The reason we all get so emotional is because we just want the the game to be good, we love this game, I've been playing since 2007 and it literally is a second home to me
i actually started crying abit for Anduin the crap he has had to go through running a hole kingdom as a child father dying during the legion attack then his soul and mind being controlled by the jailer i was getting so emotional cause you could feel his pain he was going through >.
I might have watched this panel over 5 times now. Every time I get the same excitement and tear when Metzen is called to the stage. His delivery was immaculate. WoW and its players needed some love. The cinematic was as if Metzen (Thrall) was calling out the players (Anduin) to bring us back home, to Azeroth.
I've rewatched it a bunch too. His energy is incredible and it hits me in the feels everytime. Such an iconic moment seeing him walk one stage after so long. And yes I agree 💜
Remember that the Void wanted Alleria to kill Sylvanas because he saw her as a threat to them. The reason in my opinion is that Sylvanas should be at the forefront of the 2nd expansion of the saga and probably save her sister who succumbs to void
Daddy Metzen is back to save the lore. And WoW. Love it. Missed him. And the OGs. And I cried too when he comes back. He and the OGs were the passion behind the games. We all feel it.
Jeez, I missed him. No other dev has the visible, audible passion for the game-story that he does, and no one else connects with the crowd like he does. I think the fact that he voiced/voices both Thrall and Varian adds something to it; it's almost like he becomes- or represents- our Faction Leaders, calling us to arms and guiding us into the expansion, while he's on that stage.
a lore guy i watch on youtube told me something that blew my mind. this cinematic, it wasnt about Anduin and Thrall, so much as it's Anduin being us, we hear the call, we see the visions, but we do not answer. and Thrall is Metzen, coming to tell us that he wants us to come back, and that he's sorry that he failed us. this Saga is not only a gamble to get the players coming back, it's the WoW Team and Metzen seeking redemption, while trying to set things right
ahh ok, coolness. admittently i've only watched him with Dragonflight. we end up butting heads when his takes are as bad as Asmongold's. lol@@LadySurvival
Return to Quel'thalas ? The High Kingdom shall not fall again ! This time, the Windrunners will stand as one in defense of their homeland (even if I despise Alleria). Selama ashal'anore. Also...Old world revamp is confirmed !
You can tell that even after he left in 2016, coming back he didn't miss a beat and he still sees Warcraft as his baby. The rest of the presentation for Rumble, HS and such felt clearly forced from the teleprompter and more like an Expo for shareholders to judge upcoming content based on audience reaction but Metzen showed what blizzcon is about, making content that players want to see, not what tested well with Focus Groups.
I dunno who you are but I'm binging people reacting to blozzcon because it was so good and the fact that you started crying before Chris even came out gets my sub. Also, sick hair
Blizzard's CGI still amazes me. Their work in this category seems better than what large companies like Disney can pull off. The Lich King trailer still looks good today. My first experience with WoW was Burning Crusade. I stopped after Wrath of the Lich King and only played for a bit during Cataclysm, mostly pvping. I haven't been back since, but this is tempting.
Oh I know right, their CGI is the best for sure. If they made a full movie like that, it would be insaneeee. Hey it's worth a try coming back. I haven't played much retail cuz I've been on classic more since it came out. But I will definitely be trying these new xpacs
I've watched the in-game trailer a bunch of times now and I really love the mysterious narration from Alleria at the start. It feels darker and much spoopier than past several feature overview trailers we've had. Also Xalatath looks cool as hell.
Loved this reaction. Was so excited while watching Asmons reaction, then whilst watching yours, found myself mirroring your emotions and teared up a few times, you had such a genuine reaction from a genuine fan I would love to see a reaction to the more in depth deep dive and get your thoughts on it if you were planning to 😊
thank you so much, im happy to hear my reaction made you feel something tbh i wish i did react to the deep dive stuff, just didnt get around to it haha
@@felipealvarado8801 yeah it was kinda meh when they said that in the "what's next panel" but hopefully the void will bring something atleast close to how epic the old gods were...BIG hopefully tho
loving the sound of the warband thing! where you and your alts get to share reps n stuff instead of doing them over n over on each alt/ main - which is one thing thats annoying the hell out of me in dragonflight!! But ye the cinematic was amazing as they mostly always are!! I remember people complaining that the sword thats stuck in azeroth is just simply forgotten about but then they hit us with this!! "forgot about what sword?? This sword?? Nah just biding our time until the right time!" Got me excited to see where this will end....
It will take a while cause its for fall 2024, still dragonfly its not bad like the last two expansions, its fun and have interesting things, but nothing compare to legion or wrath of the lich king
after watching the cinematic, I felt like this should have been a natural continuation of legion and I worry that bfa, shadowlands and in part dragonflight did irreversible damage to WoW, like there's no hope
I totally feel what you mean. They let it go way too long without addressing the sword and I feel like a lot of weird stuff happened in bfa and shadowlands for sure :p
Shadowlands were necessary. It tied to the whole Jailer lore that was hinted since Wrath. Plus I do believe his actions in the raid are what truly awoke Azeroth
The big reason I stopped playing WoW is because they literally have no more cinematics to keep you invested and transported into the story. Don't need anything crazy like Final Fantasy but cut the quest lines into chapters and give us some cinematic candy.
Damn, i had tears in my eyes as well. Been playing since 2004. And this is first time i see LadySurvival, and this might sound cringe, but she instantly inspired me to find a women like her and not feel any shame in the process.
Haha ikr xD Yeaaaa I feel that. Same with the last couple xpacs. I think we all went in with high hopes and it turned out kind of meh. But with Metzen back, this could be huge for real now
"She made him a man" You're giving her way to much credit. You're acting like Varian, Jaina, Khadgar, Thrall, Genn, Baine, Wrathion, Saurfang and Velen didn't exist lol
@@FrostbiteDigital haha that Genn is all about wrong decisions and personal feelings... as much as i respect others mentioned and they treated him well as someone who is on the rise, but only Lady Sylvanas knew how to shift him from a boy to man.
@@mohammadmezher236 Absolutely not. The others treated him and raised him into a man. Sylvanas may have had a hand in it but she is not SOLELY responsible.
Not sold. Played since BC cancelled both my subs after SL and taking a look at the next xpac. I could care less about flying dragons. The story telling became too WOKE and saving the universe every other day became absurd. WOW was hanging by a thread for me after Blizzard killed off Varian. That thread's name was Anduin. When they sent him to seek "wisdom" from Sylvanas and go sulk in the desert for a few years, that was the last straw for me. He had nothing to reproach himself for. If anyone should be having a crisis of conscience it should be the banshee queen. I see Shalamayne and I hear Josh Keaton's voice, but that's not Anduin anymore.
Chris metzen getting on stage had the most applause out of every dev this blizzcon
Best part of the night 😍😍
Wyatt Chengs wet dream...
The reason we all get so emotional is because we just want the the game to be good, we love this game, I've been playing since 2007 and it literally is a second home to me
As much shit as I give the game I do it out of love for it. There is so much potential for the game and it kills me to see it squandered.
I started in 2007 as well... Rexxar server
I'm fine with sylvanas being written off for now, but if the windrunners aren't reunited when we return to quelthalas, it'll be a crime.
Yeaa me too, it's still too soon for her to come back. At least they added her on Rumble tho :p
Oh yea big agree. Very excited to see all that
How could they be when one of them is an agent of the void.
still a year until next xpax and another 2 years for Midnight so that will be 4+ years on ice. i think it will be ok to bring her back by then
@danielmeagher9007 I think they're gonna be releasing these new xpacs every year now instead of 2 years. Not 100% sure but that's what it sounded like
well...someone has to come save us at the end of Midnight,...Right? ;)
I’m a grown man and almost shed a tear. What an amazing moment.
After watching the cinematic. The war within was not only talking about the world soul but our own personal battles aswell as you can see with anduin
yes, they know that they failed us and they are admitting it, because they want to make things right, especially Metzen.
i actually started crying abit for Anduin the crap he has had to go through running a hole kingdom as a child father dying during the legion attack then his soul and mind being controlled by the jailer i was getting so emotional cause you could feel his pain he was going through >.
I know me too, hes been through so much. i've really come to love Anduin a lot in the past few years.
pussy Anduin we don't wanna hear it, it wasn't his fault
Metzen is our Warcraft Dad, our WARCHIEF. I am glad he is back
This was such a cool reaction. You getting emotional in the beginning really mirrored my emotions and I got emotional all over again.
I might have watched this panel over 5 times now. Every time I get the same excitement and tear when Metzen is called to the stage. His delivery was immaculate. WoW and its players needed some love.

woah. i never thought of it like that.. dam
You're absolutely right! The detail in this cinematic is INSANE! Keep up the great work on your channel LadySurvival!
Remember that the Void wanted Alleria to kill Sylvanas because he saw her as a threat to them. The reason in my opinion is that Sylvanas should be at the forefront of the 2nd expansion of the saga and probably save her sister who succumbs to void
nope, no more assvanas.

glad to see I'm not the only one whose eyes welled up with tears of happiness to see Chris Metzen back on stage at Blizzcon. :)
It was such a beautiful moment 💜
awesome video! It's amazing to have chris metzen back. i get teary eyed everytime he comes out!
Thanks for the awesome reaction. Tears of joy are much much felt by so many.
Letting Metzen cook on stage was the greatest marketing move they could ever do.
I love how he did most of the presentation sounding like Thrall
I know right same
I had so many similar reactions when I watched the live 😂
Glad you can relate to all the feels!!
just wanna say Sylvanas is my fav wow character....and the dark lady will always watch over us
This 💜💀🏹
Good luck with that. She slaughtered her own people.
a lore guy i watch on youtube told me something that blew my mind. this cinematic, it wasnt about Anduin and Thrall, so much as it's Anduin being us, we hear the call, we see the visions, but we do not answer. and Thrall is Metzen, coming to tell us that he wants us to come back, and that he's sorry that he failed us. this Saga is not only a gamble to get the players coming back, it's the WoW Team and Metzen seeking redemption, while trying to set things right
I've seen some comments about this too and I love that. Who's the lore guy? I like a lot of WoW lore youtubers haha 💜
Accolonn is his YT handle, and yeah it threw me for a loop, so i had to share it around, it's hella meta if he is right.@@LadySurvival
I had a feeling you were gonna say Accolonn!! I love Acco, been watching him for years and we're actually pretty close friends!
ahh ok, coolness. admittently i've only watched him with Dragonflight. we end up butting heads when his takes are as bad as Asmongold's. lol@@LadySurvival
I felt like he was DM a D&D game to everyone, loved it.
Oh good i wasn't the only one getting so emotional seeing Chris Metzen again 😅😅
Hahaha I'm here with youuu 💜💜
Return to Quel'thalas ? The High Kingdom shall not fall again ! This time, the Windrunners will stand as one in defense of their homeland (even if I despise Alleria). Selama ashal'anore.
Also...Old world revamp is confirmed !
23:10 Crazy how much you look like Xal'atath in that frame
oh wow thank you haha :D
Can relate to the feels, I love this game and so glad to see your reaction ,you’re not alone that’s for sure :)
This man is the goat.
yesss hes the best ever
I had the same reaction when she started to announce Chris!
You can tell that even after he left in 2016, coming back he didn't miss a beat and he still sees Warcraft as his baby. The rest of the presentation for Rumble, HS and such felt clearly forced from the teleprompter and more like an Expo for shareholders to judge upcoming content based on audience reaction but Metzen showed what blizzcon is about, making content that players want to see, not what tested well with Focus Groups.
Around the all channels of warld of warcraft - I was looking for just the right one - and there is You. Thank You Blizzcon23
thank you so much!! glad you enjoyed
This cinematic gave me and my beard chills!
If you look closely you can actually see the sword reflected in their eyes throughout the cinematic.
Oh wow! I didn't notice that. Great observation
Metzen's presence alone will have me resubbed for war within. Haven't been subbed since 2019
Gotta be a reason why Anduin and the Lich King have the same exact holding the sword scene.
its unbelievable how charismatic christ metzen is.
Yesss he's amazing!! ❤
I love this game. Over 13 years later and I still love it more
Me too!! 17 years here and I just love it more and more forever 💜
@@LadySurvival for the horde
hear, feel, think
I dunno who you are but I'm binging people reacting to blozzcon because it was so good and the fact that you started crying before Chris even came out gets my sub. Also, sick hair
Aww haha thank you so much!! Appreciate that a ton. I knew right away what was coming and it hit me in the feels for sure haha 😭💜💜 thanks again!
Chris is funny 🤣 3 EXPANSIONS THAT WAS CRAZY ⚔️ how emotional you got really shows how much you truly love this game.
Haven't played WoW since Legion... Neither did i purchase any of the expansions before either.
I think its finally time to change that.
definitely time to come back!! looks like it will be awesome!
Blizzard's CGI still amazes me. Their work in this category seems better than what large companies like Disney can pull off. The Lich King trailer still looks good today.

Yeah, I actually shed some tears when the warchief was back.
Chris Metzen voice is just much more wow then the other devs hes a big orc
First time im seeing your content, and holy smokes i love the passion
Thank you so very much 💜💜 I appreciate that, WoW is everything to me
I've watched the in-game trailer a bunch of times now and I really love the mysterious narration from Alleria at the start. It feels darker and much spoopier than past several feature overview trailers we've had. Also Xalatath looks cool as hell.
I’m a 53 year old man and I sat there and cried every bit as much as you did! 😂
I'm so glad I'm not the only one!!! It was just so much, after Chris being gone for so long, and no live Blizzzcon for 4 years. It just really hit 💜💜😭
@@LadySurvival Absolutely! There was such a wave of nostalgia seeing him walk out on stage. No one has a presence like Chris Metzen!
@dreadbull5039 yes exactly!!
cause world of warcraft is part of are lives THIS IS THE WAY
Watched this Hours ago and still super hyped to how it all will turn out.
Loved this reaction. Was so excited while watching Asmons reaction, then whilst watching yours, found myself mirroring your emotions and teared up a few times, you had such a genuine reaction from a genuine fan
I would love to see a reaction to the more in depth deep dive and get your thoughts on it if you were planning to 😊
thank you so much, im happy to hear my reaction made you feel something
tbh i wish i did react to the deep dive stuff, just didnt get around to it haha
Long live the Warchief! So glad the GOAT of Blizzard is back in the saddle! He looks great too. I think he might have sobered up.
At 12:48, Does anyone know what the person in the crowd said to Chris? I can't make out what he said before he said "in time my friend in time"
I actually cry everytime so u dont need to feel bad
I wish Chris Metzen would do a podcast or RUclips ever week.
That would be epic. I'd love to watch/listen to that!
The King is Back
In Thralls voice, he should've said "Daddy's home!" Or something like that lol
Im here for Midnight
Lock'tar Ogar Metzen!!!!!!!!🎉❤
nobody can touch blizzard on cinematics....they are unreal:D great reaction
they are the best for sure!!! thanks!
finally an old gods related expans.... wait they said 3... !? daam😱
I know right!?! My mind was blown when they said 3. Was not expecting that
@@LadySurvival also the glowing thingy hanging from the ceiling i think its the sword too 😄
Sadly the Old Gods are officially dead ;c
@@felipealvarado8801 yeah it was kinda meh when they said that in the "what's next panel" but hopefully the void will bring something atleast close to how epic the old gods were...BIG hopefully tho
Not gonna lie, I was tearing up when I saw hpw emotional Chris was when he walked onto the stage
our king is back home
yesssss
Mr. "A Wizard Did It" himself!
I was crying too!
5:58 this part so good xD
My favorite racoon is back
manduin's become all grizzly
For real tho 😂
loving the sound of the warband thing! where you and your alts get to share reps n stuff instead of doing them over n over on each alt/ main - which is one thing thats annoying the hell out of me in dragonflight!!

"forgot about what sword?? This sword?? Nah just biding our time until the right time!" Got me excited to see where this will end....
he looks like blonde zac effron :) but i like it our boy has grown finaly :)
I'm so excited and I cried. Thank you for sharing your reaction!!
My void elf might have a conflict of interest in midnight tho lol, i am from the void after all
All them hints or callbacks to arthas in that scene made me wonder. Is Anduin going to betray us?
hes definitely become a lot darker, and theres been soo many hints at void creeping in on him
Chris could sell a ketchup popsicle to a woman wearing white gloves. I'd follow that man anywhere.
haha this comment is so strange but so accurate too XD
If anyone can bring retail back it's Metzen for sure
Just wondering, shud I start to download current retail wow expansion? Or just wait until this new expansion release?
It will take a while cause its for fall 2024, still dragonfly its not bad like the last two expansions, its fun and have interesting things, but nothing compare to legion or wrath of the lich king
after watching the cinematic, I felt like this should have been a natural continuation of legion and I worry that bfa, shadowlands and in part dragonflight did irreversible damage to WoW, like there's no hope
I totally feel what you mean. They let it go way too long without addressing the sword and I feel like a lot of weird stuff happened in bfa and shadowlands for sure :p
@@LadySurvival What Sword?
Shadowlands were necessary. It tied to the whole Jailer lore that was hinted since Wrath.
Plus I do believe his actions in the raid are what truly awoke Azeroth
I wish I could get to know you better, regards from Spain! :)
What did the guy yell out at like 12:47? I can't make it out.
Metzen out here like a WWE announcer.
Oh I know right xD he's hardcore epic
is it just me or does the start of that music theme when they look at the sword at
19:38 sounds like the jailers theme
It is a hint of the Domination theme, yes
Daddy's home from buying smokes....
FOR THE HORDE.
FOR THE ALLIANCE.
FOR AZEROTH!
🔥🔥
what sword?
The big reason I stopped playing WoW is because they literally have no more cinematics to keep you invested and transported into the story. Don't need anything crazy like Final Fantasy but cut the quest lines into chapters and give us some cinematic candy.
pretty cool and dramatic
Why does this whole panel remind me of Marvel’s “Phases”, I hope it works out and blizzard is able to deliver again.
I bet he hated Shadowlands ,he probably thought what are they doing? Glad he's back.
yea for real tho XD
and everything that happened with Sylvanas and Arthas.. big oof.
WOW PLAYERS KEKW
Damn, i had tears in my eyes as well. Been playing since 2004. And this is first time i see LadySurvival, and this might sound cringe, but she instantly inspired me to find a women like her and not feel any shame in the process.
thank you so much!!!
I lost my shit watching it earlier
WTFFFFFFF ELUNE ¡¡¡¡¡
this the only video on this lol
Wow.
That's a red flag.
Great
Wish he would have had a hand in Dragonflight I loved it but would have been better with him
Sword? What sword?
Nah... but for realz..Can be huge, can be game-kill.
Haha ikr xD
Yeaaaa I feel that. Same with the last couple xpacs. I think we all went in with high hopes and it turned out kind of meh. But with Metzen back, this could be huge for real now
Stephen Amell looks great.
omg looks just like him haha
you can tell anduin is a broken man after what happened to him
Our Lady Sylvanas changed Anduin forever, she made him a man
so true. cant wait to see them interact again.
"She made him a man" You're giving her way to much credit. You're acting like Varian, Jaina, Khadgar, Thrall, Genn, Baine, Wrathion, Saurfang and Velen didn't exist lol
@@FrostbiteDigital haha that Genn is all about wrong decisions and personal feelings... as much as i respect others mentioned and they treated him well as someone who is on the rise, but only Lady Sylvanas knew how to shift him from a boy to man.

Poooooooo chris metzen
omg love Chris! I cried like a bitch with a skinned knee!
Not sold. Played since BC cancelled both my subs after SL and taking a look at the next xpac. I could care less about flying dragons. The story telling became too WOKE and saving the universe every other day became absurd. WOW was hanging by a thread for me after Blizzard killed off Varian. That thread's name was Anduin. When they sent him to seek "wisdom" from Sylvanas and go sulk in the desert for a few years, that was the last straw for me. He had nothing to reproach himself for. If anyone should be having a crisis of conscience it should be the banshee queen. I see Shalamayne and I hear Josh Keaton's voice, but that's not Anduin anymore.
