Best Villain in the History of WoW

I quit WoW right about the time DS came out because I just couldn't get into it anymore.. When GW2 came out, I pretty much thought I'd just do away with WoW forever, and even though I still LOVE GW2, I keep thinking MoP might be really cool. So I'm just wondering, is it worth buying and coming back for? or should I just stay away.

Is MoP worth coming back for?

If you like pandas and pokemon and farmville yes, if no, I suggest GW2 is far more awesome than MoP
Its not really worth it if you like the usual wow grind that comes with every expansion - lvl to cap, run normals, run heroics, get gear, run raids > grind rep> same old crap

I think its definitely worth it. I played GW2 and it was boring as all hell. Questing, environments, music are all top notch in MoP. I say go for it!

MoP is well worth coming back for. Sofar it's the most fun I've had playing WoW in a long time.

I haven't played GW2 so I can't compare it to that, but compared to all the other major releases in the last few years, MoP's pretty amazing, I haven't had this much fun in the first few days since TBC. Will it be a great xpac looking back on it 3 years from now? Who knows, but it's worth the cash that's for sure.

It is definitely worth the 39.99. I'm finding my self with tons and tons more to do than any of the previous expansions upon installing and playing the expansion. Blizzard has done a phenomenal job from what I've seen so far. Definitely worth coming back for, even if it's just for a little while.
Man, I've got bags under my eyes... BAGS OF MONEY!
See ya later, peasants.

Speaking for myself, not really.
What really attracted me to wow where the environments. Since I played warcraft III, I was really looking forward exploring the plaguelands, night elf starting zones, etc. Same with bc/outland and wrath and northrend (I also wanted to check out the arthas story since i loved warcraft III). Pandaland is heavily influence by asian culture/architecture and frankly don't see anything new (and i have played other games that have already done that). If it had been the emerald dream, I probably would had tried it to see something new and psychedelic environment.
Also the other fact that I'm frankly sick of the overall gameplay of wow since I have played the game for so dam long.<< What I Look like. ^^Shit I say.

This is by far the best expansion Blizzard has put out. Don't worry about the GW2 fanboys. This is a solid expansion.

If you were bored before, you will be bored now as well. It's pretty much the same game (not that this is a bad thing), same questing, same dungeons (obviously not the same, but you got my drift). Pretty much just the standard WoW experience.

Yeah.. but it's you. You know the guy who gave the game a 0 on meta critic and admitted it on these forums. Originally Posted by Dagoroth23

The leveling, for me personally, has been pretty good, I hated Cata leveling but so far MoP leveling zones have been pretty good (and aesthetically look good too), but WoW is WoW there aren't any MAJOR changes but the new content is good enough to keep me playing and the little things they added like Pet Battles and Farmville seemed to have a significant amount of positive feedback (from what I have seen). The new talents might get some getting used to, but lots of specs (such as Destro) got their rotation cleaned up a bit so if you played a spec that may have seemed cluster-fucky then they most likely cleaned that up for you a bit, but I'd do some personal investigation before making an executive decision to buy a game that you might not like due to some unforeseen issues you have.

In fairness to him he just exaggerated but he wasn't outright lying at least on 2 of his points. Originally Posted by Darkrulerxxx

He mentioned Pokemon. That's basically what pet battles are and if you think differently team rocket will kick your ass.
He mentioned FarmVille. This is where he lost me and I dont know what in game reference that is.
So 2/3 confirmed to be very near what he said.
Someone explain the 3rd please.

Meh I think bc is probably the best one. Originally Posted by Aoyi

For shame, why can't we let the game ruin it for you?Don't worry about the GW2 fanboys. This is a solid expansion.Last edited by Frioz; 2012-09-28 at 09:20 PM.

Don't listen to this guy, he is hating WoW all over the forum. Originally Posted by Dagoroth23

BTW, this comes from a previous hater.
But guess what, we don't fucking care anymore. That's our opinion. Originally Posted by Dagoroth23
