Excellent. This was the only thing keeping me from preloading Cataclysm.

I logged in a while back to find all my items and gold gone. I contacted support and they told me something to the effect of "we have no tools to get your stuff back right now but check back in a few months." I immediately uninstalled the game and never cared to look back.

Why hasn't Blizzard patched or said anything about the 4.0.1 bugs? The dungeon and BG disconnects are especially bad. I've had to stop playing until they get those fixed.

You're definitely missing out on a good story, in that case.

Basically, the team got too big and implemented too many unimportant features and didn't polish the important ones enough.

Is there any more voice acting in Catacylsm than there is now, or all the quests still walls of text?

Right, don't educate yourself, just delete your character. Good idea.

Interesting how "an emphasis on storytelling" suddenly changes an MMO into a singleplayer game, as if it is by some sort of strange rule that storytelling in MMOs needs to be poor.

That's a really strange conclusion, considering that he rather strictly stated that it would be a "dream game" for "If you are a hardcore, traditional Bioware fan a Mass Effect or especially Dragon [Age] fan..." and I haven't lately heard that Mass Effect and Dragon Age were considered "casual" games.

Are you just trying to convince yourself at all costs that this is a bad game?

Okay. Then...why don't you group?
