Yes, and you're a fucking retard for asking as if you're somehow special because you know about some (not) obscure video game.

Explain how Warcraft is connected to WoW.

World of Warcraft is the fourth game, and the events happen after the events of the third game.

>you're somehow special because you know about some (not) obscure video game.
Warcraft was a modest hit for its time. That's like saying Command and Conquer is obscure.

Are you retarded?

please go ahead and explain how theres absolutely no connection

>>69762660

Because Gryphons as mounts, all the areas look like what they did inWoW, Murlocs, Hogger reference, ect ect

Its a movie based more on what Warcraft has become SINCE WoW then it is how it was when the original was released.

Those were included in the books first, WoW had nothing to do with those.

I wish I could turn back time back in 2003, when WoW was still a pipe dream for Blizzard. Then as a Warcraft fan, I wouldn't have to deal with retarded wow faggots.

No the movie is more based on The Last Guardian and the lore developments and that have happened during WoW

If the movie was based on your pic Durotan and his Frostwolfs would not exist and the Orcs would just be demonic evil barbarians.

I wish they went with that. Orcs are supposed to be badass, cannibalistic fuckers, not tree hugging hippies.

they were going directly from Warcraft II to wow, but fans reigned them in to make Warcraft III.

WoW is still a terrible mistake. How come Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3 sucked that hard? They wouldn't have sucked if WoW never existed.
