Having checked out both sides of the coin, here's a bunch of quick thoughts on the Post Apocalypse:
- Orgrimmar is completely unrecognizable. Even The Drag is brightly lit.
 - Camp Taurajo is still burning. Between that and Fort Triumph, that just stuck in my craw.
 - Desolace is... well... 'desolate' is not a good descriptor anymore.
 - Hillsbrad is like the Western Plaguelands, Forsaken style.
 - Ashenvale is like Southern Barrens to the Alliance. 'Nuff said.
 - The gigantic 'Ode to Me' statue in front of Stormwind Keep --complete with top knot-- makes me dislike Wrynn even more.
 - There was a toon standing next to me, taking in the giant Wrynn statue, and said out loud "Tax payer money..." I think he won the Internets last night.
 - Sylvanas is making Hellscream look normal. Or as Vosskah put it when I was discussing the changes with him, "I'm starting to like Jaina more. And that's saying something."
 - The old Barracks in Stormwind look like Deathwing took a gigantic bite out of it.
 - You can't go into an opposite faction's city solo anymore. As a guildie put it, "You walk in, and instant death."
 - I got on Tomakan, mounted, and.... Dear Lord, Elekks ain't pretty.
 - You won't find the word Defias anywhere. Not even in the Stocks.
 - There are so many flight points around I expected Ricky Ricardo to pop out from behind a tree and say "It's just so ridiculous!!"
 - For those of you who waited, the price on Master Flight dropped to 4k.
 - Magatha Grimtotem's tent is empty. Good riddance.
 - Those Plagueborn Horrors? You'll find L20 versions of them in Hillsbrad.
 - For Elune's sake, lose those bird arms, Malfurion Stormrage.
 - One last thing: Dalaran at 8 PM looked like Dal at 5 AM. Shattrath-style empty, here we come.

ReplyDeletenot quite. seems someone hasn't played plants vs zombies yet! =)

@Syl: I'm mostly done with it. Only have the last wave to go through.
ReplyDeleteI can't bring myself to look at Vid's elekk. :( I get that they are culturally appropriate...but now I am going to have to do Argent Tournament with her to get her a horse again!
ReplyDelete@Vid: Well, there's always being Exalted with Stormwind for getting a mount.
