A Brief Intro on Allied Races and BfA Story

According to PCGamesN, the World of Warcraft Production Director John Hight discussed in an interview about Allied Races and How Blizzard created the Battle for Azeroth story which is different from the one in Legion. Here are some highlights in the interview. Besides, you can check out news column to know more about the next expansion, Battle for Azeroth. More than that, raiditem.com provides you with a wide range of WoW items.  

Allied Races

- Blizzard initially thought it would be interesting to have the Zandalari Troll Allied Race available before the launch of Battle for Azeroth, but later decided that the race should unlock later as we haven't experienced the storylines yet to gain their trust.

- One factor of choosing the faction for each Allied Races is visuals. Blizzard doesn't want one faction to end up with all the cute or tough-looking characters.

- Wildhammer Dwarves are possible as an Allied Race, but no immediate plans.

- Blizzard decided to combine several Orc Clans into the Mag'har Orc Allied Race because they realized all the orcs can eventually look very similar when armored up, so it would be hard to make distinct clans as separate Allied Races.

- Blizzard also addressed a question relating to datamining and speculation on upcoming Allied Races. This is a popular topic on Wowhead, so we've pasted the full reply below. Based on the wording, it could mean that some datamined races are later making it into the game as Allied Races, just not at launch. The most obvious example which comes to mind is the Vulpera, since they have many customization options and distinctive animations.

Battle for Azeroth Story

- Expansion plots are usually developed two to three expansions in advance.

- Battle for Azeroth following Legion is interesting because we're exploring what happens in the absence of a large threat like the Burning Legion. We are our worst enemy.

- Battle for Azeroth will have two distinctive stories, tailored to each faction. Legion more-or-less told the same story for both factions.

- The battle between the factions is reminiscent of the plots from the early storytelling days of WoW.

- Blizzard has two members of the storytelling team responsible for each faction's story. The Alliance and Horde teams meet regularly to communicate the plot development with each other. They've started developing content like this earlier than ever before, so they can play through the game and catch issues like pacing concerns quickly.

- While different factions may win and lose various battles in BFA, Blizzard doesn't want the end of the expansion plot to make players feel like they've definitely chosen the wrong faction.
