Total Escapism vol. 5 is a gorgeous 15-minute romp through the world of Azeroth. You not only get to see some astounding views of places and landmarks in the World of Warcraft, but you'll see some high-quality footage of characters casting spells and living in the game.
Really, though, talking about the subject material of this video does it a disservice. The point isn't the literal narration of what's happening on the screen; instead, the point is to watch the beautiful animation and astounding graphics. It's an experience more than a story, and it's one the Baron has executed marvelously.

Unlimited Escapism volume 5 was a major letdown.
It was extremely disappointing and very, very bland compared to the previous 5 UE videos.
There were no visual effects and no content from other games mixed in. It's certainly not what I've come to expect from the UE videos. It was 15 minutes of WoW gameplay with lots of slow/fast motion effects.
This really should not have been named Unlimited Escapism.
A very sad way to see the series end.

You probably take your machinima a little too seriously. Go read a book. A real one, without pictures.

As always the visuals are amazing. I watch it without the music though. I'll never enjoy that stuff. :)
Awesome work though. :D
