Blizzard needs to start animating this fantastic universe, imagine the possibilities, with the story of wow you can release 10 or more seasons, animated in 12 chapters or 8. The public would love to see this universe being open to all kinds of audiences.
Thousands of Shadow Priests saving the world throughout many years and no one bats an eye. Alleria does something similar and everyone loses their minds.
Thats it Blizz. We need more stories like this. Show, dont tell guys. You got some gifted people working for you. Just give them the freedom and the resources to go all out
This is beautiful. An animated series, 1 season per expansion, would be amazing. One of the main issues with new players right now is that the story is so convoluted in-game, and there isn't any good canonical material that people can easily consume to experience everything that has happened so far.
For real! Imagine if, in conjunction with each new expansion, they also worked on an animated series that was released in step with content or something. What an undertaking but if they pulled it off it would be epic.
The animation is amazing Showing silvermoon in its full glory is just amazing Alleria dawning her new armor Elves fighting orcs and trolls Everything about it is just beautiful to watch.
@@keithfilibeck2390perhaps they do perhaps you die or worse but if you die knowing the people you care about are safe will that not fill you with joy even when you are about to die.
Easily the best piece of media work that the franchise has seen since Old Soldier in my opinion. Absolutely amazing and brilliant piece of work right here. Well done Blizzard!
@@alarydavidnin There was no love triangle though. Just Alleria and Turalyon. Unless you count their son Arator they loved and had to leave him behind.
Poor Alleria. She lost her family, she lost the chance to see her son grow up, she metaphorically lost Turalyon, she lost the light. And now she lost her drip.
Omg you guys actually did hand drawn animation. Thats awesome because people really disregard it now but it is one of the arts that should never be forgotten.
Blizzard. You guys or wastinf potentially millions of dollars on physical media in animated films. Whether new stories or straight from the novels, you guys have bucks of money youre sittinf on. Make these animated films already. This trailer was amazing
@@Frawt brother they literally made her to be girlboss because the man cant keep up and split the couple. this is exactly what the colored hairs like to see
sylvanas windrunner has been the main focus of this family since the start of warcraft, now that she is out of the picture currently, Alleria is stepping up to become the focal point of the Windrunner family
So many animation mediums have moved past this type of animation style but man, it's simply beautiful and amazing. Wish more animation studios did stuff like this.
This is incredible,i love it so much,thank you blizzard for making this ! this increases the bond we have with game more when we understand lore like this
Blizzard really needs to make an animated series like Critical Role now has, showcasing everything in the lore. Would also be great for new players who don't know much of the lore.
Animated show would bring so many new players into the game who dont know about the lore and think its just some rpg. WoW has so deep and insane lore it would bring some people who have thougt differently about the game would change their mind
Can they make an animated series already. They’ve got so much lore, characters, and settings already there for them to use and they’ve definitely got the budget.
Please Blizzard, we need an animated series that retells the story of Warcraft, starting from the First War. The fandom will love it!
Then on to Second War to Third War of the Arthas timeline.
Please only do it if the people making the series LOVE the source material. Do the story justice, not an "update" for "modern" audiences. We have seen what happens when they do that.
The day that happens, is the day HE stops protecting them
We need it now more than ever. And the franchise is turning 30.
WE WANT THE FULL STORY, FROM THE BEGINNING
Illidan watching this be like “She is now prepared”
You say he would ask her to follow him into the Abyss, problem is she stared into the Abyss, and didn't flinch.
From the Seat of the Pantheon, the one soilder of Azeroth that understands sacrifice, he too, if he new what his choices would cost him, would make the same choices
Said the same thing lol
That's why he produced this biopic.
what? when did he show up and say that? can you time stamp that
Very cool but man it's gotta be rough on Vereesa being the "normal" sister.

Jeez that void part REALLY makes the audio drama come to life; for those who listened to it. That's insane
5:05 Arator's face being half in the light and half in the shadow is really chef's kiss, blizzard. Bravo
good spotting
Got your IP shill lover. Any last words
yeah, but alleria came in touch with the void afterwards. it would be very confusing if arator suddenly has some void power features.
Blizzard, if there are any smart people left in the company, turn this into an animated series.
After the success of Arcane and Edgerunners it seems ridiculous that warcraft hasn't announced any plans. But bring back Joey Ray Hall for oversight.
@@karlbrown9112 What about Studio Powerhouse, the one behind Castlevania animated series?
It is needed now more than ever.
If there are*
Since you ask so nicely. No. - Blizzard probably
Turalyon weeping over no longer being able to embrace the woman he loves hit me hard
In the shadowlands novel they can touch now. Only when she isn’t in her void form.

Going through each of the characters one faction lore to the next.
100% this is what the game needs,
The animation is amazing
Showing silvermoon in its full glory is just amazing
Alleria dawning her new armor
Elves fighting orcs and trolls
Everything about it is just beautiful to watch.
And Alleria went Legendary Super Void Elf to save Turalyon.
how is that full glory ? it was even more empty than in the game itself
The orcs and trolls look interesting here imo.

And now she lost her drip.

well this was his initial reaction, he toned down his stance later, its more that she thinks he doesn't love her for it.

Already turning out to be the best expansion so far.

It only happens when she's in void form, they are fine. 😁

Wow 🤩, what an amazing stories of Alleria Windrunner👏👏👏
Great job with portraying Alleria! now we just need an animated series!
Alleria misses the part where the elfes came to this land, called holy by the trolls and stole it.
American lore.
And the whole reason the Amani trolls allied with the Old Horde was to reclaim their stolen lands.
So? They're trolls, they shrink heads and worship sticks with faces carved into them. They deserved far worse then what they got.
The new Hammer and Bolter episode looks sick.
So did the 4th Armageddon War with Eldari fighting for Imperium
Love seeing the Old Horde in combat, so well animated. It's been awhile
Amazing animation. Beautifully drawn, especially Alleria - soo mature and majestic.
Fav game + 80s fantasy animations style + epic soundtrack = formula for the best game animated series
Blizzard, please!!
Holy... this is soooo good! Alleria truly is the best Windrunner.
Keeping up with the Windrunners: Season 10
Can they make an animated series already. They’ve got so much lore, characters, and settings already there for them to use and they’ve definitely got the budget.
What have you guys waited for all of this time, Blizzard? WE NEEDED THIS SINCE ALWAYS!
Blizzard, PLEASE make more shorts like this! It's like Heavy Metal meets early 90s anime! Beautiful animation and fantastic storytelling! 10/10!
