Goblins starting areas!

I figured high level content would be packed, so lets start at the low end.

Dungeons look incredible though, cinematics are cool..

Colossus Smash or whatever that move is I got at level 81. Seeing multple 20k hits in a row is nice. Oh the trinket that adds 800+ strength on a 1 minute cooldown helps too.

Must concur with flying in the old world. I think I like the new old world better than the new new world.

If it wasn't for 60-80, I'd be content to fill out my last few character slots with newbs, something I haven't had any interest in doing for ages.

the world pvp. i am absolutely loving it. just having zones packed full of people is such a refreshing change. normally in WoW everyone is either hanging in a capital city or in an instance....i imagine it will be like that again in a month so i am trying to enjoy it while it lasts.

i think i actually dislike flying since it makes it too easy to run away from other players.

The additional flightmasters. No doubt. Hated running back and forth everywhere.

For someone who pretty much hated the art style when WoW came out, I am continually impressed with the skill of their artists... how they can do so much with relatively little. This x-pac is the most visually impressive so far - downright jaw-dropping at times. They really took the whole "people will be flying from minute 1" and made it an asset.

I like the quest pacing, too. Yes, it's very linear, but WoW has always been linear - this expansion just embraces it instead of trying to hide it behind pseudo-choices.

Fly in the old word. Been looking forward to it for years, even when forumites said it would never happen. One of the reasons i came back to WoW after over a year away.

Flying.

First time going straight up and seeing all of SW laid out below was an "oh wow" outloud moment.

Really brought the city "to life" in a way that reminded me of being a kid and seeing the world below for the first time from an airplane. Kinda magic. happy

My husband had his own-exactly-the-same "oh wow!" comment out loud when he finally got his flight.

Ditto. I flew straight up in SW and realized that all of those rooftops and all the stuff you could *only* see when flying probably had to be done just for the expansion. None of that art was in game before, I would assume. Really made me realize how much work had to go into something as seemingly simple as flying in the old world. I think "Oh wow" might have been my first thought as well.

I actually wasn't to excited about this coming into Cata. I looked at it very matter-of-factly, good the utility of flying in Azeroth.

However... when I trained it at the trainer and mounted up I fount myself yelling in guild chat. "I'm flying over Stormwind! Wooooooooo!"

Definitely old world flight, but i think it is a little of everything so far. I have to admit, I really liked Vashj'ir. Coming from DAOC's ToA expansion, I wasn't initially sure I would like it, but for the most part Blizzard did very well here.

When I first heard Worgen were the new alliance race I immediately checked the date to see if it wasn't anywhere near April 1st. Despite my skepticism they actually seem pretty cool now.

I just got the Raven Lord's Mount 5 minutes ago. That's been my favorite part of this expansion so far. tongue
