I personally can not wait for WOTLK and cinematics look great
but they dont call failhammer for a reason
Why would i be a fanboy?
U mean that WoW isn't an repiting item-grind feast?
All u do in that SHITTY game is to grind gear.
"Woho! I just got full S3!! IM PRO!!! Ohh fuck... Wait.. No, S4 is out. Need to grind more.." And guess what? Now ALL u got is f-ing useless when the new expansion comes out. Must feel good for some ppl to know that all ter hard work is worth nothing.
And whats up with S4 anyways? There are THREE diffrent sets that changs color depending on what class... Creativity?
grinding is what mmo's are all about, WoW is no different however having played alot of mmo's I can say that so far WoW is the best. I'm also in the WOTLK beta and it's pretty immense
ps dont mind my clicking! no addons work for binding in the beta
No matter what you think or say, i'll always be with Blizzard and i'm sure that Blizzard will always be at the top. I'm not a pver at all, I spend all my time doing arena with my 3v3 team and I honestly don't give a shit about gear, new gear each season but in the end it comes down to how well you play together and RNG. Also i'm always max'd on gear so.
Sadly WOTLK didn't add enough to keep me playing WoW.
I'll always have very fond memories of WoW, but Illidan's defeat was complete shit and ruined some of the story for me (sadly) and I don't want that to happen to Arthas, which may be on par with Tolkien's storyline in terms of epicness.
No need to talk about Warhammer here at all, there's a thread dedicated to it.
I have lots of RL friends excited for WOTLK. Frankly, I'm a tad disappointed they are tainting the Arthas storyline, but I understand the necessity.
they're not tainting it, they're just carrying it on. I can tell you that Illidan was always a minor >not so important character< he was more of a side show, whilst being a very cool character he was never of importance to the main story. I think they did the right thing in killing off Illidan and Kael'thas, it means people can move on. Having played the beta I can tell you that the game feels alot more epic and lore based than WoW and TBC and I think you should renew your account when it's out for the first month, hit 80 and see what you think of it.

I've thought many a times about it, but I need a game I won't get lost in. I'm working 40hrs a week and have 35hrs a week of class. The last thing I need to do is start raiding again.
I also have played the Beta and I could agree with you that its way more Lore based, but the epicness factor for me is just not there. There's nothing they can do with WoW that will blow me away any longer. Even when I saw KJ come out of the ground I was very 'meh'ed. I thought Muru was a way more fun fight.
I really don't agree with you about Illidan by the way. His story was just as important in WC3 as Arthas was for a while.
Also, Leo, there will be 1 or 2 more expansions, but I don't think they will have the same effect that this one will.
I suspect maybe they'll do one based around Queen Azshara and the final probably based around Sargeras (if they dare to explore an explaination to mortals killing him). Dazz could correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't suspect many other major storylines in Warcraft playing a role.
Still, important character or not, he did still the show in Frozen Throne, plus he now has countless nerds liking him lol and feeling sad for his death. And his trailer is still better lol.
well you don't actually kill illidan, it goes into LOL LORE mode at the end and maiev shadowsong (the night elf who was hunting him in wc3 tft) kills him and then says
Quote:
* Illidan: Is this it, mortals? Is this all the fury you can muster?
Maiev: Their fury pales before mine, Illidan. We have some unsettled business between us.
Illidan: Maiev...How is it even possible?
Maiev: Ah, my long hunt is finally over. Today, Justice will be done!
Death:
* Maiev: It is over. You are beaten.
Illidan: You have won...Maiev. But the huntress...is nothing without the hunt. You...are nothing...without me.
Maiev: He's right. I feel nothing. I am nothing. Farewell, champions.
Akama: The Light will fill these dismal halls once again. I swear it.
maiev kills illidan, not the 25 people. I'm sure Lady Sylvanas will have something to do with Arthas' fall or perhaps he will begin to question the Lich Kings hold over him.
I suppose that's true, but there are certain rules about summonings (It's not a shade btw, it's actually him, the sunwells power just reacts against him and pushes him back in). One of the rules of demonic summoning, is that once summoned, you cannot be resummoned for 100 years or something to that effect.

Totally agree about Sylvanas btw - but still, its ridiculous the 25 heros can even weaken him... just like it'll be even MORE ridiculous 10 heros can weaken ARTHAS... I dunno, I guess its a preferencial thing, and I personally think you're convincing yourself its okay. I did a lot of that with TBC, as I was hesitant to play it... and with all my other priorities, WOTLK isn't convincing me its okay.
<edit> Oh, and btw, on the topic of the next expansion, what do you think? It won't be KJ, they won't rinse and repeat like that, Queen or Sargeras?

Totally depends on how this expansion goes but there's always the Maelstrom or Malfurions story in the Emerald Dream
