    Frost, it was never stated that they were born that way... they were twisted by Sauron's evil magic

    of course they aren't going to have time to bring up the orcs as much as the other races... have you seen have big middle earth is? The fact that Tolkien had enough time to even explain what he did is a miracle in it's own. You are focused too much on one aspect of a story has excels everywhere...

    And I think you are being way too stubborn about this, considering I doubt anyone else would consider elves who were twisted by evil magic and shunned by their original people and became filled with hatred and resentment as 1 dimensional or a waste of lore :/

    most of what I remember reading focused more on the idea of only needing to explain what you need to explain and that it's perfectly fine to have a nameless army... plus someone explaining how Tolkien's orc actually had worldbuilding, it was just cut from the movies

    I would rather focus on the characters and let their interactions and knowledge build the world for me... plus, there is no winning or losing... just you being the only person out of everyone who actually has that ideal

    Long story short: Dahl is an orc, fantasy is not real life, sometimes generic baddies are good to have, Marine is a Tiefling who like fucking with orcs, Black is envious of all of us for various talents (and one I don't have), and worldbuilding can indeed be taken too far.

    I know that I am a good writer, I just feel like I don't invest as much into writing as I should... and I still don't have a proper understanding of how I write/my writing style

    why do I feel like you guys put more time, passion and thought into all of your writing then I do? Everyone can answer in multi paragraph responses while I barely manage to squeak out a few sentences when it matters...

    correction, The orcs were slaves to Sauron... none of them were working for him willingly. Though it is never stated, it is heavily implied as such

    Which is why you have to make the main threat compelling... the army simply acts as a basis for their power. The orcs in LotR didn't need to be impressionable because Sauron existed and that was more then compelling enough to people to care (and that wizard guy that I can never remember the name...

    Not every villain needs to be relatable... and no writer has the time to make every grunt relatable. Sometimes big mean orcs gotta be big mean orcs...

    why fix the guidelines when you can just build upon them? That's what the Warcraft team and Tolkien did. Before LotR, Elves were evil trickster from folk lore
