Wrath of the Lich King
Tuesday, 18. November 2008, 01:04:09
It's already five days since WotLK was introduced into World of Warcraft. And four since I had a chance to have a look at it and come to some conclusions 
First of all the new expansion is well made, you can't see any more bugs than before in regular game (I've seen just one). Probably because most of them were fixed just after last patch. Imho it was very good decision as amount of bugs was huge but they were fixed.
Playing level 70+ character is fun although it's not really challenging. Enemies aren't too strong(maybe even a wee bit too weak). Challenge lies in competing with other players for quest items/mobs, resources and so on.
Additionally some of the quests are disappointing e.g. start with warning about a battle that awaits you and then you find out that enemy is weak and poses no real threat or you're getting help from an NPC. Even instances are half as difficult as the ones from TBC.
On the other hand new locations are beautiful. We get new enemies, new mounts, new gear. At last quest rewards are balanced so everyone finds something suitable.
Personally I really enjoy it and hopefully it won't take me too much time to reach level 80
