- These cinematics may look bad for today's standards but for their time they were state of the art and ground breaking. Warcraft II Tides of Darkness was released just a few months after Toy Story. Wow, very Orc. Donate Doge Pls: DCSKYnA2NonpXJWMGv9qHWqNbLSSpakJrS
At the middle of this video, cinematics from Beyond The Dark Portal begin taking the story to Draenor, the setting of the new WoW expansion Warlords of Draenor. These cinematics were actually created for their 1997 console ports Warcraft II: Dark Saga and were not originally available for the PC version. For some reason Blizzard decided to leave out the extra Dark Saga cinematics from the new 1999 Battle.net Edition which I think would have improved the quality of that version a lot since Battle.net Edition was suppose to be the modernized, and updated version which was optimized for Windows NT.
You can visit Blizzard.com in 1997 and experience the past by going to my website www.CiniCraft.com and checking out the Time Capsule.

I just love these cinematics. The orcs here really give you a sense of just pure, dreaded evil, one that these orcs definitely resembled.
Mixed with the inevitable silliness we've grown to love
These were the Orcs I grew up with and loved!
I remember watching this in jr high and thinking "It'll never get better than this!"
And they were right it can't get better than that God I love Warcraft 2
Then Warcraft 3 happened
it hasn't.
Honestly? WC3 has nothing on WC2, I much prefer the first two games over WC3 and WoW
0:16 that Orc was such a nice dude. He gave the dead people proper cremation
Wow... thats insane how far bliz came between warcraft 2 and 3
Jacob Fernandez Yes, well there is 6 years in between. But even more impressive from Warcraft 1 - 2, just one year, and look at the graphics!
How low, you mean...
@@wiktorzelazny844 From WC2 and 3? No, it was an upgrade. Retail...could be better. Much better, even. But I do respect the fact they're expanding the Universe a ton.
They are not. They are adding random nonsense for sake of novelty and new expansion.
@@wiktorzelazny844 you’re fucking with us rn right?
0:53 "and then,the lord of terror came back from hell"
The demon is not Diablo.
Hector Aliegbe is a joke
who is the demon?
One of Sargeras' servants left in The Tomb of Sargeras which is where the little guy (Gul'dan) opened the door to
*Sargeras Dreadlord
I wonder how that guy let an ogre sneak up to him...
Rolled a nat 1?
in World of Warcraft. maybe the player paused?
1:43 that feeling when the Orks are about to break in and you need your guards right away!
Arthas’ dad lmao
@@42Nightsyesterday How tf did he survive that one? I guess his guards were no joke!
Also, in the second to last cinematic, isn't that Khadgar surrounded by the orcs? How did he escape that one? We need a sequel to the cinematic that shows Khadgar going beastmode on those orcs.
@@lorencproductionsno that's a mage from Alterac, who by this point had allied with the Horde. The orcs killed his guards because they can.
@@ianrastoski3346the guards were
not alterac I think
3:11 - 3:26 : "Hah, good old funny Warcraft 2 orcish rampag... HOLY SHIT WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT SOUND!?"
This game was my first Blizzard game..I was 8 years old and completely hooked.
Great game!
I remember being in awe of these cinematic clips back when I was like 6 or 7, coolest shit I ever saw and one of the best games Ive ever played
I found this person doing a playthrough of Warcraft 2, it's pretty great! www.twitch.tv/alarashade
Rogue Ogre. YOU CANT ESCAPE
3:51 Ha! Goteem!
@Zer01dentity In Warcraft II, Kil'jaeden was shown as a horned, winged daemon, while in Warcraft III he was shown as a red-skinned eredar. In his appearance in World of Warcraft he appears to combine elements of the two, sticking daemon wings on an eredar body, thus making him the only winged eredar in Warcraft lore (thus the difference of appearance between Warcraft II and Warcraft III is not a retcon).
back then,when the Horde was orcish!
orcish is language
Back then, when humans was HUMANS. True Warriors of the Light!
Ye orcs have been seriously sexploited over the years
Except for, you know, ogres, trolls etc...
Orcs take no prisoners. Suprisingly they dont eat the enemy.
The monster that was released was just a normal demon. It was in storyline of WC3 TFT that Gul'dan was ripped to shreds by enraged demons in that tomb.
Warcraft 2, Diablo1, and Warhammer Dark Omen are very good old games with epic music, story and cool videos.
Thanks for uploading - brought back memories of staying up all night on the Playstation playing the crap out of this game. I will subscribe - 5 stars
I remember a time when it was such a treat to see these after the advent of cdrom. There were a few games that I played through, ONLY to see the cinematics, lol. Good times.
"Orgrimm, what are you doing?"
"Succeeding you, Terenas."
Gul'dan was the power hungry warlock that led the orcs to demonic corruption and wanted to become like a god. The tomb is the tomb of Sargeras and Gul'dan thought with the power stored in there he could achieve his goal. Turns out the demons that guarded that tomb somehwat disagreed.
1:24 Green screen MLG xplosion
Yeah you right
1:44 made me laugh my ass off.... "guards" *stupid expression that lasts only a second* oh man...
2:00 Stelioooo kantoos ! Stelio !
He was as mean as he was greek....
And remember, people, some of these, particularly the ToD finale cutscene, are non-canon and would have prevented the events of Warcraft III from happening, for better or for worse.
so that's where the king dying scene comes from. cool.
I love how the human cutscenes are so epic and heroic whereas the orc cutscenes are so depressing and sinister
I wish I had played Warcraft 1 and 2, It seems they have changed so much history between those and Warcraft 3 and the books.
+iceman3317 Warcraft 1 and 2 had different stories for the factions. The canon is that in the first war Orcs won and Stormwidn fell (WC1 Orc champaing) and in the Second War the alliance retaliated and drove the orcs back (WC2 Alliance champaing). Books and other media has fleshed out teh story form those time periods (the games themselves were at times pretty bad in storytelling) but haven't changed any fundamental facts.
Lahis:
Quite a lot was changed, actually. Virtually everything about the history of the Horde, and particularly of Doomhammer's motivations and actions, was softened and molded to be more sympathetic and marketable.
@@Tamlinearthly yeah playing Warcraft 1 and 2, Orcs were through and through the bad guys.
@@RazorToaster Yeah that's because orcs are the evil spawn of Hell; it's the only way they could be so ugly.
Sweet! Even thought it's an old game i still think i would enjoy it today!
orc orc orc orc orc orc
Good cutscene. In the game, it comes right after a mission where you help the Alterac humans. In regular Warcraft II, Alterac betrayed the Alliance and got invaded by the other human nations. In the expansion, the Orc missions, the Alterac survivors agree to give you the Book of Medivh in exchange for their protection. You interact with an Alterac mage, and I assume he's the same mage we see in this cutscene. Alterac, the original wusses in the world of Warcraft.
0:45 What is going on in this scene exactly?
(Or what is is it referring to?)
Thats the original Gul'dan entering the Tomb of Sargeras and his subsuquent death to the demons inside
@@ConnorNotyerbidness So I guess it's a decoy that you kill in that mission
3:35 UH!
3:38 LOL
ok
The human death sound is amazing.
In most scenes, there always seems to be one orc saying "gedoobie!"
This was so pleasing. Brings me back to 9th grade
wonderful times, when blizzard were not afraid to put blood and violence in warcraft
They were some kind of guardians for the tomb, I assume they were imprisoned there together with Sargeras' body once and since then stayed in there until Gul'dan released them. Or short answer: yes they were.
WC2 didn't really...go into that kind of depth. However, with the new lore, yeah, that's basically the case. Kil'jaeden had agents from within the tomb, ready to kill Gul'dan once he went into the Tomb for his own selfish desires. However, in WC2, he got killed from the entrance, while in WC3 and Legion, he actually went rather far into the tomb, but he couldn't find the secrets within there whatsoever. Unfortunately for him, the real secrets came below the tomb itself. ;)
Aaah I see them now! Thanks :)
xD my sides aarhgr :D that last scene was pretty awesome though
I wish they kept the feeling of this video in their later games: 0:45
I still remember them. They are awesome. I hope warcraft 2 will be included it history books, too.
Is that Cho'Gall? Holy shit, he looks creepy af in 3:38
I know, old comment, but it`s Dentarg.
what a game....Masterpiece!
Strange though,I have Battle Net Edition,and cinematics from add on(except for ending) aren't included.:(
so that's where the blank voices scene comes from. cool.
my 1st RTS game when i was a kid
in warcraft 3 medivh mentioned himself getting killed by his own people but came back to life is a prophet
3:32 it's Sir Lothar
around 3:59 the orc near the portal was that gul'dan, the one that left doomhammers clan and wanted the power of sageras.
I don't remember the cinematics at 2:11! When were they added in Beyond the Dark Portal?
I GOT AN IMPORTANT QUESTION! i got warcraft 2 and the expansion, but i dont know when im suposed to see the cinematics, am i supposed to download them or something? plus, when i enter the game, it doesnt activate the intro and i cant activate it. really need some help
Spent hours wait days trying to beat w/out the cheats! The best strategy game I've ever played! Never got a chance to start WoW but this is were it all began youngsters! you should take a moment and play tides of darkness! Orgim Doomhammer! HANDS DOWN BEST ORC OF ALL TIME!
0:53 DIABLO!!!! lol
3:20 love that chant
This is the Battle.net edition.
In the original, when the Orcs storm the castle and kill King Terenas, when you hear his "Uuhhhhhhhhh!" (after the "....Guards!!" part), you can actually see the "oh, shit" look on his face way better.
Otherwise, though, these updated graphics are much superior
Smeggy Ben That was king Llane of Stormwind, Teranas is the King of Lordaeron during Warcraft III.
King Llane was killed in Warcraft 1.
Varien Wrynn takes over in Azeroth.
Terenas IS the King of Lordaeron, but he's been there since at least Warcraft II.
Smeggy Ben Well wasn't that King Llane in the cinematic? If it was Therenas, how did he survive? And plus, he looks nothing like Therenas from Warcraft 3.
It's definitely Terenas.
Warcraft I and II were set up much different than Warcraft 3 - their stories were "either the Orcs win or the Humans do". So when 2 rolled around, they took elements from both campaigns and put it into the story (The Orcs won, but in the Human Campaign, Lothar survived AND they killed Medivh).
It wasn't until Starcraft that they used each campaign as the next chapter for the story, and storywise, that worked much better, so they used it for Warcraft 3 as well.
That's why Terenas is still alive in 3.
He looks different A) Because he's MUCH older in 3 and B) graphics.
Gul'dan in the Warcraft 3 expansion looks NOTHING like Gul'dan from Warcraft 2, but it's the same Orc
Smeggy Ben Ohh, I get it. So in the first 2 games there are 2 different timelines for both fractions, and the series continues based on one of them. So in this cinematic the king was killed, because that was the scene for 'horde victory', but in reality the alliance won, where he isn't killed.
Now that I think of it, that was quite common for older games, like C&C Red Alert. Pretty bad way to tell a story though, glad they changed it in Warcraft III
@Dklonmy
thank you for your lore lessons.
is that why horde in the war 2 used dark magics such as death coil and whirwind? If deathknight was part of the horde unit, then is it reasonable to say that undead is more like a deformed version of orc? or were they the same originally? lore confuses me. They said spirit of the lich king was originally created by the soul of Ner'zhul.
At 2:35, this is not Stormwind but Nethergarde Keep, which is a fortress that was established near the Dark Portal at the end of the Second War.
It even resembles the current Blasted Lands!
For the fucking horde.
You can hear a hit sfx from diablo 1 in there 3:42. I think its the shield block?
The orcs now are so much more tame...sheesh.
@Agent1W the lore is that humans won the second war and imprisoned the orcs. in these games i'm fairly sure the side you play, wins.
true, i do remember a level where you have to side with the orcs (or humans depending on the campaign) i think khadgar sided with the orcs in a temporary alliance to gain the book of medivh, but i may be wrong, its been ages since i played the game
Hah, nice, for some reason my old WCII Orc Campaign tended to crash just before the second in-game cutscene, so I only really knew the one where the Orc sets fire to some Alliance nobodies. :P
@aranhaloco I don't want to nag, but I feel, I have to correct. Considering the proximity of the castle to Dark Portal in 2:35, the fortress is Nethergarde Keep.
in war 2 his name was mentioned several times mainly about his spell book
whoa... was that ner'zhul at the end there?
I remember me and a couple of friends use to hook up the computers and play multiplayer with 2 to 4 players.
@seqament 'Tis blood lust - it's a spell in-game that makes them move and attack faster. Similar to stim packs in SC.
@wjwildcat
Actually the orcish horde does have a shamanistic backgground, they've allways had. If i recall the story correctly it was gul'dan or what he is called (now the lich king) that brought the horde away from it's shamanistic routes. Don't quote me on the name since it was a long time ago since i played it.
Bloodlust in Warcraft 2 made units deal more damage per hit, and, if I remember correctly, take less damage, too.
@PhatBob777 yes it is, look it up... I'm gonna quote wowwik (WARNING! MILD SPOILERS!): "The tomb was sent to the bottom of the Great Sea by the Sundering, but was much later raised by Gul'dan who believed that the body of Sargeras contained the power to make him a god (it was in fact the promise of the Tomb of Sargeras that led Gul'dan to first open the Dark Portal)." on the cinematic, you can see Gul'Dan opening the tomb :)
Epic turtles!
@killerantzify It is basicly that some of the elves (the highborne) used recless magic which drew Sargeras's gaze to Azeroth and Sargeras arrived with the aid of the corrupted Queen Azshara and the elves freaked out and fought for their lives.
Keetoo! Keemugi!
@wjwildcat Thrall will be saved by the Goblin from the alliance, he was in his way on a journey to use his shamanic power to ask the land about something and then he got kidnapped by the alliance, and before he left he assigned Garrosh to be the warchief of the horde
3:26 Burning Blade? (Human Play - Yellow Orc) 3:38 Dentarg
The orcs got 2 campaigns in Reign of Chaos and 1 bonus campaign in Frozen Throne :)
Man.... So many sound effects... sound like Diablo 1 sounds... its amazing how far blizzard has come....was the one scene with the red guy... supposed to be like some sort of diablo?
1:56 lol that guy is cutted half
Well, I read the Tides of Darkness novel. And in that one, Doomhammer was pleased when human survivors were being tortured, he ordered the Elven race wiped out with no one taken alive, and he supported whatever it took to enslave the dragons. He would've butchered the Lordaeron capital city if he had been able to.
@tehkill3r Or a simple 'daemon' like those ones from Wc1. They also had flying daemons in Wc2 - and they used flaming swords, but they weren't all muscley or had hooves.
But yeah, they used to just call it 'the underworld' and the 'twisting nether' and the 'great dark beyond' (outer space is the latter). Now it's 'oh well all demons are united because they're part of the burning legion so they seem much more menacing that way. We don't need to take the Cthulu direction with demons.'
hahah what the hell was with the kings mouth when he said guards
The first Warhammer Fantasy Battle (that's the table top) was released in 1983.
1:17 "Get some!" LOL
lulz @ Ner'Zhul at the end, best graphics ever
lesson in life....when things go wrong,orc diplomacy works great the cinematics in this game are EPIC
and then orcs are like "WhY AlLiAnCe hAtEs us????!!!"
@wjwildcat Its the ending of the orc campaign in Tides of Darkness, so it assumes the orcs successfully storm Lordaeron. It's not canon
Just epic.
No, I'm pretty sure thats Dentarg (ner'zhuls ogre apprentice) would make more sense since ner'zhul is there too.
@ESFAndy011 Yup, that's him in all of his skullfaced glory.
1:52 SLICE AND DICE!!!
I recently installed Warcraft II and it's expansion on Vista but I don't get the (in)famous voices during the mission briefing and also the animations seem absent. Does anyone know how to fix this?
i can't remember any of the parts after 2:00, true that last time i played it i was 6years old. was it on an expansion pack after "beyond the dark portal"?
who is the wizard at 3:10
and really good made for a so old game.
@DemonOdo I don't think that was Sargeras. Later on, they suggested it was - of course, they also suggested that Gul'dan was actually inside the temple at the time when the cinema shoes a clear open sky.
Oh good ol' blizz and their ret cons. It happened so long ago that no one cares anymore. It's not like they're going to make a movie right?
half of these were exusivly only in sark saga(basicly WC2 for PS1) cause they could fit more on a disk of that type.
@Dklonmy
how did thrall turn them into shamanistic horde anyway?
back then this was the cutting edge of graphics in most game. today, its still better than most games.
