The Frozen Throne Ending Cinematic Warcraft III Reforged 8K 60 FPS (Remastered with ML AI) 

When Upscale did a better job alone than the entire Warcraft 3 Reforged team.......RIP Blizzard

Nice quality man, thanks

MANNOROTH PLEASSSSSSE also check out what I did with this scene from Reforged if you're interested. Would be cool to do this with an upscaled version. I could just swap it over and dub it over your version and we could make something neat I think. All the same, I'd love to see a mannoroth upscale from Reforged. I'd die happy! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kmaeF6W2rPI.html

It's amazing when after all of these years, this ending still gives me the chills and sends me right back on the feelz train I received when I was so young. I miss the old blizzard, amazing job BTW!

The upscaled shot of Arthas on the throne looks pretty untextured. I guess keeping it blurred benefited this cinematic after all.

That's amazing. Sad a billion dollar company like Activision blizzard can't (wouldn't) do this quality.

You did it better than Blizzard....

I miss Ner'zhul. People didn't seem to realize, but the OG Lich King was actually subtle. The only non undead/demon character who knew about him was Illidan, and only after he was manipulated. He was the final key to defeating the Legion, by manipulating Illidan to remove the skull of Gul'dan, and (more importantly) kill Tichondrious, who was the most paranoid and intelligent of the Dreadlords. From there he subtly sabotaged the Legion's efforts through their own minions, giving the other races a chance on Mount Hyjal. He even pulled out of Kalimdor after the Legion's defeat because he had no interest over there, leaving the Night Elves and Orcs no real reason to care about the undead after their victory. In TFT he was mostly just trying to hold his forces together as Kil'jaeden (through Illidan) continued to try and kill him. Arthas was his ace in the hole and freedom (Again, subtly. Nobody knew or cared about Arthas outside of the undead cast). In WotLK he just becomes a big evil bad guy who wants to kill all life... because reasons... And now it's revealed that it wasn't Arthas or Ner'zhul all along, and just some new big evil bad guy who wants to kill all life... WoW's story isn't just bad, it's lame. I doubt we'll see Ner'zhul again, maybe a cameo at best. He definitely won't be doing anything important if he ever does show up.

This is the true ending of Warcraft. Don't get me wrong, I really do love WoW up to Wrath of the Lich King, and after that the rest of the expansions are pretty decent aswell (especially the music and art), but to me WoW as a game is basically fanfiction with self-insert characters (the player controlled characters) about a time that COULD have been, if Arthas didn't become the Lich King and eventually conquered the world.

I hate when Blizzard released the Shadowland CG, I know something is off, and it's all about aesthetics and atmosphere. I hate when I see Sylvanas fight Bolvar my first reaction is "wow she's like magically lvl up to beat the Lich King, she capped". I hate nowadays you need to pull out a fancy fight scene to show how your product is attractive. Our world is becoming shitter every second, and good times never last.

The zoom out where you see Arthas sitting on The Frozen Throne gives me chills to this day. Warcraft 3 and the build up to this scene plus WoW vanilla through WotLK were Blizzard at it's finest. Back when they could still tell a story. Best villain of the franchise too in my opinion, precisely because in spite of all his power whether as Paladin or Lich King. He got to where he was precisely because of being a human with human faults.

I cant believe this... a single person againts a company. Im spechless, congratulations. pleeeeeaaaase... do the cinematic of the destruction of dalaran.

I was kinda pissed off when they killed of Arthas in WoW instead of a WC3 sequel but with the way Blizzard is going nowadays I don't really give a dren about WC4.

It looks very good, but some parts of it arguable look better with lower fidelity.

Pure enthusiasm vs large company with lots of resources. And guess who did a better job? Blizzard should hire people like you.

blizard 1080p KEKW you 8 k KEKW

This just makes me sad that I'll never see that end scene in the UI when I load up the game.

2:20 This is real last scene that Jon Snow deserve.

When you wear glasses/When you forgot it

Goddammit Blizzard ... Hire this man! This is what I expected from REFORGED

At 2:14 the 7.1 headset rarely goes shaking from bass, but this is one exception, magnificent work Upscale! My ultimate favorite video game ending!

There was a time when this was the best graphics the world had ever seen.

It's so beautiful to finally enjoy a truly clear image.

O' cher tunnal bellinus.. O' ros lavel mu.. Lor'na rasjas Thanu nal.. Seh, thu erne nu.. Ren'no..

Omg it's here thank you Glorious

it can't be more annoying that blizzard didnt make new cinematics ….

How Game of Thrones really ended. Jon took the frozen throne.

Could you do the intro to The Legend of the Dragoon? That game has a special place in my heart

Chill down the spine. How could actiblizz dare to ruin this char/storyline with their retconning is beyond me.

Bruh when Ner’zhul says his line it always gives me chills

So does the ML AI (program) have to scan the entire video and then determine what changes it can/will make and re-render? How long does the re-rendering take and what program do you use? It looks glorious, and I guess the main bottleneck to increase the quality further is textures? Great work.

around 15 years ago I use that song when Arthas sit on the frozen throne as my ringtone. I still love the song😁

To this day with Shadow lands I still think they did Arthas wrong RIP young prince you'll be missed by many.

YES.... YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!

The upscale is far more crisp but oversharpened and it did muddy a lot of granularity in the background. Pros and cons. This cinematic is one of the saddest things now because it really was the end of an era. My whole WC3 community broke up after WoW, going to different servers to play. And Blizz did Arthas very dirty after Wrath of the Lich King. Things will never be the same, and I'll always wonder what could have been.

Watching this as kid was epic and then continue the journey in World of Warcraft.

My eyes hurt when i see the blizzard reforged version.

When he was sitting on the throne what was the song playing

Can you upload this somewhere like Dropbox for example so I could download it in it's maximum quality ? I don't think there is any RU-vid Downloader out there that can download videos in 8K resolution.

'8K' yet the video's highest quality is 1080 🤔 (all jokes aside, these are all amazing. I am flabbergasted at how you do this. You earned a new sub)

Tbh, upscaled it shows the lack of detail in the original, and emphasizes it - introduces aliasing in places, lack of detail in textures is more apparent (icicles, arthas's armour when he's climbing the stairs, etc.)

The definition of "I won but at what cost."

Arthas vs Illidan! Plsssssss!!!

The comparison reforged vs upscale is just making me feel sad. On the other hand you did really amazing job.

And they managed to fuck all of this up

This looks way more clear than Warcraft reforged it's amazing

Nerzhul: "Now, we are one!" Arthas: "Well yes, but actually no. Now get out of my crown, fucker"

Сделайте пожалуйста файлом это, чтобы можно было впихнуть в Warcraft 3 Classic

Masterfully done. This is what i paid for. Again. And this cinematic made me so hyped for a Warcraft IV... instead we got this money milking machine named WoW.

whats the point of becoming lichking?

Ya did it way better! And for those who weren't forced to learn Latin. The song in the end of this basically laments "Long live the king. May his reign last forever"

00:45 damn he looks kinda tired from walking all those stairs with armor

Снова плакать в конце от этой шедевральной музыки..

Just thank you!

Great!!!

This is now a blizzard property

Beautiful. Nice work, Upscale. I will say it a 1000 times, Nerzhul is still the best WC antagonist I have ever srrn. If only Arthas would have joined forces equally... Anyway...

Well, I guess it looks good on a phone, oh wait we don't have phones

The "Now we are one" always just gets me goosebumps all over my body... jesus this was so epic

2:23 yknow what makes me sad about this scene, its a tragedy of Arthas that aligned very well with the Blizzard company. This is literally the last scene we got before Warcraft goes downhill for their shitty plot For me, this my truly canon ending. The bad guys won

What are the musics played throughout this cinematic? They resembles Howard Shore's LOTR scoring.

Arthas is Blizzard, Ner'zhul is Activision, and the devs were predicting their own downfall into villainy Ha!

To that you begin the game as a standard hero to end like this. 3.07 It end like the story of Arthas Menetil, in a tragedy.

太好了 坐等开头人族兽族群殴的那段！！

This Ending song Would be perfect for game of thrones Ending when the dragon burns the throne and at the end no one sits in it

blizzard are professionals among amateurs

soy tan cabron que si quieren consigan una copia original del juego del 2003 y automaticamente les saldra el soplido al final asi no quieran

honestly blizzard should have just out source this to you. wc3 refunded looked like trash

Love the intro but were is the disc/ mermoty stick

Даже лучше чем в Рифордж! 🔥👍

Donde está el boton para darle 1000 likes ???

This is the last nail in the lid of the Blizzard coffin

So impressive what you did with the old cinematic. thank you por share it.

This looks crazy good, holy shit

Awesome. Goodbye Blizzard

Ohhhh myyyyyyGoooooood!!!

Все равно старый лучше.

Так появился Саурон))

Refunded!!! Rip Blizzard 🥶

How did you make this so clear? I bow to you

My 3770k can't handle the 8k version of this video...time to upgrade!

Excellent work. Blizzard it should be a shame.. shame....

Tell them only that Warcraft reforged is dead... *And that Blizzard Entertainment died with it*

Warcraft Cinematic Gameplay Storyline actually need all new from the last 25yrs while maintaining all the characters

Still coming back to this and boy do I miss the old Blizzard really miss those guys.

1:30 Crazy sound effect. RIP BLIZZARD.

Original is look more make sense than upscale but good work!

arthas, the greatest tragedy story

Thank you for doing what blizzard didn't...

so blizzard really didn't pay effort in the ww3 reforged

LEZZ GOOOO

looks pretty bad

Warcry Of Blizzard

soy parte del war 3 para siempre no les da envidia?

reflections are rough in places but its good

omg its so ugly

Lich King chose Arthas cause the helmet fits him

Well that's sad! But really good job.

i like how they didn't really mess w/ the aesthetics of this just gave it a polish.

We wanted all of this remasterd and what we got was not the thing we wanted
