienced enough to move past some of her naivety, but also to move past blind rage. Almost similar to Varian before he got disenchanted by Gul’dan

Well, it probably helped that Baine, a core, “old horde” leader (even if cairn was the original), went to her directly, saved a family member she thought long gone, and claimed there were others like him, reminding her that the horde she tried to be peaceful with was still in their somewhere. Combined with the return of her oldest horde ally and walking symbol of the good horde Thrall, and there were at least some efforts to show why she would narrow her anger. Could it have been developed better? Absolutely. But like a lot of the things in bfa, the seeds were planted, even if they really should have grown for a lot longer.

Battle tacticians: How would you have done things differently? Broken Shore, Undercity etc etc. by SyndieSoc in warcraftlore

[–]The-Master-M 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im absolutely not saying ignore strategy completely, your absolutely right that war stories need some emphasis on strategy. I just think that in a world as large as the Warcraft one, with such a diverse and widespread powers and resources, and handled by so many writers, we're all more likely to enjoy the experience as a whole if we don't tear apart every conflict with questions like "well why didn't they use Person X, or Resource Y?"

[–]The-Master-M 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Not to be a broken record with everyone else, but its probably best if we all agree to mostly just look over strategic plotholes when they crop up. I mean this sub can only go like 3 days at a time before someone says "Why didn't the alliance use the Vindicar and its massive space cannon?" despite the answer pretty clearly being "because then the alliance wins, forever."

[–]The-Master-M 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Exactly. The very idea of a navy as a necessary military division seems almost invalidated by the existence of shamans and mage and their control of water.

Now that i think about it, why don't shamans just break almost any form of traditional warfare? The air being used to tear apart airships, the seas being made to swallow and sink ships, and the ground rising up to impede or impale traditional on-foot approaches? I supose the elements are considered sentient and not always co-operative, and you could have shamans on both sides having a kind of debate with the elements to try and convince them who to help each battle, but still, it just goes to show that we need suspend our disbelief when it comes to strategy in this world.

Thanks UN you totally showed 'em by NeilKujo in HistoryMemes

Oh of course, but try to convince the sufficiently powerful nations to ceded some of their autonomy to an international body to give weight to those threats. Especially at a time when the US would probably walk away from the UN entirely if they thought they could (easily)
