you have to work hard to get redemption after thousands of deaths of completely innocent elves
cant wait to kill her. (if tyrande aint faster)
Sylvanas is beyond redemption, I don't think she is following the jailor blindly but she is pure hatred.
What Sylv has been about all these years is believing in no one but herself. So blindingly believing in an obvious af bad guy just doesn't feel credible. Upon learning of the Jailer and his relationship to Sylv I thought it clear that Sylv is cooking her own machinations and is just using him. That she's actually just a useful idiot in all this is so lame. And of course, the perfect young golden boi is the one to impart some wisdom in her head about it...At this point I just want them to get this $%^& over with so they can have a fresh shot at writing an actually good story.
"The Light has struck a bargain with the enemy of all."The whispers suggest Anduin will choose his fate willingly...There will be no redemption. Sylvanas will make the ultimate sacrifice.
Why am I not surprised they pull the redemption card on her? Oh right, because she keeps the fanboys coming. Just hope that in the end, non of the characters give a damn about it because she went WAY too far and she gets what she deserves. I mean it would be kinda interesting to see the arc evolving just for sylvannas to realize, that there is no way back anymore. We'll see what they come up with...
who cares about sylvanas, she needs to take a long walk off a short pier
That's overanalyzing the cinematics, which is fiction.The writers probably haven't even finished the story yet, and most of the future cinematics are also not finished. Everything is subject to change.The writers can totally read people's comments before deciding on how to proceed with the story.In other words, this article serves more to help writers avoid plot gaps than to help us understand the story. This is like those stock experts on TV. It makes influential speculations that become self-fulfilling prophecies.I never liked analyzing fiction. I intentionally skipped that class in college, opting for the non-fiction class. People always overanalyze each word, and force upon the authors what they did not really mean.On a separate point, the fact that we are now traversing the afterlife, it appears to me that the whole fear for death is based simply on discrimination. Death is not the end in WoW as it is in real life. The undead is a race that is discriminated by the living in WoW only because they look ugly, as opposed to those in real life because they are supernatural beings.In fact, the entire Warcraft story is based on racism. We are in the 2020s, and all races should be equal.
Sylvanas has plot armor. She never going to die.She will teleport at 5% hp, and later we will forgive her for everything when she will help to kill Jailor.
There's another side to genocide? In my mind she's a evil character, I think in the minds of most players she is too. We had sympathy for her when she was protecting her forsaken in their homelands, but since then she's gone bat %^&* crazy.It feels Blizzard are scared to give her that villain title in fear of upsetting her fans.
Sylvannas is just a rehashed villain from many science fictions or fantasies in the past.The human race is so corrupted, therefore the villain plots to destroy all life on Earth, and restart life anew. A hero (or group of heroes) fought and defeated the villain, to prove that the human race is intrinsically good, and should not be wiped out. But the villain insisted that he only meant well, even as he was dying.I guess that Sylvannas is trying to blur the line between life and death, or even make life the same as death, such that her race will no longer be discriminated against, and technically every living being becomes immortal. Remember the Elves lost their immortalities, she could be working to restore it. However, for whatever reasons, she needs lots of souls to accomplish that. She could also be lied to by the Jailor to believe that she needs a lot of souls, which caused her to commit all the murders.I believe Sylvannas is working towards a morally-good goal, but it can only be achieved through immoral actions.This kind of dilemma between committing crimes now and future benefits have always been a common trope in fictions.
I don't even care tbh. Several other characters have done similar evil stuff for it to get a hasty resolution in a single patch or not even mentioned in the game. Maiev, Tyranda and Jaina's genocide first ones to pop into my mind. What annoys me the most in the story, is when we need to help these people who have commited mass genocide to fight against "evil" Sylvanas like they never did the same thing themselves.
No, this is common thing in world today. Everyone who thinks otherwise than mainstream is a nut.
It would be hilarious if they used Garrosh soul to create a crown for new Lich King (just like Nher'zul for Arthas).
