brought significant changes—and some disappointment—to these scenes:
: These high-fidelity, movie-quality sequences served as the "bookends" for each campaign. Created by a specialized team at Blizzard, they featured advanced lighting and particle effects that still hold up decades later.
(Bonus: Go rewatch “Arthas, son of Terenas… betrayed by his own prince.” Still hits.)
: Many fans were disappointed when a "cinematic" style shown at BlizzCon 2018 (featuring heavy facial animation) was scaled back for the final release.
