Hiya Folks! Apologies for the delay, but I felt I needed to go a bit extra for the finale! The culminating moment Arthas becomes the Lich King is Warcraft’s most iconic scene. I edited quite a few parts, trying to fix things here and there, as best I could. It’s a dream of mine to one day see a full-fledged movie covering Arthas’ story from Crown Prince Paladin of the Alliance to Lich King bent on scourging the world. Hopefully Blizzard makes one in the future and does it well.
In summary, Warcraft 3 as a whole is testament to the creativity & passion of the original developers and gave birth to the phenomenon known as WoW and its multiple expansions. Again, Reforged is NOWHERE near what it could’ve been as shown in 2018, but it was a “decent” graphical update, and a nice way to replay & deliver the lore of Warcraft 3 to you guys. Hopefully most of you enjoyed it. I could use a rest, after playing 8+ campaigns and editing videos for each. Looking forward to Shadowlands, and hope it’s on par with (or hopefully surpasses) Legion.
I absolutelly appreciate what you did for us my guy. Also the music is spot on, there isnt a single moment where i think your editing (sound wise) is off point. Bravo and thank you
Arthas is the best villain blizzard has ever come up with, change my mind.
Uhhhhhh..... How about the lich king?
Gul'dan?
professor chaos - He’s good, but Arthas has always felt a bit better, especially his death. Arthas’ death was much more satisfying, but don’t get me wrong, I do still love Gul’dan.
Hogger.
Darkctan Hogger was indeed an utter badass.
Arthas' story is my favourite Blizzard character arch.
He's basically the Anakin / Darth Vader of Warcraft.
Except that Arthas was good until his lust for vengeance overcame his nature, Anakin always had the darkness in him
@@velenvskaelhas What do you mean? I’ve never heard that before.
If you only go by episode 1-3, he’s gradually falling from potential greatness to darkness, through both circumstance, like losing his mother, and manipulation by Palpatine. Whatever darkness he had in him to begin with is nothing more than any other human has to overcome?
The difference is what he went through that led him down a path which nourished things like fear, anger, hate and suffering. Everything Yoda warned Anakin about in Episode 1 turned into his entire life, because he always had fear of losing those he loved, thanks to never letting go.
It certainly didn’t help telling him he was special, because that only made him believe he should have been able to save anyone. And so he blamed Obi-Wan and the Jedi for «holding him back», when he lost his mother.
Jedi and Palpatine are both to blame for his downfall, but Anakin himself made the choices that eventually turned him evil.
He was obviously flawed from the beginning, but I’d say not much more than anyone else. What he went through and the choices he made turned him evil, not the other way around.
@@0That_Guy0 He was always afraid. Fear is a darkness that infests you're very soul, weaving its insidious tendril's through your being until whats left is just the withered remains of what could have been.
they did him so dirty in Shadowlands. It makes me so goddamn sad.
@@velenvskaelhas Everyone has darkness in them. Arthas was never pure. The very concept of vengeance is part of our nature. Same with lust. You used to sinful terms to describe the emotions of someone you call "good".
Arthas: "We have no time for these games!"
Sylvanas: *Ears perk* "...I'mma steal that for later."
She said it first.
@@axechop He took away her home. He took away her life. He took away her freedom. But worst of all... he took away her catchphrase.
@@gregorywalter2540 atleast he gave her a peace of death
He said "Its time to end the game" and he ended it.
🤣🤣 just what I was thinking!
The story of Arthas - the Warcraft movie we would really love to see. It would be so epic..
Wouldn’t be woke enough for them
@@Ultrajamz Good fucking lord dude, 2016 was 6 years ago. You can drop the kiddie "woke beta cuck soyboy" shit now lmao
FUND IT.
Man, editing just can't get any better than this.
Whispers of C'thun are so very well placed. Really give you chills. Just perfect!
Thank you, glad to hear it flowed well! I felt the voices could add a nice bit of tension as Arthas and Anub'arak went through the city and the Old God forces.
@@Athelarius Would it not have been better to get whispers and sayings from Yogg-Saron?
"im sorry Arthas, i cant watch you do this...." tears me up everytime! 😢
Arthas was one of the most badass villians there ever was in WoW. It's a damn shame we had to kill him.
Totally looking forward to WOTLK Classic.
Damn shame we had to kill him in such a disappointing way.
Overpower his vast legions of undead? N'aw, he just sent them away and decided to let us kill him.
played it hard for years when it was out, ill probably last one raid before being over it haha
@@Hust91 You do remember the part where he kills the entire raid, right? Also chewing through his hordes of undead. What did you really want a raid completely swamped with adds?
@@Servellion I wanted a WoW season that was more like a Warcraft 3 campaign, with the players part of enormous armies. With a desperate struggle as the legions of undead basically successfully invade the rest of the world with only a small glimmer of hope from some factor that to The Lich King would be new and unexpected, such as sorcery or technology brought by the Draenei, or demonic knowledge or technology retrieved from the Burning Crusade. If Arthas/Ner'zhul the Farseer who sees through time was to be defeated, it should not have been by him being a secretly suicidal idiot who can't predict that bringing in a bunch of players to face him in single combat was incredibly risky. And of course that Ner'zhul actually be fused with Arthas in such a way that Arthas does not have the ability to get rid of him, since Ner'Zhul's farsight would forewarn him of such a possibility.
Or don't defeat him in WoW at all and instead make a movie or separate game better suited for such grand stories that can be ended in ways other than the villain bailing on villainy.
That he kills the raid matters little since he still decided to allow them to slaughter their way through all his most important forces and get close enough to him to deliver a killing blow.
You beat a world conquering threat by bringing strategic advantages they don't see coming. Maybe a grand ritual like the one Illidan did to summon the entire Frozen Throne out of Northrend altogether like they did Dalaran, or crashing a piece of the Draenei city into its side, a move born of desperation as they cannot fight the undead hordes face to face, so they try to circumvent it.
hey at least we got 35 anima from him in shadowlands
Frostmourne hungers for new campaigns
😭😭😢 after all these years
Ahh, the voices, the script, the voice acting... Anub'Arak sounds so awesome it's ridiculous.
The excellent VA is what made warcraft. The voices just matched each character and their design so well that you remember them perfectly in memory, even decades later!
just wish Illidan had a deeper rumbly voice when outside of a cutscene... Illidan is my favorite character of all time@@Athelarius
To believe Illidan was right all along and could have saved us all from Shadowlands from the beginning.
He saved Legion, so i don´t think he could save 2 expasions in a row....
He would also 'save' us from WotLK, so give or take.
No, if Illidan destroyed it, then there would be that breach between azeroth and the Maw; just what happened when Sylvanas broke it
If Illidan would have destroyed it we would right jump to the expansion "Shadowlands" skipping all in between!? - That's awful!
You sir are a legend! Ah the old times when wow was absolutely brilliant...
All credit goes to the original team of writers and developers. It’s testament to their creativity & passion they had for the franchise. Character designs, rich lore, all while holding specific standards and rule sets.
@@Athelarius they got a fortune for this
It was never brilliant, it was good though. Over time, they have written and rewritten themselves into corners they could not get themselves out of and had to retcon a lot of stuff.
This makes me want to get this game and play Warcraft 3 again. I haven't played it since my younger years when the original game out. It is was one of the many great games that got into gaming when I was a child.
Warcraft 3 is an incredible game, and is the story that made the franchise what it is today. The amount of creativity that went into creating all these characters, the design, the direction. Wish we could see more of it today but it’s legacy lives on.
@@Athelarius Agreee although I never got into WoW too much, I think the price was a big deal for me (buying games, expansions and paying monthly fees). Is it still worth it to get started on the mmo in 2022?
@@justanenglishman5184 yea, especially since its a new experience, the gameplay is amazing MMO wise, but it is far from its greatness that it was.
Best MMO gameplay wise.
best thing about w3 is the world editor and custom games spent a lot of time playing tower defense in online
Common misconception, Arthas doesn't actually kill Illidan on the mountain. He defeats him and Illidan is forced to retreat. The original devs gave an interview and said that their biggest regret was not making the fight between Arthas and Illidan a true cut scene in the original game. Since they did it in the normal game mode they were locked into the death animation for Ilidans character so everyone assumed Illidan died and then they were all up in arms when it was announced that Illidan would be the final boss of Black Temple during TBC.
Warcraft 3 was my entire childhood. I would play other games, but I'll always go back to it. That's why I'm saddened by the current situation of Blizzard.
I always loved the final scene when the camera zooms out
you seen this prince who had it all, but with each mission he losses something, his faith, his people, his friends, his crown and his kingdom
and at the end, after all he has done, he gets a crown, he sits on a throne at the very top of the world and its lonely, isolated, with only the howling winds of a barren cold wasteland cheering him on.
He also loses levels, which is extremely annoying to deal with. He's level 1 at the start of final mission, a gust of wind can kill him
I loved the Lich King days.... before Blizzard tried to catch people's attention by throwing in plot twists that changes everything. Just let our classic villains be
The music, the VA, the designs, all were just excellent because back then you could see the passion & love reflected in the work with each title released. May we one day receive such masterpieces once more! Good, solid storytelling, with well rounded character arcs.
seriously. the fantasy is already cool enough. dont need to make it all complicated
As tears roll down my face i still claim there is hope for arthas
There is something in lore and about game everyone forgotten and that would turn the story around and restore him
"A crown, a throne, and a soul that lives on in the hearts of millions who have come to know Arthas and the story of the Lich King." Long live the King! To date, one of Blizzard’s most iconic & beloved characters, and defining character arcs. One day perhaps Arthas may get his proper debut and continuation of story.
@@ivobaki3751 Nah, he's not getting a redemption arc. And he shouldn't. Not all good bad guys need to be made good guys
@@trollzland1337 i am just saying there is a way to restore him if they are willing to go that way that would open up a new massive story line and many players would return to game cause after wrath of lich king many players felt the story is done for them and left with broken heart and bitter taste in their mouths :(
Gay
2:50 it's weird to see the bad guys actually showing concern for each other
Not really. Arthas did care for his...subjects.
7:22 goosebumps
In Snape voice: “Always”. I also like the extra animations they put into that cutscene, flowed nicely with Warcraft’s most iconic theme.
Whats is this ost name pleeeease, i search it for days...
@@xsagemdax Arthas my son
Arthas will always be the canon hero to villain story of my childhood. Thanks Warcraft for being as good as you were when I needed you. I hope Warcraft can help other lonely kids get through the hard times and just maybe inspire them to make something creative of their own.
*knock knock*
hello, Warcraft Battle Royale is at your door!
Man that pan out of him sitting on the throne with the heartbreaking music portraying his complete loneliness. Sad and tragic
Awesome... just awesome music, voices, history, a truly master piece.
The music, the VA, the designs, all just excellent because back then you could see the passion & love reflected in the work with each title released. May we one day receive such masterpieces once more!
Illidan had the high ground and still lost it. What a loser 10:49
"it's over Arthas, I have the high ground!"
"You underestimate my power" *undergoes metamorphosis and gets sword to face...er chest**
He never learns.
@@Athelarius it should be "its over ilidan, i have the highground"
since arthas pwned him
If you read the book, illidan was overwhelming arthas and lost because he left an opening when he came down
@@cflgt500 My comment was not a serious remark, it is a reference to Revenge of the Sith's 'It is over Anakin, I have the high ground.'
@@Athelarius invincibility frame during meta leap :( illidan missplayed it
These are awesome thanks for uploading!!
i swear the way he edited and add sound to it made it 100x better
Oh thanks! Glad to hear it flowed well. Wanted to go a bit extra for the finale, and felt Arthas deserved it.
@@Athelarius you're doing great keep it up ☺️
Illidan can fly yet fails to fly to the top of Icecrown
He can only hover. He can't fly.
@Athelarius Love your content with the reforged cutscenes, I was thinking, could you make a single video with all campaign cutscenes from reforged? I feel like that would bring a lot of joy to more people😁.
Thank you!
Thank you for this. So nostalgic and so many memories popped up playing this with my brothers and friends
Such well timed music gives the proverbial goosebumps.
You make these very good actually
Glad to hear. I spent a bit more time on this one as I felt the finale had to be a bit extra. Thank you!
who wouldve thought Illidan would finally become the real hero of the whole lore facing Sargeras himself at the end
"The Elf gate is protected by a special key, you'll never go through it."
"Even now our armies are marching upon Icecrown."
WHy do elves rat out their secrets to Arthas and then wonder how they got their asses handed to them?
Arrogance
because of pride and arrogance
To trigger the main quest?
"These elves are pathetic. It's no wonder we destroyed their homeland so easily"
I mean its the same bad practice you see in hollywood movies where Villains tell their secrets to everyone.
Really enjoy your lore videos ❤
The story of Arthas is one of the most beloved tales of the Warcraft franchise. This video pays tribute to that, especially with the events of Wrath. If only Shadowlands could've shown the same amount of respect towards Arthas. Perhaps more lies down the future in the franchise! Hope never dies.
This lore and music still makes me feel it even after all these years I cant believe blizz almost fucked it up
Almost?
Did fuck it up. I quit wow last year but i keep up with its story. Seeing arthas as a blue ball and sylvannas once again taking the floor for this expansion. is the one who talks to him and its just more of her petty garbage. "i hated you, i hunted you" etc. what went from one of the best villains in gaming history went to the the worst ending of a main villain ever. Such a waste of a good Character.
It was the main reason i played shadowlands like i did, i just wanted to see arthas again hear his voice. Hear the words of the man with a clean soul not a curse. hear his words on what he did. but no voice no ghost just a blue floating ball...
The lich king you see at the frozen throne in wc3 is Ner'zhul the first lich king. actually an orc death knight. his spirit was imprisoned inside the helm and they were merged together when he equipped the helm of domination. hence the ''now we are one''
I liked the edit bro nice vid
"Heavy is the head that wears the Crown....." Rest in Honor...King Arthas...may the future whispers of your name flourish...and be Remembered
I always loved it when he orders sapphiron to attack like a puppy hahahaha
Arthas' dragon was Sindragosa. Kel'thuzad's dragon was Saphiron. God damnit WoW lore is good.
@@DmDrae wtf? This is Warcraft 3. Sindragosa wasn’t even raised yet.
The fact that they did not get Liam to revoice Illidan is a sin. Well, it is reforged after all
amazing
18 years later and everyone still make video with "arthas kill illidan' tittle lol
10:46 "FIRST!" Illidan
Everyone knows he who first claimeth dibs on the Frozen Throne is superior.
I Never playerd nor Will play this complicated PC games. But i remember when i was a kid here in Brazil and seeing posters with this Guy face in every lanhouse i passed by. He had an evil smile with half of his face showing in the poster It was everywhere back in the day
These whispers of C'thun...
I think its Yog
@@johngao1971 it's C'thun
CAThun
@@GogaPartizan meow
@nikolai bahtin except that those whispers are from AQ40 in World of Warcraft
He sits there wow cool story bro. Nice, good, comfortable seat. Good, just good
Don’t let this distract you from the fact, that this is all part of Zovaal’s master plan
Which ruins the story...
There is no Zovaal in Ba Sing Se
It’s not lol do you even follow WoW lore ? Zovaal had no control over Arthas.
@@cizmar1972 Dont worry, Zoval did not plan that, he had no control over arthas.
@@seeqaillmind2540 Either way they ruined the story. I did not want to see the afterlife for any of them. It was better a mystery.
The most epic cine in Blizzard's history
That’s cold, dude
I am so sad this couldn't be brought to live-action. The movie wasn't successful enough to get a sequel. This would have made such an awesome movie series. Maybe they should have taken the George R. R. Martin route and done TV series instead of movies
Leave Warcraft to the rts genre. You're asking for shit to be brought to the live action.
The CZcams algorithm has blessed us again.
I am actually still tilted they did Arthas like that. Out of all the characters to redeem, they don't choose Arthas. The one dude that CARRIED THE FRANCHISE. Imagine against the jailor, Arthas became the key to defeating them. Maybe he's the last bit of strength to kill the Jailer. And maybe somewhere along the line his old self returns, where he remembers what it was like to be a paladin--to love and protect the innocent. And through a final sacrifice, saves all of Azeroth like he always wanted from the very start. That IMO would have gone over amazingly with the fanbase, since the last thing they have shown to dislike was girl power Sylvannas.
Blizzard is garbage. The original writers are gone and new ones are actively trying to undo original characters and lore. I played Wotlk for decade now and i returned to retail with Shadowlands expecting some story, and new writers are ACTIVELY trying to avoid the true Lich King Arthas in any way possible. I mean Sylvanas reedeming herself. What a joke. The whole expansion was a big let down. It started great but ended up as complete shit.
Personally, I'd rather wanted Arthas to become unredeemable. But the way they ended his arc in Shadowlands just proves how bad the current writers on Blizzard (Activision) have become. So much more potential to finish the Arc of Arthas. However, for me it should not have been a happy one. Sometimes characters in fiction are no longer able to be redeemed.
Also the way Sylvanas was redeemed was also too cheap.
What exactly did he do to deserve redemption? Arthas has shown himself a ruthless fanatic stepping over dead bodies for his own selfish reasons even before becoming a Deathknight, and for all the crap you give Sylvanas - at least she *was* a good person in life. And all that happened aftetwards has little meaning, since virtually anything he could do can be attributed to corruption and influence, rather than being his own doing.
Put down your pink glasses and grow the fuck up. Even Garrosh has way more depth than Arthas as this point.
@@krollovic arthas did nothing wrong. theres nothing to be redeemed for.
Idk why would you need to redeem Arthas at all, his story was a masterpiece.
this was during early 2000 where "rebellious phase" is the trend. young Arthas underwent a really good phase, and most of the players playing, probably relate with Arthas' story. his naivety/innocence actually killed him. he was forced to turn his back on humans he wanted to protect, he also tried to kill every undead he doesn't like (killing their leader would make him the leader) while accepting that he is also an undead.
it's highly similar to kerrigan's story when she was reborn as a zerg queen (she was also betrayed by her superiors, tried to eliminate the head of the zergs and took the crown for hers alone)
I demand the return of our Lich King!!
If only we knew. If only we hadn't forgotten. May the Lich King live forever on in our hearts, and his legacy endure. The best story of Warcraft.
august i think
When he sits on his throne... I feel more pain than anything else, it feels like arthas is dead and the lich king is in control, it's very tragic...
02:16
Arthas : Hol’ up
Fantastic, wotlk best best lore and expansion ❤❤❤
I love it! I’m currently looking for knowing more about warcraft and the story behind that. Looking forward to improve art skill to someday work in that game!! Thanks for the video :)
You will be disappointed, what happened...
If you're actually wanting to work there, don't be a creepy, sexist asshole. Work there because you're genuinely passionate about the game and lore.
I had completely forgotten about the Illidan fight
We went from this epic storyline to Shadowlands. What a waste of good storytelling
Sylvannis shouldn't have that kind of power to destroy the helmet. Smh
Illidan trying to grab Frostmorne with his hand is quite silly
I love the new cutscene for this... the audio is so good. It really makes it so intense.
Oh the memories......
Except he doesn't die he survives and runs back to Outland to prepare for the legion and build his illdari
ikr otherwise tbc wouldn't have happened
He is dead. But he is a demon he have an immortal souls. So yeah it's almost pointless killing illidan unless it is in nether
@@mrpresedin3534 nah he survived
Arthas a melhor história e a música combinação perfeita
After it broke the lashes of Kil'jaeden, Lich King became self-aware. This all-knowing being completed its plans and threw Frostmourne out of its frozen cage in order the sword to come back to his master. The two breaking points in this story are Arthas' finding Frostmourne and coming back to the throne.
Frostmourne's power is to capture souls. Its first scar was upon Arthas' soul. The moment he grabbed the blade, the human Prince Arthas Menethil was no more. The ''champion'' of Lich King was born. Because Lich King dominated Prince Arthas Menethil's mind first. Frostmourne was an extension of it and the blade was now his champion. I can never blame Arthas after he grabbed the sword. He became just a shell at that point.
In this story, Prince Arthas isn't the villain; he is the victim. My favourite scene is during the champion climbs the stairs. The human, Arthas is almost entirely gone and the only things he can hear now are his worst deeds, his closest victims. It begins with Uther's council to him ''...turn to bloodlust, we would become as savage as the vile orcs...'' And after his last bit of conscience screams everything at Arthas, the last thing he remembers is ''...your young prince will find only death in the cold north...'' Later, death and terror comes from north.
The main villain of this story, Lich King is a beautiful characterization and really good depiction of ''The man who sits above all else''. Its location is on one of the most difficult geographical areas with harshest climates. It sits at the top of the highest tower. Even getting such a place is an issue for an army. Controlling everything from a throne is a nice concept of a dictator. And with the two powers of soul capturing and dominating, you can be a really powerful being.
Arthas is the best written character in the WOW Universe. The cinematic associated with him are still chill-inducing, decade later, people still play WoW: WOTLK on private servers to re-live the glory, WoW peaked with WOTLK, what can we say..
Erm... If I didn't remember wrongly when I played the old Burning Legion, Arthas took the sword willingly. He even killed a Mountain King who tried to stop him from getting Frostmourne, because the Mountain King actually read the "instructions" on the sword or the tablet near the sword and know that the sword is a cursed sword. By that time, Arthas had already been corrupted in both mind and soul, fueled by his desire for revenge against the Undead Scourge, only to be consumed by it. So he is by no means a victim.
According to what I can still remember, Arthas was a Paladin that was sent on a mission to investigate or stop the Scourge from spreading in a city. The Necromancer, under orders from Lich King, kept egging Arthas on. Turning his people into zombies right in front of him, spreading the plague and turning a whole city into zombies right in front of him. The Necromancer kept luring and taunting Arthas deeper and deeper into Blighted Lands and nearer to Frostmourne while letting him witness more and more atrocities, all to fuel the rage and hatred in Arthas. When Arthas ordered an entire city to be purged, that was when he started his fall from grace as a Paladin. The time when had completely fallen was when he murdered his friend the Mountain King in order to get the sword for power to get revenge against The Necromancer.
The Lich King Ner'Zhul chose Arthas as his champion and his new body right from the very start with the omniscience ability he gained by becoming the Lich King, but ultimately in the end, Arthas was the one who made his choices and chose his path in life. If Arthas did not give into the desire for revenge, he would still be a Paladin, quite possibly married Archmage Jenna and had taken over his father's kingdom as King instead.
it took so many years to realize
that kerrigan and arthas almost had similar fate (betrayed by their own kind, reborn as the enemy they swore to kill, killed every executives or superior that are blocking their way)
the protoss and elves share some similarities (divided by color/race)
the protoss and orcs also share some similarities (tribal warfare)
humans and terrans have similirities (well they're humans and they have superiors that are evil while being masked as a good person)
its they were made by the same company or something
@@totallylegityoutubeperson4170 source?
Amazing video!
So does WC3 Reforged use all of the original voice casting? I've always been scared to purchase it because I was led to believe it was recast...
He did not kill, he wounded!
Why is the fight with Illidan updated but the final cutscene remastered? I'm confused.
The majority of the budget was spent on creating Sylvanas' 647th new CGI face for Shadowlands and the remaining few cents were allocated to Reforged.
Because people are idiots and are not satisfied. The original has a lot of atmosphere, Reforged kills that mystery and makes it obvious. It lame as hell.
to think that every thing happened because of Arthas him being born must have been the biggest moment in warcraft history
I know very little about the war craft lore. I have come to love illidan from playing hearthstone, watching thus hurts so much. From the little I know about him he seems like he was a victim of much unnecessary torment and a misunderstood evil. Much like my favorite star wars character, grievous
So basically, Kael'Thas gave away the plan. If he hadn't warned Arthas, the Lich King would be toast, and this whole mess could've been avoided.
and thats how arthas abandoned his waifu anub'arak
Never even bought him dinner. The nerve!
Wtf
@@lichking654 anub'arak is alone dude, go give him some love
@@kane7970 no I would never cheat on my kel'thuzad
Illidan and Arthas we're my favorite characters.
Arthas: These elves are pathetic.

RIP arthas , you were there in shadowlands the whole time....
The image of a lone figure sitting on a throne atop a high mountain or spire, but with nothing else around. I swear I recognize the image from somewhere but can't quite remember. It's been bugging me since I first played the game back in '03 (Christ, has it been that long?!). Beginning to wonder if it might be the Mandela effect...
Conan?
@@LikeButton7 thought about that, but no. It was up high, on a mountain peak or something similar. It might have been some obscure drawing I saw as kid or something. But I greatly appreciate your trying to help, thank you.
There was this guy in middle school, who was a complete WoW nerd and always pointlessly told everyone who'd listen (or not) about the game.
The same guy looked very surprised when I told him the Lich King originally was an orc. X^)
Ahora somos uno!
This was an improvement compared to its first release, still a long way to go sadly...
Definitely not enough to change Metacritic Score and its negative impression though....
I feel if they’d simply do the 2018 cutscenes for some of the major moments of Warcraft 3 and patch then in, it would help immensely. They don’t have to reforge the entire thing but it would at least be progress in the right direction.
Yeah, the fact, that the final cinematic is pretty much the same (in the fight cinematic cape is with holes, in final its solid as new) and the graphics upgrade is pretty much just an hd texture pack. Inconsistency :/
I think it's athelarius who did these improvements and not blizz

That's what I thought too, I realized much much later on....
Looks legit 😅
remembered my childhood..
9:14 my toughts about WOW
The day you were born the very forests whispered the name...
Derick
NO,Arthas,DON'T DO THIS!!
We’re still waiting for the Jaina and Sylvanas campaign, Blizzard.
This needs to be a theatrical release
You like shit movies huh?
Arthas is already wearing the lichking armor before he frees him from the throne? Thought only the sword was not imprisoned.
Not all armor.
I just want those Twin Blades of Azeroth for my Rogue.
I've heard some folks say that Arthas was actually intended to be the BBEG of WoW, way back early on. What a story that would've been
Omg i love the version of "Arthas my Son". Have a specific name?
So at the end of it all. Illidan was the actual HERO we refused to believe.
The nerubians must have thought that he was dead since he didn't return to them.
My favorite human in all of world of warcraft
I miss when arthas vs illidan with invincible full song...
This Pre cinematic look better then wow
1:25 Changed from red wallpaper into the realistic graphic
so you want to tell me arthas without lich king power and with small army he could beat ( alliance , sylvanas , illidan with kael'thas and vashj help )
meanwhile in 2020
lich king himself couldn't beat sylvanas alone with a holy army of deathkight, scourge and many minions
Because sylvanas has power from jailor, thats why she beat him :)
@@petann8845 Oh please that is not canon my opinion it ended at wotlk after that it sucks
@@Natha_Kun your opinion doesn't make it not cannon sorry.
@@Ojdaweedmane i mean for me the story ended after wotlk and the game starts going downhill
Hey. Nobody ever said Bolvar was more powerful than Arthas. Rofl
Was Arthas ever rude to Mormon missionaries simply riding bikes nearby?
There must always be... a lich king.
First of all Arthas doesn't kill Illidan xD Illidan survived.
Lol i was about to write like what the hell is this title xD
Idk but somehow i believe arthas kill him but illidan is immortal he cant be killed using frostmourne so.... you know illidan died then his souls back to his body you know found a way from spirit healer
What’s second?
Illidan has a demon soul which means allthough he can die, he'll always come back sooner or later.
When the last boss in 7.3 died, demons' souls stopped working like that.
Illidan died. Why would Arthas leave him alive if it jeopardizes his plans on Iccecrown? Plus, Arthas would never leave his enemy alive. He killed his dad, he can kill a nigh elf demon.
