It's the same lack of emotion and care that floods modern media today; a saturation of remakes, cash flowing, ignorance abundant, childhoods reimagined, golems created.
At some point, probably just before the finale, either Arthas redeemed or Anduin will reenact the Wrath of the Lich King cinematic. He will mass awaken "the dead", which are apparently the player characters and the NPCs of this expansion (?). It will be in the same fashion that Arthas and Sindragosa did, with the dead's eyes glowing blue in response to her roar. It will be sort of like a mass resurrection / army of the dead type cliche. It will sort of "rhyme" with the WotLK cinematic, if that makes sense.
I used to love this story but I cannot stand how predators rape and pillage the nostalgia of their customers nowadays. If I ever buy this expansion I'll come back and spoil the rest. I'm just going off a brief summary of the expansion someone wrote and Blizzard's track record. The overwhelming majority of the story of Warcraft is based off ancient literature. I suggest you log off, stop paying these people, and start reading if you like the lore established here - though weening off is the best strategy. If you ever do this, Warcraft, Diablo, Harry Potter, Dragonball Z, Lord of the Rings, and many, many other stories will all make sense. The people who work there now are just milking what's already been created. They are without creativity or emotion, only money hoarders and wielders of cold logic: the psychopath. For the record, I like Metzen and think he had good intentions. The people there now do not. I hope this helps you out. Have a nice day.
