WoW Moviewatch: Silent Wind
Aug 19th, 2008
My only complaint is that the machinima is far too short to thoroughly enjoy. I wouldn't mind seeing a series born out of this video. WoW is seriously lacking in the horror department!

FIRST....one to watch this movie and feel the need to comment, I agree whole-heartily wow needs some more scary elements, but i guess its heart to incorporate in a mmo where you cant walk 20 yards with out seeing another character. (its funny because i said first and it lead in to what i was saying : p)

It's funny because you typed "heart" when you really meant "hard."

I dunno about you, but when I'm doing some quest or grinding something, I know I cringe when I hear the sound of a cloaked person nearby. Or the sting of mana burn spam...
I think WoW is scary enough.

You can't make WoW scary. It's impossible. Even tho I dont usually like horror movies cause, well, i dont like to scare myself, this is nothing.. you've seen all the places and you know how the mobs work etc. Impossible.

That was a little creepy, but I've had silent wind that was much scarier than that.
Just sayin'.

Does a great job of adopting Silent Hill's visual and auditory style to capture the atmosphere.
Would definitely like to see more! Both because this video is too short to really build up a good scare and because I want to see this machinimator continue to develop her talent and ability to evoke fear. This feels like only the tip of the iceberg of what could be done. (You know, the non-Warlock kind.)
