| This iconic cinematic was a departure from the strong storytelling that opened previous Warcraft games. After a broad introduction about raging wars and uneasy alliances, the voiceover ends. What follows shows off some of the WoW races and classes against backdrops from around Azeroth. Doing this quite successfully captures the sense of wonder first felt by most WoW players and the sense of that there were many stories to come. It features a Dwarf Hunter, Night Elf Druid, Tauren Shaman, Undead Warlock, Human Mage and Orc Warrior. WoW's intro also began a tradition of Blizzard neglecting to include Gnomes in its intro cinematics. |
