Back in the day World of warcraft was a game that everyone was talking about, the game had a sense of adventure, a sense of epicness, and even though the grind was some times repitive it was FUN

then one day the burning crusade came out, from then on the game went on decline, blizz tried to appeal to EVERY1, by doing this they have destroyed the fundamental building blocks of WoW. Exploration= out of the game, Epic warcraft lore =still in the game( but the lore SUCKS), sense of adventure = gone, fun = some of it is still there but it will never compare it the pre bc days

Why i say exploration, sense of adventure is gone? 5 man instances, just for one minute compare them, compare shattered halls to BRD, compare underbog to Maraudon, compare mana tombs to Dire maul. FACE IT almost all of the 5 mans in TBC are just narrow hallways with mobs jsut standing there and very little interesting lore to the dungeons. These 5 mans are boring, short, VERY VERY linear. There is no sense of adventure in these instances. Do any of you remeber your first time in BRD,L/U BRS, or Maraudon. I sure as hell do, these places were HUGE. Example is BRD, this place was a 4-7 hr instance, incredibly detailed, very big, challenging, many ways to complete this, it had a frickin raid insaide the instance. That my friend is adventure, exploration....

now with TBC no one does the best 5 mans in the game anymore

(Strathome), (dire maul) , (Scholomace), very fun, extremly detailed instances with GREAT LORE, but since the loot sucks you might as well skip the best instances in the game and go straight to the outland.

Why i say the lore sucks for us lore freaks, back in the day wen ragnaros , nerf, c'thun was out, these guys were EPIC, like look what ragnaros did to blackrock mountain, C'thun was a frickin old god and actually held their ground to the Titans. like these guys were epic, and i agree getting 40 guys in a raid party sucked but when you killed these guys man was the sense of accomplisment there, it felt like you actually saved azeroth. Now you get raid bossess like Grull, and lady vashj, and illidan. Ok i know some fot hese guys are a big part of warcraft, BUT HONESLTY BLIZZARD NOT MAKE A BETTER STORYLINE. Like to this day Why does the horde care if illidian is dead or not, just leave him alone hes alrdy being hunted by the burning legion. And why should we care about grull, what has he done to azeroth. Lady vashj is ok. The only raids that are fun is Kael thas(hats to blizzard for making him), and hyjal summit, and ZA. These raids were pretty decent. Hyjal summit was prolly the best raid in TBC.

like compare a frickin OLD GOD to a run away out cast?????old god is more interesting for sure

im not even gonna rant about the grind and the value of epic gear

Well guys, as much as i hate to say this WOTLK is not looking any better, when you can 10 man THE LICH KING, you know the epicness is gone, i mean for gods sake IT THE LICH KING, this guys they guys that defied the burning legion, completed owned illidan in its 1/2 weakened state, and your gonna give players an option TO 10 MAN HIM, just for this fight you should make him a frickin a full 40 man raid and challenging as hell.

The only good things about WOTLK is that blizzard is going back to awsome lore that warcraft fans love. were going back to fight the scourge XD

At the current state of things i would say WOTLK is prolly gonna be an improvement comapred ot TBC, but it will never compare to pre bc
