Sorry for the gap, but I'm sure you all know why - Wrath and the leadup thereof. I would like to say first, to those who're already level 80, congratulations! I realise it can take alot of time to get there that fast, and if you're using mob tagging, well done for working the system out.
Secondly the new zones are -fantastic-. Howling Fjord is gorgeous, Grizzly Hills actually feel forest-y, and Dragonblight... Wow. Dragonblight is the most awesome zone I have ever experienced; for those who haven't seen it yet, go. Now. Head to Wintergarde Keep if you're alliance, and do that most awesome of quest chains. It's the earliest way to experience proper vehicle combat, GotA notwithstanding, so take advantage of it.
Finally, Death Knights are damned sweyt. Unholy is awesome for PvP with excellent control and burst, Blood is fantastic for levelling (literally zero downtimes), and Frost seems like a viable tanking spec with good damage. I love the starting quest line, I love thelore, I love the look and feel of the class.
It's just awesome, and anyone sayin' it's faillore need to realise two things. One, in stories, -things happen-. Things that happen are not usually predictable. They do not necessarily follow the rules of past happenings, and characters do not know everything. Since more or less everything we learn in-game is from characters telling us so, we can't say that that is absolute law (or indeed lore). Two, characters -have- to die, to keep the game satisfying. Raiding Black Temple would not be as satisfying if Illidan escaped. The Eye would not have been as satisfying if not for MgT and killing Kael once and for all. You get the point. We might get upset that our favourite characters die, but we don't protest to the author and say it's lore-breaking. So yeah.
