If it's not done with ham-hands it can be really solid. Yes - I remember the whole blood elves "We haz naru in a box!" excuse for blood elf paladins - but I'm trying to stay positive here.<br /><br />Cairne getting killed by Garrosh? Unless Cairne has been secretly eating tauren babies and selling the horde out to the Burning Legion - well - I'd almost hand in my horde badge...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3065135122624892361.post-8190722355445059572009-08-17T12:46:52.227-04:002009-08-17T12:46:52.227-04:00@ Thunderhorns

I totally see the written into the corn...@ Windpaw<br /><br />I totally see the written into the corner bit. I love his character and hate to see the way he is currently stuck. However, I'm not impressed so far with the direction they are taking lore in general. The tauren leader, killed by an orc his friend entrusted? Tauren forsaking the Earth Mother and embracing the light? It's like watching Neg's world fall apart around her.Negathlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00102603036116849711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3065135122624892361.post-17162184687435731522009-08-17T10:57:10.839-04:002009-08-17T10:57:10.839-04:00I think Thrall would make a dead on Guardian. Sho...I think Thrall would make a dead on Guardian. Short of Jaina Proudmoore, he's the only leader that has shown the ability or desire to try to find common ground between the Horde and Alliance. His role will be to get the two factions to work against a common enemy in much the same way they did in Silithus. A job made all the harder with Garrosh and Varian in charge.<br /><br />Plus - they've written the poor guy into a corner. He's bigger than life - much more so than the other leaders combined. <br /><br />That means you can only really either kill him or promote him.<br /><br />Guess he gets "promoted"....<br /><br />For now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3065135122624892361.post-32108240601657390302009-08-17T01:46:51.584-04:002009-08-17T01:46:51.584-04:00The last of my motivation was killed when I steppe...The last of my motivation was killed when I stepped into the Coliseum heroic and three purples dropped during the 20 minutes it took to beat the dungeon as wellas three conquest badges and three Champion Seals. That place is a loot vending machine and takes no real skill to win. TBC Heroics took work to beat and you had to be on your toes, WotLK heroics are a joke and this new one is the biggest joke of them all.<br /><br />WoW may be the biggest MMORPG out there and still going strong. But I'm starting to want a new game. I hope someone gets off their ass and makes one. WoW is real vulnerable right now. Their game has become too much of a cakewalk and dumbed down to the point where complete idiot players can obtain purples with minimal work.<br /><br />There has to be some challenge in a video game. It's not like there is any real roleplaying going on or a real story being told. The game becomes repetitive and boring if there is no challenge to look forward to.<br /><br />And now a new expansion already in the works before we even get more info on Icecrown Citadel?

I agree...Awww, C'mon, you don't mean that. I agree with all of your frustrations, I'm the same type of player, but nothing is really ever going to change the fact that WOW is an amazing game. Unfortunately, it's still the best MMO out there, and nothing else really looks to be challenging it anytime soon.<br /><br /> My 2 cents is this. You're a great blogger, and have tons of insight and personality, and bring a lot to the community. Step back, and don't let yourself get stressed out by the rush that WOW has become. Savor and enjoy the things that make it so great. Most of all, enjoy the friends you have made. This game, and unfortunately the people that surround us can really cause you a lot of stress, aggravation and it all leads to burnout. Keep up the good work, and don't quit on the expansions.Jarred Newmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17040592670619872905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3065135122624892361.post-15936104448820017272009-08-15T14:31:17.097-04:002009-08-15T14:31:17.097-04:00Mudflation eventually ruins all good MMOs
