After sending her infant son Thrall to safety, Durotan’s wife Draka turns to the camera and winks, saying “Good luck, son. Good luck in Heroes of the Storm, where champions from all worlds gather to fight for glory and honour, free to play on Battle.net."

>Why is Grom in this movie
Because fans recognize Grom.

Grom doesn't enter Azeroth until Ner'Zhul invades Azeroth, which is in the wc2 expansion after orgrim doomhammers horde has been beaten.

>when Thrall was born? Arent they like best buddies?

After Ner'Zhul has failed, Grom and his clan remain in azeroth living in the outskirts of human civilization.
Thrall grows up and frees himself and he meets with Grom.
Thrall is basically an orcaboo who hasn't been in orc society much so he loves Grom, and Grom thinks Thrall is strong and wise.

RoC has a great ending.
The Human and Undead campaigns are GOAT.

Orc campaign is a bit weaker, but compare it to the tft orc one and it's still the superior one.


TFT blood elf style when they're still in lordaeron is nice though. Both during the nelf and "human" campaign.

Since they've made the orcs so damn big it's hard to make the night elves good imo.

Fucking Grom is shocked at how they look like elves, but they're savage and later on describes them as perfect warriors.
That's gonna be hard to take seriously when the orcs are so enormous.

Would love to see initial encounters with orcs and night elves though. Later on grom having to rely on the blood pact to beat them back.

Then see Tyrande go full on did nothing wrong and slaughter them and the humans.

Would love to see Maiev in a lot of armor chasing down naga and Illidan too.

The brown orcs, and Thralls orcs have always been misunderstood since the original story. The fel fucked the orcs royally, because everyone hates them all for what Gul'dan and the fel brought them to do.

He was dooming his people to demonhood, which is a pretty shitty life. Convincing them to consume fel energy wasn't very nice, either. If he had just stuck with Illidan it would have been fine, but he was seduced by power, as his kind are wont to be.

>>340649950
What about Ner'zhul and the other Orc chieftains?
>>
>>340649950
Gul'dan was corrupted by the demons as well. He wanted power for his people, the power destroyed his homeland. Rather than have his people die he invaded another world with the intention of conquering and living on that planet instead.

Almost every warcraft villain is a good guy who became "corrupted" .

No he simply said that they are bigger and far more savage then high/blood elves and he never called them perfect warriors.

The blood pact was only needed because he was fighting a demigod .

>>
>>340650138
Gul'dan at that point was a fel-corurpted Orc, and he had to rely on his fel power/life sucking to win. (or at least to end the fight quicker so he could be ready for the dark portal opening)
>>
>>340650481
He saw that he was losing the respect of the horde, so he was trying to hold back on just instantly reking him with magic. That's why he only did it when he started losing.

>>340656514

Multiple reasons

The first is that it used to be OK, back when it was a bit more grimdark. They flushed out the orc clans among other things and it had a lot of potiential.

They then made several core mistakes that ruined it. The first is they let a man named Richard Knaak start writing lore books. While later books were based off lore concepts that were already explained in the games, his first book made huge lore contributions such as the Dragon Flights (prior to this Alexstrasa and Deathwing were just two powerful dragons). As we all know, the dragon lore in WoW is among the worst.

The second mistake was more of a decline, Metzen got older and started seeing the grimdark elements as immature and edgy, developing a love for silver age comics and developing a Michael Bay mentality.

They got incredibly lazy and started taking the dumbest elements from other franchises (Titans and Old gods from Cthulhu Mythos, for example). You can pretty much tell they quickly cycled through writers are every single addition to the lore retconned something and certain things changed purpose every time.

Some good examples include arcane magic and The Emerald Dream. First Arcane magic was just magic, then it was made into evil demon shit, demons were immune to it and mages were susceptible to corruption. They even described arcane as being the lighter drug and fel being the purest full throttle drug, which is why Dalaran had a demon problem. But then that was retconned so that Arcane is separate from Fel and magic was no longer demonic, because the well of eternity couldn't be demonic.

The emerald dream literally changed purpose every time it was mentioned, first it was a blueprint of Azeroth, then a life bank/backup for Azeroth, now it's the planets dream.

Durotar was originally chosen because the landscape reminded orcs of their homeworld, which was red wasteland and mushroom forests.

They slowly phased that out until WoD fully retconned it, their excuse for Zangarmarsh is that it's the remains of the Zangar Sea which was loaded with shrooms.

Durotar was retconned as being selected because it was the shittiest land on Kalmidor, as a way for the orcs to atone.

>part of why Deathwing became the Old Gods' slave is because they kept telling him he could have the world to himself, with Ysera and Alexstrasza as his fucktoys
>he also gave the orcs the Demon Soul in WCII which directly lead to her being forced to pump out thousands of kids for the orcs to use as riding mounts

This basically.

I think another problem comes from Metzen stepping back a bit and Samwise getting more influential.

Samwise loves drawing cool badass heroic brotherhood stuff and not really thinking about how it fits.
Saw some videos about how he, kind of joking, saying how these(referring to editors) are the guys who stop him from putting his cool shit in the games.
I think over time he and maybe others in the art and story departments became less grounded, less controlled and then orcs started getting bigger and the franschise became more like a comic book.

Oh and I meant with stories that are just good. People latch onto Warcraft cause it was their first fantasy story. If they had read fantasy fiction earlier in their lives, they wouldn't have been as impressed. tl;dr go play some of those games or read some Terry Brooks or Terry Pratchett or Robert Jordan or R.A. Salvatore (the non-Drizz't stuff.) or Jack Vance or Brent Weeks (I don't remember when his first series came out.) or Patrick Rothfuss or Steven King's Dark Tower.

There was so much good fantasy in the 80's and 90's that Warcraft's long list of cliches and shit was trite by comparison.

Blizzard still struggles with it, since they kept putting world maintenance jobs on their robots while the dragons kept looking out of place.

Their assignments are the worst

>Blue Dragons are Magic fags,
>except the lore stated the well was placed by titans for all races to use.

>Black Dragons "protect the deep"
>Knaak literally trying to force feed DND's Underdark into Azeroth
>Blizzard manages to make it less retarded by flushing out shaman lore and giving the Black Dragons as role as Guardians of the elements so it's less retarded

>Green Dragons protect life and nature
>Red Dragons protect life and nature
>Knaak struggles to think of a role for his Red Dragons because he wants them to be non-elemental, gives them the nature dragons role and make the nature dragon protect another dimension blizzard didn't have a canon reason for.

>Bronze dragons
>With Only two out 4 dragons with a well thought out role in being some sort of world deity knaak really struggled to come up with something, so he makes them time travelers.
>This is perfect for him, because it gives him a reason to shove is OC characters at any point in WoW history
>Since blizzard has no real lore on such a retarded concept, claim the Old Gods can alter time
>Let's also come up with retarded things like "the right time line" and make the bronze the most useless flight.
>Blizzard ends up fucking this retarded idea up worse by making them self-defeating, in the sense that they were the only ones changing time and not the old gods.

Terry Pratchett is my favourite author.
I read some shannara and robert jordan before wc3 came out.


I still think wc1-3 have good story/lore, but no sure I didn't read pratchett before wc2.

Metzen has become as bad as Samwise, he did some Transformers comic years ago and gushed over it like a huge autist. He basically completely lost his original feel for grimdark and went full "muh heroes".

Why do you think Overwatch is about superheroes?

I actually saw it last night. Friend I've had over WoW for about 7 years now and I both saw it and we're massive Warcraft fans and of the lore.

We both liked it, but it definitely had a fuckton of flaws. Atleast in my opinion.

So here's a question, is Doomhammer going to be a completely different character in the second movie compared to how he is in the games and shitty lorebooks? Without Doomhammer killing Blackhand he can't usurp the Warchief title by force and this movie version of Doomhammer has no reason to spare Gul'dan or do any of the other shit he's supposed to do like have alexstrasza raped for dragons and shit.

I always liked Doomhammer's character in the games because he's not a good guy, he's a legendary figure to Orcs because he did what he had to do to keep the Horde alive, going as far as sparing fucking Gul'dan so they could make use of his warlock powers and shit, but Alliance races see him as a terrible evil who fucked shit up and caused terrible calamity.
>>
>>340661146
Doomhammer is a good guy.
He did nothing wrong.
Lothar died in an honorable duel or MAK'GORA how it's called in the superior Orc culture and customs.
Don't fall for Alliance propaganda.

Grom was friends with Thrall's dad I believe, they grew up together as good friends, which was a huge deal because they were from different clans. Thrall meets him when hes older

>>
>>340664393
Didn't some of them get away?
>>
>>340664486
Maybe? I found myself not caring at all after that stupid canyon ambush.
>>
>>340664393
Looking in retrospective, Thrall's story is pretty fucked up.
There's no fucking way you can get from the swamp of sorrows to Hillsbrad from a river, and even ignoring that, how will they make him learn shaman magic?
The Frostwolves are dead so he can't go find them in the Alterac mountains, and in this movie there isn't a shaman mention anyway.
Doomhammer fucks off so I guess that'll be okay, but what about his black armor?
>>
>>340664675
Yeah I alt tabbed a bit around that time so I'm not sure either.
>>
>>340664758
You'd would think that with the pivotal role that Drek'Thar has in Frostwolf lore, he'd at least have a minor role in the movie.

It really is going to be interesting on how they advance the plot into WC2 with how they handled the lore points in the movie.

A human girl befriends him, he basically falls in love with her. She shows him that there's good people and bad people and that he shouldn't hate all humans.
Later when they're adults the leader of the castle marries the girl and basically rapes her everyday. Thrall eventually escapes and gets super shaman powers, becomes something of the leader of all the low morale orcs.
Leader guy finds out his wife/sex slave been hanging out with Thrall and going to a secret cave at nights to talk and hangout with him.
He thinks they're fucking or something and murders her, throws her head at the feet of Thrall. Thrall summons the element of earth to fuck up the whole castle and then kills the dude.
Its been a few years since I read the book so I might've gotten some details wrong
