Canonically Nobbel is bald and does not wear a hat. Please respect the lore.
Sexist really
Retcons happen
Retcon lore:
Nobbel and asmongold are brothers
He was rewritten by Danuser
@@MasteroGaming how do you know? because they have the same hairstyle?😂
OH. MY. GOD. Actual voice lines for Vereesa? I am stunned!
It feels nice to see noble enjoying the lore once again. For a time mainly SL you could see it in his eyes the disappointment and him trying to make the lore work. Hopefully those days are over.
Yeah, I think we all had that a little bit. It was utter trash.
She has sacrificed everything. *WHAT HAVE YOU GIVEN?*
she sacrifice nothing though
12.99 a month
Illidan is that you?
@@norsegodofawsomess her relationship to her sisters, her son growing up, her home, her family, her planet, her autonomy and life
@pepepicapinto543 her sister have made thier choise as she did her son growing up was both her and turalyon the lich king was inevitable you were either and died or you weren't she has family turalyon arator vareesa all still love her at best you can say was her place in quelthalas but that was unintentional consequence she has literally given nothing outta of choice its just poor story writing.
Animated series with the Cinematic team of Blizz would be so amazing. Warcraft, Arthas, Windrunner Family, everything!
It would be so cool, and if they want easy money i am pretty sure all of us would love to see that.
This was a glorious animation. Vereesa sadly is ill treated. Always the victim, rarely giving her a win. Lost her family, lost her home, got a new family and a new home, lost her partner, her sister tried to convince them to take poison to join the Undead, and soon, her home again. They need to give that woman a break!
Vereesa was always more or less a side character. She only became relevant, because of her novel, Day of the Dragon. Since her in- game introduction, she's been the Alliance representative in Dalaran, and the un- official leader of the high elf exiles.
Many Alliance high elf supporters want her as their racial leader, but she's only the leader of the Silver Covenant, a militant faction of high elves living in Dalaran. But then again, the void elves were an even smaller group during their unlock quest.
Vereesa is also hated among blood elf players for her active role in the Purge of Dalaran. A fair point, given most of the killings were done by the Silver Covenant. But Sylvanas was hated by Alliance AND Horde players alike during BfA and Shadowlands, yet she still had a sizable number of fans.
While my blood elf side is still a bit mad at Vereesa for her actions in Mop, I do agree she (and her sons) needs a bit more character development. The War Within could be the time, but she hasn't showed up yet in the Beta, which means they're probably saving her for Midnight. They already teased Midnight will be about "bringing the elven tribes together", so this could be Vereesa's time to shine as the "high elf leader". There's already speculation about the Horde getting the Amani trolls as an allied race, so this could be the time to give the Alliance the high elves they actually wanted, with paladins (or just give the void elves paladins and more hairstyles).
@stormstrider1990 To be fair in the eyes of the high elves the blood elves are traitors who broke the oath they made with the first kingdom of man for thier protection against the trolls.
Alleria is proper coping on this one tbh.
Like, thinking she could have done anything about Sylvanas and that Turalyon hates her are both utter crap.
I took this a bit as Xal'atath/the whispers are already getting to her, making her think really bad thoughts.
Also, Tyralyon is so damn well voice acted, man. I love him.
I agree that Blizz needs an animated series.
Someone like Titmouse though would be amazing doing it, IMO (but then I'm CR VM biased)
I mean ... Travis Willingham has CR CEO/LOVM writer/Metapigeon producer cred, and they DID play this at their break last week. Its possible the networking can make something happen.
@@jare3959 some of the players in CR also lent their voices to WoW. so i am not surprised they played this amazing ish during their break-
Blizzard seriously needs to do a animated series like this with Alleria one.
No no no no... Turalyon DID understand... FFS! The point was that EVEN if he was afraid of the effects of the Void he STILL SUPPORTED HER even against Xe'ra!
I Love how this video makes CANON< the fact that Silvermoon used to be BLUE THEMED, until Kael'thas joined the Horde and pushed that whole BLOOD angle. That's when it was redecorated to all red... You can see the remnants of that decor in the Silver Covenant areas of Northrend.
Kael didn't join the Horde, he joined Illidan and later the Legion. It was Lor'themar that joined the Horde, at Sylvanas's urging. That was years after they'd already assumed the new blood elf identity.
Illidan would love Alleria with the I have sacrificed everything quote!
12:50 I think that NPC was Shandris and Vereesa asked her to search for her sister, or at least that's how I remember it
Alone. It is said that those of our kind suffer, separated from the glory of the Khala. But none of us are ever truly alone. For our warrior hearts are bound by honor. Tradition. Battle is waged in the name of the many! The brave, who generation after generation, choose the mantle of ...Dark Templar.
20:16 you could even say she is a champion of Azeroth which would make her a player character, if we start added the Hero’s of wow to the champions of Azeroth list (with the 21 ish players made up of the different class spec combos) the champions are going to be a full on army in their own right.
i hate her new look. especially since there is no in-between look. for someone who doesn't know anything about wow, if you show him a side-by-side picture with the old look and the new one, he will think they are different characters. there is no consistency between the old look and the new one. hell. the tattoos are on the other arm now... that design might have worked on its own for a new character but as a new Alleria design it's really bad
Illidan sacrifices himself: Betrayer
Alleria sacrifices herself: Girl Boss
um Illidan was a boy Boss btw
Alleria was imprisoned by Xe'ra tf you mean
Their relationship in the Shadow’s rising book is cool as well. Sort of a inquisitor vibe
You just know that Vereesa is getting vaulted and forgotten now that Alleria has stolen her color scheme.
Feel like with her determination to sacrifice herself for the world she’ll likely get her wish at the end of WW, setting the stage for Vareesa to step up and make her sacrifice count next expansion.
~ The hour of her third death will usher their coming ~
Yep, just an animated show that covers the events of warcraft 1, 2, and 3 followed by a sequel series that goes over all the important bits from the books and finally a story mode in WoW that lets you play through all the main plot points. Make sure to bump the game rating up to M and set the show at TV-MA so they can include all the really dark stuff done to and by the orcs, trolls, dragons, undead, elves, and humans.
I really hope they aren't going to rewrite Alleria and Turalyon's relationship to make them distrust each other, because this animated short sure makes it seem that way. They already overcame this issue when they returned to the story at the end of Legion and in A Thousand Years of War. Retreading the same path by changing it to make them more distant would be very disappointing.
Vereesa just being a cameo character for Light knows how long by now is also sad.
I think this is where the distrust started, before it was resolved. I think they just show you this to show new players what's up there and to show old players what she's dealing with in her head.
I wish Blizzard would bring Vereesa in the game story too. The twin sons of Vereesa and Ronin are surely old enough to come tinto the story also. With Dalaran crashing to start TWW, surely they will at least let us know if Vereesa and her sons survived. And Arathor would surely give some thought to the aunt who raised him and his two cousins he grew up with.
I'd have loved for Alleria to change her gear after the fall of Dalaran, that would have caused Vereesa to die. She would have taken her colors, and it would embody her shame
I feel bad for Turalyon, he lost his wife which he loves , I mean they are still talking or whatever but it’s not the same
Alleria ever hear of "The Road to Hell is paved with good intentions"?
Vareesa will.... be forgotten that she is a Windrunner sister with creepy children. Until they kill Alleria and remember they have one more non-fubared human loving elf.
That hat is dope. Also, Shinzo wo Sasageyo
I know that they once struggled with shadow and the light but in Shadows Rising Alleria and Turalyon seemed pretty in tune with each other using the light and void to torture people.... weird that she mentons pushing him away when we haven't really seen that much tension between them to be honest.
Yeah, this is and Vereesa being kinda sidelined were my two grievances with the animated short. I have not read Shadows Rising, but they made it pretty clear in A Thousand Years of War that Turalyon doesn't think of any less of Alleria, even now.
"No matter what happened, he would always trust her. He would always fight for her. And she would do the same for him. He was certain of it. That give him peace."
These are literally the last few sentences of that audio drama. Either they forgot about writing that or didn't care and are taking a different direction now, as they have so often. It really sucks being invested in characters and then having their core dynamic changed without warning.
@@Vahlok_dayowhat I remember is that turalyon loves her no matter what but worried about the void and the 2 forces clash /alleria attracts dark forces, so not safe for them to be close. Maybe in a story she spawned void creatures or forces so was banned from silvermoon?
@@Vahlok_dayo Consistency?! In a Warcraft story!? WHy are you asking for the impossible! Glad Nobel is having fun with this but... it just reeks of some forced drama between Turalyion and Aleria so we can later kill Turalyion. It's just... blehh
We are starting to see a team form of each of the forces of the universe. Alleria:Void, Illidan : Fel, Sylvanas: Death, Turalyon: Light
The look on king Anasterian Sunstrider and his advisors when alleria forced them to aknowleg that the Horde (old one) were attacking the kingdome. Do feel bad for Sylvanas who had tried to warn her people and big sis had to help. And I do feel bad for Vereesa who is more in the shadow than an shadow priest.
Alleria sounds like Illidan. I love it!
illidan 2.0? i am my scars...
I'm wondering when they will be bringing back Sylvanas. I don't think she'll show up in this expansion but I wouldn't doubt her showing up in the next one. The bond they showed between Alleria and Slyvanas makes me think she'll be showing up soon to help Alleria pull herself back from the darkness in some way.
5:46
- Please, animated series!
- No.
Perfect timing
So much sacrifice. I guess now... she IS prepared. 😛
Didn't they in TBC have Arathor speak of visions of seeing his dad dead in a world not Azeroth?
I was looking forward to this!
2:20 I'm curious if that high elf she covered with a sheet was their brother? I read that the Windrunner sisters had a brother who was murdered during one of these attacks on Quel'Thalas, but it's been a while and I don't remember which battle or what his name was. Or has Blizzard just dropped that part as not lore anymore? I hope someone here knows.
Nice thumbnail, Nobbel. Really tried hyping this thing up :b
Aye, an animated series would be amazing. But with Patty Mattson as Sylvanas. She IS the one!
1:58 whets red shirt guy when you need him to remind blizzard there are 3 sisters 😢
Didnt Vereesa die? In uh.. Day of the dragon?
No all 3 sisters are around, only slyvanass died. But the third sister is like forgotten @@Andromedes
They literally show Vareesa in the video.
@@MyUsualComment Lol you guys got whooshed really hard this time.
@@Andromedes Cool
At first glance I thought you drank from a dish soap bottle 😂
The zone where most of this takes place is clearly Eredath, given the strong Void presence.
This is amazing. We are spoiled!
this short is telling me that if the warcraft movie was animated it would have been waaaaaaaaaay better
Not Peggy of the Windrunners 😭😭😭
I got cyberpunk tv show vibe so much
16:00 More like she's driven by sunk cost fallacy. In her mind she's already sacrificed so much, if she doesn't keep sacrificing now then all the others would be meaningless and then where would that leave her? So while yes duty is part of it, the other part is that she's scared that if she doesn't keep going forward like she has been then nothing will have mattered and she sacrificed for nothing. Or something along those lines. Like she's built it up in her head to the point that she can't back down, she has to keep being the one that does all this to protect others, because who is she if she isn't throwing everything away for everyone else?
Everyone upset about Vereesa being sidelined but….
What about my boy Lirath? Where’s he Blizzard? WELL? I WANT MY NON-FIGHTER MUSIC BOY
EDIT: He’s dead.
Anyone notice how Alleria takes off her armour to change into less armour? I know it's a fantasy trope but it's so funny
Whenever i hear "Quel'Thalas. Home." I am like "CJ?"
Turalyon dying would also force Anduin back on the throne, or at least push him to make a decision regarding the leadership of Stormwind/the Alliance.
First time watching this I was crying so hard.
OMG THERE GOING TO BE SYLVANAS COMING BACK to recreate this !!!!
NGL Nobbel is adorable
She is a "soldier"... before sister, wife, mother... that sounds like ego to me, because the sacrifice involved is not only her own, but that of her sister, husband, and son. She is no more heroic than Illidan, perhaps even less so.
i Wish they used a different motivation for Sylvanas to join the jailer and to control death.
After reading the book id understand if her motivation was to get her borther (Lirath) back, if she wanted to use the jailer and maybe be a dubble agent instead of what she was in Shadowlands.
i just want a proper hero blizz why is that so bad
The Warcraft art style is juuust on the border of pure ridiculousness when it comes to bodily form, this is way beyond. 😅
Vareesa is my favorite of the sisters and she is still the only one to not get their own stand alone model.
Hey there! I've been asking Blizzard for a Netflix series for years... I even mentioned this to Christie Golden and some other Blizzard employees directly during Blizzcon 2018. BUT, not animated or live version... they should actually make one with the Hyper realistic CG they use when they anounce new expansions. I know it would take a long time and lots of money to make, but oh man. Imagine a 10 ep per season series with THAT quality!
Oh.... and also... DON'T show us stuff we already know or played through... show us moments like THIS video! Moments we haven't seen or happened only in novels or behind the scenes
THAT would be awesome!!!
Millions would watch it!!!!!
COME ON, BLIZZARD!!! TAKE OUR MONEYYY
oh yeah, she's gonna turn evil.
Definitely an animated series please.
There's a huge book that's three or four books combined that has this and essentially the opening to WOD the FIRST time, pick it up to read when WOD made it relevant and started listening to your videos then...... it's been a bumpy ride
I can't help but feel they retconed Alleria and Turalyon relationship.
So far Turalyon NEVER said that when Alleria embraced the void, their relation was still intact!!!
And now you tell me it was fragile as paper?
You really need to listen to "A thousand years of War" its an audio drama on the World of Warcraft UA-cam page. He had his moment, he did say this, but their relationship, while it did take a "break" so to speak it was more because of Alleria not believing she could fully control her powers and wanting to keep Turalyon safe. She comes back and when Xe'ra the naru and "mother of light" so to speak tries to basically have Alleria killed he stands up for her and Xe'ra settles for imprisoning's her for a short time. Eventually he talks Xe'ra into letting her out because he trusts her. They are in a good spot in their relationship now and can even touch as long as she is not in Void form.
@@ambergarcia7321 Damn A and T are so based, for so many others that would have caused total relationship breakdown into hostility
Alleria has villain's back story if I ever heard one.
Maybe when they do an animated series, they can start from the beginning and add these stories of characters with them, do an Arcane blizz! Shutup and take my money!
Alleria looking HOT
Ngl I feel like they should have kept her color green cuz now she looks like Tyrande.
I feel like this story is more like Deathwing than Illidan.
Can someone explain to me why Blizzard seemingly doesn't want to write anything for Vareesa? And why did Nobbel mention she's a difficult character? Honestly before WotLK when she's at Dalaran I don't think I heard of her, not that into the elf lore
Your videos are a true resort for the mind and soul. Thank you for your talented channel management and amazing content!🕶🍑🍾
finally nobbel!
Your channel is a place where quality always comes first. Keep making us happy with your masterpieces!👢♂️🛸
can you do a lore video Xal'atath I do not understand what she is and where she came from
Who else was waiting for this reaction? 👍
do you reckon the troll jumping at the beginning of the battle is the same troll as seen in one of the loading screens
poor peggy
Shaw How WoW WoW!
Literally Blizz saw Vox Machina and went "Hey let's do that!"
FFS! Is video sound CENSORED!??!?!?!?!
I know thiis isnt about the video but...would jailer empowered sylvanas lose to shadow form alleria i think alleria would blitz her 🤔
Why is Vereesa a difficult character?
I'm really sorry nobbel but im just so distracted by what your wearing. I can't help but picture you break dancing as a member of a boyband and singing pop songs to me. I'm sorry just gonna day dream for a bit buh bye.
Wate! Is void like roids!? =O She roided out!? Wow then i understand why he hates what she become. And Xalatath is basicly saying that she's walking exactly in Sylvana's fotsteps to become JUST like her. And that makes Alleria SO MAD and Xalatath knows that, she knows what to do and say to prevoce Alleria.
Nobble past his prime
First :)
I'm just waiting for Old Soldier style series. these are just lazy.
goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood
Very nice animation and effects and such, mid to boring way of lore/telling her story.. Waaay to much strong female char promotion who doesnt need a family or anything, and ofc would do it all again.. that might be how it is, but ahe could at least said at the wnd that she would have chosen differently or something, or that shes sad about it insteady of walking away for every single event appearing here with her back turned and stone face... Like sooo "cool"..It has also nothing do do with the nee fame and extremely crappy lore there, this is a video of things that has already happened, and people use it to promote the new garbage
sure dude, and let me guess if alleria was a dude you'd be okay with it ?
This is actually an insanely good video and loads of my friends who dont read books or just dont get into lore really appreciate this sort of recap/summary of a character they know a little and love. Alleria is a single minded individual who has been a part of the lore for a very long time, this is her personality. She is a very much strongly pulled by duty type of character and she believes in her choices. Does she have doubt sometimes? sure! However she knows that every step she takes has purpose and she is determined to do what she believes needs to be done to protect the ones she loves. She is much like Illidan in that way, headstrong and willing to do what it takes, whatever the cost. The people that know her and love her understand her. Shes an awesome character.
Is complaining about this game the only thing you're capable of? Is the autism kicking in?
that is some unfortunately choppy animation.
its the kind of animation fantasy cartoons used back in the day.
well maybe a little above it.
Kinda fits though.
@@warllockmasterasd9142 that's fair. I don't want to sound like a hater, so thanks for being nice!
