2. "Convenient that they sound exactly like humans and not spiders".

   Yeah, and they even speak english.

   Would have been better they just make some weird noises and you just know shit what they are saying, right?

   It's a fantasy setting. A high fantasy setting. And in this setting the even DO use different languages and when you use "Say: …." and you are for example an Orc and an Alliance player is near, they will only see "Orcish:" and some nonsense they can't understand.

   Obviously those Nerubians will speak in their mother tongue, but for the audience to understand it's english instead.

   German synchro by the way does play around with voice alteration. Doesn't really make it better.

3. How Xal'atath even calls the queen wise (for not following her temptation) – and at the end that "Long live Queen Ansurek" – she knows exactly, that she will not live very long.

   The queen had likely a long live with many heights and even more depths. She knows about the power of the old gods and the cost of using that power – the reason why she killed that messenger without any emotion about it.

   Meanwhile all the daughter saw, born into this situation where their dynasty was at is peak, was that power – and everything afterwards just a continues downfall.

   So it was easy to trick her. And of coursse Xal'atath spoke with th queen in that moment for the daughter to see, how the mother knew about how to restore people and wealth to their people and just denies it. "Too risky."

   Didn't take more than that, just showing, how everything could be different. The mother knew about the costs, the daughter not and does not care. A problem you see in RL over and over and over again, that people don't listen to the wise, but to the lies and even kill the wise people, just to run into their doom. Again and again and again.

4. It's a safe bet that Alleria is our "flagship character" yes, very astute of you to pick up on that. We had Thrall for Cataclysm, Khadgar in Warlords of Draenor, etc. Sometimes they kind of have more than one like Bolvar kind of started us off in Shadowlands but there were others later on. Magni kind of started us off in BFA but again others kind of were major lore figures as that went on like Jaina, Saurfang, Talanji (who doesn't get enough screentime after BFA IMO). Some of the questions you've asked or things you haven't seen are explained in IN GAME cutscenes and the annoucnement and Features trailers which you should check out. The odds of you triggering all those in game cutscenes are kind of out of the way because some of them are like end of the raid cutscenes. Like Arthas dying at the end of Wrath of the Lich King in Icecrown Citadel. Unless you go back and solo those raids at a way higher level with gear from other expansion you probably won't see them. Also, I have a MASSIVE 200+ video playlist you might wanna look at, I gotta do some work on it again I haven't for a year or two but it could help you.

   Another good observation you made, we probably will fight Queen Ansirek as the final boss of the first raid tier. I doubt we'll actually fight Xal'atath, I have this theory she's building a new body (a more Old God esque body to properly channel more of her power). Keep in mind she's something like an Old God or Void Lord so this Void elf chick's body she's inhabiting is probably one VERY tiny representation of her true nature. This is a trilogy of expansions (first time they've ever done that BTW) so I think Xal'atath has to be present for at least WoW: Midnight maybe not The Last Titan though, she might be the final boss of Midnight. Not sure who the final boss of the last raid will be, I'm hoping they do more than 3 raids, I'm kinda getting sick of them giving us tiny amounts of content compared to like….5 raids in Legion or 6 in Wrath. They kind of seem to do less and less dungeons and raids which hurts a core WoW player a bit but we'll see.

   YOU SHOULD watch the Blizzcon panel from last year it would be a good react, you'd kind of see what Chris Metzen is all about and how he's kind of the FATHER of the lore in some ways. M+ is a max level version of dungeons after Normal/Heroic/Mythic. It's a thing they added in Legion in 2016 where the loot and stuff works different. If you're familiar with Greater Rifts from Diablo 3 they're like that. A timed boss rush version of Dungeons where you have to clear it to get a higher key to do higher and higher versions example M+ 2 Key win the timer it upgrades to an M+ 4 key. Originally dungeons were just to get XP and gear while leveling and later max level or near max level dungeons were just to get your pre-best-in-slot (pre-bis) gear to start raiding. Now Mythic Plus has sort of evolved into it's own thing and they try to push it as a damn e-sport where teams compete against each other, fun to watch sometimes and you pick up some insane strategies from the super sweaty players.

   BTW "Entire History of Warcraft in 23 minutes" by Hidden Azeroth" that shit is hilarious and would be a damn good react video for you.
