He was the best, and he deserved better in Shadowlands. Better to just remember his story up till Wrath. The best story within the franchise that could spawn movies, series and endless creations, yet he stays buried on the shelf.

nothing after Arthas departure from wow, his final battle felt real for me. That was the culmination the ending for my story in wow from my time in it many things in life changed too... I remember enjoying FFXI online in the forests outside Sandy first learning about WOW in chat, FFXI in it's prime was something very special to me also. No games since have left such a mark on me as those days and nights logged in. Thanks for this video Athelarius, I hope your journey in WOW is a blessing to you and yours

It was a character that deserved to be redeemed in Shadowlands, it was so sad to see how the writers simply destroyed any chance of making a comeback. Arthas was just an innocent puppet of the Frostmourne and (later known) the Jailer. His soul could be saved, as the souls of Garrosh, and Kael'thas. I love the Warcraft franchise and lore, but to me, it was a point of no return.
@Athelarius3 күн бұрын
The only confusion is that in Warcraft 3 Kil’jaeden says the Lich King is his creation, that’s why he sends Illidan to destroy him. Aside from that, they really could’ve brought Arthas back and redeemed him. They did it with Illidan in legion, and it’s clear Arthas soul was ripped out by Frostmourne so his actions were not his own

The story and end of Arthas was the culmination of everything WoW (and to some extend, Warcraft in general) stood for. With him, not only a tragic hero and great villain died, but a part of the Soul of Warcraft as well. For me, his story remains as one of the greatest fantasy tales I've experienced.

It looks like it when we see Uther throw Arthas in the Afterlives cinematic. Then I believe there was meant to be another patch in between 9.1 and 9.2 and it was scrapped. Hence the long delay after 9.1 as well.
