Powerful moment for Sylvanas. You can tell from the look on her face that she never thought anyone could trust her that much. She's completely stunned for hours, trying to wrap her mind around what just happened. Then at the funeral she seems to decide that the Horde, not just the Forsaken, is worth fighting for. In that moment you see a bit of the ranger she was before Arthas killed her. Then Blizzard decided she was the next Garrosh, and killed her character deader than the Lich King did.

@nickbrowne963 жыл бұрын
@@christianziphone A bit late here but the Alliance were the aggressors throughout this storyline. When Sylvanas sent Goblins to collect azerite, it was the Alliance that attacked first because they didn't want the Horde to have their hands on it. On paper, the Alliance pushed and prodded every step of the way (dating back to Genn Greymane's soldiers breaking a peace treaty early on in Legion). It just doesn't seem so from a cinematic perspective because the writing just simply isn't there, it's sloppy. The story would have been much better if Jaina succumbed to arcane corruption and bombed Orgrimmar in retaliation to the destruction of Theramore, which is what was supposed to happen. There were leaked audio files of her voice lines which display exactly that back then. Blizzard pussied out of a great story and instead diluted Jaina's character by turning her into a short-sighted individual. Look at when she pushes Varian to end the Horde when Vol'jin was crowned Warchief. That was honestly a pathetic, downgraded version of their original intent and it really damaged her as a character imo. Aside from some lackluster expansions content-wise, this really was the turning point for terribly story-telling by Blizzard. Jaina's corruption and influence in the Alliance would have completely set the path for Sylvanas being justified in every difficult decision she's made since. Instead, they watered down the Alliance's aggressiveness as much as possible to preserve the "good guy" mentality. Fast forward to current events, everything they've done with Sylvanas in cinematics is completely on point and in line with her character, but she's constantly misused throughout the actual gameplay. The Alliance is immune to corrupt/evil leadership while the Horde has been subjected to it for multiple expansions, so they can have another rebellion so the Horde players feel justified in the end as the Alliance players get fed super basic good-aligned heroes. This is why people laughed at Blizzard for saying Sylvanas is morally grey, even though she really is. They just don't see the bigger picture because their knowledge of lore is based off the cinematic experience and the handful of questlines they actually pay attention to, which are always biased for whichever faction you're playing.

Imagine if you will, a reluctant new war chief. Who always fought for herself, now in charge of everyone else. Thrust into the limelight: only her cunning and ruthlessness being tools for carrying the Horde through the horrors of the Burning Legion. That was a great story arc for the character. What a bloody shame all the writing that came after that, with BFA and Shadowlands effectively working together to sap all the good will, momentum, and interesting story beats out of that one moment they so perfectly cultivated. It's like if Mona Lisa retroactively had shit smeared all over it.

Sourfang wanted to go against her from the start. he was the most demoralizing horde member. Yes, Sylvanas did bad things, horrible even, but when I have seen trailer for defending the undercity and she said "For the horde" and he ran all enthusiastic and when he had his little chat with that troll kid and decided that he will fight....then the real game starts and he refuses to fight as soon as the game starts, becomes depressing and surrenders himself. Later as he explains to Anduin " What Sylvanas really is" its more like he is projecting. Sure, she was horrible but she is in no way another Guldan. No matter how bad she is, her ideals are different from Guldans, he sounded like he wanted an excuse. She didnt want to even fight him, he insisted on it. Sylvanas did many bad and inexcusable things but her reasoning was different. If you want to face an opponnent, understand them first. She craved no power, she just wanted to fill up the maw for some reason. Also I think that a servant of light should go with the Naru, not be brainwashed to serve the fake angels or anywhere a soulless construct deems they should be. Afterlife wasnt supposed to be this way, they highjacked it and started playing gods.

For those wondering why VJ wasnt healed, if you paid attention after broken shores horde side (for those doing demonhunter I recommend you do horde broken shores too) then you learn that he was struck by a fel-blade which poisoned him. Not only this, but VJ himself "refused" to be healed when Baine offered, this is because VJ never 'wanted' to lead. The role was forced on him, it was a role he was never suited to, like Garrosh. VJ was a warrior, not a leader, at best, he knew how to rally a rebellion and lead armies, but manage the Horde as a people? That was not VJ's strength. VJ understands that, and Sylvanas, Sylvanas may not be the best leader, infact thats the entire point, shes the WORST since Garrosh. But Sylvanas has a chance for redemption here, a chance to show she is not the villian like Garrosh was. She's sort of like Rick Grimes in Walking Dead, she can do what no one else can, make the hard choices, lead the people, decide who gets what and divide rations and ammo amoung the survivors. The Horde is a race of survivors, and though she is undead, her people cannot reproduce and thus, to survive, they must kill, and reincarnate others into their ranks. She knows the Horde better than the Horde knows itself. But now, she has to lead it. That, will be the making of her, and as VJ said, you have to step out of the shadow and lead. She too hates the idea of being responsible for everyone, but she has a better understanding of what everyone "wants" and was the one to diplomatically bring the Blood Elves into the Horde so she is not incapable of being tactful at Diplomacy. Shes a manipulative, cruel, ruthless, heartless woman that has done some terrible, aweful and unforgiveable things. And yet... That is exactly what the Horde "needs" to survive. Hence... why VJ chose "her" and no one else.

I cried so much when i saw this cinematic. As someone who has followed the world of warcraft lore since i was 9 years old, the stories of voljin and what he represented were always of great value to me. Taking away such a character 10 years later, hurts like hell. Rest in peace voljin, your sacrifice will not be forgotten

Blizzard has stated that Vol'jin'sstory may not yet be over. He has Bwonsamdi, so perhaps we'll see something of him yet.

I am still pissed as hell about this. I mean Vol'jins reign as Warchief was filled with nothing. He showed up at the Level 3 Garrison and thats it. It was disrespectful to him and all his potential with the possible Troll Empire expansion and how he would interact with them. Instead he gets stabbed by a random demon and dies from poison, leaving Sylvanas-I-am-totally-the-new-Lich-Queen Windrunner as Warchief ? Lets even drop that see how both leaders die. Compare this death to Varian's where he went off like Highlander, getting stabbed twice by demons and getting blown up by Gul'dan... All the while the glorious Horde is sinking back like this... Vol'jin's reign is such a waste of story that it is painful to see this is how it ends. Also, who is the Troll Leader now ? We are already in limbo with Orc Leader and now Vol'jin , the most prominent and maybe the most commonly known Troll is gone too so who is leading them ? At least Cairne had Baine as his successor but now both Orcs and Trolls are leaderless. And don't expect me to accept Sylvanas as the general leader, her dealings will cause even more trouble. I mean she is making a deal with HELYA for god's sake. How is that something a Warchief would do ?

Honestly well made cinematic. Small detail I love if Lorthemar of all people, a guy who spent hundreds of years warring with the trolls as a high elf, serves as a pallbearer. That and plenty of foresaken and elves mourning Vol'jin and joining in on the chants at the end really do show how an alignment initially out of convenience evolved into genuine comradery for many.

This has nothing to do with Blizzard being PC. Sylvanas is the last of the four leaders of the original Horde yet to be Warchief (although Cairne never was but he's dead). To start off; Baine isn't fit for it, Lor'Themar is a nobody still, the Goblins doesn't have a fucking leader, Thrall isn't interested in it and I actually don't know who is going to lead the Trolls now. Fans have grown to love Sylvanas and Blizzard making her the leader is nothing but fan service and what honestly makes most sense, she's been fighting for the Horde ever since she was reanimated, although she's been misguided a few times, I think she's going to fit as the leader of the Horde. That's what I think at least.

lore wise think metzen has plans for her. 1 majopr thing was in wotlk where after arthas died for good her purpose of vengeance for what he has done is over. with nothing left and to live for she literally committed suicide when she jumped off of icecrown citadel. but her story didnt end since the val'kyr they brought her back from the dead and made a pact with her knowing she will do something big in the future. if ppl wonder no way metzen could have FULLY thought out the storyline which okay thats kinda true (cough cough WoD) but doesnt mean he hasnt thought of major points he plans to do so hoping this is one of those major points he planned long ago for sylvanas. maybe something huge happens to her in end of legion if he did plan this for her for a while.

Sylvannas is the leader so there can be tension between her and Greymane, that's it. Baine and Lor'Themar both have proven themselves more than capable, even more than Vol'Jin, but they wouldn't create Alliance vs Horde tension.

There aren't many cinematics that actually make me feel sad or hyped.

To bad the alliance side didn't see it. Actually the alliance side is quite left out in this case. Or they get their stuff later. Not to mention ... I waited since the time I started playing for sylvanas to be warchief. First time I meet her in undercity with my bloodelf hunter. :D
