I don't play WoW either. I'm just intrigued about the Worgen.

Wait, are goblin towns still going to be neutral, now that goblins are part of the Horde?

well who knows if those towns are even still around, the whole earth rending and tearing could destroy those towns so they have to make new ones

Goblin society is very economically based, and is split at the top by Trade Princes, which each controlling different cartels. Each cartel does their own sort of thing. Some Trade Princes control cartels that are partial to different things, such as the Venture Co.
Some are neutral, such as the Steamwheedle Cartel, which control major cities such as Gadgetzan, Booty Bay, Ratchet, etc.

The goblins you play are part of the Bilgewater Cartel, a completely different group. Through the player starting area you'll have your explanation as to why they join the Horde. I don't know why, I haven't played it, but I assume it will most likely have to do with a necessity for survival.

Just because humans are a playable race for the Alliance, doesn't make all Human factions Alliance. The defias brotherhood and the syndicate are both very human groups, but also very hostile to player characters.

Just because the trolls are a playable race for the Horde, doesn't mean the Amani tribe, the Gurubashi tribe, the Zul'Drak and Zul'Farrak trolls are any but hostile towards anyone. Even the Zandalarian tribe are a neutral group.

Just because one faction of goblins join the Horde, doesn't mean all the goblins join the wHorde. There will still be neutral groups of goblins, and there will still remain hostile groups of goblins, even towards their own kind.

You forgot Sandfury. I'm dissapointed.

Uh. Hm. Has anyone found a fix for the WoW Model Viewer?

The fuck are Sandfury? Fuck off noob. :colbert:

You know, it was obvious when the Blood Elves and Draenai came out, but now it's really obvious with the Goblins and Worgen...

The older models are such lower quality than the new ones... I wonder when if ever Blizzard will update the old races?

Also, some of the people who are getting to sample a demo of the new quests are apparently reporting that Thrall is now moving towards the evil side of orcs, and has become a royal jerk, and downright horrible. THE HELL IS THE FUCKING BULLSHIT? Are you fucking kidding me? Is Blizzard fucking seriously making the New Horde back into the Old Horde?

Killing Carne? Making Thrall evil? Making Hellscream the new leader of the Horde?

FUCK THIS BULLSHIT

Maybe he's being controlled by a demon? Or a demon is taking th eplace of the elements that Shamans normally converse with. Remember how the original Orcs were turned evil.

Original orcs were good, albeit somewhat violent. They were tricked by demons who had imprisoned the spirits of the Orc's ancestors, and pretended to be them in their place. They were then enslaved for around 50 years before being freed.

But yeah... I should freaking hope they aren't going to try and say Thrall is stupid enough to fall for that trick.

Are dragons capable of choosing their form? I guess they are, I've never seen a dragon use more than one non-dragon form before though.

Of course, lorewise, Onyxia is dead, the current thing with her still being alive is "for the lulz"

However, another dragon doing that might be kinda cool.

Maybe it's Deathwing, I mean he's pretty powerful now right?

If Thrall really does turn out to be evil I will be so fucking rustled. Thrall is the most badass guy ever.

dragons have always been able to cast illusions of themselves, in D&D they can polymorph and tend to lead human lives out to liven up their boredem (or to do what onxiya did and manipulate humans towards their own ends)

Let's keep all this in perspective.

The expansion hasen't been released yet. Those people who played the demo haven't played the entire starting area. No one knows exactly what the story is yet. I suggest waiting until the expansion has begun beta and people get to actually play the entire thing before making such drastic judgements.

Superior Bacon · **Posted:** Fri Aug 28, 2009 6:03 pm

Well, all I'm saying is I won't be too pop flyin' if they make Thrall evil. Dunno if they will or won't, but I'm really hoping they won't.

Fauche · **Posted:** Fri Aug 28, 2009 6:05 pm

We don't even know if it's entirely true, or if these events are being taken out of context. Maybe it has an entirely different meaning, or outcome, or reason for it occuring. I highly doubt Blizzard would make Thrall evil without good reason, considering their absolute love and respect for the character, especially Chris Metzen, the head honcho of lore as well as Thrall's voice actor.
