WoW Cataclysm - Screenshots and Artworks

[Revrant]

tauren paladins are warriors of there sun god basicaly the tauren have found away touse their sun god's power
undead hunters er m let me thhink isn't sylnanis a hunter and wasn't there humans hunters before in the lore and the main dead nad turned evil to the forsakekn

Sun God? The hell are you talking about? Tauren worship The Earthmother, who could very well be Therazane, and the Earthmother is an embodiment of Nature, not the Holy Light.

The Tauren have no connection to the Holy Light, you can't just go "ommmmpodamadmommmm" and be a freaking Paladin, you have to have a divine connection to the Holy Light, even if it's by force(Blood Elves previously).

Sylvanas is not a hunter, she's a Ranger, totally different, so I'm most fascinated as to how that happens, living animals hate and fear the undead.

As for Tauren, they join the Argent Crusade, bam, Holy Light.

The implausible part is the whyyyyy.

Don't quote me on this, but I remember hearing that the Earthmother is the force of nature, and one eye of some bigger god. The other eye is the force of light, so basically they just started following that eye too (or something like that).

funny how the Artist signing on the sketches readys WOW x3 (wow part3), which leads me to believe that well we have WOW part 5 in the works in some way shape or form, beyond cataclysm(wow 4).. the mind the can only wonder! Maybe then we can become cross faction Traders and choose Horde or Alliance sometime down the road as a spy or ....????
I know some of you say but there was Vanilla WOW(part1), BC(part2), Wotlk(part3) , and this would be part 4, but well you never know what they choose to include and when..

EVERYTHING looks great. I love the old England Dr.Jekyll/Mr.Hyde appearance of Gilneas. I also love the Atlantis/Robinson Crusoe creativeness behind the Goblin's home. As for having a creature added to Alliance that is based on the dweller of Lycanthia is Genius. As for having the Goblins choose a side, And "NOT" as per Hucklebuck's comment, it's brilliant. Have the little green monsters reside with their hideous larger look alikes, Orcs. I think it's grand the Goblin is no longer an NPC.

I'd just like to say, we all have to compromise for the changes in the new world of Azeroth and Cataclysm itself. It is well worth it after all the benefits. In addition I have been playing this game since I received my beta discs in 1998. I grow tired of the same world everyday. It's a small place after 11 years. I think this event will be a highlight for all us Wow-heads. In addition we will for once, all be NEWBIES

By the way Hucklebuck, if you don't like the changes, instead of being ignorant of the situation, overall truly into the furthest depths, analyze the facts, the pros vs. cons, there's also nothing you can do about it, deal with it, then be happy with it. If you like Horde, awesome. We, the Alliance, had been bent over a barrel when you had gotten the awesome Blood Elf, and we got the stupid Draenei. So it's our turn to get something cool, and the Horde to get something not everyone may like.

I'm not trying to be rude, I just want everyone to look over the term at hands thoroughly with realistic views before posting pessimistic views.

OH! I also thought I'd throw in here. If no one has clued in yet, which MANY of you probably have... This new expansion is based on the prophesied 2012 malarkey... The planets will align, us being in the level of our nebula having our black hole pull on us in a spiral form will cause natural catastrophe... Meteors will hit, Earthquakes, Mass Floods, Super Tsunami, Hurricanes, Tornadoes, Excessive Volcanic Activity, Etc... Pretty good idea, but I think selling out the 2012 crisis is hitting a bit under the belt (to vulnerable people). Just like 2000 (Y2K) was....
