    As an ongoing cancer survivor, Warcraft’s stories continue to be a source of comfort & relief. This is the best way I've found to introduce the wonderful World of Warcraft to old and new players alike, with its rich lore, characters and extreme potential. You can expect a retelling of in-game questlines, dialogue, adventures, cinematics & cutscenes to help players keep up with the ever evolving lore of the game.
    It's an incredible experience from start to finish! If that sounds like you, then you're in the right place!

    Hiya Folks! A bit late on the upload as Molly had to undergo another operation for her Breast Cancer. It's been an ongoing struggle for all of us, but keeping up with WoW's lore and this channel is one of the things that help keep her fighting on. She's always glad to read and respond to your comments, so never hesitate to ask! This compiles the Shadowlands Epilogue with lovely voice acting and superb animation from the team in these in-game cutscenes, especially on the lip-synch. There are so many more interactions I hope we get before we depart from Shadowlands, with Lor'thermar and Kael'thas of course being at the top. The Windrunner sisters, Lirath, and many more interactions with potential. And also, Turalyon has those "Golden one claims a vacant throne vibes" lately, especially with Anduin staying behind. Time will tell. Hope to see many great days ahead for the Warcraft franchise, with love, always. More story to follow soon!

      In the new book, The Jailer destroyed almost all remnant of his soul for being a thorn at his side. He ruined the dreadlords' plans and Ner'zhul failed in dominating him when Arthas donned the helm. (which is why Ner'zhul was severely punished in the Shadowlands)
      He would have had a chance of redemption, maybe, had Uther not damned him to the proverbial Hell.

      I can't believe blizzard destroyed Arthas. Most people liked Arthas and they should have make him a frame like Actvision did to Ghost in "Call of Duty" since people like Ghost because of his character and Actvision decided to make more about Ghost, more features like frames, skin and interesting storyline and thats how COD got many sign up players while Blizzard killing WOW, many of the game features got destroyed.

    • @girlgarde
      @girlgarde Před 2 lety +93

      @@misterbleedinggums So basically, Uther destroyed Arthas because it never occurred to him that Arthas's mind could've been warped and twisted somehow in Northrend. I guess what happened at Stratholme made Uther think that Arthas was evil so he didn't even give Arthas a chance to explain his actions like he should've and so Arthas has forever ceased to exist.
      If I was Terenas, I'd hate Uther forever for taking my son away from me forever. I just hope that Blizzard does something to bring Arthas's soul back one day. They could easily say that what we thought was the last fragment of Arthas's soul was actually the last part of the Lich King part of it and that the good part of Arthas's soul is still out there somewhere.

Elves are not like humans, they are much older and much wiser and just their culture shows how so much deeper relationships are to the elves as they've known each other for thousands of years and this small part demonstrated that.

      Which would eventually put him at Odds with Bolvar Fordragons Scourge, serving as a buffer between the Forsaken seeking refuge from the new Crusade. Who knows they might even make Bolvar or the Ebon Knights join the Horde to protect the last of the Forsaken.

    People DO care about Arthas and Kaelthas, and we are the people who have been paying for the game over 10 years and we are many in number. I'm sick of people saying our opinion doesnt matter, yes it does and there are many of us and i play with a whole group of people who love Kael including people NEW to the game. Arthas and Kael were great charchters that bring feels and purpose to the game with their huge lore and story. Kael was retconned twice, he went from being a calm spoken prince who wanted to study in dalaran and was reluctant to lead to being a mistachioed crackhead villian the moment he set a foot in outland just because blizz was short on time and needed bosses. Then he was retconned again in shadowlands to being a petulant brat placed in the emasculating time out zone and he has no justice. (To live, i tell myself he left a clone of himself in shadowlands and actually peaced out to DOTA2 as the Invoker, since the Invoker is based off Kael.) How awesome it would be to have him and lorthemar (whom Kael appointed as regent) team up. Place kael in the chair behind lorthemar in Silvermoon so i can say hi once a day and ill shut up. Have him wander around Silvermoon chillaxing so i can click on him once a day for a short comment and even just that will be enough to make up for taking this huge dump on his lore. Or make him come back as the leader of sanlayn so we can have vampire belfs. They even fired his voice actor. They even made him go bald in one patch the ultimate humiliation. And Arthas should not have picked up the sword... but beyond that the lich screwed with his mind and corrupted him. He gets his soul extinguished while everyone else gets a chance to redeem? Arthas ain't resting he's been erased! But meanwhile tyrande got a whole redemption story and comes back to life, and sylvannas gets to go to the maw and save souls cause she's super sorry for genocide (that's not a punishment). I guess you gotta be female, i guess that's it. But then even illidan had a castle of concubines and then we got lectured for hating him and they turned him into a hero. I say this as a woman, the scales aint balanced here and the male charchters got emasculated this expac and i want justice for Kael and i likewise understand how upset the Arthas people are.

    While others are not a fan of Arthas' fate, I think it's kind of fitting. Arthas went through so much control and manipulations throughout the years before he's killed. And even then, we would know that his soul was in the Jailer's hands from that moment, going through even more twisting and warping. It makes sense that his soul just vanishes. He's tired and just wants to rest. His theme gently playing in the end just kills me though. Arthas is what got me into WoW after becoming obsessed with his character in Warcraft 3.

    Sylvanas will have some long talk to illidan about how she can redeem herself, Illidan will do his head turn smirk thing and say some line about it being a long uncertain path that will most likely never reach its destination.

      Sylvanas was not manipulated. She says that herself in this exact Video. The Jailer had shown her the mechanism of death and told her why He thinks its unjust.
      He made her some prophecies and when those came true she decided to ally with him for what she may thought would be the greater good.
      Arthas was neither manipulated. He sought out Frostmourne because he thought he needed this power to save his entire world.
      He commited crimes only to reach it and even before he knew of it (Stratholm).
      In the Sylvanas Book we learn that Arthas was in fact trying to thwart the Jailers plans and was also somewhat successful in that he didnt obey to Ner'zhul and the Helm of Domination. (We dont know what the Lich King would have done if the Jailer actually had control over him but Arthas' aim was to raise an undead army which the Legion couldnt stop)
      This is why the Jailer actually destroyed Arthas' soul once he got his hands on it.

    Surprisingly, this does give me some kind of satisfaction.

But her old self knew their had to be penance, and all the lives her dark half killed and sent to hell itself had to be brought back, so the old ranger now in control went through with it all.
    In a way, the banshee sylvanas has been erased from the story in the same way Arthas and Garrosh were, the old ranger sylvanas is now in control.

    This whole ending drives me insane. Genn getting a snippet of dialogue about his son, but Tyrande still getting "revenge" for the only genocide she thinks took place at the hands of Sylvanas is annoying. Especially considering he doesn't even say it with rage, just a little grump. I do hope he's pissed at Tyrande. There was no stakes in this entire expansion. Anduin's fine, Tyrande's fine, Sylvanas is going to be fine. The only ones we lost were the ones Blizzard was pissed we still loved, Garrosh, and Arthas for example. And Tyrande trying to say that Elune stayed her hand because of the "redemption" Sylvanas gets, even though Elune essentially allowed the tree burning in the first place feels like they had no idea how to explain it all. The only good parts seem to be Lor'themar, Baine, and the Windrunner trio talking briefly. I really hope this expansion will forever be behind us. I even accepted some of the weird parts of WoD, and BfA. But I find it real hard to defend anything in Shadowlands.

      As for Elune allowing the Burning of Teldrassil, it is explained in her conversation with the Winter Queen, after we save Tyrande from dying from excessive night-warrior-ness. Elune's intention in letting the tree burn was to supply Ardenweald with souls as she was aware of the drought. She was unaware of it's cause though, which resulted in her unintentionally dooming her favored children to torment and erasure within the Maw.

      sometimes few words and passive language speak more. Sure its easy to understand anger if someone rambles with outrage, but with those few, cold sentences, I found it more scary. Like he doesnt want to say out loud what he feels, cuz that would be an open threat. Or he is not willing to show any rage towards Lor'themar, because he feels like he doesnt even deserves that attention.
      Dont get me wrong, this expansions lore sucked ass, but I dont think that Genns few "grumpy" lines were intended to sideline him. I think they are building up to a story where the Alliance may end up in inner turmoi. Genn still has a lot of rage within him towards the Horde, as we have seen, and Turalyon has shown signs of being a devoted extremist, who sometimes has Scarlet-ish tendencies. We have also seen pamphlets of the Scarlet Brotherhood, a remnant of the same crusade, intending to fight alongside Genn, and then backstab him to create a new, human oriented Alliance. I may be overinterpretive and on too much hopium, but I think Genn will have a bigger role in the future, and I dont think he will be a pacifist. Especially not while Anduin is still staying in the Shadowlands. And there is a lot of potential in the Alliance having inner division imo, so if they dont fuck it up, it may be pretty fun and entertaining lore.

    Only I think all shadowlands was made just to redeem Sylvanas? Every major character who has something to do with Sylvanas helped her with Redemption arc.
    Anduin - His enslavement reminded Sylvanas what Arthas had done to her. But of course, even if she committed genocide, golden boy still saw her bright side. All Anduin did to be a boss and planted a seed of uncertainty about her actions.
    Uther - Despite many killed by frostmourne only Uther and Sylvanas were important enough to talk about splitting souls. Uther literally became her therapist and shield so Jaina and the rest of the leaders didn't kill her right away.
    Zoval - Character created only to be blamed for all the crimes of Sylvanas. Writers had to figure out a way to save Sylv so they quickly created Zoval and a mechanism splitting soul.
    Arthas - bring back only for Sylvanas to have a monologue about how much she has become him. Which apparently force us to sympathize with her.
    Tyrande - Her only goal in Shadowlands was to kill Nathanos so Sylvanas would finally rebel against Jailer. And telling Alliance she's okay with all criminals who destroyed her people.

    VOLJIN was so fukin hype for war chief and then he got backdrafted for a whole xpac and then immediately killed. AND thanks to contrived bullshit he was manipulated to make Sylvanud warchief, EVEN THOUGH SYLVANUS HERSELF SAID SHE DIDNT WANT IT AND WORKED BETTER FROM THE SHADOWS, all while Baine and Lor'themar were standing right there and 800% better leader options
    Sylvanus did some stuff in legion and then started a fourth war for *contrived reasons* due to *unclear motivation*, fukin lost Lordaeron in exchange for a toasted tree and some shitty coastline(that the alliance took back anyway) but it turns out all those moves werent supposed to make sense, she was just trying to bump her KO ratio since she was retconned to be working for the jailer since WotLK, even though she fukin very clearly was not and her personality and actions did not reflect this until the writers decided *hurrdurr alliance good horde bad again*. Not to mention all the people she kept reviving with plague to fill the forsaken, DEPRIVING HER ALLY OF MAW SOULS WHICH IS *APPARENTLY* SUPER VITAL TO HIS PLAN.

      @@TheStr0ke Talanji learned from her father on how to rule an empire, a far more complex society when compared to the small nomadic tribes of the Tauren.
      Anduin learned also at a young age, and is also a bit more familiar to the different races of the Alliance. However, even after he was finally crowned king, his pacifist approaches were met with criticism from various leaders. Even Greymane had to call him out. It was fortunate that they’re just not as aggressive as the Horde.
      Baine, on the other hand, would need to learn a whole lot about the extremely different races of the Horde and be especially delicate with each one. While trolls, orcs and Tauren seem to get along fine, there is a bit of friction when handling the Goblins, Forsaken and Blood Elves.

      Baine couldn't be Warchief because he was too buddy with Jaina and Anduin. This game is called World of Warcraft not World of Peacecraft
