WoW Moviewatch: The Craft of War: BLIND
WoW.com — ... Let's take a small break from the holiday festivities for something absolutely spectacular. Percula posted The Craft of War: BLIND on Vimeo, claiming that it's only the second creative work he's ever publically shared. I can't imagine what reams of work he must have privately, because I found this movie to be incredibly astounding. ...

WoW Vault - The Ultimate Resource — The Craft of War: BLIND [ 10 Comments [image] ] Print News | Category: World of Warcraft News - Vault Movies Here is an amazing short flim that percula posted over at Vimeo. The Rogue on Rogue battles, and the subsequent animation and skill required for a fan to pull something like this off, makes the entire movie one long jaw dropping event. The Craft of War: BLIND from percula . "Earlier this year I got pretty bored and decided to do something creative in my spare time. I've been wanting to do a fight scene for a while and decided to develop a story using World of Warcraft. Animation is what I do and ...

Why Roll Rogue? Because I Can!
Creeping... — The Craft of War: BLIND from percula on Vimeo     So I saw this on Skeleton Jack's blog and I had to post it over, if for no other reason than the fact that this is why I love the idea and the ability to play a Rogue. Running in, taking things out, and then making my exit. Everything I've ever wanted to do, but cannot do in real life for obvious reasons with detrimental consequences. Now I've just got to level, /sigh. And figure out why the embedding code isn't taking. Joy.... -Creep

Blind
WOWCAST BLOG — I haven't had much time to play WoW since I got back from visiting the folks for Christmas. I've been on this massive purging of my house. I'm currently on day three and about two tons of junk to give away. This is all stuff I've accumulated from pre-house days. I used to be a massive packrat. Now I'm all "tabula rasa". hehe. ...

This Is Video Will Leave You Stunned
The Troll Hunter — Stunned? Amazed? How about just Awesome? Normally I don't post twice in one day, but I came across a brand new WoW video that left me without words. I have seen some very good machinimas lately but the creator of the movie Blind, Perculahas, has taken WoW movies to a brand new level by creating animations instead, which means that we see characters and objects from the game doing things we never saw before. Simply amazing. ...

Percula reveals future of BLIND
WoW.com — Filed under: Analysis / Opinion, Machinima, News items, WoW Moviewatch If you didn't catch the Craft of War: BLIND when we featured it on Friday, now's a good time to check it out above. The release of this machinima has hit several WoW news and comment sites like a storm, even being featured on the front page of MMOChampion. But the real news is that Percula, the creator and animator of the movie, has issued a little more information about who he is, and where he comes from. According to Percula, the future of BLIND is ...

The Best Machinima of 2008
LagORama — I rarely just post a video here at the Lag, but this one deserves it. WowInsider is revisiting this first-time effort (which is incredibly hard to believe) from Percula, a laid-off game animator with one heck of a talent. I love machinima in all its forms, but this one takes the cake. I’ve seen some criticisms about it, but let’s face it…Percula kind of came out of the gate in first place here. Just take a look and judge for yourself: The Craft of War: BLIND from percula on Vimeo. It’s redundant (not to mention ...

Tuesday Morning Post: Blinded by the Light edition
WoW.com — Filed under: Analysis / Opinion, Realm Status, News items Have you seen Blind yet? Seriously. It's on the site, I swear. It's so good we posted it twice, even. Well, I guess three times, now. And seriously, guys. The music is fine. Awesome even. This is probably the most dynamic, well plotted, well choreographed WoW Movie to come across the desk here at WoW Insider, so even if you don't watch WoW videos, you are going to want to give this one a watch. Also, I just realized that the title "Blind" refers to the rogue skill, so that's cool ...

Video: The Craft of War: BLIND
Banana Shoulders — I don’t generally watch a lot of machinima, but this one’s just amazing. A professional animator has used the WoW models, textures and scenery to create a very cool little story - and one hell of a fight scene. It’s called ‘The Craft of War: BLIND’ by Percula. Watch it via the embed if you wish: The Craft of War: BLIND from percula on Vimeo. but I recommend viewing it in full size on Vimeo if you can. (Link via Binary Colors.)

World of Warcraft Podcast — Big News Of The Week Patch 3.0.8 To WoW Is Imminent Blizzard updated the patch notes for the next code change to the game yesterday, and it looks to us like we’re only a week or two away from seeing some useful, as well as some questionable changes to Azeroth, Outland and Northrend.

Blind has made me want to play Hide And Seek
WoW.com — Filed under: Analysis / Opinion, Odds and ends Everyone and their mother has seen Blind by Percula, right? If not, go ahead and watch it above. Better yet, go to the actual vimeo page and watch it in high definition. Then come back here for more Blind-goodness. Blindly satisfied? Great! It's been the #1 search topic on WoW Insider for a bit, so I know people must love it. The only complaint that folks have about the video is the sound can be rather rough at times. I have to admit that I think this as well (to some extent), however it's nothing that ...

Wherin I am swept up in the phenomenon
Big Bear Butt Blogger — It has been everywhere. I saw it linked and embedded from like 8 different places, each telling me how ‘oh so awesome’ it was. It felt like everywhere I looked, I saw someone saying “GO! GO NOW! YOU MUST GO! /gush” Yeah, I don’t know about anyone else, but if something gets overhyped, the fur on my neck hackles rises up and I get stubborn. “To hell with them, just for that I ain’t going to check it out. THAT’LL show ‘em! Pushy bastards.” Well, unless of course I’d already known about it and was looking forward to it, in which case everyone else is just agreeing ...
