Y'know call me crazy, but I really don't believe Argus the Unmaker is such a crucial plot point for every little thing about Warcraft's world.

Lowkey I wish Argus was actually a character in Legion or hell even in BfA/Shadowlands but in Legion he felt so out of the blue and I felt nothing when he's dealt with. This adds to the checkmark of reasons why Legion isn't perfect - it's good but the final boss is meh.

So...like N’zoth?

N'zoth works better as a final villain than Argus. The problem with N'zoth is he was killed off too quickly and how he died. Argus has no build-up and no weight to his death. I feel nothing when he dies. I feel something when N'zoth is dealt with.

I feel like the importance of both are undersold by Blizz, not that N’zoth isn’t important in the entirety of Warcraft’s story.

The factor is they're both done dirty in their own various ways but I think Argus is the more boring and least interesting of the final villains of an expansion. TBC = Kil'jaeden WotLK = Lich King Cata = Deathwing MoP = Garrosh WoD = Archimonde Legion = Argus BfA = N'zoth

Out of all of those Argus is the least talked about. Now I'd personally argue that N'zoth isn't even the worst final boss in WoW. Archimonde, Kil'jaeden and Argus all share the lack-of-build-up I've been talking about.
