The Light and the Void: Morally Grey Gone Wrong

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 06:32 AM PST

Ever since the release of Argus and Blizzard's A Thousand Years of War audio drama, I've been seeing more and more people discuss the idea that the Light and the Void are moral equals. It's not hard to see why; Blizzard has clearly been trying to make the dichotomy between the Light and the Void less black and white. And while I'm not necessarily opposed to that, I think it's important that the Light and the Void maintain their identities.

The point of having shades of grey is the shades. Making two opposing forces the same hue doesn't inherently add any complexity to a narrative; worse, it can even detract from it. I think that making the Light and the Void equals is moral greyness at its worst. It's thoughtless ambiguity just for the sake of ambiguity, with little consideration for how it impacts the world and the story. Not only would it require large swaths of lore to be retconned – including the recent, supposedly definitive "Chronicle" series – but I don't see it doing anything positive for the narrative.

With the Light being established as mostly good, and the Void being established as mostly bad, there's a certain level of drama that comes when a character uses these forces in an unexpected way. The Scarlet Crusade, for example, were compelling villains because they were zealots using a force of good inappropriately; their crimes were made even more vile by their using something so pure to commit them. In the same vein, Shadow Priests and Ren'dorei are interesting because they're using something 'bad' for a righteous cause. The Void isn't just dangerous magic, like fel or even the arcane, but is presented as being antithetical to life, sanity, and even 'goodness' itself.

Making them both the same boring, sludge-shade of grey robs these groups – and others like them – of their impact. Xe'ra's extreme measures are a lot less shocking when you start thinking of the Light as authoritarian and intolerant as a rule. Alleria's decision to use the Void is suddenly not so drastic or grim if it's revealed to simply be a misunderstood force, no better or worse than magic already harnessed by countless other heroes.

Reducing the two primordial forces of Creation to being morally irrelevant cheapens the lore, the characters, and the narrative as a whole. Narrative and moral complexity can – and in Warcraft's case, I think it should – come from the way characters use those powers.

Seeting shore = BEST honor farm

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 07:12 AM PST

Seething shore is the new BG coming in BFA which is now available as a brawl mode and is really good for farming honor! You get 150 honor for winning + 40 honor for each azerite you mine. You need to mine 15 azerite to win the game (which usually goes pretty fast) this means that winning a game awards you with 750 honor (+ the honor you get from kills) A game of seething shore is also really quick and only takes about 10 minutes so this is a great way to get your honor level up.

I couldn't wait for the physical release of BfA to complete my wall, so I made my own in my own art style!

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 03:25 PM PST

I don't know about you but I'm so hyped for Dark Iron Dwarves, I don't know much about them but they sure look very different than all these ''good guys'' looking alliance races. Would totally fit to play a Warlock with these guys !

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 08:27 AM PST

After finishing all Mage Towers, I can safely say fuck these guys the most.

Highmountain Tauren Shaman - Moose Glyphs?

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 06:28 AM PST

I really feel like there is a missed opportunity here to add some Highmountain Tauren specific glyphs for Shamans.

Ghost Wolf - Glyph of Ghost Moose

Feral Spirits - Glyph of Feral Moose

Sounds silly but Im a Canadian and any excuse for more moose is good for me.
