Looking forward

to Cataclysm.

I’ve finally gotten a chance to poke at some of the new guild information and it’s pretty exciting.

But before we look forward, let’s take a peek backward.

Back when I was watching the BlizzCon stream last year (and I was just gifted with the stream for this year for my birthday, thank you Anna and Soth!), the guild perks section really caught my attention. Of course, it was something really exciting so there was hardly any meat to it. Looks like my notes from the first day were:

New thing, not a lot of detail… you can advance your guild form level 1 to 20 by doing dailies, raids, and Battlegrounds. Higher levels will give access to abilities; possibly things like cheaper repairs or less durability loss, maybe even being able to do a mass resurrect when you wipe.

Second day had more goodies, here’s what I gleaned:

Finally

Congratz to Shadow Rising for the Lich King kill!

Late to the Bandwagon – RealID

OK, so I was sick when all the RealID on the forums crap hit the fan. By the time I was coherent enough to comprehend what was going on, it was too late and the powers that be had already said, “Oopsie!”

But like I’m going to let that stop me from posting about it.

Let me just say off the bat, I do not like RealID – in it’s current incarnation.

In game, I think it was executed poorly.

My mother plays WoW, as do several of my very close friends.

I love them all, really I do.

*Thunk*

“Ow!”

“Did you find the light switch yet?”

“Not unless it’s hard and at toe level.”

*shuffle*

“Found something.”

*flick*

-bzzzzzzztttt-

-flicker-

-flicker-

*cough*

“Wow. Look at all the dust.”

*sneeze*

…

And so it is not with a roar or a shout or a battle cry that I return, but with a sneeze. Maybe even a sniffle.
