I imagined how pissed off Iridikron would be when he finds out that the Dark Heart he gave to Xal'atath back in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight is destroyed and that his dreams of Azeroth being freed from the Titans grasp all went up in smoke, I have no doubt in my mind that he'll eventually seek vengeance.
I'm just glad Anduin's sad phase is over.. Felt like he delivered lines in the exact same tearful voice for 1.5 expansions, it was getting really tiresome. The payoff was pretty well executed tho.
Canticle of sacrifice (and similar themes derived from it) is genuinely the best musical motif in the franchise, and I will die on that hill. It's use here simply reinforces that!
Everyone on the wheelchair, just like Drek'thar in Dragonflight. He should fuse with that chair and become Khadgartron! Or just float on it and shoot arcane beams
Everyone called it from the start. The only question was if blizzard actually were stupid enough to kill him or not. But of course they needed some wheelchair representation so that was the goal all along
@@Xamufam we closed the door to the shadowlands behind us as the expansion ended, we cant really canonically go back without some sort of special means.
Anduin: FSS do i really need use holy light one last time? FINE! Khadgar: Thank you Anduin... Anduin: im not my father! Wrathion: Oh lookie Khadgar is back? good work... my father is not..
I was never so happy to hear someone's theme to be honest. Having Anduin saving the day was a brilliant move, specially doing so thorugh the light. He's slowing becoming that better version of Varian we were promised long ago.
@@bigbangrafa8435 🤦 The whole point of the conversation he had in this very video is that he isn't his father but he doesn't need to be. He isn't "better Varian", he's Anduin.
Maybe it's just me but I think it's really neat that they made Khadgar look less like your typical old man and more like a young man who just instantly became old. Like he didn't age naturally but had a bunch of decades taken out of him all at once. Because of Medivh this man is like 40 going on 80 and I'm not sure what it is about the way he looks but they managed to capture it really well.
I remember his original character model introduced in TBC, he looked like a gaunt older wizard with a long white beard. When he was re-introduced in WoD, they gave him the Dadghar glow up.
Well its been a hot minute since I've been emotional over a cinematic xD That damned reunion with khadgar AND saving him with the very light Anduin was running from. Beautiful
This part was perfect for Anduin as this cutscene alone was moment of Redemption. Also, its interesting that Thrall finally admits that Varian was indeed a proud warrior, one that he has come to respect.
I'm sure Sylvanas told Alleria how Greymane shot at her important item while pretending to fight her and how mad she got. So now Alleria remembered and tried the same - it worked! Nice tactics. 10/10 Thanks Greymane.
He didn't " shoot at her" he lunged at her first knocked her down and she still had the lantern on her hip then he lunged at her again grabbed the lantern she shot at him again hit him in his upper right shoulder from the front then he got up while she was talken smack and he smashed the lantern
Totally, but that "Oh nooo Anduin and Khadgar died that early, HA sike!! They didn´t die ;)"-$hit was hardcore unnecessary (cause it was freakin obvious that both wouldn´t die that way... especially Anduin). So why this artificial drama from Activision? Everyone (except for some simple minds) could predict that fake §hit easily ://
@@Uouttooo Alleria wasn't able to sense archmage Drenden as Xal'atath, Xal is really master of disguise. Considering Anduin resurrected Khagdar, he is the real one for light magic will hurt Xal'atath.
Boooooring. I would rather Blizzard actually do something interested and kill off some of these characters. It makes it quite lame that all important NPCs are practically invincible.
Below the five minutes from the cardiac arrest he is not dead. He just healed his wounds and restarted his heart. We can do it too with just modern technology (well, not the “instantly heal wounds” part, but the entire premise of the emergency rooms is to make people survive even after a cardiac arrest).
In warcraft terms, "using the light" to resurrect allies jsut after they fell is not really raising someone from the Dead Not in a "necromancy kinda way" at least
It's nice to see Khadgar and Alleria together like this, they have knowen eachother and faught side by side since warcraft 2, so it makes sense they would be close friends and value eachother this much.
The fact that this is clearly a more uplifting variant of the music that played when Varian died is so god damn sick. Andiun finally realizing that he doesnt need to be his father to be a good king for the alliance and thus finally allowing himself to become great by himself. Finally some good writing bliz keep it up
People have been angry that it has taken Anduin so long to return to the light, that he has not gone to his mentors... and yet? Dude was trapped in the ream of death, twisted and tormented with the same domination magic that warped Arthas. Except that Anduin would have known, would have seen the similarities, thought that this was what had happened to Arthas, and if the Lich King was an unredeemable monster, than so to was he. He has not completely healed, but he is walking the path. Here is hoping they show him stumbling a bit, but still making progress, as mental wounds cut deeper than physical. And Khadgar thought fast and saved himself and in a way that wasn't a total asspull! Because hey, as he said, it was risky and he did end up dying (briefly) regardless. It actually made sense with what we knew of the Dark Heart and his own skill as an archmage.
Yeah Anduin was forced to take a back seat as he slaughtered everybody and everything in his path and hated the fact that he didn't feel bad about it at the time. For a kid who's sole purpose was to bring in peace to the world it must have been a complete strip down of your person and shattered his essence. That's not something you just walk away from. Thrall was the same way with his elemental issue and having to go through all his struggles with his wife to accept what happened to him and try to fix it.
Hmmm, actually, do you remember what Uther told Arthas before Arthas' pledging to become a paladin? Uther: “You are ready, Arthas. You have proven yourself time and again. You are worthy of the title of paladin. But remember, no one is ever truly ready. No one feels worthy. We do what we must, because it is right.” Maybe Anduin's moment in this vid mirrors that of what Uther said? Before Shadowlands Anduin was completely sure of himself and kind of simply 'inherited' a high position and great power without actually earning any of it, but now, after struggling I believe he will truly become not a priest like his child self, and not a warrior like his father, but an actual Paladin, and I believe that Uther's part about nobody ever truly being ready or feeling worthy, but doing what is right because we must, shows exactly what Anduin was struggling with - after being a perfectionist idealist as a child, he struggled with being flawed and having real struggles with himself, and finally coming to do what is right despite doubts.
Okay, tears here. Again. As they were standing there, Khadgar dead, I kept saying "do it! Just reach out and do it." And...Anduin did, bless his heart. My two favorites, safe and...mostly sane. I need a chair like Khadgar's in game, I'm in one in real life, having one in game would be so damned awesome. Wonder if one of the devs would gift this granny with one.
Well Xala got banished but she will return and we got Khadgar. Clever trick old fox to transmute yourself. No wonder you outsmarted Medivh. He would be proud of you Khad to see you outwit an Old Void entity
Just wanted to say thank you so much for all the work you do for these lore videos, they are appreciated. I like being able to keep up with the ongoing lore, and your videos are so well put together. Cheers!
Thank you for the support, I’m glad you like them. It’s my way of helping people keep up with the lore & story, whether they still play or don’t have the time to play anymore.
Me yelling at the screen when Khadgar comes out: "Heals. HEALS! Fucking healer is just standing there!" Heals!" *finally the healer starts healing Me: "YES!"
Fk, I just played the scenes with the battle in Hallowfall and the Kadghar, Alleria, Anduin scene. Music and setting excelent. And a tear in the end. GG Blizz!
“I’m not aiming for you” they really know how to make it feel like a bad action movie. Also, all the buildup around the dark heart and Khadgar "dying" immediately resolved, no meaningful payoff and everyone lives happily ever after. I really can't believe a team of professional writers come up with this stuff.
omg.....thank the light anduin finally forgives himself and stops blaming himself and he was able to save khadgar. i feared if khadgar was truely dead then mages would never feel the same ever again....ty Anduin.
Gave me the same energy as Hawkeye vs Iron Man in Civil War when Clint was like "Just can't seem to miss" as he proceeds to miss on purpose as he fires at Iron Man to distract him to which he responds with "Well first time for everything." "Made ya look."
I was wondering if something involving the dark heart would occur. I mean, for all her careful plans, Xal'atath does seem to have a habit of hsving the dark heart out and about for all to see. You'd think she'd have anticipated something like this.
I love Alleria and her concept, but I'm really getting disappointed by the way they're pacing her story. She overcame all doubts in a 5 min cinematic and now did this to one clever villain, in a minute! that's not a good pacing in my opinion
Anduin is one of the very rare few lore characters who can resurrect, he resurrected Varian in one of the books, seeing him do it again is amazing, I'm glad to see Anduin is back Edit: Can't believe I forgot about his mass rez of the Alliance forces at lorderon
See I expected Khadgar to survive, no body and they cut away from him.. The Queen Neferress being alive but twisted into this.. weird abomination thing was a surprise though.
@@Athelarius She's probably going to be stuck like that but it would be cool to have a Hybrid old god Nerubian that could possibly channel some of those powers to help them. Turn the revolution into a full blown coup after the first raid.
THANK YOU ANDUIN I CAN NOT EXPLAIN MY Gratitude for bringing my guardian…my…archmage and my Mentor thank you Anduin Wrynn I owe you for this and I will help you bring Xal’atath down together❤❤❤ And thank you blizzard for not letting my heart shatter like it did with Varok Saurfang I could not bare lose another great character….😢❤❤ And thank you @Athelarius for always posting these amazing moments and cutscene I hope it just keeps on coming and becoming better and greater, you made me heart whole again just to witness Khadgar return to us once more ❤️❤️❤️ thank you ^^
Glad you’re enjoying these, doing the best to keep everyone updated with the story after all these years! And I’m glad to see Khadgar back and well, and Anduin embracing the light again. Best moment in War Within and best cinematic yet
You do know Arthas was a villain, right? And unlike a few others he never had any noble intentions. Furthermore, Blizzard has reiterated over and over again that every action he took in service to the Scourge and later as the Lich King himself was entirely of his own free will. It was in a way quite fitting that his soul ended up being used as fuel by the very evil he sought to control and exploit for his own ends.
@@Ultimaton100 he was also a major driving force in wow's popularity since it's inception. To say that his end in the Shadowlands was a *little* insulting would be an understatement
I want one too, I have one in real life. I would pull out the mage for that, or a priest. Heck, my main is a Paladin, I would have to do some rigging to figure out how, but fighting in floating, that could be righteous fun.
I'm starting to think... This is a spoiler: the developers said that Xalatat will not die. So she either runs away, becomes a half-ally, or gets locked up. Where was she locked up, oh, in a dagger. Who has that dagger now?
This cinematic makes zero sense. You did ALL THAT to get this little trinket and you didn't even bother to dodge the arrow? And the thing gets one shotted? All that build up for Xalatath immediately went to dust. She is just another stupid little villan just from this one cinematic. Congrats.
This. Absolutely comical how Xala acts all tough and smug and the very next frame screams into the void. I thought with Dasnuser gone, we would stop getting stupid and lazy plot development, but here we are - Anduin pulls light out of his ass to put Khadgar into an arcane wheelchair. Copium addicts be telling you how amazing this is and it made them cry LOL 😂
This misses me on two points. It underplays the moment of Anduin reconnecting with the LIght. They didn't need to turn him into a drama queen for that scene but a bit more glow effect would have better suited the occasion. Alleria got more bang for the buck when she zapped Xalatath's gizmo. The gentle smile he bestowed on Khadgar was a nice touch. Anduin has never been prideful and understatement between old friends speaks volumes. My bigger issue is the insult to Varian's kingship. His sword is not an instrument of evil. He did not kill without purpose. A leader must sometimes choose force when reason and sweet words do not secure the peace. Are we to forget how Varian secured escape for the remnants of his army at the cost of his own life? When Anduin asked "What do I do now?" Varian replied "What a king must do." Anduin is not Varian but he is a king. He can lead without a sword in his hand, but he will need a warrior as his righthand man.
I was roaring with excitement. Seeing the bird I was like WAIT- HE'S ALIVE Then I was like "WAIT IS HE JUST GOING TO DIE AGAIN?" And then ANDUIN and just-AAAAAAAAAAAH I'm a sucker for this. Khadgar was my favorite character for a long time and Anduin became my new favorite overtime (watching him grow and fall and grow again). So this was real powerful for me.
Your reaction is literally the same as mine step by step they had us at the first half then with the finish it becomes one of the best cinematics to date
Resurrection is an incredible feat in lore. We do it in gameplay all the time; but lore wise, it takes an incredible tie to the Light to perform. Very rare. Anduin had done it once before with Calia Menethil.
Can you please put the word spoiled in front of these cinematics? I got a notification on my computer which completely spoiled me as I worked through the campaign . It's a small change that would save many people. Very infuriating to see.
ok imagine this: Aleria at the last moments of the expansion fighting Xal'atath, she is losing, bow broken, has a few seconds left, portal opens and Sylvanas appears. I would probably faint
Oh wow what a super shocking and not at all obvious piece of story writing. Thank you wow writing team for blessing us with this riveting piece of narrative in place of actual content to play.
Wait he turned himself into pure arcane energy to protect himself within all the void energy? I definitely couldn't possibly imagine a world where he came back a little bit of void corruption....
Anduin finally remembered he is Paladin and not Death Knight so he got a Ressurection spell in spellbook.. Anduin played Death Knight for a couple of days and now he forgot rotations..

Something dawned on me, who did Turalyon leave on the Stormwind throne when he went galivanting off to kill spiders with his honey love?
Why did you spoil it for basically half of the world?
i am glad anduin finally solved his light-erection problems.
Now Thrall just needs to solve his shaman erection problems.
Now if only Thrall got over his Elemental Dysfunction
Mushoku Tensei vibes?
Dude became Rudeus Greyrat😂
Now they just need to fix his new dogshit character design. Losing the flop hair cut and shaving the beard would do nicely.
Anduin's theme started playing is so beautiful, it give me goosebumps when he called the light again
MY favorite theme from Legion, just so serene and valorous at the same time
I'm just glad Anduin's sad phase is over.. Felt like he delivered lines in the exact same tearful voice for 1.5 expansions, it was getting really tiresome. The payoff was pretty well executed tho.
Canticle of sacrifice (and similar themes derived from it) is genuinely the best musical motif in the franchise, and I will die on that hill. It's use here simply reinforces that!
Khadgsr in a arcane wheelchair just tops everything off
Needs to be a mage mount!
Professor X
Everyone on the wheelchair, just like Drek'thar in Dragonflight. He should fuse with that chair and become Khadgartron! Or just float on it and shoot arcane beams
It even floats!?
i didnt watch the full video i thought this was a joke THIS IS INSANE
Khadgar has become the Professor Charles Xavier of Warcraft. Professor K 😂
PROFESSOR K 💀

But of course they needed some wheelchair representation so that was the goal all along
You did tho
Ever since shadowlands death means nothing in wow
Idk I don’t really hate the idea of khadgar being in a wheelchair, kinda fits his character of granddadgar
@@Xamufam we closed the door to the shadowlands behind us as the expansion ended, we cant really canonically go back without some sort of special means.
Khadgar: "You just wanted to see me die, didn't you?"
Anduin: "Hmhmhmhm... I will never tell!"
Lol
I get that reference
Anduin just wanted to play with our emotion for a few sec before his res spell got off cd
*How it should have went*
Anduin: FSS do i really need use holy light one last time? FINE!
Khadgar: Thank you Anduin...
Anduin: im not my father!

I was never so happy to hear someone's theme to be honest. Having Anduin saving the day was a brilliant move, specially doing so thorugh the light. He's slowing becoming that better version of Varian we were promised long ago.
That's mah boi! He did it!

The whole point of the conversation he had in this very video is that he isn't his father but he doesn't need to be. He isn't "better Varian", he's Anduin.

*singing* "I am fourty, going on eighty!"
He was always kinda energetic and goofy, with a little of proper seriousness of an A+ grades student
I remember his original character model introduced in TBC, he looked like a gaunt older wizard with a long white beard.
When he was re-introduced in WoD, they gave him the Dadghar glow up.
By the time of WoD its more that he aged into how he looks.
Only as old as you feel. Of course that arcane cream he applies on every night must be doing wonders. Knowledge is power should be his branding.
Getting spoiled by this youtube thumbnail taught me what real priorities are.
Campain > Life.
Well its been a hot minute since I've been emotional over a cinematic xD
That damned reunion with khadgar AND saving him with the very light Anduin was running from. Beautiful
My favorite cinematic so far. Emotional, good use of classic themes, cinematography a masterpiece.
This part was perfect for Anduin as this cutscene alone was moment of Redemption.
Also, its interesting that Thrall finally admits that Varian was indeed a proud warrior, one that he has come to respect.
Varian was also beginning to let go of his prejudice...then he got disenchanted by Gul'Dan.
Varian was a monster, but he was beginning to see a better way just before he died. He probably went to Revendreth.
@@Ultimaton100 I genuinely was pissed they never showed him until the mourneblade scene. He 100% would have been the new Primus.
@@Ultimaton100 You seriously think he went to Revendreth after selflessly sacrificing himself to save the rest of the Alliance at the Broken Shore?
As a honorable warrior he surely would end in maldraxus
I'm sure Sylvanas told Alleria how Greymane shot at her important item while pretending to fight her and how mad she got. So now Alleria remembered and tried the same - it worked! Nice tactics. 10/10 Thanks Greymane.

@@arielbatiancila6320It was abhorrent writing just resurrecting Khadgar.
About time Anduin realizes the big lesson here. We all aspire to be someone but can never truly be them. We can only be ourselves.
Not me fist pumping in the air seeing Anduin use his light again and his theme is one I’ll never forget it always makes me emotional 🥹
KHADGAR YAY! He is just as smart as I hoped he would be. Transmuting himself into pure arcane energy... now that's a brilliant move
Like with the *"Blink/Teleport"-Ability* but for longer than just a few Splitseconds.
Boooooring. I would rather Blizzard actually do something interested and kill off some of these characters.
It makes it quite lame that all important NPCs are practically invincible.
Anduin and kad needed more dialogue in this. Like, anduin just raised a human from the DEAD.

"Where did I leave that city?" Oh no, Grandpa forgot where he left his house! Nevermind the keys!

Exactly. I was like "This is your moment!"
So you’re just as bad a writers as the blizzard team, eh?
"Oh... right... I can ressurect people..."

“I’m not aiming for you” they really know how to make it feel like a bad action movie.
Also, all the buildup around the dark heart and Khadgar "dying" immediately resolved, no meaningful payoff and everyone lives happily ever after. I really can't believe a team of professional writers come up with this stuff.
omg.....thank the light anduin finally forgives himself and stops blaming himself and he was able to save khadgar. i feared if khadgar was truely dead then mages would never feel the same ever again....ty Anduin.
As a grown ass man this made me tear up
If you tear up for this then you could hardly call youself a man let alone grown 😂
@@mrexclusive3271 Dude coming to check every cinematic to be its #1 hater lmao no lifer
I'm sorry no one told you that it's ok to cry and feel emotions beyond anger. I hope you get better. ❤️ @@mrexclusive3271
@@mrexclusive3271 Jesus dude. It aint that deep, Do you lock all your manly feelings away behind that tight shirt you wear?
Many tears were shed.
“I’m not aiming for you” bruh
such savagery in those words, simply beautiful
Cliche as fuck lmao
Gave me the same energy as Hawkeye vs Iron Man in Civil War when Clint was like "Just can't seem to miss" as he proceeds to miss on purpose as he fires at Iron Man to distract him to which he responds with "Well first time for everything."
"Made ya look."
I was wondering if something involving the dark heart would occur. I mean, for all her careful plans, Xal'atath does seem to have a habit of hsving the dark heart out and about for all to see. You'd think she'd have anticipated something like this.
I love Alleria and her concept, but I'm really getting disappointed by the way they're pacing her story. She overcame all doubts in a 5 min cinematic and now did this to one clever villain, in a minute! that's not a good pacing in my opinion
Finally all these characters talk about other people like they've known them for years.
Anduin is one of the very rare few lore characters who can resurrect, he resurrected Varian in one of the books, seeing him do it again is amazing, I'm glad to see Anduin is back
Edit: Can't believe I forgot about his mass rez of the Alliance forces at lorderon
WHICH BOOK PLZ
@@junito1957 I can be mistaken but i think it's in Wolfheart of Richard a.knaak
@@ziedmelayah2670 THANKS FOR THE REPLY
Those in game cinematics looks crazier and crazier...good job
Bravo to Blizzard, masterpiece cinematics, voice acting and art style, enjoying war within so far!
OHHHH I JUST CRIED!!! Thank you ANDUIN!!! 😊
Many years were shed. Most emotional and well down cinematic the last 2-3 years
Wonderful ending for the first chapter of the first chapter!
Hopefully we heal Khadgar fully, taking him off that chair.
probably not, its for the rl wheelies.
@@DerXavia Got to check them boxes
He should fuse with that chair and become Khadgartron! Or just float on it and shoot arcane beams
Khadgar sounded evil when he said this isnt the real fight
See I expected Khadgar to survive, no body and they cut away from him..
The Queen Neferress being alive but twisted into this.. weird abomination thing was a surprise though.
Well, she's back with her people whom are still loyal now; though it remains to be seen how much of their queen is actually left within her.
Her fate is far worse, curious if they can extract the blood and revert her back to her old form.
@@Athelarius She's probably going to be stuck like that but it would be cool to have a Hybrid old god Nerubian that could possibly channel some of those powers to help them. Turn the revolution into a full blown coup after the first raid.
We got Anduin finding the light again before GTA 6..
THANK YOU ANDUIN I CAN NOT EXPLAIN MY Gratitude for bringing my guardian…my…archmage and my Mentor thank you Anduin Wrynn I owe you for this and I will help you bring Xal’atath down together❤❤❤
And thank you blizzard for not letting my heart shatter like it did with Varok Saurfang I could not bare lose another great character….😢❤❤
And thank you @Athelarius for always posting these amazing moments and cutscene I hope it just keeps on coming and becoming better and greater, you made me heart whole again just to witness Khadgar return to us once more ❤️❤️❤️ thank you ^^
Damn fucking straight he ain’t that old this man have still some fight in him and his purpose is still not fulfilled 🥹❤️❤️
Glad you’re enjoying these, doing the best to keep everyone updated with the story after all these years! And I’m glad to see Khadgar back and well, and Anduin embracing the light again. Best moment in War Within and best cinematic yet
Fully agree! I was SO worried he was dead dead, but he's back! Let's hope they don't put him through this again!❤
I never thought I would cry with wow
This cutscene did it
What a Happy Hopeful Ending (: Glad to have Kadgar back and Anduin getting self up again.
Definitely a good ending for launch and a really great way to start the expansion! Looking forward to the next patch
So she can't hit Xalatath with arrow but she can hit object that she is wearing...
Yeaaaah. Even after announcing it, lmao.
Kind of annoying when all the early game McGuffins get damaged/destroyed by a glancing blow.
Helya's lantern was another case of this.
@@jennywakeman5049it's more of a plot point. With it cracked it can cause all sorta nasty stuff.
Well well well Xal'atath. We maybe unable to kill you, but we sure do as hell will undress you with some void arrows 😅😂😂😂
Every plot is vulnerable to the power of the script. As is told shall be done.
About time Alleria destroys the Dark Heart.
And it's also about time we see a revival in a cinematic.
I mean, Anduin did cast Mass Rez at the Battle for Lordaeron.
@@rcslyman8929 Trailers don't count.
She just cracked it, I'm curious how this will affect Xalatath and the host of old god power she has collected.
Ouch, I'm sad I saw this video. It's not out in Europe yet... what a spoiler.
We got Anduin back, we got Khadgar back. Everything is good in the world again.
Khadgar has been one of my favorite characters from WoW for years. His humor is spot-on. His humor is hilarious.
okay blizzard. we will not burn you to the ground today. just remember, we are still pissed off about Arthas' soul
The writing for this expansion became like Shadowlands.
You do know Arthas was a villain, right? And unlike a few others he never had any noble intentions. Furthermore, Blizzard has reiterated over and over again that every action he took in service to the Scourge and later as the Lich King himself was entirely of his own free will. It was in a way quite fitting that his soul ended up being used as fuel by the very evil he sought to control and exploit for his own ends.
@@Ultimaton100 he was also a major driving force in wow's popularity since it's inception. To say that his end in the Shadowlands was a *little* insulting would be an understatement
Anduin....by the Light! It answers! Praise be.
i m in a wheelchair in real life and i have to say...DAM I WANT THAT PURPLE ONE FOR MY SHAMAN SO BAD as a Mount XD
I want my monk to tank in one of those, as if they were gear equipped in legs slot.
I want one too, I have one in real life. I would pull out the mage for that, or a priest. Heck, my main is a Paladin, I would have to do some rigging to figure out how, but fighting in floating, that could be righteous fun.
@@vancour this is the best answer ever
From what I can tell, 80% of the playerbase is in wheelchairs.
@@txdmskOverweight maybe?
I'm starting to think...
This is a spoiler: the developers said that Xalatat will not die.
So she either runs away, becomes a half-ally, or gets locked up. Where was she locked up, oh, in a dagger. Who has that dagger now?
AHHH Aduin has obtained the light again!
Good thing I went on vacation before finishing the story just to have the title ruin it for me. Good job 👍
Our little boy has come so far but I feel the story still has ways to go, our king!
This cinematic makes zero sense. You did ALL THAT to get this little trinket and you didn't even bother to dodge the arrow? And the thing gets one shotted? All that build up for Xalatath immediately went to dust. She is just another stupid little villan just from this one cinematic. Congrats.
This. Absolutely comical how Xala acts all tough and smug and the very next frame screams into the void. I thought with Dasnuser gone, we would stop getting stupid and lazy plot development, but here we are - Anduin pulls light out of his ass to put Khadgar into an arcane wheelchair. Copium addicts be telling you how amazing this is and it made them cry LOL 😂
They destroyed her 😂. Well, that's not the first time, but still.
"Now where did we leave that city, I'll have to get back to you." rofl how fitting. Losing a whole city like one might lose their car keys.
For the first 3 minutes in the expansion, everybody died xD. It's good that we get a couple of characters make it out alive
This misses me on two points. It underplays the moment of Anduin reconnecting with the LIght. They didn't need to turn him into a drama queen for that scene but a bit more glow effect would have better suited the occasion. Alleria got more bang for the buck when she zapped Xalatath's gizmo. The gentle smile he bestowed on Khadgar was a nice touch. Anduin has never been prideful and understatement between old friends speaks volumes. My bigger issue is the insult to Varian's kingship. His sword is not an instrument of evil. He did not kill without purpose. A leader must sometimes choose force when reason and sweet words do not secure the peace. Are we to forget how Varian secured escape for the remnants of his army at the cost of his own life? When Anduin asked "What do I do now?" Varian replied "What a king must do." Anduin is not Varian but he is a king. He can lead without a sword in his hand, but he will need a warrior as his righthand man.
THE FACE OF KHADGAR WAS PRICELESS WHEN HE LOOK AT ANDULN WHO JUST BROUGHT HIM BACK TO LIFE SAY THANK YOU
I would've liked if Khadgar came back later in the story, but this is at least good for Anduin's development
Finally Anduin made peace and uses the light again, hope we see him be brave again.
I just realised alleria wears pinkish red nailpolish
Thanks for spoiling he is still alive in the title and thumbnail. I appreciate it. /s
I knew he wasn’t dead. Khadgar had faith in all of us champions and I never gave up my faith in Khadgar
9:00 ahh... Warcraft 2 vibes, so good to remember.
Somebody help the man find his chowder!
Anduin restores faith and tenderness inside.
You got your manhood back Mr. Coach Anduin, you got your manhood back!
4:47
Trinity: what is he doing?
Morpheus: He's beginning to believe.
Next scene: Anduin dodges 96,900 bullets with his fingers. Light fade
@@Athelarius Either that or he is pulling a mass Rez like he did in the BFA cinematic.
Finally someone uses the Resurrection spell.
Thanks for spoiling straight in the title
I was roaring with excitement. Seeing the bird I was like WAIT- HE'S ALIVE
Then I was like "WAIT IS HE JUST GOING TO DIE AGAIN?"
And then ANDUIN and just-AAAAAAAAAAAH
I'm a sucker for this. Khadgar was my favorite character for a long time and Anduin became my new favorite overtime (watching him grow and fall and grow again). So this was real powerful for me.
Your reaction is literally the same as mine step by step they had us at the first half then with the finish it becomes one of the best cinematics to date
Xalatath got the dark heart clapped before the first raid opened...Iridikron is going to be pissed lol
I’m so glad Turalyon didn’t go to the Priory, I don’t think he would’ve ever wanted to leave.
Chadgar better have a grand death or death by old age because I'll be damned if he's slain by no name void anomaly.
Anduin theme, makes me believe!
Resurrection is an incredible feat in lore. We do it in gameplay all the time; but lore wise, it takes an incredible tie to the Light to perform. Very rare. Anduin had done it once before with Calia Menethil.
Can you please put the word spoiled in front of these cinematics? I got a notification on my computer which completely spoiled me as I worked through the campaign . It's a small change that would save many people. Very infuriating to see.
ok imagine this:
Aleria at the last moments of the expansion fighting Xal'atath, she is losing, bow broken, has a few seconds left, portal opens and Sylvanas appears. I would probably faint
I am so happy to see Khadgar again.
Thanks for the spoiler chief. Amazingly done.
I wonder if people know that Khadgar’s age was fast forwarded when he and Anduin Lothar killed evil Medivh, so he’s technically only middle aged
The chair is hilarious.
I HATE spoilers, but I had to know. Thank you.
finally i see someone res'd in a cinematic
Oh wow what a super shocking and not at all obvious piece of story writing. Thank you wow writing team for blessing us with this riveting piece of narrative in place of actual content to play.
Wait he turned himself into pure arcane energy to protect himself within all the void energy?
I definitely couldn't possibly imagine a world where he came back a little bit of void corruption....
Dude don't put spoilers in the title wtf.
Anduin finally remembered he is Paladin and not Death Knight so he got a Ressurection spell in spellbook..
Anduin played Death Knight for a couple of days and now he forgot rotations..
