I was expecting him to drop a "BOW DOWN BEFORE THE GOD OF DEATH!" at the end there.

Some of those early lines seemed a bit rough compared to the later clips. The voice sounds a little too forced when he's supposed to be yelling, or... talking loudly? I dunno. It's a lot better after 00:34, though. You definitely get the feel that his voice should cause the ground to tremble.

Bierzkrieg · 07/22/10, 8:11 PM

Well, talk about god complex: Unmaker of Worlds, Death Incarnate, "Death is my realm"...he seems to be on a power pedestal.

I hear a "Ugh", let's hope one doesn't come up every time Deathwing appears. No more Lich King-esque weakness, please.

More importantly, though...we seem to be on the right way to see Deathwing thrashing Alexstrasza. Which makes some sense, since we know nothing of her in the coming expansion - also, that piece of art that made it to the cover of the WoW Magazine could've been a hint.

PS: Garrosh has the meanest orc voice I've ever heard. Those horns must be dripping testosterone.

Edit: Double post, sorry.

He does seem to be roaring alot everytime he opens his mouth, it's a far cry from his voice in ToC, or even this trailer. World of Warcraft Community Site

He sounded sinister and had a nasty streak about him, now he's just more of a meathead....I....guess that's what the Orcs are looking for in their leadership?

Edit: another one uploaded, this of Vol'jin/Garrosh conversation, and one of Garrosh yelling and going into battle and rawr in the Twilight Highlands.

I don't know, I have a soft spot for them roaring types. I guess that's why I'm still getting used to Deathwing's voice, it's not "rumbly" enough.

Garrosh does seem wiser, both in his vocabulary and in what he says. But his "B-ITCH!" line takes the trophy, being so full of contempt and urge to hurt Sylvannas.

One last sound clip

Garrosh and Vol'jin and Garrosh in various battles:

"Get.Of.My.SHIIIP." Such ham.

Deathwing clip is gone...it's just some stupid French techno clip now

So the first half of this clip is the final conversation between Vol'jin and Garrosh but the rest of the clip is full of Garrosh voice acting from the invasion of the Twilight Highlands?

The most interesting part is when he says "Ah, there she is. The battle-maiden of the Dragonmaw, let me see your face. Blood and honour hero, the Horde welcomes you, your people will be put to the test as we obliterate Twilight's Hammer, and lay claim to this distant shore."

So it seems that the whiners on the WoW cataclysm forums got their Female Leader even if it isn't a goblin. Perhaps the daughter of Nek'rosh Skullcrusher?

A love interest for Garrosh? :P

Emeraude · 07/22/10, 10:40 PM

I'm still waiting on Thrall's love interest, Metzen said there will be no hybrid breeding between Jaina/Thrall, and he wanted to keep that Bloodline pure Orc!

Leguaran · 07/23/10, 1:09 AM

Have these been mentioned? I believe they are from the latest push: (I placed them within spoilers as to not break formatting or visually spam you.

Falstad has been replaced in the Ironforge Council, Kurdran is back from Outlands and sitting at the table in his place.

Flavor dialogue text added to an NPC in refuge point regarding the return of Danath Trollbane:

This is interesting to me. Sons of Lothar finally making a return from Outlands and back into the Alliance. For a gameplay standpoint, I wouldn't expect Khadgar to make a return, seeing as he is so tied up with the Naaru now, but it would certainly be nice if we were to see Danath coming back to find his cousin, Prince Galen, turned undead and allied with the Horde/Forsaken.

One can hope we will see some fighting over the ruins of Stromgarde, its Prince, now part of the Horde, with legitimate claim over the land (in a way, you can say he does, though it would be disputed by the Alliance on grounds he is not alive anymore, and it's not like they would want the Horde to have it), and Danath, his cousin, with a claim of his own to retake itfor the Alliance.

Much potential for awesome story development.

Emeraude · 07/23/10, 1:43 AM

So the WPL quest for Uther's tome is still bugged.

But EPL opened! It starts off simple enough, 2 Paladins want in to the Argent Crusade/Dawn, and you help them along the way, I'm still doing the quests. Tyr's hand is overun with Undead Scarlets.

Scarlet Commander Marjhan, Hunsman Leopold, Mataus the Wrathcaster and Rohan the Assassin were all killed and turned into Undead. :<

And we have a payday, I decided to do the quests inside Startholme, and got some information on Dreadlord death, this is one that I've been asking, and we've ALL been asking for quite some time =D

Strath is NOT 2 separate instances, but you can't access the Baron side without zoning in from the side-enterance, the gates are down leading from the Crusader side to the Scourge side.

The Argent Crusade moves in and occupies each respective area after the new Baron/Balnazzar die.

Liebestod · 07/23/10, 2:44 AM

Does Sylvanas have a new VA? Her having a new england accent is pretty amusing.. "I will nevah allow it. Nevah!"

Also, it seems like her history has been retconned (again)? She says that she only got her body back after rebelling against Arthas, while in TFT she's a Dark Ranger from the start of the campaign, before she rebels. I know the lore over when she got her body back was always somewhat murky, but this clearly contradicts Warcraft 3.

I believe that, at the beginning of the TFT campaign, Sylvanas was possessing a random High Elf corpse. After her rebellion, she was able to hunt down and reclaim her original body (which was sealed in an iron coffin by Arthas).

Someone on official forums managed to sinish Andorhal questline on Alliance site. Link
Thassarian apparently is moving to Tirisfal to hunt down Sylvanas

Bierzkrieg · 07/23/10, 8:02 AM

Everything according to plan...as soon as Thassarian prepares to face Sylvannas, a frothing, berserking - and familiar - undead elf will step out of a portal. Big fight and tragic outcome ensue.
