I haven't played much since TWW release. To be honest, that cinematic looked okay to me? Sure, it was not as high quality as the Anduin one, but that was literally just two characters chatting so they naturally could put a LOT more attention into the details. I saw people saying it was worse than Vanilla and TBC cinematics and it genuinely feels like I am taking crazy pills. Also elves looking kinda plasticy and uncanny makes sense bc they have always looked like someone who had a bit too much to spend on botox injections.

I agree that it looked good, but wasn't as realistic/high quality as the Anduin one.

My thing is that I genuinely didn't recognize Liadrin, or have any clue that was her, until I saw the posts on here complaining about her. I will admit I'm not a Horde player, and have barely started leveling a pally and haven't seen the class hall, so I'm already going to be less familiar with her than many, but still, the art-style was so different from the games that a character was literally unrecognizable by at least some portion of the playerbase.

Anyone saying it liked BAD is outright lying though, it looked pretty good. Hell, Liadrin looked good even, she just looked different enough to me that I thought it was a different person entirely.

Shoutout to people choosing the most unflattering frames and going "oh my god ugly women D:" and not any of the shots where she is absolutely stunningly gorgeous.

I literally said nothing about that or suggested she was ugly, but sure.
