Dangit now I want you to narrate the rest of the game. Especially since the mental image of a sobbing Illidan with a bucket of ice cream, probably in pjs jumping into a portal cheers me right up.

I-

Illidan doesn't get a bucket of ice cream, he gets a crate of mana bottles and drinks himself fel-stupid. Then he lets himself get captured by Maiev to have rebound sex with her.

Whats the music that starts at 6:40?

This happened when Boomers run the world.

He fucking attacked her a few chapters before, she has the right to ask. The best part is Illidan fanboys that pretty much only know half the lore run around defending him.

@@jpch8814 seems like you didn't even play any of WoW: Legion quests, which explain everything you don't understand. The WoW is the lore. Not Warcraft 3. And Blizzard officially announced long ago that Illidan was good all that time. That actually turns Blizzard into Illidan fanboys. You want to say you know lore better than Blizzard?

@@GogaPartizan Illidan is an anti-hero type,he is ''good'' in way that he wanted to stop the legion at all costs, which in turn ended up killing many night elves in War of the Ancients,Warcraft 3, and even in WOW BC. The fact that legion rectified him and turned him to messiah does not eliminate previous lore,WC3 is still canon, they reforged it for a reason.Most of the Illidan fans are fans because he is ''cool'' and ''sad emo soft boi'' that got rejected by Tyrande.

@@jpch8814 if you'll watch closely to what caused him to kill others, you'll understand that it was the price of the victory. If there were no deaths caused by Illidan there could not possibly be a victory over the Burning Legion. He had to do that. Had to kill few hundreds of people to save the world. That's the point. How can this be bad? Because Malfurion and Tyrande said so? Than their IQ is lower than 60. Moreover! Considering the fact that those two are considered as the wisest of their kind, I must admit their kind is dumb as fuck.

@Lalrivunga Hnamte I'm sure Jaina would've forgiven him if he explained it to her. Maybe not instantly, but knowing w3, he would've done some task like Illidan did here and earned forgiveness.

@Lalrivunga Hnamte even that would have been a preferable fate over what his soul got after his defeat in WotLK (basically hell) Its also interesting to think about tho, would Arthas be alive or dead after Frostmourne became powerless? Would he still be a Death Knight or would his body start to recover because his soul was free to go back to him ?

@Lalrivunga Hnamte thats what I mean by dead or alive. Arthas IS an undead technically, but his was a special case, since he didn't die like Sylvannas or Kel'Thuzad but rather Frostmourne slowly morphed him into an undead by slowly draining his soul and eventually turning him into the first Death Knight. So my question is , would Arthas be "revived" or would he remain an undead because his body was without a soul for too long?

lich king aint that dumb. lich king had 10 other backup plans

You can't escape this bitch no matter you are a god or great demon if she are on the hunt

Funny that Warcraft was released after The Lord of The Rings and also contain several in-joke reference of it.

More than a few.

It's funny you say that because Malfurion says that he hopes she doesn't cause more problems with her zeal, which is exactly what happened even before he though of saying those words xD

Whether Ner'zhul would.have been destroyed or not is questionable. But hid power would have been crippled and he would soon start loosing control over everyone exceot Kel'thuzad and his most loyal cultists. Hell , even Arthas might have been freed. As it was confirmed that as he was losing power along with Ner'zhul, Frostmourne was becoming heavier and he even contemplated dropping it because of the strain it put on his alredy weakened body

It doesn't matter now that blizzard decided to turn the lich king into the bitch king

But than the game would have been cut short and we wouldn’t have Wrath of the Lich King and that awesome cinematic.

@@theone1246 still, with Blizzard introducing alternate timelines, I wouldn't mind seeing alternate versions of events. Maybe ones where The Lich King won or was never evil in the first place? Cool shit like that would be awesome to see. But knowing Blizzard now, they'd be too afraid to explore it competently

Now that is called True Love

His love for Tyrande is indeed greater than anything. But don't be fooled by WoW online, in the games of Warcraft 3, he didn't care about Azeroth and its peoples and helped them only out of self-interest. He took the skull of Gul'dan only to get more powers, saving the forest was collateral. He sought to destroyed the Scourge only because Kil'jaeden promised him reward if he succeeded and punishment if he failed and almost destroyed the world to do it. Nothing he has ever done was for the interest of others except when it involved Tyrande.

@@efaristi9737 wow that was an interesting background story there, any idea how I can further read bout this?? Or do I have to play the gane coz I seriously can't afford any time to play WoW anymore 😭😭

@@acousticmeatus8141 Warcraft 3 isn't a online game but i guess you can just seek on the internet.

Malfurion: He and Maiev are meant for each other, why can't he see it? Tyrande: ... Really now, Furion?

Both these comments deserve a medal 🤣

Always and forever. Where's Snape when you need him.

What's the name of the music during that part ?

@@mertulucay8487 it is called "Arthas my son"

@@mertulucay8487 Arthas Ascension

Oh...Ok?

@@arkguy5103 It's a parody to the horrible voice acting of Illidan in the Scene where the Eye of Sargeras gets destroyed

It may not be good voice acting, but dam is it iconic. I have a replay button for that line in my head.

Oh yea he does

I noticed that too, it looked soooo silly

Well said. I think they did an injustice with Kael'thas in BC. I feel they threw away so, so many characters in that expansion for no reason.

Yeah indeed. A lot of things were forced. I feel that was the same way for some other expansions. I guess it is also the nature of the game. Progress for players need to be made and people get hyped about defeating big names. I can only imagine if the same team that made Classic and TBC were able to make that game in 2020. If they could make it like the current expansions storywise with the cutscenes (but leave gameplayer as it was back then). That would have been amazing!

I feel that TBC was lacking some storytelling. They had a lot of opportunities to interact Illidan with Malfurion and Tyrande, we could've find more of the Alliance that travelled through the Dark Portal before. And just like WoD, I thought that could've been more impact on Azeroth than pre expansion world bosses, dungeons and quests

When I got to 70 it was on WOTLK, I couldn't enjoy much of the expansion, though. This might be one of the reasons I was do confused and thought I lacked storytelling too

Apparently Blizz didn't really expect WoW to last as long as it has, and figured it'd stop being profitable after LK. They decided to kill off a number of characters, Kael'thas included, because they didn't expect to really have an opportunity to continue a story with him and figured he'd just make for a cool raid boss. Ironically, now that Activision is slowly strangling the life out of WoW, characters like Illidan and Kael'thas are being brought back. Watching this though, I forgot how polite and respectful Kael'thas was in WC3.

Hah now arthas is the wisp. *goes back to crying in the corner*

They ruined Kael'thas in TBC, but they ruined him even more in SL. They had the chance to redeem him, and while yes, the Accuser says he's redeemable, I mean *redeem* in the sense that his motivations and good will for his people are put to the foreground, not made up bad traits. But no, they fault him for everything that is _stereotypically_ Thalassian (from the Belf jokes etc). And I agree, most of his character was basically the opposite of "arrogant". He was naturally proud, obviously, he was High Elven royalty after all. It is ridiculous to hold that against him, especially when in most of his actions he was actually more submissive and serving than arrogant. I think his tendency to kneel before a master and serve a council/more powerful lord rather than taking full control himself (as symbolized by him not taking the crown (yet)) - that's more striking a character mark of him than the supposed "arrogance" that was now said to be his dooming flaw. Even the misused character from TBC had that as his main trait, in that case played as his flaw. The reason why he betrayed Illidan in that writing was because he felt like Illidan wasn't anymore a lord who had his best interests in mind, which was his people's future to be prepared in a way where they don't have to struggle from day to day, but instead thrive comfortably. And the reason why he just went with the next best master was, partly because he didn't see a better opportunity, and partly because diplomacy was his only political skill. He probably learned that during his time in Dalaran. Arrogance, on levels where it becomes a dooming quality or dominant trait, is not something that allows a person to be diplomatic, or be popular with other diplomats. I want to repeat that I don't like what they did with him in TBC. But it's at least reasonable to some extent because they didn't have to completely change most of the skeleton of his character. He was really being dumbed down, as was Illidan. Personally I also really liked the dream team of these unlucky anti-heroes, and breaking them apart and having them killed off was a huge shame. But the "arrogance was the main dooming quality of Kael'thas" bs can go back right where it came from. I don't care how many books they will write, how many retcons they will make. I'll never accept this. I'll always see WoW canon as an alternate timeline that I have to accept to an extent in order to play the game, and SL solidified that.

More than 30 actually man, only the wow classic is 20 years aftee this...

Lmao

Yeah.. and it's not as if anything even happened within those '10 seconds' either right? Like Malurion finding out about Maiev's lying, Illidan revealing he's trying to finish the ruler of the undead... :P

is this a hulk hogan reference?

lmao

Solving World Problems for drugs, get this man his drugs already.

I’m guessing in actual cutscene/cinematic format we would see why she gets caught on the bridge but here it looks like she could move but that’s just W3.

well i guess its the scale, in warcraft all buildings are really small in comparison with the units, because is a rts. So the bridge its a lot larger, also the spell needs canalization so she cannot move and only hits alive creatures.

If only they Reforged the cutscene to make more sens

@@commandervulkan they are greedy , thats not gonna happen.

Yeah... Sylvanas giving hints on how to disable the magic defenses of Silvermoon and power sliding into Arthas was pretty stupid too XD and the last one was a kind of cinematic hahahahahaha But, yeah, a lot of thing happened to be very awkward as a story just for the sake of the game. Still, for the time W3 was released, it was a hell of a story

He added the them........ It really suits every cutscene he had made......

Oh my god submissive?😂

@@bosbanon3452 looking back on this comment it does seem a bit fanficcy lol.

Oh please everyone is defending him here

@@TrulyWOW I think he meant in the game?

If so, then he literally is. Razing a village and destroying a continental ice cap are not small actions. Atleast towards the end there are people defending him.

New race incoming

Come on, how can you not remember the NE buildings

That's the ancient of wonders, although not sure why it's a turtle but it's fitting.

Max Aldebarane it was always a turtle

Its the nelf building Ancient of Wonders. Just in the new graphics you can actually tell its a turtle now lol.

would have made too much sense

I'm guessing in actual cutscene/cinematic format it would show as to how she gets caught on the bridge with the scourge, but the scale of W3 just doesn't do it that much justice, they way it's shown.

"Apparently she never fought elves before."

@@lakdav Eleves ? You mean undead scourage right ?

@@saimyintmyat9373 Its a reference to Sylvanas basically using this very technique destroying the bridge (while staying on the other side of it) during the undead campaign.

LOL

#illidanisoverparty Maiev likes that

How...

@@hokya7019 becouse he love her , and ik that feeking , only if you fall in love you will know that feeling

She had cause, but she also did more harm than good. There is doing your job and then there is becoming an obsessed loon

@@filipvadas7602 Illidan burned several Night Elf villages in Azshara. That's why the area was barren in Vanilla

​@@renaultellis6188 Because Illidan is trying to escape. It's kill or be killed. But if you really understand the lore in Wow, Illidan did more good for the Night Elves than bad. Illidan is the reason why Night Elves are still immortal and have powers over nature because he made the second well of eternity near Mt Hyjal. Also without Illidan, Night Elves, Orcs and Humans would have lose in the battle of Mt Hyjal because of Ticondrius.

They're there in some scenes and not in others. Its weird

Invoker kael

Kael'thas is a fashion icon

BRODHA!!

The night song. It's the night elve's theme from World of Warcraft

this world became mad with political correctness...

Warcraft world ain't really into tolerance.

Warcraft world is made to be racist on purpose at first they started as medieval but ended up as something much more modern with rudimentary but working flying machines and guns... bombs etc. Still in this world it's expected for it's people to have medieval thinking. Like being racist, sexist or maybe even homophobic is normal to them. Did we forgot about slavery? Like what was Thrall at first? What his name says... a thrall, a slave. So in such a world Malfurion's comments about the naga's looks are not such a big deal.

@@alphadios2003 Not to mentioned they were at war at the times.

Former night elf aristocracy who were ready to sacrifice the common folk for power, then got mutated when their plans exploded in their face? Of course his stomach turns.

Nope. Murlocs are basically Naga servants/slaves.

search for night elf song

@@ivomyh6200 Thanks mate 🤙🏼

How did she know the bridge was made of straw?
