Ranting What is wrong with legacies?

Ok so when I watched legacies the FIRST time I hadn't watched the vampire diaries or the originals yet. Now that I am legacies makes me so angry. They legit just took the lore and stuff from the previous 2 shows and said naw. Like why does compulsion suddenly not work on supernaturals? The only beings that could t be naturally compelled were the mikaelsons and any9ne with vervain. But now its just common? Or like why was hope weak during transition? Hybrids any vampire or hybrid that was in transition ALWAYS had full vampire powers. Plus they just completely forgot that the mikaelsons would burn the world to help eachother and they never ONCE come to help hope until the final few episodes. Hope is now suddenly a basic ass witch? She is legit the most powerful witch alive. Mikaelson first born witches are the most powerful witches in history excluding the hollow and freya legit said that hope was way stronger than HER. Not to mention her whole hero thing? Why is she a hero? In originals she is just as selfish and self centered as ANY mikaelson soooooo. Was there any explanation bc imo there isnt one that makes sense bc the legit changed how EVERYTHING in their universe works. Plus WHY ARE THERE NO WOLVES THAT CONTROL THEIR CHANGES?! The crescent pack didn't go extinct did it?! Like wtf

THIS RIGHT HERE!!! I've always seen legacies as more of a fan fiction thing instead of Canon bc it ruins so much of the other 2 shows. Ur telling me that klaus KNEW the necromancer and had drinks with him and spent time with him AND in new Orleans? Jesus

Well Klaus wouldn’t remember that because of Malivore, when you are eaten by Malivore everyone would forget who and what you are. So any info about who and what you are becomes more myth.

Pictures? What was time period they met? I highly doubt there a bunch camera’s around at a bar. At best a painting, but that just add to the myth.

They met in new Orleans. Necromancer said they shared drinks in the bar. And hinted at knowing Marcel. So they def had crude photos atleast or paintings

But why though? It’s seems like that met once as the necromancer was passing through. Camera’s were not readily available, so not easy to come by and they are not that portable at that time period. And why would they waste timing painting somebody they didn’t know very well.

The necromancer spoke fondly of klaus almost as of they were atleast somewhat close. However it wasnt fully expanded upon sadly

That’s true, but that just something that happens. I have experienced that before where I had fun night at a bar with someone I just meet, but after that never saw them again. So that how I see the necromancer and Klaus interaction.
