May we never forget the true story of Arthas.
Check out my Warcraft movie review ---> https://youtu.be/E_DumxK8pSI

"Father, is it over?"
"No, my son, the raid resets next week."

Actually, lich kings motive was very clear. In WotLK his goal was not to just be the sole Master, it was to create an army strong enough to defend Azeroth from the Burning Legion. That was both nerzhuls objective,  and arthas objective in his Frozen throne campaign. He deemed the mortal races not strong enough, so thought an immortal army was the only way to keep the planet safe, albeit in undeath.

Arthas is so hard to place. I couldn’t tell if he was a slave to the Lich King’s will, or if he had fallen so far as to embrace his new evil identity, whether had personal goals or not. It’s really hard to tell how much agency he has.

The Lich King's ultimate plan in WotLK was a really ingenious one. He kept laying challenges at the Alliance and Horde to make them stronger and helped them birth a force that's ultimate goal was to storm Icecrown Citadel and be strong enough to kill himself. But the twist was that using Frostmourne, he could take their souls and make them into Death Knights serving him, which would have immediately turned the war that he was kind of losing on purpose around as he would control the most powerful force of Azeroth.
If Tirion had no broken free from the ice and shattered Frostmourne then and there, The Lich King would've won.

24:30 "Illidan had been imprisoned for being a rascal." As someone who knows his entire story intimately, that description is hilarious lol

All of WC3 are "one of the best cinematics ever."

Arthas deserves to have his story told in series of Warcraft movies. I don't think I actually want it to be made so I can continue to imagine just how incredible it could be.

Arthas was one of those villains so well-written and badass that you kinda wanted them to win. At least in my case it was

Can't believe the Jailer organized all this... (Still can't forgive blizzard for ruining all the old lore)

I'm so relieved you used the OG version instead of WC3 Reforged

I think Kelthuzad should probably get one next. Much less complex than Arthas, but much more emblematic of the Scourge and villainy in general, being an affable fiend.

“No king rules forever” every time I hear the music or Arthas’ father speaking I get chills.

I like the "friendship" that Arthas and KT have, they seem like two evil lords that have the same enemies in common and are in some way or another forced to fight as allies but end up having a much cooler relationship

From what I understand, Arthas the Death Knight took most of the control, he was always influenced by his old self and Ner'zhul. I believe it is mentioned somewhere that Arthas actually held back the full might of Scourge. While his old self could never fully stop or control the Lich King, he sort of manipulated him into effectively ending his reign, and that's his old self finally taking control in his final moments with the helm gone and Frostmourne shattered.

I think Nerzul knew something was up from the start. He just pretended he didn't to preserve his hypocritical sense of honor. But Kiljaden was offering power and Nerzhul wanted that. He just didn't want to be a servant to anyone. The Burning Legion's secret weapon: seek out the powerful and offer them more power. Everyone with power has a lust for more, so even the ones who understand it's cost can't resist the lure.

Ah hell yeah we get a long villianpedia today boys

I think it's very interesting Nerzhul speaks to Arthas 13:35 in Arthas's own voice.
Having your own voice echo thoughts in your head would make you believe they were your own I'd imagine. Just more of the deception

I can't understand why Blizzard doesn't want to honor this timeless villain's legacy? People outside of WoW's sphere even know about him. Great video, I really dig Arthas and everything he is.

Its as if temperature in my room have gotten colder from all the blue tones
