Cataclysm
For those in the know, or those that don't live on Mars, World of Warcraft: Cataclysm is out. It's the last big hit of 2010 and I don't know if I can jump back in.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love World of Warcraft. From the lore to the incredibly immersive world, Blizzard has crafted what I consider a perfect fantasy world. What absolutely kills it for me each time I come back is the community. Granted, I play on one of the oldest servers in the game, but WoW has a reputation for making Xbox Live look like and example of tolerance.
What draws me back is the chance to play with old friends again, new classes, and a totally revised world. I really want to create a Worgen and unleash the fury as a warrior.
What gives me pause, is the community. I hate them with a passion. Stories like this are what keep me at bay. It's a community full of elitists unwilling to help. Thankfully, I have a group of friends to play with, but do I really want to get back on the crack pony?
