I had especially been looking forward to the new Worgen and Goblin races. So now I have three new Worgen toons,and one Hordie Goblin toon.Which so far makes a grand total of 8 toons.
I have found the new environments to be quite dazzling.The quests for levels 80+ are not too difficult,but despite the mad XP you get for each one,it might take you some time to level.I hit 81 after the third day. I'm not as quick as my younger friends.
My new Worgens are quite cool.I have a new dual-specced DK;a Mage and a Warlock.The DK starting area is the same,with only minor changes.The speed of the DK is fantastic.The mobs are dead before I realize it.The starting area for the other Worgen toons is very dark and spooky,with crazed Worgens running at you all the time.Fun.Watch out you don't get bitten by one!!! Mwahahahahah!
The Goblin I chose,a Hunter,is cool-looking.She looks a little sleepy,but she runs around in her souped-up hot rod completing initial quests and does it with speed and lots of giggling.The music and environment of the Goblin/Horde faction encourage you to stay to see what's next.So far it's been great fun.
The music in the game,both factions,has changed almost entirely.Once again,the ambient music adds a lot to each battle/area/quest,etc.
The new second-tier profession of archaeology has proven to be a lot of fun,albeit time-consuming. Which is fine with me because I don't want to spend every second in a raging battle.
The drops from the mobs have been upgraded to fantastic!!! Green is the new purple,I think,or is it blue is the new purple?Either way,the gear is quite amazing and I have been outfitting my higher-level toons with some sweet new gear.
There are too many new things to comment on here,but suffice it to say that I am enjoying Cata very much.I don't understand the nay-sayers who are disappointed.Things change,and perhaps if you give it a little while,you may find you will he happy about it too.
The first thing you'll do when you enable Cataclysm (yes, "enable," the DVD is just a prop, you already have Cataclysm installed if you play World of Warcraft) is you'll go to the flight master at the top of Orgrimmar and you'll buy so-called "Old World Flying," for 250 gold (modified by faction). Then you'll fly around for a few minutes (some will get lost flying around and won't actually do any of the new content for hours). Then you'll follow one of the bread-crumb quests to one of the two new questing zones. Not only, will the first few quests you do replace any gear you might have (the very best raiding gear from the old expansion is marginally better than these questing rewards, only because it tends to be gemmed, enchanted and otherwise augmented as much as possible.
If you're the sort that wants to start one of the new races, they're both highly entertaining. The starting areas for both races are basically story-lines that introduce them The Horde (Goblins) or The Alliance (Worgen). For the Goblins, this involves the tropical island of Kezan which you will leave after the introductory quests, but it's memorable, and everyone should probably play through it once. The Worgen are locked into the new zone of Gilneas, and start as a human who will be transformed into a Worgen through the introductory quests. It's all sufficiently epic, and you'll stand against The Horde early on in your career.
Other new features for Cataclysm owners only:
* Higher trade skill caps with many interesting new items to make
* A new trade skill that everyone gets: Archeology
* Heroic (max-level) versions of two classic dungeons: Shadowfang Keep and Deadmines
* The new Goblin and Worgen player races
What you already have if you play World of Warcraft, and don't have to pay extra for:
* 2 new ways to get quests (by location, by killing a key creature)
* Thousands of re-vamped quests in the old world (just leveling up a new alt is an expansion in itself, now)
* A guild leveling system where your guild gains perks as members move through the content.
* Tons of new items for level 80 characters to use that will be for sale on the auction house
Play, enjoy!
