Stormsong Valley is the final major zone we need to cover for Battle for Azeroth launch. The kul tiran fleet has gone missing and the tidesages don't really seem to care. Their connection to the waves has brought them in contact with some rather dark beings... I hope you'll enjoy!

Aaah, this was soooooo great! I've always loved water magic, and it seldom gets the chance to be showcased so, to see an entire organisation dedicated to it is just superb. The fact it mixes in with some lightning to show the power of the storm makes it all the better for me, though I'm glad it stays focused on water as is. Tidesages confuse me a little though. With such a connection to water, shouldn't they be shamans, with Neptulon knowing them well? It's kinda like how Kul'tiran druidism is weird compared to all other forms, but, I'm not complaining~ the voices of the sea ARE pretty mysterious though. All hints we've been given always point to Old Gods when it comes to the oceans, but then again, the seas lead the closest to the centre of the planet, and considering the first sources of power have been wells, as in lakes, could all this water imagery point to Azeroth herself? Pike really grew on me now that I've seen this; that small laser spell fight looked so neat! I can imagine what they intended with it. Also, Riptide? I think you Percied my Anaklusmos there, Blizz. Sam however was... not exploited enough, imo. I didn't quite catch what his personal stake on the Stormsong betrayal was, but I think we lacked hope spots to make his tragic death really hit as it should have. All in all, among my favourite things I've seen! To the point that I actually feel bad the Horde managed to steal the sceptre of tides.

I think that there maybe some tieds between the Tidemother and the Tidehunter Neptulon. After all usually the shamans are connected to the water elementals to use thier water totems and the highest Elemental of Water is Neptulon. There has never been a mention of a Tidemother before BfA. Maybe the Tidemother is an offspring of Neptulon? Think about it. In Cataclysm the Naga were able to capture the Neptulon himself. Maybe there was something that happened between this and Legion where we see Neptulon again in the Shaman Order Hall? And this something is connected to the Tidemother? Now I wished they had put more detail into this part of the game in cataclysm....

@RileyRivalle2 5 жыл бұрын

It's true they dropped the story of what happened to Neptulon after his kidnapping, but they later stated that he freed himself (likely as a result of Deathwing's defeat and his allies being weakened). I wouldn't mind of they wrote something more into that, like you suggest.

@andrewrenshaw2741 5 жыл бұрын

Daelin was a tidesage. He had the ability to summon elementals and use waterbolt in Warcraft. I'd say it's a mix between shaman and mage, it's own class. Actually, it's unique enough to make it a playable class later on.

@RileyRivalle2 5 жыл бұрын

But then you also have to throw the void in there, so it's rather like a shadow priest crossed with a mage (specifically for water-related powers). The deep oceans have a natural connection to both the water element and the void, so if they draw their powers from there it all makes sense to me at least.

@stormstrider1990 5 жыл бұрын

Daelin also had so called "Hydromancers" in his army that used water magic, so the concept of tidesages goes way back to Warcraft 3. Blizzard must also have taken some inspirations from the Drowned Priests from Game of Thrones, given their role as priests and the kraken motif.

Dear Nobbel, I love your content, I love everything you do. I have one tiny advice, sometimes you speak too fast and that can cause not-very-good-english audience to be confused. I understand that you are trying to speak like a real story-teller which sounds fantastic, but still you can slow your speaking down a little bit. I mean just tiny bit, maybe..idk...

So Stormsong kinda ends the same way as Drustvar? Bring all the good guys to the bad dungeon guy and he/she turns one of them into a hostile npc you have to kill before entering the dungeon. Very original blizz

The moment he started speaking I was like: 'Is that Lor'Themar?' Its always odd when multiple characters share the same voice actor and Gideon plays quite a few in WoW (and other games ofc). Kind of gives that weird feeling you'd get in Elder Scrolls games where you constantly run into characters that sound the same. Its not helped by the fact that he has a very distinct voice Lord Stormsong shares voice actor with Baine and Jaraxxus among others

Do you mean the War Campaign story? I agree with you there, but I lov d Bwonsamdi and the story of Nazmir personally. What I’ve seen though, it seems like the Alliance hold the cards for winning this war so far. This is coming from a die hard Horde player here. Only time will tell I suppose.
