One correction: You do get to see Deathwing's human form in another quest. It's a questline in the Badlands to retrieve and cleanse one of the last Balck dragonflight eggs (Wrathion). One of the red dragons (in a night elf form) tends to the egg when Ol' lockjaw shows up. He kills her and the destroys the egg, but leaves us alive. We later find a note where the dragon mom explains that this was a ruse to throw DW off the trail. She sacrificed herself and one of her eggs to give this black egg a chance to live uncorrupted.

@RazanaArcclaw

2 жыл бұрын

I am pretty sure you never see him in human form during that questline. Also the dragon takes a goblin form not a night elf.

Another thing that was cut in Cataclysm was the original storyline for the goblin. In the beta, it was implied that it was your goblin character that indirectly caused the fall of kezan (through a game of footbomb) hence why Gallywix had lines in the lost isle where he would blame the player's character for causing this mess. It was then scrapped to have Deathwing randomly fly in and destroy Kezan.

@Timmothy_plays

2 жыл бұрын

Hell, a way to meet in-between would be for the Player to kick the game winning footbomb that hits Deathwing as he is flying by, and because of that he thinks that the Goblins are attacking him so he then causes the eruption of Kezan in retaliation.

Cata is that one expansion where I can listen to all the criticism and still confidently say, "yeah, I, don't care." I just, love, WoW. I was raised on this game. My Dad bought it in 2005, and the first expansion drop that I was conscious of, was Cataclysm. Sure, WotLK came out while I was little, so did TBC, but Cataclysm was the one that caught me while I was getting into gaming. Nights spent farming gold for my brother or my dad, or flying them to a certain spot in Northrend, because they didn't have the flight path, picking up quests, leveling their characters while my Dad made dinner, or my brother wanted to play something else on the Xbox but didn't want to lose out on the grind. Wrath was my introduction, Catacylsm was my time to appreciate WoW, independent of my brother and my dad's characters. Cata's when I made my first character, or, well, my Dad gave me a character, a Dranei Warrior. I still want to transfer him over to my account, just haven't gotten around to it. But, I'm digressing. Cata is just, a special thing for me. I love WoW, more than I should, given all that Blizzard's done in terms of the game, not even counting their real world controversies, but, I *love* WoW. I tried to put it down after the allegations came out, but I just, couldn't. I fucking cried after putting that icon in the trashcan, okay? Couldn't stay away from it for more than two weeks. Cata's always gonna have that place for me. Even if a bunch of it was cut, I still love what we got. Just, do. Unconditionally.

True Cata was indeed revolutionary at the time, it was a WotLK+, a better WotLK in every way, except it had one fewer raid tiers. The class design was brought to a whole new level and Cata still has the best class design, followed by WoD and SL. The Dungeon and Raid boss mechanics were brought to a new level, much more deep and complex than TBC/WotLK. All the QoL improvements and polishing of all of WotLKs unpolsihed systems. The Molten Front was great. The revamped 1-60 was excellent at the time. Tier 11 and Tier 12 are two of the best raid tiers of all time. Everything was just right and they just needed to add more content to it. That 4.1 content draught was annoying and the 4.3 content draught as well, it was also the first expansion to have only 3x raid tiers and Tier12 was cut in half, but at least the Firelands was epic.

Always felt like Cataclysm was the first bad expansion for WoW. And I think I see why - so many big cool ideas, but not enough time to work on them all, especially with the world revamp. Blizzard really needed to plan out WotLK post-ICC more. If they had done so, they could have avoided the giant content gap between Ruby Sanctum and Cata, and maybe had more time to work on Cata. Actually, that's been a problem since WotLK. They've underestimated how long it's going to take them to finish expansions for over a decade now, and never have enough content to cover the time gap.

Right after Ulduar patch, WoW's lead designer since launch, Jeff Kaplan (as well as a siginificant portion of WoW's old team) was taken to work on a new "next-gen" MMO (the "Titan" project). Long story short: it would've been an MMO- FPS**** set in Overwatch's universe, but the logistics of making an FPS work on such a massive scale didn't pan out. So, Overwatch was salvaged from Titan's corpse; and WoW has been robbed of it's original talent (the "special sauce", if you will) ever since. It may not be a coincidence that right after merging w/ Activision, Blizzard decided to try to make a second hit MMO when they already had the most successful MMO ever made. Greed? An interesting factoid: in a 2017 AMA Jeff said he left the WoW team because it left him "fatigued"... but why then work on what's supposed to be the next biggest MMO ever?

wouldnt say that but its not the worst. Im sure people would have enjoyed it if they had actually implemented the underwater combat changes instead of just going with swim like usual and space jump on the ocean floor.

Cata was rushed. So much was left on the cutting room floor since Wrath was much smaller than originally planned and/or Cata was probably intended to be WoW2. Imo, they wanted Wrath to go on for 3 years or more then release Cata with at least most of this stuff. However, making a mega expansion is probably not the best idea since people will just lose interest until the end then just do all of the content then. This was already happening with TBC in 2008 and so they had to make Wrath a 2 year expansion and thus didn't have the time to fully develop everything they had planned for Cata. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to see a Wrath+ or Cata+ come out of the Classic project.

hey hiru why dont you make a tier list of every boss in raids and dungeons and then make a tier list of every dungeon and raid as a whole? that could be really neat and i love your input on things!

Great video, I truly admire the work you guys put into this. However, I believe I've caught a slight mistake. Nothing out of the ordinary, but figured I'd mention it anyway. At 4:05, you mention the Deathwing human model was nowhere else seen in-game. That is partially true, as it's the only time we see Deathwing himself in his human form. The model, however, is also used for a rare in Highmountain named "Obsidian Deathwarder". The devs have also added some kind of filter over it, to make it appear more like a golem.

Idk why people hated vash'jir i think it was one of the most unique zones ever made, i always loved questing there. The music made it even better.

Ah, I loved Vashj'ir. I can understand why other people didn't, but still, the whole experience was one of the best I ever had in WoW.

Now i get why deathwing emerged from a mountain in the cinematic

Well, at least Cataclysm still has a better storyline than Shadowlands, even with this much cut content.

even still, i loved cata a lot and firelands has been my favorite raid since it came out.

That last point is the best point. I still remember not understanding what the point was in Cata. Are the villains the twilights hammer? What do the elements have to do with it? Years later playing back through some of the quest lines for achievements it all started to make since. The idea of the elemental planes were great. But then the raids from cata didn’t really follow the theme outside one or two.

I love the music you always play in the background of your videos. can you tell me what it is?

Literally everything that was cut sounds really good or mostly good. I've been an og player on Skywall and finally thinking we would get some representation in the game made me hype. Now skywall doesn't exist anymore due to merges. Also proffesions having a massive part of reforging would've been really good, other than a belt socket what was it ever good for? No like seriously I've been a blacksmith for a long time and the proffesion has been stupid useless for years.

Shout out to my boi Hayven, RIP, you were a legend mate

In BC, Magister’s Terrace had a mechanic that was just like swimming underwater. It had been done before.

"With no timeframe given and it being over 10 years later, I am pretty sure they scrapped the idea" Lines that aged horribly

I miss the titans and their lore too... now its all about the generic knockoff thanos with a shiny chest ball and his obedient and not obedient sidekick sally.

I prefer to think of them as Team Rocket, unfortunately James was killed leaving only the boss and Jesse.

Always forget how cool glyphs are And that there are never any new ones

I wonder, if they released all the cut content from all the past expansions as 1 expansion; would it be fun? It would have you revisiting older areas to try out new dungeons, raids, new locations, etc.. Or would it be more of a pain to travel to all these places you've been to, just to try out the new stuff? Because there is so much stuff cut from wow, to just scrap it would be a waste.

'hi........ bye........' loved it :D

Actually loved cata as it was, no crazy grinding, no borrowed power, no choreghast,no pvp gear gated by rating i had tons of fun on it.

Scrapped Incubi: HELLO FROM THE FUTURE

and now we are getting our incubi hehe

Cataclysm golden times for Ele and Ench Shaman, Combat rogue.

man..... Archaeology could have been so great, but too bad it had basically effort put into it after MoP

somehow almost all the games I like and their cut content are the most interesting things ever

"It's nothing like the Nexus" but it is (geometrically and design-wise) like Azjol-Nerub? It's like with every expac there's an entire selection of things they want to do and then after looking at the stuff they outline they decide what they'll actually do. It's just that at the end of the day, the grass is always greener on the other side. Reforging didn't last long.

I miss cataclysm holy paladins and disc priests

Heroic dungeons in Cata to this day are the most fun I’ve had doing dungeons since starting WoW

Man I remember this Blizzcon. I watched it at a friends home, we were eating pizza and drinking beer. Everything was so cool. I wish they would have delivered everything, I would have waited for some months more with no problems.

I absolutely loved the harrison jones quest line tho. Kinda wish they did more pop culture parody quests

Just shows houch Blizzard overpromises and under delivers.

The hype around cata was unreal. It honestly was a great expansion for the first two patches. I really loved cata, but I’m not sure I’d go back and play it again

So they were going for what rift had done with their skill trees where they're very flexible with which paths you can take?

Honestly I thought that the Twilight Cult part, including the events in the comic in Ahn'Qiraj could have been an expansion together with the events of Stormrage in the Emerald Dream. Both storylines work together since they are centered in the Old Gods, neither storyline is directly about the "end of the world" giving the story a bit of time to rest instead of the SWP into Wrath into Cata which was kind of exhausting narratively.
