Reconfirming Warcraft 3 and World of Warcraft as animes

LunarTides · Post by **LunarTides** » Mon Aug 20, 2007 7:25 pm

I realize that Warcraft 3 and World of Warcraft don't fit under the category of anime and are confirmed as non-anime, but why is it that Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts are confirmed and Warcraft isn't? Those games are clearly at the same level as being called an anime as Warcraft is. The term amv is used loosely a lot especially with games, even though it stands for "Anime" Music Video. Regardless I think amv could also stand for Animation Music Video, which would cover both anime, games and any other form of moving picture. So I'm asking if Warcraft 3 and World Warcraft can be confirmed, so others like me can upload their videos of those games even though some people already uploaded their Warcraft videos before it was changed to non-anime.

Here are a few on the site that claim to have Warcraft footage in their videos

I know the first link has Warcraft in it, I downloaded it and watched it. These 2 people obviously uploaded their videos before Warcraft was changed to a non-anime.

Blizzard games are a far cry from the Final Fantasy games or Kingdom Hearts. It's not happening.

But please, feel free to try and argue. It's still not happening.

If Warcraft will not be confirmed as an anime, then for equity shouldn't all videos that include any footage of Warcraft be gotten rid of from this site? It wouldn't be fair to keep any trace of Warcraft footage already on this site if it isn't confirmed as an anime, and if others like myself can't upload our own Warcraft videos beyond this point in time.

It comes down simply to country of origin. Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts are Japanese, while Warcraft isn't. As to those other videos, I'm deleting them right after I finish typing this

This isn't a comparison of the game as a whole, this is a comparison of the cutscenes and cinematics within the game. The cutscenes have one common similarity and that is they are both 3d animation. What differs other than the actual content of the footage is where they were created, and it shouldn't matter where these scenes were made.
