I quit wow a couple of months before wotlk came out mainly because of class imbalances, lame ass pvp,and s4.

Is there anything worth coming back to? or is it BC with snow?

If you had problems with those things before, I don't know why you'd even consider coming back. It's an expansion, not a new game. So....no. don't get it

You have no clue what you're talking about. Wotlk as an expansion is way more polished than BC (new class, bigger zones, achievements, controllable vehicles/siege engines, world pvp zone in WG).

Now to answer the topic, Wotlk is definitely worth getting, but class imbalance still exists, and PVE content is a joke since Blizzard decides to hold the casuals' hands and spoon-feed them epic loots.

Basically, Wotlk is BC but even easier, you could solo the raids there with a hunter...The only reason you'd be attracted back to the game is for the new classes and gear, and the issue is that Blizzard have officially murdered half their design department and every piece of gear looks identical. Imagine the season 4 gear but worse, its cloth gear recoloured for all the cloth wearing classes and its the same issue with leather, mail and plate.

Whilst Blizzard cater for the kiddy fanboys with all the glitter and pretty effects, the down to earth and hardcore gamers get nothing for their money. It's essentially more of the same, but less...if you know what I mean.

The reason Blizzard makes gear look identical is because they've received a lot of complaints during BC that the gear makes characters look like walking modern art in the sense that they dont match in colour or looks.

Ooh, Ski-free! Brings back the memories. Umm...I would have to say that, like someone else said here, the new patches they have made for the game are actually pretty good and add welcomed features, but WOTLK itself is really just a package of fanservice for longtime players to sink their teeth into.

Not worth getting at all. If you played BC you played WOTLK in theory. Just different scenery, same grind.

This guys full of crap.

if you have addiction issues dont coem back to it. IMO WOTLK is one of the best invetments I have ever gotten for my gaming dollar.

The quest IMO are wayy better than BC content. let me put it this way (spoilers)after wraith gate its questionable weither the forsaken are still with the horde.

the king of SW fights thrall and you end up in an epic invasion of undercity

there were ONLY those 2 cool quests. BTW^ ^ that is the classic response of an addict who is blind and does not know what fun a real game delivers. The content is the same grind. Period. If you like grinding, then all power to you get the game. I dont see how grinding quest hubs is... fun?

well i really enjoy the new game. it feels alot like vanilla wow, but we can give you the pros and cons of this game all day. it depends on your personal preference on gaming. many people quit and then realize oh i should play again. the turn over rate of this game is r-tarded. but there is always people online and the servers seem to be always full. they are doing alot of free server transfers every week it seems like for over populated realms. and several new realms just opened up where the gates of AQ havent even been opened yet. if you are an xbox achievement junky you might really enjoy the expansion.

I feel the pvp is more balanced. I am a prot warrior and killed a warlock with half hp left. He was in full epics..

I enjoyed WOTLK. Got 2 characters to 80 and raided for awhile. Saw all of the content and got bored. I'll probably come back in a couple months when some content patches are released.
