Sylvanas wanted his name to be forgotten but we will never forget the name of the most iconic character of WoW!
TRUE
Forever
Arthas is one of the most iconic character in gaming
THE MOST ICONIC CHARACTER OF GAMES
Yes, we will never forget the name Nat Pagle.
Arthas: the villain that all the people wanted to kill but no one wished to see dead.
this is actually pretty deep in a way... you are so right
@@LorienzoDeGarcia redemption doesn't have any meaning after killing and damning everything ...imagine arthas being reedemned and then everybody just hating on him
@@LorienzoDeGarcia they set the bar so high with the lich King and arthas and brilliant back ground story ..it's just impossible to have that level of consistency in type of characters and story line
@@sowrabhkarkala1232 The most powerful (and one of the hardest) of life lessions is forgivness...and while Arthas did allow himself to be lured into Lich King's/Ner'zhuls trap, by being blinded with revenge, he did not kill his father or countrymen......He had lost his soul to Frostmourne/Lich King at that point
Anyhow my personal preference is (what ive been saying for YEARS now) is to have Warcraft's storyline rebooted from WC3:TFT if there ever would be Warcraft IV and possibly rewrite redemption arc for Arthas. I know none of that is likely to happen, and it wont, but thats just my dream
maybe he'll come back as a spirit in the shadowlands
"...but the truest victory my son, is stirring the hearts of your people..."
The fact that we're all here paying tribute to Arthas is proof that he still won.
Agreed
One and only true Lich King
@@CBRN-115 I guess he will return in the shadow land

How do you kill that which has no life?!
alt and F4
In my humble opinion, Arthas shall forever be one of gaming’s greatest villains. His rise, his fall, and his tragic nature essentially make him to Warcraft what Darth Vader was to Star Wars.
Except Arthas never redeemed himself, wich is the most important part of Vader's arc.
@@maartensmitswork Also Arthas' legacy was never ruined by later releases in the franchise...
...oh wait.
@@linkofvev Shadowlands or Reforged?
....or both?
Would have sykvannas without him or Illidan, like he was the catalyst for so much
Agreed. Like Macbeth too. But Arthas didn’t have Luke to redeem him.

You too,Merry Christmas
Happy new years now!!
You will be remembered forever in our hearts my king.
Maybe the true King is Gamers, he passed his will onto all of us!
Yes. This is the Lich King we all remember.
The problem wasn't the identity of the Lich King. The problem is writers for Blizz spent too much time fapping to Sylvanas fan fiction.
@@thenson1Halo Yes, that is what i meant.

You forgot Sylvanas almost killed Arthas with a poison arrow in warcraft3?
@@lorenzocora9529 I for one didn't forget. Which is why I am aware of the fact that he was ambushed and had not even merged with the Lich King yet. It was during the time that the Lich King's powers were weakened.. the same time that Sylvanas and others were freed from his control.

Watching this you realise how far and deep Blizzard have fallen. Nine years and this is still way more epic and chilling than Shadowlands.

Battle of Azeroth has to be the best cinematic for WoW, this is a second close one tho
With: "A Night to Remember" Launch Cinematic
My dudes, don't disrespect the King.. this is probably the most well put together cinematic out there to this date!
Wod, Cata are the same lvl
This is where World of Warcraft peaked.
Arthas the reason i played wow. I will forever be his fanboy
WoTLK peaked because TBC was a great expansion, So people thought the sequel will be better, WoTLK is more or less the same as TBC but butchered the lore. Then people got disappointed and didn't bother with Cata so it went downhill.
@@hadji9354 What? They're not talking about player count here. This is simply a point in WoW full of nostalgia, where the community was at its high peak, it was the end of the original storyline with Arthas, the most beloved villain in WoW. Ofc many people are gonna consider this time the peak of WoW. WOTLK 3.3.5 is the end of an era.

me too.
same goes for the WotLK announcement trailer, and the "fall of the lich king" patch promo vid. I doubt WoW will ever have another villain that is as completely badass and epic as the Lich King. My first kill on him is my all time favorite moment in all my years of gaming.
***** Not an animated one, they are making a live one
***** its not animated its a live movie with real hollywood dudes actin as king lane, blackhand ..ect www.imdb.com/title/tt0803096/?ref_=nv_sr_1
The reason Wrath of the Lich king is remembered by many as the best expansion, regardless of gameplay, is because this one had the best villain. Specifically, the most personal villain. Illidan was always shady even before his corruption, Deathwing has been been a menacing figure but mostly in the background, no one liked Garrosh from the beginning, the orc leaders were known and liked but bringing them back felt odd, and the Burning Legion and Sargeras have always been a nebulous evil that no one really understood. But Arthas. We not only watched but we experienced him as a young paladin, madly in love with his childhood friend and following his longtime mentor, doing everything in his power to protect his homeland and the people he loved. Trying so hard to do what he believed was good, but facing moral conflicts and being unsure of what to do, desperately trying to save the most amount of people as he could at any cost, before finally giving in and betraying all he defended. We experienced him undoing everything he and his kingdom had built, callously allying with his greatest enemies, yet distantly feeling remorse and shame for what he had done, before finally destroying that part of him and becoming one of the greatest evils yet seen. Other villains may have technically been more powerful or more evil or more dangerous, but the Lich King is the best Warcraft villain because we were closest to him and felt the effects of what he did stronger than any other villain's. We didn't face him because a quest giver told us to, we faced him because we wanted to. Because we had to.
AMEN!
well said friend, +1
Indeed, Arthas is the most popular character in Warcraft Universe, without a doubt. The reasons for his popularity is that he played a major role in Warcraft 3 series, his backgroud was well developed, he had a more "logical" goal, being something like victim and villain at the same time (way better than any of the others major antagonists). That said, its not hard to see that he was greatly inspired in who probably is the greatest character of modern culture: Darth Vader. Also, based on a great thought: "He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster".
u gave me goose bumps, so true
@@henriqueklein5403 oh yeah Arthas is totally Fantasy Anakin, but I mean it works

@ScarfedRed REALLYYY I DID'T KNOW WTF LICH KING SO STRONG
It’s 2024 and still the best WoW cinematic and expansion ever. So many great memories
RIP Earl Boen. V.A for Terenas Menethil and the introduction cinematics for the races of world of warcraft.
Strange, The Lich King standing up from his throne filled me with more fear and anticipation than Sargeras, Kiljaden, any of the old gods, or any other antagonist. Nothing really compares to the march of death itself against all living things. Arthas was the best villain. Hands down.
It's because we all experienced his fall through the campaign of Warcraft 3 that made him such a strong character. We saw him arrive too late at Strahnbrad, purge the city of Stratholme, betray his men in Northrend, turn Sylvanas into a banshee as a Death Knight, and finally take up the mantle of the Lich King. We were all there, and I think for many (at least for me) Warcraft 3 and the tragic story of Arthas was the first time I played a Blizzard game and experienced it as the true masterpiece it was.
After that, returning to Northrend not just as an 'observer' but as an actual character in that world, is why Wrath of the Lich King will forever be my personal favorite expansion, by a clear mile. I recognize its downsides, but being there in Northrend, being able to meet the Lich King again and his sheer presence throughout the leveling experience was just majestic.
Arthas was indeed the best villain this game has ever known. *bumps fist*
@@robinvermeersch6349 this. Everything you just said and more.
Although. I submit Illidan as a close second.
@@robinvermeersch6349 Well said my friend. Warcraft 3 was my first Blizzard game, too. It set my expectation very high! I remembered seeing the Human campaign ending cinematic and my jaw dropped. It was a wonderful experience. I played the Frozen Throne immediately and pray for the next chapter of Arthas saga, until WotLK was released. I remembered participating in ICC for finally seeing the end of Arthas saga, without caring for drops, LOL.
Arthas, Illidan, Jaina, Thrall, Sylvanas, Cairne are my favorite characters in WoW, introduced by Warcraft 3. I think that my only favorite character which I know purely from WoW is Varian. Considering how heartbroken I was in Legion, I think Blizzard did Varian's story well, despite WoW limitation in delivering story and lore. If only Blizzard do justice for other characters...
Nothing compares to gathering your guild and friends to take on Icecrown Citadel. Braving all the monstrosities that Arthas has risen up to protect his fortress. Only to get to Arthas himself and get absolutely crushed by his power over and over. That is a feeling I will never forget for gaming. It was truly memorable and a great accomplishment after Arthas himself was taken down once and for all.
Kiljaeden was once the most powerful being in the entire warcraft universe tho.
KJ could end the lich king so fast. lol.
It's honestly kind of incredible how well this holds up.
EIGHT YEARS. This was made EIGHT YEARS ago. And it's still one of the greatest cinematics ever made.
The same with warcraft 3 cinrmatics, almost 18 years ago and better than most of today.
It’s actually even older than that , it’s over 11 years old now 😱
It will always be
Lich king has the best you can ask for...
And more
This is best of all time !
More like ten years ago
12 years later still gives me chills
No pun intended. Best expansion from content to lore.
Back then: Arthas is the Lich King
Shadowland finale: Arthas? Lich King? Oh, did you mean that forgotten wisp over there?
"No king rules forever"
How bittersweet this words taste if you look at Blizzard these days.
Who knew those words were so foreshadowing.
Or Bethesda... 😭
:(
So true
they were never a king I think, Blizzard surely was
When World of Warcraft had professional writers, not fanfic makers.
Yeah when the characters had actual depth.
Wotlk was the last great expansion of wow
@@hazzmati I enjoyed WoW until WotLK ended. Tried Cata, but then it never clicked to me. So I quit.
Classic, TBC, and WOTLK; the trinity of WoW.
As a fanfic writer, I can tell the current Blizzard writters are even worse than me, though it may not be their fault.
Agreed lnao, they just don't care anymore.
One of the most epic character of videogames history.
This is where Blizzard was in its prime, completely untouchable in all aspects. But no king rules forever....
This was made 12 years ago and still looks like it could be made today.
***** when arthas puts his hand on the ground and moves the snow it does look a little computer made, but everything else looks amazing

This is by far the greatest expansion and villain because his story was told long before wow . Watching his character go from good to evil and then having him return in wow was what made it so epic
Almost 13 years have passed, but still, I'm here by the call of the Lich King!
This is storyline the WoW movie should have used
Arthas is the single best character to ever grace an MMO and he isn't even my favorite character.
They did the origin story already, who knows, we may get to see Arthas on the big screen yet
@@austingole4861 as much as we hope so, it’s not likely since the first movie flopped and now video game based movies are becoming memes since they kept messing it up..
the whole purpose of the movie was to introduce characters and lore (we got to see baby Thrall, btw), but that was for the first game, Warcraft 1...IF they'll ever make Warcraft 2, based on the second game, it will be even better...and the third movie...well the third movie would've been this (as in, the best).
I’d rather have them make animated series for grown ups. Live action movies filled with fantasy creatures are very expensive and take so much time to make. I’m not saying digital art is not expensive, but I think it would be better.
I really liked Warcraft movie but it somehow felt empty, as if something was missing, only when they started inteoducing these new animated cinematics I’ve realised how much more emotion and motion is possible in animation.

Love the tragic poetry showcased here. Almost every line is beautiful, but pained. "The very forests of Lordaeron whispered the name... Arthas." Those forests are plagued now because of him.
"My child, I watched with pride as you grew into a weapon... of righteousness." As he draws one of the most evil weapons to ever exist, the weapon that turned his son into a weapon of death and evil.
Then finally, "Remember, our line has always ruled with wisdom and strength, and I know you will show restraint when exercising your great power." Arthas has awakened now, and his goals are anything but restrained: the total subjugation and extermination of the living.
Simply excellent.
@Merengues PerSempre It really is sad, so many developers I used to love have fallen from grace. Blizzard/act, Bethesda, BioWare, CD proj. Part of me just wants another gaming crash to wipe the slate clean.
The fact that Arthas actually *still* restrained himself even after his corruption adds more feel to this. Like yeh sure Arthas chose the path of power, but that was because he saw no other way. And as *the* Lich King, he controlled his powers to a minimum, because if it was up to only the Lich King, Azeroth would fall. But Arthas, who has now finished all his quest in life, reflects on his mistakes and regrets them. But the only way he can make it right is to make sure it doesn't happen again despite being in the control of the Lich King

Mobilone Well, frankly speaking story of Warcraft 3 (campaign of Humans and Undead) Warcraft 3 TFT and Wrath of the Lich King no doubt are the best parts of all Warcraft universe and will be most desired to become movies.
True king will never be forgotten
They did him dirty!
We NEED at least two more warcraft movies:
Fall of a prince
Rise of a king
Wish they'd make them in their signature cinematic style
what if the warcraft is called warcraft the fall of prince?
@@KpopDreamsss NOIECE btw warcraft already fall :')
Yea Rise of the Banshee
Anyone else still think this is the best WoW cinematic ever?
Everyone still think that
This is the best video game trailer ever. Not just for WoW.
@@laidtorest387 this is the best trailer overall, not just video games.
@@paulanderson5704 Blizzard always had great cinematics and trailers.
@@paulanderson5704 this is the best thing overall, not just in trailers
No matter what Blizzard wants, Arthas shall be KING.
Still one of the best cinematic of all times.
Now THIS is a Lich King
Should be “this is THE lich king”
Arthas / The Lich King will always be the greatest storyline in World of Warcraft.
The Whole Warcraft 3 plot is probably the best game plot in history. Arthas, Ilidan, Thrall, Grommash, etc.
Agreed, Warcraft 3 is such an incredible story
I agree. Warcraft 3's story was pretty flawless, from the redemption of the Orcs to the turning of Arthas.
As if you ve seen all of the gaming
The Nameless One begs to differ.
It's already 2024, and the chills that this sends into every people's hearts and minds is still unmatched.
imagine Arthas being killed by a lvl15 rogue
that's what the GoT writers thought was a fitting end for their version of the Lich King
smh
Btw I also like how Night King wears armor but some dagger still penetrates it like butter
@@jozefkucera8402 well it wasn't really some dagger, it was probably the most dangerous weapon in exsistance as far as the NK is concered
Nope the lich king was killed by Gary that works at McDonald's and his bunch of degenerate buddies
Ehrm, not to burst your bubble, but Lich King is actually Blizzard’s version of Night’s King. Blizz devs got inspired by ASOIAF, they stated it number of times. You have fuckloads of references to it all over wow.
snokey But the night king does not exist in ASOIAF, only in the show
Anyone here after Shadowlands trailer trying to remind themselves glory days?
Yep
@Dumbo 23 my exact words
This right here.
The current writing team is on crack.
@@100HourSave No they're not you guys are just mad that your favourite lich king is no longer. The truth is that sylvanas is really strong because the deal with the "jailer" from shadowlands everyone that died gave her and the jailer more and more power and since there was a global war on Azeroth she has a lot of power also Bolvar was not the same as Arthas Arthas was one of the most swordsmen in Azeroth defeated Uther,Illidan a also had Frostmourne which gave him more power Bolvar was just there to controll the scourge
long live the king you will neve be forgotten
They disenchanted him
Remember Arthas Menethil FOREVER !
When WoW reached its peak
Legion will be good
+PC Warlock legion has to be good.
nice joke, try harder
I agree!
this expantion tied the last lose ends of WIII. after this all they´re doing exploiting the game
