I've played WoW on and off since Vanilla and as someone who has only recently became interested in the stories of this world, I really appreciate these videos.

[@benkelly7182]

If you’re like me you got from the beginning to end of an expac with absolutely no idea what was going on with the story lol

[@XLBlackBoy]

@@benkelly7182 played through so many like that, cause I was mainly a pvper. Just now getting into raid and story

[@TheIllegalGuy]

"Its plot was oddly paced, it was pretty messy and generally it wasn't that gripping" brother i feel like that also summs up BFA and Shadowlands

[@JoshSweetvale]

Shadowlands was _entirely_ disconnected from Azeroth, and Zovaal was the most boring edgelord.

[@brandonsaffell4100]

Ardenweald has some of the best aesthetic design blizzard has pulled off tho.

[@Thomas_Bjornsson]

i don't think it sums up Shadowlands, BfA's plot was - recruit new armies -> war between factions -> Queen Azshara has returned! -> screw you, N'Zoth is here, while Shadowlands was pretty much "stop the Jailer even though he is several steps ahead of you!" the entire expansion

[@macwecek]

Dragonflight was way worse than Bfa and Shadowlands combined

[@Zittylol]

You can add the W.W. to that lame list of crappy expansions.

[@adams303]

I think WoW needs to focus on telling one story well in each expansion, rather than falling into the trap of just creating more setup for story in the next expansion and so on. Tell a complete story and give a teaser for what comes next in the epilogue.

[@marwa8843]

They tried that in shadowlands lol

[@Menolith]

Dunno, they've been doing that for the past two decades or so. I really can't fault them for trying something different.

[@adams303]

@@Menolith what are you talking about? Virtually every expansion is a confusing mess story-wise. If they just tackled a major plot well, they’d do better. And maybe they could not do endless retcons

[@Menolith]

​@@adams303 If each expansion has been a confusing mess story-wise, then I think that's indicative that Blizzard really should re-think their approach and, say, try to focus on a clearer long-term narrative which would prevent those retcons you brought up. Of course they should just "tackle a major plot well" but that doesn't mean they also can't have more long-term narratives. It just boils down to saying that they should "Just write it better" which isn't insightful criticism because a magic 8-ball could give them that.

[@adams303]

@@Menolith the point I’m trying to make is that they make too many side stories that often go nowhere or only get recalled years later. So a narrower narrative focus may help to prevent that occurring.

[@kubi0461]

It takes quite an impressive effort to make an entire expansion about dragons feel that dull and forgettable. I hope they change a lot about how they design and tell the story in the war within.

[@randomthings1293]

[@solaufein3029]

Blizzard needs to understand that we judge and appreciate an expansion's story based on what it is, not on how well it sets up the next expansion.

[@alicem3415]

WoW feels like Dragon Ball where you start out battling a bandit in the desert for low stakes, and then later you're fighting with gods and battling in a tournament where the stakes are the existence of the universe.

[@soapgaming4903]

Dragonflights story was okay. Not the best not the worst. Just okay.

[@alsoniagaming]

It was a good plot in theory, executed rather poorly. I want to enjoy it because the story beats do work if you understand the context, but the writing is so Disney-esque the vibe is just all off.

[@Brandon-yr3nj]

it was like if cataclysm was in pandaria

[@christwubbles902]

It was an excuse to make dragons do stuff. Which is good.

[@papabonedaddy4116]

I liked it. It was better than wod in my opinion

[@A_Nameless_Ghoul3301]

DF’s story may have been lacking, but it’s still a solid A-tier expansion. Not every expansion needs a Thanos/Avengers level threat. DF villains were like B-Level MCU villains.

[@spencerbanks1370]

The lore and history of the dracthyr and them finding their own path along with Ebonhorn becoming the black dragon aspect was definitely the best part of this expansion

[@acolyte10mg]

Returning player from the Wotlk days and just finished the DF MSQ, its funny reading all the negative comments. Compared to the old days of Wow and also other games on the market today I thought the world building and story telling was pretty damn good. Not perfect. But definitely compelling, interesting, and emotional at times. As a returning player it was a lot better than I expected. And i feel like its been incredible value for money with how much content there is.

[@ZimmFor3]

I agree with you

[@modjoe4107]

i will give Blizzard props where its due. having Azeroth give them their powers back is both smart and makes sense. Azeroth is a titan, even if she is unborn. she would be the one to be able to give the dragons their titan powers back.

[@mallkkav]

Second time this month I thought "man, I wish Bellular did a video about this and this" and you guys deliver THE NEXT DAY. I would thank your entire team for the amazing work in all of your channels but now I'm starting to think I'm being watched.

[@AshendrisSilvermist]

Thank you! As a recently returned player I haven't completed(read: barely started) DF yet. I've been more focused on getting all my alts up to 60 so they can take advantage of warbands and the prepatch event to quickly get from 60-70. My only 70 is due to the boost that came with the new xpac pre-order so I'm woefully lost in DFs story and events atm.

[@eggy8108]

Thank you, I haven't really played since BFA (although I did at least finish the Shadowlands campaigns), and really didn't want to have to rush through all of DF before the next xpac drops. This was a really great catchup summary, and now I can just focus on levelling and gearing up my characters instead :)

[@Spectre_418]

Fell off towards the start of Dragonflight but this video has gotten me caught up (with essentials) and keen. Great vid Bellular!

[@Gaden6893]

Phenomenal synopsis my friend, thanks for sharing!

[@guitarhausdoesntknowwhatac3285]

The overarching theme of this expansion was Rebirth; we see this throughout the zones and with the aspects themselves needing to take steps to both step up to the roll and to deal with their past.

[@laertesindeed]

If by roll you actually meant role..... the problem is, none of the aspects ever successfully stepped up to their role in Dragonflight. They all seemed to fail at it and give up.... instead going for some abstract mysterious "family" thing that was never their role.

[@gmee123]

More like afterbirth lol

[@metalscream3934]

Good video, I missed the majority of Df so it’s appreciated

[@larissassm]

I don't know if people would want a new game, or if it even is a remote option, but it'd be cool if after the players get Azeroth to wake up safely they'd just make a new, better game, from that idea. It's great what they're trying to do with the improvements to the game in the last few years, the new races and stuff, but it's just a ancient game, they should direct efforts to a new one, with a new code base, that could be even better improved in the future. Specially because the MMORpg genre is gonna get a bunch of new competition in the next few years and, even if WoW managed to keep itself relevant throughout all these years, it's barely hanging on and everyone can see that... Imagine what they could do with this game if it was a bit more up to date with other games, I think it'd amazing honestly.

[@TheLun4tic]

The Cycle will complete Before the expansion: THIS IS GONNA BE GREAT! Mid Expansion: This is kind of not what I expected but let's see if it will get better. Pre Announcement of next Expansion: The Story is Lame and the Systems suck! Announcement of next Expansion: THIS IS GONNA BE GREAT!

Uh… what does he mean awaken Tyr in the future? The dude is awake now. He’s sitting that chamber opposite the tier set forge. That human what’s-his-name telling him everything that’s happened since he did the memory backup thing. It was kind of a disappointment. Though admittedly not as bad as Ra being sad and pathetic

[@wight4991]

atleast Ra-den had his story laid out back in MoP and we got exposition on what he did, what happened to him and why he is the way he is now.

[@rkramer5629]

@@wight4991 I know, not saying it didn’t make sense. Makes sense for Tyr to be like, woah wtf bro!? Lol I guess I, with everything we know about Tyr, I was expecting him to come out of the corner swinging. I’m assuming he will have a greater role to play in the future, unless the writers forget about him…

[@JakaVerdnik]

@@rkramer5629 The model they gave him, the Tyr's Guard (and a player title of it), and having a whole chain quest to awaken him... yea I'm sure they won't forget this one, don't worry

[@GrumpyRook]

The point is that Tyr woke up, because the Aspects thought they needed him. But they didn't. They grew past needing him. However, being that Tyr was already one of the Watchers that butted heads with the Titan's plan, it didn't take much convincing for him to not be upset that the Aspects regained their power from a different source, not the Titans. I fully expect Tyr to be our ally against Odyn and the Titan loyalists in The Last Titan. We are going to see a full scale reveal about just how shifty the Titans really are and Tyr will have our backs.

[@JakaVerdnik]

@@GrumpyRook He's a Keeper not a Watcher btw, different roles (Keepers are stronger)

[@MongoIndyleo]

Am I crazy or did you just straight up not mention how Tyr actually did come back fully but just has decided to wait around for a bit before deciding what to do? And also did you not mention how the Dragon Aspects were reimpowered by Azeroth herself and that Ebyssian and Merithra are Aspects now.

[@laertesindeed]

There isn't any evidence that Azeroth empowered anybody inside the emerald dream at the end of the Amirdrassil raid. The most likely description using Occam's Razor as a principle is to surmise that cosmic team Life empowered the dragons and that is why they are mind controlled with family and not fulfilling their role for the defense of the planet.

[@rory9975]

Thought he mentioned the azeroth aspect thing twice. Definitely didn't mention the new aspects

[@Ultramarine4th]

I also thought it was pretty clear the oathstones didnt work because tyr was gone. He poured a part of his power into making them aspects. They are now no longer tyrs dragon aspects, they are azeroths. Also he didn't clarify that azeroth is a titan as well.

[@laertesindeed]

@@Ultramarine4th Correction, the dragon aspects are now enslaved to cosmic team Life... azeroth did not do it; and does not exist in the emerald dream, the seed for amirdrassil was made by Elune and empowered with cosmic team Life magic.

[@LazySleestack]

I'm pretty sure The Tear of Elune goes all the way back to Legion. It shows up again in Shadow Lands but it was part of the whole thing where you have to kill Ysara.

[@seraiah123]

Imagine the guy pitching this story in the board room lol. If i was there I'd be like ok maybe just simplify and stick to a couple main pillars

[@donna589]

After I read all the dragon flight related novels from the beginning of the novels, then Dragonflight made sense. Not sure how they could do that in game for people who haven't read the books. The game and characters were very meaningful *after* I read the books. And thank you so much! This video was very helpful!

[@Melethrion]

[@Gman7953]

​​@@sophialafae7160you don't have to, it makes it easier. vanilla wow had a bunch of lore... in in game books and quest logs. in both cases though, what players need is taking the time to read instead of blasting through quests to get to max level faster

So some corrections for you. Emberthal was part of the Adamant Vigil, not Argent Vigil. And the Healing Wings were not disbanded. In fact, some of the blue dragonkin that you rescue during Dracthyr starting area join the weyrn.

[@PolaroidMemory]

I know Dragonflight as a whole wasn't overly exciting but it really did mostly what we/it needed it to be, especially after SL. Iridikron is baller though!

[@greenghoul157]

I kinda liked the black dragonflight we had forgotten about like Sabellian and Ebyssian being brought back and getting development, I like seeing old characters become more important and the dracthyr and primals are a welcome addition to the dragon lore, after the Shadowlands we needed a more down to earth and casual expansion

[@jessetanner5943]

You should do the whole story from vanilla to now! Maybe a part a week. I liked dragon flight after coming back since MoP

[@B1az1ngSuN]

@13:50 how do you see Elune in game?

[@ColdCryomancer]

Were not gunna talk about the fact that they fired the story guy Steve halfway through the expansion? I guarantee that was why we saw this shift in the story suddenly setting up the war within saga. and the war within saga itself seemingly coming out of nowhere once Chris came back. Why would they fire steve halfway through if it was going so well? They wouldnt. He was going to flop on his face and give us another "What is to come" ending and they canned his ass.

[@DrewPicklesTheDark]

I think DF's story was meh, but I can appreciate that it does it's own thing instead of pissing all over old lore like SL and (to a lesser extent) BFA did.

They never explained how the world was wrong, only kept saying it was. I found it annoying that our characters never asked.

[@laertesindeed]

And the thing is..... the ones claiming that the world was wrong..... were villains. Literal villains, doing literal ethically bad things to every living thing around them, and who hated the azeroth world soul and hated mortals and hated any non-dragon life and hated any dragon outside their own genetics. Listening to villain incarnate dragons complaining about the titans is like watching an episode of Cops on tv where a drug-dealing murderer accuses the police of being terrible because they didn't let the criminal get his cigarettes and his hat before they put him in the back of the squad-car on the way to prison. I have zero sympathy for either of those criminal villains.

[@nobodyneedstoknow128]

The point is to replace war with peace to turn Warcraft to Peacecraft

[@JulixLabs]

Thanks for the videos, very informative however I do miss things in WoW. I miss heroic sweaty characters, I miss the time heroes did not speak about their feelings and I miss not being the savior of the planet. What worries me is that they are not creating any new heroes in the lore, no characters like Ilidan, Garrosh, Varyan or Voljin. Alleria seems cool, but she has been around since WC3. I fear once they run out of WC3 heroes they will run out of lore potential.

[@potatoman8194]

Anduin....

[@nickmessner700]

The problem isn't that they aren't making new heroes, because they obviously are. Anduin is a great example, Moira, Emberthal, Khadgar, Lorthemar, and the new order of the silver hand led by Travard are all good examples of them making new heroes. The problem is that everyone new they introduce a not insignificant portion of the fan base instantly rejects and demands the heroes of old, before immediately claiming they're failing to make new heroes. Nostalgia is a powerful drug.

I play in moderation now, without the obsession to constantly upgrade all my toons, and it's still fun.

[@nickmessner700]

A lot of the story is ALWAYS in the raids. Always has been. That being said, the leveling story is the best we've had in years. Right up there with the Alliance side of BFA leveling story or Legion's. If you don't read or listen to the story it's easy to call it bad, but also silly and lazy

This might be an unpopular opinion but here it comes: Dragonflight had the worst story of any wow expansion, worse than shadowlands in my opinion I didn’t hate shadowlands, it was just bad, but it had an overall wow vibe Dragonflight is just hot garbage, castrated and souless, not a single spark of the wow vibe was left in it

[@semfronken6176]

Ngl, I think when I was dragged aside to do all this weird sands of time stuff, it really stretched my interest and attention thin.
