    Narrative wise that does make her a character without agency. And characters without agency can easily be axed without any consequences to a story.

    Someone please explain, cause I must have missed out on some heavy shit. I bet the soulsplit would mean that she was just partly mind controlled all the time. Reminds me of someone.. Looool
    It isn't really explained. I guess the delayed tie in novel will tell it. We stopped Sylvanas, but we still don't know what she hoped to gain by helpong Zovaal whose plan likewise we don't know.

    I do not know. It's is strange as they did say they were going to produce some for Shadowlands, BfA had like 6 of them and they were great, I would like to think COVID had a role in the lack of use of cinematics with blizzard being away from the offices and working from home, but 2 cinematics from BFA and the Shadowlands cinematic were made under COVID restrictions too unless all those cinematics were done before COVID. :P

    Are we certain that was her soul? How was she even "living" / thinking without a soul?

    Also, what even was the reason for her helping the Jailer if the word "serve" triggered her to oppose him?
    I don't buy that she did it (starting wars and killing all those people) just to recover her soul

    Not her soul in its entirety. Just a piece of it. Same as with Uther.

    Oh well, after 30ish years it is inevitable that they can't keep quality in storytelling.
    Are you even following WoW Lore mate?

    After killing Archimonde, a guy who killed thousands of Draenei just yelled "Draenor is free" and suddenly no one wanted to kill him for his crimes.

    We don't need every character to be completely dumb.
    I can hear Talisien sum up this comment at the start of a new video. Have the name danuser in there as well and you are 100% you will be made fun off soon.

    Agreed, covid might have to do something with the lack of cgi cinematics. But there will probably be the one with a necropolis floating above Kaskala in Borean Tundra. Remember the leak?

    That's exactly what I wanted to do.




    Imagine Hitler suddenly being sad and everyone would be like "well, now we have to spare you".
    This isn't even cringe, it's not even epic, just a bad writing to the bone.

    The image with the necropolis flying above Northrend(?).

    It's nothing specific or confirmed, just a random image.
    Here's the image:

    Not a confirmed leak, but it definitely looks like it could be from a cgi cinematic: https://www.mmo-champion.com/threads...Cinematic-leak

    The location in the image resembles how Kaskala looks ingame from above. The rendering is very realistic.

    Am I the only one that didn't see that as a redemption?

    She attacked Zovaal for her own selfishness. Very much in tune with her overall characterization.

    What.. these little betas are sending death threats to the writers now?! LOL. Those fat little basement dwellers aren't killing anything, they're not even leaving their houses. Maybe if they add 'assassinations' to the Uber Eats menu she might be in trouble... otherwise, hard to take that seriously.

    I liked the cinematic, I liked it just as much as the tears of the Sylvie haters.
    Also her missing word is obviously "Sepulcher"
