Some of you guys have never played a healer and it shows

-Syn: That is how a class-based MMO system works, There are more classes than Healer, which inherently means people do have to play it for the first time at some point.

Edit: someone brought up a good point, @ dps who think they understand a healers job w/o having ever played a healer, just know I really really don’t like you.

Before the computing era, ILM was the master of oil matte painting, making audiences believe that some of the sets in the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogy were real when they weren’t. They were the work of geniuses like Chris Evans, Michael Pangrazio, Frank Ordaz, Harrison Ellenshaw and Ralph McQuarrie ! Forever thank you, to their handmade art and the work of their colleagues, that made us dream of impossible worlds and fantastic places across Earth and the Universe.

There are more background paintings on this article, featuring comments by the masters/artists themselves ! 

Some of the following pieces were made by other artists 2:

daedra: we’re invading

overstimulated: can’t do it because everything is too much

“The guy got on the roof of his van with a crazy look in his eyes I’ve never seen before, as if in his universe there was only him and the Skywhale. He hurled the broomhandle like a harpoon, got it right through the eye.

“We all clapped and cheered, not like we hate the Skywhale or anything but it was just unbelievably cool.”

It then took several hours for security staff and onlookers to disentangle Ahab from the corpse of the Skywhale which had slowly but majestically fallen directly on top of him, like a heavenly blanket with massive breasts.

The sculpture, a hot air balloon depicting a whale as it may have evolved if it lived in the air rather than the sea, has had a mixed reception since it was first launched in 2013. Critics of the Skywhale cited its outlandish appearance, large breast-like appendages and ‘dumb, smug whale face’.

…

Artist Patricia Piccinini, who designed the sculpture, has asked that charges not be pressed against Mr Ahab, claiming that she was “invigorated” to see the public engaging with the artwork on such a meaningful level and that she couldn’t ask for a “more fitting way for a big balloon that looks like a whale to complete its lifecycle in the public eye.”

Furthermore the conflict right now is entirely the fault of the horde or rather sylvanas. The horse were never the good guys due to the orc nationalists and forsaken slavers and murderers. The plot of cataclysm and pandaria resulted in most of the orc nazis dying with garrosh. So now the orcs aren’t brimming with geniciders who think it’s ok to take if the victim is to weak to fight you off. That leaves sylvanas who’s said ‘death to the scourge and death to the living" who saw hell and decided all her minions were arrows in her quiver to stop death from reaching her. She does legitimately think undeath is superior and the living cannot coexist. But the problem is she is willing to force those ideas on others. In every piece of media she’s in we see she’s willing to lie to and manipulate the horde to suit her goals. The events of A Good War was her using the hordes hatred and prejudice to put enough fear into them to manipulate them. See her conflict in lordearon she basically says “if you aren’t willing to defile the hordes dead you want us to die” making her sound like a patriot and anyone who has as problem with rapping the dead as the bad guys.

The horde will oust her diplomatically and 2 or more expansions of peace will rein do to the horde realizing their prejudices were used to commit evil and the fact that the only things keeping them from being a good faction are removed. That will leave the alliance and horde lead by 2 ppl who are friends. No doubt before it’s over the night elves will go to far. Remember in legion us going to argus was a surprise. So as far as we know in 8.3 a giant fleet of Nauru are going to arrive, see an entire planet full of void ( old gods and at least 4 playable races affected by void) , declare marshal law and use the alliances 4 priest faction leaders to start a campaign to crystallize everything starting with the horde who’s lead by a literal shadow monster.

But regardless I’m sick of ppl wanting genn who has every right to hate sylvanas forever or anduin who’s never had a mean thought and is just a child, to be the bad guys when the reason the horde has been is because orcs love genocide and forsaken love it more.
