Exploring a Northrend Obliterated by Deathwing

[@derbigpr500]

It's amazing how much effort and detail Blizzard puts into things that players are never supposed to see or find. I mean the actual instance in which you're supposed to play is like 1% of the size of the entire instance zone.

[@Jovan654321]

It's mostly just copy-paste

[@Rockbagaren]

They just cut out a square and made all snow i dragonblight dark. Removed the NPCs and water in some places and thoght it was enogh.

[@DanielRenardAnimation]

As others already say, it's just "copied". It isn't a lot of wasted data, since MMO maps are usually just a surface with coordinates for repeated structures and models. I learned this the hard way, when I wanted to make a video, using a map from a game, which had a lot of trees, despite only being around 10MB in size. It was the same few trees, just placed with X,Y,Z coordinates and rotation values, but saving the map as a different file, rendered each individual tree, suddenly blowing it up to several GB.

[@luckyhands4995]

derbigpr500 it would literally be more work to remove this. Its already there. The effort was put in prior to 2012

[@devinarendt6138]

@@DanielRenardAnimation That's called instancing, which saves memory AND gpu computation time since every tree is just a pointer to a static memory address.

[@Vamcat]

You have such good videos and such a soothing voice. Its perfect

[@bangbangg9736]

I like to imagine one day, someone will be exploring these areas and suddenly come across some secret clickable door that was almost impossible to find. Entering the door would face you with who knows what secrets..but I often wonder if there is anything like that in the "glitch world"

[@Heontris]

More hidden mounts?

[@zayon0170]

MAN HAHAHA I AAAALWAYS DREAMED ABOUT THIS!!! Always dreamed to find a mount/trasmog in the most unaccessible point of the wole world of azeroth maybe like 1x server hahah it would be soooo cool

[@TheSilvershadow200]

Well, who knows. The secret mounts, pets, toys and mogs already existing are ridiculous to find and I commend the players for managing to.

[@MarkTheMadMan]

Love your channel!! Im glad someone is continuing hayvens vision of WoW. Keep up the good work!

[@Rawizorak]

Yes, another video! I love this series, keep up good work! :D

[@HiddenAzeroth]

Thanks!

[@WaxPaper]

Man, that Dalaran music brings back a time and a place. Takes me straight back to that expansion.

[@ohnoezitsjoez]

It would be cool if during the areas that are notably changed, you do a brief "picture in picture" video or screenshot of live, to show the contrast as you explore. Just an idea!

[@linkzellda]

To be out zone areas, Blizzard sure love to put a lot of detail to them.

[@TheNightWolfeX]

Found you from suggested videos, didn't even have to watch 2 seconds of the video... You gained a new sub my friend.

Holy crap... you're right. I've been misreading those for 10 years.

[@SirJorb]

You also said "Murzorond" instead of "Murozond", as well as "Magnus Commerce Exchange" instead of "Magus Commerce Exchange".

[@casplays2318]

Looks like someone is following hayven. Good to see. :) must he rest in peace

[@nyoom7495]

lf you think this is "following" Hayven you must be out of your mind. That's like when Bieber thought he could take over after MJ as the king of pop. And, it's "may he rest in peace". You tried.

[@zayon0170]

@@nyoom7495 boring arrogant and rude idiot

[@davajita]

I may be mistaken, but I believe End Time is the future where Chromatus and the Twilight's Hammer has taken over the world, thanks to the meddling of Nozdormu-turned-Murazond. This is why Deathwing is impaled on the top of Wyrmrest temple; he was killed by the Chromatic DF.

[@Soeck]

immediately had to look for this comment, after he said that dw had impaled himself.

[@martinolivares1567]

I don’t understand how murazond could have defeated deathwing if it took all the dragon flights and hero’s to take him down. I thought it looked cool but didn’t make sense to me

[@アイギス-e4s]

Great, quality videos. I was hoping someone would pick up the torch after Hayven's unfortunate ordeal (RIP). Looking forward to more videos! Having said that, burn don't burn yourself out.

[@CptWhit3y]

Thats crazy...still don't understand why they put so much of Northrend in a instance.

[@joshuatunis6732]

Hey dude, may I make a video request? How to escape from Hellfire Ramparts into the instanced version of Hellfire Peninsula? If you're in the area of Omor the Unscarred, you can see that his platform inside the dungeon is larger than the uninstanced 'outside' version. This means that Hellfire Citadel's model is different both inside and outside. I'd like to know what it looks like!

[@HiddenAzeroth]

I'll see if theres a way to get outside and check it out! Thanks!

[@chairmanmeaow6379]

Hey man, just to say I love your videos, can't wait till your blow up on youtube and get a bigger following, it is definetally going to happen :)

[@HiddenAzeroth]

Thank you! I've already been blown away by the amazing reception I've gotten so far. I've loved exploring hidden areas in WoW for as long as I've been playing, and it makes me really happy to know that people are enjoying the stuff I'm making and getting to find out about cool places to explore for themselves.

[@SirPhteven]

[@raven_jpg5100]

This makes me wanna explore every inch of the whole dungeon/raid list

[@cujoedaman]

You know, this never made sense to me. Even if we failed to stop Deathwing at the Maelstrom, he wouldn't be here after the Hour of Twilight, he would have still been in the Maelstrom after his body literally tore itself apart. He wouldn't have had any legs or wings to fly there. Still, I do love the look of this, they did a lot of awesome work on it. Also, I wonder if blizz sinking the unseen ships meant they had a different idea for this, like this would be a phased zone for us to quest in or something to that affect.

[@HiddenAzeroth]

I believe that this is the timeline where we fail to recover the Dragon Soul in the Well of Eternity. Because of this, Thrall is never able to kill Deathwing and cause him to fall into the Maelstrom, and he's able to complete the Cataclysm unimpeded.

[@cujoedaman]

I kinda thought that too, but with the horde gunship sliced in half, that says to me that we made it out of Northrend. Hmm, maybe the Skyfire was downed by Warmaster Blackhorn. Then again, blizz isn't known for their awesome continuity :P

Sup ^^ loving your videos, been binge-watching since I discovered this channel today :D Do you also have a horde DH? Would love to do some parkour in Silvermoon, see where we could get ^^ I was trying to get as high as possible up on the Sunfury spire, but got stuck in the big space where the crystal is held, as there seems to be no further way up there, given some of the textures are collisionless, which somewhat ruined the fun for me :/ :D

[@Rageee]

If the Portal Stone works you can troll a friend very good. For example he left the Stone and outside is the end of the world without any npcs and a bad weather

[@WakoDoodle]

Just had a stupid idea but what if for the wow anniversary event; blizzard created a new instance that you and your friends can enter that has bits and parts from existing maps that are hidden or unused mashed together in one area; with signs or player-triggered voice lines (repeatable) that talk about what they are and why they were cut or where they're located. Think of it as a developer map like TF2 has, where just for the anniversary, you can explore previously locked off content that boundry breaking would only show and give a glimpse of how world of warcraft is made to the player? It is a celebration of wow after all.

[@krisz9976]

AMAZING VIDEO! I love exploring the secrets of Azeroth, and other planets aswell!! Glad to see you're channel is booming in 3 videos! Crazy stuff man. Whats your secret? :o

[@AdkAqua]

So this is going to be kinda convoluted but hopefully understandable. Have you found any instance portals that lead to POPUULATED instances within any of your exploration in these zones? Like... Breaking out of an instance to exolore, say, vanilla era WPL with a functioning portal to a populated version of scholo? Portal within a portal, Instanceception style.

[@JorshusPrime]

heres a demon hunter related tip that im surprised you didnt use... if you use vengeful retreat and hit your wings at the right time you glide faster than usual... you could have hit dalaran that way as well... ill give this a try, good video

[@Spartans371]

keep it up ive always wanted to explore these kind of areas but i never knew how and i dont own wow (also private servers for new exp come late and often arent good) subscribed a week after the first vid :D

[@sunwalkeredaaga4154]

Garoco all of these are from old expansions as the content usually needs to be soloable (often you need to kill a few of the bosses before you reach the escape location).

[@Spartans371]

ye I know but but as i said the exp come late and i have to wait a lot of time to get started with the private server because i cannot afford it at this moment to buy wow and i dont have that much to invest in the game and thats why i mentioned private servers because there i can take all the time in the world. also i look for a good wow server (not looking forward to play wow at the moment just sayin) where most of the stuff is scripted properly so that i can experience the game as properly as possible and then do this stuff

Since these are instances you can't duel correct or is it outside of the no duel zone

[@HiddenAzeroth]

I'm not sure since there wasn't anyone with me to test with, but I'd guess that you actually wouldn't be able to duel, as Dalaran seems to have the same restrictions as it has on live. I was even considered as in a rested area and able to insta-logout while in the city.

[@cmbp435]
