But, but.... aren't they?

It just comes down to the fact that Blizzard is slow and lazy in releasin g new content. If they keep going on how they have 10 million subscribers than surely they have the money to create content to keep most of them happy.

So very true. They do indeed have the ressourses to add 300% more content than they currently do. But I guess they're busy polishing arenas etc.

Out of the Pre-BC group only Ragnaros and C'Thun come to the level of Arthas. Archimonde dies in that battle anyways we just help. Kil'jaedan is just a powerful eredar.

Calling Kil'jaeden "just a powerful eredar" is one of the funniest things I've heard in a long time.

Uh, Kil'jaeden isn't as powerful as the Lich King? Are you serious? Kil'jaeden created the Lich King!!!

He couldnt even keep control of the lich king.

And why would we fight Malygos hes sane now?

Well, some people really don't want to take the effort of assembling 25-man raids. With 10-man raids, you don't have to be in those big annoying elitest guilds to raid.  Instead, you can stay in a family guild with friends, and still be able to do end-game. That may piss off the elitest guild people, but do remember:

10-man Artharas- hard as hell.

25-man Artharas- hard as hell.

Does it matter? not to me. Looks like the elitests are just going to have to stop whining and realise that they don't have to spend their life in front of a computer screen to do end-game. (They can go outside now.)

Blizzard has plenty of content. They just have one problem: People who play their game way to much.

Also, I prefer quality over quantity content. This next expansion is going to kick ass. They'll keep me attacking horde towns with siege machines for YEARS.

Second rate players? No such thing. Define a first-rate player and tell me if that's anything to be proud of. So, blizzard saved y'all the emberassment and calls everyone who plays, "a WoW player."

Honestly, if I went around telling everyone that I had full tier 9 armor, and a super-netherdrake mount, I'd be forced to live in the rain-forest with Michael Jackson as an undesirable.

It's just not as fun correcting people on lore as it used to be.

ON TOPIC The 10 man versions of raids will not be casual or easy. It's only when we become used to them that they become easy. I remember back in the early days of Kara when nearly everyone would skip Netherspite because he was too hard. Zul'aman is no cake walk either. If you think any group of casuals can just walk in there and take down Zul'jin then you are an idiot. Now, just imagine a 10 man raid thats even harder than ZA. That will give you some perspective of what WotLK will be like.

Frankly I'd love to see a game that completely ignored the hard core raiders and focused solely on the casual players.

There are enough games out that already focus on hard-core raiding as it is. Besides, there are far more casual players than hard-core as can be seen by the numbers blizzard posts regarding the amount of folks that have been into and/or completed their "end game" raid zones.

Flip everything you said around regarding "ignoring hard-core" and put in casual and you'll see how the majority of the "end game" has been for casuals.

Casuals will eventually take over and I long for the day those guys from EQ1 that ruined WoW's end game can't find anything else to do. Thanks to them the end game turned into a PVE mess when it should have been a huge PVP battle like DAoC.

Dear Casuals,

If you feel so hard done by Blizzard, because as you all put it, they have ignored you for 3.5 years, then what the hell are you doing playing this game? If WoW was so anti-casual then why did it get 10 million subscribers? Why have you played it for so long even though in your own opinions Blizzard had no content for you and completely ignored you?

Answer me that. But you won't. You'll just respond by saying "you are an immature loser with no life" like my friend Pappy13 does. Or you'll just respond that my posts don't make sense. If thats the case please point about what spelling, grammatical or syntax errors I make.

Going a little mental there Washo?

I will say this: congratulations, Washo, on the Block.

Your comments are no longer worth reading. It is clear that your hate of WoW is complete and total. Why people like you feel the need to infest a WoW message board with such hate I'll never understand. I think you are the one with the voodoo doll huddled in the corner. You are the one desperately stabbing pins in to your crude effigy while madly whispering "Why are you so popular?".

P.S. Don't bother responding to this because I won't be able to see it.

I hate the game? News to me. Wish someone told me during the 3 years I played. My my total /played would indicate otherwise.

The only hate I am seeing is the hate from you towards me. So maybe get your facts right and know what you're talking about first before you start attacking me?

i think its a great idea.  most companies are idiots and change the whole thing (its either a 25 man or a 10 not both)  with the choice blizz gives you it doesn't alienate anyone and better yet supports smaller guilds
