Every spec in the game had an artifact weapon for that expansion. Those weren’t actual legendaries like Hand of Ragnaros, Thunderfury and so on.

I think they were cooler than regular boring legendaries, honestly.

Welcome to world of Diablo. Characteristics and details are very similar to Diablo cinematics. Interesting choice.

It was just a filler trailer. Nothing to get excited about.

Waiting for the 2.5D stories to come out, or something similar. I’m surprised we had nothing by now.

That female paladin checks enough boxes for the whole expansion already, but I bet the juiciest parts are coming through side quests just like with Ohn’ahran plains lol.

The graphics are really good but the sequence of events is too random for my liking. There’s not really a story being told, no dialogues unlike, for example, Diablo cinematics that actually tell a story and are very engaging.

Its a bad trailer, just as the cinematic for TWW and DF was bad. Feels like Blizzard has lost its touch with the trailer and cinematics recently. Before it was always exciting to see what cinematics they would make for the next expansion, now they are just boring :confused:

Nothing new, and it doesn’t really bother me. Just their way of throwing out more adverts for War Within.

Tah always hating on old Warcraft, like usual.

The original trailer basically showed off classes and races what was there not to get?

53

I’d like to see an updated version of it
 With ALL races at least featured in some way and the classes we’ve gained since the vanilla days.

I think its absolutely fine considering we have had several cinematics regarding TWW where is in previous expansions we got one or ingame characters running around hitting enemies.

I also like the direction for the Arathi and welcome more Diablo styles enter warcraft as prior said in another thread I prefer more gritty armours than armours that look like they were designed by disney.

Thought the same when I saw it. Did trolls now become the Na’vi?

I enjoyed it personally, and think it’s nice to have a troll show up in it. Looking very savage and trolly instead of being a golden giraffe.

I loved it! this cinematic has so much warcraft vibes and feels, I love it so much! the game was missing this kind of stuff. a-m-a-z-i-n-g! feels warcraft once again!

To someone who never played any Warcraft game before, it was nonsense “cool action 2000s animation-boongalo”.

Sorry, but a Dwarf with a Rifle and a Bear doesn’t automatically scream “That’s a Hunter Dwarf” to someone unfamiliar with the franchise. The most obvious “class” was probably the mage, followed by the Undead Warlock, followed by the Warrior Orc.

Gave me chills, the music paired with the scenes, awesome.

Can’t wait.

I think it looks good. The similarities to the navi didn’t occur to me before regarding the Harronir but in this video it completely came across. I’m curious about Faerin Lothar and her bunch as well. I’m less interested in the earthen dwarves but I think a lot of dwarf lovers will be happy with them.
