  • Even 9 months later, this video still makes me feel the same way the first time I saw it. I got to say that it is probably because your superb music choice and camera angles.

    If you get into the next expansion's beta, I truly hope you make exploration videos.

  • I think you and your video are the sole reason Cata was a let down for me. I get goosebumps from watching this still and not one when I play. How sad is that?

  • FOR THE FORSAKEN!!

  • Anyone know where I can find Audiomachine: Battle of the Kings? It isn't on Itunes and I did not see it on beemp3 either.

  • i think i just had a eargasm.

    ty <3

  • Even after Cataclysm has been out for months, I came back and watched this again. So awesome!

  • Awesome

  • Voluptuous is a guy. That's all I have to say.

  • Anyone else think that Gilneas looks alot like the Harry Potter theme land in Universal Orlando? Or is it just me?

    The place looks wizardy to me lol.

  • POOR MURLOCKS :(

  • This video alone makes me want to play again.

  • love your videos, your epic soundtracks are my favorite music with WoW Soundtracks! you also really got some nice things in your video ;)

  • what program you use to burn the game?

  • Four words: Muffins -- You #$%^&*( rule! That is all :D

  • Sup Vao : )

  • hey, i cant stop watching this.... video is just awesome.

    love the way you edited eveything and all!

    and euh, really nice music!!

    im playing the beta and when i come in the areas you filmed and putted in your movies, i always put on some 2 steps from hell music on,,, epic experience

    thanks!

  • just amazing <3 THANK YOU MUFFINS!

  • Great videos! Love it. Make some more :D

  • wow... the best vid I've ever seen, the music is fantastic <3 the songs, but my favourite is the first and the 2nd .. love it

  • xazera, will you give out cataclysm videos when it's out? :) Would love it so much, and you are so awesome on making videos :)))))))) Good job on this video!

  • What Two Steps from Hell album is the track Ocean Princess from?

  • 1:26 fantastic view!!

  • 10:00 cute^^

  • Those soundtracks would be very nice as ingame music as well. They are more than fitting. Great choice and amazing video. Thanks!

  • very impressive....nicely done

  • I love your videos and the format you chose. It allows a glimpse at everything, including instances, without giving away too much.

    The soundtrack is wonderful and definitely works fantastic with the visuals. I actually got goosebumps and teary eyes in parts. Great work!

  • @SuicidalOptimist Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. I feel like I still do give a good amount away, but at least it's not a definitive step by step "how to beat this instance and oh by the way, here's a list of boss abilities and what you should do" video that are all over the internet.

  • i rly love yor way of editing movies,i actual was rly rly relaxed when i watched;) thx a lot ;)+++++++++++++++

  • @nimloths Relaxing sounds good!

  • wow cataclism looks pretty awesome joining that they did quite good work on landscape....and the efects and music ofc

  • /Agree with Spankinmike, your videos are fantastic!! You capture the epicness of it so well!

    Pay no mind to the trolls, they do nothing with their lives, so they try and scratch what you did with yours :)

  • If they dont change Therazane's model she'll be a sad excuse of an Elemental Lord imho.

    Love your Videos, especially the newest one! x3

  • Give us a track listing muffin good vids as always

  • @C0mm0nS3ns3 The track listing for this second movie is in the description o-o

  • GJ like that

  • Was loooking forward to your Cataclysm presentations as i liked the WotLK ones a lot. Great job!

  • 13:01 most awesome thing I've seen in WoW yet.

  • Integrity you every minute tofinish the order ,the professional and skilled gamers will work ? you every minute tofinish the order.

  • Great video and preview of Cataclysm. Really awesome job guys, thanks.

  • 2:40 I came.

  • Really nice video . part 1 and part 2 are really good quality both!

  • @TheShinychi Lol, great actors? There were none.

  • Only 15 marks this is a bad video vs 517

    those 15 are just lonely... poor things :P

  • I really enjoyed this. The music, timing and fades were all really appropriate and I found the entire thing a great watch. Keep up the good work please, because I look forward to any future videos you may have!

  • This is wonderful! Thank you for taking the time to show us. It's great to get a sneek peek at the upcoming expansion. The people complaining are out of work Final Slut Pro Editors. Maybe if they had any real talent and busy they wouldn't be so bashing people. They are just jealous trust me. You do awesome work and are a REAL talent. If you are looking for a job in Broadcast News drop me a line.

  • i second that very nice video ty for taking time to show us i for one am looking forward to cata <3

  • WOW nice video and the soundtrack is awesome :D

  • This video rocks, the music is awesome great selection went well with how you crafted the videos

  • That was great! Thank you!

    I'm looking forward to cataclysm

  • Stop hating. I really love the music and the video is pretty nice as well.

    A very smart person once said.

    Haters are gonna hate.

    People whine about the stupidest crap these days. Enjoy it and stop whining and honestly this music is bloody amazing.

    The graphics have been updated to those who still whine and if you still whine go play a @#$#@ ps3 or X Box 360. Sheesh.

    Again great music, I'm a sucker for this type of music

    :D

  • Wow. People are really being dicks about this. This guy took time out of his beta testing to make these videos and all you people do is try and troll him? Nice. I'll be one of the minority and say thanks for making the videos. Cataclysm looks pretty sweet.

  • @Spankinmike Actually the people complaining and trying to troll me are the minority. Glad you enjoyed it. I don't plan on changing my format or style anytime soon since these are simply just exploration movies and not trailers/promos or some fancy bullshit with a thousand effects/filters or cuts.

  • Epic.!!!!!!

  • Thank you for a staggeringly beautiful video. Coming across the changed areas in game is nice but seeing them presented so well in a video like this is so much better. The musical accoumpaniment is spot on, thank you.

  • i dont care wth people are talking about.. EVERYTHING WAS AWSOME>>> MUSIC AWSOME...when you roll with Hans Zimmer his music is amazing

  • Ugh. This video has too many fucking artifacts, it's not even fun to watch. :(

  • @Izaach Try 720p. Or just directly download the movie off filefront.

  • Sorry, but all the fade-outs and white flashes are killing my eyes. Why did you have to do it like that?

  • @egimenez Because the footage is synchronized/matching the music. If you have any other suggestions as to present the footage I'm all ears. Please don't say something retarded like "well you should just leave it unedited and do 1-2 minute long shots with no transitions and minimal editing".

    That's been done and done a hundred million times over and it's fucking lame.

  • @xazera Synchonization involves time, not effects. You can use any transition style you want, apart from fade-outs and flashes. If your footage is too short for some measure of music, then you need more footage (or you can slow down what you have, or repeat, freeze, whatever). The way you made it is good for something shorter or when used sparingly. Otherwise it gets very tiring.

    I hope this doesn't sound retarded to you.

  • @egimenez

    Abruptly cutting from one shot to another doesn't really flow well with the music. For me, everything revolves around the music. At least that's what I was doing with these exploration movies. I will not repeat, freeze, slow down any footage for any reason, I find it pointless and tasteless I do find that I use a lot of the same flashes, fade ins and outs. I tried cutting down on them but found that anything else I did (especially with no narration) looked awkward and odd.

  • @egimenez You know the songs are played in full in this video right?  I mean you just said "if your footage is too short for some measure of music, then you need more footage". Go look some of those songs up. He played the entire song

  • @egimenez

    She does this shit with all her vids, 5 seconds, FLASH OUT, 5 SECONDS, FLASH OUT.

  • @Fryzel Same guy who still can't find anything worth saying. Didn't I own the shit out of you about a week and a half ago? AND YOU'RE STILL HERE?

  • Amazing video amazing music! Synchronizing is perfect!

  • EPIC!!!

  • Silly question, but did they DRASTICALLY boost the max camera distance? Or did you do /console horizonfarclip (over 5000) or something? Because currently there is no freaking way I can see ALL of Booty Bay from such a distance even with my settings maxed.

  • @Xuvial Flying Mounts

  • @Zextify Please, don't be stupid and don't take me for an idiot. You know exactly what I'm asking.

  • @Xuvial I just flew really high. You can fly everywhere now

  • I know this sounds really stupid but seeing all the changes to Azeroth and all the locations I've been to change almost brings a tear to my eye. when Cataclysm comes out it will be like a coming back home from a long trip in Northrend only to see things have changed from both the good and the bad.

  • Amazing sounds loved very much , need more sounds like those :)

  • Blizzard outdid themselves on deepholme. it's absolutely gorgeous!

  • Amazingly epic.

  • Seeing Badlands made my jaw drop...

  • I loved this video. The music fit perfectly :) and it seems that the Forsaken have made great strides in their territory and archetecture which is pretty cool in my opinion cuz I always hated how their buildings were just destroyed and old versions of human buildings...

  • Well done xazera! Ive had this on repeat a few times now because of such deep music :-) May I ask what software you used to record and edit this? GL in the future!

  • @xazera When in your video it's saying EPL it's in WPL. I don't know if it's a mistake i just noticed it and wanted to tell you.

  • what name of this song?

  • Having watched this a couple of times the music really is something to behold with this kind of imagery it gets under the skin and drags you under. I would love to see Blizzard go to some of these very talented musicians or groups and let them do some music for an expansion I mean they have the money to ask and I am sure none of them who are featured on this selection would turn down a chance of this magnitude. Awesome to listen to and got my imagination for WoW awake again!

  • 11:17 They destroyed the park in Stormwind?! Dammit. No more druid trainers.

  • I dont get why ppl complain about the graphics... if blizz made it better there would be less ppl that could play the game on their computers, Blizz is not dumb, they know how to keep their players. And btw, real wow gamers gets used to this kind of graphics, so whining about it doesnt really matter cuz we dont care

  • Jesus christ the music in this is absolutely amazing! Best I've heard in awhile! Wonder if we can purchase it somewhere? Is it all music off cataclysm?

  • @pv2barrows None of the music is actually by Blizzard or part of the soundtrack for Cataclysm.

  • awesome awesome awesome awesome AWESOME video!

    Extremely well done! Thank you for this sneak peak!

  • Really good video!

    Massive Impact: Call for Heroes INSANE

  • Well done. Amazing really, you done this great. Music is 5 star as well.

    Didn't play for like four months, got bored since my guild done everything in wotlk and had a lot stuff to do this summer, but i will play Cataclysm :)

  • what recording soft where do u use?!plz reply!

  • @pinatamasters Fraps

  • awesome video! very well done sir :)

  • Holy chit I cant wait till it comes out

  • Thanks for epic video, and epic music list!!

    Keep owning man!

  • Excellent, orchestra style music similar to Oh furtuna by Carl Orff really sets off an epic feel to landscape/exploration videos, i appreciate the work you did to capture all of this, and even more so to captivate us in a way only well done cinema quality can. You should do blizzard's advertising :{O

  • @drpeppa2357 Thanks, I was actually looking into applying to Blizzard. I just don't know how they could ever utilize my beta exploration movies with their marketing campaigns or advertising. Realistically I have some doubts if any of what I do will really catch their eye. If anyone have any suggestions on how I can apply to Blizzard I'm all ears! Until then, I'll keep making movies at my own leisure/free time.

  • Hey Xazera do you know where i could download or buy some of the songs you listed? I got all but last 3. Any website or download link would be greatly appreciated. And very good video by the way :D

  • IF and when Blizzard ever actually gets around to making a WoW movie I hope they use piece from "Two Steps From Hell" for their music. I dont know about anyone else but the songs seem to "fit" the WoW feel.

  • thanks for putting this together. also enjoyed your kalimdor ones, so thanks for those, too :)

    any chance on an eastern kingdoms part 2 with hinterlands, arathi highlands, burning steppes, searing gorge, swamp of sorrows, twilight highlands, eversong forest/ghostlands (or did they even change?)?

    regardless, great job and thanks very much :) got me massively excited for cataclysm; blizzard should hire you ;p

  • @pocketsofposy

    Swamp of Sorrows, Arathi, Burning Steppes, Searing Gorge, Hinterlands= minimal to almost no changes. Not worth putting in (I tried to find changes, believe me). Twilight Highlands and Uldum will be showcased in the 3rd and hopefully final Cataclysm movie.

  • @Xavieric311

    Yet here you are, watching my video in regards to an upcoming expansion for WORLD OF WARCRAFT. Ironic isn't it?

  • @xazera Easy there killer. I just wanted to see if WoW has made any headway (which it hasn't) on content/graphics/music to see if it's worth putting up with 12 year old a-holes again (which it isn't). :D Have fun!

  • @Xavieric311 Whatever floats your boat. Even if that includes making videos of you playing Final Fantasy songs on your bass guitar.

  • @Xavieric311 Dude why is it idiots like you always try to come along and diss what we like if you dont like it go play with your barbies

  • @aman4trulove I didn't "try" to come along and diss what you guys like... I -=DID=- come along and diss WoW though. But please use your brain for a minute here; I came to see if Cataclysm was worth buying (which it isn't) because it's the same regurgatated BS that Blizz has been putting out the past couple of years. :D They shoulda waited until Christmas though so the 8-12 years old could storm down Christmas morning and beat each other up so they could get on WOW and spam chat. hahahahaha

  • omg omg! I just love it everytime I watch it!!

  • Whats the name of the whole soundtrack?

  • WOW - the Music .... incredible!

  • Rerdige mountains i mean

  • What the fuck is the context of the wolf scene in the badlands??????????????

  • Тащусь

  • music is just awesome

  • The music in combination with these views.. It gives me goosebumps, just awesome! Great work :) I can't wait for this expansion!

  • Absolutely amazing mate. you are godly at editing and you music taste is rare to find these. love it!

  • 1,superb editing, the fading out every 8 beats in the beginning really pulled me in this little escape from reality that you created.

    2,i applaud your taste in music, what can i say, it's so refreshing to hear good music when everywhere you go is playing lady gaga.

    3,i quit playing wow, but watching this video really made me almost want to start playing again and to unavoidably mess up my graduate study in mathematics. so screw you for that:P in all seriousness thank you for such a great video.

  • @axellemaelstrom

    Thanks for the input, I appreciate it. I feel like the technical editing with the timing of the fade ins, outs, to the beats, cut to black, transitions, flashes, etc were just not that great compared to Part 1: Kalimdor. I should have spent the extra time to recheck and make sure they were perfect. Damn it :(

    Good luck with the degree, but nobody ever quits wow o_O

  • Here is the full soundtrack listing, I've updated the description. Please promote/thumbs up this to keep it on top.

    Soundtrack listing

    Hans Zimmer: Half Remembered Dream (Inception Soundtrack)

    Two Steps From Hell: Ocean Princess

    Two Steps From Hell: Magika

    Epic Score: Siren's Call

    Audiomachine: Battle of the Kings

    Massive Impact: Call for Heroes

    Two Steps From Hell: Titan Dune

    Audiomachine: Sands of Time

  • @xazera I love how you used two steps from hell, i was disappointed that you didn't use Heart of Courage / Down with the enterprise / Moving Mountains. overall i give you 10/10 with the synchronizing of the soundtracks to the movie clips.

  • @Claymore2408 Heart of Courage was used in one of my exploration movies for WOTLK beta a few years ago. Moving Mountains and Down with the Enterprise never really fit into anything so I decided not to use them. Besides, Moving Mountains was used in the fucking Twilight trailers. Fuck them.

  • @xazera Hehe yeah i never liked twilight but i never knew it was used in twilight, i have the entire two steps from hell album so i didn't realize :)

  • @xazera is it massive impact? or Shockwave sound? cuz in youtube it comes out as shockwave sound

  • Comment removed

  • Would be nice if you could link us or tell us the soundtracks you used...some of these music is beyond me. Gave me goosebumps lol I know the first two are from "2 steps from hell"

  • What are the album listings for this movie? Where are the songs from or are they from WoW itself?

  • PLEASE TELL ME THATS THE NEW SOUNDTRACK

  • so this is what the eastern kingdoms looks like now?

  • What is the name of the song that comes up first?

  • I wonder where the music is from

  • WoW may not have the strongest art technically, but their style and use of shape and color are nearly unmatched. This game oozes character.

  • Would be nice if there would be a soundtrack list.

  • my apologies if this was most likely asked (cant find if it was), but what song is that? or songs?

  • oi be good and pls tell us the soundtrack u did use in the video :P i like the music really

  • Cool video. Im so exited about cataclysm. Music got kinda boring in the end but the first song was the best. Whats the name of that song?

  • amagad ! awesome :P

    can I get song list pls :D

  • Great vid and music.

  • fucking music is badass in this video holy shit...

  • soundtrack plox?

  • I'm guessing Arathi, the Hinterlands, the Searing Gorge, and the Burning Steppes haven't received many changes.

  • @Halisthemighty

    Correct. And a few other zones I didn't include due to lack of content/changes. STV and the zones near the end of this movie sucked.

  • what album did you get this music from? its awesome

  • could you post in the description what the music is? I totally want some of these tracks

  • what's the title of the first song? i loved it very much.

    great video.

  • Great video, great work.

  • Epic!!!

  • I haven't played in a few months since raiding kinda died out. This is the first real Cata spoiler I've seen and it looks absolutely STUNNING. Beautiful!!! Might be time to upgrade the old PC though =x

  • Great work man, love the video and music used!

  • Great work on the video. Ignore haters.

  • This is a great Video with increadable Places and wonderful Music

  • Kudos to you for making this wonderful video. The things in the description you said about the other vids like these are boring, well, very true! Your was nothing like it. The soundtrack was amazing and gave the video a very special feeling that I really liked. Especially the music when the Gilneas part was shown.

  • Kudos to you for making this wonderful video. The things in the description you said about the other vids like these are boring, well, very true! Your was nothing like it.

  • @Cadoan

    Thanks, I appreciate it. A lot of movies showing the new content were really just poorly thought out, no editing whatsoever, and generally boring when they tried to narrate what was going on. I wish some of my transitions and editing were more polished; oh well can't win them all with deadlines!

  • @xazera I'm all with you! Keep up the good work, really!

  • Big thanks for making these videos, a much appreciated effort :)

  • @munha666 Cool story bro.

  • @munha666

    Nothing from fanbois, just correcting an ignorant hateful commentor. That's all I saw. You bitched and insulted, people retaliating..calmly.
