[@ironcladnomad5639]

As a non-player, this is probably my favorite WoW cinematic. Several reasons why. - I'm a sucker for orchestral music that's aggressive and relentless; this one hits both without breaking a sweat. - Deathwing's roar is distinct, an accomplishment I feel is pretty rare these days. If this played during a commercial, I'd recognize that sound immediately. - I love the fact the trailer doesn't present us with a character so much as a force of nature. This is meant to showcase an event and it *feels* like it. - The color palette is brilliant, notably how they juxtapose the soft colors of sunset with the hellish light of Deathwing. - The cinematography is stellar, unabashedly cinematic and visceral to a fault; there's undeniable size, weight, and power to what's unfolding.

Pretentious drivel

[@catbot8014]

When a depressive black dragon does more damage to a planet than Sargeras himself..

[@cxyte814]

Deathwing was a villain when WoW was a normal game and bosses had impact on the story/lore Sargeras was the main villain when WoW was an anime starring Illiadin

[@FabbrizioPlays]

@@cxyte814 Okay, but Legion was the better expansion. Everything Cata did right with Deathwing starts and ends with this cinematic. Dragon Soul might be the worst raid in the game. And so many leveling quests in the post-Cata 1-60 zones are easily broken by normal gameplay (looking at you, Horde-side Ashenvale on druid). The only good thing Cata really gave us was the Worgen starting zone. Legion on the other hand had incredible class fantasy, some of the best raids to date, and consistently beefy patches at frequent intervals. Remember Suramar? Remember getting basically an entire expansion's worth of new story to accompany the new zone? I don't think any patch ever has or will rival how fantastic it was to get Suramar mid-xpac.

[@FabbrizioPlays]

@unknowning unknown I sure didn't mean that, because we didn't fight Archimonde in Legion. You're thinking of Hellfire Citadel in WoD.

[@andrehanisch1327]

Keep in mind that deathwing was not depressed but driven mad by the same people who drove sargeras mad so they work for the same team but neltharion was already on azeroth while sargeras first had to find a way to azeroth so I think it's no surprise neltharion could do more damage ^^

Deathwing used to be fun to hang around with. He and his buddies Alduin and Smaug would go out, raze a few villages, smoke some Old Toby, mock Ur Dragon for being so unpopular and Ender Dragon for being so blocky, pretty much enjoying being dragons. Ever since he got rich from Cataclysm he thinks he's too good for them and would rather leave them hanging to be Blue Eyes' plus one to the KaibaCorp soiree. Alduin felt betrayed and vented by trying to eat Tamriel while Smaug became a recluse in someone else's home. No one has heard from them since.

[@ThatCrendorGuy]

[@ZombieFighter95]

I'm probably the only one, but you know what I would've liked? If they kept the old zones until level 80, then the whole Cataclysm happens and you could chose to level in the new zones or the now destroyed, revamped old zones. This way you could still enjoy the old content _and_ the new content.

It's not so much hot metal attaching to his skin than it is a giant metal bandage forcibly holding his form together for the first time in eons. Ever since his first use of the Dragon Soul caused his body to practically rip itself apart from the fiery corruption now perpetually burning within him, he is in a state of eternal agony. Having that one strip of metal get seared across his sundered flesh probably added to the pain.

Lets also see their weaknesses: Deathwing: Dragon Soul, a weapon 10.000 years old that he forged himself in order to destroy the other dragons. It holds the power of the other four Dragon Aspects. In terms of power, the Dragon Soul is the Death Star (from Star Wars) of World of Warcraft. He dies while under assault from an Alliance Gunship, 25 heroes, the Dragon Soul, the other four Dragon Aspects and Thrall. Smaug: Two black arrows....

[@FinalWingz]

Who the fuck cares!?

[@alexandrospapadopoulos4297]

if you read the comments you will see that a lot of people are debating on this one

[@Devantedavis313]

Damn he has a point, two black arrows lol.

[@Top10Dudes]

stop comparing please, and remember that tolkien is the father of all fantasy, without him and his smaug there wouldnt be any deathwing

[@Devantedavis313]

InfiniteHD and MacMarco You're sort of comparing creators now lol. Without other things there wouldn't be a Smaug! But you are right, I don't think others should compare two great ideas.

[@Galejro]

0:00 = 0:30 Basically what I feel when grinding XD

[@Matty94]

+Galejro hahaha nice!

[@theinsfrijonds]

+Galejro Being a tank was incredible during Cata's pre-nerf launch! Instant queues with bonuses at select times (the longest I waited for a queue was 5 minutes at 3 a.m. for a specific dungeon.) I geared up so quickly and had so much more skill than the majority of tanks. Back then, skilled accounted for something. It was this BS Candy Crush Saga "check all the right boxes" game design that's compatible with the majority of people. There was a gradient of skill that you progressed through and you were thanked by your raid and your 5-man dungeon content (the latter of which remained relevant through pre-nerf unlike the new 5-mans.)

[@paleface171]

+Galejro Or when you are sitting through an expansion drought?

[@jordick8427]

+Galejro 0:00 - 0:30 Basically what I feel towards Blizzard when I learned that the last Deathwing encounter would be a fight against some tentacles instead of the actual dragon himself. Sure, the old gods did corrupt him and made him more...tentaclish(?), but the outcome was quite different what I was expecting when they first revealed the Cataclysm expansion and its antagonist.

[@diesel581]

+Galejro I feel that way to. Also when Blizz give EVERY class a heal, movement boost, stuns after stuns, stealth, abilities to slow others down. And especially making this game able to play easy for 5 year olds. Only good xpacs were BC and WotLK. When Cata came out the game has been going down the drain. And now its going down it even faster.

[@mitchellscott-young5501]

Smaug and Deathwing are just meant for each other!

[@gabrielevella8062]

add alduin and you have the trio of badasses

[@PrimarchEldarAutarch]

***** How is Alduin badass at all? He's just some emo git that thinks he's hardcore, I seriously don't understand why people like him so much. Tell me, what the fuck did Alduin do that was so amazing? Fly around and call you a noob?

[@mitchellscott-young5501]

***** Ah i see, Deathwing is the Tank, Smaug is DPS and Alduin is the Healer, :D

[@naciabell7903]

So...This is deathwing? The same Deathwing who was smoking a Hooka in lord of the clans? Well, least I can say one thing, Blizzard made a change for the better when it came to him.

[@zIkA835]

yes thankfully it was

[@acorr14]

Him smoking was because of a misunderstanding.

[@archdruidbookwalter951]

What's funny is he gets killed by Go'el/Thrall in both universes.

[@artellius7477]

I don't know if its true or not but someone said that what he was smoking was some kind of an essence of an old god which kinda makes sense cause he was corrupted by an old god.

[@daletorrisi4038]

he is kinda pissant compared to wow lore tbh

[@XBullitt16X]

if only the game looked this good

[@johnmcclane-nz4de]

Yea then nobody would be able to play great

[@mariosblago94]

computers cant handle that yet. They improved it a lot, but if they add more fps, shredders and polygons, then only a few people will be able to play it smoothly

[@XBullitt16X]

Mario Sergio I didn't mean it literally lol . what I meant was if the game looked at least a bit more similar to to the cutscenes. Nowadays almost any mmo looks better than WoW's dated graphics.

[@mariosblago94]

Bullitt that's debatable. It is what works for an mmo. You want everyone to be able to play it with minimal effort so there is more subscribers.

[@mariosblago94]

None of them make as much money, none of them have been going on for 10 years, none of them have 6million players.

[@mikeiscoolerthenyou]

I wish his voice actor could read me a bedtime story.

[@DarthVader19991]

Back here again, Cataclysm Classic is coming. Not sure whether to laugh or cry lol

[@leftthumb4249]

I personally Think This was The best expansion, Because I started playing then. I remember that Login screen. God Me and My friend were fangirling so much. I just remember that music... Nah. I didn't go to Raids. But I enjoyed Duengons though. I loved the art of the game And I fell in love with the soundtrack. Deathwing is still my favorite Villain. My favorite race was born with Cataclysm. Worgens. ''Alliance Dogs''. That made me feel like deathwing too. Just remember walking to Stormwind, Seeing it Broken a bit...Ahhh...I loved it.

[@cobaltnetherwingdrake7048]

Exactly same feeling to me! I began in Cata too, one of my greatest times ever!

[@leftthumb4249]

Well I wasn't playing WoW at Lich king Or Burning crusade. Cataclysm was the best. And It's my opinion. It will always be my best expansion.

[@ximenacerezo1590]

I don't consider it the best because I didn't understand what was happening, I was just like BIG BLACK DRAGON YASSSS But it was one of the best times for some of us

[@TheFreek753]

Casper Axelsson Uh, no. It is not impossible for someone to say that they enjoyed Cata.

[@eloura]

I agree! I've been playing since Burning Crusade but I had the best memories in Cataclysm. Also, Deathwing is awesome.

[@StoneyWoney]

I bet Smaug would piss his pants in front of Deathwing.

[@go-xn8ow]

+Théo LOIS oh... Galakrond, that book (idk if it is the title in english, i'm just translating it from portuguese) rise of the aspects from Richard A. Knaak actually gave me chills about that dragon...

[@goose_loose]

Uh no

[@stevehitman]

Still better than WoD...

[@TheSkulltastrophe]

+stevehitman if youre talking about the cinematic, then no if youre talking about the expansion game/gameplay/content wise, then yes if youre talking about lore then no.

[@vmf150]

+stevehitman yeah and the cata mounts were great! i love that winged guardian lion

[@stevehitman]

***** I don't PvE.

[@vmf150]

PvE >>> pvp. I prefer killing an epic boss like Lich King was than win a stupid bg or arena

[@stevehitman]

Vini Mattos I don't PvP, I like to lvl chars and explore the vast world of Azeroth!

[@Kyjohnson1500]

Hands down one of the best dragons in gaming history!

[@kawaiarinokripperino9719]

i got the beast in my sight

[@Yonsekk]

i died xdddd

[@33-117]

I've had multiple nightmares about Deathwing breaking through my wall and melting me alive with fire, absolutely terrifying. Hope we get a dragon boss soon. Cata was the best they've done of having an end boss feel like a threat constantly.

[@blaeks]

darn😮

[@RosstafaGaming]

Even though MoP is better overall in my opinion, I much preferred the style of Cataclysm. The Deathwing encounters are still my favourite boss fights.

[@ntabiblaze]

how to fight an evil dragon? Back massage and Platform hoppin to trim his nails....woohoo ._.

[@RezifulMC]

ntabiblaze heck, they even had a fight that was actually pretty epic and could have been amazing had it been deathwing in his place in the same raid. of course im meaning ultraxion. cataclysm was really a giant missed opportunity, so many options for amazing fights just thrown away. only good counters of cata IMO were raggy, nef and twilight council

[@ishallkillall]

ntabiblaze but if you think about it, every boss we fight is gigantic so we're very professional at trimming their toenails.

[@aoaoaoaoaoaoaoa5701]

i felt the deathwing fight should have been like Onxyia back in the day... just a giant dragon and you have to dodge the tail and have fire resist (onxyia's skin) I remember wearing that lv 55 cape at lv 80 when they raised onxyia... resists arent even in the game anymore are they?

[@АлександрГинадьевич]

I completely agree with you. Cataclysm - 4ever.

How far WoW has fallen, to go from this to the state it is in today...

Do you know why Deathwing got so pissed of he screwed up half of the Azeroth? He didn't get the Overwatch beta invite.

[@johnnyjizz15]

Jerry Baton LK had the best content, CATA had really good content and the gameplay was awesome. I stand by it. CATA was the best.

[@RubberFacee]

What does this has to do with my comment?

[@ProInSnow]

I hate to join the fray of comments but the way I see it is like this. A lot of people that say Blizzard ruined WoW after WoTLK seem to be riding on the good memories and nostalgia stirred up by these trailers. Blizzard wanted a new audience and more subscribers so they had to start changing the game. The people that complain about how terrible the game is after all of the change would probably complain about how the game never changes had Blizzard stayed on the same track. A game this old needs to evolve and adapt to it's audience. I'm sure that there are tons of mechanics that the developers have introduced that you are actually quite happy to have and if not, go play something else. Don't sit and whine on the doorstep of the girl you once loved, go out and find someone new. The world is a very different place today than it was ten years ago and things need to change. Look at a game like Battlefield for example. People complain that they are just pumping out a new polished version of the previous game every year and taking the customers money. Wouldn't you been annoyed if Blizzard took our hard earned money and never did anything different with it?

[@Padarius38]

Myles Ganske Hard earned money? How hard is it to make 15 dollars? However, i agree with this statement. I do wish they would put forth the work and create legacy servers for people who wish to remain old school It's hard to walk away from something you have invested a lot of time into. Everyone is different i guess.

[@blackham7]

Myles Ganske I absolutely agree some of these people need to start saying maybe its not blizzard but me just because these people cant accept change nothing ever pleases them

[@MagusFyre]

Can you believe Deathwing was actually controlled by an Old God this whole time in Cataclysm?

[@ARHanif-ej7oz]

I think yes. Besides, they drive him to the state of insanity and madness. Their whispers--promising him a great, supreme power, knowledge, and Azeroth itself--had gotten into Neltharion.

[@jessebyrd5621]

The titans really are to blame, giving Neltharion power over the Earth - knowing that the Old Gods themselves were entwined with Azeroth, thus exposing him to their influence.

[@adamkummert8824]

MagusFyre to get

[@thereandbackagain7034]

And we already knew about his corruption from BC and warcraft games. Plus, the war of the ancients dungeon.

[@grayvestowne5751]

N’Zoth: Hey

[@arceptor]

why does this look better than the dragonflight cinematic, 13 years later? it's insane.

[@bigdanbilzan]

They dont introduce the baddy anymore in cinimatics, less anticipation

[@Bottlecapppp]

2 different themes, cata was about the world literally tearing apart and dragonflight is about rediscovery but still cataclysm cgi beats by far

[@GoodVulture]

we live in an era of unprecedented cultural and systemic decay

[@nickshares4806]

This cinematic and “reckoning” are my favorite

[@rattlehead999]

IMO TBC, WotLK and Cata have equally great cinematics, but WoD's cinematic is unmached, BFA's is also amazing.

[@marcellowheeler88]

Every time I think of cata I think of the funny quest chain in badlands.

Literally every single East Asian country: That's not a dragon. A dragon is lengthy and wingless, yet still flies.

Cataclysm had the chance of being the greatest WoW expansion. and at the beginning it was looking like it until people bitched and got the dungeons nerfed. and that atrocious Deathwing fight.

[@twinsenjo8345]

Aerys II Targaryen (the mad king): Burn them all! Deathwing: Hold my beer

One of the few good things about this xpac is this trailer imo ^^ and damn his fucking voice is fucking awesome!

Yes, it is admirable.

[@Iceblast1995]

Deathwing has the same voice actor as Lich King

[@name7251]

Iceblast1995 Really?Well I don't know who vioced them both but I need his voice,the most epic voice in existence.

[@Mazra42]

Name The voice actor's name is Michael McConnohie, and he's voiced Uther, Kel'Thuzad, Lich King and Deathwing - to name the largest roles.

[@MeetYourDarkSide]

I remember BARELY getting into WoW at the end of WotLK and seeing this. This STILL gives me goosebumps

[@deathbreach3448]

WotL and Cataclysm were my favorite in all honesty. The cinematics were not only awesome, but the gameplay was adventurous and intense. The story twists were the best.

[@HaseoOkami]

My favorite Expansion! Don't care what anyone says, people just be mad because they destroyed the original Azeroth forever and they made it hard at first then decided to go super easy during the middle of it( when it came to raids at least). Basically had a Great Bad guy( evil dragon always works), with a great story( fall from grace again... but hey "Fallen Angel" are always compelling imo), awesome reconstruction of the zones, awesome new races (gimmicky and serious love it), just was an awesome Expansion.
