As a huge fan of Sylvanas since I first joined Wow in Cata and leveled a Forsaken I was under no illusion that she was evil. In fact I loved that about her character since so many others were Mary Sues who can do no wrong. I believe her character had complexity and always believed deep down that the old Sylvanas existed somewhere deep down under all the anger and hatred. Blizz actually entertained that notion. Making hee warchief and having her save the Horde in their most desperate hour gave me hope. There had to be a reason the Loa chose her right? Then Blizz said she was "morally grey". So the issue here is not that Sylvanas hasn't always been evil. Of course she has. Its that Blizz led us to believe there was something more there, something deeper, some redeemable quality. Now despite being fooled and led to believe there was something more to her character, despite having blizz be predictable and have Sylvanas burn down the tree and abandon a tactically sound plan to occupy it cause she got "butthurt" by a night elf I'm still intrigued in a way. I now understand the route they are going with her. In her younger days she was like Delaryn. Young, fiery, passionate and a defender of her people. All that bravery and for what? She died. Where did hope get her? Her people decimated, sunwell destroyed and she was forced to be a banshee. She's given up on life, she hates it. In her anger and grief she seeks to destroy the very thing she lost: life. Anyone who has what she once had must die. In her mind she's freeing them from the illusion of hope and love and life cause its a lie and it will fail you like it failed her. She has become the very thing she hated. She now seeks to destroy. So I'm still Horde through and through. I'm faithful to my faction and I have to see this storyline through. So imo its still an engaging story, and I'm curious to see where it goes.
“Here, hold my beer...”- Sylvanas 2018
well, that was sadly foreseen and expected. What a waste of time.Yay Horde has a scorned/mental powerful leader , again.Every other xpac a side will lose a faction leader?the longer I play, the less vested I become in the story.
And that's how you light up a Christmas Tree.

Morally grey.
