You may have come back to visit Azeroth because, you genuinely have nothing else better to do with your time. You sit at home on your computer, you may or may not be un-employed watching the commercials for the games and expansions on YouTube starring such stars as, Ozzy Osbourne, William Shatner and Mr.T and think why did I stop playing that game again? You have finished all the other games in your collection up until this point. So you head out to your local Best Buy or Gamestop and pick yourself up a new game card and jump back on the metaphorical band wagon to see if you can hit another level 80 before the next update comes out, but not before downloading the newest patch since you last played which is many hundreds of megabytes in size. Better get out the Red Bull and a bag of Lays because, usually these types of return players are the ones who end up playing for hours on end without realizing how long they were actually playing for. If you have ever been playing from the time you woke up till the time you went to sleep and wondered where you day went, you may fit into this category… or you may have a problem.
The World of Warcraft: Cataclysm announcement came to us with a few surprises. Many things will be changing with the expansion, including nearly every zone in Azeroth. I was personally surprised by this move. I thought (and a lot of people were with me on this one) that the Emerald Dream or perhaps something related to Pandaria. Even when information leaked that the expansion would indeed be Cataclysm, part of me though that some of the things that were announced were a bit ridiculous.
Night elf mages confused me, because I was under the impression that Night Elves couldn’t practice arcane magic. It was later addressed by Ghostcrawler, saying it would make sense when you play as one. Alright GC, guess we have to trust you on that one. Some people were arguing that goblin shaman don’t make sense. Looking at it from a lore standpoint, there is no reason to think otherwise. There’s no evidence in goblin lore that is definitive enough to say, “Why are goblins allowed to be shaman?” Also, certain other MMOs have had goblin shaman from the beginning, and it does seem to fit.
Blizzard announced on Friday, the rumors of the third expansion in the World of Warcraft series were true. Along with the pre-mentioned new features of the game we told you about in our first post are a couple of other jaw-droppers.
- The expansion will offer seven new zones including The Lost Isles, Twilight Highlands and a sunken city that is set entirely underwater.
- Players will now be able to fly anywhere and everywhere in Azeroth. And they’ll be able to use underwater mounts.
There have alw
ays been many rumors around about new expansions or character classes or towns coming to World of Warcraft. How reliable these sources are is questionable and Blizzard is the really the only holding all the cards. One big rumor out there right now is about the possibility of a new expansion called Cataclysm. The Following are what is said to come with this new expansion.
-Level Cap brought up to 85 (The say they want to fit in a few more expansions before the eneviatable 100 level cap)
-New Races will be available. Goblins for the horde and Worgen for the alliance. Some Goblins have been enslaved by Deathwing, but there are still some that have refused and escaped his terany. The Worgen came from the Kingdom of Gilneas that dwel behind the now cracked open, Graymane Wall.
