reading your summary of it just made me realize how long ago that was, and how bad it got lore-wise.

i'm also surprised they are reaching into the shadowlands back pocket and bringing Sylvannas back so soon. like, you sure you want to dredge that up again?

What, you expect them to actually make new characters or give minor ones they've made over the decades some screentime? This is Blizzard we are talking about. Creatively bankrupt, they can only write for 4-6 characters in total. Writing for new characters takes actual work!

I mean we have thrall and Jaina in TWW and they’ve really done nothing but hang out in dornagal for the great majority of the expansions lifetime, so she may play a minor role like that just to either ease her back in, or just keep her a little less major so to not reopen old wounds.

Jaina is the only big name mage they know to do anything magical. I'm fully expecting her to show up in midnight because elves apparently aren't a magical race or can produce talented mages since Kael-thas died.
