WoW has officially joined Starcraft 2 in jumping the shark into becoming its own fan fiction
I thought Kerrigan turning into a literal god angel made of fire and destroying all evil forever and seeding every world with life forever in Starcraft was the worst way Blizzard could kill an IP but they did it again.
Oh i knew they were pushing him hard. I did'nt know you are specifically told YOU are the villain and always have been and he is the literal god king incarnation of the light that can never die and was merely pretending to be fel corrupted.
Jose Sullivan
How do you think they'll end up fucking over Overwatch's lore?
I'm betting their going to kill any moral ambiguity regarding the Omnics and reduce any character who was prejudice against them into being one-dimensional villains, or give them some redemption arc where they realise they were in the wrong or some shit.
Camden Gonzalez
Starcraft 2 = World of Warcraft you say?
Gabriel Mitchell
New old god garbage.
Wyatt Sanchez
hello, customer support? this fortune cookie has clearly gone bad, I'd like to return it.
Ian Myers
Evidence suggest Xe'ra might actually be N'Zoth in disguise and the player is being manipulated. Won't be certain until the Gul'dan fight is released.
Cameron Brown
Why do writers keep falling back on the half angel half demon is the hero bullshit. Can't they just keep someone half divine or half demon and other half human?
Dylan Hernandez
this means A'dal was a bad guy, right?
Lucas Myers
I can see it now.
Easton Green
night elves are the niggers of WoW.
Colton Nelson
The franchise went to hell when the mmo came out, so that does make sense.
Of course, it could work as an actual plot point.
Levi Hall
If elves are dindus, what the fuck does that make orcs?
Ryder Turner
also they were given pretty much everything by higher powers, take all the credit for it and turn everything they live around purple.
Nicholas Jackson
The screaming.
It won't stop.
Tyler Watson
...
Cameron Taylor
See the thing is orcs are always the niggers in fantasy games. Chris Metzen in his infinite wisdom decided to make a race that out niggers the original niggers.
Charles Sullivan
Seriously?
What does that make the Draenei, then?
Josiah Sanchez
Why not fully human and fully divine?
Luke Rivera
muslims
Anthony Carter
What?
Luke Williams
Den of Mortal Delights, the section of Black Temple that leads up to Illidan's boss area, filled with scantily clad courtesans and succubi
Jayden Hughes
With its own boss, Mother Shahraz, who was the whorehouse matron. And, seeing as she's a Shivarra, probably a whore as well.
According to that one "replace your demons with better versions" warlock talent (does it even still exist?) Shivarra are the "improved version" of a Succubus.
Christian Richardson
this
Josiah Bennett
Didn't WoW jump the shark like 9 years ago?
Gabriel Hill
for me the tipping point was when they neutered AV but it was fun for maybe 2 or 3 more years afterwards.
Jayden Murphy
No. It was longer than that.
Carter Gutierrez
...
Hunter Bennett
Do videos not show their thumbnail in catalog for anyone else? They used to but it doesn't work now for some reason
Jayden Cook
Not surprised at all.
Jose Smith
Blizzdrones still give blizzard too much fucking credit with their tinfoil on storytelling.
They're already setting it up in D3. Angels are evil too, some demons might have been good and rebelled against the prime evils etc.
Liam Collins
Well they do have extra hands
Jayden Bailey
dragons. not just mindless fire breathing demon lizards. i mean those god dragons like in might and magic or warcraft lore.
Ryan Thomas
or asian mythology, sheesh i dropped the ball
Luis Ortiz
Diablo has a great set of lore and backstory, even ignoring Diablo 3 and supplementary novels. Theres the Sin War and other such things. Angels really have been against mankind from the start; Tyrael was actually a rebel and they juat wanted to invade Earth as a stronghold closer to hell
Blake Jones
are all the angels black?
Dylan Evans
...
Nicholas Bell
I am okay with niggerangels and nigradins. However I am not okay with femdiablo and all that shit.
William Hall
What evidence? I want to believe
Nathan Cruz
They only can make planets into femtitans.
Sebastian Murphy
well it is the lord of terror, if you werent so transphobic it wouldnt have come to this
Jayden Rodriguez
So, in other words, shit?
Daniel Peterson
Hasn't WoW been fifteen flavours of fanfiction from the start?
Blake Walker
warcraft started out as a warhammer fanfiction!
Henry Roberts
Orcs were the WoW mudslimes.
Dranei were clearly chinks.
Y'all just upset femdiablo looked like a xenomorph knockoff instead of a sexy succubus.
Jose Watson
you sure got me pegged. like succubus diablo would to my anus, not that im in to that.
Jackson Bell
Wait, wait, wait… And people complained about Thrall being green Jesus when there is a literal Jesus right now?
Ryan Brooks
cut them some slack, they didnt know. they were NOT PREPARED X^D===D—
Noah Rogers
It did that ages ago
Ian Morris
Warcraft 3 already started the rot.
Fuck it, been playing games since 98. Love story driven games. Played hundreds of them. I think I'm qualified to say that
Sorry if that hurts anyone's feelings.
Grayson Reyes
Pretty sure you're not alone. Me too.
Could you just imagine the Diablo franchise exploding in popularity if they had a notMorrigan strut around and bruteforced the angels to kneel down and call her Queen?
…But then again the hypersensitive would whine as usual, and Blizzard bends over backward to accommodate the assreaming.
Parker Nelson
is there a single MMO story that doesn't end with you killing a literal god in the form of some shitty boss that isn't even the strongest boss in the respective game?
fucking FFXI did the same and that was several years before WoW did it.
oh, right, runewowscape 3 too.
Asher Gutierrez
Behold someone who knows his gaming history!
A rare thing.
Owen Rogers
no problem, they can just throw in a tumblrhair bulldyke and female character of ambiguous fatassedness and suddenly all is forgiven.
Gavin Jenkins
Yes. Not because of that mind you, D3 story is shit from start to finish. the little lore tidbits are cool though, shame they let Metzen touch the main plot
Grayson Butler
wow lore is shit Warcraft 3 lore was actually not bad, but thats where it started to rot
Ryder King
this is the exact kind of shit "WHAT A TWEEST" was made a joke for. plot twist addicts are the lowest tier of storycucks.
Alexander Wright
Most video game lore is shit. The only possible exception is TES, and there's so much of that shit that the devs have started ignoring it because they're not competent enough to actually implement it in-game.
Wyatt Gonzalez
I love when nerds go postal with a franchise lore.
