5 of 6 people found the following review helpful: It's never too late to start playing WoW 6/5/2007 I have to admit, I was very apprehensive starting to play WoW Burning Crusade well after the release date. But, am I ever glad I did. This game is addicting and lots of fun. I was worried it would be difficult to start playing a game when you are Level-1 and other guys are Level-70. But, that just wasn't the case. The starting quests are such that you remain in a few general areas until you get past about Level-20, after that you venture out into the larger world (but even the starting areas are vast). The other good thing about starting the game late in the cycle is the noob areas aren't overly crowded. Nobody is stealing your quests, no queues for quests, but there are still enough people around to get a good group going for a good Elite quest. Until a week ago, I have never played WoW, but I have played Guild Wars and Lord of the Rings Online. While some of the other games have better graphics and worlds you may be familiar with due to movies (such as LOTRO), they have nothing up on WoW. The WoW interface is easy to learn, work with, and customize. The WoW worlds are large and provide enough variety to keep things fun. One week into the game, I have a Level-20 Blood Elf Rogue and have cancelled my LOTRO account. Another good thing about WoW is that it works well for high-end and low-end systems. I play on my desktop, which is a high-end 8800GTX-based system and it plays great. I also play on my notebook, which is just an ok system with integrated graphics. It works well on my notebook as well. Bottom line, if you are thinking about starting to play WoW, stop thinking and do it. The Burning Crusade expansion pack is a good way to start. You don't need a Level-60 character to enjoy the expansion pack, you can start one of the new races and still play in the new environment. It's never too late to start playing WoW Thank You.

Also, I have raided all dungeons up to Naxxramas. The Burning Crusade is by far the best expansion, and expands the formula of World of Warcraft even more. Blizzard really fixed the problems with gear, the lack of endlevel dungeons, lack of raid content, boss design, and quest rewards. I will discuss these five things in detail. ~ GEAR ~ Pre-BC: The difference between raiders and casual players was huge. Players who werent decked in epic gear didnt stand a chance against other players who did. Even players in Tier 1 (easiest epic set to get at the time) could kill players in blues without even trying. BC: The difference between raid gear and dungeon gear isnt very big any longer. I replaced my entire Tier 2 set and my epic weapons from raiding by the time I hit around level 66ish. After having over 20 days /played at 70, I have to say I am having a lot more to do at 70. Very good trinkets and weapons are easily obtainable by dungeon runs, and endgame content is fairly easy (with the exception of Serpentshrine Cavern, The Eye, and Black Temple). However, it is now fair competition between epic'd players and blue'd players. Gladiator PVP gear is amazingly powerful and the weapons are on-par with most of the weapons from Karazhan and Serpentshrine. If you have a team of skilled players, it wont be long to obtain these crazy Gladiator sets. ~ DUNGEONS ~ Pre-BC: After getting your attunements done, you had 2 options in terms of dungeons: do UBRS, scholomance, or stratholme for sub-par gear, or spend 4 hours a night raiding MC, BWL, AQ40, Naxx, ZG, and AQ20 for epic gear that is nearly 2x as powerful as non-epic gear. The dungeons were boring and got old quickly. BC: As soon as you enter the outlands, you are greeted by 4 dungeon hubs of ~4 dungeons of different levels. The gear from these dungeons will most definitely replace your level 60 gear. Every level you gain you will be able to do another dungeon to get shiny new gear. And as soon as you hit 70, over 5 dungeons open up for you (all hosting INCREDIBLY powerful gear). There are plenty of quests for these dungeons, and they are all very interesting and look different from one another. They are all very straight forward and dont really get old. ~ RAID CONTENT ~ Pre-BC: Most people finished with content very quickly and ended up waiting for a new dungeon to come out. Yes, I was there when Blackwing Lair came out and it was BUGGY as hell and no one got ANYWHERE. Yes, I endured through the horribly designed pre-C'Thun trash in AQ40, and yes I was there when the C'Thun encounter was terribly buggy and no one could do anything in phase 2. Then Naxxramas came out and raiders rejoiced because it was the best dungeon made and I couldnt agree more. BC: The new dungeons and bosses (which I will get into later) are amazing to say. The environments and atmosphere of each raid dungeon is different and they all have a certain feel to them. A Karazhan run feels like an adventure through an old abandoned run-down castle full of monsters and the undead. Gruuls lair feels like an epic journey through the cave of an incredibly powerful monster. Magtheridon's Lair (whom you are teased by in Blood Furnace) feels like a prison holding an ancient, wise, and destructive monster...and it is! These dungeons are all these things, they are alive, they are vibrant, and they are FUN. ~ BOSS DESIGN ~ Pre-BC: Ragnaros was the introduction of the horrible resistance checks in WoW. I can think of around 8-10 encounters that were resist checks and stupid gear checks (Vael/huhuran and twin emps/patchwerk, respectively) that prevented progression in the 4 40 mans. With the exception of Naxxramas and Blackwing Lair, all these dungeons were filled with trash mobs and you spent more time clearing trash than doing bosses. The bosses just were NOT fun. BC: The boss encounters in the Burning Crusade are a HUGE improvement over their predecessors. New, different encounters such as netherspite and shade of aran, and just plain fun ones like the chess event are just a few to name. They are all very fun, and are definitely worth wiping on, the pleasure and burst of excitement when you down these challenging bosses after nights of wiping are awesome. Also, with the 10/25 man caps, it is much easier to start/join a raiding guild that gets somewhere. The content isnt as crazy as Naxxramas was at 60, but they still require the same level of organization, skill, and teamwork. ~ QUEST DESIGN ~ Pre-BC: Not much to say besides that the quests in Azeroth are stupid, annoying, and the rewards are HORRIBLE and USELESS. They are all very similar and they are very repetitive. BC: All the quests are awesome and different. While you still have those grind + kill + get x of this quests, you have an assortment of new quests as well. You can summon bosses, and do bombing missions, they are all new, and they are all pure fun. I even love questing at 70, the money and even some of the loot are great to have. I am working on the Netherdrake questline at the moment, and I cant wait to have my own transparent giant dragon to fly around the outlands on. There are loads of quests leftover at 70, and they all have very good rewards at the end of each chain. Why doesn't the Burning Crusade get a 5/5 overall? For one reason: they did not revamp Azeroth. Revisiting Azeroth at 70 is like attending a funeral, its stupid, and its pathetic how useless anything from Azeroth is at 70. The quests leading up to level 58 (when you can enter outlands)still have sub par rewards, and besides the opening of Karazhan and Caverns of Time, they have done absolutely NOTHING with the world outside of BC. I believe they really need to revamp the questlines and the rewards to make it more rewarding for people to go back to Azeroth to do the old quests and content. Other than that, The Burning Crusade is the most extensive expansion to a game I have seen, and it is definitely worth the $40 to jump on the ship. I tip my hat to Blizzard for making an incredibly fun and rewarding game even better. Thank You. Was this review helpful?

It's more of a tip for those who are looking into World of Warcraft and are wondering if they should invest in the expansion early. I was told that unless you wanted to play one of the new races, that the expansion wasn't worth buying until you were getting close to level 60. Granted most of the material that comes with the expansion is level 58+, I found that it's worth having at the lower levels, even though I haven't tried EITHER of the new races, and don't have any high level characters yet. Basically, I bound my hearth to Shattrath, which has portals to all 4 main cities within your faction. There's also an enchanting trainer in Shattrath, so players won't find it necessary to travel to Uldaman just for training. Just these two things alone made the expansion worth buying! Thank You.

I do wish that there was more customization of characters - at least the ability to change hairstyles. 70 levels later, I'm a little sick of looking at the back of my head. Other than minor changes like that - it's still a well balanced games that I continue to enjoy. I can't wait for levels up to 100! Thank You. Was this review helpful?
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Absolutely Mind Blowing Fun!! 5/14/2007 This game takes hours away from your day to day life. I enjoy playing this game on a daily basis; I have played this game daily for the past month and a half and still have not made the cut-off of level 40. This is the point in the game that it really becomes fun. I am a level 38 and so close I can taste it. Blizzard took the cake with this one and I love every minute of play time that I get. The graphics, the playability, the interaction with fellow WOW addicts, there is nothing like it. If I sould give it more stars, I would. Have fun and let me know what you think. Thank You.
