So like hot take but when are we going to start blaming blizzard for not giving their writers the actual lore of the game and forcing the writers to figure it out on their own than blaming the writers? These writers all have a great writing style but aren’t given any help on the flow of the plot from Blizzard.
Christine Golden has said before she was hired to blizzard and basically given the plot of her first wow book and blizzard was like “write this” and gave her no help. She wasn’t told the lore. She wasn’t told the characters in detail. She had to constantly ask Chris Mezten every step of the way because blizzard would not help her.
So apparently the newest discourse is that Christine Golden looked into a actual war crime case to help her write Garroshs trials and so researching shit to apply to your writing and get inspiration is “bad writing” now? Okay
