To be honest I never "saw" that they removed those pillars and everything, it was just feeling kinda weird in Retail that the place was so empty. But ye I feel weirded out now by this, and it's just another piece of Blizz removing a ton of things from old world with Cata.

My biggest disappointment in Cata-Desolace is the abandoned plotline of the Centaur Phariah. With the Amulet of the Union containing the spirits of the ancient khans, he was supposed to unite the centaur clans. And what do we get in Cata? Nothing. The Centaur Phariah was removed from the game as if never existed.

@ffarkasm Great point!

Considering the RPG year stamp is 2003, and WoW released in 2004, then yes you are absolutely right about Maraudon being a Titan Vault. However with the release of Cataclysm maybe they just couldn't figure out how to reinvigorate Desolace in regards to Titan lore? Honestly the Classic Desolace landscape leaves way more unanswered questions than answers with all the structures and the skeletons (though considering the tridents and the serpentine shape of their skulls one can only assume they were some sort of Naga-like creature).

It was still actually considered a titan vault/prison way back right before the cusp of Cataclysm launch during the pre patch event. and it wasn't until Chronicle that it was officially retconned out of existence for some reason. Cho'gall directly states it as such whenever you evesdrop as you are tasked with killing Theredras. Seemingly for good, as Therazane later in Deepholm talks about how we killed her only daughter.

@Dolthra

Looking at the adventure guide, it says that Theredras was an elemental princess corrupted by the old gods- which actually seems like a prime candidate for being locked in a titan vault instead of put in the elemental plane of earth. It definitely seems like that was the official story even in cata (a minor titan vault), and Chronicle just decided to change it for shits and giggles.

At this point I wouldn't even consider the RPG book non-canon, a good chunk of it is either still relevant or has been retroactively re-canonized, *especially* Titan-related lore.

Quite interesting. I've also always wondered why the undead found in the Valley of Bones in Decolace were classic humanoid skeletons on 2 legs and not 4-leged centaur skeletons (as I assumed it to be a centaur graveyard). Whose skeletons are those? Are they ancient dead Night Elves? Or did Blizzard just not have enough time to make centaur skeletons so they just used whatever? :]

I looked into this for ya! These Undead Ravagers are in the Valley on their own but can also be summoned by the Outcast Necromancers here. The necromancers summon them using an ability called "Summon Magram Ravager" referring to the Magram centaur clan, so I think they are intended to be centaur skeletons but just kept the base model. :)

Hi Jedi! Great hypothesis! I've been reading some reviews of the Warcraft RPG books. As much as they're held up as the pillar of alternative lore and how the franchise would have been infinitely better if it had developed along those lines, the reviews do a good job of painting the books in a pretty poor light. With a few exceptions, the lore we got in Frozen Throne and WoW was generally the superior option.

Ive always hated questing in Kalimdor. Ive been an EK guy through and through. Needing to go to Kalimdor was always an annoyance to me. I especially hated the barrens, Tanaris, Thousand Needles, and Desolace. But a while back on a private server, i made a troll hunter. Id played EK to death and knew too mamy quests by heart. I knew i needed a change, a new experience to keep me engaged. When i got to desolace, i was just there for a new scorpion. But i stuck around to skin the packs of hyenas. Eventually i made my way to the kodo graveyard, and found i could skin the kodos there. I stayed in Desolace from the entry level for the zone, until almost everything there was gray to me. Collecting leather from the kodos, kodo meat, and a rare feather drop from thr vultures. Leather for my craft, and the kodo meat and feathers for the AH. I made literally hundreds of gold there. My more autistic guildmate who farmed spots for gold asked me about it one day as i was going off in the guild chat. Desolace became his golden goose. Bro farmed kodo meat. Bro farmed those feathers, bro farmed the lobster traps and sold the rare fishing rods. Bro froze his exp to farm gold and by the time he was ready to start leveling again, he was the richest among us. ... Rokkaido man, you were a real one. Desolace went from a zone i absolutely hated, to a zone i couldnt stop going to lol

A few things. There's another Titan facility located under Bael Modan, according to the RPG books. It's a place I've been fascinated with forever, especially with the weird things happening in the dwarven fortress. But also, it's important to remember that early WoW was a lot of ideas that were wild and didn't fit. A lot of people were responsible for a lot of work, and not all of it had the narrative oversight you would expect. This is more of an example of them realizing something never fit enough to their liking. A revision of a draft of the world. Like a draft of a novel that maybe released before the story was truly finished. Which is a sloppy metaphor, but when you consider Blizzard's "story second" edict, especially back then, it makes sense. Like the Draenei and Blood Elves, the stories before didn't all make sense in the vision of the game moving forward. It just happens.

Also, they have a color model that consists of red lines that I do not see on other troggs.

Started the video out thinking you'd be trying to convince me maraudon was and still is a titan vault but I totally agree that "it *was* meant to be that originally" but it didn't go through. With the total cata removal you can totally guess that in vanilla it was meant to be a place tied with the titans somehow but got scrapped in the end and instead of removing it altogether they kept the architecture ties while scrubbing any actual titan mentions. Makes sense with vanilla still being more testing ground-ish and unpolished with leftovers of scrapped stuff and stuff that would come out later. The entire zone of Azshara in classic wow is infamous for being a huge but totally unfinished zone with next to nothing in it. Same with classic Hyjal or the gated instance portal in stormwind originally being for player housing. It'd make sense that Maraudon was intended to be tied to titans and they didn't bother to get rid of the kinda out of place stuff all the way up until the expansion that was all about re-doing the world to be modernized and to fit the lore better where they went "it doesn't really make sense to have all these grand stone arches and pillars in a centaur place" Great video, always fun to see stuff from you I wouldn't see anywhere else!

Hi. First of all, thank you for keeping up with lore theory. This kind of content is common on Zelda, Elden Ring, Star Wars or The Witcher, is rare for WoW. Moreover, a lot of WoW-lore content creators just repeat themselves (sometimes it is a litteral translation for laguage A to B lol), sometimes wish to make false hype (so I automatically despice them). Moreover, the amount of retcon in WoW is unbearable and some tries to give a sense to that. I remember well about the morally-fushia Sylvanas comment storm in all social media. It is too rare to see a content creator of WoW that make its own theories and I wish to bring credit and appreciation for that, especially because you verify your own sources. I really enjoy your content. About retcons : my thought is that they are too convenient. It is not a simple correction on two NCP relationship or on a NPC name, retcons are impactful and the writers should explain them. As for me, I accept no retcon on WoW lore so in my view Maraudon should have stayed connected to Elven ruins or to the Titans. Thank you for your video !

Classic has so much of this, so much that was intended but never finished... Uldum, or rather the gates to Uldum (and a quest from Ulduman leading to the gate of Uldum) are in classic wow, a portal which cannot be accessed because the area was never completed. I completed the whole quest WAY WAY back when and I was always disappointed that the storyline never went anywhere, even kept the useless disks as a memento hoping that maybe one day Blizzard would revisit the storyline and finish it. You can say they did when they finally implemented Uldum... but it wasn't even connected to this long-lost portal or the questline... What about the Sunken Temple, that storyline also dead ends never to be picked up again... So many interesting plot threads just left hanging... despite more than 20 years of wow...

You know this brought to my attention some weird inconsistency. Maybe I'm missing something though, idk. Basically, the elements are portrayed as this peaceful, harmonic force revered by shamanistic cultures, and yet at the same time, they're also servants of chaos? Although, nature can be pretty chaotic so frankly a yin and yang type of thing does make sense, yet the tauren and orcs seem to regard them as being mostly positive.

@Jediwarlock

Ай бұрын

You bring up a good point! I think ideally the elements are more on the tranquil side and can be used in harmony by the mortal races, but the more aggressive Elemental Lords allying with the Old Gods have thrown things out of wack. Additionally, the physical environment can affect the elementals and if the earth is disturbed then sometimes they can become hostile. It's not explained well in Classic, but my hypothesis is that there are some competing factions to the elementals behind the scenes that could explain why things are very yin and yang, as you say. For example, Duke Hydraxis and his water elementals ally with mortals to take down Ragnaros, and yet just one zone away in Winterspring, Princess Tempestria and her watery forces invade the zone and plan on destroying the mortals there. We then see isolated elementals like those summoned in Shaman questlines that seem pretty far removed from any of the "politics" of the elements. So, elementals can have a variety of motivations in my opinion and interact differently depending on which group they belong to, if any. :) Just my random thoughts but hopefully that makes a bit of sense?

Well now he îs a continent mf! 4 the 'we have lost a ton of subs let,s trick them into thinking thst we are going back' WoD. 5 the ,welp, this is our last known big bad and he îs a fart clowd, Legion. 6 the , i don't give a shit man just buy some store mounts and fluk off. Bfa-now.

You make some good points! The original trilogy really was best (Vanilla of course being amazing with the exploration and worldbuilding) :)

Yeah lol

How can the centaur be able to make highly detailed statues and "giant monster," but not some stairs and some walls??? Maybe that "style" is just the style they learned. Its not like square, dark stone work is limited to JUST titans. Maybe they removed those assets because they just didnt belong there. This game was made by hundreds of people. Over decades. Some stuff isnt going to make sense. At the end of the day, its a game. Not history.
