Take what you need from the Blade but remember that the entitiy within Is Not your Ally" Something Like that was in the flavor Text...but..i'll don't believe that bullshit she obviously misunderstood and i can fix her *cough* *cought*
I was just about to comment this. And it was in the same circumstances. When Modgud's forces started losing, Xal straight up left her... Modgud, in Fugue state kept repeating "She Promised, She promised" before she was struck down.
DF aspired to please all the Scaly fetish people and this expansion aims to please the foot fetish people.. Yeh this is a blizzard "lets steal some breastmilk from the fridge" game alright.
Not really. It was pretty bland monologue to me. Also it wasn't a surprise that Ansurek is gonna die, she becomes a generic raid boss right after she appears in lore, killing her mother.
Maybe this is a hot take, but I do think the cinematic being a bit bland/filler is perfect for Ansurek's arc: she was given power, enablement and limelight. Only to fall short, used as an obstacle/vanguard for us to overcome, to realise she was just a disposed Pawn on Xal'atath's Chess board, and having a meaningless end when her forces failed. It's lackluster for us as watchers, yet thematically perfect for the character.
You thought you where Daddy D, but you where not. He had the ambition and he did it himself, so when it all came down he still had some strings to pull out. Ansurek trusted Xal completely and fully committed, and now she is on the floor and Xal floats off to find some other ambitious fool.
The simpleness was the point. This was yhe most clear exposition of "you where just a pawn" we've ever had. It's refreshing compared to the 5d plot of shadowlands
you think? 🤣🤣🤣 🤣 ofc they are. also any ad you see today with bare feet is INTENTIONAL. there are so many ads with feet nowadays, it is a growing fetish. nobody randomly does things when it involves spending or grabbing money.
GO read up on the history of the Black Blade (SHould be available via WOWhead or something). We Shadow mains arent surprised AT ALL. This is exactly how Xal has always worked, and undoubtedly what pissed off certain entities enough to shove her in that dagger.
Finally. I kept going through the feet comments looking for this. Everyone is saying the cutscene meant nothing, but it isn't true. It gives us hints about Xal'atath. That maybe she isn't doing the things she is because she is evil, but because she wants to survive.
I love her feet but yeah I was looking for this comment. I had the same thoughts. It might be early copium but considering she is slated to be an important character in all three expansions, it would not be improbable that she will play a role similar to Illidan or Azshara (against N'zoth). Whatever happens in the future I have to say that right now I'm actually interested in the story for the first time in many years.

@@CrystalPrelude whoa another girlboss that is not evil but misunderstood and just trying to survive in evil patriarchal society? How new and refreshing storytelling from modern Blizzard, bravo!
How does it have anything to do with a patriarchy? Are you playing the same game? She is a void entity. She might not even have a gender. Do you comprehend the story up until now? How did you happen in on this cinematic knowing so little? Are you even playing the game right now?
I like how everyone is assuming that there is a guy with a foot fetish at Blizzard, when the cutscene director, (who is a woman, and is responsible for directing all those cutscenes) is on Twitter making feet and toes puns when talking about the cutscenes .
Honestly expecting her to be similar to Sargeras in that we'll never fight her directly. She doesn't even want us dead. To her we're a weapon that she's sharpening and aiming... We're just not completely sure what at yet.
These feet shots are one to many to be just coincidence. Somebody on the cinematics team worships those things and they are making it -everybody- elses problem... I'm not complaining though ;)
I feel like the feet thing shows her floating and seperates her from normal elves for the fans who are new. It underscores her otger worldly qualities. Its not JUST for the simps
-insert witty Quentin Tarantino joke- now that that’s outta the way…I do find it interesting that when Xala’tath’s pawn is on the verge of death, she watches and let’s it happen. But when azshara was dead, N’Zoth took it upon himself to resurrect her almost immediately. Which puts the whole “only the strong survive” void ethos into question…
Well, Azshara is something else and if she helped N'zoth even after his liberation, event would have turned differently. Azshara is really strong and cunning. And N'Zoth need her or at least wanted her a his side. Because of that, he didn't wanted her to die. So yes the strong survive, either by their own, or because they are valuable and we still want them at our side alive. Ansurek on the other hand... Her value was, not enough. It's incomparable.
More like debuffs. She just had a whole a$$ convo squirming in place. Mythic raiders don't die from fall damage if they are good enough to have parachute from engineering
Every cutscene I watch, every word she says, just makes me think more and more that Xal is from K'aresh. Either its Speaker, or a piece of its World Soul.
USE YOUR BRAIN> Karesh wasnt destroyed that long ago, relatively speaking, or Locus Walker wouldnt be talking about it as if it were within a standard lifetime. Xal was in that dagger for millenia.
@@ZakhadWOW Where are you getting your information from? K'aresh was destroyed at least a thousand years before BC, as told in the quests to kill K'aresh's former leader, Nexus-King Salhadaar in Netherstorm.
Ye... another villain with great plans, that left one of his pawn behind and noone can really heal or safe her like that drow-archer in Shadowlands... what was her name BTW?
@@azahel542 its just Xal'atath being cool and showing off the fact that the Nerubians weren't at all related to what she actually is doing. Not really sure what you expected lmao, not every cutscene is going to have another city exploding
So they show feet for like 2 seconds, big deal. However the show a lot of eyes and ears so definitely they’re catering to the eye and ear fetish community😱…….. come on gimme a break😑
@@Doomfoolable it doesn't have to be another city exploding, but as you just said, it's just Xal saying a bunch of inconsequential things, therefore, it's just a lot of nothing.
Question, who is Xalatath's voice actor? That voice sound so familiar but for the life of me I can't place where I have heard it and I feel like I should REALLY know this voice actor when I hear them. (Edit and added) I swear she sounds like Carmen Sandiego....
Idk man , this is kind of sad. Queen Ansurek is just laying there with like 4 broken legs, crushed lungs, can't breath, slowly slipping into death. I felt kind of bad for her ngl
@@Eloryan nah fam she deserved that and shes not even a sympathetic villain lmao she literally tried to murder her own mother in some crazy grab at power because she felt like her mother was to weak to lead. She got what was coming to her and she that Xal was her ally but really she was just Xal's pawn not even a main piece of the chess game
I'm gonna say something controversial. The foot thing is distracting to me. Rant over. Now to my normally scheduled comment: She betrayed her mom. Yet she's surprised when she's betrayed herself by her spymaster and generals? That's Czar level hubris.

Technically those are not Xal's feet but Inanis, the corpse of the elf she is possessing.
so not only is blizz catering to the feet fetish in their game but also the necrophile fetish... huh neat 🐱
Dont tell the takodachi
Inanis has some fine feet then
@@Ghostly_One1 Wah
I love how they double down on the feet. True cinematic experience
I guess we were all chilling above watching this dialogue?
we were captivated by the feet, what can you do
Ansurek summoned a magical chest with loot before she fell, so she can die with Xal in peace
Not really. It was pretty bland monologue to me. Also it wasn't a surprise that Ansurek is gonna die, she becomes a generic raid boss right after she appears in lore, killing her mother.
Severely disappointed there is no paladin in a bubble falling from the sky during Xal's speech trying to loot the boss.
There was a time skip
Maybe this is a hot take, but I do think the cinematic being a bit bland/filler is perfect for Ansurek's arc: she was given power, enablement and limelight.

Yes. To show how low Spider queen is compared to Xal

If we are taking into account BFA, she walked while making the deal with N'Zoth.

Who is she?
How do you know that "she" identifies as a woman and not a middle aged male foot fetishist?

„massive Spoilers“.
Killed the Endboss - endboss dies.
„Unexpected“
„Massive“
Actually it’s not even a spoiler..
Considering wows old style of shelving bosses after a raid, yeah kinda more interesting for the raid boss to die
Just in case you didn't notice - feet
