I remember as a kid, finishing the campaign in warcraft 3 the frozen throne. The cinematic was the most ominous thing I'd ever seen. The story gripped me. When wow was announced, my first thought was .. OMG.. the story continues with Arthas. What will happen? Will he be the first boss? He wasn't in vanilla. I ended up not playing after TBC. I never saw the Arthas fight. Just now, I'm watching this and everything came rushing back. The conclusion of the matter is so perfect. Hair raisingly good. I don't think anything like this has been done in video games since.
This was it. Right there in 2009-2010. Wrath was the greatest expansion and we finally went after the biggest bad in Warcraft. To kill Arthas was epic beyond epic and the competition between top guilds was cutthroat. The fact that I was in a hopelessly far behind yet very fun guild didn't make the encounter less awesome. I wore that title with pride let me tell ya. Yogg-Saron and Arthas stand lonely at the very top of greatest raid encounters and lore significance.
This was posted 11 years ago but it was released in 2006 or even earlier. That's when I finished school haha. He was extremely ahead of his time AT THAT TIME. I hope he's doing well :)
