So was there another way?
Okay Uther let's hear your bright idea then
i could have just quarantined the whole city without heroes while uther arthas and jaina went and hunt the dread lords or talked to the fda or whatever.
If an entire city in my country was infected by a virus, which turned people into Undead monsters, I would absolutely support the heir of the throne personally leading a military mission to purge the city.
no uther turned out to be a bumbling idiot for WC3's pretty much entire durationdeifying him in WoW after is the funniest shit
>>719400617they were vaxxd already
>>719400740Hmm about I send two of my best knights to parley with them
>>719400617maybe if arthas funded more afterschool programs the undead would have turned good
>>719400617Nope, it was all part of the Jailor's plan. You can see this cunningly referenced in later dialogue in World of Warcraft: Shadowlands™.
>>719400617Purge the city, this foe can't be reasoned with, the infection must stop here.
No, it's a typical liberal pitfall to suggest something ugly has a more ethical alternative without bothering to state what it is, which is ironic because Uther had no trouble being a dick when his own ideals justified it. There were hints of Forsaken consciousness long before this and he was still known as numba 1 zombie slayer. It's not worth analysis, it just happened because it needed to happen. Jaina was a literal who teehee mageslut so her objections were basically worthless in this interaction, Uthers objection is shoehorned in here as an unintentional double whammy to posit Arthas against morality and against the Light since Uther is basically the poster boy.Uthers character up to this point would have come to the same conclusion.Anyways, let's talk about gay crippled trans dragons in wheelchairs now
i dont know bro, use your holy healing magic to counter the unholy dying magic? just an idea.
>Infected citizen - 1 hp>Turned into zombie - 5 hpOkay they take like 3 hits instead of 1, so what's the big dealWhy Incelthas had to kill them while in human form so bad?
>>719400617undead have rights you bigot
>>719400617There was no other way. They would have all turned.
i thought the issue Uther had was more because of how quickly Arthas jumped into "let's purge the city" wagon
What goes wrong with it is Arthas's reasoning for it. This is at a point in the story where there is no proof it cannot be cured yet so he jumps to purging on his own and acts uppity when he isn't instantly agreed with. In the end, it didn't matter who or what he saved with this because he went on to become undead and destroy the kingdom anyway.
>>719401879Gotta clear fast
>>719401819>No, it's a typical liberal pitfall to suggest something ugly has a more ethical alternative without bothering to state what it isis this why everyone who plays the OFF remake is a media literacy retard who thinks the batter is hitler or something
>>719400617be unglad that he could make it
>>719401879>>719402164Wasn't it said later in the series that, if you turn undead, you go to super ultra mega rape hell when you die? Even if it's not you fault? But it's heckin wholesome when player character death knights do it I guess?
>>719400617Even if there was, the Jailer would never allow it to happen
>>719400617quarantine the citydo research on some isolated infectedmaybe they're smart enough to be reasoned with after the transformationgenerally lots of maybes, which post-factum we know some were right and some were wrongUther's main issue was how quick Arthas was to decide, and it's the bigger issue of how his entire story arc is supposed to picture the whole path of "morally wrong but still right choices", the greatest pragmatist, the ultimate sacrifice which would lead to his and his kingdom's downfall, and I still think it was written well but after a few replays I guess it could've been written a bit less in your face
>>719400617The only other practical option would have been to quarantine the entire city, but this would have been impractical considering the size of the city compared to how many forces they had available. Not to mention there was a dreadlord with his own undead forces actively interfering. But most importantly, quarantining the city would be consigning the entire population to their death anyway, so it's not even a morally superior option.
>>719402975Damn, what a mindblowing twist... Danuser is such a genius
There was only one man who could have stopped it.
>>719400617No
>>719400617I been playing the first game and I'm making it through but its quite bullshit when the enemy cpu sends knights to your base in the first few minutes instead of archers or conjurers. A knight will pretty much always kill all peons and take like 4 or 5 grunts to kill. After which you will have a single grunt with 10% health and the cpu will already be sending another wave.Should I just be building more barracks? Theres a limited amount of resources on the maps.
>>719403065I know very little about WoW undead but don't they have to kill living humans in order to stay sane?
>>719401819A good post?On my Vee?Impossible.
>>719403447
we have to be better *crushes arthas fucking skull*
>>719403447HUMANITY WILL RISE AGAIN
>>719403447>gets mindcontrolled and then 1 shot by a demonsuch a shame, i really liked his character, even if he was a dickmakes you wonder how are humans a faction at all if it's this easy to kill them
>>719401683
>>719400617>>719400740Do nothing.If you kill your enemies, they win.
>>719402975I haven't played wow since Cata, but why is this Jailor thing mocked so much? The whole Warcraft/WoW story is basically a series of 'There's a bigger, badder guy behind the big bad guy and this was his plan all along.' The Jailer sounds like just more of the same
arthas would literally rather become a death knight than release the epstein files
>>719400617Yeah, let Uther find a better idea and take the blame once he fails.
>>719404089Chud humans will always be clowned on and killed off in pathetic ways. We must be better humans (like Anduin)
>>719404757Because it got taken to insane levels with him.
>>719400740I HATE people like this>NO YOU CAN’T DO X ITS A TERRIBLE IDEA ZOMGOk retard let’s hear your suggestion then…>OH I DON’T HAVE ONE I JUST DON’T LIKE THAT ONE NOT MY JOB TO GIVE YOU IDEAS LUL NOT MY PROBLEM
>>719404757At least stuff like the Legion and to a lesser degree the Void was set up in some capacity, then suddenly this guy who was never mentioned ever is suddenly behind everything. Also basing a story around the afterlife is one of the stupidest ideas for any plot right next to alternate universes which they also did with Warlords, complete creative bankruptcy and an insult to the established lore
>>719400617no. this entire citrella must be peeled.
>>719401819This anon knows his Warcraft.
guys what if mario was a communist
>>719400740Just cure them with Purify
>>719405462It's a me Marxio
>>719403546Those were Death Knights and their runeblades. Basically an entire army of Elric of Melniboné with the edgelord turned to 11 in the Third War and in early WOTLK who had to kill in order to keep their parasitic weapons from turning on them.
>>719400617they were unvaxxed and infectedit was necessary for their benevolent ruler to kill them to stop the spread
>>719401819>>719405403Be less obvious with your samefagging.
>>719400617The vaccine
>>719400740Well for starters Arthas, how about you actually tell me and my knights what the fuck you're rambling about in a calm and reasonable manner instead of throwing around wild accusations like a child. I know you're gigasalty I had to come and save your bacon in the last mission by how fucking bitchy you got at me when I made a small joke to lighten your mood, but you got to grow the fuck up and actually act like the future king of Lordaeron.
>>719406023You ape, I reacted to it with an Uther picture precisely because of how hypocritical Lightbringer is. Dude had no qualms about killing the Undead in either the second or third war but the moment Arthas correctly recommended purging Stratholme it's a problem.
>>719400617Reverse course to Goldshire and purge the onions supply to stop future Blizz developers from spawning
>>719403486>talking videogamesare you retarded?
No. Uther and Jaina abandoned Arthas in a time of genuine need, for nothing. It was a real 5D chess move by Mal'Ganas.
>>719405462>>719405556Mario is a plumber, he's always been part of the proletariat.
>>719400617>You may be the prince but I am still your superior as a paladinWho had the real right of superiorly in this case?
>>719405283>The Jailer was behind everything since time immemorial>Had a fucking reality wide crashout over the existence of the Void>Started manipulating from behind the scenes, caused all Four Wars, got multiple Horde warchiefs and even Varian Wrynn killed>He's just there to pantomime and ape Thanos from the MCU since at least the comics version had the reasonable deniability of wanting to bang Lady DeathYou have no idea how much I fucking hate Shadowlands on a conceptual level.
>>719401757ThisThe Jailor set all of this in motion and nothing could change it
>>719403447>cuckrithosLmao
>>719406260Purging sick humans is not the same as purging undead abominations, you necrophile freak.
>>719407086All the gay shits from the legion originally. Would have been better if they stopped the money trail gay conspiracy and just had it Shrek vs Randy 1 2 and 3 being the witch folk want man slaves
>>719407220THEY WERE ONLY INFECTED 17 HOURS AND 59 MINUTES AGO YOU SICK FUCK
>>719407220Suffer not the rotter to live. By the Light.
>>719401819>it's a typical liberal pitfallUther is Kantian.Kant is the leading philosopher of chrsitian idealism. Its capital C conservative.You are uncultured.
>>719400617No, I opened the mission in the world editor and it really looks like it's only programmed to turn out one way.
>>719404757>There's a bigger, badder guy behind the big bad guy and this was his plan all alongIs there a word for this?This is just what happens to most similar media if the authors decide to milk them forever.Be it games, tv series, anime, whatever.It's always the same shit.And I hate it because it OF COURSE retroactively fucks up everything before in the story.God I hate greedy assholes who don't care that they're ruining their own work as long as they get money from it.Hope they all boil in hell.
>>719400617he just needed to pray harder and tuen the undead villagers into lightforged undead lol
>>719400617Maybe there was, but>they were short on time (the city was already infected, and any non-infected human would probably be killed by undead / Forsaken anyway - the entire city ends up being dead no matter who kills the people)>Mal'ganis was still running around (and he would keep running around and plaguing people for as long as needed until Arthas goes to Northrend)>they couldn't just leave the city to its own fate, else every infected who turns undead will just cause more issues in nearby cities and neither of available options (wipe out everyone in the city or isolate the infected city from the rest of kingdom) was morally correctAnd between sitting on his hands or try to do at least something Arthas chose the latter option simply because he's hot-blooded and short-tempered person. And it wouldn't end with Stratholme if Arthas was to act passively just this once, so sooner or later he'd chase Mal'ganis to Northrend no matter what.If there WAS an actual better way to deal with this situation then Uther would never "no way fag" Arthas and just fucking LEAVE without doing any help, but old retard knew that he can't do shit.
Why didn't uther cast resurrect on the villagers?
>>719407945they weren't oart if his army and were neutral. You have to enlist to be resurrected.
