wow Four New Cinematics Coming in Patch 9.2

[Stan 5,020]

Blizzard added four encrypted cinematics to the game in this week's 9.2 build. 

All four cinematics are unfortunately encrypted, so we can't watch them yet. The only information available at this time is their file data ID and size.

Number	File Data ID	Size
1	4279692	78 MB
2	4279697	39 MB
3	4279702	12 MB
4	4279707	25 MB

I think the shortest one (12MB) will be used for a transition phase, maybe even during the Jailer fight. The longest one (78 MB) will be playing after we defeat the Jailer. That leaves us with two more cinematics. One of them will most likely play during the Week 1 Sepulcher raid finale after we defeat Anduin. The final one, I don't know.

Probably we defeat the Jailor, just as Pelagos and the covenant leaders channel a massive anima beam at the sepulcher which does something, causing a building to crumble and azeroth is saved.   Somehow

(please ignore the continued presence of the Giant Sword, azerite bleedout and whatever damage the Jailer just did, I'm sure it's not important).

I think that sword isn't going to do anything, it has been cleansed by depleting our artifacts' power, so it is now just a fancy giant sword.

Something, something, anima beam is possible. We might get assistance in some form.

Moments after we did that cleansing though, Magnii said it had bought some time only, we needed to gather azerite and heal her (and somehow deal with the giant sword too).     Then we got distracted by naga, mechagnomes, blood trolls, and some guy called N'zoth.     Then, we wandered off into the shadowlands because Sylvannas/Jailer ingeniously kidnapped our leaders for...err...reasons?    Leaving the sword still there.

On the plus side, if Sylvannas and the Jailer hadn't inexplicably kidnapped those guys, we never would have gone into the Shadowlands and all of reality would be checkmated by now (remember that the Jailer only learned of Anduins power during our escape, this was probably just a grudge thing on Sylvannas's part as the cinematic seemed to say).

It wouldn't surprise me if they forgot about it. There is a high possibility that it's going to remain ignored, simply because it doesn't fit the theme of next expansion. Admittedly, having something crazy happen while we were away could have been interesting. But people speculated the same about N'zoth patch, like he messed something up while we were fighting him or perhaps he faked his defeat etc. None of this turned out to be true.

If memory serves, they did state in the interview not so long ago that the Sword still has a part to play.

That said, where my cinematic of Kerrigan emerging as "Awakened Azeroth" and KAMEHAMEHAing the Jailer is at?
