I came from text based MUDs myself so seeing graphics at all was amazing to me - but then the WoW graphics were pretty kick-ass on their own as well!<br /><br />I know a lot of people complain these days that the graphics need to be updated, and while I would like some more pixels on the older races I quite like the cartoon-style of the game compared to more realistic looking games. Maybe that's just me - but it seems fitting somehow.<br /><br />Also, no wonder you love shoulders - they always look so much bigger and better on orcs! :)Sagahttp://spellbound.nu/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8910013154610753298.post-65083023237941764032011-02-10T22:05:24.263+00:002011-02-10T22:05:24.263+00:00Your wide-eyed amazement reminds me much of my own...Your wide-eyed amazement reminds me much of my own experience, which was in TBC. My friend made a Troll and I, a Blood Elf. He met up with our mutual friend in Org and told me to come join them (at level 6). I looked at the map, looked at the ocean, and said no way. Our friend told me to go to Undercity (which I envisioned as some sprawling, epic city going under the entire ocean - how else would they connect?). I looked at the map again. At the path through Eversong, Ghostlands, Eastern & Western Plaguelands...and said again, NO WAY.<br /><br />Fun times. :)Radeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07258438792268722044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8910013154610753298.post-3221640160029548192011-02-10T21:25:21.702+00:002011-02-10T21:25:21.702+00:00"Looking back on it and it's been 4, near..."Looking back on it and it's been 4, nearly 5 years since I started playing and, even though some aspects of the game bore me, some still make me feel like a 16 year old, who wants his mum to take a look at how awesome this green guy looks." - Aww bless your cotton socks Jak *hugs*<br /><br />I still feel like that often though - when I make a new character, or find a new outfit - I grab someone (usually Himself or Youngest) and go 'oh oh - looook!' One of the (many) things I love about WoW is after, ahem, 6 (I think) years of playing, I'm STILL discovering 'new' stuff - whether its characters, or quest text, or flavour text or places. It goes a long way to keeping the game feeling fresh.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
