I've seen this in TV shows, comic books, anime and now a mmo game.

When the story comes to an end the evil bad guy is defeated and has a great ending, until they
put in a new evil has come thats even worse then the 1st!

At that time I just don't care anymore feels like their dragging the story to make it last longer.

WoW I feel is starting to do this when Arthas is defeated the Epic story ends, then the new xpac trailer came.

Do we need a new mega evil boss story again, I don't think so just give me more stuff to do how many times dose the world need saving.

This is just me talking I'm sure other people are happy with the new story with the xpac.

For people like me however can I just get more BGs maps like AV and more big PVP (with no vehicles)

Just Ally vs Horde in a mass battle that last longer then old AV.

Because thats the only real thing keeping me playing this game now is AV and BG's that and my friends.

What do you guys think?

I hate to tell you this, but Deathwing isn't just being put in as something bigger and badder. He's been a big and bad for a very long time within the story. You just haven't had the misfortune to deal with him directly though you've had some interactions with his children and minions.

Arthas is the most promininent "bad guy" currently for a few reasons. One being he was someone you interacted with a lot in Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne. His story itself also struck a chord with many people. Plus, (I believe) our development teams who worked on The Frozen Throne and the various aspects of the expansion did a pretty amazing job with making the continuing story come alive and move forward. So the epic nature of what has transpired seems untoppable to some. We like to challenge ourselves to do more and better every time.

That said, there is a lot of story that is still being explored and left to explore. To diminish that story to only being about Arthas and the Lich King is a bit short-sighted. There are many prominent figures in the lore and many stories and stories within stories to be told.
