![]() 9.2 Excellent Superb art, incredible amount of content, geared towards end game from day one, fun instances, flying mounts, and much more; Certain glaring class unbalances, no flying in Azeroth, price of $40 bucks for a subscription-based expansion pack. RATINGS GUIDE |

The musical score and sound effects are very much in line with the original game (while bringing a few fresh twists here and there), and what is also clearly noticeable is an added lighthearted touch to the world - with NPC spoofs on celebrities like Paris Hilton and then the whole wacky atmosphere surrounding the Area 52 in the Netherstorm.

Another thing worth mentioning about the expansion is definitely the inclusion of flying mounts. This is clearly more than a simple cosmetic addition to the game, as it adds a whole new dimension to world exploration. A clear downside to the flying mounts is that they cannot be used in the old world of Azeroth, but I'm guessing a change like this *might* eventually come in one of the subsequent content patches. As it is, I imagine it would be hard to rebuild the old world in such a way that all the zones that were previously inaccessible to people with running mounts, would be consistent with the rest of the game world and not prone to bugs/exploits. Point is, the world of Outlands was built from the ground up with flying mounts in mind. That's the biggest difference.
Overall, I am more than impressed with what Blizzard has done with the World of Warcraft expansion. They simply continue their great tradition of expansion packs for games like Diablo and Warcraft III. There are so many things that remain to be said about this game, and so many things all of us would like to see added, but that's the great thing about World of Warcraft. Part of the reason why it's so consuming is because of its incredible scope and complexity that draws you in and keeps you in the game world for a long, long time.

| This is the best MMO (perk your fuckin eyes, MMO and not the best game) No matter the artwork or how good a game was conceived, still i would choose a SP game rather than an MMO. @turd: that’s what private servers are for; no use making a subscription for something you play 3 or 4 times in 2 weeks. Private servs are illegal but hell, so is jackin off in the park but i still do it. as a gamer, human being, non contributor to the world’s best interest or any interest for that matter, i ask you: judge me not; for it’s not your fucking business. |
