why did the jailer sent sylvanas to break the helmet if he had direct control over the helmet and thus over the person wearing it?

>>717739032
why did bolvar demanded another four horsemen to be made?
I thought the four horsemen concept was a scourge thing?

>>717739179
he wanted strong champions "for what is to come" made from mighty dead people. It really isnt that deep

>>717739179
the scourge under Bolvar is still the scourge. he's just keeping them in check, they haven't ceased to be the scourge. it was also implied he was getting up to some shady shit of his own at some point, but I think they dropped that. maybe it will be picked up again when the Last Titan takes us back to Northrend.

Did you miss the part where this girlboss character was working with the big bad guy who literally created the lich king? And he gave her magical powers of a type that other characters had never seen before?

Bolvar is strong, but he's also a budget lich king without frostmourne, and one of the greatest strenghts of the lich king is the massive unending army of deathknights he can raise, and Bolvar didn't use a single one of them in the fight. He lost because he's weak and retarded.

The problem is that none of this was built up in an interesting or satisfying way. Anytime Sylvanas comes on screen you know you're just watching someone waifutard's nonsensical fanfiction.

>the third shitvanus wank expansion in a row

this character has probably gotten more screentime than chris metzen's self insert at this point

Everybody itt is wrong
>YOU ARE NOT PREPARED

>>717749783
it was built up over multiple expansions though

Why did Sylvanas shatter the sky anyway? All souls were already going to the maw, and it's not like there was an invasion force ready on the other side like the dark portal. Was it just to abduct Anduin? Why would you really need to open the rift when it being closed has never really stopped the jailer's previous shenanigans and somehow controlling everything from the maw anyway. Why would destroying the helm of domination even result in opening the Shadowlands when it was just a tool for control of the scourge?

The answer is probably just rule of cool, but that doesn't work at all when what you're making is so lame and gay.

Shadowlands Cinematic Trailer tried to look cool, and from a surface level perspective it is a little bit. I mean it's all a cool fight scene, what's wrong with that?

I'll tell you what's wrong with it, it's got gay ass Sylvanas easily beating the fucking Lich King 1 on 1. What? With magic death powers she got from hell. What?

The trifecta of hype cinematics that were actually pretty good are Warlords, Legion, and BFA. Whether the expansions were good or not doesn't matter, the trailers were hype and cool. And most importantly, they felt like Warcraft.

It made zero sense that sylvanas could just walk up to the lich kings throne, fight him, win, then with her bare hands rip the crown apart. Anyone who got hyped by this are the kinda braindead drones that think drones making pictures in the shy is hype, it shows how low IQ you are

In the post-legion windrunner comic, the void tells Alleria that Sylvanas serves another master that is the true threat
In BFA after Sylvanas bodies Saurfang some mages discuss how unusual the magic she used was

>>717751887
Sylvanas working with >someone< in the shadowlands was clear way before the jailer was revealed, they never specified who because that was part of the reveal

Terrible expansion but it's kind of hilarious how much higher quality the environments were in Shadowlands compared to those being newly released in TWW. Tazavesh takes a massive steaming dump on any of the delves or new dungeons in graphical quality and it's more than 5 years old now. Also funny how TWW keeps reusing content from previous expansions to stop people from quitting. First visions from BFA, now Tazavesh from SL. Talk about a desperate game on life support

The retail team is a disgrace and the classic team even more so, getting dunked on by pservers

Pretty sure the most hype was Jaina begging her father for forgiveness and declaring total orc death.

>>717751629
This was the most annoying part does so many horrible shit but its okay guys she isn't bad it was the Jailor like the guys whole purpose was to excuse all of Sylvanis's shit while Garrosh least gets punished and gets the last laugh by disenchanting out of warcraft.

>>717752067

>>717752209
He doesn't really have anything to do until The Last Titan when everyone suddenly remembers the scourge have been running loose for a decade because there is no helm of domination or lich king. Then they'll wheel Bolvar out to lead the invasion of Northrend to help the player take it back from the Jailer or something retarded like that. Then he'll disappear for like 6 years again, as is tradition for all major characters.

>>717753312

>>717749783
The buildup was there and it started when Vol'jin named Sylvanas warchief. She went downhill from there and her decisions became more and more morally questionable, especially in BFA where she started killing even her own people trying to win the war. Then in the fight with Saurfang she used magic nobody, not even Jaina, could recognize.

If people cared even a little bit about the story and cinematics, they could've seen something was coming. Instead they all bandwagon on the hate train because "girlboss killed the lich king hurr durr bad writing". Sylvanas showed she was turning evil and has strange powers, Bolvar hasn't done a single fucking thing since he put on the helmet and somehow everyone expected him to be the winner.

>>717754536
>Sylvanas showed she was turning evil
yeah we've only been poisoning people and animals in hillsbrad since vanilla and then the wrathgate happened and forsaken kept using the plague and then gilneas happened and absolutely nobody could have seen this coming

>>717741149
>most respected writing in the WoW universe
"There must always be a Lich King" was one of the dumbest pieces of WoW writing that completely shat on WC3 lore. The only people who liked Lich King Bolvar were wrathbabies.

WoD and Shadow lands were an absolute mistake from a lore perspective.

>Oh look there's someone EVEN WORET THAN SARGERAS WE NEVER KNEW ABOUT

>Also the afterlife is an actual material place and here are its rules in clear detail also life there is pretty much the same as it was in life

>>717754536
I think the last part is the big problem. Bolvar didnt do SHIT, got hyped up in Legion, and then jobbed immediately after getting out of the freezer to a bitch that should technically be beneath him if not for tge jlore asspull she had, not having any plot relevancy whatsoever.
If anything he should have had at least a little bit of proper buildup, like a ruse prepatch where he is amassing a scourge army to go to Icecrown for some greater deal hes too autistic to explain to everyone, and is actually a threat to everyone as a result and wipes the floor with both factions, and then Sylvanas comes and cue the trailer.
It would still be lame, but at least some of that build up would have been used, instead of this massive wet fart.

>>717755337
Dragonflight and TWW were so mediocre nobody even remembers to criticize them because it's like bullying a toddler

I chose the not-emerald dream because of the bonuses to my DK, but I was on a RP server. The fact I had to stay there literally drove me insane.

I wanted to crawl up that giant antlered woman and throttle her asking WHY SHE PUT THE THING THAT COULD DESTROY HER IN THE GIANT STUPID TREE.
Then when sylvanas was fighting Tyrande... Why couldn't I step in? Why couldn't my DK, whom I've had since Wrath, with years of experience, not run in, jump on her back, and break her neck?
No, he just stood there like a lemon!

It must have been straight up spite from the writers, mad that people liked Arthas and the LK more than their special queen. Even more ironic is that Sylvanas was a better character before she became the teacher's pet, which just further demonstrates how incompetent the writers were

>>717736284
The only real complaint was people thought there's no way Sylvanas should be able to no-diff Bolvar, but her shattering the helmet and opening that portal above Icecrown absolutely got people hyped for what could potentially be coming

>>717749359
There's absolutely no way Blizzard are ever touching anything to do with the Jailer or Shadowlands again, the expansion almost killed WoW, it even got Asmon to stop streaming it and reorient his channel towards political grifting

>>717756092
Of course it's spite. And let's be quite honest, Sylvanas should have died in the fight against Arthas because her entire character was built entirely around him, and her hatred for him and the Scourge was one of the only redeeming qualities she (and the Forsaken as faction) had to begin with.
Which in turn of course leads us back to the fact that the Forsaken should never have been playable to begin with.

>>717756282

>>717756131
>but her shattering the helmet and opening that portal above Icecrown absolutely got people hyped for what could potentially be coming
Really? Because all it managed to do was destroy the entire Lich King plotline and the character itself. Absolutely no one wanted to see the Helm Of Domination destroyed and the LK lying defeated on the ground without having really done anything in over a decade

And for what, the fucking Jailer? Access to the shadowlands, which the writers could literally have done in a hundred other ways that didn't sacrifice a deeply entrenched character, which Legion had foreshadowed as starting to make moves?

I don't know a single person that wanted to see the Lich King humiliated for the sake of a fucking portal opening over Icecrown

>>717756362
delusional. we've already gone back to SL to fetch ysera for dragonflight and there's shadowlands mobs in the latest patch. no negativity in the dojo, the devs love their nu-writing and will force it on you until you like it.

>>717756362
you think blizzard gives a shit? their goal is political activism now. who cares if it hurts the game? retail and classic have enough addicts permasubbed to keep the game running on smoke for generations.

>>717756525
They already announced we're going back to Northrend for The Last Titan, that would necessitate a complete overhaul of the entire continent. Just like they're about to overhaul Quel Thalas for Midnight. The good part about that is that Silvermoon can finally be a proper city hub rather than just an archaic place players can't fly in

>>717756726
Why the fuck would you kill off the Lich King and THEN give Northrend another expansion? Or will this be their way of retconning Shadowlands?

>>717756421
>her entire character was built entirely around him, and her hatred for him and the Scourge was one of the only redeeming qualities she (and the Forsaken as faction) had to begin with.
Except it isn't, and only Wrathbabs think that. The Forsaken are founded by beating the dreadlords, not the Lich King. Then Sylvanas allies with one because he'd be useful.
Making Sylvanas' obsession with revenge monomaniacal completely misunderstood her.

Yeah, no joke. I wish wow was like ff, cause they already have to possibility to course correct.
Blizz only can double down on the californian social politics cause they're too deep into larry fink's pockets.
Truly a shame. Whenever I used to hear "warcraft", heavy metal music started to play in my head.

>>717756814
They probably didn't have the Worldsoul saga planned when they were writing Shadowlands. It seems like Metzen's idea when they brought him back for damage control.

Weak and homosexual. The maggots in her pussy are merely extra protein when going down on her.

>>717745761
>Bolvar is strong, but he's also a budget lich king without frostmourne,
When did people decide that Frostmourne was this deity tier weapon on which the LK's power rests? In TFT, Arthas starts losing levels because Ner'zhul is being weakened, and Frostmourne isn't enough to compensate for it. In other words, the majorty of his power must've come from the Lich King directly. Besides, isn't Frostmounre "just" a shard from his prison?

I distinctly enjoyed WoW and the story up until WOTLK

>>717761156
>vanilla
no story
>tbc
illidan survived somehow and for some reason the blood elves are having a civil war and joined the horde because uuuh i guess an alliance general was mean to them
>wotlk
I'LL GET YOU NEXT TIME GADGET
*leaves*

>>717761357
Classic WoW had a lot of different stories such as the black dragons infiltrating the human nobles in SW and also recruiting members of the horde that didnt join the new horde with thrall. Or the regional stories such as the winterfall corrutpion or duskwood. There are tons of them. Outland also had a ton of stories that were regional but the plot with Illidan is that he and Kael and Vash fled to outland after they failed to kill the lich king and are preparing for a burning legion invasion. Illidan defeated magtheridon so a lot of demons chose to side with him. The blood elves have a civil war because some of them stayed in Quel Thalas and chose to join Sylvanas and the horde after they helped them defeat the scourge in the ghostlands. Wotlk was nonsense

It's one of the most retarded trailers ever, that's for certain.

>>717761357
Vanilla had a lot going on, what are you talking about?

>>717736257 (OP)
>>most hype trailer ever
>>shittiest expansion of all time
wasnt that WoD though?
it had THE MOST HYPE trailer, going back to the most established part of the lore and doing alternate history with it

>>717761773
not really
dragonflight's was way worse. i had to double check i was really watching a wow video, it was that unrecognizable

>>717761854
why did they abandon WoD?

>>717761703
Wotlk had good stories like all the quests leading up to Wrathgate and the internal coup within the forsaken, it wasn't all nonsense

>>717761893
orc fatigue

Im going to blow a fuse if the final cinematic for this expansion is litterly the harbinger does a gravity attack because muh darkness which causes blond elf to fall to the ground while emo elf goes to grab the heart of darkness, then OPENS A PORTAL and just leaves, saying something now you get to see your world consumed. I dont even love the game, i just hate to see my favorite childhood game go down in flames with lazy ass marvel tier writing. AI

they have done this every single expansion since legion, i think the worst one was the jailor but im 100% they are going to say see you later alligator, open a portal then fades to black.

>>717761893
because retards decided that they wanted to change direction mid development

>>717761862
>not really
Yes, really. If you can't watch it and realize how fucking retarded most of it is, then there is nothing that can be said to convince you.
>but X was worse
I haven't seen it, but something being worse doesn't mean another thing isn't shit or one of the biggest piles of shit.

>>717761893
They released garrisons were a huge mistake and made the game absurdly antisocial

>>717761862
>>717762052
i think you're both mixing different things
SL trailer was recognizable as WoW, but the cinematic was so fucking utter shit because they pissed on LK
DF cinematic didn't even look like wow, it wasn't necessarily bad, but had literally nothing recognizable in it

>>717762154
people like to shit on garrisons as the worst part of WoD, but its not, def made the game more anti-social
but problem with wod was just content in general, because they had to scrap most of it because they headed into a different direction

>>717762282
I enjoyed garrisons a lot, they just dont work in an MMO because everyone ends up sitting in an instance by themselves and the outdoor areas all look dead. Now they're abandoning that philosophy by introducing housing, so I guess the brakes are off on the wow decline train

>>717762197
this
they're both terrible, they're just different flavors of terrible

>>717762378
DF trailer looked like everyone with any talent had left Blizzard and the interns were left to make the trailer. Which it turns out is pretty close to what happened

>>717762450
>DE&I also means diversity of thought,
"talent"

>fully built a garrison to be my own personal major city with AH, BMAH, portals, bank, void storage, and my own pets walking around.
I get it wasn't the player housing people wanted and it made the game a bit more anti-social, but I enjoyed it

>>717736257 (OP)
Finally. Fucking FINALLY it was the forsakens turn to run the horde! They were doing everything right, viral bombing civilians and burning down city's. Everybody cried so hard about it, I don't get it. That's what the horde should have been doing instead of being gay noble savages.

>>717736284
The initial fight was cool but Sly being as overpowered as she was made it gay towards the end when Bolvar got chained up

is there any point to WoW other than raid-logging?

HYPE HYPE HYPE
>bolvar gets wrecked by danuser's waifu
hype flatlined
>sylvanas does her girlboss scream and rips apart the helm of domination, symbolical of women destroying the last vestiges of old cool warcraft
hype in the negatives

>>717762745
Delves are somewhat alright. Frankly, though it's a big step down from the glory days and clearly made by inexperienced junior devs, not anyone competent

I still play warcraft 3

>>717760624
Frostmourne was definitely a big deal. Not sure why you'd pretend to say otherwise. Destroying it is what sealed arthas's fate.

>>717762824
>used the same Mechano-hog mount since Wrath, and the Azure drake as well
>friends were still feverously chasing new mounts each week despite the fact that they will never use them for more than 5 minutes, if at all.
I don't get it.

Is having a unique mount even cool anymore? When 99% of people were stuck using the stock race mounts, having a variation was a bit unique, but now there are hundreds of unique mounts and recolors that no one is really unique.

>>717736257 (OP)
>most hype trailer ever
It's the wrath trailer and it's not close

>>717760624
because Frostmourne is iconic, and is basically the symbol for Arthas' downfall and the rise of the LK. WoW also hypes it up A LOT, so people just sort of associated it with his power.

>>717762824
>have the protodrakes from naxx which were removed from the game and the challenge mode armors
>zero interest in getting any other collectibles because there is zero prestige from them, even current content mythic mounts and sets will end up getting soloed by catmoms who click their abilities sooner or later
suffering from success

>>717763956
no. collectathon autists are the core audience now. that's why they added the dumb FOMO trader shop

>>717763792
>Frostmourne was definitely a big deal.
Sure, but WC3 makes it clear that the Lich King is the power behind it all. And like I said, Frostmourne worked as a crutch when Arthas was losing his powers in WC3
>Destroying it is what sealed arthas's fate.
Yeah, but that's because all the souls released from it ganged up on him, not because he became harmless by losing the sword itself. DK Arthas with Frostmourne is definitely weaker than LK Arthas without it

>>717763956
>play a Gnome rogue dickhead
>make a flying machine from BC
>good, compact, thematic mount set for life
>build the motorcycle and sky golem as comfy side projects, ignore every other mount forever if they're not mechanical
>able to easily resist the sway until Mechagon where there's a straight up fucking Duel Wheel looking giant ass tire
>maxed out and got the over achievement for the zone, got my giant ass cog, and quit months into SL
Outside of having modern shit released catered to a theme you might pick, ignoring mounts is so fucking easy if you have half a brain
You can only show them off one at a time, as opposed to me clicking a dozen different toy buttons that can at least do a more wide variety of dumb shit

>>717762960
pretty much exactly what I felt. obviously I would have liked if Bolvar crushed her skull in but if they absolutely HAD to let a chick win then at least put the helmet on her and give us another undead expansion or something

>all world religions/belief systems are pretty much wrong "The Expansion"
>ermmmm actually the afterlife is a very well organized series of world inhabited by creatures that aren't dead or alive but love their jobs so much and the afterlife is actually sick dude! We have war world, vampire bdsm world, sleep in the woods world, lobotomy blue people world, oh yeah and literal hell I guess too!

>>717762960
>Sylv does the same backwards leap Illidan does before Arthas cuts him down the middle
>expect Bolvar to fuck her up with the same move
>doesn't happen
It would have made it much better.

>>717749359
>Grizzly Hills have been removed

>>717749359
where's the other half of the continent? i know nu-blizz is cutting costs because all their games are dying but this is just retarded

>>717761703
TBC was nonsense too.

>>717765736
They are not allowed to release quality content anymore. Especially now that they do "faster" expansions

>>717765901
It certainly was. Hey guys, Illidan is crazy now... and Kael'thas is evil now...

>>717766237
Kael'thas getting into fel as a magic source was on point I thought, he must have looked at Illidan and thought it'd be fine.

>>717766237
Illidan shouldn't even have been alive, he died at the end of TFT 1v1 against Arthas.
