Am I the only one that actually likes this expansion so far? This seems like WoW 1.5.

- New race/class combinations will be fun.
- New life into old zones will break is nice. Getting tired of looking at the same static zone since release.

gotta say Im actually happy that I am NOT playing anymore when seeing this.. the new class combos are just yea... lets throw lore and everything about the world out the window, though cool that deathwing is there and how the new lands looks after the cataclysm (though ironic that desolace is now full of life) this is just ... meh and no and feels that are kinda lazy with re-using old dungeons for heroic etc

Looks kind of weak for what is sure to be a fully priced expansion pack, mostly since I have no interest whatsoever in leveling a new character regardless of the new class/race combinations (which are lame for the most part anyway), It seems as though the bulk of the "new" content is designed for re-rollers. <3 the new water visuals though, and Worgen/Gilneas look great.

Is it just me or does it seem Blizz rushed on all the trailers and stuff they released for Blizzcon? This and the D3 Monk trailer is something I'd expect from a lesser dev house.. not from Blizzard.

Will the mighty finally fall?
