My next step in this big bad evil plan is letting Sylvanas live (after she betreyed me) becuase she's the only character in the entire story that knows my great plans and can tell you how to stop me.

Kinda true since it's just created another temporal line instead of changing it, hence why the bronze dragon dont want to change anything.
The Things that happened in Warlords of Draenor didn't change the past of our Azeroth or the Outlands .
But wod was another timeline so it never was our past.

Stopping the jailer seems very vengeful. I'd like to choose renewal and make peace with him. Thanks.
Did Elune make you say this???
The video itself was good, great work from the art department. The story though... from purely ingame perspective, how were we supposed to know about this inner struggle? Is it explained in the books?
It is not. In fact the books almost directly contradict these new story elements.
Maybe in the new one
Please buy it
its obious she wasnt totally herself since arthas killed it, just have above 10 IQ like everyone who kept liking sylvans
It sounds like her inner struggle did not exist until the two halves of her soul were reunited.
Her inner struggle didn't exist until the writers realized how much of the player base hated her character arc from BfA onward.
oh no way the bad guy was good guy all along but spooky magic made her do evil things what an unexpected never-before-seen twist
she actually wasnt, thats her soul, thats her from before she died, now forced to accept what "she has done" and help or pass on it
@@elCat33 Which is not and has never been how souls work in Warcraft.
That was her doing these things tho? Soul was split and the wild part of her that was seeking vengeance and revenge (hence on why she was easier to get controlled by the jailer) was the dominant one. That's different

Blizz: "We kinda forgot about elves glowing eyes"
Or I'm missing something in the lore
Her old WC3 model has blank eyes, but not really blue. WC3 reforged and Heroes of the storm has her with glowing blue eyes. WoW for some reason changed it to normal human eyes.
4:30 glowing
Blood elves originally had glowing blue irises because of the use of arcane magic. Night elves are the ones with completely glowing eyes (without visible iris or pupil).
"It was Agatha all along" energy.
It was Sylvanas all along.
Sooooo basically everything that has happened up until here for Sylvanus weren't even her own decisions because "the jailer is deceptive"? Kinda just makes all of her decision obsolete.
no, more like the part that stayed on Azeroth was the one the wanted revenge and was resentful of her condition. The hero part was trapped in Frostmourn. if she would have died by normal mean, she would have been sent to Maldraxus or Bastion for sure because she died defending her people.
No, what it meant is that Ranger General and Banshee sides will never get along meaning she wouldn't wake up and help others get to Jailer. That's why he returned her soul to her, but Uther was able to mend the sides and wake her up
It effectively makes her entire character from wc3 to now not even real
@@LightningDragonGamer oh god.
@@LightningDragonGamer how? It just makes it partial - just like Uther in Bastion was.
Shouldn't her entire eyes be glowing blue?
It's easier to tell what she's thinking and reacting to with her eyes not glowing.
