    the death knight starting quest chain was bomb even if the area was dull. killing innocents, torture, and necromancy just to meet a past friend and remember who you used to be, then having to murder that friend. it was immersive and interesting and I would have loved if there was more.

      Because it's a game, you get into killing your enemies. And then all fo a sudden there you are, facing one of your race, who calls you out by name... it was jarring, and very effective.

    The worgen curse had nothing to do with Stalvan. His brother Tobias was the one who got infected due to living in Gilneas during the outbreak. He went looking for Stalvan after the city fell and flipped out when he found out about Stalvan's crimes, going as far as helping you put him in the dirt again.

    The forsaken have it really good. Starting with the awareness of being undead, then with pieces Lilian Voss' story. After you move to the whole of Silverpine where you do a lot of quests with Sylvanas, one of the biggest lore characters in the game, and the quests are incredible. Then you're sent to Hillbrad and start right off with "Welcome to the Machine", one of the funniest quests in the game and continue on following a bunch of interesting incidents within the zone.
    Because of this I almost always level a new horde char in those three zones and i'm never bored.

    Matthias Lehner=Arthas Menethil (anagram). And it's the model from the Warcraft games. The kid *is* his heart. Because, clearly this story just had to be *more* tragic than it already was... Only game where I've ever cried after killing a boss. The suffering he inflicted on the world was trivial compared to what he did to himself.
    And uh, we didn't kill the Lich King, just like we didn't kill C'Thun. We took out Arthas and replaced him with Bolvar. There is still a Lich King (and he's gonna show up in Legion!) We just knocked out C'Thun, and slaughtered his minions. If you kill an Old God, the land gets all destroyed and stuff. C'Thun could still pop up again, though he'd have a bit of a challenge. But no way did a bunch of level 60s kill him.

    • @camzoman
      @camzoman 8 років тому +1

      We did kill him. The quest from the item he drops describes him as dead. In a comic, Cho'Gall attempts to resurrect him, meaning he's dead. When the devs were asked at blizzcon 2010 about why the land hadn't been destroyed, they said "Did you play Cataclysm? You know, where the world blows up...because of the Old Gods."
      He's dead. So is Yogg Saron.

    • @prinstyrio0
      @prinstyrio0 8 років тому +8

      Blizzard keep changing their lore though. Recently it's been said the Old Gods cannot die, or at very least, not the way anything else does. They are neither alive nor dead, they literally are cancer to Azeroth. We've recently found out that Yogg-Saron isn't truly dead and his influence still lingers in Ulduar.

    • @camzoman
      @camzoman 8 років тому

      Tyragon Yogg is dead. He still has influence, but so does the very dead Y'Shaarj, and so does C'Thun. Even when Old Gods die, they have a level of influence.

    • @sophiejones7727
      @sophiejones7727 8 років тому +2

      Awkward Squirtle yogg and all the other old gods were never properly alive. This has been well-established since Wrath. It wasn't made crystal clear prior to that however thus some people thought that we'd actually killed C'Thun. But it has since been established that 1) we aren't nearly powerful enough to take down an Old God and 2) that you can't kill an Old God in the usual sense, only remove it. But Tyragon 's analogy is a good one. You can't kill the Old God, just like you can't "kill"cancer. It isn't a being unto itself: it is a corruption of the mechanisms of life. What we did in Pandaria effectively means that Y'Shaarj no longer exists. Aman'thul ripped him out of the planet: and then we cleansed his remaining influence. You can't "kill" an Old God, but you can eradicate it. Wipe it from existence: if you have the power of a titan, a huge army, and the twenty five heroes of the Alliance and Horde.

The first is that it’s actually a sequel of sorts to the original quest chain from Classic, and the second is that Stalvan was not a worgen, he was just so delusional that he tried comparing himself being a murderous psychopath to being afflicted with the worgen curse like his brother Tobias (who worgen players can meet in their starting zone before & after he gets infected) is.

He was justifying that everyone's really a beast like he was in life, regarding his psychotic breakdown and murders.

    The Rhok'Delar quest chain is by far my favorite in WoW. Everything about it seemed so epic. A LOT of work went into even getting the quest. I recall each fight very clearly. It was almost 20 years ago, but those moments are locked into my mind. I recall "jousting" Franklin. A technique we hunters would use to run directly at an enemy, through them, and wingclip as we did so. Then proceed out to range, autoshot, scorpid sting as he got close, joust, and continue.
    I also recall that the demons were not always "up". So members of the guild would message things like "Simone is up in Un'Goro." I recall getting a call from a friend at 2:00 am saying, "Artorus is up in Winterspring, hurry up and get online!" Showing up for our Molten Core raid that week with Rhok'Delar felt so good.

    Oh, I remember the quest to that one tower and /trying/ not to aggro too many npcs at once because they would kill her and she wouldn't just reappear, so I had to abandon that quest, find the starting point without a map marker, and do it again. It wasn't just me either. Someone else had that issue, so we grouped up to try and increase our chances at getting it done.

  • @RoXx1811
    @RoXx1811 8 років тому +6

    Seeing this makes me a little sad, because back in in vanilla when I started playing I just ran through the world leveling and not reading quest texts. All I wanted to achieve was getting my character to level 60. There were so much details I missed because of that. The world was so wonderfully crafted with so much love and passion to detail and me as a 14 year old just ran through it without noticing most of the worlds jokes, innuendos and lore.
    It was STILL one of the best games I've ever played. I think playing WoW today would be so much different, because I would love to explore areas, read quest text and watch those little scenes quite thoughtful and most certainly never reach max level because of that.

And honestly, even if Arthas was able to just stroll into Silvermoon, it's unlikely he wouldn't have simply killed and raised the citizens.

    Just as a side note for the Epic Hunter Bow quest chain:(cause I havent seen anyone mention it between your videos that go over it.) You also got a quiver during it by needing the Ancient Black Sinew(I believe. Not on the game currently to check.) When they removed that questline and also the need for ammo during Cataclysm, they turned it into a 32 slot bag. Which was amazing at the time. I've used it up until recently with the newer bags being added are like 36 or 38 slots now. Sits as a bag in my bank now.

  • @malodemesidon1035
    @malodemesidon1035 8 років тому +42

    For me the silverpine forest is the ultimate proof that sylvanas has become maybe even worse than the scourge, she is raising death against they will, enslaving them ( like with the kirin tor mage). Godfrey is a treatous and racist bastard, but he is right on this point: Something should have be done a long time ago.

    • @arachnofiend2859

      None of the undead raised by the Forsaken are enslaved; they're free to go back to the grave or leave and work for another faction so long as they do not directly oppose the Forsaken. The undead working with the Argents are largely those who were raised by the Forsaken but decided that they did not belong there.

    • @malodemesidon1035

      @Makingthebullet 7 років тому +12

      I play a Forsaken, many actually. All Forsaken are given the choice to serve. Given the choice. Mostly, all the corpses Sylvanas brings back are willing because, lets be real here, Blizzard couldn't have you go to EVERY single new undead to help reassure them, so it was easier to just have them accept becoming Forsaken.
      In reality, though, probaly 2/3 actually go to becoming Forsaken, with the rest either choosing to do their own thing or go back to being dead.
      This all being said, Sylvanas is a massive bitch for playing the Arthas card with Crowley.

    • @misternoxxnoxx
      @misternoxxnoxx 6 років тому +1

      You've obviously never levelled an Undead. At the start there are resurrected people saying they'd rather be dead, and die again. Also you put down an uprising of Forsaken that didn't wanna serve Sylvanas. There's no mind control involved.

      Rizerr96 Look at it this way. There are two kinds of battle in the Warcraft Universe. Player Battle and Lore Battle. In Player battle we can slash their face over and over but only the dmg done matters. In Lore battle everything is realistic and getting shot in the face does kill someone.

    Great list. Some I'd add are....
    They Call Him Smiling Jim. This was a neat quest BEFORE the Dustwallow Marsh revamp that ended in a dead end. After the revamp it tells a story about a guy who became the town idiot/drunk after losing his family in a fire.
    Alliance Onyxia Attunement. Another great, epic quest that ended with you marching along Marshall Windsor (and generally the entire zone who followed along to see what was happening) through Stormwind to unmask Lady Prestor as Onyxia.
    I believe these are both Alliance exclusive quests and you seem to prefer Horde so if you haven't played them, I'd recommend trying They Call Him Smiling Jim at least (sadly Onyxia attunement is gone as I'm sure you know).

    If you ever do updates, definitely update the battle of darrowshire here, now that you can redo the original. The retail version of it pales. In the original one, Pamela's father commits an attrocity of some sort, and we have to Chromie to get them to try and 'fix' things. While there is not a lot CHromie can do do change these grand events, they give us the ability to allow Pamelas father to atone for his sins, which is the culmination of the quest chain with the epic raid quest Battle for Darrowshire. I am actually annoyed with myself since yesterday, I had joined a group to actually do this final step in the series. and when we go there, some alliance had just completed it which allowed us to just click on Redpath to get 'accept his forgiveness' or whatever the objective is. Then I handed it in and instant regret. I denied myself real completion of the last quest in an amazing chain. Oops.

    Stalvan's re-work wasn't that bad it just expanded on the events that occurred beginning in vanilla. The quest itself says he journeyed from Silverpine where the worgen were organised by Arugal, and without any solid info to back it up I'd suggest the timeline of his journey south coincided nicely with the Scythe of Elune being dumped and corrupting the duskwood area. The issue really was that 3 expansions later it felt like they were cutting and tying ends to make them fit when really it was the story that should have been told originally.

You'll have to be careful not to kill the pirates while farming the Bruisers for rep but, otherwise as long as you don't complete the quest you can farm Bloodsail Rep all you want.
