None... that's just the base game at the highest settings.

Nope, you've got it entirely wrong. 1. Arthas did a lot more than just "not explain the situation better." His goal was to murder an entire city of people without even looking inside and seeing what the situation was. He was going to commit MASS MURDER on the premise that they "might all be infected" because of the grain. That is no better than bombing an entire city of people because they "might become terrorists one day." There are parallels to some modern events. PAY HEED! 2. Just letting it happen is 100% an alternative, as is quarantining the town, as is doing something else that is more effective overall, like warning Terenas of the threat and rallying the alliance back together so that each faction (elves, dwarves, and humans) don't die alone. 3. We see at the end that Arthas didn't even finish the genocide he said he would start, thus if his assertion that EVERYONE was already infected was true, he would have failed in his mission. That's the point... You see... It was never about "saving his people" or the city, or his Kingdom. It was about WINNING by any means necessary. It was about destroying Mal'ganis... defeating him in a game of sport where the lives of his people were the bowling pins. Just look at it from the perspective of being a citizen of Stratholme. Let's say you were inside a house, and Arthas kicks in the door. You and your family aren't even feeling sick, and you didn't even eat any grain, but your Prince starts MURDERING your wife and children before your very eyes... Would you bow down to kiss his boot and thank him as he decapitated you? How people got The Culling (the very name of which is about murdering cattle) so wrong is beyond me... But it's not okay. That is genocidal psychopath shit... You missed the message somehow... Now you know the reality of the situation. Arthas was 100% wrong at The Culling. He could easily have swayed Uther and Jaina to his side if he had been even a little bit flexible about a potential quarantine, but no... it had to be his way RIGHT NOW... That's the point! A rash prince brought down to vile acts through manipulation of the situation... That's the story.

@@DesignerDave Yet the game states that you are wrong, since the in-game cutscene shows that Arthas did not killed everyone in the town(Arthas only destroys plaged houses, and there are people alive at the end), and if you actually play the escenario, after destroying a plaged house you can wait until the citizens become zombies before killing them and they all convert. Also you cant blame Arthas for not considering a quarentine, if Uther or Jaina didnt consider it why you blame Arthas for not doing so? That was even possible? they had enoght troops for that? We dont know. What we know is that the people Arthas killed were all infected, not everyone in the city was killed, Uther and Jaina did not proposed anything else and walked away leaving everyone to their fates, including Arthas. I belive your hate for the character has completely blinded you here. But well, do not take it the wrong way, the fact people are still discussing this after all these years it just show how well written Warcraft 3 was. I just dont see the same things as you do in the game.

We'll find out soon. :D

That would be an entirely different game, but I'm all for it... I just don't think it'll happen.

There are a few communities you should look into. Check out the various ones on Hive, including Insane Monster's Re-Reforged, and Chronicles of the Second War. There's also Grubby who still plays War3 live.

@@grog159 this is literally my headcanon as I quit retail for good in start of BFA

We remastered Warcraft II over 20 years ago. It was called War II BNE.

If I could get it to autoloot them... but I'm willing to experiment, this is a great potential idea. :)

@DesignerDave I remember using a macro like that in classic. It wouldn't loot fast enough to complete before combat started but the pick pocket loot would be on the body after looting the normal drops. So I would loot each mob twice after killing them. Dunno if it would work the same here.

I believe there's a "Barber Shop" in Sparkwater Port (near Orgrimmar).

Well... hold on there. This is QA and for a game that required emergency testers for a more niche hardware platform (Macs). Plus locality... He was already nearby. QA was something I did for Bliz part-time while still attending college, and many studios still have internships and part-time QA jobs (or more often now, night-shift QA jobs).

The clone Mac era was truly the weirdest one. Just before Steve Jobs came back.

@@KingLich451 I guess I can stop playing then!

If they don't have time for quarantine, they don't have time for genocide by hand either. But with 100% certainty, genocide is evil, and quarantine is not.

@@obiwan4561 There were definitely bugs in how you escape out of cinematics because they were all done by hand.

He resigned, and it was around the time Warcraft III Reforged got defunded and the Classic team got gutted by Kotick.

And what of the people who didn't eat any grain? Do they not deserve a chance to live? If you were in Stratholme and you knew you and your family didn't eat any grain because you've been sticking to corn and lamb, what would you do when Arthas kicks in your door? Bow down and lick his boot as he massacred your family?

@@DesignerDave What other options were there? Uther who offered no alternative - or Jaina who also offered no alternative? You're condemning Arthas for making the best of a bad situation while as if there was any better alternative (there wasn't)

@@Venetheus Dozens of options. Arthas: "Uther, listen, we can try to save as many people as we see who are uninfected, but it must end at this city." Uther: "We can quarantine them in the Zoo until we're sure they'll turn." Arthas: "Okay!" Jaina: "Okay!" But the point of the story is that Arthas doesn't look for another answer, he doesn't wait for anyone to have time to think. Watch the cinematic again... It's his way or the highway, act NOW, act RASHLY... That's the whole point of Arthas' character. He acts without thinking it through and his downfall... The whole point of THE CULLING (so named because he treats human beings like cattle, look up the definition of "culling), is that Arthas only cares about his vengeance... he has to stop Mal'ganis NOW... Arthas isn't looking for alternatives, and he literally accuses Uther of treason before he even gives him a second to think of an alternative. Without that... Without Arthas being irrational here, the story dosn't work. It all builds to this. Look at everything from Mission 1 Uther: "Vengeance must not be a part of what we do here." To the end of The Culling Arthas: "I'll follow you to the ends of the Earth!" What was Arthas ACTUALLY doing at Stratholme? Saving his people? My ass.

Except that more than fifty percent understood the intent correctly and still think it's brilliant... If The Culling isn't a step into the path of evil, I don't know what is... I wonder how many people see the genocide in Gaza in a similar way...

@@DesignerDave The intent that it's part of his path to evil? Yea, I'd agree with that. The later story supports it and Arthas commits steadily more and more deplorable acts. But your discourse in the video I don't agree with because I don't think the setup is really there in the way you say it is. The Culling here is presented like a devil's choice where no outcome is good and the worst possible outcome might be to do nothing. Could it have been avoided and something more humane happen? Probably, but both Uther and Jaina abandon Arthas to do as he wills and Arthas, at his most desperate moment, chooses the culling as what he sees as the only good decision and, with how much the audience knows, it may have been the only thing he could do because of how big a crisis its made out to be in the story. That's why the story is even talked about now because he commits an evil act on the belief (as false as it is because of what happens later) for a greater good and the audience can understand both his rationale and the conditions that led to that and discuss how it could of been different. From Uther standing up to Arthas, to Jaina trying to guide him from just being a mad butcher on the populace. To him just going to warn his father that Stratholm has fallen. I'm not sure on the Gaza point you're talking about here. That's a real world tragedy with a lot more human complexity, cruelty and uncomfortable reality than a video game story involving a fantasy world with an undead zombie horde and demon invaders and a "everyone works together and world peace is restored" message. People talking about fiction here are not necessarily discussing the morality of real world ongoing conflicts.

The truth hurts, but it's better to just tell it like it is so people can move on.

@@DesignerDave Very true. I watched Asmon react to that clip and you can see the copium drain from his veins.
