     @massivelyop ah! Only 20 years too late! Who will care about the story if they won't know anything that came before it? Kind of a useless endeavor, no? They've been playing to the hardcore, "lore doesn't matter" types for 20 years, it's a wasted effort to go against that now.

     @BeAware I do wonder whether it's too late now. The types of people who would want this were chased out of WoW a long time ago and have other homes now. I specifically remember writing about this problem during Wrath and being ridiculed endlessly by the players benefiting from the gatekeeping, all supported by the dev team. [-Bree]

     @bearmine @massivelyop I enjoy reading the texts for certain context, but yeah...😬I feel like they're putting their eggs in the wrong basket.

     @massivelyop @BeAware I never did any raiding in WoW. Rarely did dungeons. As far as I’m concerned, playing WoW from vanilla through Cataclysm before dropping off, the only lore/story was the trailers. The only in-game lore for players like me was atmospheric. I also never read the walls of text in quests, which may have had story. But putting giant walls of text in my face and forcing me to read them is not fun.

     Warcraft story ended at the end of WC3.
