Nobbel: War Within Alpha - First Impressions 

4:31 ngl that’s a brilliant move in Xal’atath’s part. I mean, did we really expect the city to go unscathed considering it’s our main place to launch assaults in our war against the Legion. Khadgar was also a major player in winning the war, the Harbingers knows this-saw it firsthand.

Nobbel: "Here is what i think 🙂" Nobbel: "Dalaran gets FUCKED, Say bye to dalaran, shit get gets rekt"

I THOUGHT YOU SAID IT WAS NOTHING???

I'm fine with losing characters, however I'll be shocked if Khadgar didnt turn into a force ghost.

damn....i may honestly come back to wow for these next few expansions

was not expecting my softy lore nobble to start cursing all of a sudden

Oh looks like they are pulling a Legion with the start of the expansion like with how Varian got killed going to kill off Khadgar, will be sad to see Khadgar go but will keep my attention story wise and be memorable, just hope his death cinematic is epic and by looks of it it will be

I'm simultaneously excited to see Dwarves in the spotlight compared to the usual humans, elves, and orcs, but also apprehensive because the devs have still been saying Anduin and Alleria are the main characters of the expansion at every opportunity.

0:32 nice Warband feature going full campfire Diablo 2 style 🔥

If Khadgar gets killed off it will be as bad as how they killed off Tirion Fordring.

Can you do a lore video on Khadgar highlighting his backstory, heroics and some of his comedy? Might help new players understand the significance of his character and maybe Dalaran as a whole.

When I saw the trailer for The War Within, I was pumped as heel for the expansion, now I'm even MORE pumped watching this! OMG I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for not putting spoilers in title. Professionalism is much appreciated.

Is it just me, or does it bother anyone else that when you wear a helm, your character essentially goes bald, no matter what? It's the one of the few things I've ALWAYS hated about this game. Like if your character has long hair or anything hanging down, why don't they just clip the top of the hair off, and allow the rest to just hang down normally from underneath the helms??

Let's take a moment for Khadgar could mean they're waiting for him to recover from something, "let's observe a moment" would sound more definite.

The details on the whole Dalaran and Khadgar situation has to be epic and has to have depth. I really didn’t like how excited you were about it and I still kinda don’t at all… I have too many fond memories of that place… so many hours of my youth spent there for it to be destroyed

I hope they explain better why Magni can't communicate with Azeroth clearly. I don't want another Shadowlands where we have to fill in the lore with our own theories.

One thing he did ask during the Q&A, "When the fk are they going to bring Archaeology back?"

Gonna do my best to avoid spoilers this expansion but looking forward to coming back to the video!

Khadgar dying makes sense. When he went to the Shadowlands he seemed at peace. Man has been a fighter his entire life and he’s tired 🥹

If we use our real accounts at this stage that will cause who knows how much havock everyware and that will take mounths if not years to fully fix. Even more so when its a alpha/beta phase.

Well, it’s certainly one heck of a way to start an expansion. Right now I’m not really sure how I feel about it, will have to give it some thought.

the most traumatizing thing about this video is seeing Nobbel react to it on twitch and see he has it set to LIGHT MODE D: THE HORROR!

Another Night Elf causing problems? Good grief give the Trolls some love

I would love an ability where you can summon all your alts to help you. Obviously this would be on quite a timer but still...with AI helping now....

Sounds like they're going for a legion esc start for the expansion which is night makes the expansion feel high stakes which is nice to see.

I hate dynamic flying wish they would let those of us that have issues with it to just do regular flying. It is so hard for me it takes twice as long for me to get to the same place as regular flying.

is this the part of the alpha they said we were not allowed to see ? b.c alpha you start on the isle and dalaran is well destroyed. that and i hope vereesa's sons survived

They really turned manduin into Methduin with that model

Hmm, I'm getting strong BfA vibes somehow and the Delves really remind me of Thorgast... not quiet sure what to think of it. Let's wait it out.

Do you know the High elves' opinion about Alleria since she is so deeply connected to the void?

Khadgar dying right away like that is... Not good imo. Seems out of left field a bit. Hopefully we get some context as to why he would fall like that, because I doubt he'd do it so easily ala Tyrion, but hopefully emotionally meaningful ala Rhonin

I'll never believe Khadgar is actually dead. Or at least, he's about as dead as Illidan was at the end of TBC. Or as dead as Medivh is. Or as dead as Guldan was. Or as dead as everyone we met in the Shadowlands. Or as dead as Sindragosa is. Or maybe as dead as Vol'jin and Varian.

Has the Lord of Ravens turned the key yet or we did that and I missed it? It really bugs me that I have to wait untill summer to see what exactly happened, especially for Khadgar.

I'm pretty sure the delves will go up to level 12 (nothing past 8 gives gear its just like a personal challenge thing)

People say the delves are too easy, but I think it's cause everyone is geared with end-of-expansion gear. I bet when you're lvl 79 with crap leveling gear the delves will be hard.

DADGHAR NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

imagine if khadgar put everyone in a bubble-

Obviously we don't know the exact details of how Dalaran was spaghettified; but "if" Xal'atath and the nerubians were responsible for doing so....... is it possible that same technique or spell or weapon was also available to the Black Empire long in the past.... for attacking anything floating above Azeroth? And if so, could that be how the large yellow glowing Crystal in Hallowfall ended up there embedded under the surface thousands of years ago? What if there was a large crystalline Holy Naaru type spaceship which had come to Azeroth back during the Black Empire to investigate, and maybe the Nerubians of that ancient time period also attacked it (with whatever spell or technique or weapon we don't see until the expansion) and caused it to break apart into pieces, where some of those pieces crashed into the soil at different spots on Azeroth. One of such pieces could be the large Crystal in Hallowfall. Then I would throw an even deeper "what if...." following from the above. What if some of those other Holy crystal pieces that fell and buried themselves were discovered later on, when the Titans arrived on Azeroth; and the Titans built entire facilities around those Holy Crystals, and those facilities had the capability to activate the Holy Crystals to cause a holy laser beam that can produce Reorigination and/or zap an Old God that gets imprisoned within those facilities? And yes, those facilities would be places like Ulduar and Uldir and Uldum and Uldaz. We never did get an explanation for why Reorigination beams are Holy Light magic and how the Titans were able to use that if they are so focused on arcane. And yes, the reorigination beams are confirmed in game to be Holy magic, by the relics from Legion that we put into our artifact weapons. The Holy Relic item that drops from Argus is called Reorigination Spark. Maybe the crystal at Hallowfall happens to be one which the Titans had not discovered yet, or maybe knew about but didn't get around to creating a facility there because they got busy arguing with Sargeras.

Nobbel: This is a secret, we did not need to know... Nobbel: DALARAN IS @@!#!@#@!#! gahahahaha

First? 😮 The whole storyline makes me want to start WoW again, couldn't really get into anything long term since Legion

Dont worrie about dadgar. We simply pick him up at the afterlife since we now can go there :P

I know nothing about Alleria Windrunner, but it seems that she will be important. I saw you made a video about her 6 years ago, is there some lore inbetween then and now that is important?

for past stories... they should just make a 7 min cinematic telling the stories for people to catch up

People already disrespecting khadgar for his sacrifice is wild

3:39 I hope... we will relive the most evil quest ever AMBERSEEDS!

Why do I have a feeling this is connected to Meryl Felstorm and the mage order hall campaign?

i was thinking either dalaran gets back to the grount or the tower if Kharazan gets to be the new dalaran i wonder if the tower gets renewed

Uhm just started the video, but nontherless... Wooohooooo!!!

Memberberries!? Don't eat the memberberries!

So what you are saying is that the evil plans of the gnomes is reaching it's final stage?

Delves - Brann New Content.

sandstone drake is now DRAGONRIDING???? BRUH

Would love a deep dive video into anduin from kid as he is now. Not sure if you have already done it?

What a great first impression. You’re my favorite WoW content creator so to hear an overall optimistic review of what’s coming is really exciting. Thanks for the great content Nob 🫡

There’s no way dadgar is actually dead.

Waifu Knaifu is back 😮❤

Oh yea... "We needed some action for start great!" I think we had another big city destroyed before an expansion but did not do so great. Lot of big talk we allready heared on major flops

As much as I love Khadgar I can't help but think it's payback for that awful Shattrath quest when you had to follow his elemental servant thing around.

So they didn't update the way they are delivery the story? Sounds bad.

I hope they don't just kill Khadgar this unceremoniously. It would feel... really cheap.

Was Vereesa anywhere after the destruction of Dalaran? We can see that the Silver Covenant is there.

So...im holding out hope that this city doesnt get completely nuked and that we just see a part of it being nuked due to *Spoiler* but if it does get to that point...gods damn it...another city...LOST?! like...im so unphased by it at this point.

I'm really happy that after all these years a nerubian raid will be a thing! Ever since the scrapped one in WOTLK it felt like a part of their story was not done justice

Was that a crab filter?

Diablo style character screen

Hey, could I get a (as brief as you'd like) spoiler-free review of the story so far?

Dalaran being destroyed is one heck of a way to go for this expansion.

what are "dead elves"?

So... chaos?

Should new players just play through BFA, Dragonflight, then right into War Within?

Khadgar dead is not a good start to an expansion to me.

Dalaran will finally have high fps 🥹

K...K...KHADGAR IS GONNA DIE?????????

DAYYYYUUUUMMM

I need to catch up on dragonflight. I was hyped but stopped playing the once i got to the plains. The cute factor of the expansion just didnt work for me.

I thought they would kill velen

My boy Khadgar… 😞

DALARAN NNNNOOOOO!!!!!!

If they kill Khadgar and Dallaran im uninstalling.

wowzers

7:40 You can say its a.....Brann new content. You can throw tomatos now.

There's 10 levels

Spoilers FFS! Came here for an actual general overview, not for spoilers, even if it’s just about the beginning of the expansion.

Damn, our boy Anduin has been balding, time has not been kind that's for sure

More stuff that is account wide?! :O Me who does everything on one character :|

Damn skibilands killed me interest in the game but and dragonforce but in reverse summary made me turn into a undead man. So i hope they threw the old writing team into the maw and idk,make them watch slyvanus get shot.

I guess that makes sense about Khadgar. Gotta set the threat level and also get the npcs that could solve our problems for us out of the picture. Plus that dude is super annoying.

It's not wow unless there's the obligatory poop quest.

Not sure I'll come into the new xpac since they are killing khadghar, first tirion then varian, now khadgar, nooo, not good, i actually cried when tirion died and varian too, to lose such a main character doesn't make me want to play more, even losing yesera was not good, i see the point but still and now all dragons are together as they should be but still not liking it so far, maybe it will change and ill play but as it is so far nah...not liking it at all.

Pathfinder, right.... And destroying the city which was the main hub during the time with my fondest memory of wow... Yeah no thanks

Ah yes, Killing off our favorite characters. Not Giving older fan favorites the sendoff they truly deserve. Modern WoW is a joke lmao. Thanks for the vid though

Seems like rinse/recycle/repeat. I’ll stay tuned though.

I love that the people, namely roleplayers, who host server wide events tailored to mages, who’d be most impacted by the events are currently partying it up meme style. 😂

Where is my game of Hairy Dudes Slapping each other and making out, hate blizzard so much right now.

Noooooooooooo Khadgar dead??? Noooo who is gonna make dad jokes now? This is actually sad.

Didn't they learn that blowing up major cities at the start of an expansion is not a good move. Also how are you going to kill Khadgar as a part of a intro questline, like it's literally fucking Khadgar, this better be a Xal' Atath vision or something

sylvanas is still a think after all what she does.wow metzen is such a pussy what a wimb

why is the log in screen looks like a worse version of Diablo 2 character selection

im gonna avoid all fucking wow lore until the release of this. its like holding on a nut, but if i can last in november, i can last wow lore almost 1 year.
