Anaxie, while I do agree with most of your refutations—supporting extra difficulties as actual "content"(and not in the lawyerspeak sense that Blizzard would have you use)is asinine.
Not to mention the fact that our bases will still be generic human/orc forts rather than Karabor and Bladespire Citadel which look several times more epic which you didn't address.
Nor did you address the fact that garrisons have gone down the toilet.
Blizzards design philosophy with WoW is to try to bite off more than they can chew, then figure out what they can actually deliver.
Its been like this since.... vanilla.
this is a great point. how many times have you seen a movie trailer with an awesome looking scene just to find out that whole scene was cut out of the movie before release? i know i've seen that happen many times. do you go ask for a refund cause that scene was in the movie? NO. do you throw a temper tantrum? NO. you enjoy the movie and move on with your life.
i trust blizzard to make a good xpac and from what i've seen in the alpha/beta streams so far, it looks pretty awesome. everyone needs to stop making so many judgements on how much or how little content WoD has until the actually play it. we've all heard the saying "Don't judge a book by its cover." same applies here. not every feature that they announce early on is gunna make it in the game. thats how development works. you add things, you remove things, you change things. its not the end of the freakin world. yeah it seems like they are removing more than they're adding but you still have no idea how it will play out.
when the game is out and there is absolutely nothing for you to do or the game sucks then you can complain. until then just shut up.
And soon companies will grow up and realize that consumers are sick and tired of bait and switch tactics to presale games. Did you really just use this argument to defend a billion dollar gaming company??? LOL
You people need to stop babying Blizzard and talking to their customers like they are a 10 year old who didn't get to go to Disney World. You SHOULD expect more! Other games do MORE. Still having fun in SoO???
I always laugh when people equate 'changes to a video game I play' to being screwed over. I'm as annoyed with the Karabor/Ashran change as anyone - but just because they've changed their design doesn't mean they've screwed you over. That's childish.
Believe me I was pissed when they announced this. But I didn't take it personally because it isn't personal. As much as I hate the change (and believe me, I effing hate it) it isn't a slap in the face or a personal attack, a broken promise or anything else. Its an annoying modification to the design of an expansion. Nothing more, nothing less.
This post is so hopelessly, incredulously full of shit that I am staggered. I salute Anaxie for having the patience to address your vast wall of stupid, hyperbolic misinformation.
Please stop posting until you are mature enough to spare other people such overwhelming degrees of ignorance.

Appreciate your time with friends and family while they're here. Don't wait until they're gone to tell them what they mean to you.
I just get this feeling that with all the cuts that there making the game is def going to get shipped at sooner then later.
Im honestly at a loss for all the hate for the new caps that were getting? I understand why people wanted the other ones but like they said its still going to be populated all thats not going to be there is a banker and portals and auctioneer. so with that being said i dont see any reason people wont still hang out there

It is truly amazing to me how much fury the internet can muster about things like this. This, and any other similar product, are pure luxuries of entertainment. How charmed a life we lead that the changes in expected content of a game seem to be among the worst thing many of us have ever experienced.
