Thoughts on the new TWW cinematic?

The Power of One the Power of Two the Power of Manyyyyyy ahh vibes…
Jokes aside how’s this a cinematic? how’s this comparable to Wotlk/WoD cinematic. this is merely a teaser.
Edit: for those of you who can’t read and are saying saying it’s just a teaser, the video is literally titled: “The War Within Official Cinematic | Shadows Beneath | World of Warcraft”

Of all the WoW cinematics, this is definitely one of them.

To be honest I feel like I’ve watched the same trailer like 3 times now just with the scenes in different orders.

compared to those, it’s waaaaaaay down there. but compared to other cinematics? well, i’d say it was better than shadowlands, and the dragonflight ones. it’s no MoP, or legion, but it’s okay, as far as cinematics go. i’d say it’s right below the middle. it’s not ‘good’ but it’s not bad.

Pretty good for a teaser trailer, though it will never compare to wrath at least for me.

However it’s quite disappointing that we don’t get more works like it in game…
If you guys get my meaning

Super cool. Storytelling without words. Amazing music.

I mean SL and DF were actual cinematics with some context that convoyed the story. they were quite bland but they were cinematics. I feel like I had already watched this “cinematic” after watching it.

Well the youtuble title of the video is “The War Within Official Cinematic” it’s not a teaser trailer.

Maybe on par with the weird overly joyous Dragon Flight trailer where the troll and dwarf frolicked about the clouds?

Kind of a nothing burger. The nerubians where interesting.

I can’t imagine this cinematic getting anyone new interested in WoW, and most regular WoW players are just going to go “ok” after seeing it once and not watch it again. Feel’s like a bit of a waste of the cinematic team’s production quality.

It’s like 2 minutes long so :dracthyr_shrug:
It was good for what it was

pretty sure they reused stuff they’ve already shown lame

this is closer to the SL vibe cinematic here it just showed off the different zones and leaders. With the Jailer grinning at the screen…almost identical to a T

It was disappointing. To be honest it’s one of the worst cinematic with Dragon Flight.

i guess, but in terms of quality/hype, those ones did’nt really jazz me up, y’know? not like the other cinematics, like burning crusade, classic, mop, or cataclysm did. heck, i sometimes watch the old cinematics just to feel the excitement, while shadowlands and dragonflight… just make me feel sick.

they make me remember the dread of how i felt going into shadowlands (not good dread, ACTUAL dread), and how burnt/burnt-out i felt going into dragonflight.

this new one? well, i’m pretty-numb to whatever they’re trying to push, but as far as my non-hype goes, this one did’nt actively make me feel worse.

…i should mention i started in MoP, but i still enjoy the old cinematics.

nothing they’ve put out, has topped the lords of war, and harbingers:gul’dan vids they put out way back when though.

It was pretty cool. I LOVED that shot of the underground spider looking city. That was gorgeous.

Also the troll lady was cool. I forget what they’re called. Haronir? Anyway. They’re cool. Her green eyes were really pretty and the animation of her dancing was very nicely done.

Or even just little details like the one armed woman ( I’m outta the loop on purpose I don’t know names yet really ) having her ears move as she’s putting on her armor over her head. I love little animation details like that.

I mean SL cinematic had sylvanas and bolvar fight a cool battle and breaking the helm of domination stuff that convoyed the story towards the shadowlands lunch. how does this do the same ? :rofl:

Oh lol thought it was a teaser

My bad, kind of a expected more from something that’s supposed to kick off this saga…

As for the “cinematics” in shadowlands I don’t count them, as they are not as good as quality as say what we just got…

But that’s expected… shadowlands was slop

I was referring to the Launch cinematic for Shadowlands

I see, I wouldn’t compare a lunch cinematic to an official expansion cinematic though.

Wanted to see more of whatever the heck that thing is that the nerubian was infront of, it looked sick.
