Given how long it's been since i've watched your early parts of Sylvanas Story i'll gladly watch this, thanks Nobbel!
I'm happy this full analysis video came out. I didn't know when Sylvanas' story was gonna end.
😮@@IsaiahWayne2104
Nobbel, you are carrying the weight of the Lore community on your mighty shoulders. I love all you do and the hard work 💟
Finally, the Nobbel Cut is released, for one of my favorite characters
Sylvy loyalist for life. Just waiting til she says "take back my city."
❤
Sylvanas did nothing wrong! Change my mind lmao
As a new player she’s one of my favorite characters and cannot wait till the day we see her again! Thank you for your amazing work on these videos 🫶🏼
I heard she still stalks the maw with a tire track on her face. As the writers threw her under the bus!
Well done. I never had a problem with Sylvanas' heel turn during Shadowlands. She's always been very self-centered and focuses just on her wants and needs. I'm actually surprised there was a big uproar by the community over it.
Same here honestly. Maybe I just didnt have as much attachment to her cause I never played OG warcraft but it always felt like she was eventually going to make a truly evil move a la Garrosh. Then it felt inevitable once she was named Warchief.
It just felt in Legion they were trying to build on what happened when she jumped off Icecrown and advance her character development much more than they ended up doing. Seeing that in Legion to the complete 180 in BFA was jarring. Shadowlands' story having to share space with the writers trying to explain that 180 was annoying (and not done well). Also, they had just done a "bad" warchief story. They killed off Voljin to do nothing with her, as well. Lot of reasons for people to be annoyed.
@@chase5436 did you think sylvanas was going to make a "good" warchief 🤣
Finally an update about our cornerstone character of whole Warcraft
Nobbel. Thank you so much for making this video. The story of Sylvannas has always been my favourite and having left the game in BFA, I have missed so much. So thank you for bringing me up to date.
Thank you Nobbel! I had really lost track of my favourite character's story after the Mak'gora, and I had heard such bad things about her story in Shadowlands that I just avoided it. This compilation really helped, especially the Shadowlands story arch, I just skipped that entire expack as I couldn't relate, didn't feel like warcraft.
very well said !
My favorite character.Thank you so much for this video.
I just finished watching your Sylvanas Windrunner lore from 9 years ago, and I'm so thankful you took the time to compile her lore till now. Excellent videos.
She WoW official *Mary Sue* .. she up there with "Harley Quinn, Marvel's Captain Marvel and Rey" from Star Wars ..
honey wake up, almost 4 hour Sylvanas lore drop
tysm for uploading these, im new to wow and am so confused by all the other videos from other people, but can understand yours completely And the fact that you cover everything and update your videos is amazing!!
This is the movie they should have made. The story they should have told in the Warcraft movie.
I'll be completely honest, several years back around the time BFA was a ways along, I got so fed up with how badly the direction for Sylvanas' story had gone and decided to remind myself of how much better it used to be by playing through Warcraft 3 again. However, after I finished it, I've come to realize something that now pains me to acknowledge.
Her writing has always been pretty bad.
Playing her story again, I now realize that I was honestly fonder of the basic concept and idea of the character rather than the character itself. A revenge storyline involving a past victim of Arthas who uses his own armies and weapons against him in an anti-hero style rebellion had a lot of promise and delivered on it in almost every way... except the writing.
I mean, we're talking about the same character that decided it was a smart idea to recruit an obviously treacherous and untrustworthy Dreadlord into her ranks and is then surprised when he betrays her later, and then monologues to Arthas instead of shooting him when she had the chance.
Can we really be surprised that a character that does these things would go on to be the character she became later?
None of Warcraft's characters and stories are particularly groundbreaking at the narrative level. A lot of the most beloved characters from this universe are based on archetypes in a fantasy setting, hence why you enjoy the idea of a character instead of the character itself. This is a fundamental element of archetypal story telling and for the most part, it was done well enough in Warcraft.
@@VictusPrime The characters began as archetypes, but I reckon the way they were utilized breathed new life into them. Arthas's dark turn, Thrall's pledge for peace, Jaina's rise in leadership, and Illidan's redemption were all pretty straightforward story arcs, but the details involved were what elevated them.
But Sylvanas, unlike the other characters, really didn't seem to have as much focus on her overall direction in the story outside of just hating Arthas. And I reckon because of this, they left way too much blank canvas for the fans to unknowingly fill in themselves, leading to the contrasting takes on her early character.
I've been waiting for this one for years, Nobbel. Thank you
Such an amazing story, thanks for putting it all together.
At this point your channel should really be called ''Loremaster Nobbel''
The amount of lore you've covered is astounding. And thats coming from a wiki nerd xD
My favorite character aside from Arthas. While Shadowlands really fumbled her character (especially in game) I think she is left at a very reasonable place between the epilog quests and her book. Honestly, with The Jailers entire arc it wrote her arc into a corner. I hope if/when they bring her back (expecting when we have to try to talk Alleria off the edge) it's with respect and a purpose.
3h42 ? Just finish to watch and I will press play again. There's no better company than Nobbel while questing in the game.
Thanks to you for making videos with passion.
Thank you so much for your awesome narration and this diligent compilation! 🙏
People have good criticisms for the story but.. some places.. well, I had a few weeps watching.. You got me.
I have been listening to the book on audible over and over again, and just been waiting for this video to finally come 🤩 And I do recommend listening to the audio book, since it's narrated by the amazing Patty Mattson whom voices Sylvanas 🥰
"you cannot kill the Lich King, not here, not until the Shadowlands trailer!"
Watched your videos for years always nail the lore, keep it up !
The book Sylvanas was amazing! I finished it in a couple days and want her to come back so badly!
I love these videos I put them on at work like a audio book and learn soo much about WoW lore! Since BFA I’ve hated Sylvanas this video helped me understand why she is the way she is, honestly this video makes the expansion make more sence why she made such drastic decisions!! Anyways this video rocks thanks for the awesome content can’t wait for the full story of Illidan!!!
Glad you're keeping to updating these :D
Also love the new thumbnail :D
Amazing how such a great character could get ruined so quickly.
I love love love Sylvanas ❤❤❤❤
Was just gonna put together a playlist to sleep to, thanks nobbel
Fantastic work friend
As I told you on twitch for many years, Sylvanas is bae
You're right about that, especially by the end turning into complete "bae".
I wonder if after the World Soul Saga, which will be around 10 years since Shadowlands. If that's long enough for the old Nostalgia effect to kick in for SL.
If we will go back, only to find out The Primus was behind it all along & we helped give him the Crown of Wills made from those who defied Domination magic.
A work around to retcon a lot of the bad from Shadowlands, trying to rewrite it into a better story, deliver what was promised in the first place & go with the theories/story that the community came up with from the story we got. That theorized "dropped story".
SL isn't bad but Covid REALLY hurt it. You can literally see where content was cut, especially in the final raid which is obviously 2 raids smashed together to let them move the team over to DF. I honestly feel WoD and SL "classic" versions should do "all the changes" as in have the team go back in and add the missing quests and raids.
I find it so sacrilegious that she gets to continue while Arthas Menethil gets no redemption, no continuation, nothing. He is just gone. So annoying. If she can return from the maw, then so should the true lich king. Smh so frustrating
no she will never return for now.
it was uther's fault that broke laws of the afterlife and throw arthas's soul into maw while devos did nothing wrong.
It's such a shame that things ended up like they did because this story didn't have to be bad. Listening it now it most certainly isn't. This could have worked if they actually bothered to represent this in game and with few changes like making situation of Nathanos much greater focus during 9.1. There is a version of Shadowlands where we had genuinely interesting villains that genuinely made us question which side we should be fighting for and supporting factions that equally are worth preserving after we've helped them to make some changes.
In some wars you use spies to find out the defence abilities of the enemy. In the invasion of Quel'Thalas Sylvanas just tell her enemy, how to get through.
It's crazy how accurate premonitions are when they're written after the events they're predicting.
Coming back to this I really like to think Sylvanas truly cares about Anduin, and I live for that.
Fantastic.
Sylvanas has always been one of my favourite characters, along with Tyrande. Seeing them face off was... something.
I have a lot to say about the direction her character took over the years. A lot of negative things to say. Ways that the story was delivered, her decisions, the logic behind some of her actions. But her current position is admittedly decent.
I hope she's brought back in Midnight - perfect for the reunion of the Elven tribes, while also not being too soon. I want her return to have purpose and impact. I want there to be a compelling reason. And I sincerely, dearly hope, that whatever direction she takes when she's returned, is that it is better written and better delivered than the one she took during bfa and shadowlands.
the extra subtitles make this video that much better "PEW PEW PEW"
the storyline about the legendary cloak of pandaria maybe ? :P
Who did Jailer have whisper into Hammuul Runetotem's ear to tell him to convince Thrall to trust Sylvanas? 😆
Here we go.... Lol. Time for a wild ride!
must watch with captions/subtitles on. the stuff they say is crazy.
Bolvar really need to learn from Godfrey that the best way to kill a zombie is literally a boomstick shot to the head
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
will sylvanas' story finally come to an end.
I'm just waiting for Sylvanas to say "I'm out of rum and why is all the Rum gone" and then immediately turn to johnny depp and slap him
Sylvanas being better than Alleria at hunting and saving from lynx is my most hated "retcon" about Alleria's character.
Love you
❤❤❤
If anyone wants a shorter summary of Sylvanas' lore, here it is:
"Cool character but then BFA and Reforged happened and I lost all interest/hope in Warcraft ever being worth paying attention to again."
Actually explained it better than Blizzard. They need to hire you
Me being back to wow also means me being back to nobbel the noble❤
2:17:57 What about the short story Edge of Night???
Anyone NOT using subtitles is missing a lot of funny snark.
Going off what Uther said I wonder what Arthas intended to do with Sylvanas.
The only thing I wish is there were captions. It’s a bit hard for me to understand sometimes bc hard of hearing
Had to dig up some old harddrives to put the old scripts together BUT once youtube is done autotiming it, should have subtitles. Won't be perfect, but hopefully will help!
I have the Sylvanas book. Will this spoil a lot?
From sylvanas book? Bit bout early days/fam and allegiance with jailer. Id say if you worried for spoilers, finish book first 😁
@@Nobbel87 that’s what I plan on doing then.
"Questions left behind in the shadowlands"
I always thought Vareesa is the eldest and Alleria the youngest.
Might be the white hair or how unpredictable Alleria is.
In 3:17:46 how can I have this shoulder transmog?Great Video BTW ❤
You mean the shoulders on my night elf? That's from their heritage armor questline: www.wowhead.com/quest=75890/the-clarion-call
looks like danuser is gone for now.
yes because danuser is a bad writer hack and hacker for now.

''watzegjevos'' geweldige naam XD
Wow, I am early! Consider adding 'your videos' to a filter too king, you got some butt bots!
Got m, thanks!
@@Nobbel87 Anytime cobba, thanks for the lore!
Sadly we will never see a good Sylvanas story again.
i just realized they fucked up BIG TIME with a way to help anduin out with his plight. High Lord Tirion Fordring also had the same plight in his life, and this would have been the perfect opportunity to see Tirion not as a paladin of the light, but as a person whose faith was restored
A guide on how to ruin one of the most iconic characters in your franchise.
We all saw is going down hill when Thrall went soft in cataclysm
@@baileygregg6567yes i would argue thrall literally was butchered, at least they took slyvanas to her end, even if we weren't the happiest with the story, im not mad at it. Im not the story writers, blizz is.
@@bmo14lax too bad sales and story are a bit far apart. Either way fond memories for me were my Dark Lady, Garrosh (when we needed that kind of orc), and Vol’jin💀 all thee make me glad to side Horde for what I think was close to 10 years.
Greetings, dreadflords.
RIP to Garrosh's memorable line..
all because some terrible parenting letting a child play a T game and got upset when they encountered naughty words.
*surprised pikachu meme*
and arthas.
Man, it is setup SO WELL to have 3 factions, Undead being separate from all... perhaps they do it in WoW 2 💀
I still don't understand what the jailers plans were and why sylvanas changed her mind. It seems he did actually just want to remake the unfair rules??? That or he was trying to fight a bigger threat?? I'm not seeing the issue
WoW dyed when they messed up with Sylvannas Windrunner.
Is sylvanas a hunter or what spec is she?
Ranger, but for playable classes closer to a hunter aye
I would be Sylvanas thrall
I love you
Is there a timestamp that shows when any of alex asfrasiabi or steve danusers ideas begin? Id like to stop and imagine the story ended there
Why? What's your beef with those two? Alex did some work in Dire Maul, the Morladim quests and the playable Death Knights.
Nobbel spent a long time making this, so the least you can do is look up those two's work.
didnt genn cause silvarnis to go with the jailers plan
Sad how they pushed my fav charachter ever since w3 out of the story
Thats trashtalk
They did my boy Vul'jin dirty, just to ruin my second favorite faction leader immediately after...
shes such an amazing character, i just really wish they put more time into her story ! like most wow story writing is so shit, for example garrosh and thrall adn voljin and those others. i cant help it but think theyre lazy writers because shes a woman. blizzard is known for the sexism since ages ago and i really hope the new story of her shows her respect and makes her a good arc
Imagine...
AnyaTaylorJoy as SYLVANAS.😍
but arthas is also a brainwashed mind controlled pawn.
Nono. You see Arthas is a white male. Thus evil since birth.
I've enver heard the Sylvannas/Jailer thing before and WOW, is it ever forced. It's more forced than a 40 inch waist trying to squeeze into 6 inch pants.
SylvanasWindRunner *COULD* Save *BLIZZARD.* 🤔
(& I Have The "Idea")
Call me crazy or whatever, but I would love to see a love arc sparkling between Sylvanas and Anduin somewhere in between their journey through the maw, leading to Sylvanas finishing her mission successfully and Anduin finding his purpose again . They both returning as couple to whatever world we find ourselves at currently hence uniting the horde and alliance once and for all into . Then the Forsaken now seeing their leader 'betraying' them, feeling again, falling in love, they turn against the united faction leading to WoW 2.0 with the factions being The United Faction vs The Forsaken.
Sylvanas’ lore has always been wobbly but something changed beyond cataclysm and she stopped caring about her people. She became consumed by the desire for vengeance and lost herself.
They could have given her a cool exit when Tyrande had her by the throat but the story was written that Elune pulled the plug on the night warrior’s power.
Sylvanas said she would never serve but she has, ever since she came into the game as the leader of the forsaken. She occasionally has flashes of realisation to when she is serving but the writing perpetuates that she conveniently forgets that and goes back to serving the next flavour of the month.
Good lore, im sure the video is good but I can’t listen to this when you‘re constantly changing the pace at which you read out loud
mum said 1 more video
my man really game over himself because he doesnt want to be ruled by a furry
My favorite War-chief 🦇🖤💀 Started Ali, turned Horde BC and went PvPer never looked back.
Too bad after they took her “down” the game was not the same as Horde went l limp.
This is Golden 👌 thank you @Nobbel87
Offcorese they had to distroy the strongest and the best mythical character ever created in this world bye saying that War is not War and for all people outher who don't have inteligents stop crying and understand that WAR WILL ALWAYS BE WAR and everything is PERMITTED! She Understands everything and because of that she's the best. As for those who think this will be her end realize that she chose Tyranda because she felt and being in her shoes on the moment she told Tyranda that even Her God Elune is betraying her when that stupid and illogical justice it's right her power's are gone from her and she's saved by Yesera the dragon. No matter what everyone says or her character will be distroid bye stupid kid's who remake her character out there in Blizzard I will always know and the people will know what is the real Sylvanas windruner the greatest character there is there was there will ever be to the end and forever in infinity.
At long last, after all the horrible deeds she committed, Sylvanas Windrunner is facing her comeuppance. She’s finally being punished.
Arthas the one True King.
giving everything, even his own souls to save his people.
betrayed by his Family, his Friends and his developers.

you watch your mouth B..... lol. about fell out of my chair.
