CATA.

Here is their expansion pack.

A fucking DRAGON, goes apeshit, escapes, and burns the world down, and we get to play in the new world.

That is how you make an expansion pack.

Blizzard is at their peak imho.

I agree, Blizzard's doing just fine. Hell, this cinematic alone makes me wanna go back to playing WoW. *Mournful sigh*

...and all will burn beneath the shadow of my wings.

At first I thought you were joking but it seems that you think the expansion is top notch.  It seems like a joke to me.  They are making older dungeons higher level and adding a few extra things.  Changing the Barrens to more wet cause Winterspring melted doesn't seem too innovative to me.  Change a few textures here and there and bam you have expansion.  They put little effort into this expansion and will probably only show its true color after numerous patches.  Granted I have been out of the loop on WoW info but I have a few friends (who are still playing) think the expansion isn't that inspiring. 

Well, first and formost, you can now play as a werewolf. That, alone, makes this the best thing to ever happen in a game.

Second, imo, I think the changing of the old zones is WONDERFUL, lol. Those zones are the ones I "grew up" in. I remember and cherish every nook and cranny of them. I took MANY characters up to level 60 through the barrens, and I can't wait to see them changes, lol.

Plus, this is the first expansion to really focus on the best part of WoW. Leveling. A lot of the improvements in the game have taken place in the leveling up and grinding process.

Finally, there is the total revamp of the classes, the talent point system, and the talents themselves, along with the buffing of all the classes.

To be honest, I have never been this excited about the game. I think everything about this expansion pack is designed to get old players like me back into the game.

However, the expansion does seem to alienate the more core players, and again, seems to be designed around appealing to old and casual players and attempting to get people to reroll and redesign their playstyle. That is probaby why your current WoW playing friends aren't real excited about it.

It's a whole new game, really.
