Gnomish Intelligence Is WAY Overrated!

[@Goldenbytes3]

Dude, They're gnomes. Of course they're gonna come up short.

[@Hafaechaes]

I thought this was about the passive racial. Was pleasantly surprised :D

[@Arkae]

Oh I completely forgot about that racial lol. Hope too many people weren't confused. Was going more for a good ol fashion roast instead of debating mechanics!

[@Adam-zb5kk]

@@Arkae that's the right choice. More lore bruh!

[@MagnusKristof]

This channel is WAY underrated! But can you do some Horde lore videos? Would love to see that!

[@Arkae]

Thanks dude, means a lot. As ive always main'd Alliance their lore comes easier to me. Though next lore vid i do, ill do Horde.

[@MagnusKristof]

@@Arkae Awesome. Love your stuff. Great humor and detail! Keep on rollin'. I dont know if you do requests, but what i would LOVE to see is a video that sort of introduces the horde's presence in Kalimdor/Eastern Kingdoms, since, they timewise are sort of new there. I mean, Orgrimmar is not a city, its built like temporary fortress in a valley. Thats something that people forget, i feel. The Horde, Orcs and Trolls especially are trying to get a foothold to get a good life going on this new planet. They've been through some shit with the felblood, slavery etc. Watching a video that sort of explains why my orc doing quests in Durotar, Barrens, Ashenvale, Stonard would be AMAZING!

[@Arkae]

Thats actually a great topic and ill keep it in mind! That being said, the lore videos take the most work of anything ive done and typically dont get much love. Its unfortunate but the reality of the situation. As such its not really a priority for me right now.

[@Norrieification]

"What other races are overhyped?" Do you have like four hours for me to rant about the Naaru and the Draenai? You've got all these amazing, complex, nuanced races of the world... And then you've got the damn Naaru. Omnibenevolent sentient bookmarks that you'd have to be a god damn idiot to worship... Oh what's that? An entire race worships them you say!? And they're supposed to be the ultimate good as well?! And they've got a spaceship?! Except, the only thing they do with that space ship is crash it into Azeroth since it gets highjacked by blood elf paladins...Riiiiight. I could go on at great length about this... Anyways, awesome video. This one got it just right. Insightful with just enough humor :). Great vid.

[@Arkae]

The Naaru and Draenai really annoyed me back in the day. In TBC the horde got the crackhead elves which was cool. And then the Alliance, my faction.... got space goats. It didnt feel fitting with the universe at all. I wont pretend to be an expert on retail, but it seemed like Legion and all its outer space shenanigans was so far from what WoW was about. An yet the logical conclusion to the introduction of the goats way back in TBC. Anyway thanks for the continued support man, appreciate it.

[@Recoil1808]

Someone says what we're all thinking! The only thing of note they have ever really done to my knowledge, is act as rather O.K. scouts throughout the second war.

[@ZJArt]

More videos like this! You’re very entertaining to watch. I’d love to see more arguments about other races, if not arguments then just some interesting facts about their lore. Subscribed!

[@Arkae]

I'm glad you liked it! I was thinking about doing one for the Nightelves actually, since personally i think the fact that they came from Trolls is really cool.

[@ZJArt]

Smooth Operator Yes!! Then trolls next!

[@Arkae]

Definitely coming at some point tho low key i think i wanna do the next one on C'thun: The Literal God lol

[@ZJArt]

Smooth Operator Anything would fly at this point, I’m already convinced you’re going to become a popular content creator. Looking forward to the next video, whatever it is!

[@Arkae]

That means a lot Zara ty :)

[@randmuller1267]

Great content mate. Just found your vids, laughing my ass off:D

[@novat9731]

Yeah, but what about gnome engineer bonus. Get that level 63 Arcanite whelp. Truly OP.

[@Arkae]

Hey you just gave me a great idea for a new video! "Most Absolutely Trash Items of Vanilla WoW" lmao.

[@mat9198]

didnt they help build and design the tanks for the dwarfs

[@Arkae]

Idk maybe. Perhaps the Dwarves game them the equivalent of a controller without batteries and told them how good theyre playing. Just as likely given everything else.

[@LeroiWilliams]

Another great video.

[@Arkae]

Thanks man. Even though this was lore related like my other videos that people seemed to like, i was thinking it might also be a huge miss lol. Next one will be less.. controversial, i guess lol.

[@ottofrinta7115]

That's it I'm playing horde. Alliance is just stupid

[@chrisbcarlson]

Haha another great video. As a fellow gnome player the truth hurts!

[@Arkae]

Thanks homie, glad you liked it. And yeah, it is what it is lol.

[@michixlol]

So nice. I know I've said it before :D but I can't stop myself. They did so amazing stories on Azeroth up to WoW. And WoW showed it amazingly. Sadly they were not able to make WoW like WC, where the story evolves like one time for the humans the south is lost to the orcs, it is taken back, but then the north is taken by the plague. I would love it so much to see great stories like Blizzard had in store back then and not only try to fill it up with new races and conflict that is always the same in WoW. WoW also had good stories, but.. they made nothing change. We killed every threat. MMOs are complicated I think. I know it's whining ^^ these amazing videos just remind me of all the great old stories in WC and earlier WoW.

[@Arkae]

You just got me thinking about how cool it would be to have a prequal version of WoW where the patch cycle goes through the event of the first and second war etc. The real Battle for Azeroth. Also all the interesting races. Ogres could finally be playable etc.

[@michixlol]

@@Arkae never thought about that. It would surely be, if it was released well thought through(to remember WoD was not so funny :/ but it was also not the actual storyline)

[@Arkae]

I never played WoD, stopped playing seriously around the end of Wotlk. After Ulduar i think there was a steep decline. But anyway, im really more interested in the capture of Stormwind and Old Horde/Alliance of Lordearon type stuff. Not Draenor.

[@michixlol]

@@Arkae I can understand that. I couldn't take the game from legion on anymore. But I only started in wotlk. To me the true storyline would be the most interesting and not some other dimension especially. I am a fan of the whole lore from night elves to lordaeron and stormwind. To me it's just... That they ruined the story more and more since cataclysm. Before this point it was awesome all the way including the story pre WoW in the WC games.

[@cthuncanthealyoubutican]

They are very smart, but they are too concentrated on inventions, so they suck in political science.

[@ppstorm_]

no

[@Embashe]

Funny Vid :D

[@Arkae]

Ty Ember!
