  1. Such a great story to tell I hope you all enjoy it! This lore behind this video is fantastic but it was a nightmare to put together, I tried to incorporate more and more modelling to tell the story and my pc simply cannot handle it, this was finally finished 8 minutes before I was leaving for the airport so didn’t have as much time as I hoped to check over it. We are currently working on upgrading some of the hardware used to create these tales, at the moment they are not edited by a frame to frame method instead of a live feed due to hardware capabilities so let me know if there are any issues with it down below! Enjoy! 🎉

  2. Some nice lore here, I always liked Desolace. I'd really love to see a good tribe of centaur as an allied race. Probably will never happen, but I think a little Mongolian type city would be a really fun addition to Kalimdor

  3. Okay, so when I was still a super noob, I'm talking like 6 months before BC came out, I was leveling my first character, a human Warlock. Somehow I ended up in Desolace at level 30, I'm not sure what I was doing at that time. I remember just immediately falling in love with the zone, ALTHOUGH is scared the heck out of me. I remember this one girl in my guild who was a good friend (also a warlock and taught me a lot about the class/game) messaged me and asked why the heck I was in Desolace. I explained how I just kinda ended up there and liked the zone enough to explore, but I was getting my ass kicked. She ended up making the journey out there and spent some time grinding naga with me. One of my earliest WoW memories that really stands out. Love Desolace. Such a strange place.
