Even Gallywix was there.
Even Gallywix was there.
Jaina basically murdered her father to stick up for the Horde, and the Horde eventually paid her back by nuking her city. Of course she's a batshit crazy ragebeast now.
Anyway no Horide can explain why Vol'Jin and Thrall would sit there at the very throne of Orgrimmar and let Varian threaten them openly without even going "Hey sir, I object to that tone!" except for them being bitches. Vol'Jin and Thrall are bitches, Varian Chynn has them on a leash. He comes up to them in Orgrimmar and goes "Don't let me catch you fucking off, or I will end your horde! Also give me your lunch money!" and the Horde just hands it over.
I know, just a cut back to Vol'jin looking pissed would be fine. "A look like "Yeah yeah yeah, talk your shit now...." But letting Varian have the last word so to speak, makes the new warchief look like a puss. The exchange started off cool. The look of shock on Varians face when the orcs parted and he saw Vol'jin was cool. The look Thrall gave him, the "yeah thats right McChin. Do something." was great. Then it ends with Varian taking thier twinkies thier moms packed.
"I Speak for the Horde." Is not making Vol'Jin look like a "puss".
Given that the Alliance was in a FAR more tactically superior position at the end of the Siege - I feel that Varian warning the Horde not to try to stab them in the back on their way out is sort of fine as a closing line.
I agree that Vol'jin is the best choice for Warchief since he doesnt want it (Thats what makes him perfect. Carine would have been better ) And his answering to Varian and standing straighter when he walked up to was showing he wasnt backing down, it was just the last 5 seconds letting Varian have the last look just bothered me. Vol'jin isnt stupid. He knew he needed the alliance to help, he's smart enough to know that the Horde is at a disadvantage and to let the alliance go with out trouble, but the implied "Bitch" at the end of Varians line is whats bothering me.
Well, this was a pretty decent end cinematic.
Thrall had the balls to actually finish Garrosh, sweet.
Garrosh first ever WoW xpac villain to survive, sweet.
Thrall admits Vol'Jin is his better and kneels, sweet.
Varian giving the Horde a chance, cliche but very cool of him.
Vol'Jin not standing upright the entire cinematic, meh.
Vol'Jin's size significantly increased all of a sudden, meh.
Jaina being merciless, meh.
Overall supriseless except for Garrosh's imprisonment, still manages to make a good end cinematic, thumbs up Blizz.
Only thing I miss are Blizz's true cinematics. Everything for past couple of years has been more like cut scenes. I miss the true cinematic that made you feel like you were watching a movie
Finally got a chance to make this tweak to the ending of the cinematic. To me, I think it ends it better

Overall it doesnt change how it goes down, but I think the reaction shot of Vol'jin makes it clear that he's thinking "Ok mon, we'll play it your way while you got de uperhand......for now."
Is there any horde dialogue after the video, like the alliance?
It is very WC3 Thrall. Its definitely not WotLK onwards Thrall but I dont think thats a bad thing. I think after WotLK and Cataclysm, the do no wrong Neutral Thrall needs to be toned down.
Because Thrall has always been very open to dealing with the Alliance in some way. Vol'Jin is depicted in Shadows of the Horde by the Alliance soldiers, as a human hunting machine. His reputation as well as the unknown - I mean how many times have Varian and Vol'Jin been in the same room with each other? Out of all the Horde leaders, Vol'Jin is probably the most unknown to the Alliance.
I don't think he is afraid, more cautious. Varian has dealth with Thrall before, he knows he is able to be reasoned with. Reasoning with a Troll? Especially one as proud as Vol'Jin - not as easy.
