I can't wait for the expansion where Orcs and Humans spar over UBI. Or when the Burning Orange Man Legion tries to revoke Single Payer healthcare. Or how about the expansion where clapping emotes are disabled due to the triggering aspects?
Except, even when they went full in "Garrosh is bad, worse than Hitler" they still couldn't make him the bad guy because of their incompetent writing.
He was right to be racist, because literally every ally openly conspired against him and regularly spoke of insubordination. He was right to purge Org, they were literal demons under their feet. And worse, he was possessed by a Sha for the majority of his "warcrimes" which we determined was a justifiable excuse when Taran Zhu was under the same influences.
Its even more amusing that they had him call out Thrall completely correctly in WoD. They actually thought it made Garrosh look childish and wrong, instead of Thrall for thrusting too much power on a man unready.
So its likely they would accidentally end up making "Orange Man Good" if they tried, because they did just as poor a job with Sylvanas.
It amuses me greatly that when they are trying to write a "100% black evil" character, they fuck it up and accidentally make them look extremely justified.
But when they want that "cool grey anti-hero" like Sylvanas, they fuck it up so badly that they have to bend over backwards to make her not responsible for her actions and look good again. And it still only works because of how obsessively people want to fuck her, one of which is the head writer who self inserted as Nathanos for a whole expac and broke the cringe meter.
I stopped with Cata. Do I want to know what feminism did to Sylvanas? I always like her because she was unabashedly evil, but she was on the good side, sorta... client states are complicated. She was MBS.
Worth pointing out that mentioning that waifu issue would get you banned on the wow sub. I may have an old post there [which I know was deleted] with a screenshot of a tweet of them LARPing on twitter about Sylvanas that I'll try and look out later.
Raid the fuck out of them to trigger globo homo pomo pedos.
Remember what they want.
Like communists and homosexuals in the 1950s, boylovers are so stigmatized that it is difficult to find defenders for their civil liberties, let alone for their erotic orientation.
-Gayle Rubin, Thinking Sex
It is not necessary to figure parent-child incest as a unilateral impingement on the child by the parent, since whatever impingement takes place will also be registered within the sphere of fantasy. In fact, to understand the violation that incest can be and also to distinguish between those occasions of incest that are violation and those that are not it is unnecessary to figure the body of the child exclusively as a surface imposed upon from the outside... The reification of the child’s body as passive surface would thus constitute, at a theoretical level, a further deprivation of the child: the deprivation of psychic life.
-Judith Butler, Undoing Gender
But, after all, listening to a child, hearing him speak, hearing him explain what his relations actually were with someone, adult or not, provided one listens with enough sympathy, must allow one to establish more or less what degree of violence if any was used or what degree of consent was given. And to assume that a child is incapable of explaining what happened and was incapable of giving his consent are two abuses that are intolerable, quite unacceptable.
-Michel Foucault, The Danger of Child Sexuality
tl;dr Not fucking children is somehow child abuse.
Imagine being transgender in a world where there's magic that can change someone's race. Like wtf faggot just learn magic yourself or pay someone else to cast it on you.
After BFA's writing, its clear they have literally no amount of competence between the entire staff. So this is desperate pandering to hopefully pull that FF14 Trannie audience.
Yea, I've sworn off the company entirely. I did take a look at some of the class changes for Shadowlands though, and it was pretty interesting to see so many 'pruned' abilities being restored (Paladins get their auras back!).
You just know the story is still going to be shit tier "the light was evil all along!" bullshit though. And you know the main gameplay will still be a mobile tier reward loop.
Maybe we can get some new games with better stories/systems again once China finally admits they got suckered into enslaving their population for the world's elite, and they aren't actually going to spearhead a global revolution, so they stop trying to fuck with everything.

It's every bit as cringe as you think it will be.

Ah good. Just in case them caving and reverting class changes tempted you to try WoW again, here's a great reminder that they still don't have a clue.

I haven't bought a game from blizzard since they required logins to play single player Starcraft 2. That was my line in the sand.
The d3 fiasco just cemented it.
The jokes just write themselves....
Wonder if they be missing or changed in the China version
Almost certainly will be. WoW is already heavily censored in China.
Yes, because homosexuals and transgenders are so well accepted in our medieval fantasy world. WTF?
Man, you know it's bad where I was looking for some kind of satire tag/source for a moment.
Do they use hormone magic or what? Warcraft for me ended at Warcraft 3.
