Story of Arius is actually an older machinima that Sphexius only recently decided to upload to YouTube. It's a fairly basic story that explains how Arius became undead. (You know, there was a war. He died, came back. As you do.)
The animation in this video was actually very good. I think the graphics could easily support a longer, more detailed story. The subtitles desperately need a copy editor, but we can look past that, since the video wasn't intended originally for wide distribution. Ultimately, Story of Arius is decent but begs for future development. Interested in the wide world of machinima? We have new movies every weekday here on WoW Moviewatch! Have suggestions for machinima we ought to feature? Toss us an email at moviewatch@wowinsider.com.
"we we're soon attacked by the orcs" "but there we're still hundreds"
Please, if you're going to put all of that effort into creating, voicing, editing, and subtitling a machinima, **you owe it to yourself** to have someone look over the text for this kind of mistake.
Unless it involves him doing something interesting. Which would mean not licking Sylvanas' boots and fapping over her like every other forsaken, and if that vengeance would actually include something meaningful, instead of suddenly going "rawr for the horde" for no real good reason, then I'm already bored as all heck. Also, if his family is still in his heart and all, why'd he join the horde? The forsaken are supposed to have the choice whether to join or to take off on their own. Would have been more interesting and fitting the character he's laid out if he'd have took off on his own.

I'm skeptical of how this will turn out.
