Simply Breathtaking

First of all, let me just say that to all those yet to recieve their copies from preorder, or those that have been annoyed in someway by how their preorders went, Although it's frustrating, you guys have a hell of a lot to look forward to. Best of luck in getting your copies quickly.

So I felt like writing a comment or two here about the expansion itself. The forums over the last few days have been filled with those upset with pre orders or installing and the like, and rightly so after all this is a place to vent ones frustrations if you have any. I felt that it was just lacking in the props and love for Blizzard on the product itself.

Now I know not everyone plays Warcraft for the story, or have a care about what's going on around them or believe their class ot be underpowered and others overpowered which is effecting their play-style, but I urge you to do this. Just take a look around and take in what we've been given here.

Howling Fjord, whoever designed this place deserves a medal and lifetime supply of anything he/she/they desire. Everything in that Zone is magnificent, The landscape, the scenery, the inhabitants, the story, the quests the all out feel of the place is for me in my opinion, making it the best zone in the entire of the game.

Both of the starter instances, also incredible. The Nexus is stunning in every way and Utgarde Keep a big step up in every way from those most like it in The burning crusade.

Now I know we're not far in yet, but I believe that simply by story and the starting zones alone, I know this expansion is going to blow The Burning Crusade completley out of the water in pretty much everyway, I've got old friends returned to the game with opened jaws after just experiencing the very first bits of Wrath and I'm certainly happy about that. It's almost as if TBC was just a filler while they worked on the real project of "Wrath" *cough *cough*

So in ending. Thank you Blizzard, and I mean every single one of you. From the people that clean the toilet's to the men sitting in the big offices upstairs. Also cannot forget the Community leaders, Blue's and Oranges that have been around on the forums trying to quell the storm of upset players, that I might add are upset by other things and not by this incredibly specital you released to us in the form of an Expansion. If it were possible, I'd buy you all a beer, but having thought about that I realised it's an act I simply could not afford.

Thank you Blizzard once again, and I'll see you in Northrend.

See you all in Northrend indeed... if you are not already there that is :-)

Just out of curiosity; which starting zone did you guys choose as the beginning of your adventure in Northrend?

I am personally questing in Borean Tundra for the moment, but I plan on heading over to Howling Fjord to have some fun there as well :-)
