Not dead, 3.3, Cataclysm

Though you may be forgiven for thinking that I am, due to the lack of posts for quite some time. I am infact Undying. Pretty cool, eh?

I've kind of hit a slump with finding things that are interesting to write about. Not that I was great at finding things to write about in the first place, and not that I was great at writing about them when I could. I have the worst attention span ever, and generally get easily distracted from the initial point I was trying to make.

I've been keeping up-to-date with the 3.3 patch notes via the MMO Champion front page, and I have to admit that I'm very, very excited about Icecrown Citadel. I'm not a particularly large lore buff, don't know much about the Classic or Burning Crusade content (having only experienced the levelling aspect), so for me Wrath of the Lich King IS World of Warcraft. Sure, I experienced Azeroth, and I had a taste of Outland, but most of my time has been spent in Northrend. I'll be kind of sad to see it end, but I'm also pretty stoked about a lot of the changes I've read about in Cataclysm.

Maybe in three years time I'll be one of those foolish people posting about how everything used to be so much better; saying that patch 5.x is the worst yet, Ulduar and Icecrown Citadel were the greatest raid instances ever created, and that the game has been dumbed down for casuals and idiots over the years. I hope not, though.

I, with a large amount of help from Daelona, bought myself a Mekgineer's Chopper. And, in addition to looking totally badass while sat on it, riding it around the desert in Tanaris is one of my favourite things to do when I'm not questing or in a dungeon or raid. I'm not convinced people will be able to truly enjoy the sundered, post-apocalyptic world of Cataclysm without being on a chopper or mechano-hog, to be honest.
