WarCry's Exclusive Preview of The Burning Crusade

John Funk has taken the time to experience Blizzard's upcoming expansion to World of WarCraft, The Burning Crusade. In his journeys, he's provided a wealth of content for our WoW WarCry and today is no different as he gives us an extensive preview of the expansion that launches tomorrow.

People picking up TBC will find that life beyond the Dark Portal on the broken world of Outland is not much different from life on Azeroth. You've got ten more levels to gain, a slew of new talent points and abilities, and shiny new worlds to explore, but at the core, it's more of the same. Most of the quests and tasks you'll be asked to accomplish revolve around the "kill a certain thing or enough types of a certain thing or get a certain item from the bodies of dead certain things" paradigm, which will undoubtedly be familiar to MMO-players in general. TBC does offer more quests with objectives that don't involve mass indiscriminate slaughter, though often you'll find yourself having to kill in order to complete the task anyway. It's to be expected and not wholly unwelcome, though I would have honestly liked to see even more variety in terms of quest objectives.
