the one thing blizzard foregot

[rubybeam]

were all excited because of the spoilers and leaks and a bit of the trailer..but why was the trailer not a chinematic like the burning crusade and wrath, wonder what i mean

burning crusade: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lp5XsILypYQ

wrath of the lich king: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEm3mNpd8LI

cataclysum: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llMIDqFbsnE

it's a gamerplay trailer not a cinematic I mean blizz could have made us a nice trialer serously it would amazing to see a chinematic with deathwing all gameplay trailers are for friggen raiding
i'm done my rant now you can complain if you want but I still don't see the point of making a gameplay trailer for the expansion when the others are all chinematics.........

[Saturo]

They released gameplay trailers for the previous expansions and vanilla, as well as cinematic ones. The oneshown on TV and such will come soon.

[Bulletdance]

They might be saving it til later,but that is a really good point. And if they don't make them how will the Russian figure skaters sell their shaving cream?! (referring to that one guy who made a commercial out of the wrath trailer.)

[Sarayana]

Bullet, I require a video. Please and thanks.

I believe they have edited it somewhat to make it less blatant...still I hope he gets eaten by a Devilsuar.

O_O

Uhm.

If that's less blatant, I'd hate to see the original ad. *facepalm*

[Vephriel]

The cinematic for Cataclysm will come out, it's not something they put out too far in advance. There isn't even a release date on the game yet and Beta's still in progress.

We'll see the cinematic trailer closer to release.

[Kaellan]

Maybe it will be released at Blizzcon.

[Vephriel]

Maybe it will be released at Blizzcon.

*nods* I'd say there's very good odds of it premiering there.

[Agravaine]

Indeed. Remember how BC's cinematic was premiered at Spike VGA 2006? That was 1 month before the release of BC. And the making of featurette said it was so rushed, some scenes had 2D backgrounds (instead of the 3D backgrounds they'd have preferred).

Lich King's cinematic was much more refined and was made available 3 months before that expansion's release, at Blizzcon.

So the odds are in favor of the Cataclysm cinematic being revealed at Blizzcon, although I don't believe Cataclysm will be released 3 months after that

Wow, I laughed. Maybe I'm just weird, but to me that was both awesome and /facepalm-inducing at the same time. It's like blasphemy, but epic blasphemy. I'm into weird stuff like this, I guess.

[cowmuflage]

Yeah gameplay trailers allways come out first as they tend to get more people excited for the game.

[Lazuly]

but why was the trailer not a chinematic like the burning crusade and wrath

The cinematic will be unveiled at BlizzCon, like it always is. Blizzard didn't 'forget' anything.

[Agravaine]

Perhaps, but it isn't always. The cinematic for BC was not.

[Siliverin]
