Q u o t e:
exactly...I'm doing every single quest I can find.
I got bored for a bit in hellfire after a failed blood furnace run (got to grogguk, couldn't handle the groups before him :( ) and headed to zangarmarsh...
And ZOMG. I found that it's SOOO much more fun just to level at your own pace and explore and stuff than it is to go LELELVELVELCRAZZYYYY.
That's awesome (everything but the failed blood furnace experience). I know I'm often accused of being biased or "towing the company line" because I'm an employee of this studio, but honestly, the time I invest into this game is due to my own desire to indulge in something I love and enjoy. With that being said, I can honestly state that I'm having a ridiculous amount of fun playing the Burning Crusade. I'm 61 and six bubbles in, due to long work hours I can't play much (sleep depravation is starting to take its toll, but such is the casualties of war...), but when I'm able, I play with the same level of excitement I had when first logging into the original company employee alpha, nearly five years ago.
While I won't be the last to hit 70, I certain won't be the first. Also, I'm excited to work on reputations along the way, professions, exploring every nook and cranny of each map, making new friends, helping others, and everything else the game has to offer. I've had a blast so far questing, and even more fun running ramparts and blood furnace. I could easily run those each another dozen times before I move on.
Anyway, I ramble. My point -- the expansion's amazing. I hope everyone is enjoying it as much as myself. If you want to rush, than rush. Everyone has their own play-style, but I just hope everyone's enjoying the process. The leveling curve is perfect as is, in my own personal opinion as a World of Warcraft fanatic.
Oh, and also, Keris -- I hope you try Blood Furnace out again sometime soon -- it's so much fun. Don't let one bad experience discourage you. I've been doing pick up groups because I enjoy them (yeah, I'm sick...I know). I've wiped a few times. It's all part of the fun.
