It's terrifying for the Humans, and we get multiple instances of Arthas reacting in fear to the Undead's forces. The Humans are used to fighting Orcs, but the Undead can raise their enemies from the grave to fight for them. The Undead are a brand new threat here, and the humans have never encountered anything like them before, so they are legitimately scared of this force that they don't understand. The Undead are threatening the Humans, specifically the citizens of Lordaeron, and so everything that Arthas does, to a point, he does to protect the people which he serves. His motivations are really noble and sympathetic too, which is what makes him a compelling character. It's really great because his motivations stay basically the same the whole time, but his methods change, until he ends the story in a totally different place than he started. He has a really distinct character arc that occurs gradually over the course of the campaign.
But, when his people are threatened by a new enemy, the undead Scourge, Arthas is pushed to make harder and harder choices that lead him down a dark path. He's the golden boy, trained to do good and destined to be great. The Human campaign focuses on Prince Arthas, who is a paladin and heir to the throne of Lordaeron.
The main one being that it's a really great character story. This is the story of Arthas' fall from grace. Especially the first Human campaign, The Scourge of Lordaeron.
So I recently replayed WarCraft 3 just for kicks, and damn, the campaign is excellent.
