The Old Gods are easily my favorite aspect of WoW lore, and this article brilliantly addresses them. I sincerely hope that everything you've said turns out to be true.

Agreed Kingpin007.

When we do finally send the old gods packing remember to yell over vent, "Let's show this prehistoric bitch how we do things downtown!"

I'm with you on that. If it turns out that all of Warcraft's lore is a Lovecraft-esque story in disguise, I will be extremely pleased. Obviously, there are elements of Lovecraft in the lore with all the Old Gods, but if it turns out the entire overarching purpose of Azeroth was Lovecraftian in nature ... awesomesauce.

@JattTheRogue: Where do you think the Craft in Warcraft comes from? =P

Actually, probably witchcraft or something, but it's fun to pretend that Lovecraft had a great influence on WoW, even if he was a miserable racist.
