World of Warcraft Orc Rant

I’ve been away from World of Warcraft for about a year now because I took some time off once the baby got more demanding. Now he is sleeping through the night and taking naps and I have all of this free time so of course I picked up the addiction again. How is this different? Well previously I only played with my husband who is really good at finding things and I just set to follow and killed and/or healed as needed. This time, however, I have more free time than he does so I’ve started making my own characters. I figured that it would be fun to do some on my own. I’d actually done this with a few Alliance characters but he mostly plays Horde so that’s what I’m doing this time.

So I made an Orc. Of all of the freaking races I have played she (my Shaman) has to be the most difficult to level ever. I mean really, what were they thinking? The quests I get are for multiple levels above where I am, they are a bajillion miles away from each other, and there are no real town with access to the profession I want until you get to O. Yeah…at like level ten if you did it by quest (I skipped to it so I could get some festival love in).

I ranted about it to hubby and he said it was because it was one of the first races and if Blizzard tried to revamp it now, old players who had leveling down would get pissed. Oh yeah? Listen up World of Warcraft….the new players are pissed. Revamp already.
