Okay, now I don't want to argue over which faction is better, I have Horde and Alliance characters, but I have to say this is ridiculous.
The Horde gets and entire NEW CITY, the closest thing the Alliance got was a little retexturing done in SW, and some lake. Not only that, but the Orcs just rolled into Ashenvale forest, and are massacreing the Night Elves (Guess we know who canonically won WSG...), Alliance towns are all practically under siege for some reason, even Menethil harbor got submerged... why BLizzard?
In a fantastic universe with so much history and lore, are we really going to try and compare every little detail at a 1:1 ratio to make sure both factions feel like they're mirrored? It's sort of silly to even try considering we don't want the factions to feel the same in that way, always gaining and losing in the war at perfectly equivalent rates, and at the same time. But... I'll throw in my own random evidence just to give this a go.
We've released a blog post about patch 4.0.3a hotfixes: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/1232869 We could have used an image of a goblin engineer, but I asked for an image of a gnome engineer. Gnomes are my favorite (read: favoritism). Your move, community managers who favor Horde. (Bashiok and I are still rolling goblins together on December 7) |
