I quit this game a couple months before cata released. I quit for SC2 btw so still a blizzard fanboy. My friend was over at his friend's house when he was playing on his pally and from what my friend saw I was right to quit. They gayed WoW up so much with this expansion. I saw the holy pally changes before I quit and I was like, oh fuck you blizzard, fuck you.
My favorite cinematic was the wotlk expansion. The vanilla and BC were cool but wotlk was just so in theme.

Why the hell cant they make their game more more difficult again... I mean the dungeon browser was a nice addition and stuff, but seriously, in a few days everything will be beaten again... Every damn noob is able to get the best gear with no really effort. I'd like to see separately gear you'll only get in raids. Like you can get all the kind-of nice stuff as usual, but if you want to get the ULTRA-L33T-GEAR you have to do a hella difficult raid that can't be finished within a few days...
sorry for my bad english btw

Oh, well, sorry, forgot about that one in my rage^^.Ferisar said:
In my eyes the cinematic is really nicely done, but it seems kind of... void. I mean don't get me wrong it looks great, but you don't really get a feeling of how the game is going to change and all that stuff. Also is there nothing about the story, maybe it's just supposed to be eye candy, but yeah.
I'm not kind of a hardcore gamer myself, I just don't like how ANYONE can get EVERYTHING without much effort. It kind of takes the motivation to play away...
Though I love it, it doesn't have the same loregasm as WotLK. I played through the whole of Warcraft 3 and in my years before that had been playing Warcraft 2. Blizzard's always been ahead of their time in the CGI department and that's one of the things that's made their games so memorable. The chills went up my spine as King Terenas spoke of Arthas' great power and his future - the stark contrast between what he thought would occur and what had actually happened.
This cinematic hasn't had the same impact as that one and I'm tempted to say that it's a little below the BC cinematic, if only due to my knowledge of who Illidan was and his 'development.' I'd probably have been a bit more excited if I'd read the lore on Deathwing. Then again ... having played WoW for 2 years on and off, it did send chills up my spine just as it did before when I saw the places I'd gotten to know so well over the years changing dramatically under Deathwing's rage.

I dunno, if you watch the Heroic dungeon and Raid boss videos on youtube by people like TotalHalibut and BlueXephos it looks like dungeon difficulty is being significantly ramped up. There's always the possibility of the dreaded nerf of course but so far I think Cataclysm is looking entirely reasonable.Soulfly94 said:
When people say such things i'd really love to see their Armory page, especially their achievements. Did you finish all the encounters as heroic? No? Then don't complain. According to Guild rankings only 3.73% got the Glory of the Icecrown Raider achievement for 25 man Icecrown. Sure you can get the gear easily, but gear means crap if you can't use it properly. It's not vanilla WoW any more where gear was hard to come by, these day your progress is measured by what achievements you can get.Soulfly94 said:
Don't get me wrong, I totally agree with you about that, but it's all that shit with gearscore. All that people take care of is their gearscore (well not all, but definately the majority), and here we come to your point: Gear simply doesn't say shit if your skill is neat. But seriously, who asks about skill? It's all about gearscore nowadays.Keava said:
And btw, I am sure I didn't do every raid and stuff, because I didn't play WoW that long.
As soon as I was T9 and kind of T10 equipped I quit. And it just doesn't last long to do that.
Friend of mine started playing like 8 or 9 months ago, now he's got 5 lvl 80 characters full T10 equipped and I can't really see whats the point in it.
love the movie, and for the 3 days I tinkered around with the new patch it seemed the changes were working out for me to. many new interesting and helpfull features, and the new hunter system seemed solid. my account is now frozen for lack of paying for the moment but I'll give it a good long thought for maby firing it up come christmas time
My only disappointment so far is that Deathwing doesn't seem to have the depth and moral ambiguity that I felt Arthas brought to the table and that was highlighted extremely well throughout Wrath.
That said, he's a giant fiery dragon that destroys everything. Soooooo, can't complain there! Not even two months left...

And in this clip, Professor Deathwing instructs the Old Gods on how to properly destroy the world. None of this "lurk around corrupting lesser beings into destroying each other" business - nonsense! No, just fly into their cities and set them all on fire.
That's how it's done, people. Take notes.

Hmm, the sentence "You are NOT prepared" still gives me nostalgic shivers down my spine.
The visuals in this one are awesome, but I don't think it'll be as memorable as some of the others.

Goblins practice slavery. And when working with large quantities of nearly molten adamantium and a crazy giant dragon who has absolutely 0 regard for the well being of his minions, it sure as hell won't be the chief engineer himself there.Exort said:
