Guys really take a look at the heavily armored catholic girl holding a giant Bible and think...sex
It has the same appeal as cracking walnuts.
The religion of "The Light" isn't really comparable to any real-world religion. It's a fictious religion. "The Light" is basically just God, but people in WoW say, "Believe in The Light" instead of "Believe in God" or "Believe in Jesus" they're worshipping a neutral force that is comparable to "The Force" in Star Wars. If anything, the latest expansion just proves what most people already knew years ago, and that The Light has the ability to corrupt people and turn them into religious zealots who sometimes end up harming more than protecting. It can also make you a schizo who believes everyone around you is against you. Actually...I'd say it's pretty comparable to real world religion. Never mind, OP.
>>737031261What does that have to do with having sex?
>>737031261*tips fedora to the left**stares at you**nods*
>>737031365OP mentioned Catholicism, so for some reason I honed it on that, and not the "sex" aspect of his statement. He compared "The Light" to Catholicism, which I thought was odd. I've never seen or heard anyone compare The Light or worship in WoW to an Abrahamic faith, or any faith in the real world. Just because they're Paladins and use "The Light" doesn't mean they're Catholics. The Crusades and Templars were a completely different thing. They killed in the name of worship, but it's not like they were using a magical force of energy to gain special powers.
>>737031130WoW hasn't been sex for a decade.
>>737031130Are librams even in the game anymore?
>>737031130the fuck did you interpret Catholicism from wow's vague "the light" that every species on the planet worships in a different way
>>737031261Deo grassy-ass.
>>737031130Lol the biblical god actually calls himself the alpha and the omega. He also calls himself the bull. And I think, it just really came across that way, like he’s actually been screwing all these women himself right in front of me this entire time. I didn’t really notice it was all the same person who had been cloning himself until he told me. He actually started goring my penis daily after that, now my dick looks horrible. Fuck this, I’m out. I’m walking away from this. I’m gone.
>>737031619Paladins have spells like inquisition, crusade strike, holy wrath etcPriests have prayers and can use the "dark side" to influence people and mentally torture themThe church of the holy light has a pope-like figure as its leader
>>737031470>They killed in the name of worshipMore like because irl orcs were getting cocky
>>737031130where where the fuck is Catholicism here?
>>737031619>architecture mimics catholic buildings>names like "bishop" used to define members of the light>clothing inspired by catholic priests and other clergymen>phrases based on catholic phrases
>>737031261The Holy Light is basically just the Good alignment from D&D, turned into a non-theistic religion, and then vilified because said religion holds aesthetic similarities to Christianity.
>>737031130so everyone is really going to shill Catholicism now that orange man doesn't like it, huh?
>>737031619This sounds pretty Gregorian to me and happens anytime you enter a human church. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJZ-7GUwFdk
>>737031779What kind of man has to use AI to answer something this obvious? Were your raised as an atheist or something?I'm a spic and liked to played the paladin class in Diablo and WoW because you take the role of a holy knight using a big ass shield with a CROSS on it to smash the fucking demons (atheists, feminists and trannies) to pieces
you fags are worse than Neo pagan larpers
>>737031917I knew the obvious answer.
>>737031764WoW having the light work for any overzealous retard who truly believed they were doing the right thing was a fun little twist, even if it was likely just a copout for the scarlet crusade. Them turning it into sugar-free variant of the void complete with Hitler-Yrel was really dumb and I still fucking hate Legion for being so absolutely retarded with it's writing.I'll never forget Illidan managing to convince the pope Velen to abandon his faith with nothing but pure edge after killing the "god" of the light in front of him.
>>737031130>Guys really take a look at the catholic girl and think...sexyes
>>737032046Y'rel has honestly every right to attack and try to genocide the orcs after what occured during WOD. Why a Californian gaming studio who thinks half the continent is evil because they worship an elephant over a donkey, but think the orcs need forgiveness for trying to kill all life on a planet eludes me.
Do WoW players really?
>>737031619Not from WoW but WC2 has a building called "Church" where you recruit paladins, and they say "Deo Gracias". The light has always been somewhat themed after Catholicism, or at least what I assume is some form of it.https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Church_(Warcraft_II)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psGXIP6HoQw
>>737032104>gets turned into an undead death knight questgiver in LegionFuck man I'm glad I quit back in Cata.
>>737031130
>>737032109Correct, but IIRC Yrel isn't doing it because of orcs commiting genocide, she's doing it because she became a fanatic of the new light and needs to forcibly convert everyone. if they went with the the former it would at least be understandable.
>>737032104HotS did so much for this character's popularity, it's insane. IIs it just bad memory? I don't really remember anyone giving a shit about her before, even with her ass cheeks hanging out. Herod always felt more memorable because of Ravager and all of the trainees.
>>737031130>girlWoW censored gender and called Body Type.
>>737032347>I don't really remember anyone giving a shit about her beforeshe always had a following of fans but yeah Hots did give a huge boost to her popularity.
>>7370312612002 and earlier>"the light" isnt even really a concept. priests and paladins can heal people because thats what priests and paladins do in fantasy games2004>"the light" is now given a name but is left as vague as possible. there are churches and stuff but there are never any beliefs or texts or anything resembling an actual religion. Its just like where people who can use healing magic hang out2026>"the light" was still basically never explained to players but now its actually evil because.... it just is ok!!
>>737032347I was fapping to her and Tyrandes tits since 2005
>>737032046Everything to do with that sequence was fucking retarded.Why the fuck would Illidan be the chosen one of the Holy Light? He's a Night Elf. It's not even his fucking religion. It's like if Christ returned to the Earth and declared that the new Prophet of God and Messiah is Xi Jinping. They only did it because Blizzard's philosophy of using popular old Warcraft 3 characters post Wrath is to make them the center of the fucking universe and it was Illidan's turn to be elevated to plot godhood.Velen is easily convinced against the religion he has been holding on to for thousands of fucking years even against multiple genocides of his people because he's one of the designated Good Guy Characters™ and if you're one of the Good Guy Characters™ that means you automatically agree with the writers about everything and the writers decided that the Light is bad at that particular moment.
>>737031130Have you not realized you are on a site full of pedophiles who would get their ass beat if they said shit outside that they say here.
>when the Titans moved the Goddess from her cradle, she was... LE TRAUMATIZED!
>>737031130Whitemane was better.
>>737032506you forgot 2007 when they introduced naaru
>>737033081>site full of pedosIronic
>>737031130>catholic
>>737032201That was Warcraft 1 and was retconned.
>>737033347I'm not but you didn't consider that did you. Go find something to bitch about in someone else's post.
>>737033284The way it's designed makes my furry alarm go off
>>737033528https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Warcraft_II:_Tides_of_Darkness_manual#Alliance_Buildingshttps://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Warcraft:_Orcs_%26_Humans_buildingsIt's in both.
>>737031130>heavily armoredAlso if you can tell it's a girl from one look at her body then she's not armored enough.
>>737033284>the Titans moved the Goddess from her cradleI still think it would be an amazing twist that their Goddess was Y'sharrj, since we know the Titans did rip him out of the planet.Have the new race inadvertently be Old God worshippers would be kino.
