More WoW…can’t get enough!

October 21, 2008

So I’m finally getting a post in…and what else would I be taking about but WoW. I can’t believe how much I’ve enjoyed this game.  I’m closing in on level 69 and loving the new features that the new 3.0.2 patch has brought. If you’ve taken a hiatus from WoW, I suggest you take a look at the new patch. There is an absolute laundry list of updates, but I’ll give you a brief rundown.

  • New talents: talent trees have been redone and new ones have been added (this is for the upcoming expansion’s level 80 cap). All of your talent points will be refunded so you can respec.
  • Achievements: just like on xbox 360. Tons of achievements…750!
  • A built-in calendar: now you can easily keep track of your guilds events as well as world events.
  • Stormwind Harbor: Stormwind now has a harbor that will allow you to travel to the new continent Northrend in the Wrath of the Lich King expansion.

There are a ton of updates I didn’t mention, but these are some of the big ones. It almost feels like a brand new game to me, since I respec my arms warrior to fury. This patch is available to everyone playing WoW, but be sure to look into the expansion in mid November. I absolutely can’t wait!

This is going to one heck of an expansion

So I’ve been playing WoW for about a week, and I can’t get enough of it. This is really my first serious time with the game. In the past, I’ve done a couple of trials but could not get into it. I’m normally into shooters and sports games, but this has been an awesome change of pace. I finally understand why 10 million+ people play this game. Many people are turned off by the monthly fee, which I admit is one the things that made me uninterested originally. Considering all factors now, the game is totally worth it. The sheer dollars/per hour spent in the game by far surpass my time spent with $60 PS3 and 360 games.

If you haven’t given WoW a chance, you are really missing out. Download the game and do the 10-day trial, you’ve got nothing to lose. Now excuse me, I gotta continue leveling my level 24 Dwarf Warrior!
