The last time I played WoW was over 3 years ago and I only played for 3-4 months total. I stopped before the first expansion and got out while I could (I had 3 level 60s; UD rogue, UD warlock, G warlock).

Just recently my friends managed to get me to try it again and a few days ago I reinstalled it. I haven't played yet, but I think I'm gonna roll Alliance on the Nerz'hul (?) PvP server, and probably a Warlock.

Why I'm trying the game out again..
- Graphics got a lot better.
- Hundreds of new things to check out.
- PVPVPVPVPVPVPPVPVPVPVPVPVVP!!~
- Free time over winter break.

1) Am I stupid for picking this game up again?

2) Anyone on the server I mentioned?

I was thinking of starting, and decided not to. It is a waste of money and time, in the end you realize you get to keep nothing and drained a shit load of cash from your bank account. SC is different, it never gets old, every game is a new game and I get to play it any time.

Yea, that is partially why also. 2 for 1 deal and I just couldn't pass it up.

PvP is the best. Less time is needed to have fun.

The textures got a lot better on the character models primarily, but most of the surroundings look a lot better also from when I last played. I say in the next expansion or series of patches the game will start to look similar to the D3 demo I played at BlizzCon.

How can you enjoy PvP in a game that so blatantly disregards balance? Its almost as bad as Diablo II (and in some ways worse, since Blizzard actually TRIED to make WoW PvP good, whereas they didn't make that much of an effort with D2). 2v2 Druid + Warror, Warlock, or Rogue has a decisive advantage over almost every other setup. 5v5 usually boils down to Rogue/Mage/Priest + 2 others. 3v3 is a little better, but still grants a significant advantage to about 3 or 4 setups.

hallo thar seems like you're a couple months too late for that argument

Currently, Wrath PvP is Pre-BC pvp
Burst burst burst burst world pvp and burst.

What makes me angry about wrath is that all of this stuff they're doing now should've been done at BC
Im so happy Warhammer Online is here because it actually motivates blizzard to try harder/

PS: If you are one of those nostalgic guys running around saying "ORIGINAL WOW IZ BETTER THAN BC" and have a 40 hour job, Wrath is a nice thing to pick up :D
