Decided to do Black Temple on my monk alt for some transmog stuff, instead end up with 3 pets and a fucking war glaive on first run ever with that character.
Atleast Monk can wear the glaives, not like my lock and shaman who proudly let them dust off in their bags.

WotLK question was as streamlined without being nearly as restrictive in terms of questing freedom or anywhere near as corny. A huge part of why Deepholm is the best zone in Cataclysm is because it's essentially WotLK-style questing and storytelling. BC questing had a lot of baggage from Vanilla, but I still think the storytelling was better than Cataclysm. Also, I'll never not jump at the sound of a Fel Reaver, ever.
It would've been epic if, whenever baddies like Deathwing and Ragnaros showed up, they also destroyed an entire zone or something ridiculous. I feel like that would give the feeling of "oh shit, that's what I'm gonna be up against later?" instead of the casual flyby you get in the Hyjal questline.

Well I mean Deathwing was killing entire zones for giggles for a whole expansion. IMO he should have murdered people in Stormwind / Org a lot more

He killed NPCs too, that'd be incredibly inconvenient.

There is 4 cities how terrible would it be to have to use the Deeprun Tram / A Zepplin I'd say a minor annoyance to make the world seem more real would be worth it tbh

These days you can probably solo those things before you even finish the zone. I do remember massing up 20-40 people on launch day to fight them though :D

I remember when getting attuned to shattered halls and having to kill the Fel Reaver I ended up kiting the fucker to Adal so Adal would one shot him. People were reallly really confused
Also remember when Adal's 100,000 death beam was literally considered DPS of the gods?

I didn't even realize monk's could equip it so at first I was like 'aww can't even equip', but I can  . I like the sister of temptation pet I got though, mini succubus.

Deathwing torching random lowbies just made it weirder. It removes the whole "killing you outright is beneath him" excuse since it obviously isn't.
