[@Kallikukurinn]

Basically what MrKnaives said. They ran out of material from Warcraft 3 and characters from the first two Warcraft games (Deathwing from Warcraft 2). Activision Blizzard can now only go down the Disney route of member berries. Member Kael? Member Vashj? Member Uther? Member? And now they can only retcon to death established lore so they can pull the "AKCHUALLY" card. This whole expansion has been just that, diminishing characters and previously established lore just to keep the carcass going and pretend that they are presenting us with deep and great lore. If it has to come at the expanse of previous lore, you are not adding to the story, you are literally butchering it. Just let the past be, allow the dead to rest. Please stop draining the corpse Activision~

You don't even have to be good at writing stories yourself to see that the current storywriting team at Blizzard can't. What surprises me is those who are calling us circlejerkers are perfectly willing to eat a plate full of shit. And how is it even a bad thing to just let things end? To just stop?

It is said that fel consumes to soul and that's how Guldan died. I'm not 100% sure on that, I'm thinking fel consumes the anima around the soul. The more anima you have the longer it takes fel to consume your soul. The body will disintegrate before the soul is consumed (this is also how they could have Varien in SL). Also the last remnants of Nerzhul are in 9.1.

[@HanithSVK]

Hmm what you said is quite true, but i don't think that age has something to do with it. More like lack of ideas. This game is here for nearly 20 years(WoW i mean), not to mention W1, W2, W3 + TFT so it's not surprising that they "lost their breath". They are still trying to "make game better and lore more complex", but they are totally lost in it. Plus, with each expansion, they are trying to throw somethin "bigger, more evil" at you, but as of now, there is literally noone interesting left. You even killed equivalent of "evil gods" and now you are going to defeat "evil aspect of death" itself. What else can you do? Champion(player) of WoW experienced pretty much everything game like this can offer(RPG, MMORPG). Big raids, nostalgia with Lich King and Illidan, old gods, titans, time travel, space travel even afterlife. What else they can introduce?

And now canonically 15 years after that, when he has spent the whole time apart from Vash, seething in pride and anger while she moved on from her mistakes, surely they would still be the same characters from WC3 too?!?

Nah bro. Its bad writing

[@nevermore7285]

And in Warcraft 3, we only saw him after the Blood Elves fell and he was wrought with guilt. We never actually saw what Kael was like, and considering he was a High Elf Prince in a race that was famous for their species wide arrogance, it probably wasn’t anything like what we saw of him in Warcraft 3 and much more like what he is now.

[@realvojcek]

What Is the music on the beginning please? I was searching for it a very long time and still don't find it.

[@zqwc]

I've farmed Ashes of Al'ar enough times to know what Kael'thas actually sounds like and this ain't. That being said, I really really love this voice actor, Same guy who did Axel from KH2/3 and Raiden from Metal Gear Solid Revengeance.

[@hardcrewz5715]

Sooo.. anyone seen Gul'dan in Shadowlands?

[@LeprosuGnome]

There isnt much of a change in the voice, in the acting tho... Kael was never arrogant, not sure why he is so arrogant now.

[@mex321]

Kael'thas: My father and i ruled the FIINIISST!!! kingdom in aauulll the wo0o0orldd! Some good voice acting here.

[@stevenrusch6341]

One big failure that Blizzard has inflicted is making their characters so blazing snobby.

[@games12444]

Is there a link to the first soundtrack in the very beginning?

[@goblinounours]

What pains me as much as the voice actor for Kael'thas is the decision they made during TBC to drastically change Kael'thas' character. He was the loyal type, honorable, thinking only of his people... and they twisted all of these values off-screen to make us fight a disloyal, selfish betrayer prince. Thanks to that, Blood Elves have no dynasty anymore, we're stuck with a regent-king that will never be a true king.

[@agnosticnixie]

Kael didn't want to be king (I guess after 3000+ years of one king the high elves just sort of forgot how monarchy works tbh), that much was lore that predates BC. And honestly having only the humans who end up with absolute monarchies is funny to me

[@games12444]

What soundtrack source is played at the beginning??

[@GlitchBytes]

kaels old voice actor from wc3 was perfect, so much better than this new guy. yet in the wc3 remake they made him a beefy he-man face, which doesn't fit him. and lore wise he was retconned twice, from turning him into a mustachioed cackling villian the moment he set foot in outland to a full on second retconning in shadowlands where he becomes a pompous childish brat which they punish him for, yet which he never was. he was retconned that that is what he was but he never really was that! and honestly he was a quiet spoken prince (yes with some princly arrogance) up until the retcon as you can see from his voice in wc3 and the books vs shadowlands and the new terrible voice actor. shame they shat on his lore so much, and to this day he's denied justice. the writing really is bad, or else so many people wouldn't be upset. you can bring in new material without tearing up lore of old beloved charchters. it's like in TBC when they first retconned him and just suddenly make him and Vashj ultimate evils cause they wanted a quick boss to throw in, and wrecked what could've been endless awesome story to grow by just knocking them off as cliched baddies. lazy stuff for deadlines and a quick check, now they are like Disney unable to create any new good stuff without milking the husks of good charachters. if they were respectful to kael and vashj true lore, we could be teaming up with them to kill the scourage and fight the sanlayn and have endless opportunities. or even just closure would've been nice for these long time heroes where kael at least gets justice. i can only cope by telling myself he made a clone of himself to leave in shadowlands, while the real him peaced out to Dota2 as the Invoker.

[@gekkokkid]

i can't be the only one seeing that blizzard is putting to much detail to the dreadlords both in story and character models, we ever see blizzard put so much detail in both gender in a race un less they are getting close to turning them into playable raceses.. maybe it is just me, but something about the dreadlords new lore and physical appearance seems off....

[@nevermore7285]

The Dreadlords are a major part of this expansion, of course they would updated models and such
