WoW Moviewatch: The Burden of Consequence

By Michael Gray


Cody created The Burden of Consequence for the Blizzard 2010 machinima contest. It's essentially a dramatic retelling of the conflict between Garrosh and Thrall, with a guest appearance by Malorne.

I especially enjoyed the depiction of how the duel between Garrosh and Thrall would have gone. You definitely get the sense of the two orcs' power and the passion that drives them. The story fits pretty nicely inside existing lore, although I'm not certain at which point in the game's timeline this would fit.

Even if it doesn't tuck in perfectly, though, The Burden of Consequence has a nice, contemplative feel that conveys the overall sense of Horde honor.
