The worst cut content for me was the fact that you didn't have to sacrifice an existing character to turn it into a Death Knight, it would be so cool if you got some special customization or spell based on your previous class. They could even extend it to Demon Hunters, like leveling a belf and getting the choice to kill your character for the Lich King or earn eternal servitude to Illidan
omg you just unlocked a memory lol! my brother & I totally misunderstood the premise of how to originally get the DK. our young, naive selves thought an existing class gets “morphed” with the DK, & bc we shared toons on the same realm, we got into a huge argument as to who gets their character morphed with the DK.. we didn’t speak to each other for damn near a month lmaooo
@@sagetusk There are so many cool ideas they could've done. Like sacrifice your hunter to become a DK? Dark Ranger. Your Warlock? Necromancer. Your Paladin? Horseman. Your Mage? honorary San'Layn. And sure it doesn't make sense for druid, but you could give their own hero class, like Dryad or always being in a half-form like Malfurion.
I love these. I really hope you feel all the love and support for these. I listen to these every night to fall asleep to. I absolutely adore these vids.
honestly i put these to fall asleep but since i basically fall asleep frame zero and dont actually get to hear any of the facts/trivia i end up just playing it on second monitor while grinding out levels in classic, now that i actually started playing wow partially bc of this channel
Tattoo parlor sounds like a great idea for customizing toons with unique designs in a few different places, maybe like face, arms, legs and an option to make a piece of gear transparent or can be tailored to shorten sleeves and such
As someone who grew up playing wow pservers I have seen a lot of these old cut zones. Like emerald dream or the Azshara bg. Old pservers would use those zones as custom cities or leveling zones.
Aww, at 4:40 (electric boogaloo) broke my heart (😅), city siege and more open world PvP is one of my dreams! In 2005 city raids= some of my favorite memories of all gametime! Still trying to save up for Starlink (and find a way to get paid to stream/play all over the great wilderness.. I live in my car+campingbasecamp). Stuck in Vegas.. four more days left to try to make it happen! Love your videos Hiru, hope you’re doing well too
Spirit originally gave bonus to proc chance but was reworked before vanilla release to be solely focused on regen. The original iteration of spirit made it much more powerful, and an excellent stat for all DPS classes.
you missed an update on this mount! 1:22:00 , this mount is now in the game, her name is Yu’lei, Daughter of Jade! she’s a timewalking reward, costing 5000 timewarped badges! i noticed u made updates and corrections for other things but not this one, so this is for anyone who was curious
At 40:12 it's very cool to see that the tomb of sargeres has been planned for a bit, same with kul tiras but you already say that lol. Very interesting that they're in around the same place as well. Just shift them to the left. Also very funny that they made kalimdor so itty bitty.
I learned this tidbit when i ran into a wow dev at GDC. Originally, those droppable flags (the flag of ownership...etc.) had collision. They had to remove the collision after the QA team used them to completely block off Zul Aman during a test .
Not sure if you'd be interested in this for a video idea but if you did a video about hidden content or content that was changed between expansions or something of that nature. I have videos from back in classic of how to get into old ironforge while the area was still blocked off, it looks wildly different than the area they opened up for players. It definitely had work put into it so im not sure if it was something from beta that they originally intended to implement but then cut it or what.. But i know there have been several zones like that throughout the games history.
38:10 "People would always spend all of their points into the best ones." I know it's unlikely for anyone involved with that early testing to see this comment but if you do, what made you feel this minmaxing was necessary so early in the game's pre life? What happened to the fun and exploration a lot of jaded vets today claim was present back then?
1:30:23 i know this was very inconvenient..But i miss having to make items and stuff like this for your class. hunter ammo, rogue poison, thieves tools, etc...added a little immersion and class identity
different ways of doing it tho that do not involve bag space. hunters miss out on a whole bag slot for an ammo pouch & rogues needed powders for vanish & blind + poison & thieves tools.. if ur using consumables like thistle tea, takes up SO MUCH bag space.
@@hotlikesauce Yeah, would've been cool to see a workaround that doesnt require bag space. I also miss stuff like paladins having a libram, even if it didnt do much lol.
1:36:00 When you talk about this potion, I'm pretty sure it was removed because in earlier versions of the game and maybe even still today if you get feared near terrain you can't normally climb, your character can actually just run right up it with zero fucks given if the fear pathing wills it. This was what led people to discovering what we knew as Wallwalking until it was removed in patch 1.9. Other things include getting feared through hills. With that knowledge in mind I feel it's a pretty safe assumption why they removed it. Especially since you could most likely further cheese it by having a warlock throw Curse of Recklessness (immunity to fear) to break the effect if you couldn't cancel it. On a fair few private servers for WoW, including Nostalrius at the time there was an exploit where you basically dueled a warlock, they feared you then immediately put on Curse of Reck. For the debuff duration of fear you had full control of your character but could just run up things. Got to the out of world Nefarian arena that would later become the entrace to Blackwind Descent that way.
Could’ve sworn Deathwing was originally supposed to have come out of somewhere in Eastern Kingdoms (Black Rock or Grim Batol maybe? Hence the cinematic), I think they changed the way you get to Deepholm to the Maelstrom to make it more central and make what happened in Kalimdor make more sense. But I may just be misremembering things.
21:58 Reason it was scrapped cause people on beta complained and assume Yrel become dasmel in distress if she was Maraad's lover, hinse it was removed.
It was probably said in the comments but we did eventually get the incubus. But what gets me every time i play this video is "arathi basin 2 electric bugaloo"
I know Blackrock Depths was so big. But man I wish we could have gone through the gate and into the actual city. Its was and still is my favorite dungeon ever.
yo the part that starts at around 2:04:00 is so true and funny af!! They still cant fix this for SoD smh.. though playing a pally in SoD has been pretty fun
The description of dishonor reminds me of the way some factions like Booty Bay and Bloodsail Buccaneers, where you can become hated with one by helping the other.
Vashj'ir is my favourite WoW zone of all time, I'm even leveling in Cata rn to play it again in full glory. So naturally, the entitled part of the playerbase hated it and complained so much that Blizzard scrapped the whole raid that would explain that giant epic maelstrom you see when you finish questing in Vashj'ir. All because some crybabies couldn't handle 1 water boss. Which they later in BFA would still have to take on lol.
Deathwing wasn’t imprisoned there. He was healing after wc2 and then his energy was leaking so he needed the plates. He burst out to just leave and that broke the world pillar which cause the elemental upheaval
you didn't mention that strenght gave melee attack power, so totally useless to hunters even in vanilla ( they needed ranged attack power that agi gave)
I always wondered about the “forsaken”. The original were the citizens of Tirisfall (right?) but there are new ones added, Sylvanas even used the Valkyr to make more Undead. How come they are only ex-human. I always thought that undead should be a third faction, with undead from Alliance and Horde. And the Deathknight should have the requirement to sacrifice a character, and it would be awesome if to get the necromancer you have to sacrifice a caster ?😊
didn't even talk about the black hyena mount that was in the mount journal during most of bfa stating it was a pvp reward but never actually obtainable until they eventually removed it from the game entirely
Wow I never really got into the pvp side of things back in the day so I was completely un aware of the dis honor system. Then again I didn't start playing till the end of BC so :D I have a Vanilla box from back in the day as then you had to buy the base game as well as the expacs, I'm tempted to pull out the manual just to see if they updated the Vanilla Manual when BC came out lol.
I kind of miss the longer dungeons. the game is a lot better at letting you do things faster these days.. but there was something about battling through a dungeon for a while. I feel like now the game is a speed running competition with dungeons. i came back for dragonflight and used to tank back in WOTLK and it's just seems like everything is a speed run. lol i never just took my time before but holy crap do people get angry if you take 3.7 seconds longer then the avg to get to the next mob
Server first titles was a bad idea IMO. Sure, they put alot of work into getting firsts, but like it's only ever going to be a few people who have studied spreadsheets and routed out every single step to the goal... which is both kind of pathetic and a bit of a kill joy to the otherf 99.9% of the playerbase. think first titles would be best if players just stumbled into them, no fore warning and not for anything obvious like first max lvl or first max professions.. maybe like first 1000 hks or first to max with certain parameters such as a low threshold of downtime, basically not rewarding the 2 people who blitz to max without ever stopping.
Regarding the "Test" eyepatch, since it has no special stats on it, it's 99% sure to be a matter of testing the model. In which case I'd like to point out how eyepatches, glasses, goggles, blindfolds, they need to toggle the eye glow part of the models of night elves, blood elves, draenei, undead and DKs off. Otherwise I've fiddled with at least a few instances on private servers with custom items where blindfold or eyepatch items kinda... look like dogshit, with half a slice of a low quality particle effect kinda clipping through the item. No longer a problem with the newer models that do other stuff for the glowing eyes instead of just having a floating particle effect sphere in front of the eye, like old Blood Elf models did. The way those glows were made is also why you couldn't have different eye colors on the old models. - You tried applying the Dark Ranger skin on a blood elf, they'd have red eye textures, but still have that green particle effect glowing in front of them.
Maybe add some lower tiers for people who almost made it so it don't hurt as bad. So the first 1000 max level warriors on a server become Warlords, the first 100 become Commanders, and the very first gets The Supreme Commander or something like that.
Am I the only one who saw the male succubus in game back in TBC classic?? I even remember asking in the party where it came from because I never seen it before and they said it was an update that came out recently with that patch of classic
Honestly. I‘d rather wait some months longer than have so much cut content. I understand if they scrap mechanics if they feel they can’t do it because of technical issues or balance. But man… don‘t take my story! Don’t take my places to explore!
Hirus collection of "fall asleep to" is just priceless. Big thank you to you, Hiru
yeah why not? clip together a bunch of old videos and post it again for more views. money printer fr
@@morganfreeman5260thing is dude has covered so much at this point and its something a majority of his demographic enjoys so why not
the absolute audacity to think I could fall asleep listening to this when i am so heavily invested in lore. ya kept me up 3 hours, you beautiful jerk.
How do you manage that . The fella got a soothing voice like a storyteller . im knocked out in 5 min after my head reach the pillow
The replays of it are for sleep
Its pretty funny watching videos like this where it has older clips in it with stuff that is now in the game.
Yea lol like the incubus
The worst cut content for me was the fact that you didn't have to sacrifice an existing character to turn it into a Death Knight, it would be so cool if you got some special customization or spell based on your previous class. They could even extend it to Demon Hunters, like leveling a belf and getting the choice to kill your character for the Lich King or earn eternal servitude to Illidan
omg you just unlocked a memory lol! my brother & I totally misunderstood the premise of how to originally get the DK. our young, naive selves thought an existing class gets “morphed” with the DK, & bc we shared toons on the same realm, we got into a huge argument as to who gets their character morphed with the DK.. we didn’t speak to each other for damn near a month lmaooo
Would have totally made the "hero class" name carry more weight and felt a lot cooler
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
@@sagetusk There are so many cool ideas they could've done. Like sacrifice your hunter to become a DK? Dark Ranger. Your Warlock? Necromancer. Your Paladin? Horseman. Your Mage? honorary San'Layn.

Yea wouldve been so cool. The questa in dk starting zone also are acting like that you were a regular here before or something.
I love these. I really hope you feel all the love and support for these. I listen to these every night to fall asleep to. I absolutely adore these vids.
I put these on when I’m high as background noise to listen to while I take care of my indoor and outdoor plants :D It’s blissful.
And traffic
stop doing drugs you fool you are killing yourself
honestly i put these to fall asleep but since i basically fall asleep frame zero and dont actually get to hear any of the facts/trivia i end up just playing it on second monitor while grinding out levels in classic, now that i actually started playing wow partially bc of this channel
Tattoo parlor sounds like a great idea for customizing toons with unique designs in a few different places, maybe like face, arms, legs and an option to make a piece of gear transparent or can be tailored to shorten sleeves and such

Lizy the Lizard has been added in dragonflight as a pet that you train into a mount
Really valuable info! Thanks for your priceless work to gather all of it in 1 place)

Dude I am so glad I'm not the only one that queues up a bunch of your vids before sleep lmao. I didn't even know these vids existed
Nice guy Hiru making sure we all get some good sleep
Man, these devs used to be so ambitious. They play it so predictable and safe now, it's just sad to watch.

Did i miss something because you have the Brewfest Kodo listed as cut content and im like 99% sure i have one?

5:11 aren't the incubi available now?
12:30
Im willing to bet C'Thun comes back in The war Within
One of the features that I was pretty interested in seeing what the Dance Studio, I even imagined my Night Elf DK doing the Undead dance. xD
Ah a long list of things that never existed in a game I never played. Bring me a dream Mr. Sandman
gillijim's island is a reference to gilligam's island, a sitcom from 1960s
OwO love this, everything about cut & beta content is so fun
demon's was such a good idea for a race- i hope they reconsider it, shapeshifting main char just sounds so juicy
I was think just going to watch this before going to sleep. So tired I missed it was 3+ hours to start with.

just got to the crane mount part and that is in the remix version now purchasable mounts haha, funny to see
QUESTION: There is a hunter in this video with some amazing addon that show KRACK anytime he crit. What addon is this????
58:17 freaky ahh hanguards talkin bout edgin and stuff
I know Blackrock Depths was so big. But man I wish we could have gone through the gate and into the actual city. Its was and still is my favorite dungeon ever.
2:07:00 By the Way Tigole is Jeff Kaplan if you didn't know it
The "Yulong" Heavenly Jade Cloud Serpent MIGHT show up as an unannounced reward for something related to MoP Remix coming soon.
I think Brazie Getz is a reference to Leo Getz from Lethal Weapon 2 and it's sequels. "Anything you want, Leo Getz."

For Vanilla WoW, 315 was the spell resistance cap.
Deathwing wasn’t imprisoned there. He was healing after wc2 and then his energy was leaking so he needed the plates. He burst out to just leave and that broke the world pillar which cause the elemental upheaval
I wouldnt have minded if they added more to BRD. The whole Blackrock mountain is one of the best places in WoW.
Dead turtle is more then likely a reference to skeleturtle from Mothra vs Godzilla
I'm glad they added Gorehowl to DF. Though now people who have it don't want it since they want the leggo
you didn't mention that strenght gave melee attack power, so totally useless to hunters even in vanilla ( they needed ranged attack power that agi gave)

Hehe. Thats 3 Hours of possible Season of Discovery content.. How the heck sould i be able to sleep with this in my mind 🤣🤣
i love that there was a designer called Tigole in reference to Tigole Bitties🤣
Hay so why did we have too loose the druid quarters
More “fall asleep” compilations pleaaaaase
Warlocks can already change their Succubus into an Incubus so I think they have the models for sure.
That's not Troy Baker playing the Joker, that is Branden Lee's The Crow 1000%!
I still have my goblin jumper cables
didn't even talk about the black hyena mount that was in the mount journal during most of bfa stating it was a pvp reward but never actually obtainable until they eventually removed it from the game entirely
the jade cloud is in the game it is for timewalking for mop

Incubi were added in 2022 during Shadowlands.

Worst cut content is Dance Studio
baby shark was added back into the game it had just grown up
Warlocks can have incubus now
The exclusive titles is something you want in an mmo. They shouldn’t have listened, and they should’ve doubled down making all kinds of cool stuff.
Maybe add some lower tiers for people who almost made it so it don't hurt as bad.
So the first 1000 max level warriors on a server become Warlords, the first 100 become Commanders, and the very first gets The Supreme Commander or something like that.
Am I the only one who saw the male succubus in game back in TBC classic?? I even remember asking in the party where it came from because I never seen it before and they said it was an update that came out recently with that patch of classic
You fight deathwing human form in abberus.
arathi basin 2 electric boogaloo. fuck thats funny
The YuLon mount is in the game tho
Honestly. I‘d rather wait some months longer than have so much cut content.
I understand if they scrap mechanics if they feel they can’t do it because of technical issues or balance.
But man… don‘t take my story! Don’t take my places to explore!
Disagree on romath take I think it makes sense that he is loyal to both the leaders just means he’s doing a good job
I manged to stay awake 15 mins
