You know, when I’m not posting blogs on all of the moonkin changes in Cataclysm, I play this little game called World of Warcraft. Maybe you’ve heard of it.
So I figured, it might be a good idea to give you guys an update to what I’ve been doing, what I’ve been thinking, what I’ve been messing with.
Progression, gear, professions, money making. This is getting crazy!
Every week over on Blog Azeroth – a small community of World of Warcraft bloggers – a shared topic is announced every week. A topic that we can chip in on, if we are so inclined. And I am! This weeks topic asks us what we do to prepare ourselves for Cataclysm.
First of all, I still think that Cataclysm is many months away. It is difficult to really gauge when Blizzard might push it out, and there are tons of different factors: How long can they keep people entertained with the current content available in World of Warcraft? There are still plenty of people going through Icecrown Citadel, and Ruby Sanctum is coming as well. I’d say a few more months, at least, would be in order.
At this point, we would be relatively close to Blizzcon, scheduled for October 22nd 2010. If Blizzard were to release Cataclysm before Blizzcon, then they might as well shut down the World of Warcraft hall. Unless they plan to reveil their next expansion – the one coming after Cataclysm – it seems unlikely that we will see Cataclysm on this side of Blizzcon. Blizzcon’s logo even shows Deathwing – alongside with Kerrigan and Diablo – and while Starcraft 2 will come out before Blizzcon, I doub that Cataclysm will.
So I am taking my time. I’m not stressing. That being said, I am making preperations and there are things I have to consider.
