Just a post to see if there are any WoW players among TYM? And if so, what server, faction and your toons?
At times, I felt WoTLK was a nice median; didn't require tons of hours to put into raids but eh...from what I've seen in Cata they just practically hand you shit though.After TBC the game went downhill fast.
Wrath was pretty retarded. The game indirectly forces you to do both 25 and 10 man version of the same raid in the same week and at times you have to do the heroic version and the non-heroic version all to keep pace with a decent guild. That upward 4 raids of the same instance a week, all of which quickly lead to burnout. Also the introduction of dailies was retarded. Not only that, heroic mode was basically "Now instead of dicking around, do the fight correctly and we inserted more dmg".At times, I felt WoTLK was a nice median; didn't require tons of hours to put into raids but eh...from what I've seen in Cata they just practically hand you shit though.
Ah yeah, I forgot all about that - you're right...way too big of a commitment keeping up with that shit. I did that for a few weeks and then just accepted that I wasn't going to get that far ahead, fuck that lolWrath was pretty retarded.

My SWP guild in TBC wasn't even that hardcore, we raided 3 hours for 3 days. No DKP, no heavy min-maxing. Just don't fuck up, don't be a dick and have fun.
I kind of agree. Wrath was a very easy expansion for all roles, except for maybe heals. However, since it was so easy it wasn't all that hard to get a decent pug going and at least clearing out the first wing of a raid. When Cata came, that obviously all changed until now, because the game is easy again because players cried to make the game easier. WoW is kind of like MK9 in that sense where if the players don't like something they cry on the forums and it sometimes gets changed.At times, I felt WoTLK was a nice median; didn't require tons of hours to put into raids but eh...from what I've seen in Cata they just practically hand you shit though.
Yeah, it is pretty easy the new DS raid. Even without using Raid Finder it's easy. Vanilla will always be the best. However, a lot of players have now quit due to the fact they don't like the upcoming expansion, MoP.I play. I don't like the new Dragon Soul raid - it seems to be far too easy so currently I'm in the process of getting one of each race to 85 and having at least one of each class. So far I'm at five 85's with one 74.
I'm really excited for MoP. Most people feel it will add a childish feel but I doubt that; all they see are animated pandas.Yeah, it is pretty easy the new DS raid.

I agree. The thing is, there have always been complaints and such when Blizzard have brought out a new expansion, it's nothing new. There's more to it than just Pandas. And, as you can see they've been an idea from the very beginning...I'm really excited for MoP. Most people feel it will add a childish feel but I doubt that; all they see are animated pandas.
