*sigh* the first warcraft book was released in 2001 .. the first warcraft game was released in 1994 .. and your manga point holds no valid argument, yea they made a manga, but it was based off the game. . .instead of the other way around. How is this simple logic flying over your head? No video game to date has the amount of lore warcraft holds, Elder scroll's would really be the only big contender. .

To be Honest.... World of Warcraft, or more exactly WarCraft is has one of the most interesting and richest Lore I ever seen in my life, or at least from Games, im not sure how much of inspiration does LOTR made into WC, but even that, i really like that is not exactly like (Horde is the Bad Guys and Alliance is the Good Guys) every race and each Alliances has their own Heroes and Villains and that's what really makes it more interesting than any other VideoGame Lore i ever see.

While I think this is the best (brief and to-the-point) lore video available, it's missing out on some extremely important points; the largest of which is the war against the scourge, that happened simultaneously to the Burning Legion’s attempt at claiming Azeroth (during what is known as the Third War - Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos), which in turn leads to confusion at around 41:00. The confusion being - “How did the Forsaken come to be, and how are they different form the scourge?” I understand that, at least according to the title of the video, this is told from the Horde's point of view, and that technically the whole part of the story that relates to Arthas’ corruption and to the Forsaken breaking apart from the scourge is told from the Alliance’s perspective. But still, I think it's a crucial piece of info to put out there with all the rest, especially as a way of building the background to the part described in 47:20. I think I would've been completely lost had I not been well aware of the story of Arthas' corruption in seek of vengeance against Mal'Ganis, and, in turn, him becoming the Lich King and occupying Icecrown Citidel. So, to those who feel lost as to what I described, I suggest you watch a compilation of Warcraft III cinematics (search for “The Story of Warcraft pre-WoW (movie edit) part 1/2”, and just cut straight to the Warcraft III parts, since it all happened during Reign of Chaos). Also, you left out a HUGE chunk of info (at around 31:34) regarding Thrall’s escape from slavery, coming of power and the creation the New Horde, with the help of Grom and Orgrim, and then you just jumped on along to the part where Thrall's heading west to Kalimdor because of The Prophet’s (Medivh’s) advice. So, to those left somewhat confused as to how Thrall escaped and did all of that, I suggest again that you go to the video I mentioned above and read what’s written in the part called “interlude”, directly prior to the events of Warcraft III. And, finally, you left out everything, and I mean everything, regarding Illidan, prior to the events of WoW: TBC. That includes Illidan's forbidden release from imprisonment by Tyrande Whisperwind in order to help the war against the Burning Legion, his betrayal in search for power (again), which ultimately led to his escape into hiding in the Outlands after failing to stop, now king, Arthas from becoming the Lich King, plus the reasons for Lady Vashj’s and Kael’thas Sunstrider’s loyalty towards him. All-in-all, great job! Very informative, lovely format, and without a doubt a tremendous effort. Also, lovely speech at the end. Gave me goosebumps ;)

As someone just browsing youtube and seeing this as a suggested video, it's extremely informative to see the flaws in a well crafted video especially when having to do with Lore. I didn't think I'd care as much to look into the missing pieces you pointed out but after realizing the honest effort that went into both this video and your feedback... I just had to and am now even more inspired by this truly creative game and universe. Major props dude. Keep doing your thing!

For new people (or noobs) it's really difficult to follow. Just a series of events with very little in the way of motivations or explanations of what everything is. Also, the writing on the cards only make it more confusing by giving vague details without context.

Illidan didn't really serve the burning legion while in outland. The illidary demons were outcasts of the burning legion and Illidan was gathering all these forces to ward off the wrath if Kiljaeden. Illidan had in fact enslaved Magtheradon in order to turn the orcs trapped in outland into fell orcs. Kaelthas was the one who served the burning legion.

Well Orc's got they'r reasons that wasn't stated in this lore to do what they did. First of All Ner'zhul was tricked by Kil'jaeden, to corupt the Orc's and kill all the Draenei (Kil revange for not folowing him). Coruption spred to the lad drying planet and kiling plant life. Orcs have no choice if they want to survival but to move to another world. Also they bloodlust in first war and so one, was becos of deamos corruption (Mannoroth blood). And one more thing Ogr's orginated from Dreanor not Azeroth. Lastly being deaply interested is something make yuo a fan o geek and not gay.
