Gazlowe giving his workers paid vacation days for putting effort into their work? That's a damn good boss if you ask me.
Edit: As well as paying full life insurance to the families of those who died under his watch? I would work for this guy.
As far as goblins go, Gazlowe would definitely top the list of who I'd work for. In fact he's the only goblin I'd ever work for.
@@HouseOfAlastrian Gazlowe was once part of the Steamweedle Cartel which, while far from being paragons of virtue, are the most ethical of the known goblin factions.
They're more ethical then Gallywix's Bilgewater Cartel and definitely more ethical then the Venture Company.
So it may seem surprising to see him do such kind acts it's really not once you think about it.
@@Gruntman1234 very good point there.
It's always in a goblin's nature to be overly concerned with making money... but that in and of itself isn't necessarily evil... it's neutral.
It's how one goes about making that money that determines whether it's good or bad, and the Steamwheedles are definitely on the more ethical side of the coin, which is why both Horde and Alliance can do business with them. I imagine Gazlowe and Gallywix very rarely see eye to eye on things though.
@@HouseOfAlastrian I mean to be fair morals heavily depend on your beliefs, for example a moral anti realist would say morals don't exist and every action can be deemed moral it just depends on your viewpoint
@@Lors_101 yeah until you kick their fuckin ass. then suddenly you’re in the wrong 😑
I love how they showed and represented Gazlowe in Mechagon. Considering he has Bilgewater Goblins working for him and they highly respect him I have hopes there's a potentiality for him to become Trade Prince should Gallywix bite it.
Skoll Shorties You Have Accepted the Quest:
Hostile Takeover 2: Electric Boogaloo
Maybe Gallywix can become the next leader of the Horde, and then horde players can unite with the alliance to take him down after he goes too far....
@@TheZorginator1 Stop sinning.
@@TheZorginator1 smfh
WHEN Gallywix bite it :D
Its funny how this side zone is more interesting than the main zone for the patch.
For me the storytelling is ruining most of my interest in Nazjatar - for the Horde side it starts with a cutscene of an ocean chase with absolutely no build-up, explanation or context (aside from Nathanos being led by the blade to some form of rendezvous), then you're trapped in Nazjatar with everything looking bleak as hell, and you're informed Azshara could flood it again and kill the vital Horde/Alliance leadership at any moment.
Oh, but not to worry - gilgoblin ex machina because "hey you're not naga, let's team up, we've got a base and everything", and the gilgoblins are both eloquent and compassionate which is completely going against everything we've known about them so far. Whatever, somehow we get a portal up despite teleportation being blocked, k great let's get out of here before we're flooded, BUT NO LET'S BRING IN MORE TROOPS TO THE SLAUGHTER - and tortollans show up just to do sight-seeing! SIGHT-SEEING! Why are we not immediately retreating out of this severely life-threatening TRAP and forming a plan to take on Azshara from a position of strength instead?
So now we're just running around and killing naga, gathering resources for our new sea-dwelling friends, exploring, collecting treasure, reminiscing about past civilization, what danger, there's no danger here. Basically, the writers wanted us to get to Nazjatar and into the palace so their story could continue to unfold, but didn't care enough to set up a motivation to do so (or even write a short explanation as to why there's suddenly a sea chase with major characters involved to begin with). It's all going to be chalked up to "we were compelled to do so", i.e. "Old gods did it". Again.
Wow, that went places. Sorry.
Personal opinion. I prefer Nazjatar myself.
Your videos are really helping me understand all the lore I missed. The amount of content is massive and overwhelming but I'm getting through it slowly but surely. Thanks for what I imagine is a huge amount of work to put all this together.
Honestly I’m just glad the gnomes have a story act for once.
You’re keeping the lore more exciting. Thank you!
I went to Mechagon on the horde and I was surprise that the goblins had a heart about the lost crew (been around Gallywix too much I guess)
Gazlowe is basically the by far wiser goblin, thinking completely in long-term value. To quote him: "I want the best men, so i pay them the best to offer, so they don`t run to the competition."
Gazlowe is a goblin to the core...but he isn't stupid or heartless. The goblins would be way better off with him as Trade Prince.
Gazlowe has never really been a re goblin, he has never been selfish enough.
@@MrGoesBoom spoiler alert
He became the new Trade Prince after Gallywix fucked off and left the Horde with his fortune at the very end of BFA
I love that Gazlowe's greasmonkies act like an italian mob.
"Ice the rest of them."
Goblin culture
Funny thing about Prince. He knows Gazlowe's name ever without Gazlowe telling him.
he already knew their goals and plans, but it doesn't matter cus he knows the real problem is his father, not the gobling or the gnome that wants to be famous.
Wait wait wait.... A GOBLIN said "Pay out the life insurance to their families. Full value. No hagglin'"?!?!?!?!… I'm pretty sure Helheim froze over when Gazlowe said that, and the Trade Prince probably suffered a minor heart attack!... I.... I think I just gained a bit of respect for that Yoda looking little booger, lol.
My favorite part the intro quest is depicting the alliance as the villainous ones for once.
I did not see that, and now from the future we know mechagnomes join the alliance
Öhh one side wants to steal their technology the other one wants to recover their lost civilization? Idk but horde doesn’t look too good here
Ohh and they also introduced themselves via air strike so idk not the cutest cuties around
At least goblins have an insurance...
I love how the Mechagnomes have some of the darkest lore, but ppl still don't look into them. The RP is grimdark, easily when the mechagnomes start talking about their lives.
Gazlowe was kind enough to give me a blaster that is AWESOME! wish it was my actual weap. it is so cool. the visual omg.
I knew Prince Erazmin sounded so familiar! He's voiced by Scott Menville who also voiced Robin from Teen Titans!
right? I was half expecting him to yell "Mecha-Titans Go!" :p
That’s playing with my head lol
Even Nobbel hates Gila's attributing everything we do to Overspark.
Overspark is an arrogant prick. I compare Gila and him to LeFou and Gaston, which makes them a bit more entertaining.
Gila is cute. She's just documenting the expedition.
She’s just doing her job
Sooooo goblins are smarter than gnomes? Gazlowe DID figure out how to stop the machine while Overspark got lucky.
ONE Gnome didn't figure it out, but that doesn't make Gonlins smater then Gnomes. Notice how Goblins are always leeching off Gnomish tech, that's because they don't have the skill, or intelligence to make their own.
I think it’s mostly the incompetence of the gnomish leader of the group and also the false assumption of how they were going to be greeted in mechagon. The goblins just have a better leader in these expedition and had knew to expect the worst scenario.
Gazlowe is just more competent. Honestly I don't know why they picked the shittiest and most unlikable gnome character to lead the expedition when they know damn well most players already hate gnomes.
well... overspark is one giant idiot and gazlowe is not. its not realy about the races.
Gnomes, overall, are smarter than Goblins, at least when it comes to tech. Overspark, however, is a colossal fool and Gazlowe is a very savvy Goblin. You don't need better tech when one side is led by an idiot.
Thanks for keeping me in the lore updates while I’m out of the game. Good to know what I’m missing
I also enjoy mechagon! The Gnomicide I am getting to commit is amazing.
Funnily enough Curse of Flesh gave them freewill. We are not sure yet but it is very possible that Titan Creations are droid races.
They can think for themselves even before the curse. Nothing suggest that they didn't have free will before it.
So Gazlowe can dead lift a Gnome one handed!?
hating Nazjatar atm but loving Mechagon atm
Hey I got a question guys : ''So are the Encoded messages we used to get from Blingtron 5000 and the stories contained in them about the War between Blingtron units and something called iR-T0, in any shape or form related to the Mechagon Island?''
King Mechagon: "Lawrence, get the biobliterator ready!"
Ratchet and Clank reference?
Thank heavens! I thought I was the only one who got that!
Yes!
@@toddmaccarone5973 I didn't spoke English when I played the game, so remembering this was a big shot in the dark.
Nazjatar: Fall into the trap of Fish Queen where you could escape any minute with a stupid portal
Or...

I want another warcraft movie but with Peter Dinklage in it.
8:39 always keep hitting it until it works again, ah beating up my old tv good times lol.
Awesome the goblin and gnome couple are alive, that’s good to know!
Blizzard always expanding the world building is just great.
The biggest mystery of all...how did the Kul’tirans not see this island?
Or just too small, and not on the commercial road. I don't know if the map is scaled.
@Infamous Iguana
Is that the canon, or are you just speculating? You should clarify.
@@RileyRivalle2 Jokingly its "Fog of War" nothing exists until you discover it. the second more real answer is how did neither zandalar or Kul tiras not occupy the broken isles this large andmass that really only had vrykul on 1/5th of it and tauren on 1/5th and nightborne basically hidden in suramar. Azsuna, suramar(zone not city), and valsharrah would have been pretty open to colonization. The islands on the world map have to be scaled up so they can actually be of use to us players for navigation but if kul tiras was actually 1/3rd of the size of the entire eastern kingdoms then they would have been the major power house of the alliance not Lorderon and then Stormwind. And same thing the Zandalari would not have tried to ally with the mogu in MoP if the surrounding islands were actually that large, they wouldent need land in pandaria at all.
@Kyle Ellis
Of course, but seeing as Pandaria specifically was canonically hidden by a magical mist I was wondering if the same held true for Mechagon like @Infamous Iguana implied.
@@RileyRivalle2 I was talking about the isles not pandaria and the fog of war is just from warcraft1-3 the parts of the map you hadnt discovered yet i wasnt refering to the magical mists sorry for the confusion.
basically the islands on the map have to be way bigger then they really are and moved closer togethor for us so they only have to use one map/give us better definition on them and add to it instead of entirely new maps. alot of maps will stretch things at the edges just to make things fit. mechagon is probably kilometers out to sea but looks close to kultiras for us the players.
Sargeras: destroy living beings to fight the Old gods. Mechagon: cure the curse of flesh. Mechagon >>> Sargeras haha
Gazlowe I still owe him for my nice Garrisons!
comments: 70% about Gazlowe
30% about Mechagon > Main content
I still had the video speed set to .50 from watching another video.. and when this one started, I never laughed so hard.. Noebbels sounded so hammered!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂
King Mechagon sound like mix between Megatron from Transformer beast machine and Doctor Eggman Robotnix from the Sonic series.
World of Warcraft - Cyberpunk ft Keanu Reeves as mechanized Wrynn.
Anduin or Varian? Cause Varian was disenchanted for dust
@@MrGoesBoom that dust can be sprinkled into a gen 3 synth and boom varian back (im sure those gnomes can figure out fallout's tech)
Could we get a video on the Jinyu? I'm sure it would be rather short, but I find them to be very interesting.
Hey next lore can it be the volduna if you havent already (will be looking now lol) because i dont really know where they came from and such but keep going with the lore! loving it
That would be awesome. I would also like to know the timeline for Nazmir as well. How long ago was Vul’dun a thriving part of the Zandalari empire and how did the whole nation work with the three temples. How soon did Nazmir become a swamp? Was it the cataclysm that made it that way?
For a goblin Gazlowe is a pretty generous guy.
i love this so much it good lore
During WLK wasn't there pretty much this exact storyline, just as a small series of quests instead of a whole dungeon?
Prince Erazmin also voiced Robin in Teen Titans. Now that's a good fitting voice.
Is it only 1 entry per person? Cause I have 2 tmogs that i really love.
I wonder what new race Grizzy and Saffy would make? ..Hmmmmm
Gobgnome?
Gnoblins?
i love the video, but could you link the comics in the description perchance?
Forgot to put it in the description. worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/story/comic/mechagon
Funny thing though, Gazlowe's cartel was never integrated in the Horde.
Gazlowe has always been independent of the Horde and his port has both Horde and Alliance people at it. Of course, since he help Baine regain ThunderBluff from the GrimTotem when his father Carine was murdered (at a discounted price and he didn't even fully except all the gold offered him) , and Baine is now free from Sylvanas I would suspect Sylvanas will target Gazlowe to keep him from helping Baine again.
My best guess is he was recruited to help with the garrison in Draenor and then just stayed on, but I do indeed believe it has never been explained.
@Mr. [Bones] I disagree. The Alliance may consider them part of the Horde, but the question is whether or not Gazlowe considers it that way. We define ourselves, not others. If the Alliance wants to needlessly create yet another enemy, it just goes to show how stupid they are.
great video
As a horde player I thought Gazlowe really is a great goblin how he is displayed here.
Seeing the Alliance side makes you think... Gazlowe actually shows more respect for his workers than the Tinkmaster. I mean, its obvious that Gallywix is a much more greedy character, but Overspak is... well just a selfish prick.
I'd take Gazlowe over him any time of the day, at least it seems he is true to his word. That he seems to be a rather nice goblin was also seen in the short questline in Tanaris a few weeks ago.
It's funny, I read some comment somewhere about how evil the goblins are for coming to the site and killing all the gnomes....yet if the situation was reversed and the goblins got there first the gnomes would likely have done the same thing. Gazlowe at least has respect for his workers ( cause hey, happy worker is a productive worker. treat em well and they'll bend over backwards for you )
@@MrGoesBoom I would say that the Gnomes, and the Alliance as a whole do have a bit of a racism problem anyway.
If you look at the situation: the first thing the Gnome does is call Gazlowe a simpleton that could never understand the tech. Wasn't the most mean spirited thing, but still... its not the first and surely not the last time that the alliance goes in insult first.
I mean, not that the horde are virtues or anything, oh no... but its not like the alliance didn't kill goblins who where just mining Azerite in Silithus either... it's kind of a grey area whats okay at times. The purge of Dalaran is also a hard subject. To what point was that ok, did it, or where did it start to not be ok?
Not to say everything is fair game, but let's be honest: killing anything from the other faction is accepted on both sides, pretty much. It "just" depends how. Besides, currently the factions are at war. So attacking is rather normal, I'd say.
Remember Varian at the end of pandaria, he never asked to not kill alliance soldiers. He just wanted from Vol'jin to uphold honor.
was this in a comic book? where did those images come from? O.O
worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/story/comic/mechagon
Mechagon has a nice introduction on both the Alliance and the Horde, but then it becomes a grind. At least there's some variety with the quests.
Its not very warm if you get AC Nobbel XD AC turns every summer into a winter
Brothers and Sisters of No Manatee... :P
Hej Nobbel, can u explain then and how Gazlow joins the Horde? Did he left his Cartell or split? is storywise ratchet now a horde city?
As far as i can recall, he is a member of the Steamwheddle Cartel. In WC3 TFT Gazlowe was first introduced as a quest giver, hired by Thrall to build Orgrimmar with Rexxar helping him. With this fortune he later build Ratchet and set it up as a neutral port, while still remaining contact with the Horde. During WoD, Thrall hired him again to oversee the Garrison construction. It is never really explained, but i think at this point, Gazlowe realised, that while remaining neutral does not limit him to one client, the Horde is still his best bet. I think he is still neutral, but is more leaning towards the Horde. There is a follower mission, where the Horde uses Ratchet to transport supplies/ the Alliance tries to sabotage it, but if i recall correct Ratchet is expliciatly stated to be neutral.
Gazlowe is the boss of the neutral Steamwheedle Cartel. According to one of the Alliance mission table missions they haven't officially taken a side in the war but have been secretly supplying the Horde war effort.
@@TheMichael769 thats what we lnow. But now he obviously in the horde. Not more secretly. U see the gnome also response to that he is a full member of the horde
@@bakuryukenji3802 Seems more like Gazlower hasn't fully convinced his cartel that a full alliance with the horde is better for profits and hes helping his friends anyway.
He and his crew were hired by the Horde goblins. That's why they're wearing Bilgewater tabards. But Gazlowe is neutral and part of the Steamwheedle Cartel.
16:20 Uraka Windrunner ?????????
Lol I've got glasses, gues I need better ones
@@Nobbel87 yea i get you but didnt you think about it when you read windrunner , like why is there a windrunner named uraka
Remember when all Goblins were good for was zeppelins, deathwing spa treatments, and blowing themselves up?
I would love it if you could do the full story of Sapphy and grizzik
Can Goblins be Mechanized by Dr. Gnomenik too? I hope so! Would love to see new Clockwreck Goblins in WoW.
Would like goblins to create their ownvariety, something like steamfunk were the mechanical parts look more hodge podge like how goblin tech looks less refined then goblin stuff
@Kyle Ellis When he said the King wanted to turn all the titan forged back into their original forms, I thought he was gonna go full Robotnik on all the other races.
Goblins were accidentally created by Mimiron but they're not titanforged.
M L What about the Orcs? They’re Titan Forged, and so are Ogres! Mechaogres!
Any race can be mechanized. It's King Mechagon who is determining who is worthy. And he only views Gnomes as worthy.
23:03 nice mount, What's her name?
Check out those rampaging bots on the shore we..
-BOTS ON THE SHORE!?!? LET'S BOMB EM!
if anyone notes in the clip that the Gnome has 't figured out how the security work, only the goblin has that knowledge. the other thing about the Alliance short animation, it looks like Gnome behaving more selfishly then the goblin, which is a shock.
nixxiom will have a serious anurism
I love how Mechagon is very G&G (not GvG, cooperation is required by the Prince) :)
So that’s how blizz treats gnomes and goblins? As gimmicky little dbags
Tinkmaster Overspark’s VA is great!
I bet there are some people having rage induced mental breakdowns from Nobbel saying “titanforge” over and over again.
Now we wait for the mechanic class to drop.
A ranged/melee dd and heal.
That works with gadgets like healing syringes and attack towers.
Would work for dwarfes, gnomes, goblins, dreanai, Belves, and orcs
Alliance: tinkologist / photonist
Horde: warforger / arcanesmith
It's a good patch, so far.
Mechagon = Where the Borg meets Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers
That Mechagon mentality/plan makes me think of the Cybermen from Doctor Who.
Xavier St-Pierre-Trahan me to, I loved it :D
if classes and specs weren't so bloody boring; i might've actually jumped into the game.
looks like some interesting stuff
Wonder if mecha-gnomes will be an allied race, would be cool.
Man I think Gazlow is the only good thing about the horde that I've been missing out on but damn do I prefer him over overspark
I wonder how different the mechagnome timeline is if you are one becuase surely you should have no problems with the king trying to kill you
How strong is Gazlowe to lift a gnome?
He started as a goblin sapper (his depiction in WC3) So i guess he is no stranger to hard work.^^
Goblins are surprisingly strong in lore. A male goblin is about as strong as a dwarf.
Is the mechagnome prince Robin??
Overspark was such a dick to his fellow gnomes. Gazlowe was a waaay better team leader than him. Hope he gets to be the next Trade Prince after Gallywix.
Gazlowe for Trade Prince 2019
Is that Robin from teen titans?
A tease for a future expansion in 2033?
"Helloooo Everyoneee" gets me everytime☺️

4:07 removing the curse of flesh from everything
What about dreanei ? Nightborne ? The tauran ?
I thought Overspark was close to dying in 8.1.5? How was he ressurected? (Horde player asking)
His escape pod had him trapped and things weren't looking good but the next patch, adding mechagnomes as an allied race, will show what happens next
@@Nobbel87 But the events of Mechagon are happening after the Dazar'alor raid, right? So we'll see what happened to him in a flashback? I guess it'll be kind of anti climatic when he survives in the allied race quest then :P
@@themrfj The events do happen after Dazar, in that time gelbin is stuck and chilling in his pod. 8.2 we go out and recruit the mechagnomes as an allied race and deal with gelbin.
You should've played this as a Gnome ;)
But awesome work!
Wonder what would happen if the mecha gnomes got themselves a giant tree of their own.
A Mekdrassil? How would it look like? Would it have spare parts instead of apples? And it would have to be greatly insulated, or it would be inhabitable due to perpetual lightning strikes.
Haven't done much for the gnomes and I'm ok with that. But I wrapped the horde side story even got to listen to some of Nzoth rambling on with his destiny shit talk.
For some reason I get a Cyberman vibe.
2:06 quadcopter drone ?
wait the Alliance now got jets??
Those planes? since wtolk
Hello obi wan
I always thought Gila wanted Overspark. She's always "wet" for him.
1000th like...yay me!
YOU THINK I WOULDN'T RECOGNIZE STETMANN'S VOICE?!
Who?
YES thank the Light I wasn’t the only one that noticed!
So the next xpac will be about gnomes and goblins :D and new tinker class confirmed :D
This doesn't even work as a joke, unless you're parodying people hyping races and classes with every little potential tease? Like "omg Highmaul raid we're finally getting ogres and a third faction and a new warchief and..."
@@RileyRivalle2 No, i just would like to see modern wow with new tech and tinker class.
Well then, I'm sad to say there's nothing in this that suggest the next expansion will be about gnomes and goblins, or that a tinker class is confirmed.
The comic was great, but it would have been better if it hadn't been so obvious that Mechagon's head was just copy-pasted from shots of the game model.
His ingame model was changed and the artist didn't have time to redraw the comic.
Yikes Overspark is arrogant.
As many gnomes, though considering their inventive brilliance it is more or less justified. And since gnomish society is a complete meritocracy, i think Overspark has some inventive deeds to back up his Tinkmaster title.
@@aureliodeprimus8018 Considering his self-aggrandizing and lack of recognition of others it's likely he just rides on the coattails of others and takes credit for their work. Like a college professor taking credit for lab work done by their undergrad students.
@@MrGoesBoom When i think of Overspark, i think of the flavor text of his HS card. (translated from german) "Tinkmaster Overspark almost lost his tinkers license during the great squirrel plage of Ironforge."^^
1st comment!! Love your vids!
the prince sounds like a robin from the teen titans became mechinized.
I think its the same voice actor
@@iknownothinguknow i mean... it is the same voice actor but i wasnt expecting him to use such a familiar voice for it.
@@darcraven01 same didnt change his voice at all.
I still don't get why the titans chose gnomes to keep their huge machines running. Those tiny creatures can't reach any titan structure part on their own, i mean any titan cogwheel is 10 times the size of any gnome. makes no sense imo
I think they were actually made by the keepers after the titans left, specifically to care for and invent small and intricate machinery. Also, they may have reduced in size somewhat as a result of the curse of flesh.
The funny thing about titan machinery is, that the consoles themselves seem tiny in comparison to the whole mechanism. Also one of the biggest problems in machinery is that bigger cogs tend to be much slower, than tiny cogs. Basically to run a fast and efficient machine, you need smaller components. Another thing is that you have a much harder time doing essential repairs and maintenance things, if you are big-handed, since your honing skills are hampered by it. Basically gnomes are essential to keep the fine, intricate parts of the machinery running, while the giants and earthen can maintain the bigger parts.
