actually that sounds dumb, they weren't destroyed so that we could have a new expansion (even if the writers hadn't come up with them it would be simple to just say they were all dead.)
Why is it so hard to understand that Alexstraza, THE ASPECT OF LIFE, refused to kill her brood brothers and sisters (you are saying that you would have NO hesitation or remorse in killing your brothers and/or sisters if they did something against the law?)... HELLO!? Red dragons are most loath to kill living beings. Alexstraza said during Garrosh's trial that she only considers sentencing to death when someone irreparably threatens the balance and/or survival of the world (such as with Malygos and Deathwings).
@@helgastt You are missing the point. I´m sure Alexstraza had her reasons as the Aspect of Life and all that rhetoric. But the whole "this super powerful being has always existed, it´s just it was conveniently hidden away until now and was never ever mentioned before" plot as an excuse is honestly getting tiresome.
after seeing Kalecgos' and this cinematic I can throw a punn here: Alexstrasza: we have something Raszageth does not! Kalec: Family? Alexstrasza: HANDS!
You'd think a dragon who's lived that long would know how to adjust their aim when they breath flame... They would know more then anyone how long it takes for their breath to make contact and would aim accordingly.
Or actually use more than 10% of her supposed bite force to break a wing. But nah, in classic filler fight fashion, nothing actually does anything until someone eventually pulls out some flashy superpower to slightly hurt someone more. Not enough to leave visible wounds, though. Of course.
But Razageth is a lightning dragon so technically she has an electromagnetic field around her, similar to the earth, which repels solar / fire winds. The beam would have contacted her but the electromagnet field caused the beam to veer slightly off 🤯🤯
The whole siblings vs siblings is getting pretty old. Sargeras turning on The Pantheon, Neltharion turning on the Aspects, Zovaal turning on The Eternal Ones. Alex referred to the Primal Incarnates as Clutchmates so even they are related somehow
Nothing wrong with that, their relationship is kinda what makes the conflict interesting. The dragons corrupted by the titans vs the dragons who naturally evolved using the elements.
Holy hell i LOVED the wrathion/alex dialogue where protecting the clutch is more important then taking the citadel back. That was just fantastic stuff to watch
@@Death089100 She's the dragon of life. Her most important purpose is to take care of life. It's not in her habits to kill living creatures. Besides, it would be really strange if she choose to kill Raszageth after imprisoning her for years to spare her. If she had the will to kill Raszageth, she would have killed Raszageth long ago. And fighting an enemy in the air isn't the same than fighting an enemy on the ground.
There was a lot of critisism about alexstrazas new design, it was changed for obvious reasons regarding reasent events. But i personally think it looks badass. Not to mention shes still hot.
It could be that Raszageth and her allies see humans as tools to be tossed aside but I wonder if they are aware that gnomes humans and dwarves are titan creations and if they don't whether they would still let them be their servants.
Crazy how wrathion just put aside his hatred for the red dragonflight and actively saved alexstrasza. Did he forget in cata he killed the reds who came after him ?
He realizes he needs them to help save the obsidian citadel. That's why he pressures alex so much after the fight. That's why it's so hurtful for her to say she expected him to care more about helpless eggs than he seems to, cause she remembers it was her flight that experimented on him while he was a helpless egg. Wrathion is not afraid to grovel to secure the little bit of beautiful history of his flight thats left.
"I would have expected you to care more for the protection of helpless eggs, Wrathion" OHHHHH! NO SHE FAQING DID NOT JUST. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DAMN! He might be a dragon but he felt that burn.
So, Raszageth had the opportunity to kill her most hated ennemy and one of the few that could really kill her and foiled her plans but suddenly decide that a "whelpling" is too much for her to handle and that she suddenly want Alexstrasza to suffer before killing her. In good old villain fashion. Also, Alexstrasza abandoned the Primal Incarnates in their prisons, never visiting, she left them alone in darkness for twenty thoussands years to the point that even most dragons didn't know about their existance and she is surprised that she "failed to restore peace between them". But she didn't even tried! 6:40 why would the eggs be considered corrupted? or even in danger? It's not fel energy, it's not demonic or from the void, it's just elemental energy like the very ones that make the world, like the very ones that the dragon flights wields despite embracing the Titan gifts. 11:03 I thought it was Malygos that provoked the slumber of the Drachtyrs?
Don't try to talk sense to WoW players my dude, you're not gonna get anything but "UM, ACKSHEWALLY" and dismissals of how there's never been a plot hole or nonsensical moment.
It's very clear that they treat anything and anyone that don't think like the titan dragonflight is a threat and corruption. As representatives of order, they are incappable of accepting anything but their point of view. Anything else must be destroyed/sealed or converted to their ideology.
Consider 2 things. 1) The elemental lords originally served the old gods. As such, these primalist protodrakes, in serving as a sort of aspect of the elemental lords, in turn were servants of the old gods. 2) Bobby's bigger yacht needs more plot retcons for his next bonus.
@@ebilgaming The elementals lords didn't served the Old Gods originally, they were subdued by them. Which make ma wonder how being a shaman or a druid doesn't expose yourself to the Old Gods? 2)... I have nothing to say about that XD
Bof, a forgoten evil from distant past that no one ever heard of that suddenly resurface now because for some reasons, some mortals knew about their existance on that forgotten and hidden isle and decided that it would be a good idea to release them for... unknown reasons. And of course, it's a classic villain "that know nothing but rage and that time cannot appease".
It does paint an interesting picture of Neltharion. Even before the corruption he never did a thing without strings attached. While his actions looked heroic from afar they were anything but. Everything was about building his image and gaining leverage.
I don't think that they are. As I think long ago the Dragons the True way of the Dragons was supposed to be un touched by the Elements and the Titans. But the Elements came first and gave Dragons power to spread there way to Fight other Elements for Domination. Then the Titans came did there own with the Aspects. In the end this is just a war of sides in the Cosmological map. The Elements Vs the Titans and the Old God's picking there own sides as the Elements are more aligned to Chaos then say the Titans with Order.
I wonder how they knew about, let alone how to destroy the titan artifact. This all sounds like a plot to enslave Neltharion by the old gods. Isn't it curious that Raszageth let's Wrathion run around unharmed? I bet she is under the influence of the old gods and they want Wrathion for his potential being the only Black Dragon left in existence (and buds with Anduin)
Nah e cannpt be redeemed after having almost killed all dragonflight and destroyed the world. But that can give more flesh to the character than just "yah i became a bad guy"
Why does no one knew about the Dragon Isles but the Baddies are supported by Tauren, Trolls and so on? Blizzard Stories are always dumb and make no sense 🤣 Are these btw. ALL Cinematics of the leveling from 60 to 70? I mean I do not expect 10 hours of Cinematics like in FF14 but 12 minutes is kinda low. They even cut Patch 9.3 to have more time for 10.0 🙄🤔
Fascinating how people keep coming just to spill their contempt. What's funny is also that they often criticise without the good reasons. The Dragon Isles are known from players since a decade or more.
Some obviously knew. Taurens and trolls were there before the sundering, even if the information was mostly lost through millennia, it's obvious few would remember it and be part of it. Plus, considering the protos are about elements, it's not surprising that some shamans learn about them. Really, there is no need to look very far to understand the good reasons. Blizzard's made many mistakes but not everything is bad.
So it feels like Raza thinks she was betrayed and maybe rightfully so Ala accepted the titans gift and Raza wanted to continue drawing her power from the ones that created them. It feels like the primals didn’t like this maybe and so Ala began a campaign of forcing the titan order on everyone so the planet wouldn’t be chaotic in her eyes based with the new power and knowledge she obtained. But possibly not all the dragons felt that way and some liked the world the way it was. You just had two opposing viewpoints with one side feeling persecuted for existing and it didn’t help that the same side got locked away, only fueled them even more. Really if you think about it the titans did in their own way corrupt them because the primals were there first it was their home and the titans sought to bring order to them when they didn’t want it.
Say what you will about Raszageth but I think she was a pretty good villain despite the short amount of time we saw her. Remember that unlike expansions like Legion and Shadowlands this whole expansion isn't centered around a single goal of destroying the Incarnates. It's about the Dragons rediscovering their homelands and the dangers brought with it whether it's the Djaradin, Incarnates or the Sundered Flame rebels. The Incarnates may have the spotlight right now but Raszageth had a role and she filled it. Through Raszageth, we found out about the Incarnates and a decent amount of Dragon history was uncovered with a civil war and all. I honestly loved Raszageth because she told us the story and honestly had some good points. Raszageth's role was basically to introduce us to the story while also being a threat, she's only the first threat we face. Raszageth was the youngest and probably weakest of the Incarnates and depending on how good Blizzard's writing is this expansion the others will not be as easy to subdue since they learned from Raszageth's mistake of trying to release them too quickly. However, Blizzard really underestimates how much people read their lore and since I doubt many of you know, Proto-dragons didn't just exist since the beginning of Azeroth. During the war against the Black Empire, the Titan Keepers fought against the Elemental Lords and pushed them into the Elemental Planes. The elementals that remained slowly turned into the Proto-drakes and with Titan intervention after the death of Galakrond, they became the Dragons we know today. This explains why the Proto-drakes we come across in Dragonflight look like they resemble elementals.
@@edwardness7497 Neltharion should at least be able to take a lot of them down, because he's still an Aspect after all, while they are just Elemental Dragons, not blessed by the Titans themselves
@@kennymccormick2370 I'm sure they'll give an explanation as to why he needed old god powers to do it and that he wasn't strong enough on his own... right... right??
Estinien Wyrmblood: *watching all this from the side* Well, now this seems familiar doesn't it, Nidhogg? If there ever is a crossover/collaboration, now's the time.
@@H-3X35 Not really. At least before retcon Azeroth is known as a Titan and it is the same as Argus is. They are a Titans which is sleeping not being shaped or etc.
They still can tell good stories, that's what makes me so mad about blizzard as a whole. Everything else about the game and blizzard itself is just not it anymore.
Not sure the meaning behind it. Every other aspect of the games they make is really good, the artwork, the animation, the music, even the voice acting. And often the gameplay can be held up when done right. The issue with shadowlands was the story, how they wanted to subvert things, which is never a good thing in long running stories, it pisses off long time fans and muddles everything for new ones trying to get into it.
I suspect that a significant part of the quality of the writing for WoW is dependent on how much content has to be cut during an expansion. Rather than designing the game to tell a story, WoW instead focuses on the gameplay stuff (raids, dungeons, etc) and uses the story as a means of moving players into the endgame content. Even the best writers would struggle with trying to tell a good story if they had to deal with not knowing how much of it would be cut because the dev team managed their time poorly. I also suspect that's why so much of WoW's story ends up in books. The writers have far more control over the book than they do over the game. I'm not saying that the writing team are blameless for all the story issues, but I do think their job is made more difficult by the poor time management of the dev team.
This title clickbait and frankly I am disappointed that you are doing that. It make me not trust you and then not watch what you produce either. I am just one person who took a few seconds to write this, and even if you delete this comment, all the people who watch this will think the same thing. It's not like they don't know what death means.
It was a fight to the death however. The fact nobody died does not deny the fact it WAS a “fight to the death”, with the intention of one entity trying to kill the other.
@@Athelarius "deadly fight" or something is ok but "fight to the death" implies you arrive there. i think. "road to miami" means road goes to miami, it doesn't stop in Ohio and leave you hanging.
@@Athelarius You're incorrect. If was a fight to death, someone has to die, it's that simple. I am not going watch your videos anymore after reading you trying to justify your clickbait bullshit in that reply.
Sibling vs Sibling, again. Another "Powerful Entity" breaks out of prison. We've literally fought Old Gods, which are far more powerful than the Primal Dragons- so I guess we're taking a step back on the wrung of the enemy danger level ladder and still struggling. Glad I quit, gonna love the end of the expansion when the Old Gods rise up once more and we have to help the Primalists fight them or find out they're all corrupted by one.
Has anyone else noticed Deathwing's actions were not of a villain during the time travel story? No proof he tends to use them as weapons against his own and only turns to the side of old gods once his creations' lives were in danger as well seal them away even when they would have been still loyal to him and able to be controlled by the old gods. Nothing Deathwing did make sense if he was evil at the time he did it if anything it proves he might have been a good guy up to the point of old gods power being used.
Ehhhh. You see a cutscene in one of the quests that revealed that Netharion had actually enslaved the Dracthyr using a titan relic. The attack that caused him to turn to the old gods accidentally destroyed the relic, releasing the Dracthyr from his control. He put them in stasis because now the Dracthyr were free and were not guaranteed to not question his orders. He was 100% using them as weapons because he was using a titan relic to ensure the Dracthyr could never disobey him.
Agreed that the tiny arms look off but keep in mind that the proto dragons first debuted in wrath of the litch king as less wise under evolved dragons. These cunning proto dragons are something new/forgotten we are seeing in dragonflight
Really makes me go "So the aspects never did anything useful?". Okay, sure they stop Galakrond but that was before getting the upgrade. They get the upgrade and barely manage to beat the unpowered flights, can't beat the demons,, Don't stop the orc invasion, can't stop Kelthuzad from killing like 1/5th of the world. They never do anything that matters once they get empowered.
I'm a big lore fan, SL crushed all my hope for a decent lore and DF is doing no better. Having said all that, DF by far has the best zones even for antiquated wow engine, it all looks beautiful. I have long forgotten the story which I enjoyed all the way to the end of legion. I now play DF purely for the content it provides and so far, I'm very happy. There is still that lingering hope for the lore to get better.

Really if you think about it the titans did in their own way corrupt them because the primals were there first it was their home and the titans sought to bring order to them when they didn’t want it.

Ah, yes, that's probably the moment when Raszageth yelled "NO MORE FURRIES !!!"
Say what you will about Raszageth but I think she was a pretty good villain despite the short amount of time we saw her. Remember that unlike expansions like Legion and Shadowlands this whole expansion isn't centered around a single goal of destroying the Incarnates. It's about the Dragons rediscovering their homelands and the dangers brought with it whether it's the Djaradin, Incarnates or the Sundered Flame rebels. The Incarnates may have the spotlight right now but Raszageth had a role and she filled it. Through Raszageth, we found out about the Incarnates and a decent amount of Dragon history was uncovered with a civil war and all. I honestly loved Raszageth because she told us the story and honestly had some good points. Raszageth's role was basically to introduce us to the story while also being a threat, she's only the first threat we face. Raszageth was the youngest and probably weakest of the Incarnates and depending on how good Blizzard's writing is this expansion the others will not be as easy to subdue since they learned from Raszageth's mistake of trying to release them too quickly.
However, Blizzard really underestimates how much people read their lore and since I doubt many of you know, Proto-dragons didn't just exist since the beginning of Azeroth. During the war against the Black Empire, the Titan Keepers fought against the Elemental Lords and pushed them into the Elemental Planes. The elementals that remained slowly turned into the Proto-drakes and with Titan intervention after the death of Galakrond, they became the Dragons we know today. This explains why the Proto-drakes we come across in Dragonflight look like they resemble elementals.
I'm getting some House of the Dragon vibes from this fight and I'm impressed thank you very much for giving us this cutscene
Could you imagine House Targaryen at the Dragon Isles? They would either have a heart attack or have a massive orgasm. 😂
@@AnnaJo2000 both.
@@andrewrenshaw2741 I agree both
@@AnnaJo2000 Definitely both
@@AnnaJo2000 as for Vhagar, she would find the isles to be a place to rest without the Targeyens bothering her
It's funny how blizz has all female protagonists and antagonists now, male characters are all secondary and being put in the background
You titled the chapter at 7:43 "Neltharion becomes Arthas"... Surely you meant Deathwing? Or is this an even greater plot twist than we knew?
It's a joke
Deathwing or Galakrond could have easily destroyed these 4 Elemental Dragons
Deathwing did, but because he had help, which made him Deathwing... Neltharion could not tho...
@@edwardness7497 Neltharion should at least be able to take a lot of them down, because he's still an Aspect after all, while they are just Elemental Dragons, not blessed by the Titans themselves
The amount of elemental power they absorbed made them pretty much on par with an aspect
@@kennymccormick2370 Yes Neltharion should be the strongest dragon, he is the aspect of Earth, but Blizzard nerfed him down to serve plot.
@@kennymccormick2370 I'm sure they'll give an explanation as to why he needed old god powers to do it and that he wasn't strong enough on his own... right... right??
It's the story of Dragondude, half dragon and half dude :D :D

She never told you … WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR FATHER
Estinien Wyrmblood: *watching all this from the side* Well, now this seems familiar doesn't it, Nidhogg?
If there ever is a crossover/collaboration, now's the time.
Why is alexstraza always getting her ass kicked?
alextrasda telling him "i was hoping you understand what a defensless egg could feel" xD that hurts in the lore and the irony jajaja
The outro Invincible version sounds much deeper than the one posted in description, are you sure they are the same?
Red queen dropping shots like Balboa
Umm Raszageth I'm not sure if you notice it or not but the planet you talking about is also a Titan and you living in it.
No, no, they already retcon that (hard to keep track, I know).
Supposedly Azeroth is now a mysterious entity and center of the cosmos.
@@donimmortal7692 Bro.... They just did mention that in Legion and they retcon it again????
Azeroth is a world soul that can be shaped into a titan and theoretically a being to do with each force
@@H-3X35 Not really. At least before retcon Azeroth is known as a Titan and it is the same as Argus is. They are a Titans which is sleeping not being shaped or etc.
@@th3ra83 yeah, before retcon. It was retconned.
I just can't take them serious with those tiny t-rex arms.
XD. Apparently Prison is home to a lot of talented people I guess XD
They still can tell good stories, that's what makes me so mad about blizzard as a whole. Everything else about the game and blizzard itself is just not it anymore.
Not sure the meaning behind it. Every other aspect of the games they make is really good, the artwork, the animation, the music, even the voice acting. And often the gameplay can be held up when done right.
The issue with shadowlands was the story, how they wanted to subvert things, which is never a good thing in long running stories, it pisses off long time fans and muddles everything for new ones trying to get into it.
I suspect that a significant part of the quality of the writing for WoW is dependent on how much content has to be cut during an expansion. Rather than designing the game to tell a story, WoW instead focuses on the gameplay stuff (raids, dungeons, etc) and uses the story as a means of moving players into the endgame content.
Even the best writers would struggle with trying to tell a good story if they had to deal with not knowing how much of it would be cut because the dev team managed their time poorly. I also suspect that's why so much of WoW's story ends up in books. The writers have far more control over the book than they do over the game.
I'm not saying that the writing team are blameless for all the story issues, but I do think their job is made more difficult by the poor time management of the dev team.
I'm thinking about How to Train your Dragon.
Because of Rashaget's design?
I CANNOT take Razageth seriously with those teeny arms.
This title clickbait and frankly I am disappointed that you are doing that. It make me not trust you and then not watch what you produce either. I am just one person who took a few seconds to write this, and even if you delete this comment, all the people who watch this will think the same thing. It's not like they don't know what death means.
It was a fight to the death however. The fact nobody died does not deny the fact it WAS a “fight to the death”, with the intention of one entity trying to kill the other.
@@Athelarius "deadly fight" or something is ok but "fight to the death" implies you arrive there. i think. "road to miami" means road goes to miami, it doesn't stop in Ohio and leave you hanging.
@@Athelarius You're incorrect. If was a fight to death, someone has to die, it's that simple. I am not going watch your videos anymore after reading you trying to justify your clickbait bullshit in that reply.
YOU ARE NOT PREPARED
We fought Titans and old gods. Why would this dragon think she stands a chance?
Cuz she didnt know jack
she been napping... didn't get the updates...
Players had borrowed power that we don't have now. If you count this in, we were be stronger back then.
If we still had the artifact weapons at full power we could one tap razzy easily
She knows we have no artifact weapons and stuff like that.
Isn't that the chicken from Monster Hunter?
God these eggs must be hard to lay
7:44 The description reads "Neltharion Becomes Arthas"?
thank you for posting this!! when i was entering the cinematic i got dc'd and i couldn't see it ;;
Sibling vs Sibling, again. Another "Powerful Entity" breaks out of prison. We've literally fought Old Gods, which are far more powerful than the Primal Dragons- so I guess we're taking a step back on the wrung of the enemy danger level ladder and still struggling. Glad I quit, gonna love the end of the expansion when the Old Gods rise up once more and we have to help the Primalists fight them or find out they're all corrupted by one.
I've got a feeling Alexstrasza will be the big name they kill off this expansion
what is the song called at 12:30 ? please help, i need to know, this is such a beautiful melody
Players when a new baddie comes out: 3:34
Blizzard: Because the level cap wasn't that high yet 🤷♂️
Alexstrasza looks even hotter now than before
So, brother, this is what you hid from us.
i love how while alexstrasza got beeg mom talons in dergen form, razageth be like: hehehe claw go PEENCH PEENCH
That spelling makes you look like an adult illiterate.
@@cameronmcewen9666 and then u realize i typed it like that intentionally as it was meant as a joke
In the end they'll be a new dragonflight added, the purple flight.
How did they make Alex even hotter. Holy 😍😍
1v1 didn't work against Deathwing either
lmao she has tiny t-rex arms its so funny
I have no clue about wow but this is the dragon from Shrek
Has anyone else noticed Deathwing's actions were not of a villain during the time travel story?
No proof he tends to use them as weapons against his own and only turns to the side of old gods once his creations' lives were in danger as well seal them away even when they would have been still loyal to him and able to be controlled by the old gods.
Nothing Deathwing did make sense if he was evil at the time he did it if anything it proves he might have been a good guy up to the point of old gods power being used.
Ehhhh. You see a cutscene in one of the quests that revealed that Netharion had actually enslaved the Dracthyr using a titan relic. The attack that caused him to turn to the old gods accidentally destroyed the relic, releasing the Dracthyr from his control. He put them in stasis because now the Dracthyr were free and were not guaranteed to not question his orders. He was 100% using them as weapons because he was using a titan relic to ensure the Dracthyr could never disobey him.
If they had no pathetic T-Rex arms and looked more like GoT Dragons these had actually potential.
Lmfao
Agreed that the tiny arms look off but keep in mind that the proto dragons first debuted in wrath of the litch king as less wise under evolved dragons. These cunning proto dragons are something new/forgotten we are seeing in dragonflight
Yeah the arms are such a mistake
Rather have T Rex arms than bald nipple bass boost
@@lorefreak94 I see where you're coming from, makes sense evolution wise, but still looks both hilarious and sad at the same time...
Don't think you know what "to Death" means
Lol, when neltharion becomes arthas. 7:43
Alexstrasza is always bae
Really makes me go "So the aspects never did anything useful?". Okay, sure they stop Galakrond but that was before getting the upgrade. They get the upgrade and barely manage to beat the unpowered flights, can't beat the demons,, Don't stop the orc invasion, can't stop Kelthuzad from killing like 1/5th of the world.
They never do anything that matters once they get empowered.
Sylvanas died and came back became warchief and a main villian
What is the version of Invincible at 9:27?
I don't think this person understands what a "fight to the death" means.
Is there any possibility to watch this cutscenes and cinematics without voices? (Language voice intentions)
I'm a big lore fan, SL crushed all my hope for a decent lore and DF is doing no better.
Having said all that, DF by far has the best zones even for antiquated wow engine, it all looks beautiful. I have long forgotten the story which I enjoyed all the way to the end of legion. I now play DF purely for the content it provides and so far, I'm very happy.
There is still that lingering hope for the lore to get better.
Their were dragons in rtlk,cata, zadalar and only mentions of arthas .
What is this title lol "They fight...... to DEATH!" except no one dies
