So firstly about the expansion: Its the same as BfA except the story reached a new low and it has significantly less content for the same price. At this point even a common evening tale makes more sense and tbh is more enjoyable even with semi-adult mind. Sad. Apart from this Blizzard seemingly could not learn anything from the failure of 8.0 and then the additional mess that was caused by the system-on-system design. SL repeated all of the errors and just like BfA, it was playable only by 9.1.5 when the Covenant system got fixed. Then in 9.2 they again felt like: the game is too playable and we should break it somehow: lets add more and way more powerful stuff on the top of what we already have and see how it works with barely any testing, instead of presenting a sensible storyline and more actual content. That is 9.2 SL S3. BfA at least had better story and very nice open world zones stuffed with way way way more content for the same price. SL cuts on both the amount content and on the quality of the game too. Secondly however: I see this critic that wow promotes racism because it forces certain races to certain parties. Yes this is almost by definition racism, but pls observe this game again, play with it, honestly, its enough if you just do the Zuldazar quests till lvl 20, that's free. Can you honestly say that what this game presents to you resembles to what our current world is? Basically every single quest requires you to KILL something or STEAL something, DESTROTY something. Also you are allowed to KILL PLAYERS of the opposite faction, hell even players of your faction under certain circumstances. And lets not even talk about certain, more difficult (to analyze) story lines(which includes mass murders, genocides, tortures and many more). This world is nothing like what we live in. It however is similar to older, simpler periods of humanity where things actually worked quite similarly. So this is why I think this critic, that wow promotes racism is not really justified. No one should compare what they see here to our reality, that would be like saying that a film which takes place in the 1800s is relevant to our current society and promotes something unacceptable. It DOES NOT. Thats the point. All it does is just presenting things objectively, as they were, not as they are today and especially not how it should be. That being said I too would be happy if each race would be like Pandaren and were given a choice on lvl 10, but I can see why is this something that Blizzard can hardly help with. The existing stories(both written and in-game), the playable content and the entire setting is built differently. Therefore I do not think that its fair to call WoW or Blizzard racist because at this point we should have a look at quite a lot of other ****. History should be respected and we all should learn from it, instead of trying to change it so it looks better for us.
