In 1994, Warcraft started with a simple premise -- Orcs versus Humans. It was an age old idea that built off the precepts from classic fantasy novels and tabletop games, and one that endured for decades into the zeitgeist MMO iteration that played off of the classic RTS series.
23 years later, Blizzard would announce World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth, an expansion that once again sees the horde and alliance battling it out for supremacy. While it's an obvious ploy to play up the whole "faction battle" mentality that seeps through the meta, Blizzard also maintains they've been building up to the idea for years.
