Horribad music though.

Wow, I'm surprised at how versatile the WoW engine is.

I'm pretty sure the guy animated it himself and that wasn't the WoW Engine other then the backgrounds.

I don't get why people slam his music choice, I think it fits the video. It's not meant to have death metal or rap.

Probably the best machinima I've ever seen.

Best machinima I've seen, definitely -- but the music just doesn't fit. (Especially right when the track starts; it makes the whole situation -- the guards hunting the assassin -- seem comical.)

Well, in a way it DOES fit. Stormwind guards never seemed super competent to me >.>

Also, anyone know who the human rogue's supposed to be? I'm probably reading too much into it, but I'm betting it's Elling Trias in his youth.

I like the music. Even though when it started I thought this was going to be like a dance movie or something.

That was very impressive. And yeah, except for the very beginning I thought the music was appropriate (and I don't even care for that kind of music). I wonder if that qualifies as a "creative use of game mechanics"? They'll probably nerf it

I thought the rogue character was that Mathias Shaw guy, the rogue-type leader(?) of SI:7 but then I realised he had brownish hair, so probably not.

The music fits, but it's still horrid music.
It must be some kind of sci-fi, rogue ganking prot warriors? No way
