>>738211884The point was to demonstrate the hubris of man. It was kino storytelling. You will never understand
YEAH, I MIGHT'VE HELPED THE ORCS TO MURDER THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AND RAZE STORMWIND, BUT THAT'S ALL IN THE PAST BRO, YOU NEED TO BELIEVE ME!
More than two decades later and people still talk about individual events in Warcraft 3, it has a level of discussion and staying power that current games can't dream of reaching Why don't they make them like this anymore
>>738212278Kids of today will be talking about their games when they grow up, too.
>>738212020I thought the point was to show Medivh was kind of a dick.
>>738212404Not really, people have been talking about Warcraft 3 throughout all those 20+ years, starting with its releaseAlmost no other game has had that level of world/story staying power, where people still seriously discuss the characters, their decisions, pivotal events etc Another game like that is New Vegas, there are no games in the last 10 years that had anything similar, it would've manifested immediately not decades later because that's how it was with Warcraft and Fallout
>>738212404like what? most people i know younger than me are actually just emulating or playing the same shit i did, gamings p bad rn bro
>>738211884Yeah he should have presented them with hard data and measurements, that always convinces politicians and they always do something about problems they can see coming decades in advance
>>738211884>didn't do it>the whole kingdom becomes a zombie wastelandIn hindsight he was fucking right.

>>738211884Here's a """hot take""" - the WarCraft storyline was always shit, and was always based on retcon upon retcon upon retcon.It's the same with StarCraft - I still remember the pre-release website for the game where the Protoss Empire wasn't some unknown entity and were engaged in a cold war with the Terran Confederacy. Hell, I remember post-release material that mentioned other alien civilizations in the setting.
