wow Battle for Azeroth Login Screen

[Stan 5,020]

With Battle for Azeroth just two months away, Blizzard has updated the old Legion login screen with a new one in this week's Beta Build 26871.

The background is comprised of a sunlit sky and birds flying over the walls of Lordaeron, while in the forefront, we see various artifacts that solidify Battle for Azeroth's main theme -- the upcoming faction conflict.

The main title music has been previewed earlier and you can listen to the whole track below.

With every expansion, our musical mages reach deep down into their souls and summon a tableau of sound to accompany your next adventure. Building upon a variety of musical themes from World of Warcraft over the years, composer Glenn Stafford has infused his magic into the new main title for Battle for Azeroth, “Before the Storm.” Sit back, relax, and let the music carry you into the heart of Azeroth.

“Before the Storm” was composed and arranged by Glenn Stafford; features additional music by Neal Acree, Sam Cardon, Clint Bajakian, and David Arkenstone; and includes classic World of Warcraft themes by Jason Hayes.

I'm just expecting Deathwing to fly down and crush two towers with its front claws. For those that need a reminder (Hey, it's been 8 years already!)

I like this login screen. SHows what it's all about without even having to show characters. ?

Right? I was actually thinking they would do an all out war kind of login screen but this is amazing!

Well... I hoped to have something like Burning of Teldrassil for Ali and Battle for Lordaeron for Horde... It would be cool to have two different login screens, right ? 

Don't get me wrong, this screen ain't bad, i just wanted to share my idea :)

First impression is that I like it - Warcraft RTS theme overdose - no regrets.
Second impression is that the art may take up too much space on that screen compared to the rendered environment. I mean in expansions so far the login screen always centered around somethig animated with the actual game engine's graphics and the art only provided the background, but now it's the other way around. 2 years from now...that weapon and helm still life may feel low-res.

Foreground art is too low rez. Way too much 2D art compared to rendered models. 2nd worst login screen next to Mists. It looks like fan art - surprised in-house art department is good with this.
