    Shadowlands Afterlives: Animated Series

    "Just as our choices determine who we are in life – they pave the paths we take in the afterlife. Prepare to delve into four realms of the Shadowlands – Bastion, Maldraxxus, Ardenweald, and Revendreth – and discover the journeys souls take once they cross the eternal veil."

    Is that Arthas @0:35?

    I think it was Uther's last moments before being killed by Arthas.

    Arthas and Uther during their final encounter back in WC3.





    I'm interested to see if there will be any apparent retcons in this series for Uther's fall to Arthas. Similar how Sylvanas' death to Arthas has had some minor retcons between the many different interpretations of it (the original in WC3, Lament of the Highborne video, and her Warbringer short).

    This seems way more hype and way more personal than the others. I like it.

    Outside of the Sylvanas one, I haven't hated a single one of these animated shorts. So I am pretty pumped for this

    Nice little bit of the Arthas and Uther encounter, makes me hopeful that he might play a role at some point:

    I can dig it. These have always been pretty entertaining.

    This art has screensaver potential.


    I wonder if designers can animate it slightly and make it one of those "live animation" backgrounds you see floating around?

    Good shout. Fingers crossed one of the Wallpaper Engine folks picks it up & gives it a good go, as that'd look pretty stunning on a 21:9 display.

    Chills, dude. Chills.

    Really looking forward to these.

    Makes sense, had to look back to double check

    He definitely will. In BfA, they gave Arthas a new in-game model used only in that one cinematic. I doubt Blizzard would polish up and create a new character model just for a throwaway cinematic during the leveling experience. Especially since none of the other old characters in that cinematic had new models of their own

    that doesn't look like the future place of Uther's Tomb nor the outskirts of Andorhal

    I've been waiting for these
    You are welcome, Metzen. I hope you won't fuck up my underground expansion idea.
