Shit I never realised the patreon was that small a fee! You will have my patrionage within the end of the month! Love your stuff!
The Death of Ysera is probably the most heartwrenching part of the entire franchise, especially as a druid main. If anything came from Shadowlands, her return is the greatest thing. Her and Nozdormu are by far the most interesting of the aspects, and I would love to see more of both her and the dream itself.
Ysera's death still hits me right in the feels. I never knew I could be so emotionally invested in a game character.
My heart character is a druid, and Ysera's death was heartwrenching. It was the only time I noped out of the game, and I still don't replay that part whenever I level in the zone.
I always sort of Roleplayed my druid main and I was seriously considering to play Ardeweald just because of her...and to lesser extend Bwomsandi...
But I was extremely happy that Winter Qeen saved her, tough my opinion on Shadowlands was more than dubious
Agree. That was the one character in warcraft that I really mourned the loss of when she dies in legion
@@Daralyndk So much felt iffy and just half-hearted in Shadowlands. I had sort of hopes in the beginning, but it all just vanished while levelling. Now I can't wait to see how the story unfolds, it's so much more fun to play. And I loved seeing the green dragons again!
Personally, Ysera's lore is the most tear jerking stuff in Warcraft. The Legion storyline was the one that brought me to absolute waterfall of tears. It was an amazing experience to play through. She's the best, alongside Alexstrasza off course 💚❤️
Legion seemed like we couldn’t catch a break. Loss after loss. Varian, Tyrion, Vol’Jin. When Ysera died and Elune saved her, it felt like even though we were losing, there was still a glimmer of hope.
Fortunately, she's back now!
Naw, Blanchy's story is by far more tear jerking.
There was a bug than made it so the quest where you have the tear of Elune in your inventory doesn't remove the item when you turn it in. I have it to this day. Blizzard can pry it out of my cold dead hands. That bag space belongs to Ysera.
Most characters are chock full of tragedy in warcraft. Ysera's lore is one of the less tragic ones.
But yeah, Legion was really really good vibes and her death certainly hit home
Ysera's story arc is one of life, death, grief, and renewal. Her cut scenes were always epic
As a druid Main, i honestly cried about her death in Legion… an yet again cried the Moment i found out its ysera inside that wild Seed in ardenweald.
And … again while the Winter Queen resurrected her… so Mandy emotions 😅
I actually cried in real life when she was corrupted by Zavius. The scene where Tyrande cleanses her soul and that beautiful music plays gets me every time. When she was renewed in Ardenweald I was so happy and cried again lol (good tears this time.) This story of Ysera was amazing. Thank you for putting it all together. I'm pretty sure I'll cry if/when Ysera gets to fly the skies of Azeroth again.

Same. I didn't know WoW could give me joyous tears til then.
Truly some of your guys’ best work in history.
I still think Emerald dream is one of the most interesting parts of warcraft lore. Primordial azeroth living without human intervention, source of power all druids. I love the mysteries behind it. Is it a dream of azeroth itself, dimension created by freya, or something even more anctient . I hope they never fully explain what the Emerald dream really is.
I'll even take an "all those things, and more" explanation for the Emerald Dream.
It's wild how central to everything she always has been, I just hope they do her right if and when they bring her back through that big Emerald portal in the plains.
I just might resub if they do things right
Bellular… I know you say you make these at a loss but man - these are amazing!!! Movie quality, engaging storytelling narration, and just pure perfection in gathering all the lore… I’ve been playing this game for 14 years and always learn from your videos… please don’t ever stop!! You and your team are amazing!!! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
It's a 15 minute youtube clip with all background cinematics and music already "provided" to them by Blizzard, any fan could make it but maybe not as well produced, but why would they openly say they make it at a loss? It makes zero sense and also irks me
@@Cloud-dq1mr I disagree… yes some of the footage is from the game, but you can tell some was created by them. Also, it still requires TONS of research to ensure the details are correct, time to write scripts and keep it concise, thought to put it together, and editing is ridiculously harder than one would think if you’ve never done it before. Personally, I’m glad his team does what they do, but we are all welcome to our own opinions. 🤟🏽
You guys are at a totally new level with these. Stellar work!
Love the video, she's my favorite dragon 🌱💚🌱 (with how the story is moving forward so far in dragonflight, I hope Merithra gets a new look soon. Everyone else has gotten their glow ups)
why i play a druid due to their connection
Having been a Druid main for so long, I generally prefer not to be a murder hobo. But when the green flight is under threat, it’s time to rip and tear.
Another incredible video. I really hope these videos get the love they deserve.
Damn, Bellular's story telling voice is powerful. Had me choking up a little.
These are absolutely some of The best Contant I have seen from you absolutely can keep this up. We love it.
I know its not as profitable but I really appreciate the long lore videos! Hope to see more
Makes me love playing Druid so much more. Vital to everything in the World of Warcraft.
It's so hard dodging spoilers with the renown gating. I want to be able to play through the context before watching the cutscenes, but they really are plastered everywhere while I sit here at Valdraken renown level 9
How is it hard? Just don't watch DF vids until you are done with the main story, problem solved
This is such a High quality production. I cannot Thank you enough. I wish I could afford a higher tier in your patron.
I love these Lore vids so much! Thanks for the hard work!
Dude thank you for putting together a phenomenal video on one of my favorite characters in this game and one that always inspires some of my best characters.
Such a high quality video, fucking love the work you guys have been doing
Malygos wasn't put in a coma he went mad. Seeing his flight nearly driven extinct by his best friend drove him insane for ten thousand years.
Some of the best content you make, and some of the fewest views! :( Lovin' the series, so thankfully you're able to do so stuff like this! :D
The core real problem with shadowlands and it's lack of consequence is that the concept of death in wow now has to be ignored or forcefully enforced because death feels like a minor inconvenience now that it was "tamed"
Yea its like wow, you were a warrior all your life? Guess what you get to keep being for all eternity after you die! thank you afterlife very cool.
I mean in vanilla when I died I just ran back to my body and boom, back to life
That’s only if shadowlands is the ONLY afterlife. And we know from multiple stories that there are other places a soul can go.
I personally am treating most of Shadowlands story as a fever dream as we all recovered from fighting nzoth.
I hate how there was no explanation to the transition between Shadowlands and Dragonflight. How did we get back to Azeroth? Just took an ordinary portal from a basic mage? Even though it's a travel to a different realm instead of just a location? And when we got back, there was no talk about what happened while we were gone?
@@ChinnuWoW and how you end in different timeline in Ashran? Yes as a roleplayer I am too annoyed by certain mechanics, tough they are necessary for the game itself
Awesome content! Great work Bellular and Crew!
Amazing work guys!
Super cool that they are adding the emerald dream as a patch zone in dragobflight. I'm sure it will do it so much justice as a daily zone...
Ysera was always my favorite and it was her and music in WotLK Emerald Dragonshrine that made me a long life druid player.
This deserves more views
The story of Ysera and her death was tearjerking, I cried every time I played through it
Great video! Awesome work from you and your team. Keep it up!
Amazing work.. just speechless...
i think we will see the seed tyrande receive at shadowlands be blessed from aspect at the end or in the ongoing story of this expasion
A bloody brilliant series!!!
Simply brilliant . Thank you guys for this.
Okay, I have this conversation a LOT with my friend. I do not really care for Night Elf lore, or that of the Night Elven areas of the game. Ysera was a character I did not really pay much mind to, I always revered her of course, being that I adore the dragon lore. So, when I played through Val'sharah in Legion, and I watched Ysera die, I was absolutely befuddled by the deluge of tears I cried. It still lingers today, whenever I hear Nightsong, especially when the song reaches the harmonic calling of Nordrassil, I tear up immensely.
I figure it stings so much because Ysera, though she can be fierce, is a wholly peace seeking creature. I am writing this before I watch the video, because I am sure that Nightsong will play, and it's very tough to type with tears in my eyes.
I've mailed a druid for years it was the saddest part of wow to see all these corrupted friends in legion, then to see them again in shadowlands. A few things I nvr understand thx for the video. It cleared up alot
Amazing work! Love these lore bits!
Well done Michael - bought back the 'pain' of Ysera's death all over again! I DO hope to see her in Azeroth again!
Thank you. This is beautiful.
Great stuff as usual. Blizz should hire you as a contract employee to do all their lore vids.
The shadowlands chapter of the lore is the biggest nightmare.
the end of Ysera and what she embodies and becomes is very god like. Love the Dragon lore of Warcraft. Its why Im enjoying Dragonflight so much.
These videos have been fantastic
I really like these game-footage montages. But it's really funny how everyone appears with their current HD models and then there's Ysera with that cataclysmic;) 144p model xD
Always bothered me that Ardenweld wasn't winter like at all.
I really enjoyed this video, beautifully done 😊
How do you make these videos? Love your style of videos
Ysera has been my favorite since reading Day of the Dragon and seeing her in WotLK. I hated what they did with her in Legion-the setup for her death was so sloppy and hamfisted, when experienced firsthand in game. The Ardenweald arc where you bring her back was the single best part of Shadowlands.
Hey. did you see the cave in the emerald dream during the dragonflight campaign...the nightmare leftovers is replaced with a patch of flowers.
Me on the edge of my seat waiting for a video on the queen herself.
You guys are both evil and geniuses to leave her for last 💕😭💕💕
This is so cool! Love it! Ty 😊
The ending song is amazing! What's the name?
it's part of lament of the kaldorei/nightsong
This was amazing great job guys. Also, Ysera 💚💚💚
As winter queen use her power to ressurect Ysera, She also gave her power to Ysera so this is why others saying you looks different , touch by death you know She said now i am less connected to Dreamland , I think her role will change passive to strong active role maybe_=? I hope, i want to see her use powers more ofthen.
Awesome work team Bellular!
I hope this time around we will get an emerald dream patch, blizz just keeps teasing it over and over again
We already had that, in Legion, its a zone AND a raid
@@jtowensbyiii6018 it was mainly about the nightnare and the dream zones are small instanced areas with next to nothing to do in them
Well done
Thanks for the video
Great Stuff!
What a timeline she never had to experience WOD 10/10
These are really good
Awesome job!
I feel sorry for you having to recount to Shidowlands story. It was going great until that point, but for the rest of the video I couldn't only hear "Oh noh da chucler took da sigil" in my head 😀
I love this series
theres not enough Like button for this series.
I think Ysera is a prime example that blizz’s direction of constantly killing off key and important characters is always a terrible idea (at least the way blizz do it).
Yes, we know Ysera is back but this was rumoured to not always be the direction where it was going to go.
She is such a great character and we need her and the others securely in the story/lore
no, there is nothing wrong with killing off important characters, just don't do it casually and then decide to undo it.
@@urazz7739 Oh, so basically WoW the past 10 years?
these are so good
Amazing, it seems I'm missing key cinematics due to addons.
I don't really say it often, because in the past you made some questionable videos, mostly because of the vibe you proposed with your videos, but this time you really nailed it. Great video , really good job to you and your team. Keep it up.
Ok zoomer.
Not the vibes!
loved it omg !!
Man with how many views this video has it’s like count is criminal.
This video is so good
And if they do revive her then that basicly means nothing really matters and if somebody dies thats pointless sins they will just revive them later. Making everything completley irelevant.
Never cried over a game before, but may have shed a tear when Ysera died. Not cool, blizzard. Not cool..
I do wonder what yseras role will be on DF seeing as malfurion gave up his life for her. She has a role to play yet.
More please 🥺
I hate the winter queen as a character. She's as weak in terms of character and personality as the jailer, but now I know that she demanded malfurion to stay in ardenweald because she was salty that her sister didn't help her fight against the jailer. Lovely.
👏🏼 thank you 💚
I don't understand why anyone uses Nightsong for anything other then Night Elves. It is, after all, only a Night Elven song
I loved Ysera’s story until about 30 mins ago when I found out they’re trading her for Malfurion. Quit fcking with us, blizzard, if you’re gonna kill a character make them STAY DEAD! It reads like a 6th grade RP
Stellar series
I mean, we know people from the Shadowlands can make it into other realms, so definitely possible. Big question is, will she still be linked to Ardenweald though even if she enters Azeroth again.
i appreciate the less frantic talking style in this one
glad there are no sensible consequences, and all can be arbitrarily retconned, really rewards investing into the story and lore
yay its nature/druid mom! (im kinda partial lol)
Hi, you seem to know alot about this game, my son who is 9 plays all the time, he's always talking about players called Whaz and Swapzy, these people seem to be his absolute hero's, have you any suggestions how I could get one of these players to sign a WOW poster for him, It would make his christmas. :)
We want Ysera back :D
What's the outro song?
Official lore claims that the corruption started when the Vordrassil's roots touched Yogg-saron's prison in Northrend, leading to the Night Elves having to destroy it. Fandral Staghelm wasn't corrupted yet either.
So.. where is all of this video content coming from?
Teldrassil was vulnerable to Nightmare corruption because it wasn't blessed - sorry, probably could have been a little more clear on wording.
@Bellular Warcraft So that was the "corruption" that was eluded to in classic? Specific to that tree I suppose, not the beginning of the Nightmare itself. That makes more sense, thanks.
Fk yeah man, good doco :D
i know it's little late but I think it would be nice if someone change thumbnail with new Ysera. her Old model look weird compared to all new other Ascpects models
Ysera is best dragon.
If you mention shadowlands again I'm Finna skip your ads.
Thanks for this. I've been playing this game since 2004 and I still can't follow any of this shit.
Always wondered how do you think the Warcraft universe would react coming in contact with our universe. Like we’re not at all mythical and instead are more advanced in technology.
Just end up seeing a random Panzer IV E German tank in the Warcraft universe.
Pog
Waifuuuuuuuuu! ❤️
