'It's easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism.'
I stopped following Warcraft after TFT but why are the Orcs brown?

I'm guessing it's related to the weird retcon where the 'bad' Orcs were all actually red-skinned and not green from Warcraft 3?

A Buttery Pastry posted:

Brown (and other earth tones) is the natural orc color, but nearly the entire species was corrupted by demons, which turned their skin green. Though as you mention, in Warcraft 3, demonic corruption turned green orcs red.

Mountain dew is what caused the corruption of the orcs in the first place.

so the orcs are brown skinned savages from another world?

ahahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAH
