It's sad that the work this animator has done can make me feel more for WoW then blizzard has for the past 7 years. Really puts things into perspective
True, true, true, I miss the feeling of playing the paladin in Vanilla, BC, Wrath and well...the immersive Paladin experience faded over the years and I miss it so much.
Probably because it reminds us of a time when wow devs actually had clarity of vision and genuine passion for their craft. The iconic music and visuals are a big part of that
@@johnkillingsworth5135 If you really liked playing ret, I hope you played wod, because that was the best iteration of ret pala in the history of the game, imo. Legion wasn't even close, and I know people like to circlejerk that one out.
@@retro3856 Yes but literaly every paladin in the game having it was a mistake and diminished the interest of players to get it, and made it less cool.
@@archdruidbookwalter951 Yeah it was great. I didn't even play in vanilla through Wrath and I was still cheering with my friend alongside the crowd when it appeared on the Legion reveal.
As a ret paladin this is 100% accurate. We cleans the lands with our weapons and abilities given to us by the blessed light. And we will bring down wrath on those who shun the light.
My favorite thing about these videos is that the straddle the line between shitposts and legitimately epic. The Frostmourne and Patrick the Pure videos are so ridiculously well-done that it's impossible to not feel even a little hype!
@@stu.chainz Zack asmon is basically a friend for a lot of people online, doesnt mean everyone has to be into mmo's like he is u can still love his content duh
I can tell you if you played the game and knew lore, it would be 10x more epic, just imagine that. Before the wings popped I was expecting it to happen.
@@stu.chainz not OP, but asmongold is basically my source of gaming, and sometimes not even just gaming, news. I can't stand reading news myself because it's deathly boring and i have to look for it. By following asmon i just get a ton of updates on relevant stuff in my sub box that's easy for me to consume. Plus asmon's react content is very entertaining! I can't stand watching his gameplay though, it feels so incredibly fake.
@@stu.chainz I don't like wow or every watch him play it outside of his mount tournaments maybe. Tbh I don't play mmo in general. He's just a fun guy to watch. Love his fromsoft series and I watch the ff14 story through him cause that actually seems pretty interesting but I'm too lazy to play it lol.
ironically, the reason that it was kinda epic is that the person who created it understand's WoW's aesthetic and vibe better than Blizzard seems to. WoW has a lot of really epic, cool shit in its lore.
Oh I recognize the music of Laurence the First Vicar from Bloodborne LMAO. At 1:00 EDIT: and now music of Oceiros The Consumed King kicks in at 6:00 Also, Dark Souls 3 main menu music at 8:13
just when you thought they couldnt get any less creative than they did with Demon Hunters, they bring out Dragon Evokers... that dont even look like Dragons, they look like DragQueens.
The warrior one would be like a duel I did versus a mage. First you raid and top dps pve in a clasic raid in full epics. Then you duel a green greared level 59 mage and spend the whole duel frozen to the ground, slowly dying to frostbolts, while that almost one-shottable mage never comes in reach. Then again, warrior rooted has been done I guess. What more is there to it?
I actually thought a lot about what specs could they add if they decided to do that. I thought about dual wield or casters paladins, tank shamans, holy dps priest.
i hope the creater is geting hired and aid handsomely because not only is his editing skills amazing mathcing visual with music but also his imagination is off the charts
I thought it was super wholesome how genuinely happy and excited McCool was after watching this video. I'm Illidari for life but always thought Pallys were super cool. Also Ashbringer is top 3 coolest weapons in the game imo
"This is ho Paladins really imagine themselves. That's what's so sad about it. They really think this is what they are. But actually they are just Patrick!" Cries in Esfand 0:24
awesome that some guy in a basement can make such good cinematics/art when blizzard cant even produce the same quality or feels anymore. Like this literally brings back the feelings of paladins or deathknights(the other one lol)
If they did another wow movie, i would want it to have focus on a paladin. They are badass. Rogue, warrior and hunter are all regular people with no actual magic(other than a few abilities but its not a focus of the class) Like a knights of the silverhand movie or something would be cool.
ugh the music makes me so nostalgic for wow. its like an old friend who's just not the same anymore, in and out of jail. you have fond memories from high school but you don't talk anymore.
"This is what Paladins believe" no, this is what they realistically would be if Blizzard was consistent. Warriors would be a starting class, levels 1-10 (MAYBE 15), and Paladin would be a prestige class. Warriors would never be more than mooks in-universe, there is no way they would have the strength, speed, senses and HP to compete, never mind special super snowflake abilities like deflect and reflect magic without something supernatural. Every other class gets a supernatural gimmick or companion beast, even rogues use shadow magic, but we're supposed to believe warriors match literal divinely empowered supermen and literal gods with 'mad skillz''. That is literally the argument. Every paladin in the lore was a warrior or priest first, or both, and the Light empowerment was a big deal, it basically took a bunch of priests to empower one warrior to become a Paladin. There is no way Uther, Saidan, Arthas or Mograine don't know all the stances and maneuvers and whatever other skills warriors get in the game, and every other Paladin in the game would need to have top warrior skills before the Church or the Silver Hand would bother investing in that kind of ritual. Death knight would realistically be treated the same way. Thanks to gameplay and story segregation, warriors are the literal mary sues of WoW - they only exist because Blizzard warps the universe so it denies magic deflection and weapon skills and everything else that various other classes should definitely have as well. And the inflated HP of course, Paladins have an excuse because the Light heals and empowers them, but 'mad skills' make a warrior capable of tanking nuclear fire blasts just because.
In wrath, I was destroying AB as full holy in tank gear. It was the most amazing thing in the world. That was the most amazing time I had . Like 50-60k hp, 20k int ... I was holy shocking TF out of ally ... and the straight INT stacking with the mp5 at the time was HOLY BUCKETS level of fun. Maaan good times lmfao.. those winged holy shocks were like going super saiyain
I agree about the dragon class should have a tank spec. I mean isn't dragon scale damn near the same thing as plate armor? And honestly when it comes to the mages I would really like to see them do something like maybe with an Air spec, and give them the ability to turn into a bird like khadgar. And yes I know it's his staff that allows him to turn into a crow or a raven whatever he is. I'm just saying it would be cool to be able to do it as part of the spec
Healers DH is something i wanted since DH release, just rip soul shards off enemies and heal your allies with them or something. Evoker should of had a black dragon aspect tank spec.
No...we are not just patrick. We are the feeling in your heart. Healing but killing.

"they should make videos like these for the character creation screen" tbh, for vanilla and most expansions the intro movie for the game was pretty much this.
Holy shit I've been missing this interaction with Asmon and McCool, 💓really brought a smile to my face and made my day a lot better 🙂 Edits attributed to it too, fuckin' sick. Raft was cool too.
Patrick's connection to the light was so strong he turned duskwood back into brightwood. As it was before the curse of Karazhan fell upon it.
Lmao, no clue why no one else liked this.
He turned duskwood back into morningwood.
"This is how paladins think they actually are, but actually they're just Patrick."

So true.

I don't see the negatives

Actually hilarious

True, true, true, I miss the feeling of playing the paladin in Vanilla, BC, Wrath and well...the immersive Paladin experience faded over the years and I miss it so much.
Also give credit to the incredible music both from warcraft and from software stuff... Music is a really big deal in what you feel!
Probably because it reminds us of a time when wow devs actually had clarity of vision and genuine passion for their craft. The iconic music and visuals are a big part of that
Because WoW is content and a product. This guy is doing this because he is motivated to for reasons beyond a paycheck

"Patrick, The Pure (The Sacrifice)" unironically better then anything in shadowlands.
And bfa
Or BfA
It makes me want to play the game more than anything they've ever done since MoP
Shoot, some of the early machinama stuff was amazing. Tales of the Past 2 was great, one of the best Ashbringer fan movies -- and then they made a 3.
To be fair, the Kyrians were decent. UwU
Tossing The Ashbringer to the Lady of the Lake had me in tears.
In both way
That was the zephyr blade.
So few people are going to get that reference
Patrick is fulfilling the class fantasy a thousand times better than the blizz does
You know wow is dying when 2 people have more imagination and creativity than 100 people at blizzard....
Thats the reason why i play on private servers now.
They actually care for the game.
@Bloggers considering the current WoW feels like a slog compared to older stuff I can't really blame them.
I miss pre legion where the Ashbringer was actually a really loved NPC item in WoW and actually had story significance.
It still did in legion I’d argue the plot got it was even MORE important
Legion made it cool to upgrade and wield the Ashbringer.
But we decided to trade it in for Azerite
@@retro3856 Yes but literaly every paladin in the game having it was a mistake and diminished the interest of players to get it, and made it less cool.

Great to see the enthusiasm, now this requires to be implemented into our reality because the dark has been winning for too damn long.
I don't even play WoW but I know that Patrick, The Pure is one of the most central characters that changed the entire plot of WoW.
Patrick really givin off the Earthworm Jim vibes here.
Nailed it, this is Earthworm Jim fantasy play.
The Ashbringer. Basically, a nuke. Power of the Sun.
Frostmourne. Basically, Dairy Queen. Power of a Brain Freeze.
My favorite thing about these videos is that the straddle the line between shitposts and legitimately epic. The Frostmourne and Patrick the Pure videos are so ridiculously well-done that it's impossible to not feel even a little hype!
Patrick lookin fine with the Ashbringer and outfit ngl
Pathick always fine
Patrick the Pure
Unironicaly this is the best name for a paladin ... next to Alladin the Paladin
😂
I think Aladeen the Paladeen would be a great name. (Admiral General Aladeen from The Dictator.)
Alladin the Rogue would be more appropriate
@@Carpatouille how exactly ?
I am not a dick ... just curious ,because it feels weird
@@ipsyc Because rogues are thieves, if you know what I mean
Bruh these were so well made that I completely forgot I was watching Patrick Star as a Paladin and a Death Knight. 🤣
The owl in the frostmourne one still had more plot relevance than Baine in the Shadowlands.

We paladins are just like that , awesome warriors of the light
And this is all happening underwater. Paladins truly are powerful.
Back in MoP I wanted a Warlock Tank. Have them basically puppeteer the Void Lord. We need more tank choices
More healers would be nice too! At least a Ranger healer would be cool.
@@The_Babe I mean aren't all healers ranged?
Old comment but SoD has warlock tanks!
Better than what blizzard has produced for a long time..
just when you thought they couldnt get any less creative than they did with Demon Hunters, they bring out Dragon Evokers... that dont even look like Dragons, they look like DragQueens.
I wish it made it into editing but asmon finding McConnell in game RPing Patrick was hysterical
Those are the coolest Paladin videos I’ve ever seen. Better than anything from Blizzard.
Haven't played WoW in ages, still kinda fun to reminisce about how cool it could have been.
As a Paladin main, I confirmed this is what we are.
This why you never mess with McConnell.
This is literally Patrick if he became the Elden Lord.
7:07
Damn, I don't remember Paladin's LB3 being that strong.
Madr me choke on my milk xD
Maybe they could learn a thing or two from the paladins in Eorzea. Imagine having Confiteor in WoW!

A healer mage that would use time to rewind your wounds. And don't tell me that's not cool af
@@velukuzusama4224 Apparently this is the healing spec of the new dragins or so people think cause its linked to bronze i guess.

I swear this is what runs through patricks head on a daily basis due to how childish he is, damn good animation though
You may call Patrick the Pure stupid, but never dumb. For he speaks to the soul.
I think that wings should grant the paladin 15-30% increased move speed + Immunity to Stuns, Slows and Snares.
Patrick was the chosen one..
I thought it was super wholesome how genuinely happy and excited McCool was after watching this video. I'm Illidari for life but always thought Pallys were super cool. Also Ashbringer is top 3 coolest weapons in the game imo
