Back in Azeroth

Filed under: :-(, Fool, World of Warcraft — wedge55 @ 8:35 AM

Me working at an MMO company is like a pedophile getting a job at a preschool. Nevermind the games we publish; not a day goes by without at least one lengthy World of Warcraft discussion. My boss tells me about his pick-up Sunwell Plateau raid and relays last night’s PvP stories. Half the office does their daily quests during their lunch break. And then on Thursday night, I shared a BART ride home with a co-worker—A solid forty minutes spent reminiscing about those halcyon days of raiding at 60.

It was only a matter of time:

HOLDING OUT FOR A HERO

I’m weak. I couldn’t hold out until Wrath of the Lich King.

PvP zones, destructible buildings, siege weapons, and a new class that plays like the combination of an affliction warlock, a frost mage, and a vampire ensures I’ll at least level to 80. But in the meantime, arena season 4 starts on June 24, and I’ve got AVs to AFK in so I can buy the season 2 arena set when it’s downgraded to honor gear. If everyone’s favorite figureprintable priest is going to lay dormant, nothing more than a searchable query in the Armory, then he may as well look awesome while doing it.

EDIT – The first thing I see when I log in:

It's true what they say...

  2. Your name can’t be more than 12 characters, and the word “deathknight” is 11 characters long. So much for Deathknightpfhor.

  8. I’m pretty glad to be playing World of Warcraft, honestly. That new shaman talent that replaced LOL 2 HANDED AXES makes my character actually playable. Huzzah!
