That's why Gul'dan stole his body and why we had to get it back before he could be resurrected.

Modern WoW has what I've been referring to as "quantum storylines". You can be in one area but have 3 different storylines from 3 different expansions going at the same time, which makes it very confusing to figure out what on earth is suppose to be going on. So the current plan is; play classic, figure out what content is old, and what is new, and why the cat people still don't have voice lines. I got a character to level 50 just in time for shadowlands so when I'm ready I can go through each expansion one at a time and hopefully figure out what on earth is going on to satisfy my massive lore bone lol.

That and Tauren. But there were a lot more trolls and they did a lot more with their time. Actually, of all the 23 races in the game, including Allied Races, only 11 are native to Azeroth. And that's counting the ones that are just subtle offshoots like the slightly shadowy bois that are the void elves. You have the four elves, two trolls, two tauren, goblins, pandaren, and vulpera. So Azeroth (the titan) is definitely a furry. Oh man, looking at that list I realize it's mostly Horde. Pandaren play both sides, but then Horde has 8 and Alliance only has 2 native races and they're the oldest and youngest elves. Their other races are: 2 space aliens and 7 titanspawn. Meanwhile, the Horde also has 2 space aliens but only 1 titanspawn. So really, the Horde is the faction that's more native to Azeroth while the Alliance is the invaders. Form a certain point of view.

This is prob the best condensed version of WoW lore out there. Just wanted to say one thing (as a Dwarf lover). You kinda phrased it like the first Horde intentionally drove or trapped the Dwarves in Ironforge then moved on, as part of their plan. When in reality, the Horde was trying to sack/destroy Ironforge, but they could not breach it, and were forced to move on.

UNBELIEVABLE VID! Great job!

I loved Illidan's running "I AM MY SCARS!" gag. Also, Helm of Domination going "Ow!Ow!Ow!Ow!Ow!Ow!" while Sylvanas rips it in half was great.

The cycle of life can be cruel

Easily one of the best WoW videos ever

Shenanigans! How can you not mention the part where Arthas uses his own father's urn and replaces the ashes with Kel'Thuzad's? That was so awesomely horrible!

This video is a must for people wanting to learn Warcraft lore. Everywhere else I've tried I'm 3 hours into a video series and it's not reached the 15 second point of this video

"the mages (of dalaran) don't like that as without magic wizards are just frail nerds"

I was following along great for around the first 3/4 of it and then they time traveled for the second time and everything got really confusing.

I love time travel stories and that was just confusing crap. I guess they ran out of ideas or got lazy and decided to bring back old characters for profit, but didn't work well so they tried something even more radically stupid with the jailer.

That started right around when all the original creators of the warcraft universe started leaving & Blizzard merged with Activision. AKA, it's the shameless corporate money generator that's used in basically every industry. Marvel is the exact same.

@@joshualastimosa5713 that's actually true. In lore it says that the Titans are too strong and will destroy the azeroth if they will try themselves. They understood that by killing 1 oldgod and ripping a hole in Azeroth. So they made an army instead to fight for them.

@notyourbuisness689

Pretty sure the Titans could but they didn't because the old gods had attached themselves to the growing titan inside Azeroth because apparently all planets are titan eggs???? Also something to take note of the guardians left behind aside from dragon aspects actually possess titan powers which the new races of Azeroth gained from their machines who were turned into people so it's not as far fetched as one might think.

The Titans could most definitely kill the old gods, one of them rips Y'shaarj out of the world like a parasite but they realise that if they did that they would kill the world soul. The Sha in Pandaria is the remnants of Y'shaarj.

Anyone else listen to this, look back on the past decade of gaming and only just now realise why you did half the things you spend endless hours doing? xD
