World of Warcraft: "My Bias"
Posted: Wednesday October 1st, 2014

I mentioned Monday that I've been forcing myself to play an Alliance side character I created back when the game was released. In the decade or so that I've been playing WoW I've never hid the fact that I'm massively biased toward the horde side. I've even bluntly stated that Grek, my Orc Warrior, is completely xenophobic. I've even gone so far as to call him racist, in a world where racism is an actual thing, not just an inaccurate word choice applied to people who are essentially "colorists".
At any rate, playing this Alliance character, seeing the insane amount of quest overlap between factions, it amused me that the sides can hate each other so much. But that's the world Blizzard scripted us in to. So, despite my amusement at the situation, I do still hate the Alliance.
