WotLK Cinematic Trailer Out!!!
- Thread starter Skwissgar
- Start date
It seemed kinda incomplete when I watched it. I mean, look at the BC trailer. It showcased Illidan, the new races, samples of play (those we could've done without).
The WotLK trailer on the other hand...
It's just seemed too much like a fluff piece, a teaser instead of an actual trailer. A montage on the Arthas himself is all well and good (yes, Sindrigosa is badass), but it showed nothing else. The Lich King can't be the only new feature of the xpac.

It's cool to watch but, for the purpose....The cinematic trailer honestly sucks. Consider the fact that the raid instance is not going to be released along -with- the actual expansion, but will be a patch, ala Sunwell Plateau. A trailer that hypes the power of the Lich King and his frost wyrm and armies...and then makes you wait for a patch? Sucks sooooooooo badly.
It'd serve better as the sort of trailer they'd release -with- a patch that includes the actual raid.
For the purpose of the expansion, they'd want to focus on the death knight, and other northrend content. Which the -original- WotLK trailer does vastly better, although it lacks the cinematic feel.

Ouch. Must have forgotten about that part (the raid being a patch like Sunwell).
In that case, I completely agree with the two post above. Though I see it as just a great looking CGI video, it doesn't show much of what IS going to be in the expansion pack sans patch. More Death Knight and more Northrend scenes would have been better.
But again, I love Blizzard's CGI trailers. Makes big Hollywood CGI movies look like crap (Beowulf? The first Final Fantasy movie? <_< ). And yes I know 2 minutes is not the same as 2 hours. Still...
