Skoll Shorties

I disagree with that; what I liked about the WoD cinematics was the music and how it tied up the zones. It was a good way to feel finished with each area. Compared to the Thrall and Jaina cinematic where...”We’re different” except nothing has changed between the factions.

The whole point of the Cinematic wasn't that the Alliance and Horde was different. It was Thrall and Jaina who were different. They're not the same people from the Warcraft 3 Days. That's why change is viable.

The issue with THIS situation is that there’s now a very jarring disparity between these two heroes of the Horde and Alliance being able to put aside their differences, and what the factions are still like after two awful civil wars.

Thrall and Jaina have putting aside their differences and working together since Warcraft 3. How is that an issue? Plus you later have it shown it's not just Jaina and Thrall who want this but other heroes of the factions too in WoW's "The Negotiations".

What I’m mostly getting at is how Blizzard tends to wave the potential of ending the faction war while claiming they will never end it. The player plays both the yes-man soldier and the “Hero is Azeroth”. Meanwhile the overall narrative is the Horde and Alliance big names 1/

putting aside differences. I’m someone who WANTS that, but I’m still forced to play the yes man. Watching a cinematic showing character growth while my character isn’t allowed to grow feels bad. That’s the only reason I dislike it.

The Faction War will continue in Warcraft. It's unfortunately one of it's staples as apart of the game. But the reason for every war will not be the same either. Just as there are characters who want peace. There are characters who want war. I liked the Crossroads one--

Because it showed Jaina and Thrall back together again for the first time in ages. Venting to one another about each other's problems and venting that nothing will change. But things can change - because they are proof that people can change.
