why is evitel's reaction in english, aren't they swedish? as a bilingual, I know your brain can stick to the second language instead of switching back to native, but i'm just saying.
I have been waiting for them to release the tracks from the zone from the very second they posted that youtube short with a snippet of the music. The music for this expansion is super flashy.
Final Fantasy XIV has way better music. The latest expansion has 66 songs on the soundtrack, ramping the total amount of music to 896 songs. Compared to WoW? 🤣 The Dawntrail soundtrack must have at least 6 hours on it.
Evi's so cute when she finds out in real time. "Oh noooo...."😆 On a more serious note though, I imagine that makes script writing very challenging at times and you guys do great!❤
I would love to see Evitel to musical analysis videos. Not just for TWW music, but any pieces from other expansions she'd find interesting to talk about. (I just really enjoy art analysis videos.)
Me: Oh Boy, I cant wait to hear this Xalatath theme! Xal's Theme: [CACOPHONOUS STRINGS] Me: WHAT IN THE SHOSTAKOVICH STRING QUARTET EIGHT IS THIS (Edit: Loving the classical inferences to Faure in Hallowfall and Shosta in Xal, cant wait to pick the inspo while I'm running around!!)
other expansions like wrath and legion were very good but this expansion I feel like could be one of the most important for the game because it marks a return to form for many which was started with DF but not properly finished in the eyes of many players.
OMG So glad to hear the music getting talked about! I've been enjoying the login screen since the patch dropped and seeing the names of the tracks make so much sense. Xalatath's theme is so fucking brilliant and original in all its spooky greatness, and the way it lands on Alleria's theme so seamlessly? Boy, for how quickly the DF login music grew old this is such a big improvement and I'm all here for it.
@@adamslosslessmusiccollection when Tali played the zone with the "lahee" music, it literally gave me anxiety cause the "lahee" always came out of nowhere. Definitely enhanced by the low music volume and Tali talking over it, but... it was not good music.
I'd swear I remember hearing about the appearances of all quest reward items being given to us regardless of which reward we chose quite a few years ago.
This video will join the 'living rent free in my brain' zone because: 1. Its the first time i heard Hallowfall theme and i love nerding out about music 2. Best opening skit ever 6 Xalataths/9 destroyed Dalarans, would recommend
@@davidgiegerich3028 Looked up Dawntrail, it has a bit over 47 hours of MSQ (main story quests) gameplay including cutscenes. So with the War Within, you are basically getting a cheaply made but expensive DLC story 😂
This is going to be a bit of a stretch, but I’m willing to bet if you listen to the music, somewhere in there if you have a device to view the cymatic frequency of the music, you will find the Beledar form within one or many of those tracks. If you look at the image of the beledar from chronicle book 4 the top and bottom perspective looks like cymatic frequency, physical representation of sound waves. The light functions highly off of frequency and sounds, he’ll even the Naru themselves look like wind chimes. While it maybe a reach, I think if you could find the right cymatic frequency within these tracks, that could also give you another potential spoiler to some of the events to come. I’m still stuck that the beledar is a gate, and at the right frequency, you can blur the lines of reality and our perspective of it.
idk who it was that posted the "clarification" but there are clips of ion and morgan directly stating and talking about unlocking all armor types on your character.
When quests say that your warband have done this quest before, that should mean that you get all the quest rewards when it comes to transmogs. Retroactive is such a W
The transmog changes are welcome. I'm looking forward to getting all the armor types from Shadowlands without having to do each covenant four times. Thanks Blizz...I can wait a little while longer.
Did you guys notice that Jaina’s live voicelines include red spoiler bot spoilers? “Dalaran… Another home lost to war.” “We survived. The Nerubians will not” Is that intended do you reckon?
The issue with the class specific items, like tier from legion, is that they're not warbound. They're only soul bound. So you can't put them in the warbank.
The hidden consortium of Addons apreciattes your effort. You will be recieving a card from us in the upcoming days. Stay scripty, stay safe and stay customizable.
You were a bit wrong about class specific appearances. It IS a big deal. Previously it was impossible to collect class sets that dropped directly without tokens. This includes sets from Molten Core, BWL, and Tomb of Sargeras. The pieces were souldbound and NOT able to "chuck into your warbank". You could do that with tier tokens, but not set pieces that dropped directly
Back in Legion, I used to tell my non-fiancee that I didn't trust Khadgar. Near the end of the expansion, I just didn't have a good feeling about him, and I started saying 'He's going to turn out to be a bad guy, just you wait.'
GAAAAH I love how "Xenoblade awful good church villains" the Hallowfall music sounds and I can't wait to go to war with the Seanchan-I mean Arathi Empire from across the sea! (Just as an aside, making Comparisons to my favoirte video games and books is absolutely supposed to be a compliment, and tropes are the pillars of genres!)
@@RyanofAndor If we can get use out of Lovecraft and Norse Mythology to build WoW, there's no reason we can't have Rand Ara'Thor and his Dragon Tattoos and our young bearded king who's afraid to lose control over himself again!
I have commented that the Arathi are obviously the Seanchan in every video on Hallowfall! We are definitely several who see this connection! There are dozens of us! Dozens!
Totally agree about the music. About time someone says it. Music is very much a huge part in the experience of WoW... It's like Elder Scrolls or Lord of the Rings movies. 75% of the beauty is the music.
Tali, I know you call it the 'War Bank', but I prefer to call it the 'Band Bank', and not JUST because of alliteration. Mostly I just like imagining it as my band locker from back in high school... but I would really like bard specs for all classes inspired by Hearthstone, because it's hilarious and an easy way for all classes to gain an augmentation spec... and kinda the inspiration of WoW given the whole game is based on an all bard group AKA the 'Elite Tauren Chieftain'.
I literally NEVER have WoW music enabled, but after hearing that small clip, I think I need to re-enable it. I'm missing out on a huge immersion aspect of the game.
I'm not sold on the "Threads" naming convention, it feels more like it was just the right name and motif for a story about Nerubians, and considering how they pushed against the previous formats of these in Dragonflight by telling one story in 3 parts, I wouldn't be shocked if these animations were just less explicitly apart of a united series. But I like the progression of the Nerubian/Xalatath one we got, then one focused on the Arathi, then one about Khadgar and Dalaran. I would love to *also* get one about either the Earthen or the Haronir, since they're the other interesting allied race candidates who will hopefully be important this expansion, but their animations would get saved until they actually became relevant, like the Ashara Warbringer.
The music as always is a high point in WoW - I love that snippet of Hallowfall you played but the show was stolen by the snippet of VT where the NPC comes in and sits in mid-air above the bench!! xD
Great intro! Still it poses the question if they had to buy that nose hair trimmer as a requisite or if it is actually prep equipment for the show - nevermind, I don't want to know. 😅
These QoL changes for Xmogs are nice, belated but nice. Can't wait for the day that Blizz finally also listens and makes legacy reps, warband reps so I don't have to grind the same rep a million times. As usual Blizz music department delivers another banger. If only the story department was as good and competent as Music and Cinematics. But hey can't win em all.
I'm somewhat glad to see the spoiler at 21 mins in. Allows me time to mentally prepare for the loss of [something] key to our experience in at least 2 expansions. Not sure how the Bronze Dragonflight is going to help out Loremaster/completionists on this one though?
The opening cinematic will be: khadgar talking to a disturbed alleria, which keeps hearing Xal' altat's whispers. While she gives a final warning that she can't take it anymore, void errupts out of her like an explosion, causing the magic that protects and keeps dalaran in the air to instantly disappear, along with void rifts opening. Leaving the city in ruïnes. And then we fight of the void entities.
I love you got Evitel's reaction and left it in.

Kinda reminds me of orthodox chants like Mother and Child
I could see the life draining out of Evi's eyes as she found out about the transmog bug.
The way Evitel delivers these off-beat thirst jokes about Xal'atath with the same cadence as her reading-the-news tone is fucking gold XD
the fact you got the Xal'atath music to line up with her opening her eyes at 11:31 sparked something inside me
An erection? ._.
Yeah that was some veeeeery sweet editing
Despite all its MANY-- MANY-- flaws, WoW and its community just fill me with a comfort that is hard to describe.

Agreed
The Xal’atath bit is even funnier since I’m pretty sure Taliesin mained a Priest in Legion.
exactly why the skit exists, he's been obsessed with Knaifu since Legion.
Those behind the scenes of the script revision are golden! Thank you

How long are WoW soundtracks? Last I checked for FFXIV, their soundtracks are like 5+ hours of music.

Lol yea they tried to pull an imo reverse card but the backlash was so massive they had to give in to the community. Blizzard still as scummy as ever.
The music at 11:12 just changed how I looked at the orbs swirling Xal. It changes from Orbs, into void eyes staring back at me.
The moment I began to realize the old cinematic for Khadgar was indeed named HARBINGERS, I GASPEDDD LOL
God I already know I'm going to be so nostalgic for this login music one day
Blizzard ALWAYS lands the cinematics and the soundtracks. Shame their systems and in-game lore never goes as hard.
I literally laughed so hard at that opening, snorted like a psycho in my Uber! The driver asked if u was OK 😂

Ayyyy Minty shout-out! We stan
Mom and dad are such superstars. S tier skits as always
Omg the visuals for the birth of a titan XD
The panic music very much gave drowning in sonic vibes but more orchestra lol
This was one of the best episodes you guys did. Really funny and spots on! Great job! P.S. The bit where we see Evi reacts live to the news is nice.
Xal'atath dream that we've all had? Can confirm. Also.. That soundtrack!!!!!!
The music actually gave me goosebumps, wow.
That intro was gold
Woohoo, reset time!!!
The issue with the class specific items, like tier from legion, is that they're not warbound. They're only soul bound. So you can't put them in the warbank.
Seeing Evi just kill the jokes has had me belly laughing. Great writing all around!
that opening though ... do i smell an Oscar?
"I can't stress this enough - not mine".... well I was not curious before this
idk why but this is one on my favorite weekly resets. ty!
