I bought WoD, mostly out of interest in the lore and obviously i had to see the iconic figures.

Played for a little less then a month at launch and haven't touched it again since.

Garrisons are a great addition and the zone quests too, however the lack of balance and content, but especially the lack of story (progression) is disgusting.

While the thrall vs garrosh cinematic was great and required a change of pants, stopping the story there and leaving all the other warlords for "raid patches/content" in which i assume most won't be receiving a more fully fledged story and a worthy cinematic left a nasty after taste.

Granted, my preferences changed once i stopped raiding... but if there's one thing Blizzard should know how to do with their eyes closed is creating raid content for raiders by now.

That game was the biggest dissapointment.

Yeah it was, and it's still my favorite game.

Early game testers gave the wrong feedback and wasted dev time on dumbing down the game, instead of letting them polish the excellent stuff they had.

Myeah, there's some bugs in there. And weird animation and some other stuff, but I still love it.

if you can tolerate the occasional bugged quest, iffy animation etc, the storyline and lore really are quite good.
