    it looked good, really good. with a great score over it and great animation. but I still feel its a bit lacking. somehow i was expecting more from it.

    I know its only for an expansion but for the 2 big mmo's releasing cinematics this week. I think WAR has blizzard beat with their cinematic.

    Frost wyrm ;)

    And nope, it wasn't enough. Seriously underwhelmed by the WOTLK cinematic, it still oozes Blizzard quality, but not enough happens at all.

    It just wasn't big enough *sighs*


    ;)


    But seriously compared to the TBC one this is a bit of a let down.

    The video looked good and was nice for the people who played WC3 and know Arthas' backstory and such.

    Unfortunately, 99 out of 100 WoW players will just see him as "Epix Lewt Dizpenzer" and not the fallen hero he once was. Nother nail in Warcraft lore's coffin.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,810 ✭✭✭DRakE


    Isn't the frostwyrm in the trailer an actual named Dragon? Read it on mmo champion i think


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,401 ✭✭✭✭Anti


    thats what i thought.

    Well it could be Sapphiron, but either way its now a Frostwyrm, you wouldnt call the Scourge "Humans"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,172 ✭✭✭Flojo


    Seems the dragon could be Sindragosa the frost queen (frost-wyrm).
    There is a zone in Northrend named after her called Sindragosa's Fall, which is the crater left behind after she was raised by Arthas. She was supposed to be an old blue dragonflight queens, feck all written about her though.

    Christ....

    Please make it class specific Blizzard.... PLEASE

    Warrior/Paladin only tyvm (Oh, and DK)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,560 ✭✭✭Ivan


    You really think Frostmourne would be a drop? I mean, you know it corrupts people and ****... :o

    Wouldnt really work imho.

    Well I really hope if they do put it in, its not just like the Warglaives or Thori'dal

    It needs an epic quest line, and one per server, like the Qiraji Battle tank.

    That would be sweet :D

    I'm sure they'd work someway of ****ting on the lore to make it happen. I mean whats Warcraft without your epix :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 969 ✭✭✭sunzz


    I'd bank on it being a drop, It's the most powerful weapon in the game the masses will want to wield it even if it does **** up the lore, and the more the masses want the more blizz succumbs.

    All i know is i hope its class specific :D

    I'd much rather see the Ashbringer questline brought to a conclusion and made available, Frostmourne being made available to players would be just too ****ing stupid imo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,256 ✭✭✭c0rk3r


    Saw this and the warhammer cinematic trailers yesterday. Wont be getting caught up in either of them. If you want to pass your exams this year and have an active social life let these games slide.


    Heres the warhammer vid. Very impressive

    Aye Warhammer is tempting me so much :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭Schism


    I liked the WoW cinematic, very classy.

    I should really stop browsing these forums, the temptation is too much!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,810 ✭✭✭DRakE


    So.. in Warhammer the evil faction dicks all over the good faction?


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,207 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    In the trailer it was fairly even..until the big guy at the end.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,204 ✭✭✭Kenny_D


    Thought the WotLK trailer look amazing..... then I saw the Warhammer one! I'm really tempted now to get Warhammer based on that trailer alone. I played the closed beta at a very early stage and it was very buggy so I stopped and decided to wait til it was released before I judged it. If its up to a good standard it should be an excellent game


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,810 ✭✭✭DRakE


    lol no it wasnt, all the ally factions hero type people got owned in every scene.. the archer chick would have been smashed by the ice queen, one guy got stabbed thru the heart, dwarf was dead if he wasnt saved.. etc :D
