the orcs did not cut ties with garrosh, they stuck with him till the end which is why we had a whole raid full of orcs to kill, orcs got obnoxious with garrosh in Wrath
I mean I agree with you about the orcs being fairly good up until garrosh but garrosh and his story single handedly ruined orcs, the orcs also suffer from WoD being so fucking awful
there were some things I enjoyed about orcs in WoD like the iron horde traitor blacksmith in talador, if there was more of a clear plot line (espically for the horde who doesn't even learn that the shadowmoon wasn't willingly joining the IH) about the orcs having second thoughts about genociding everything or more orcs showing second thoughts for the iron horde (like the already mentioned weapon smith) I would be more accepting of the orcs not being inherently evil, but everything we've seen thusfar leans towards orcs typically being evil

They cheered for the easy and quick results Garrosh promised to give them. Once Garrosh's insanity became obviously they cut off ties.
Also in Warlords the Shadowmoon only followed because they were told "follow or we will kill you". If the orcs are evil it's because of shitty writing, and even then there are ways to argue they aren't inherently evil.
If the way Garrosh was raised BEFORE thrall showed up is the "true orc way" garrosh would have killed himself due to how badly grom dropped the ball

I'm saying this because I don't want to crap the thread but no Daelin was still wrong. The Orcs were actually pretty decent in Vanilla and the first two expansions. They only got obnoxious in CAta, and even THAT is easily explained as "resentment from being beaten shat on and mistreated in the camps for what their parents did" and "the alliance cut off trade causing orcs to die in the streets mostly for what the foresaken did."
To quote the shattering "My people hunger, they thirst for clean water, they must have wood for housing. They believe they were wronged when the night elves closed the trade routes. They see this unwillingness to fill basic
needs as a brutal act?and someone, somewhere, decided to retaliate in kind.?
?Slaughtering night elves and removing their skins is in-kind retaliation for closed trade?? Her voice rose.
?Closed trade permits children to starve, to be exposed to the elements, to become sick. The logic ? I can follow it. And so can others."
