The Story of Lei Shen "The Thunder King" - Part 1 [Lore]

[@rdsasuke1]

God why was Mists lore so damn GOOD. I was enthralled and watched the whole thing despite knowing some of it already.

[@JohnDoe-vn1we]

It was shitty written garbage.

[@rwade4387]

John Doe it wasn’t garbage... was it random? Yes. I wasn’t pleased with how out of place it felt but the storyline was intriguing to most people. Looking back at it, blizzard used MOP as a cash grab as that’s when they introduced more store purchases & microtransactions.

[@rdsasuke1]

@@rwade4387 That's complete bullshit. Nothing about it was out of place.

[@writershard5065]

@@rwade4387 I'm glad you appreciate it, but if anything, I felt like it was fit into the existing lore very well. And with Chronicles especially, Mists' lore ties in with the existing game's lore so well that it feels like the other side of the coin that we just never really saw.

[@borek92]

Back View Honestly? No other Warcraft work has hooked me as MoP did when it comes to lore. Not even W3. This expansion oozed with so much love and effort, it had a lot to say on the surface and under it. I miss is dearly, already did when I killed Garros for the first time and the story was over.

[@Skollshorties]

Honestly one of the most underrated Antagonists and VIllains of WoW. Thanks for covering yet another gem from Pandaria Nobbel.

Sometimes you gotta pick between going to sleep and watching some spicy Warcraft lore... I don't need sleep, I need l o r e

Oooo, I love that Nobbel doesn’t only do the new lore, but also goes back and tells us about old stuff!

God, i wish i was active during MoP, so much great lore

This is the perfect video since I just finished reading Vol’jin Shadows of the Horde

[@s.larsen1874]

I agree...perfect video

[@seiretzym]

I just started rereading it! Crazy timing. Awesome book

[@areoan7167]

Such a great book I really hope Vol’jin is a major part of shadowlands

[@seiretzym]

Oh man, me too.

[@Rizerr96]

I wish there was more lore about pre-sundering azeroth. If Lei-Shen believed mortals to be beneath him, what was the mogus relationship with the Night Elves? I know that the mogu, under Lei Shen, had an alliance with the Zandalari trolls. But what of Azshara?

[@Forcy-20]

Agreed. Still, Lei Shen's first death. Happened over 2000 years before the War of the Ancients so Azshara wasn't the Night Elf Queen yet.

[@ladysyberia7419]

Yeay you did it!

[@iceheart1289]

Thank you for another great vid Nobbel

Nothing like some epic and spicy WoW lore in the morning!

[@willbouzeneris]

This video is great, but according to chronicles vol. 2 chapter 4 paragraph 3 sentence 4, the lore is off

Anybody else out there still holding out hope for playable Mogu?

[@catxborsuq1]

Yeah, thought that since we're getting a mogu faction to level up rep with in patch 8.3 then it would be possible for them to become an ally race :/ Maybe after Shadowlands.

[@TheRealNekora]

would be cool indeed. tho im joping for Naga. no mather how little it makes sence. tho it makes a bit more sence now after Azara(i think thats how you spell it) bit the dust once

[@TonyNumber9]

@@catxborsuq1 I want playable Naga and mogu

[@beastmaster0934]

Honestly, Alliance should’ve gotten Pandaren, and Horde should’ve gotten Mogu.

[@Animaster89]

I mean i hate gnomes like everybody else but i think thats still not enough of a reason not to mention them as one of the titanforged 1:36

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@Cronoo]

Had not realized how much there was to his story

[@liberatusblair]

Everytime I see how deep the lore actually is, I weep about all these missed opportunities and how blizzard does nothing with it. It seems they create lore in order to explain a reason to kill stuff. Rather than create the lore first and then create stuff to kill.

[@TonyNumber9]

Been like this since beginning of World of Warcraft

[@liberatusblair]

@@TonyNumber9 which sucks

[@TonyNumber9]

@@liberatusblair indeed, but that is how Blizzard is from 2004 to today

3:32 I just noticed something. Is it just me, or does Argus’s helmet thing look sorta like Lei’shen’s crown.

[@PandaWolf525]

17:40. Ya can’t fault the Thunder King for the one.

[@AtomicVisionary]

The Mogu have to be my most favorite race in WoW.

[@simoneconti7635]

Pandaria is my favourite zone!

[@waarcutie1980]

Good job mr nobbel, just one thing did u leave out «the war of the 100 kings part out» ? :

[@sohkaswifteagle2604]

Quick question. All data mining seem to indicate we will KILL N'Zoth in 8.3 did Blizzard forgot that killing old god is bad for Azeroth? or people say kill but mean defeat/re-imprison If we actually kill N'zoth, what are your speculation of the effect that it couldhave on Azeroth? If we all run to the shadowland, could we come back in 2 extension to a Azeroth overrunned by the consequence of N'Zoth death (like if Pandaria wasn't kept in check by it's inhabitant, the Sha would have taken everyone on the island?

[@battlefury5293]

@nobble87 I don’t know how else to reach you but can make videos if ever zone telling the story from each horde and alliance side ?

[@Nobbel87]

Aye working on it! This is what I have so far: kzbin.info/aero/PLV3Yvqnl3FYft9ndjbmBor3gimOZ1QG2K

[@osamaceasar167]

yo Nobbel what if illidan did it back then in warcraft 3 vs Arthas and destroyed the frozen throne as killjaeden ordered ? was it going to be shadowlands ?

[@ConnorNotyerbidness]

My friend and i still joke about how people think he was voiced by Christopher Lee. "Because its sounds just like him!" When lei shen sounds NOTHING like Christopher Lee

[@RileyRivalle2]

Uhm... Dude, he actually sounds A LOT like Christopher Lee. Have you never heard Christopher Lee shouting menacingly? There's a reason many people made that assumption. The voice actor is Paul Nakauchi, though.

[@futureking1138]

Now Varok is dead, I look foward to a complete do over of his story line next year.
