RUclips: Hey wanna see this cool expansion teaser from 10 years ago?
Yep. :D
Exactly, haha
i got it now
Yes
And now it’s relevant again lol
No other world reveal comes close to how cool it was to see this.
They dared to really change the world drastically.
They need to do something similar again.
It was so freaking incredible to re-explore the old world and see "WoW 2.0" when you went into the cata zones.
Loved that expansion.
Path of the titans was best feature of cata.
Just like in wrath was dance studio.
deceptive marketing characteristic of activision... and their boyfriend sony
"New monsters"
Shows pictures of monsters because none of them were ever put into the game.
lol
@@carriercarry troggs was earlier
Vorgens?
that chris metzen voice
Rip metzen
Absolutely at his best. His narration in this trailer is among the best I've ever seen.
Dont you mean Thrall? :P
Milton D that or Varian.
@@CEORobbo He's not dead.
"Oh Deathwing, you sure did try. But in the final hour, all must serve-
The one-
True-
*King.*"
+Troopertroll yeah, Wrath of the LICH KING >>>. Best expansion EVER
So its from this that OTK comes
Elvis?
"The one... true... king..."
You mean the jailer?
Still waiting for the path of the titans talents
indeed
along with the new dances from Lich king
TheHorreK2 worgen, goblins and pandaren have new dances, don't they? ;)
they are here, they renamed it Azerite Armor
Still waiting
I remember the hype for this expansion, oh my god!
I think this was the most underrated expansion that Blizz released.. Worgens were the most fun race to level and Hyjal was a really nice zone as well.
UnlimitedChannel Worgen and Demon Hunters has my all time favorite start zones
Brock Lesnar Guy this guy gets it!
@Brock Lesnar Alpha Male True, cataclysm is overrated imo
@Brock Lesnar Alpha Male mop isnt underrated.
People fully appreciate it for how awesome it was.
Yeah man i remember coming to Hyjal the first time in Cataclysm, when suddenly Ragnaros popped up right in your face. Decent addon ngl.
Coming up on the 10 year anniversary of this now. Hard to believe it's been so long.
Here's hoping this year's BlizzCon brings something really exciting to the table
Do you guys not have phones?
Sylvanas Solo's Bolvar and killed the Lich King ...... Now we're all dead....
RIP
Well, this aged poorly
Oh god
I get goosebumps every time I hear the music from the Gilneas zone. I love the Gilnean storyline, the zone, the worgen. I am definitely a Gilnean at heart!
cata has been by far the most unique of the expention it rly felt more like a big event that rly got you thinkin ""what is going here?'' one day your doing your thing and the next day the world is braking and on fire and deathing 1 shots you when you see him fly amazing feels
In terms of quests (and Uldum like THAT PLACE IS AWESOMEEE) and somewhat most of the revamp (Except for Auberdine, I will never forgive Blizz for that) I liked this expansion. It was the one that got me to raid, got me my first max level character, and showed me more of the game than just questing.
Even though people hate Cataclysm, I thank it.
Many people underestimate how good the total old world revamp was. Yeah the Deathwing fight was a let down, but I loved the dailies and also the world revamp I remember first watching this live and my eyes nearly fell out my head when they showed every part of azeroth being basically destroyed. Also when they showed the Graymane wall coming down I was so so happy.
The launch was great, and so was Rise of the Zandalari and Rage of the Firelands, there is negativity towards the end (Hour of Twilight) and the Dragon Soul raid, so people forget how great the expansion was
The lore was great too... a pity
+Piedoros You forgot Transmogging was a thing to(FINALLY!)
The biggest problem was the difficulty got spired downward. Although the launch was ok for difficulty. But then patches came and it was too easy.
The Troll dungeons want a word with you,.
Koscius again, that was Hour of Twilight fault too, only the last patch fault... the lauch? Zandalari? Firelands? no problem with the difficulty of these, they are balanced
This reveal cinematic still gives me chills to this day, just a shame that cataclysm kinda flopped, but blizz sure knew how to advertise back in the day!
I am still angry about Auberdine being destroyed...
Alex Nightshade same!! I used to always logout of my NE hunter at the inn. It was underrated on my server but I loved it.
I miss the Loch.
RIP giraffe (1:05-1:06)
Bandrew Andrew omg im laughing so much right now 😅✌ thanks you !
Lol you just made my day go from bad to amazing. Thank you so much
BWAAHAHAHA THANK YOU 4 THAT
😂😂😂
:(
how did players in 2010 think this would be bad?
They didn't lol. Cataclysm was INSANELY hyped prior to its launch, like probably the most hyped expansion of all time. The amount of build up and excitement for the expansion drop was insane.
Who else is here cause of cataclysm classic
👍
Waiting for the servers to go up 🤙
This was the first Blizzcon I got to witness, via the live stream. I can still remember how hyped I was when they revealed this :)
cataclysm had the best start of any expansion.
Destroyer120296 yeah I remember everyone waiting at the flight master ready to get Azeroth flying before servers DC it also took ages the queue to log on, it was the most busiest I’ve seen tbh, lich king didn’t seem that busy compared to cata start and pandaria wasn’t really busy either, however I heard BC start was the busiest ever, with 1000s waiting at the dark portal
The idea of this expansion was great, the execution.. not so much.
It actually had some really good parts and the best soundtrack out of all the xpacks.
gl for the modeller to remap whole continent for just one expansion =)
Wice Orc pretty sure it was more than just one modeller
@@MakaronCZ yeah there was but they were all just on a coffee break when one bullied modeller did all the work.
@@wiceorc5105 Chris Metzen just confirmed this
I remember watching this and being so hyped for worgen, to this day my main is a worgen. Can't wait for the model updates now!
Your wait is over!
What is your opinion about the newer models if you have seen them?
The fact that this was 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 times better than the Dragonflight announcement is so sad. They completely lost the "thing" they had to make us happy/hype. You used to wait for this and never get dissaponted. I'm just sad they don't care about these things anymore.
this expansion wasn't even that bad.
i dont get why people act like it's terrible
I think it got a bad rap because the dungeons/raids were way overtuned. I had 3 friends who left over it and never came back :(.
raid finder, cross-realm trash and destruction of social aspect of the game. Enjoy rushing through dungeons with 4 autistic kids who don't say a word.
Really hope they do cata classic
🎉
haha, wake up, it’s here
While playing Cata i met one of my best friends ever. I still miss those old days :(
I remember how in Wotlk all Tbc and Vanilla fans proclaimed Wotlk for the worst possible expansion to happen. In the end, it all depends on when you started playing...
Except you are lying i played during that time and did not hear on person say that.
@@basillah7650 you dont remember 3.2 - 3.4 then, 3.2 was gaaaaaaarbage, 3.3 i believed introduced the pop in dungeons which was the beginning of the end, and 3.4 was filler nonsense much like 2.2 was to TBC. from 3.0 to 3.1 people revered wrath
Soon to be somewhat relevant again, would be interesting if they bring path of the titans and tie it with glyphs this times
That part at the end from 4:14 onwards never fails to give me the chills.
I dont care much what people say, this was my favorite expansion.
I was sooo hyped for cata, but when I hit 85 and after a month or so I realized that it was pretty bad.
Mountain Dew really? You must've played very bad, because 4.0.3. and 4.1. were amazing.
Cata was one of my favourites
+Mountain Dew pretty bad? how? the raids had nice variety, lots of daily quests and it has the coolest gear.
+konack1 yeah it was my fav i don't even know why people even hate this! just a littlebit zone changes and what? i like cataclysm
I've played WoW since vanilla, and overall Cataclysm was my favorite expansion. The intro raids/dungeons and the new zones were great. I still enjoy questing 1-60 and 80-85 to this day, though Outland and Northrend put me off from lvling any new chars. Goblins and Worgen are among the most awesome races still, even without updates. The only bad thing really was Dragon Soul, but even there I have many fond memories. Archaeology was awesome, getting the Qiraji mount from Tol'vir solves took a lot of time, and luck :P Wish they would add new things like that. The Archaeology system they introduced in MoP is really boring, turning in boxes for rep isn't exciting at all.
WoW is still a great game, I just hope they don't keep the current garrison system in the next expansion, 'cause it feels too mandatory and makes the world feel very empty and useless. Trying to make everyone feel special is also a bad idea, 'cause if everyone is a "commander" and "the world's LAST hope", it has the opposite effect.
Aleksa Petrovic MoP was alright. I especially enjoyed the PvP in that expansion, it was decently balanced, etc. Didn't care much for Timeless Isle and SoO but the Throne of Thunder trailer still gives me goose bumps :) I don't raid anymore though, I don't like what LFR has done to raid progression. I believe that in order to gear up for the current raid content you should have to journey through the previous tiers. These days the content becomes obsolete as soon as a new patch rolls out, forcing us to play through the same raids 2-4 times a week (per character). So I think the longevity of the PvE aspect of the game has been compromised this way.
Just my 2 cents.
Fraggy the baws are u still playing in legion?
"Deathwing has returned"
I didn't really like this expansion overall, but I still get goosebumps on that line.
Christine Connors CHRIS METZEN-WING/THRALLGREENJESUS.... HAS RETURNED!!!!
Christine Connors Every time, just now even.
Started out great; ended in shambles.
Actually it started out in shambles which resulted in 3m+ sub losses and ended great with 4.3 patch resulting in 2m+ sub gains and new features such as raid finder and Transmog.
Smithe6690 hurrr muh firelanss
***** huh? lol
Smithe6690 subs != How good the game is.
Wotlk started out great and ended in shambles, cata was DOA.
I still remember getting obliterated when Deathwing carpet-bombed my zone, it was ... GLORIOUS! That xpac was decent, too.
From the first time I saw the dragon at 3:46, I've wanted to see it in game. Possibly as a mount.
I *still* want to see it, 11 years later.
The world will never be the same.
_Classic has entered the chat_
Cataclysm wasn't terrible, it wasn't the best, but it was decent.
@Donald Trump nothing is worse than world of garrisons
@@brainer3 Battle for Azeroth
Unpopular opinion: Cata is the best expansion narrowly beating WotLK
@@connor3198 i think WotLk came too early. Imagine what how much different game would have been if it happened after cataclysm. And it would have made some sense. Imagine it, Deathwing rises, causes world wide devastation. This could have been the triggering moment that awoken Lich King from his ice, starting its campaign against living after deathwing had caused lots of death and chaos all across the world. That would have been true crisis. Then again, death knight would have been delayed for a while and perhaps replaced with something else.
If you like dungeons then legion is by far the best.
This was the last teaser/trailer that excited me
wow, i still get chills when listening to the music combined with his voice, it has been like that since i watched it the first time in 2009
Cata blessed us with playable Goblins, so I say it was a huge success.
i'm rooting for deathwing, MAY THE HORDE AND ALLIANCE FALL BEFORE HIS MIGHT!
My favorite expansion.
Hi Blizzard! Where is water that you promised us from 1:26? Wow has RTX now but no cool water still
I would listen to Chris metzen saying "Bastions of antiquity !" on a loop for 10 minutes of I could
4:13 "The world has been broken" You got that right...
Xainer just stop...
Cataclysm is always my favorite expansion. I wish Blizzard used full potential of cata expansion. They could make a raid in Uldum like Ulduar (one of the best raids ever made). I wish patch 4.2 focused completely on elementals. They could make 4 raids (each would represent other elemental, Firelands, Abyssal Maw, Throne of the Four Winds and raid in Deepholm representing earth elemental). I'd like to see also better version of Dragon Soul and ofc much better Deathwing fight. They could make a water zone with daily quests like Molten Front.
I wish Blizzard hadn't nerfed heroics dungs. They were difficult pre nerf but had interesting and fun fights.
@@conradowawako3788 cant agree more with what you say!! 100% legit.
back when we thought Cataclysm was the low point of wow, back when dueling and pvp was really fun.
I agree. They really didn't need to redo the old world, although I'm glad they finally filled in the missing blank spots in between the zones. WoW from vanilla to WotLK was working just fine. They didn't need to "fix" it.
Such a long trailer for such a short expansion.
2022 and still waiting for that Path of the Titans they promised...
watching my childhood fly by
R.I.P DM and SFK :C YOU THERE, CHECK OUT THAT NOISE!
+Deejayah VC you pleb. DM = Dire maul!
Tbh i actually enjoyed cataclysm a little c:
This reveal is way more epic than the Woltk reveal^^
Best expansion ever!. I remember when i first turned 85. It was so nice experience, Now when i turned 90 i was like , Not so very big deal... I hope i wont lose my gaming experience
Just passing by to ask if the Path of the Titans will be released in the next expansion or you are still polishing it.
I've been clean for a year now. After playing for 4 years, I'm not going back!
This is when it got weird.
Admittedly, it wasn't until Pandaria that it got really weird.
Rest in peace Path of Titans, maybe next expansion. Custom dances you now have a friend (custom dances were advertised with wrath).
The worgens, dungeons and especially the maps were the best things about the expansion 😍🐺
It was promising...
Then they scrapped the potential raid in the Abyssal Maw.
That was the first step to its downfall.
I wish I could give multiple +1's for this.
Thiji Higuri People would probably have cried about an underwater raid anyway, even though you hardly notice the water in Vashj'ir. Dragon Soul, however, was a big blow to the quality of the expansion.
Because people can't git gud and learn how to fight underwater.
But Abbysal Maw scrapping allowed full resources on Firelands. And it was spectacular!
Odd how deathwing didnt even touch northrend
Thats where the lich king resides idnt it 2 big baddies cant meet face to face it breaks story telling rules
true but it in the end the storyline wrapped up there with wyrmrest temple being the focal point of his demise and the pending demise of azeroth, called dragonblight for a reason. (he probably didnt want to see his peers)
I remember the days when heroice deadmines was a running gag... then this happened.
SHATTERED, RELENTLESS UPHEAVAL, TRANSFORMED, DEVOURED BY RAGE, TORN ASUNDER, DESTRUCTION, ANCIENT, TETHERS, DOMINACE, SURVIVAL, PATHS OF GLORY, VIGILANT, DEVOUR, BASTIONS OF ANTIQUITY, BROKEN, NEW AGE, CLING TO HOPE.
I think they have exhausted their supply of epic, dramatic words. xD
I liked the old worgens better
yeah, they woulda been better in a scourge playable faction
how Human Hunters weren't a thing before Cata is beyond me...
how troll druids wernt a thing is beyond everyone
I really loved questing in Cataclysm! Even now I still do the Goblin starting zone just because it was fun, it felt like a little adventure. Uldum was another zone that was really fun and the ending made me laugh!
I'm here on a nostalgia trip. Remembering 2009
Hi from 2019 :)
@@Nicotine45 hi from 2022
Hi from 2023
If only we knew...
idd
Did you see that Giraff just gone at 1:03 ? :P
It exploded.
Trailer is gonna be so badass. And I don't even play anymore =(
cant wait to play this
Can't wait for Cataclysm!
I think Cata was pretty much good, Wotlk was the best. Only did not like how the ruined the community in zones like The Barrens. The bosses had unique tactics, etc., Cata was good. WoD, on the other hand, is the worst expansion.
Simeon Monev ya I loved wotlk ... The zones & the music is so nostalgic . The music especially I feel like ppl don't really pay attention to it but it really gets me into the game
"the world will never be the same"
Yupp, game have change, so have Blizz....
Remember when Ultratxion in the final raid said: This is the beginning of the end!
- He was right... It really was the begging of the end, mop and wod came after. :(
Meh. Mop was alright. Not jaw dropping. But enjoyable.
Wod on the other hand...
mop was my favorite expac (didn't play tbc)
I honestly dont know how tbc was like. But i found it boring whenever i levelled up in Outland. It had a weird setting.
Doesn't matter, what matters is Overwatch. The rest is history.
I love Cataclysm It's the best expansion ever It was so much fun I really miss It and and any hate or comments against Cataclysm will be removed don't argue with me.
+Katherine 85 DEATHWING..... HAS RETURNED. Those three words..... talk about eargasm
Hey guys why u say this is a bad expansion, I think it's kind of good I would like your opinion :P
+Templar People say It's bad because it changed the old Azeroth, they hate it cus' they miss the old zones but imo the game was alright.
+Templar the dungeons man
+Templar They tried to make dungeons hardcore again but after WOTLK everyone had become softcore casuals who mindless charge into dungeons with no idea of tacts and exspected loots into their hands.
Then after they nerfed everything again it just got so mindlessly esay. I was a casual like everyone else but at the end of expansion I jumped from LFR que dragonblight to full clear HC without breaking a sweat =/
I am watching this for the first time in 2020 and we gotta admit that Blizzard did an incredible amount of work on that expac and it had tons of content. Unlike WOD and BFA...
@NotTrollingAtAll I'm going to have to completely agree with you. I'm glad they have the option of having lower graphics for people with less efficient computers, and higher graphics for the ones with better built computers. Great job explaining this.
Cataclysm is a master piece, fantastic races. Everything is great except deathwing was uninteresting. Paladin tauren? Awesome!
Can’t wait for this to hit Classic.
To be honest, I'm glad that they are taking such a risk to create new content. I mean, yea, the old is familiar and I'll hate it trying to work out the new world, but they are trying to progress, find new stories and quests, areas, and this is a plausible and an amazing way to do it!
my favourite expansion
0:00 4:42 .... I think I'm going to cry... It's just so beautiful....
''Best Expansion Ever''
Peter Nagy That was the best part of Cataclysm, it brought challenge unlike Wrath of the Faceroll King
The cataclysm needs a remaster 2.0, i liked of the cataclysm, end time.. wow, that was nice and the trailer? Well, so epic.
A true Cataclysm for World of Warcraft indeed.
This expansion got a lot of unwarranted hate but this was by far my favorite and I started out in Vanilla.
Goblin song is
@@DragosCatalan-rl2di a little late but the Theme is called Cast Away
What happen to sargeras server before?
Likely because each new expansion both adds and removes some content (at least it's true of the last 2 expansions, which might have gone a bit overboard in this regard). And when something you like/enjoy/love gets removed, the sentiment is much stronger than the fixes that are being made at the same time.
When the game went downhill ;(
It was fun though at the time when I was 8 XD
make Gilneas great again
4:27
*DeathWing… Has Returned*
For Classic
Chris Metzen is such a badass
This could have been so good
Not for everyone who played before it lol
+Vigors Vigores still much better than wod
Wotlk>BC>Pandaria>Wod>Cataclysm
legion>returnofthefuhrer>Razorfen Kraul the expansion> Nightmare of lady V'ajhina
+Vigors Vigores Nah its more like Wotlk > Cata > Pandaria > BC > WOD
Hopefully Legion can Wotlks throne.
+Vigors Vigores lol if WoD isn't on the bottom of the list you obviously haven't played since wrath.
People say cata sucked still had more sub then wod or legion
WoD sucked even more...
Prior to its cancellation, Paths of the Titans was a system of character progression which was planned to be introduced in Cataclysm that players would have been able to take once they have reached level 85
“Path of the Titans” what was it anyway before it was scrapped
