to Wrath of the Lich King is a cinematic masterpiece.
It like, the story sense chills down my spine.
It's tremendous writing.
Blizzard has always had such incredible narrative.
I don't know if you guys, nobody really plays Overwatch anymore, but did you ever see the short film, The Last Bastion?
Oh my God, there's not a single word said in that short film, and talk about some of the best narrative storytelling.
Wrath of the Lich King's intro was just like, I watched it like, wow.
The story is so incredible.
Basically, the way it works is you're watching the Lich King.
He's effectively undead.
And he's raising a bone army.
there is the narrative of his father reading a letter to him about how he wishes when he grows up, he'll be a great man.
And he turns into this like plague of evil.
Prince Arthas, he gets overcome with rage, trying to hunt the villain.
He becomes the villain he's trying to destroy.
And then he becomes the Lich King itself.
