World of Warcraft - Cataclysm Cinematic Intro

@<a rel="nofollow" href="http://videosift.com/member/Xaielao" title="member since March 13th, 2009" class="profilelink">Xaielao About the CG intros. I disagree. I think the intro for Wrath of the Lich King was better, because the storytelling was more focused on, while the "action" was held off for a long time. It's obviously harder when the "protagonist" of the videos is a huge-ass dragon, but I think this is more action-packed, but I like the quiet summoning of the frostwyrm in the older one.
But both Wrath and Cataclysm is far superior to the original or burning crusade intro.


I think you have a strong argument because up until that point and because of Warcraft 3, the Fall of Arthas was the most compelling story they had going for them. I remember back in Vanilla going to Statholme and just being in awe of the genocide that took place there even if I agree with it. So the story for building Arthas and his eventual arrival as main antagonist made that Intro really special.

I like this Deathwing Intro because finally we have a Dragon as the Marquee boss of an expansion. Dragons play a absolutely huge role in Warcraft lore and they're usually put down as side bosses or one off instances. Now we have a Dragon that is really terrifying and I'm really glad a GIANT evil Fire Breathing world destroying Dragon that we can do battle with at the end of this expansion...it's going to be sweet.

Oh god, couldn't stand the butchering they gave to the lore from the previous two titles. Not to mention angsty Arthas and emo Illidan, and the whole shamanistic mess they for some reason decided to haphazardly turn the previously cool savage orcs into.
