I still remember the day this released. I was just sitting at home, on my laptop. It was after school, and I'd finished all of my work for the day so I was just relaxing, playing WoW and talking with my buddies about how awesome Wrath was going to be. They'd already started playing and I hadn't even pre-ordered the expansion, so I was just running around leveling. My dad walks in, home from work, and comes right into the den where I was hanging out with my brother and shows me a bag. Inside was the white box, the physical copy of the expansion. I couldn't believe it. I didn't think he'd pre-ordered it for me, or that he was even aware it was out, but he knew I absolutely loved WoW and bought the expansion for me. I spent the entire night playing before I had to go to bed for school the next day, but even in the morning I woke up early enough that I could continue playing.
If memory serves me right, they hired one of the fans who made machinima like this to be head of in game cinematics or something. I may be partly wrong, but pretty sure that happened.
They actually hired several guys during vanilla/BC time frame who created some decent fan made videos with this exact style. I have no idea how theyre doing now but they did a lot of the cutscenes or promo's you would see leading up to WOTLK for sure.
"So come then you heroes. Come in all your power and glory. For in the final hour, all must serve the one, true king." So awesome, even all these years later.
The best times of my gaming career. Nothing will ever feel the same as entering Northrend through the Howling Fjord for the first time. After spending so long in the demon-tainted Outland, you could almost feel a fresh, cool breeze of air.
New Dances 2023 Wrath of The Lich King Deluxe Edition - $69.99 comes with unique Frostblood Saronite armored flying mount and North Pass to Level 68 (Cannot be used for Death Knights)
This still gives me chills down my spine. So damn good. Damn shame Arthas' original voice actor quit. It would have been epic if he continued to have lend his voice to the Lich King. :(
+thewalrus45 The first thing testers did with the Dance studio was make sexual poses so Blizzard scrapped the idea. They didn't want that kind of thing in WoW.
***** early S5 was super OP, melee cleaves, then it all "evolved" into harry potters. However, as a Holy Pally, it was all swell for the most part ^^ Healing was fine for the most part too, Dudus might had few issues afaik.
It's pretty amazing that the entire opening part of this trailer takes place just in Howling Fjord. Really shows how enormous each zone in this expansion was.
I thought this was this coolest thing ever when I first saw it. When WOTLK came out, I couldn't wait until I got home. I had so much anxiety when it started downloading, it took forever but I was the happiest little turd in the world. :)
Oh yes, two friends of mine received their discs a day early. I remember visiting one of them in the morning the next day before school, just so I could get a look at that sweet sweet death knight. There was a solemn feeling that whole day while our whole group of friends impatiently waited for school to be over for the day. We must've been 12 back then. Those were the days, haha
I really liked how the downloader gave you the story for the Human and Undead campaigns from Warcraft 3. Gave you something to read while everything installed.
Ahh, memories. I remember all the hipe when they released this teaser at blizzcon. Everybody agreed it was going to be awesome and people didn't only complain about everything (like nowdays)...
Jake Long oh man people complained like no other... The forums were flooded with QQ. All these years later the same people say it was the best expansion.
@@marcellowheeler88 well its easy to to change your mind when you saw what came out later lol. though if id have to rank them i would say wrath (peak classic wow) + MOP (peak modern wow) > bc > legion/vanilla > cata > wod > bfa
god if i could just even feel a percentage of the excitement i had for this, for any other game... the amount of years i would take off my soul just to have that feeling again...
I wish that to become a Death Knight, your main had to be sacrificed in a way such as this, where you are put in a no-win scenario against the Lich King's army, you eventually die, but get revived as a Death Knight. I know that people would be all sad about losing their main, but it really is how it should be, since its not a level 1 newbie, its a fallen hero.
Medicine Melancholy my paladin (total coincidence) was actually deleted to make my DK because I wanted the name my paladin had for my death knight, in a way he did die and come back as a death knight lol. Mind you this was back in wrath and I had that paladin throughout BC. was worth it though as pally was not my main at the time
If death knights ended up being like the SWG Jedis, that would have been amazing. I still mained a DK in wotlk, and would gladly sacrafice a toon to main one again if thats how it worked.
I disagree.... WotLK was the beginning of the downfall to me... Burning Crusade was the best expansion for me... but nothing will ever compare to the vanilla wow experience... ever
sukiesoya Join Dalaran WoW, awesome private server i'm leveling on now, its a pvp server, but...everything works 100 percent, im level 19 druid, and having a blast.
This was the best reveal trailer by far, we knew very little of arthas continuing story or northred at the time. And this music, with his actual voice (not the lich king's voice) brings up that nostalgic chill of anticipation.
Your upset that you where not able to watch as you helplessly murdered the innocent, destroyed much of the beauty on azzeroth, and be one of the main forces taking down life as you knew it. I understand its a game and the mechanics are cool but you have to understand there would be no 3rd faction and if there was it would be a DK exclusive faction so no healers would be available and even if they added one we would have 0 fun after a year or 2, and then back to lore wise the faction would crumble after the death of the lich king or the lich king would live and then destroy the world ending WoW. To be honest im kinda glad we didnt get a 3rd faction and I hope we never do.
Eh, the healer part is not really a problem, Lich King ha all kinds of humanoids on his side, they had healers, then we just should get new races to play as. So that's not really a problem. And yes that would be fun, be the bad guys for once, the closest we get to bad guys might be the Warlock, lore wise, or the Death Knight. And yes, then Blizzard would have to make so the Lich King wins the battle at Northrend. It would be fun as a champion of evil, and do quests and wreak havoc upon Azeroth. And then making the next expansion a follow up where the remaining forces of good, do a last battle where they would kill the Lich King or something like that. But that would have Blizzard to change too much about the game.
Than Blizzard would recreate all the zones so DKs can walk there and quest there. 2 different ICCs; one were the LK survives and the other one were he dies. And Blizzard need to add ALOT of new quests just so DKs can enjoy the game.
I would just like to point out the only "destructible" buildings we got were the towers in Ulduar... and Siege Weapons were also in Ulduar... so they didn't quite deliver on that one.
goran77ish Are you going to justify Wintergrasp's "walls" when they announced destructible buildings? Its a fair observation that I can admit slipped my mind. But if they're going to make something destructible make it a bit more exciting than towers and walls
Bloodstainer You got two BG with siege engines to. Not relly popular but you got it. I agree with you basicly, but they implanted more. And, as PvE player, that was nothing.
Ste Steo I just moved on I guess. My guild was disbanded and I lost touch with them. I will admit that sometimes I do feel like going back, but it would only be for nostalgia’s sake. Also, I’m not a teenager anymore and I can’t afford to spend 8 hours in a raid :S.
Ste Steo bah, don’t. It’s just your hobby, everybody’s got one. Anyone who tells you otherwise probably spends a lot of time doing something stupid and probably don’t even realize it.
So yes or no? I know they're both undead, but they are technically alive and thinking is what I mean but are also technically dead, so I'm kinda confused.
@K King Not saying it would happen, but would be cool. I don't think that idea is as far fetched such as making the game an entirely progressive game from Classic up to BFA. I mean heck, this idea isn't that bad either. But again, who knows if they would or wouldn't do it. It's all just wishful thinking at the moment.
I remember being my freshman year of high school when this came. I was going through a lul period of playing. Was at orientation and saw my one friend that played. Asked him about and he said without a doubt he’s buyin the expansion. From that moment on I geared. Having NOOOO idea that I was about to experience the greatest gaming experience of my lifetime. God I miss this expansion and the good old days of. Wotlk
If u pay attention, the video starts with Arthas voice, in the end it changes to a mixed between his and Ner'zhul.. he loses sanity over time, in the end the Arthas we once knew became this monster, and we alll loved it! *-*
Its ridiculous to think that Blizzard will redo all the expansions , People asked for vanilla for a long time so Blizzard came with wow classic and thats it. Nothing more nothing less
Cloonie14 I agree man, I'm sad to admit but after watching this again I can't even be excited for Legion. It just feels like Blizzard used to care, invest and put so much more soul into the first expansions and now they're just making them for the sake of it.
Back when Blizzard used real ingame models for their cinematics. Wrath of The Lich King is when the main Warcraft universe that began 12 years ago (by 2008) ended, when Arthas was defeated. What came after was the extended universe, like in Star Wars with the comics, games, and the series.
Can't wait to play WoTLK Classic in 2022
In a year or 2.
are they going to do that? like run the game all over again on retail servers?

*"that guy" trigger warning*
This is not a cinematic, just a trailer made on game engine. Cinematics are fully CG

how bout you come back now?
I like how the paladin turned death kinght it wearing hunter armor.
Looks pretty good if you ask me

This was the pinnacle of Blizzard. This was the pinnacle of all games period
Lol sure....😂
Destructible buildings.. yeah.. sure..
Hey! One battleground and one raid counts!
Wintergrasp, Strand of the Ancients, Isle of Conquest & Ulduar.
Don't forget Ensidia cheating on Lich King with saronite bombs dealing siege damage to the boss encounter platform kappa.

No, I just got something in my eyes...
Oh god, the nostalgia is too much.
now experience it again 7 years later
It's insane how much I miss this expansion.

By far and away the best expansion of any video game ever created, no game will ever top the experience I had with Wrath of the Lich King.

Sounds exactly like what we will do on the Broken Isles.

Man... the good old days...
"You either die the hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain." Is it that neither or both happened to Arthas?

So yes or no? I know they're both undead, but they are technically alive and thinking is what I mean but are also technically dead, so I'm kinda confused.

Its ridiculous to think that Blizzard will redo all the expansions , People asked for vanilla for a long time so Blizzard came with wow classic and thats it.
Nothing more nothing less
Amazing trailer.. this trailer tells you such as story about Arthas have been through
The golden age of WoW
02:37 the Arthas voice you hear in the Shadowlands when Anduin is being influenced by his Mourneblade.
The sword is literally Arthas talking to him.
Hands down my favorite expansion..neck and neck with TBC. Waiting for Blizz to release TBC/WotLK Classic!!!
I like how early DK was just wearing hunter recolors.
LedosKell lmao
There it is dude.
2:31 We were all waiting for this one.
Thank you UA-cam algorithm. 9 years later.
The writer and sound editor did an amazing job on this
NEW DANCES OMG
yeah! I cant wait!
yeah! I'm also waiting for those dogfights in wintergrasp they showed on the backside of the case
And "new quests", like, really?
where is the new dances...
are*
That arthas voice ! They should have kept it.
0:08 AMAZING MUSIC
name ?
One of the most nostalgic trailers for me... I just like Kel'Thuzad's "I was once like you..." bit...
UA-cam recoments are getting better evryday 10/10
I think lich king was my favorite expansion, probably because of all my interest in the lore.
Watching this right after the Legion reveal. This is what gives me the real goosebumbs.
Cloonie14 I agree man, I'm sad to admit but after watching this again I can't even be excited for Legion. It just feels like Blizzard used to care, invest and put so much more soul into the first expansions and now they're just making them for the sake of it.
@@jasonhallneuroverse And Legion turned out to be the best expansion since WotLK.
hey blizz its been 6 years, where are my new dances!?

Legit iconic music.
Back when Blizzard used real ingame models for their cinematics.
Wrath of The Lich King is when the main Warcraft universe that began 12 years ago (by 2008) ended, when Arthas was defeated. What came after was the extended universe, like in Star Wars with the comics, games, and the series.
