Winterveil will spoile Cata: for me!!

[knusern]

hmm these yearly events highlight the silliness of the game, and takes away a little of that epicness I think.

[Ltsmash]

A week after Deathwing turns our world upside down we all get merry and celeberate a Dwarf dressed in red giving gifts. Doesn't it take some of the menace of this big sundering away because a week after it your having fun and giving gifts?

even in war, people celebrate holidays and to keep morale up.

[Herecius]

Well, this is a good sign in one way. It means people have literally run out of meaningful shit to whine about.

[Drakhar]

It's not a matter of celebrating a holiday, it's the fact that the event is going to make it seem like nothing's wrong.

[pickley]

Even in the roughest time, people celebrate what they can. Pretty much sums up why people would still celebrate wintersveil even though half the world has just been wrecked.

[quakereject]

I'm dissapointed about the timing for another reason. I will have to wait another year for What A Long, Strange Trip It's Been since I will be in the midsts of leveling and/or grinding rep and dungeons.

...

Why?

Is there some achievement for winter veil that takes days of constant gameplay to complete? I don't remember there being that, but I could be mistaken.

[Kaldriss]

"Omg Deathwing is back!"

"Screw him! METZEN THE REINDEER IS IN TROUBLE!"

this is so win, i lol'd

[BallsofThunder]

"Ho ho ho, there will be no snow, just one foe, but do not fear, SANTA IS HERE!"
Santa yells at Deathwing before hitting him with his bag of presents.

Now I get it. Cataclysm is all Grinch's plan to make Christmas not happen.

Win, made my evening.

[Siron]

Well think about it in a diferent way, one week before cristmas daddy comes back from a looooong vacation, resurects his son and his daughter and the whole family can have a merry blackdragon cristmas!

Now THATS the spirit of cristmas! GZ DW!

[Theonehit]

Hmmm what about the deathwing problem ah lets just go save metzen the reindeer

[Alex86el]

Lol thats gonna be kinda stupid

"OH NO! OUR WORLD IS TEARING APART!"

*1 week later*

"Yay! Presents for Everyone! Santa is here!"

i agree, but what can u do.... :\

[Glaedr]

Now I get it. Cataclysm is all Grinch's plan to make Christmas not happen.

ahahahaahahahahahahah THIS!

[Eisenhorne]

I'd like to point on that during World War I, the two sides crossed the deadzone between the trenches and celebrated Christmas together. Xmas has a way of transcending cataclysms.

[Alraml]

Futurama Christmas special anyone?

Play Santa again and i'll kill you next year!

[lobbe]

If they remade the entire holiday it has the potential to be epic...

[Siron]

BTW wasnt it like: OH NO zombies are attacking our cities! everybody is infected with the plague! LK is back! Scourge Scourge Scourge!!! <1week later> HAPPY PILGRIMS DAY!! EAT ALL YOU WANT!!! TOSS FOOD AROUND!!!

Rly you looking at this and ignoring that 2 years ago people ignored the plague and ate food from the same plate not being afraid getting infected?

[Lumocolor]

It's just a game.

and

Does any bad thing in the world stop people from celebrating holidays?

I wasn't around for the 1st or 2nd world war but did people not get together and still celebrate? Pretty sure guys i knee high mud and laying in trenches surrounded by death still took a minute to shake hands and say merry x-mas to each other or whatever.

[Deleted]

Ho ho ho

[flargen]

No better time to stop and celebrate, in my opinion.

Besides... this argument doesn't hold much water, since something fucked up is always happening in Azeroth. No matter what time of year it is, there's always something more "important" to be worrying about than some kind of holiday celebration. What makes the return of Deathwing special?
