  • Warning: Some massive spoilers in this video and a story that should be enjoyed in game. To see it, do the 3 major stories in the 3 zones of Kul Tiras. For those sticking around, this is the major ending for the Alliance story in 8.0.1. After uniting the houses of Kul Tiras, one question remains; What happened to Jaina Proudmoore? Some of the best storytelling I've seen in Warcraft... I hope you'll enjoy!

    I'm still leveling both my Horde and Alliance main, but I really had to watch this in advance. I like the way Genn talks to Katherine at the start of the quest. She needs someone old and experienced to talk some sense into her. Genn himself has lost a child and doesn't want Katherine to go through the same pain, not while there is still a chance to save Jaina.
    The Blighted Lands both look and sound like a fate worse than death. I've always had something of a soft spot for Jaina, even during the Purge of Dalaran which in the end was Garrosh's fault, but seeing all those past decisions torment her makes me feel for her more. She is easily the most human character in the entire story. When Katherine sees all the shit Jaina has been through and hugs her, I almost cried. It was like one of those really emotional, tear- jerking moments in an anime, something we haven't really seen in WoW.
    Then we get to the Siege of Boralus. Jaina uses her father's pendant to call back the missing fleet with TANDRED FREAKIN' PROUDMORE at the helm, who just a month ago was non- canon. And to top it all, we have Bolvar's daughter confirmed. This is a great ending to the Alliance story in Kul Tiras. Good job, Blizzard, and thank you, Nobbel, for this video!

    I am blood red Horde but I have always liked Jaina and grieved for her when Theramore was bombed. I rejoiced when she and Kalec got together and saddened when she left the Kirin Tor when we went joined together to battle against the Legion. In beta, I deliberate rolled an Alliance character (Dark Iron paladin - highly recommend!!) so I could see if I could reunite her mother and her. It does my heart good to see the ending of this tale and that she and her mother are indeed reconciled and Jaina has found her place.

    Katherine Proudmoore is a fantastic character who's arc throughout the story-line changes and develops so well. Jaina basically stays the same, but Katherine went from having lost everything and her entire family (Tandred lost with the fleet, Daelin dead, Jaina exiled, Derek dead) to realising her daughter had come home, and in embracing that she got Tandred back too. I really hope they keep Katherine around and she doesn't fade in history like Yrel.

  • @ConnorNotyerbidness
    @ConnorNotyerbidness 6 лет назад +2

    Btw to put into perspective how powerful the kul'tiran ships are: the real world version of those ships are called A Ship of the Line, examples people may remember are the Dauntless and the Endeavor from Pirates of the Caribbean, with 100-110 cannons spread across 3-4 decks for whats called a "First Rate Ship of the Line".
    Those ships one broadside was over 1000 pounds of force. A full broadside from a 1st rate ship of the line was enough to reduce almost any ship to literally splinters in seconds. They were pretty slow due to their massive size, but due to their sheer firepower they were the most powerful ships at that time.
    (They are called a "ship of the line" as theyd literally line them up in a blockade basically and have all of them and their support ships fire on the enemy all at once)
    The kul'tiran fleet is entirely made up of these kind of ships. And that is why Ashvane surrendered.

      What?? Genn attacked unprovoked? Did u not see the UNPROVOKED Siege of Gilneas? Sylvanas used the plague on Gilneans villagers and Southshore Villagers, she turned Southshore into a plagued waste, there was literal auchwitz death camps in hillsbrad that experimented on innocent villagers to improve the plague.
      Sylvanas sacked gilneas and killed Genn's son...so wth are u talking about...Genn had every right and reason to stop Sylvanas from getting her selfish desire of immortality (especially when it was coming at the cost of a potential ally agaisnt the legion, the valkyr).
      Also no not a few ppl...every leader of the horde was complicit in the bombing of theramore and the burning of the world tree. They stood aside and did nothing. Thrall the very man who she let her father die for abandoned her at Theramore when she asked for his help.
      So yea...she didnt act like a cunt, she acted like a normal HUMAN who wanted vengeance after being fucked over so many times by HYPOCRITES.

    You guys realising Blizzard has been foreshadowing the Scourge a lot in BFA?
    -Various death themes, Bwonsamdi and the Drustvar
    -Introduction of Bolvar's daughter, Taelia Fordragon
    -King Rastakhan quoting Ner'zhul, "I have taken care of everything."
    -Arthas appearing in Jaina's Nightmares
    -Warcraft 3 Camera Angles in the Alliance Battle for Lordaeron cinematics
    -Anduin's resemblence to Arthas (Anduin opening the Lordaeron throne room doors)
    -Sylvanas recruiting the San'layn into the Horde.
    -Saurfang's son: Dranosh appearing in the "Old Soldier" cinematic.
    Its all connected man.

    Dude. I recently finished this storyline. The cinematic after Siege of Boralus gives me goosebumps every time I see it. This is some of the best storytelling I've seen in a game. I'm looking forward to playing Horde side and what story unravels there.

  • @permeus2nd
    @permeus2nd 6 лет назад +5

    28:59 so the guy behind her, me and the people on the discord I frequent spent quite a bit of time trying to work out who it is and as we only have a shoulder pad to go on it’s hard work, but it looks like it may be Bolivar or someone wearing the same armour set that he had at the wrathgate, he is the only big name that we could find that had that set so odds are it’s him now the interesting part is the cinematic team seam to have gone out of their way to hide this one person and it lines up with another idea this discord has that a lot of the stuff happening in BFA is the third Lichking (aka Bolivar or what’s left of his mind inside the LK) moving pieces into place so that when he finally makes his move we will be too weak to fight back, and with almost all the leaders been mentally unstable at the start of BFA it would be easy to poke some of them in the direction he wants them to go, a vision of their dead farther here condemning them for one and encouraging the young prince for the other, dropping a seed of an idea that the alliance will attack you sooner or later for syl, nothing too big as to be noticed as it’s not quite time, all the pieces are still moving and he only wants the fight to start when he knows he will win, it’s just a theory bit it would be fun if it’s true we know the LK is planning something, if you played the DK campaign in legion as a frost you see a echo of the second LK showing up from time to time holding a big sign saying this is a warning sign but at that point it’s probably too late for the Ebon blade as all the DKs are like that horrible thing the LK just “”asked”” us to do? Doesn’t It sound like a great idea?
    Also while I don’t think this quest is in canon when you do the postmasters quest in legion you return to the top of icecrown to do a job and the thrown is sitting empty with no sign of Bolivar, when I saw this I was like wait is this blizz hinting that the Lichking is on the move? I mean based on how long Arthas was on ice before Wrath started Bolivar was due to be up and about at the start of legion (it looks like it takes about five years to fully become the new LK) or is it just they didn’t think to add him? A very unblizzard thing to do, it’s not like he is a Dwarf.

    • @permeus2nd
      @permeus2nd 6 лет назад

      @deenman23 but to jaina she did fail to save bolvar, to her if she had somehow talked Arthas out of the culling or maybe tryed harder at icecrown she could have saved him and all the others or if she had been there when we took out the LK she could have taken the crown or destroyed it, if she had just tryed harder.
      Now we know she did all she could back then because our minds are fine but jainas is so broken it looks like a jigsaw puzzle.

    • @madcap830
      @madcap830 6 лет назад

      Taking or destroying the crown would've been a VERY bad idea. It's in the cinematic for Wrath, "There must always be a Lich King." Otherwise the scourge would be uncontrollable/unstoppable.

    Just wanna say, you're the best WoW lore channel out there.
    Edit: aah, now that it's done and I heard the story from You, it now truly feels complete. Kul Tiras has become my very favourite place, and everything is just... Tidesages, the Drust, the Blighted Lands, this specific side of Druidism! Honestly, when the Zandalari Loa druidism (it's what I heard please don't kill me) was revealed, my jaw dropped like pretty much every elses', they are so cool. But this, the dichotomy of Life and Death present within Nature, I have to say that Kul'Tiran, Drust-inspired, and I can't believe I'm about to say this, human druidism is my favourite specifications within a class of them all.
    And Jaina, sweet, poor, troubled Jaina, the Daugther of the Sea, and now Lord Admiral of Kul'Tiras... I am so proud of her, I really can't express it otherwise, and watching it all at once was a real punch right in the gut... making the triumpht all the greatest. It's the fifth time or so I see her torture in Thos, and it still made me cry down in grief. It's the third time I see the hopeful beacon, the Pride of Kul'Tiras, shine and call the fleet back home, and I still feel such overwhelming satisfaction at the family reunion (the detail about her brother makes it all the better now, I had no bloody idea who that guy was)
    All I can really ask for, is for the original, or at least a happy/prideful, version of the shanty to come out. That song will go down as one of the best Blizzard has ever laid claim to, but it'd just be all the more beautiful to have a version we could sing to in pride.
    Infinity out of ten from me, I haven't felt such a strong connection to a story in a while. Nobbel, if you read, then know I for one would be ever so glad to see the videos on every zone inbetween the intro to Kul'Tiras and this fantastic ending.

    My theory is that the "Blighted Lands" is in fact the Emerald dream of Kul'tiras. You see since the local druids are closer to the death side of things as Nobbel put it, it would stand to reason that the reflection of the land of Kul'tiras would take on a more darker reflection as to reflect the local caretaker's powers
