The Lich King Expansion is just further proof of how Blizzard is deviating from the way I used to admire them.
I'm sorry but Illidan should not be on farm status...but it happened...ok he wasn't really the main character so I'll let that go.
Arthas shouldn't be on farm status either, but I imagine he will be. It's just wrong, there's a certain amount of hype in the back of your mind that knows that Arthas is just that bad-ass that he can't be killed. When you take away that background part of him and make him just another raid boss you lose essentially the "drama" of the whole storyline.
That ain't my only gripe though.
Only releasing ONE FUCKING hero class? Well done Blizzard, EPIC FAIL.
Now every Tom, Dick, & Harry that has a level 55 (not hard) is going to re-roll Death Knight and will name their Death Knight with every variation of the aforementioned Raid Boss of WotLK (Arthas).
Also, the fact that you don't actually have to work at getting the class, just roll anything...get to 55 and bam.
Maybe if Blizzard had done some actual work and figure out that HERO CLASSES are a higher archetype of classes.
I could see Shaman turning into *Hero* Totem Chiefs.
I could see Mages turning into *Hero* Archmages
I could see Warriors turning into *Hero* Blademasters.
I could see Paladins turning into *Hero* Death Knights
Etc etc etc.
Essentially take any of the Hero's from WC3 and there ya go, that's your hero class. Not fucking hard blizzard. By releasing ONE hero class your going to inundate the whole fucking game with one hero class.
It should have been a prestige thing, level your character to max...set out on an epic class quest to turn yourself into a hero class. (Non-reversible).
I hope they are working harder on Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2 because I'm not impressed with the "work" they are doing on WotLK. Maybe it's time to ration out the Milky Ways and Pepsi Max to the WoW Dev Team eh Blizzard? I think the sugar induced comas are starting to fuck with their minds.
