What WoW storylines and quests made you cry?
None. To be dam honest. This game doesnât have the writing skills to give me high emotions.
Not a storyline but typing /played on my main toon
None. This game doesnât give many emotional storylines and this is coming from a guy who teared up at the end of Wall-E
The storylines that are emotional/actually good seem to all happen off camera.
I would have loved to see the meeting of Stormwind/Lorderon Calia death scene as a cinematic.
Storyline? None.
Yseraâs cutscene? Yes. Not the story, it was dumb and ti taught me to completely despise Malfurion and Tyrande, but the cutscene was very emotional.
When I saw the patch notes for WoD after playing the absolute banger that was Mists.
I miss vengeance.
When you have to save, Uuna, from the shadows and sheâs clearly scared of the monsters. Iâm a dad and for some reason I immediately think of my little girl and I start becoming emotional about this little girlâs soul in a video game.
That and the sequence of events as you try to save Crusader Bridenbrad. Despite everything you do, he succumbs. Then, at the last second the Narru show up and take him to heaven. Itâs a pretty moving moment.
Varianâs death really got me.
I didnât cry, but I was dying and felt sick on the inside. The whole Broken Shore was well done to me. Tirionâs death, then Varian. I think it was everything⌠from the music, from the desperation and tension, then finally the painful end. I never wanted to kill a boss so bad from WoW (Gulâdan). It really got me so pumped to play Legion, and I hope SL manages to make me feel that way too.
Ah!! Yeah Ysera got me too. Was a moment.
Persona 2 and 3 were the only games that made me cry tbh.
That crusader in icecrown who was dying and eventually the Naru take him
Matters around the Tauren pallyâs wife in Pandaria
Darkshore in cataclysm (specifically the stuff around Grimclaw, the final text
" Youâve returned! It is good to see you again. I suppose we have you to thank for Grimclawâs return?
Iâm afraid⌠I have some bad news. Iâve been unable to purge the toxin⌠their conditions worsen. Gershalla died shortly after you left, and Volcor⌠Volcor passed just before you came back.
He lived long enough to see Grimclaw come back safely, so he died with a smile on his face. Iâm just sorry that I couldnât do more.
For now, Iâm doing everything I can to save Shadlyn, so please excuse me. "
danged allergies /sniffle
This x100. There is nothing in this game that has any emotional impact because the character writing is so often hackneyed garbage.
I (for some reason) got emotional during the Arthas cutscene at the end of ICC.
Never cried BUT
Patch 7.2 In-game Cinematic when Anduin recover the sword of his father was pretty emotional.
Valâsharah.
If you meant crying with laughter.
Iâve never laughed so hard at this game than when I saw the Tyrande and Malfurion dialogue. And no I donât mean the âbut it was clearly Xaviusâ part, I mean the entire damn thing.
The writing and voice acting in that zone was a âso bad itâs goodâ moment that made me desperately want WoW to embrace itâs status as a parody game.
I cry a little every time I kill Hellscream and he doesnât give me those damn tusks.
Thereâs another one from WotLK that got me.
In Sholazar Basin youâre sent to save the Oracles from the invading scourge. As you try to revive one he says something like, âWhy did this happenâ? And dies offering his shinies. Then, you just see so many dead/dying Oracles being dragged by these monstrosities. It made me legitimately sad and angry at the same time.
Legion entry. Varian.
Sylvanas beating Bolvar was pretty depressing. Does that count?
Pamela RedpathâŚI donât think she knows sheâs deadâŚ
