He was sent to deliver the night elf's order but he got hungry on the way and ate it. In order to save his hide and act like he was enlightened he went on and on about the real food being inside us all along when the food was already inside him... all along.

Man you're a really good and charming warcraft content creator, don't limit your self by just covering classic WoW forever, the orc clans video showed how awesome and entertaining your stuff can be when you're not boxed in.

[@kallmannkallmann]

this was not limited to classic tho?

[@Vektor480]

Well, most of the lore on this video was from Cataclysm forward.

[@rdsasuke1]

@@Vektor480 I admittedly only watched the first minute before leaving the comment so my bad on that. But my point still stands i'd love to see his sense of humor and paper cut outs applied to Legion or other newer expansions.

[@Vektor480]

@@rdsasuke1 Sure thing, I totally agree. Even though the lore of the game went a bit downhill after Pandaria (imo), more plat content will always be welcome, I don't care even if he talks about other games

[@PlatinumWoW]

Totally agree and I plan on expanding past Classic. There is such an overwhelming amount of Warcraft lore that I've kind of just focused on Classic for now. But don't you worry, videos in a similar vein to the Orc Clan video are on the horizon.

Have you ever been so mad that you threw a tree into the ocean?

[@krim7]

No, but someday... 🌳👀

[@year111]

Garrosh did that to the world tree in a short story.

[@emptank]

The truth is Norzdormu actually only gave the night elves immortality because he knew that in the future they would need a man who was as much of a badass as Malfurion was and he wasn't certain the night elves would get that lucky twice so he needed to keep Malfurion alive long enough to do all the awesome things he needed to.

[@Barholtworld]

I actually do read my quests, and leveling in kalimdor would have to be one of my favourite and diverse leveling experiences in video games ever. So much layered lore, and quests grand and small.

That ending there; I facepalmed so hard my hand went out the back of my head and kept going until is slapped the dark side of the moon.

[@MoreLikeMagicMan]

Platinum you should make a video on why Malfurion is such an asshole. LIke. Disowned his brother and had him imprisoned for - Saving Felwood (Oh but he used fel magic >:CCCC I disown you!!!) - Giving the Night Elves immortality (We dont need another well of eternity!!!!! Imprisoned for life!!) - Marrying the girl Illidan had a crush on - Illidan saved the universe while Malfurion was asleep and he still found a way to be mad at him. Malfurion is an asshole

[@Sarik0497]

And don’t forget the fact that when Tyrande was left to die by Maiev, Illidan, despite taking heavy losses by Maiev and Malfurion’s troops and Kael’thas’ elves, he still mustered enough forces to lead an assault on Scourge settlements to save her, and all he got was a “hmph, I still don’t trust you, but you can go for now.”

[@heartlessmushroom]

While Illidan is no slouch when it comes in being an asshole either (Siding with the Highborne to gain access to The Well's magic, Holding Akama's soul hostage as leverage, Opening a portal to Argus so that the forces of Azeroth would stop fucking around and get done with it, Killing a prime Naaru in cold blood (and to be fair, that thing had it coming for having no concept of consent)) , finally someone said it. At least Illidan admits he's done wrong on his path to defeat The Legion as he does not ask for forgiveness from neither Tyrande nor his brother in his farewell message. But to give Malfurion a little credit, he's less harsh on his final response than Tyrande was.

As far as i remember when the satyrs took Tyrande the book described him as mad not sad and he lost control of his powers and caused a big storm/vortex that pretty much surprised Archimonde and Mannoroth because they were getting sucked with the low level demons too.But that was from War of the Ancients part Three.Stormrage might have retconned that part.

[@gabrielreed8039]

It did not.. You are part right.. He was 'mad with grief'.. He just gave up (since at this point, his brother wouldnt help him and his childhood friend was gone) and let his emotions overtake him. I dont remember if Archimonde or Mannoroth were surprised at the storms power since Archimonde had an idea of how powerful Malfurion was at that point.
