Warlords of Draenor was one of the most controversial expansion, they really wanted to ride the hype train of Spartacus/Rome series - gladiator, roman empire themes (which was evolved into the vikings for a few years now), artisticly this expansion was really good, i mean the music was so new, and refreshing with the new middle-eastern, oriental instruments, the colors and the world was really interesting, jungles, cliffs, plains, etc. I would recommend to anybody who leveling an alt, try it because story/quest wise on-par with the legion, if you like the orcish/draenei themes.
Not just that. PvE class design was at its highest and that coming after MoP and predecessing Legion class designs. Raids were awesome. BRF is easily one of the best raids they've put out. Challenges were also good. They also improved Visuals by quite a bit. Improved game's overall performance, and a lot more, it just was half of what they planned for it. They had to cut people off of WoD in favour of developing Legion better, idk if it was for the better or worse.
@@MrUberLol Shadowlands was new lore and was crap from a fundamental point of view. WoD was set on already existing lore that people loved. You would think it would be really hard to fuck it up.
@@dinosdaniel3508 wdym shadowlands lore was based on wotlk lore that almost everyone loved just like with wod. Don’t get me wrong though shadowlands writing was far worse than anything written before in wow
I always wondered what an RPG set exclusively on Draenor would look like. No humans or traditional RPG races. It would just be Orcs, Ogres, bird people, those mummy looking dudes, etc.
I just loved the Draenei zone it was amazing i still get the chills of it after so many years. it was fun while it lasted, Good old Warcraft i'll miss you buddy.

A currency that you had to farm ad nauseum for rep and other things. It wouldn't be bad if that weren't basically all there was to do in WoD for like a year aside from spamming Heroic HFC.
When you don't respect the makGora and just use your elemental shaman BS on a warrior instead of loosing it like u should. Garosh lost to blizzard and the stupidity of the writing team.
Good thing for Thrall he didn't have any witness's other then the player. He would of been in big dudu if other orc's saw him using magic in a Mak'ta'ra (however it's spelled).
Actually, Magic IS Legal in Mak'gora because Mak'gora has no set rules (traditionally it's To The Death, but it doesn't have to be. Any rules for the match are set at the time of the challenge.) Magic is only forbidden in the Movie timeline.
@@patrickmurray3846 um no the rules state that you can only bring in 1 weapon. If you take magic then you cannot have a weapon. Since magic itself is a weapon. The dranor elementals strip Thrall of his connection when he cheated by using magic after he brought Doomhammer with him. Since he was so powerful it took awhile to lose it all. But he can be granted his shaman powers if he makes a deal with the elemental lords on Az.
@@renevil2105 oh and that is what go'dan lost the respect of his people when he used "magic" in a makta'ra. Magic is not permited in this style of combat. It is """"melee"""" only.
His story writing at the time was pretty contrived but in hindsight it really wasn't that bad, just not fully executed. (Still significantly better writing than BfA and Shadowlands )
@@raz5 yeah these first 3 are obtained through a quest chain. 1. Crystallized Horror 2. Crystallized Dread 3. crystallized Terror Then theres this item which is obtained by the end game questline Breath of the Black prince.

look i like these vids but can you stop uploading your old machinimas and just make new ones? UUUH nixxiom made a machinima ...oh its one thats years old
I didn’t really like Metzen’s writing toward the end of his time at Blizz but shadowlands makes it look like Lord of the Rings in comparison
I mean, at least Metzen cared about his work.
comparingit to Lord of the rings dose not say much these days
@@berndbernd3464 compared it to lord of the rings, not rings of power they are completely unrelated
@@brentsteven4944 good save
@@berndbernd3464 He's right, even if Tolkein's estate thinks otherwise.
I always loved the running gag where they just slap Dan whenever they see him
Remember that blue draeni chick went full hitler on the orcs after we left.
Eh they deserved it they went full rowanda on the dranei first they didn't deserve forgiveness
@@danielpritchard510 the orcs were defending their home planet from illegal aliens.

Warlords was awesome. If only Blizzard released the other half of it.
Half? More like the rest two thirds
yeah, if only they did garrison airbattle table...
You can say the same about shadowlands if only they released the other 2/3 that were planned it would be an okay expac COPIUM

And draenei, don't forget the draenei.
damn, if it was like orcs vs draenei vs ethereals in a survival setting.
The ethereals only showed up after the planet became an asteroid field.
2:20 can't help but notice the water in the fountain stopped moving.
after experiencing "Shadow bland" I gotta say: I warlords of draenor is no longer the worst expansion ever
It was fundamentally good but missing ALOT of content
it never was. I loved the expansion.

XD dude dont know if you realise but that name can be traced to special videos
@@skyrimbear7106 lol Apexis
part 2 pls
Hail nixxiom
Green Jesus using magic was dishonorable btw
Why the elements abandoned him in Legion, leaving Doomhammer to the shaman players
*GARROSH DID NOTHING WRONG*
There's no rules against it. It's a fight to the death; you use whatever you have.
I miss Metzen dearly.
this had to be a re upload
Great transmog, really brings out your eyes.
is this his new channel? if so keep it up!
No it is not nixxiom has been around for years... did become really active of late though
I miss Dan…
Hail all
Is this a cut version cuz im missing the part where nixxiom and mooclock went back to afk
It's only a matter of awaiting the next exodus from the game come.. When is Dragonflight's release?

Why are you re-uploading your old content?
Why not
They need remove roles to player full.play Class add summon skils for warlock and do add voice lines like Star Wars old republic
story wise vod was cool but mid endgame content was ek
A.S.S = Alexander Screw Simon :)
I still don't get the Christopher Metzen jokes.
His story writing at the time was pretty contrived but in hindsight it really wasn't that bad, just not fully executed. (Still significantly better writing than BfA and Shadowlands )
gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood
wait isnt tis an old one
5:44 who is that guy?
old warcraft story writer and voice of thrall
dude doesn't know who Chris Metzen is... lmfao
I find it funny that they admit that by the time they reached this point they were still wearing MOP epics rather then MOP Legendaries. Lol
mop had legendaries?
@@raz5 yeah these first 3 are obtained through a quest chain.
1. Crystallized Horror
2. Crystallized Dread
3. crystallized Terror
Then theres this item which is obtained by the end game questline
Breath of the Black prince.

look i like these vids but can you stop uploading your old machinimas and just make new ones? UUUH nixxiom made a machinima ...oh its one thats years old
No u
You feel bored cause your OLD
Forsen
Nice mak'gora thrall, really using melee and nothing else there eh?
That's not a rule to mak'gora, that's just what was agreed upon for the fight between Garrosh and Cairne
And dark Star arent copyright name 🤔
