@YuyuHakurei

Well it is more that High Elves were always part of the Alliance. So their lore was tying elves to human society with a mana core at the center of their city that brought them to an age of magic and technology. Aside from ship designs with their Elven Destroyers they didn't really bring anything else. Once they left the Alliance they no longer had access to the technology they once had. So their culture devolved back into what is natural for High Elves. A magic focused culture. Making them mana addicts was not really planned for much else other than to make drug jokes, but it was what their story eventually became in WC3. WoW just kind of differentiated their architecture for cool points. Since it would be boring if every race had the same building design. Honestly I have a feeling they were probably meant to live in outland and be Kael's elves instead. With how much of their stuff is floating. It matches Outland environmental design more. They probably realized later that they couldn't really do that and tweaked the lore so that they could put the starting zone in the eastern kingdoms location lorewise. Since it's physical location is somewhere in the outland map. xD

LOL campaign paladins are simply epic. And they respected what was said in the books that only Uther was a clergyman, and Tirion, Saidan, and Turalyon were Warriors, and Gavinrad a Knight who all believed in the light; so I would have a joke that some paladins after them would wear Swords and Shields and others the Hammer.

Okay, weird thing to say, but my favorite of this lot is the villager female and high elf female units - In terms of design and animation they look amazing. Fairly happy with the Blood Mage and Footman units as well. Actually all of the high elves/blood elves look pretty cool. Very WoW-ish in design. Not a fan of Jaina's top though - the "Daughter of the Sea" model looks way better IMO. Also, you really notice when looking at them side-by-side, just how vast the difference is: before this video I was like, "Meh, it looks pretty ok", but seeing how much WC3 has aged, it's actually a rather drastic face-lift. Side note: I'm already considering all the ways I can play around with the various character models in the world editor - some of them don't see nearly enough screen-time, considering the effort gone into their design.

W3 was my first encounter with the Warcraft franchise. Had it shared to me on a LAN party we had in school. Great fun, got the game and all it's expansions later on. Amazing to see what they've done with it! Will for sure get a copy and play the AI a bit.

wow huge improvement cool ty for the vids

Now I will never be able to unsee that phenixs attack comes from below it. Damn

Nice to know they're making distinct models for the heroes of each hero class instead of just having one generic model for the whole class but with different paint jobs.

when this town hall, keep and castle finished?

I really like that Antonida's staff has the same model as the one in World of Warcraft that drops from the Lich King.

the high elf buildings look AMAZING!!

Is it just me, or do the wings on most of the flying units look too short?

Looking at this, side to side, I'm actually really conflicted. on one end of the spectrum, i really like the upgrade to the graphics. on the other, i prefer the flashiness of alot of the old effects. (not all of them mind you, some of those effects should have been toned down.) the old edition has a charm to it that i will always love as well. personal preference and all that.

3:30 shows the lack of love that got into reforged. If you look at the classic version of water elemental, you can see its body expanding as it winds up, then reduces as the attack actually happens. Which makes sense since it attacks by removing water from its body. The new models looks really dope but the warcraft soul just isn't there. even the building animation. The new one just has the building slowly exist from transparency, the old you can see pillars rising and shit.

I am sure it is the nostalgia talking, but I still like the way the old models look. I am more excited about the fact that a lot more people will start playing and the online scene will grow.
