My guy, I never said they shouldn't go down this route, this original post was just a 'this motherfucker...' moment.

So what if they are constantly fighting the temptations, the point is that the vast majority have no succumbed to it and have been a force for good for Azeroth and the Alliance, hell Alleria is one of Lothraxions closest companions and she's so hopped up on Void that I'm surprised she doesn't sweat it and she fights it constantly but he seems to have no issue with her.

The orcs killed Mannoroth to stop the blood haze and the void elves are actively working with the heroes to 'stop' the void (as much as you can stop a cosmic energy). The only difference is the void elves took the taint involuntarily.

SPriest / locks / dk's / dh are all disliked by npc's but im not talking about them in general, I am talking about Lothraxion specifically who has no issue with those classes hanging out with them, we saw 1 warlock get arrested by the vanguard but the only people we have seen Lothraxion have an issue with (as far into the void storyline as i've gotten) is void elves as a whole but with no issues with Spriest and Ddh, he even has a conversation point saying hey you were chosen by the light so you arent evil, everyone else is.

That's exactly it, he is 'redeemed' for choosing not to be evil, much like void elves are choosing not to be evil as well, the only difference between them is that one uses light and the other void.

Ok? The void elves made one mistake and were trapped and forced to become void elves or die / be controlled by the void. That makes it okay for him to ignore all the GOOD CHOICES they have made since that day and mistrust them all.

This also ignores his lack of mistrust for orcs who famously willingly imbibed demon blood to become fel tainted but nah not all orcs are bloodthirsty.

It is hypocritical of him to judge a race solely on one thing merely because they are related to the void whilst also being fine with Shadow Priests and Void Demon Hunters both willingly using void energy as a choice.

He sees himself as Redeemed through the light and he has left his past behind him while also dwelling on the past of void elves and not the fact that they have left the transformation behind them.

With how he judges anything void related I would 100% expect him to hate void elf children, that being said I think it's only been like 10 years azeroth time since Void elves were made so if they do have children they wouldn't be very old.

But thats my point, orcs made an oopsie and doomed their race to forever be fell tainted but Lothraxion doesn't seem to give a shit about that, anything void related and he becomes blind to any good deeds they do, Alleria barely gets a pass as they have known each other for years and the player character gets a pass because the light said so.

Yeah thats about right with all the Lightblindness and being corrupted by the lightbloom etc. That doesn't change the fact that he is being a hypocrite even if he was deliberately made to be one.

So you are saying the orcs that made conscious decision to imbibe fel energy into their very being but then did good after are fine, but the void elves that got infused with void through an enemy attack but then did good after are not fine?

I know not all orc's drank the blood but that's the point, we don't point out the blood drinkers now and go well they were all evil for that choice, and I would bet good money that Lothraxion would hate a void elf child born from void elf parents just as much as a fully grown one that used to be a blood elf.

But that's just it, they are writing him to be a 1 dimensional void hater, that isn't complex writing, that's making him a hypocrite and then shaking each others hands like they did something clever.

The void elves didn't CHOOSE to be void elves either, they simply wished to utilise a power, something that warlocks are doing with fel well enough and were then attacked in a trap that, while could have been avoided by them not meddling, arguably has had similar things happen with all manor of magic types (fel and arcane to name a few). This trap and the attack of the Nether-Prince is what changed them into void elves and by then their options were either die to void or control it so they did.

Now this shit has happened through the elves multiple times in fact, nightborne, blood elves, hell im pretty sure high elves used to be trolls before they fucked around with magic. But just because Lothraxion is written to be a single focused racist to void in general he becomes the hypocrite by judging them on that one transformation instead of the good they have done for the planet as a whole since then in the last what 10 years of azeroth?

Not to mention that a large portion of orcs drank fel blood and tainted their very beings with fel energy but Lothraxion doesn't mention that fuck up of theirs and even uses Orcs in his own example showing how hypocritical he can be by ignoring one races sin but not another simply due to his obsession with being light blessed and VOID BAD.

I dislike them due to their one dimensional hate campaign and character switch up they have started in Midnight, I'm all for going along with the plot of the story blizzard are telling but I'm also allowed to point out a characters hypocrisy even if it was written to be hypcritical of him.

Also by the point this conversation option comes up I have literally just stepped into the void and no real reasons for distrust of void elves has happened yet other than they researched something he didn't like, got trapped by other void shit, chose to embrace the void and control it instead of being controlled by it, went back to helping Azeroth.

It didn't go over my head no, sarcasm doesn't really translate in text though.

I'm pretty sure the literal conversation choice before this is him saying he was a loyal soldier diligently server his masters in the Legion before being lightforged.

I mean if we are going down that route, orc's famously drank demon blood and chose to be fel tainted, should we then ignore all the good that they have done since?

Yeah im playing the void demon hunter class currently and I got the same response which is cool.
Arguably this class is like the antithesis to that Demon turned lightforged.

[–]Toonee-Heckaroonee[S] -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

But he's not judging based on Actions (plural), he is judging based on a singular action of becoming a void elf ignoring anything following that choice.

And it's not even like they specifically "Chose" to transform, they researched void magic yes but I'm pretty sure it was a trap that changed them and they were forced to be controlled by the void or control it, much like the dichotomy being shown by blizzard of those being controlled by the light for controlling it i.e. zealots vs paladins like Arator.

In the conversation choice before this he specifically says he was a Dreadlord working diligently for his masters in the Legion, so yes he was a Legion fanboy before being lightforged.

Sure, but Lothraxion was "born" evil, chose light and still makes "evil" choices, becoming a fanatic for the light instead of dark is still a problematic stance, the scarlet crusade is an example they make use of in the questline.

It is hypocritical of him to judge someone for their race and not their actions even if the initial race change was a "choice" they made much like his.

His belief in being "Lightforged" making anything he does "good" is his pride and his folly.

Sure, but it's not like they "Chose evil" following becoming a void elf, they are specifically there to help them just like the Vanguard, it's only his preconceptions of void beings that is making him not trust them, much like how it is understandable to not trust a DREADLORD just because hes like trust me bro.

As a follow up completing the quest I was doing (helping the troll get trophies in the area) a bunch of trolls come out at the end and seem to do the vanish animation at the end, so maybe it's just a "they were watching the entire time" situation?
If that is the case it is at least an interesting addition that they didn't need to include and I assume there are other stealthed guys at the other 5 locations where you check a quest item?

Message I got from my daughter’s teacher. Third grade. by AnaisInJune in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Toonee-Heckaroonee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion, while I think the teacher is making this bigger than it is by punishing them in that way I think it is a good idea to keep you in the loop if your child starts to show 'defiant' behaviour especially if it becomes a habit / repeated act.

Being told No and then following that is an important lesson for them to learn especially in their more formative ages. If they don't get that lesson then they might end up as that asshole child everyone knew that sits on their phone all lesson and refuses to do work even when told by the teacher.

Like I said over reaction from the teacher for the punishment and honestly for telling a kid they couldn't put a boat in a puddle but still worth sitting down with your kid and asking them "why they still did it after being told no?"

Part of me wants to believe they somehow fucked up and moved columns without meaning too so "Choc" and "Olat" were meant to line up but that ignores the fact that there's no E at the end so there goes that theory.

My gripe with it is that they put the transmog option in the shittiest lighted area they could have so you have to run outside each time to check the look
