If only Reforged was given a fraction of this love.

[@barnek2594]

I was left speechless after Gul'dan's vision with Medivh...

[@danielbraman5562]

This feels like everything I wanted the warcraft films to be. I never really thought about what it would look like for the orcs setting up camp in the destroyed Stormwind. Ogrim's tenuous position as Warchief and Guldan being an untrusted prisoner are such interesting moments to see in action. Really love the work you guys have put into this!

[@beiberns]

What I don't get is the two of em stopping Medivh was way after the events of the flm.

[@danielbraman5562]

@@beiberns I'm not sure about the old lore. But I thought gul'dan fell into a coma because lothar killed medivh while they were doing spirit a call. Then he wakes up mysteriously after some time has passed.

[@GEOgraphicdesigner]

@@beiberns at the end of Wacraft 1 Human Campaign, Khadghar and Lothar search for Medivh and kill him. In the movie was changed a bit, they showed Medivh end fight scene in parallel with Gul'dan fighting with Lothar, but it should've been Doomhammer stopping Gul'dan and Lothar and Khadgar stopping Medivh. It's still cool how in the movie they showed the imporatance of Makgora and orc's honor.

[@mcmarkmarkson7115]

Huge corporations are just terrible at world-building, they can only acquire stuff, but with all the corporate bullshit, talented people are too restricted in what they get to do with it. We have seen it with star wars and LotR and many others.

[@Akandofaul]

Writing grates a bit at times but still more passion for the lore than blizzard has displayed collectively in a decade of works.

[@nansysinatra1977]

I agree, the dialogs are a little overwritten It makes those guys seem way too courteous for the uneducated warriors that they are😄 the visual part, though, is just amazing!

[@johannessimola1615]

They have passion but they try to fuse together different parts of old and new lore and add stuff which were there never in either. Also weird choices like nekros being member of shadow council as he left them before first war and during first war was only a Warrior and only started using warlock arts again after human severed his legg in first war and warlocks powers were needed for use of demon soul. Or teron'gor living true first war as in every variant he died during purge of doomhammer. Or trying to Make rend and zul'jin friends and rend and maim being in every variant mentally on Childs level.

[@TheUrobolos]

@@johannessimola1615 In the case of Rend and Maim, this is faithfull to the lore. They were among the kids the warlocks aged-up with magic to boost the numbers of the Horde. They are litterally 10 years olds in the body of adults.

[@johannessimola1615]

@@TheUrobolos I have to disagree they aren't as immature in their dialogue they should Be for example in events of BtDP maim was still on the level he repeated words rend said for example rend gave speech he was in azeroth to Teron gorefiend when orgrim fell and maim started repeating "I was here too" and rend was so immature he called Teron gorefiend "dead man" which shows his immature name calling side . So they both should Be alot mentally younger and use expressions which makes them sounds childish not mature respectful language which they used for doomhammer and they kept Back talking to orgrim and second guessing him to his face because they were so immature.

[@TheUrobolos]

@@johannessimola1615 Well, Teron was indeed a DEAD man. I think having them too stupid would instead underiine their role among the Horde Leader. After all, they ruled one of the Clans and in the lore they defeated both the Stormreavers and the Twilight's Hammer in the Broken Isles

[@scottwebb4722]

Doomhammer needs to give Rend and Maim a Blackhand slap!

[@hardwing]

Amazing and so very believable! This cutscene could easily serve as outro to WC1, too, the devasted city of Stormwind is horrible for any Alliance player to see, while seeing the Horde banner there sends chills through every Horde player ... and even the banners of the individual clans! Saurfang, Rend, Maim, Gul'dan and the rest are excellent characters and you introduced them very well. Orgrim shows a strength which easily makes him the center of every scene he is in. If I have one point of critique, it is him not mentioning(to Saurfang) the dire situation they are in with so many resources and warriors lost. I'm not even sure if it is ever mentioned in the campaign that the clans of Draenor don't respond to his request(orders?) for their help.

[@94Lich]

Bravo gentlemen, this is a great work of love for the warcraft lore that we all share as a community.

[@XIXERO315]

this is so beautifully well done!

[@moortu]

This is sooo well made! The dialogue of the orcs is a bit too human for my taste though. The orcs should talk more like brutes. like at [04:05]-[04:12]. Rend should not be be saying "that is a very generous proposition, warchief" it's too eloquent. more like "That is a generous offer, warchief. later on, instead of evaluate they should use gauge or measure

[@OutsiderXE]

you need to install more files. see the description on hiveworkshop

[@Jmvcyber]

Check the installation instructions - besides the actual campaign, you also need the asset file and the asset installer. Place the installer within your Warcraft 3: Reforged folder and run it as an administrator (right-click with your mouse and select "Run as administrator). Once the installer opens, click on the "Load Resource" button and locate the asset file. When it's done installing, exit the installer and restart your computer. When you've done that, launch your Warcraft 3: Reforged client and start the campaign :)

[@ubivashka-kun9464]

Thanks for the video. Can you tell me, please, what could be the reason that all missions are immediately open in my custom campaigns, even though I haven't even started playing them? The only exception is the Curse of the Forsaken, company for Sylvanas. In the rest, for some reason, all the missions are available at once.

@@OutsiderXE ok ok cool. Is this official lore stuff we know happened from other sources, or did you guys have to expand?

[@OutsiderXE]

@@TsunamiWombat I wasn't there at the original inception, but from my understanding, it was two separate projects in the beginning. One was more faithful to the original WC2; the other made up dialogue and cinematics based on what we know from WoW lore. When they decided to merge the projects they looked at the original WC2 maps stories, designed quests that made sense in those stories, added characters we know from official lore, made up the dialogue in a way that connects all events logically. I don't know all the details, but from my playthrough there isn't much that looks or sounds made up. It might as well be an official remake.
