I even complain about the games we're doing at our office ;)Dopefishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14347180746422815919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16801899.post-35277610195823146982008-07-04T10:05:00.000+02:002008-07-04T10:05:00.000+02:00i play the expansion, MAN this is an OLD post. the...i play the expansion, MAN this is an OLD post. the game is awesome, and it is a small price to pay for another awesome 10 levels and plenty of instances, there are tons of patches fixing every little thing that goes wrong, and the art may suck a little but its a game, who cares? are you going to be just standing there, looking at the trees, all day? NO! you are going to be out there kicking ass lvling up and destroying everything. currently with the expansion you get access to 2 instance hubs with around 4 instances in each of them, oh strike that, 3 instance hubs with 4 instances, thats 12 so far, then 2 huge instances called Zul'Aman, and the Black Temple, where you fight illidan himself. there is also Gruuls Lair, where a giant Gronn resides, and the Sunwell with one of the newer patches, giving 2 MORE instances. count them up buddy, thats 17 instances, and they are getting closer with the NEXT expansion Wrath of the Lich King, which will be awe inspiring. GG the game rocks, you just must be a picky art critic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16801899.post-71277334122665942262007-08-07T03:35:00.000+02:002007-08-07T03:35:00.000+02:00Wow, thanks for the cool pictures!

I didn't play any of Alpha or Beta, nor could I get a grasp on wall-walking so I missed out on a big chunk of the "hidden" game. I really do enjoy seeing this though. How things started, what they developed into and some ideas as to what I'll see in the future. I understand your point, that a lot of the "content" is in the game already, but not all. As much as it might seem like the company is being selfish by making people pay for things they do have to pay employees and server rental/upkeep fees. I won't deny that the company is making money off this game, but isn't that why it's here? I'm a firm believer that I--at least--am getting what I pay for. Sure, some of the game has unreleased tidbits of the expansion in it, but over all, that is all just skeleton for what the expansion is building. Untill I play Burning Crusade (if I play, of course) I'm going to stand by my feeling of this game being extremely well put together and presented.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16801899.post-1143046288449944482006-03-22T17:51:00.000+01:002006-03-22T17:51:00.000+01:00Very interesting read, thanks.Very interesting read, thanks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16801899.post-1142984345459729712006-03-22T00:39:00.000+01:002006-03-22T00:39:00.000+01:00hey man, have you ever coded a massive project? do...<I>hey man, have you ever coded a massive project? do you think that as soon as new art is done they can just pop it into the game, and provide more, usless patches? do you really think that the instances are completely finished? maybe they are place holders and blizz is going to fill in blanks before a realse of the patch containg the new instance/area/quest or whatever else.
