GET. FUCKING. PAID. Love your content fam
ngl, never really cared about GH. Me, a zug zug, always went to the Boring Tundra and then to Dragonblight.
shameless
i thought high elves had been in the game for a while?
I remember doing the quest chain that lead up to defeating the Shade of Arugal with my friends, and when we can't fight him, a passing max level player helped us defeat him. I still remember him saying, 'Well, have you fought the bear guy?' then dragged us across the zone to do the quest chain to kill him. Then there's the quest where you throw stones from above. That's also fun.
I wish I could be that max level guy with last tier of normal gears set. That's what make me loved playing WoW in my freetime while waiting for a que. Too bad last time I'd met my friends like this is just before covid become a pandemic. I never saw them online again.
@@moch.farisdzulfiqar6123 my condolences
Worth mentioning that in the Horde base and during the Krenna/Gorgonna questline, we also meet Nazgrim who at the time was a simple sergeant and from there becomes one of the best and most beloved Horde character in the game as we know
In my core memories of WoW riding into Grizzly Hills for the first time and hearing that music hit along with the scenery is peak WoW for me.
It's definitely up there for me.
And here we are all of these years later, still trying to chase that dragon

It will always blow my mind that Grizzly Hills is one of the most beloved zones in the game, can be accurately described as "Pretty Fantasy Forest" and they've just... chosen not to do that again. Ever. Grizzly Hills is comfy and awesome BECAUSE it doesn't have Satan's massive butthole at the center of it.
Df has a zone similar to grizzly hills
Dragonflight is doing grizzly hills 2.0 lol
They love to do that Emerald Dream looking ass zone tho, They do that one EVER WHERE. There are like 20 of those druid forest zones in the game.
@@ChaosDesigned are you saying you don’t want the 15th Ashenvale in game?
@@TheWikkdOne Not even close!!!! Wotlk had more to it than just a nice music! We can hope BUT nah... wont happen! Unless they make another expansion about old world and revamp it!
I played this game for 15+ years.
I played through all of Wotlk.
Grizzly Hills is also my favorite zone.
I NEVER KNEW ABOUT THE LOG RIDE WTF WHAT IS THAT WHERE IS IT COMING FROM WHY DID I NEVER HEARD OF IT HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE ?!
YES WTF WHY HAVE I NOT KNOWN ABOUT THIS, iv been doing so much pvp in grizzly hills and always did every quest on around 5 characters. CRAZY
@@Kapizh maybe if you weren't blinded by the
BLOOD OF YOUR SWORN ENEMIES IN YOUR EYES FROM YOUR CONSTANT MURDERING
You would've seen it....just saying
@@kiriuxeosa8716 pff
I remember the days of coming back from school to boot up WoW on my dad's PC, and have a blast flying around Grizzly Hills for 3 hours straight. I was too young to do much of anything so I was just screwing around taking in the atmosphere as much as I could. It's just such a gorgeous zone, man. The music, the ambiance... my God
We are getting old :(
@@hehemhem it's true, and tomorrow will come and go faster than yesterday went. But if we can find our own Grizzly Hills, then maybe at least then we can pass our short time happily
wow same i remember i would just play my step dads account and not really understand how to play the game but just loved exploring the world
You stole this comment from the soundtrack of the zone video. How lame lol
@@kyj1147 Uhh what? No I didn't. I don't recall having made a comment like this before, and I'm quite positive that I also haven't seen a comment like this. Besides, there were millions of WoW players back in those days, so I can't be the only one with this kind of experience
I literally just made a Worgen Druid this week and Grizzly Hills was first place I went after the starting zone. It’s just so cozy and gorgeous.
It's the atmosphere... the music, the sound of the winds howling, the scenery. It's just all so relaxing. Grizzly Hills just hits different, even to this day
#JusticeForUrsoc
...He's seriously done so dirty I didn't realize how often the dude just dies.
Always loved those green, peaceful areas in mmos
Nagrand is also one of my favorite zones
Grizzly and Nagrand are OP fr💎
It was a deceptively wholesome area back when I played the game. I liked visiting those Iron Dwarf ruins in that small city built into the ground, I always thought more dwarven cities should be built like that. I also liked it when I went through Drakuru's quest chain, and when I bumped into Harrison Jones in those ruins near the coast. Other than that, the area was pretty plain.
I was so happy to see another Platinum video. You, sir, are the true lore master.
I don't even play Wow, but this is like listening to a storyteller reading fairytales, some of them very strange, but in general, very good ones.
It's the nykelharpa that takes me back. The zone was pretty cool though and I would consider it core warcraft. Undead, werewolves, trolls doing troll stuff, dwarves doing dwarf stuff, druid stuff with furbolg.... awesome zone.
Honestly, I wish I started reading the quests descriptions earlier in my journey in wow. I always focused on the grand epic scale story told by raids, cinematics, and trailers. But often overlooked the smaller scale stories that are often just as good if not better. Like that zone where you travel in a caravan with a dwarf a worgen woman and another dude I forgot, them wanting to become paladins or something like that. And there's this very cute and funny storyline about how the dwarf REALLY wanted to sit in the front seat with the girl, but he couldn't cuz they always kept getting new passangers (Including the player) who always sat in the front seat. Like holy shit that was so cool. Even if the quests themselves were boring as hell, cuz Blizz unfortunately did not understand that NO JUST ADDING LEVEL SCALING IS NOT ENOUGH TO FIX THE FESTIVAL OF BOREDOM THAT IS LEVELING IN WORLD OF WARCRAFT!
Same here.
Fiona's caravan, a favorite of mine too :D
I am so happy when platinum uploads, man you are genuinely one of the funniest RUclipsrs out there and just so unique, thanks for your work.
Thank God I need new content. Honestly whenever I'm having a rough day I put on totems of the grizzlemaw and it just makes me feel so much better
There's NOTHING better than Grizzly Hills, this place is so nostalgic for me it almost hurts. Thank you Platinum for this video
Nyckelharpa, that wicked instrument that sounds like a bagpipe and violin made love with one another, is among the reasons why this zone is so awesome. The alpine athmosphere and werewolf hicks always a good combi
OMG I never knew the log ride even existed and I played Wrath back in the day.
That music, oh that music. It makes me nostalgic for a time I've never known. It stirs something in my soul
OG Westfall is my favorite zone... but Grizzly Hills is the up there. Top 5 for sure. With Elwyn Forest, Tirisfal Glades, and TBC Nagrand
Grizzly Hills is peak wow and maybe one of the best solo experiences.
Heart of the journey to the Lich King and a winter locale you maybe didn't expect in the cold.
Best part of best expansion of all time.
Ive played wow for 20 years and ive never been to grizzlly hills once 💀💀💀 and tbh it doesnt look thaaat nice. For me the best zone in wow is the nightelves starting zones theyre just soo magical and soo HUGEEE i absolutely love it
Dude I love yogg's laugh,I think he is the coolest old god.
I remember doing the Arugal quest chain and teaming up with a Horde player (I was Alliance) and we took turns helping each other get the kill.
I’d say out of northrend it’s grizzly hills or scholazar basin but for all of WoW? No way. Nagrand, dun morogh, thousand needles, uldum and vashjir are definitely ahead of it.
Vash’jir definitely slept on
I always loved Drakuru's questline. The first time I leveled a character in Wrath, I skipped the hills and went straight to Zul'Drak because I had hit both the Tundra and the Fjord and didn't need the levels by then.
On my second character, however, I started leveling in the Fjord, so I wound up being funneled right into the Grizzly Hills.
When my second character ran into him in Zul'Drak after doing all his stuff in the hills and he's all "Oh you got my gift! It's so good to see you again! Here, let me have a look at you, we're going to do great things together!" that was an amazing moment.
It felt real to me, not only because it was a series of quests that spanned into another zone and felt like part of a connected world, but also because THAT'S the level of recognition I loved to get in wow. None of the 'Oh it's the legendary champion of Azeroth!' but just a more down-to-earth 'Hey it's YOU! That guy who did me a solid a while back! It really is good to see you again!'
I always enjoyed NPCs recognizing my character, not as a legendary hero, but just as someone who helped them out in the past.
The best part about the amber seeds quest is when you finish retrieving them from the outhouse and turn the quest in you learn you’re not the first to eat them. The npc when you complete the quest turns to another and goes “you know what to do” and the other says “back in the bucket” and brings the seeds back to the same bucket you found them in. Your alts all eat the same seeds your mains pooped out…
If this was the last time before wow ends and the servers close forever I would take all my characters,dress them up with cosy clothes and lead them to grizzly hills where they will rest for eternity :)
"traderous" lol
Good o' Plat misspellings are like little hidden gems in his videos. Love it
Lore time! I can’t wait to play though this zone in Wrath Classic.
Amazing vid as always. And big congrats on getting raid to sponsor you!
"Wow.. This bear f*ckin sucks." i LOST it lol
Still remembering the magnificent moment as I entered this zone the first time, the music and ambience....indescribable.
wotlk was PEAK WOW, never been the same after that... The music alone, was pure genius!
Totems of the Grizzlemaw has been in my wake-up-alarm playlist for like 6 or 7 years. Consistently in my Spotify yearly top songs, if not #1. Has brought tears to my eyes many times. Brings me back to some of the best times in my life with my brother. Many thanks to Russell Brower for such a beautiful song
Well I enjoy the grizzly hills, since there are plenty of quest chains: the Ursoc and emerald nightmare, the Wolf cult, the Iron dwarfes, which will continue in Storm Peaks, and, of course, the Drakuru quest chain with Scourge invading Zuldrak and Draktharon keep - one of my favourite LK dungeons.
And, Platinum, in this area we firstly encounter Nazgrim, who will play a big role
Love this so much thank you again.
Great stuff! Love seeing my PTR guild Big Loi's Bull Boi's slaying some trolls!
I loved this video. I hope you will consider converting this into a series explaining other zones of the game.
I've been waiting for the next video. Thanks for delivering bro I look forward to your stuff.
My favorite zone ever. Just loved chilling there.
I remember so much about this zone.. the ambience, music, quests, landscapes, lvling a dk and hitting lvl 80 for the first time there and also the ability to ride a log down the water stream.. good times!)
Dude you’re so awesome. Making it my mission to watch every video. Love them
nice man, love the Lore of the zones
i always skipped grizzly hills als much as i could. sholazar basin is where the fun is at.
Oh man this video touched my soul ty
I see this video after a year and it is still just as funny. Platinum’s videos are the most rewatchable videos on the internet since two girls one cup
When i first entered Grizzly Hills and heard that specific music.. Gosh the chills. Also pretty fun quests, ( one where u literally s**t to test a seed xd), AMAZING visuals and so many more. Grizzly Hills is definitely one of Wow's gems
Grizzly Hills ambient music is about the only one I have on my chill play list. Just so relaxing and smooth
I also enjoyed visiting Sholazar Basin so much!
Your videos are always amazing Plat. Keep up the great work ❤️
once again, the humor is on point
Love your videos, man! Keep up the good work! 😀
I’m glad I’m not the only one that absolutely loves this zone
I have been informed by this video that 90% of players not only like it but like it over all others. Thus I must stop liking it now because that’s how me brain “works”
These Lore Safari Videos are great! Keep it going!
Damn, I always love to see your vids, man
Love these videos. Great job.
The Zone of Legends. The Grizzly Hills is the epitome of all that is good and relaxing when playing Wrath of the Lich King.
Thank you Platinum Wow for this piece of lore. Cheers !

The jailer: all according to plan
Teldrassil is my number 1 with ashenvale, grizzly hill is third. i just love the calm area's and the huge trees. the music ... i can listen to those sound tracks all day long
Oregon or I mean Grizzly Hills is so lovely, yesterday you could have gotten a free t-shirt there!!
I enjoy ur videos alot. Might go through them all and have some fun listening to them
ty for always making funny and interesting videos!
Just those first few notes is enough to put a smile on my face alone
Your videos are like... Super entertaining.
The way the Grizzly Hills music makes me feel is how I want to feel in every moment of my life.
The music from the Grizzly Hills is the music I remember first. It was fantastic.
YUSH! a new Plat video!
I love this zone, great place to walk around with my Mage
When I first did this area all the way it was cata and I was a worgen made it a little awkward when they asked if I was bitten
The nostalgia.. love that zone
Love me some good Grizzly Hills and Drakkari trolls. ♥
Music. The music draws you back every time.
Grizzly hill's music never fails at giving me instant goooosebumps!
Nice one Platty
I always wondered why I saw Ursoc everywhere I just thought he got around lol also, I absolutely love your cinematography
I swear to God this is the best video I ve seen regarding zones ! ♥️
There's nothing better thank having a platinum wow video ready for my breakfast, even if I'm repeating it :D
For me it's been the ambience and music that keeps pulling me back to that zone
I love your content. Keep it up.
Can't believe I'm just now learning about the log ride.
Every video of yours deserves 1,000,000 views dude. Your content is always 10/10.
Your videos are so great! I wish you made vids more frequently
This and Howling Fjord were my two favorite zones in the entire game. I could LIVE in Grizzly hills IRL. I want to.
Come to Sweden or Norway and you're gonna be living it! Which the zone and lore is based of.
Still go to this zone on my main from time to time just to relax. Also have several old alts parked there forever..
The music in Grizzly Hills always reminded me of Braveheart.
I am acturally thankful for the leveling revamp we got way back.. its so much more interesting to lvl an alt in the zone of choice and somewhat relive those quests~
You are right. Every quest you listed are the only ones i do ni skip all of the onequa quests for the iron dwarves ect. Lol
Loved it! You honestly gave me some LOL moments at a time there is little to LOL about, so thank you for that. Loved the zone and it brought back so many memories! As a side note, you sound so much like Josh Gates (Destination Unknown) that I got thrown for a loop there. **You're NOT Josh Gates, are you?
the lich king keyboard turning had me rolling
The music from the Grizzly Hills is still the best. Along with Budd being one of the best characters.
Ursoc is also the spirit that grants druids their bear form. He wasn't written up back in 2004, and thus was only known as "Great Bear spirit". Very creative Blizzard.
mechagon is my favorite. and i also like ardenweald, it's very relaxing.
New platinum wow just dropped poggers
love the music of the zone
100% Grizzly Hills is the best zone. Beautiful music and landscapes. You feel home.
