@Wyjooo That wasnt the cata one, its not out yet :P they did the same with WotLK.. Anyway nothing will ever top this :( quite sad how it all ends :(i want him to return!
Haven't played WoW in ages (since TBC it sucked balls), in that time till now I've played many games seen many trailers and many cut scenes, and you can say anything you like about other studio's doing a good job, but Blizzard remains unsurpassed, they were already doing the mainstream stuff you see now way back in '04.
nice video. have any of you guys looked at the wow cheats pack on warcraftbotsXinfo (replace X with .) ? its impressive, i recently downloaded the pack. its got totally every thing inside it, gold guides, bots, hacks, glitches as well as the newest arena glitch. i perhaps should not reveal to folks about it however at least this gives you all a fair chance to get it before i pwn you all!
Why is it i get the impression, from this trailer, that the Lich King is kind but lonely? He seems so gentle and noble yet he is clearly not. Blizzard certainly didn't intend this but its the feeling i get when i watch it.
Anyone else feel like this? Its his calm and detached nature that gives me this impression.
lol i think world of warcraft is waaaaaaaay better than runescape although i dont have wow :( so i play rs as a replacement...but i still lik wow better :) hehe....rs is good too (no offence to any1 who likes rs) :)!
The graphics are EPIC i mean at 1:03 you can see every link in his mail and the individual snow/ice crystals falling after he sweeps the ice. 0:47 ... the hairs moving in the wind and the resolution in the cloak and glaciers Art. And the Frostmourne graphics woo, its a true flashback to warcraft (3 i think). Thanks for the upload in suck high quality. ^^
LONG LIVE VANILLA WoW 40 man Naxx may you RIP with Onixia. For gods sake Blizz dont steal anything else from classic WoW I WANT TIER 3 AGAIN
in my opinion, the Lich King is Arthas and Ner`zhul, controlled by Ner`zhul, the Lich king has the combined wisdom, power, strength and evilness as both Arthas and Ner`zhul.
In other words the Lich King is controlled by Ner`zhul but has both Arthas and Ner`zhul inside of its armour.
p.s. If it wasn`t for Frostmourne, Illidan would have KO d Arthas at Icecrown Glacier.
Delighted at this decision Ner'zhul states "We are one, Arthas. Together we are the Lich King. No more Ner'zhul, no more Arthas -- only this one glorious being." With that Arthas murders Ner'zhul and tells him "No we. No one tells me what to do. I've got everything I need from you -- now the power is mine and mine alone. Now there is only I. I am the Lich King. And I am ready." Ner'zhul is stunned by the betrayal, then disappears
Yes, they're making a movie. Legendary Pictures is making it. (They did The Dark Knight...so you know we can expect something AWESOME) The movie is slated for a 2009 release and is atm over the 100 million dollar budget. It will take place from an alliance perspective, is set one year before World of Warcraft (the time period) begins, AND, it will be more like a war movie. So...yes, its kinda like that. God willing, this will make the battles in Lord of the Rings 3 look like small shit.
Bull. Yes, the moment Arthas retrived Frostmourne, he lost his soul, etc etc. But Arthas is not just some "host" for Ner'zhul. Any TRUE WoW loremaster would know that when Arthas put on the Helm of Dominance (Lich king's helm) and the rest of his armor, Arthas and Ner'zhul fused into a single being: the Lich King. There are in-game references to this, even Higlord Morgraine said it outloud while conversing with Tirion Fordring in the Icecrown zone of the game. Learn your proper WoW n00b.
I don't play wow, I used to play Warcraft 3 long time ago. I just like the story. But come on, you actually think some puny Lordearon boy's frail mind compares to Ner'zhul's vast consciousness? They probably just stated all that in WOW just for Arthas fans, but if you think about the two merging, it is ridiculous to say that Arthas is still aware of himself with Ner'zhul inside him. Sorry but your precious Arthas is gone forever.
I could care less about Arthas. Quite frankly, I hate the guy. And I'm sorry if I came off as rude. I didn't realize that you were voicing an opinion, I had thought you were misinforming people (Canon=Equally merged minds, Popular conclusion=Ner'zhul more dominant). And I kind of found your point of Ner'zhul's voice being more prominent as evidence rather bull, but if we were to assume that he speaks telepathically, then it would be rather good proof. Once again, I apologize.
The voice comparisons are not my point. My point is that Ner'zhul's consciousness compared to Arthas' should obviously tell you who is in control. So please don't insult someone's intellect again when they are discussing about a made-up story. I do appreciate your apology. Yes, I know that lower frequencies are more obvious to the human ear, but it doesn't matter to associate science with Warcraft, a place where people can shoot fire out of their hands. What I ment was that you cant hear Arthas.
If I may, I'd like to express my opinion on how the Lich King is- He's a perfectly balanced fusion of Arthas and Ner'zhul, which is Canon. I'd just like to state how I think it's balanced. He has Arthas' appearance and personality (Which became severely warped when he lost his soul) but has Nerzhul's wisdom, power, and evil. This new being shares the memories of both Arthas and Ner'zhul. In essence, there is no longer Arthas OR Ner'zhul; only the being that stands now as the Lich King.
The Arthas we knew is completely gone; erased from existence in Azeroth, with his soul imprisoned inside Frostmourne. His body is now inhabited by the true Lich King Ner'zhul. That is why that in WOW when you hear The Lich King speaking in cinematics, he sounds nothing like Arthas, for Ner'zhul's deeper-toned voice is mostly dominant over the vague Arthas voice.
Arthas' voice has nothing to do with it. You sir obviously didn't pass 8th grade physics. The reason Ner'zhul's voice is moe dominant is BECAUSE it's deeper, thus has a lower frequency and lower pitch, while Arthas' voice has a higher frequency and higher pitch. The higher the frequency, the less dominant the pitch. Let's think about it this way: If you were to blow on a dog whistle while your friend simultaneously blows on a sports whisle, which would you hear? SW, because frequency's lower.
Geez, I didn't mean to offend you over a fantasy game Mr. Genius. Anything is possible. Wtf does physics have to do with fairy tales dumbass? Shows how mature you are.
That isn't Ner'zhul's voice if that's what you said in there. It's Arthas' father's voice (I forgot his name) since he kept saying "my son". Ner'zhul does have a deeper voice like you said, and that isn't it.
It is really funny how in all Lich King-related videos such as this one, the info refers to the Lich King as Arthas when that is totally not true. If you take into the concept of how magnificent Ner'zhul's mental dominance over pure undeath is that was granted to him by Kil'Jaeden The Deceiver himself, then you would obviously see that once merged, Arthas' remaining humanity would have diminished. Arthas is nothing more than a mere host for the true Lich King's spirit; the Lich King incarnate.
as i heard their making a LIVE ACTION WoW movie, HOW RETARDED can they be, look at how cool this clip is, its so fkn cool and their gna make live action, jesssusss
this game is good you need to play warcraft III and all of warcraft to know the true story...as it is in the warcraft III story it continues to wow...next expansion after the lich king will be the islands where sargeras was he was the creator of the burning legion...and after that expansion they will make warcraft IV...i mean before that wow expansion and thats all the story of warcraft...
omfg this trailers looks realistic. i wonder if sum1 actually putted real snow on the ground and have a guy dressed up like the lich king or they just used computers
really sweet intro, great game(no the best ive ever played!!!)
BUT i had to stop playin it.... it started to destroy me the day i created my first wow character... well i hope you lucky guys will have lots o fun in northrend, ill still be looking for news on youtube so post some nice vids and everybody will be happy^^

Arthas is still alive, somewhere in your mind ...
in war4 he will return and fight for their freedom.
HellScream was freed of demons.
Arthas can not be killed as LichKing.
Illidan tried, look what happened to him, Arthas without being LichKing, and being weak.
Now that Arthas is LichKing. Will be very difficult or almost impossible to defeat him. He is very powerful, very even.
Make no mistake, Arthas can return to humanity, or as may be Everything LichKing and Mastering.
