I would pay hundreds, thousands of dollars to see a Blizzard cinematic film of this caliber!

[@watchdeesi9547]

I’d definitely go see it day one

[@jamesnelson5741]

I would sell my soul to the Void Lords to see a CGI movie like this.

[@watchdeesi9547]

i thought the warcraft movie wasnt even that bad@@jamesnelson5741

@@watchdeesi9547 I enjoyed it as well. Just didn't feel right for me for some reason

[@tcrzsppr3163]

@@watchdeesi9547 it wasn't bad, it was simply a terrible choice to animate, there were a lot more interesting stories for a Warcraft movie than what they showed us.
Even the war between the Draenei and the Orcs before coming to Azeroth would've been more interesting.

I feel this cinematic is quite literally setting the stage for Anduin to gain closure for his Shadowlands-related PTSD, and finally grow into the leader the Alliance will need to face the Void in the expansion after The War Within, "Midnight".
There may not be fighting here in this cinematic, but there will be soon.
I think it'd be perfect for Anduin to come face to face with Xal'atath, _Harbinger of the Void Lords,_ decide "You know what? I've faced worse", and Smite the crap out of her.

Think he’s gonna become a Paladin?

[@daviddunte2710]

Wow.... just holy shit... Your GF's reaction to this was priceless, so invested and such genuine reactions to Anduins facial expressions, like she was invested in his emotions.
To be blunt, you were very zug zug through the whole video.

[@watchdeesi9547]

It was a zug zug video, needs firepower

[@joveonlightbringer9684]

This was Metzen's "quiet, heartfelt moment leading to epic things".
I expect there will be at least one more cinematic before release, and that one will be full of action.

[@watchdeesi9547]

I hope he brings his flair to the action sequences, for the horde!!!

[@xoAyaanaox]

Several years have passed. Ofcourse Anduin he got older. he is around 28/30 here Storywise. :)
Anduin went through since he was a child. He has been through hell and back. They captured that, his pain, actually very well here in the trailer.

[@watchdeesi9547]

I think he is destined for great things

sword

[@watchdeesi9547]

Does it have a name?

[@popfloydplays788]

@@watchdeesi9547 Gorribal. It's the sword of Sargeras, the dark Titan. There's a cutscene where he stabs the planet, just look up "Antorus Ending Cinematic" on youtube and it should come up.
The cutscene is basically the conclusion of Warcrafts original story, spanning 20 years and leading up to the defeat of Sargeras. Here's the short version if you don't know anything about it. There was an old pantheon of cosmic gods called the Titans, and the strongest one(Sargeras) killed the rest because they disagreed with him on how to save the universe from the void that wanted to end all things. Sargeras wanted to wipe the universe clean and start from scratch, so he could completely control and monitor his new universe and remove any void corruption that pops up. Sargeras made the Legion, an infinite army of demons, to help wipe out life in the universe so he can start from scratch. PROBLEM is that involves killing us and genociding everything so he's a bad guy. Nearly all of the bad guys and major events in the story of Warcraft can be traced back to Sargeras in some way, and he's THE main bad guy behind the scenes.

anduin reminds me of a marine with ptsd and he hasnt got a chancce to heal his war wounds
