World of Warcraft WoW Cataclysm

Wow! And I don't just mean World of Warcraft. Cataclysm is going to actually change the face and experience for everyone in WoW, and not just those at the highest of levels. Yes, there will benefits to those of higher levels including more instances, but the lowbies are getting love, too! Leveling wont be so boring anymore, as everything you've memorized has the potential to change.

Going BACK to Azeroth will not be a pain anymore, as the possibility of Flying Mounts there gets everyone excited.

A new profession in Archeology (I want to try it out in Silithus). Two new races, Goblins Worgens. Suuurre, let the Horde get another cool race :(

So they are bumping the level cap up again... This means that those who have struggled so far for so long will continue to have yet another challenge ahead of them. This means that talent trees will be restructured, and classes will once again be balanced!

Speaking of classes, you will be able to see many more race and class combinations available. Gnomes will get some healing love, and frankly look MUCH cuter than any Human or Dwarf Priest could ever be!

Some of the changes to the 'old' realms are really what make me interested in this expansion. It will be a whole new leveling experience, and that is what makes it maybe for me. The problem is the cost of this game. Sure, some people argue that it is a month's worth of entertainment for $15 a month, but with a $50 game, 2 $35 expansions, and now a 3rd expansion between 30-40$ will really keep that 'only fifteen dollars a month' coming in. Blizzard has a great business plan, and they plan on keeping it around... forever.  World of Warcraft Cataclysm looks like it will truly be expanding the MMO world as we know it!

I have my share of toons with flying mounts, but that does not excite me about this particular piece of news.  Now, every node from all levels will be farmed, farmed, farmed.  Copper is more prevelant than many ore, and will always sell very well.  Especially with the recent change in mining times.  One hit gets you everything, so mining can take 1/4 of the time.

Oh well, we will see.  It wont happen for a while, at least, because everyone will be experiencing the new content like Heroic Deadmines!
