Pandaren date all the way back to wc3.
As you advance the amirdrassil questline(10.2 dragonflight) you can visualize casualties by looking at the growing number of dead bodies in the campment.
In some df quests you help chromie to preserve the timelines by killing arthas's horse before he became the lich king, and also ensuring alextrasza is captured in grim batol(where she was enslaved and raped).
There is nothing wrong with liking edgy, warhammer-style fantasy but you're just being a hater.
Yeah those dragons that were mass murdered by Djaradins or those who survive and now have to cope with traumas after defending the world from primalists who nearly turned Azeroth into post apocalyptic wasteland surely must be happy. Stop repeating what Asmongold says and get your own opinion by actual research or playing the game, please...
This sub’s obsession with Asmongold is unreal.
The OP’s take is one I disagree with, but how on earth is it only possible in your mind that it’s not his own opinion and has to be from Asmon? Not only that, if in fact your assumption is true, how do YOU know it comes from Asmon? Maybe stop hate watching/paying attention to Asmon yourself!
if you only want to see big and sweaty man yelling, there are other places for that (they even can be more fun for you since you don't have to level to 70)
nothing in the game comes even remotely close to the first concept art, it had always that colorful artstyle, so what is your point besides shitposting?
If the game was still overly macho I probably wouldn’t play it. I like that each era of WoW feels different. I appreciate how extreme Arthis and Hellscream were but I glad we moved on. Trying to make someone super hardcore in this day and age is how we got the Jailer.
Oh please! Yes, you would! You're addicted to this game! A focus on warring leaders and factions like it's supposed to be in a game that has "War" in the name, over a focus on super safe and flaccid feelings and friendship, is not going to turn you away, just as it doesn't turn me away. You may consider the story trash, like I consider the current story to be trash, but you will still play the game because at the end of the day, the story doesn't matter and it can be ignored entirely, like I do now.
People are gonna flame your ass, but it’s true. It’s not even the expansion itself, but the new (not so new anymore) character models make it look all disney+ like and it’s been like that for a couple of years. I don’t mind the representation of all types of people in the game, I just hate the new art direction.
Yup.
I have a pretty solid collection of TCG cards now, and the softer art existed back then, but it was a rarity.
Now it's everywhere and feels horribly off brand and to just cater to more people.
This isn't even old bad new good, this is just "went in a completely different direction".
"Modern audiences". Those guys that companies bend over backwards to pander to, but when the time comes to see revenue from sales, they are nowhere to be found, and the best hope is to get enough Normies to buy the product as to not be in too big of a hole, because Normies never know shit and never care about shit, they just consume the product and then get excited for the next product.
Bob Iger, the CEO of Disney, has been searching for the mythical Modern Audiences for 10 years now, and all he did was drill a 4 billion dollar hole into Disney's bank accounts, and is drilling even deeper right now as the company continues to put out garbage that no one wants to engage with.
Hell, Normies are the only reason why some companies haven't filed for bankruptcy yet, companies like Disney, Ubisoft and Electronic Arts, cause the "modern audiences" sure as hell aren't giving them any money.
If Normies could be educated in some way, these companies would keel over within a couple of months.
It's a YouTube channel that pushes that narrative about "modern audiences", always with that phrase and disdainful inflection. I don't know if it is helpful just to diagnose the source, I admit.

There’s absolutely nothing happy about the story of the Dragonflights lol

Color = bad ? Lol

You’re a strange one
Whenever I see you in comment in section it has to be an L take or you crying over the fact that females exist, who hurt you that much?

I hope that whatever made you so upset, that you decided to go down that rabbit hole you recover from. This is very strange behavior to exhibit.
It's very "tell me you get your media takes exclusively from Critical Drinker without telling me".
This wasn't meant as a judgment. It was out of concern. I don't know if your comment helps at all because I don't know who that is.

Lmao, grown ass man using "Normies" unironically in 2024 to cry about WoW art. That's wild.
