something to note riot when making these has a process. it goes theme then song then cinematic. its why they blend so well cause they arent trying to mesh thing that werent made for each other. its also why we didnt get one in 2023 cause they couldnt finish what they had and it wasnt up to their standards (their words). its also why arcane took so long. they were not going to release it untill they were happy and im glad theres a company that will scrap or push back something if it isnt up to their quality.
Your genuine awe is so amazing to see as someone who plays this game and loves to see others appreciate this universe.
Context: This cinematic is described as the "Past, Present, and Possible Futures" and if you noticed between each transition, there is very small image of Kindred as she comes to claim each soul's life, in the fire when Morgana burns Aatrox and her eyes in the faint woods as Yasuo accepts his death with the arrow being shot at him
The first two characters you see (the angels) are Morgana (Purple Wings), and Kayle (White Wings) the twin Aspects of Justice. They're also sisters wielding two halves of their mother's blade (their mother was the previous Aspect of Justice). That scene takes place in the past of what we know of the lore right now, during a siege on a kingdom called Demacia, which happened in ancient times.
To be an Aspect is kind of like being an avatar for a god. The person they're fighting is Aatrox, who, at one point, was also kind of an avatar for godly powers, but was corrupted by blood magic, and effectively "cursed" to never die. He now seeks the destruction of all existence in the hopes that he could finally rest. The last bit of the scene seems to be meant to show the differences in Kayle and Morgana's personalities. Morgana will sink to any low she needs to in order to do what is right, whereas Kayle sees herself above it all, looking at her position as an Aspect as far more important than it possibly is. Since this is the past, this is technically before Kayle and Morganna split and go separate ways on deciding how to deal Justice. But you can definitely tell Kayle is now mad at Morganna for using magic and two, throwing down there's mother sword.
The second scene is of the future, in a small village in a land called Ionia. The old samurai is a character by the name of Yasuo, a master of a powerful wind technique. He's had a life of disgrace, and hardship, failing to save his master who taught him the wind technique, being blamed for his death, and then having to kill his own brother who hunted him down. Clearly, when he grows old, he finds a place in the small village, and lives there in peace until it's attacked, prompting him to take up a sword in defense of the people. The scene is pretty self-explanatory, but it's a very strong moment for League of Legends fans for sure.
The final scene is my favorite. The whole video starts with the line "Tomorrow is a hope. Never a promise." This line is spoken by Lamb, one half of the character known as The Kindred. The Kindred serve as the Grim Reaper of the world of League of Legends. The story goes that Death was so lonely that it split itself in two, so it would "always have a friend". One half is the Lamb, and the other half is the Wolf. Lamb represents the peace in acceptance of death, wielding a bow to deliver a swift end, and Wolf represents the violence of rejecting and running from death, being literally a beast that mauls anything that tries to escape. You only see them when they've decided your time has come.
The character we zoom in on at the end is Tryndamere, a barbarian king of the Freljord (Frel-yord). At the very beginning, he seems to be in a battle for his life against surrounding forces. When we reach the end, his vision shifts to a darker scene, and the image of the Kindred come into his view. Wolf is on the offensive, because Tryndamere is trying to fight for his life. Lamb tries to deliver shots that will end him quickly, but it seems Lamb is surprised to see that Tryndamere has a power that lets him avoid death for a short time (which is what the red in his eyes means) (If I am correct based off lore, he is infused with blood magic which technically allows him to become immortal when on the brink of death). It catches them off guard and lets Tryndamere almost get a blow in. While Wolf attempts to maul him, Lamb tries to go for one final strike, when Ashe, the frost archer, and wife of Tryndamere, arrives and kills two of the men that were attacking him. The Kindred and their darkness fade away, indicating that Ashe's arrival has saved Tryndamere from the Kindred's hunt, and the death he was destined for. As more forces move in against them, Ashe fires a hawk shot into the air to signal their position and call for reinforcements.
A bit of context. Lamb wasnt taking pot shots. She was testing if he truly accept death. Every time, however, its a resounding no.
@@khoinguyen5004 I think her arrows in this context represent Tryn's body trying to naturally fail, since Lamb's death representation is about gentleness. But of course, he's supernaturally angry and incapable of dying ;)
@@oinkleberry possibly. Necrit did talk about this
The graphics aren't in -game graphics and will probably never be since LoL is an E-Sports title and needs to run on simpler setups to keep their huge player base. But they use such epic cinematics every year and some other recent ones i'm sure you will like are "The Call" or "Awaken".
This video itself is a huge love letter to the lore loving side of the community. Only a part of the LoL community cares about lore but it's really fleshed out and there's way more going on in the video than you would realize as someone not knowing the lore.
My personal favorite part is the last one, it's so cool what's happening. The cinematic starts with that warrior Tryndamere fighting in a near death state collapsing and seeing a faint figure before closing his eyes and the last scene is whats happening after that. The wolf and the lamb is another character from the game called Kindred. They are one character and represent something like the grim reaper in the LoL universe and came to claim Tryndamere's soul. The lamb represents a gentle, swift death represented by the light arrows and the wolf takes the ones fighting death and trying to defy it. Tryndamere has an ability to become immortal for some seconds and thats what the last scene shows. Kindred came to claim his soul but Tryndamere refuses and fights against that with his ability. For Kindred it was never a fight, just a given that they are here to get his soul. The whole scene also wasn't taking place in the real world. In the real world, Ashe (the women who comes running) saves Tryndamere with her arrows from the last enemies and therefore he hasn't to die anymore and that's why Kindred disappears.
If you're interested in such stuff, there's someone called necrit on youtube and he has a video called "The Lore of "Still Here" Cinematic Explained" which goes into a lot of details.
And fun fact to end this wall of text: The women saving Tryndamere is called Ashe and is his wife in the lore. But whats even better, some early characters of the game are named after the gamer tags of employees of the developer and Tryndamere is such a character. And the wife of the employee is called - Ashe! So that in game couple actually exists in real life :)
The fight with Trybda and Kindred is also my favourite part
Altough my take on the last fight was that when trynda is about to rage he willingly enters a fight with death, i think so because hes not surprised at all to see them (which could also be atrributed to the fact that the freljord might be very knowledgable about the true form of death considering that they have a lot of guys chilling with spirits, ie udyr or other shamans).
You can also see 6 people standing around Trynda in the first shot and only 2 when ashe shoots her arrows, which IMO means that the fight took place on another plane and in real life, his mind is fighting kindred while his body fights kindred and whatever tries to kill him. (the fight against kindred is also very much physical considering the damage the shoulder pad took, it looks like teeth or claws made the damage which would be weird if he only fought humans)
the League of Legends rabbit hole lets go :D
Honestly one of the most fun reactions ive seen mate, you reacted the same way i did when i first saw Riot Games cinematics, just awe lol
Its not just the realism, but the music, that is so fitting to what you are seeing, forms a whole ass new experience and Riot fucking nails that
Awesome reaction, clearly you love what you saw, heard and felt! So you want to see it multiple times right? I really really really suggest knowing a little bit about the characters, it hits even deeper when you know whats going on, unlike Arcane which its actually better going in blind, this video is a love letter to the fan base of the game specifically to the Lore community.
If you want to know in detail about the lore look for Necrit´s videos, he is the Lore guy for League, here just to keep it short, the first scene is the Barbarian king Tryndamere, then it cuts to the twin angel scene which happens about a 1000 years in the past in a different location about a ancient battle, followed by the scene about the samurai called Yasuo, but notably this takes about 30 to 40 years in the future of the current time in the lore and the significance in the tittle of the song hits even more, finally we go back to Tryndamere and it is the most bad ass scene of all in my opinion, the surroundings looks different from the first because Trynda has actually entered the death realm and he is confronted by Kindred possibly the most powerful spirit in Runeterra (This the name of the world) and he is one of the embodiment's of death it self in this universe which is represented by the Lamb and the Wolf (think of him as the grim reaper) so Tryndamere is at the verge of dying and he his actually fighting death it self it is just Epicness unfolding before your eyes, in the end he is saved by his wife Ash the woman with the Ice bow.
There are tons of details I skimmed over but hopefully this gives you I little bit more insight so you can love the characters even more and fall in love with the world that Riot games have created.
I still bawl everytime the video (or music only) hits the part where Ashes arrow hit the 2 enemies behind Trynda~
I pulled up the video before watching any reactions, and even then, it brought tears to my eyes. The whole message of "I'm still here," along with the theme of pushing through adversity is very significant to me. I've been through a lot over the last few years. Over the last decade, honestly (though, it was one of those 'if you put a lobster in a pot of cold water and raise the temperature, they won't notice until it is too late' kind of decades). But I've survived it and I'm moving on from all of that, and in the last year, as I've been focusing on rebuilding myself, this whole message of "I may be beaten down and tired, but I am still here despite all of that" is very much frontmost in my brain.
But, apparently, this one is a fully canon cinematic from League, and it is filled to the brim with lore deep cuts. I actually watched a video from Necrit going over the lore in it. I knew... next to none of the lore going into this, but one thing is that the character with the round glowing eyes and the wolf are, fundamentally, this world's embodiment of death, and they show up in each of the three scenes. In the one with the 'valkyries,' as you called them, it doesn't step in because that great demon isn't able to die. In the middle story, you see the wolf as the arrows are flying up to come down on the samurai character (who is the guy with the wind powers, just decades later than the in-game present), and the one that comes straight for him is the same kind of glowing arrow that we see the death archer firing in the last scene, implying that this is his death years later. Most interestingly, the scene implies that he's at a point in life where he has forsaken killing - none of the bandits that he fights are killed. Even the leader, who he blasts with the wind... it seems as though he is knocking him away from the rain of arrows. And the last scene is a character... having a kind of near-death experience, with some of the implications being that he isn't actually fighting death, but rather the warriors who were surrounding him in the first place. Phenomenal storytelling all around!
You should see the details on pantheon and talia too from the call!
Like honestly pantheon in the call cinematic and tryndamere here just look like two real guys for me!
Especially the shots of their eyes!
Great reaction as always! Yous should really watch the lore video from necrit about this video, it is crazy how much thought they put in to it and I'm sure you would love the storylines! Since they are starting to build a giant universe with consistent story I'm sure there will be a lot to react to in the next years and to actually know about the lore they are building makes it all so much better.
If you liked this they've released other start-of-the-season cinematics. For example, you could check out "The Call"
If you wanna know everything that happened i would recommend watching the video of the youtuber 'necrit'. He is the lorehead of this game and he can explain everything with his video on this. I would recommend watching it and maybe making a video from it?
lol you never reacted to these league of legends cinematics? damn brother, do it now they are awesome!!
but sadly game isn't for everybody, and don't look like cinematics but it's like drugs tho, you can't stop playing it even if you hate it.
nice reaction ! The song and the video are written for each other - it is a creative process and that's why it is so good. And the cinematography is absolutely perfect (editing/camera angles/shots)!
Well, the graphics are not that nice ingame but on the other hand- who would be able to play such a game - this needs an insane PC if this would be a whole game - not everyone can afford that. And League is a free to play game. A game with such graphics would not be free to play for sure!
At the moment many people hope the graphics will be as good for the upcoming MMO Riot announced but that is very unlikely. It will be more the WOW graphics in my opinion- maybe a little better because they can start on a newer engine.
But what's more likely - and the fandom is begging for this - is a movie with this insane quality. That would be so awesome !
Also - the berserker guy at the end and the ice bow lady who rescues him are husband and wife - absolutely epice wife moment ! I love it.
check out necrit's vid re: the lore behind this.. i don't play LoL and it was still verrry cool.. thumbs up
If you liked this one, you should definitely check out the League of Legends kpop band K/DA and their songs Popstars, More, Villain, etc. Those music videos are animated as well and are very popular! Great reaction btw!
This is a story cinematic, not in-game unfortunately. And funnily enough, League is a player vs. player arena game with no singleplayer campaigns of any kind so they have to deliver all of their lore through short-story articles, in-game voice lines, and cinematic trailers like these. So these trailers are always such a treat because they actually involve/imply storyline stuff we, as league fans, haven't yet seen adapted.
Oh please react to Warld of Warcraft cinematics! Like Battle for Azeroth is absolutely gorgeous one!
If this think this cinematic is realistic, you should watch - World of Warcraft: The War Within cinematic. It takes it to the next level.
это лысый тайлор 2.0 ? :D
Please react Annie origins league of legends
sadly league does not look as stunning in game, but the always deliver with cinematics except that one time
the better the game cinematic looks the worser the game looks, League of Legends and World of Warcraft are the prime examples
currently no game can look like this. the processing power to run a game that looked this good isnt around now. a computer that tried to run a game looking this good would melt in minutes. the difference from a cinematic and a game is a cinematic is set but for a game it has to factor in every little detail at that quality. its why cut scenes can look so much better than the game.
@@zerodawn09 but cutscenes don't look much better then game because they are in game in engine, games stoped having cinematic cutscenes more then 20years ago, also Unreal5 is a thing so environment and monsters can look in game just as good as they do in cinematic, the problem is human skin
@@Ciffer-1998 lol so diablo 4 cutscenes were in game engine? how about the new warhammer game? and just now league of legends just to name a few. some use the in game engines for their cut scenes but none look this good cause as i stated before the processing power to do that detail as a game isnt there yet.
@@zerodawn09 didnt play it but, as far as i saw yes they are in engine, unless you mean that one when when Lilith fights Enarius that one is a cinematic
the realism is actually not as good as 2 years ago, the call, is the name.
lmao a real life gnome, that's so adorable.
Its a Cinematic, it has nothing to do with the game visually, only the lore and the Characters are relevant, the grafic isnt.
and thats on purpose, if riot games would use that graphic, they would lose 50% of the playerbase because they have shitty pcs
@@mr.leanflakes-highlights1556 50% is very optimistic , more like 80% , but i m curious what the MMO will be like
Im so excited for it, gonna be so fcking good@@azrael7582
Well, welcome to LoL where community adores everything around the game while utterly hating the game itself and both for reasons=)
