Well, I caved and started playing again. The Death Knight is without a doubt the most fun class to play as (which is fantastic, because it was my favorite Hero class in Warcraft III, and a class I was hoping would be playable when WoW launched).
I really like the new Artifact weapon system so far, and the more structured story is very nice.
I'm glad people are liking this again. I eventually went back to trying ret pally and the changes from beta are huge. It's fun to play now and my main again. I've tried a few times and never could get into a DK. Maybe later this xpac I'll give it a try again.

Okay coming home from blizzcon. Things I'm excited for:
The class mounts look awesome.
The new pvp brawls look fun, a low visibility winter arathi? Sudden gravity shifts? They look super fun.
The tomb looks interesting.
And we're going to argus at the end of the expac?! Whaaat?
Well, really enjoying most of the expansion. One part of the Demon Hunter Order Hall quest really bugs me, but the rest is quite awesome.
Biggest gripe so far: Levelling my characters to 100. I didn't play Panda for more than two days, and I didn't play Warlords at all. But if I want to put my characters into Legion content? I have to go through the stuff that drove me out of the game.
I am actually excited to work on alts for the first time in...ever. I want to see the class stories unfold, customize my characters with their artifacts and transmog sets (I love what they did with the Transmog system).
Progress is stalling out a bit (around 840 on most of my gear), so I'll have to try Heroics and Mythics and LFR... But still, been a really solid core so far. I hope they take these systems further.
What's new in the lore recently?
New in retail I have no idea. But here's a picture of my warrior at the end of vanilla

Is that Thunder Fury and Illidan's Weapon?
Yep

I thought those were like damn hard and grindy to get. How old school are you, Matt?

I checked the internet.Sylvanas get a redemption like Illidan. Why am I not surprised?
I noticed all the popular characters are from the Warcraft 3 Era. They were unable to develop an original character that is popular enough from the MMO?
The writing has gone considerably downhill over the years. Even the novels that come out between games aren't as good as they used to be.
Getting the legendaries is a lot of luck and time consuming and everything else, but not as much as earning the pvp titles were. That was a grind more intense than anything I've previously done in the game, and I've done a lot.

I've been thinking about finally getting into WoW with my mates for WoLK. The general consensus is that they're going to play that for a bit then be gone forever.
It's probably the best time period to be a new player, really.

There is a new expansion coming! Dragonflight or something! God damn it. Make warcraft 4 already!
