I watched the video, I definitely enjoy watching the retrospective, however, it really breezes through the games. I think I would more enjoy a retrospective that looks at the games and lore characters to give people a better idea of what has gone on throughout the titles. The videos hint that they are going to do this, but do not touch on any of this information, perhaps that will all be in the last video.

I'll have to watch this when I get home. Definitely like me some Warcraft. Though it seems kind of weird to me to have a retrospective on Warcraft. I mean, there have only been 4 games in the series, one of which everyone already knows about, two more are probably well known to any Warcraft fan, so really only the first game would be new information.
But I guess preaching to the choir is good too...

Definitely an awesome retrospective. Those cinematics from RoC and TFT were so friggin' epic lol. Can't wait for those 2+ hours of SC2 cinematics.
Lol glad they mentioned dota. Even though they only showed like two of the clips from an actual dota game WHILE talking about dota haha.

This Warcraft Retrospective is more like Blizzard Retrospective.

Yea, I felt that way, too. Still great, but I wish there was a more about the storyline of the games and how they tied together. There was a bit about the Frozen Throne into WoW, but I would have liked more.

Big fan of WarCraft, but I never got into WoW because you have to pay to play $15/month for one game. Also I don't like buying new computers for games. My laptop is a year old (maybe less) and it still only runs at like 15-20fps zoomed in.
