. . . This might be interesting actually. Like what they did in "Sins Of A Solar Empire: Rebellion", where after years of constant strife and war, each faction started fighting itself over what should "Really" be done and splits into ideological factions bent on either trying to find peace for the greater good, or continuing the war due to perceived distrust and cultural incompatibilities. Yea, there does seem to be quite a bit of Peace Talking with some big-name characters. But we all know more than a few people in either faction are far and above just wanting the constant war to stop; they want the entire other side annihilated with no mercy. Grudges dont just disappear overnight, and with sleights happening left and right, it is as Taran Zhu said: "Every reprisal is itself an act of aggression, and every act of aggression triggers immediate reprisal!" It would just continue the cycle of sheer warfare.

Imagine gameplay at this kind of level, they sure can make em cinematics lately.

[@alejandroderienosa4828]

The funny thing is the pandas have already told them all this 5 years ago and any representative from their race isnt even mentioned or seen amongst the leaders...

[@beerye3]

Yeah, but then they'd be Pandaren to the masses.

[@Xelzeno]

Ah yes, Arthas and Daelin... Funny how the Alliance have to go that far back since last they did something bad...

[@7jc1rr9]

yeah, about time the alliance gets some internal drama. I'm getting tired of the horde being the butt of the joke for the last expansions. Maybe some internal conflict about how the humans don't trust night elves and draenei and we can have a little faction swap(since it seems the forsaken may return to the alliance, it'd be fair to trade xD)

[@darknessvamp]

I mean when Anduin keeps justifying/retconning the stuff he’s okayed as “orders misinterpreted” or good because it was the Alliance who did them then sure. I mean Battle for Daz, preemptively having Spy’s attack Civilian Miners and surveyors in the wound and giving Genn the go ahead to attack the Horde in Stormheim and assassinate their faction leader during Legion still happened but it’s aokay as long he’s in charge.

[@curts7801]

Yeah, some serious Mary Sue faction here.

[@CIAinTaiwanAndUkraine]

I actually wish Vereesa/Tyrande to go Daelin 2.0 and then there's a rogue Alliance faction with Danath, Muradin, etc. and we would have to kill either or both after defeating Sylvanas and loyalists

[@StevenSvN7]

Funny seeing Rexxar here, seeing as how his main reason for joining the war was because he wanted to fight Jaina.

[@Roboglenn387]

Man this is good stuff. It's our home, and it's worth coming together to save it. No matter how hard it may be.

[@maksymilianziele28]

Anduin: "Then what are we fighting for?" Varok: "For the series keep going... and for money of course!" Goblins: "You said it, pal!"

[@joshuadeakins2929]

Breaking the cycle.... until next expansion when some arbitrary conflict inevitably arises again

[@zivnoel7146]

Lorthemar again.... just standin there....standin'...there.

[@fatalexception1269]

Zappi Boi not too bright with 'Where are we going?' - reminded me of the same line from Pippin in LotR.

[@JDSilins]

No, Saurfang, don't break my bicycle, how will I get to work without it?

[@kanekikayrakayra8653]

You guys really late to publish this stuff.. I think this is my 30th re-watch :d i am still speechless..

[@AlgaInventory]

Holy, these cinematics are amazing!!!! Also, Valeera's new model looks aaaaaamaaazing❤ For the Sin'dorei! FOR AZEROTH!

[@peterilles1258]

These videos always wants to make me subscribe again.

[@dennisengelen2517]

At least try out classic, it's awesome and the feel of community is soo intense! :) Also open world PvP with ACTIVE PvP is back now if that's your thing! Mayby classic is just a temporary hypr or mayby it'll end up as successfull as OSRS did, who knows. Worse case you can at least enjoy it while it lasts. :) It's only $15, there's stuff in life you'll waste much more money for so what's the harm to try and see? :)

[@amontepye]

That breaking the cycle line hit

[@creative_watcher]

Ok, we know this is amazing, cinematic, lore, animation and so on. But can we have this chilling Saurfang theme released?

[@befree1797]

This is not a song that chill you, its His and anduin voice

[@burnbobquist8999]

Amazing lore? What are you? 12?

[@befree1797]

@@burnbobquist8999 after This comment i know already that you never care about anylore in game or you're This 12 yrs Old kid

[@JamailvanWestering]

The lore is terrible dude

[@mantyxxx]

I hope that 'breaking the cycle' means, that we can play horde alongside alliance if we choose so.

[@GhostWarrior334]

To this day i'm 100% sure 0:17 is the Arthas model walking up the stairs

[@AMRsti93]

Zappyboi: so what are we doing? Varok: getting 1 shot by sylvanas in a duel

[@TalosAcephalos]

Ey, just like bolvar

[@whoknows2442]

Breaking the cycle, meanwhile 9.1 where still not cross faction PvE

[@robertgeorge2011]

Serial wc rts vibes and I loved it Is this an in game locations though? I wanna go there now

[@MrIanWG]

I assume this is in the Razor Hill region. That's where their camp is through the quests following this cinematic.

[@LSGSWE]

I think they're in dustwallow marsh, given the gloomy and sort of lushy area around them... I haven't seen that many trees anywhere in Durotar

[@Hjylps]

*The Chain starts playing in the background*

[@potaterjim]

"how many can you provide?" "Enough for one final assault..." "I got an idea. You got a spare horse or something?" "Uh yeah, it's got some fancy armor" "perfect." *One raid later* "Wait, I don't have enough horses to give all these people..." "Oh no, that's the best part. 0.01% drop chance."
