We have all the heard the phrase "back in my day we used to..." and
while most of us roll our eyes at the old timer as they wax nostalgic
about walking uphill in the snow both ways, many of us can empathize as
we think back to our favorite memories. Adages like this also hold true
in persistent world gaming, where new content is constantly churned out
to keep the virtual hamsters spinning in our wheels and to keep the
game fresh and alive. With the largest percentage of its current player
base picking up the game at the launch of one of its two expansions, World
of Warcraft
is a game full of long abandoned content and zones that many only catch
fleeting glimpses of as they power level their way to catch up with
friends. With the revamping of Onyxia and the anticipation of the
complete overhaul the old world is going to get in Catacylsm,
the wheel have begun to turn in the wayback machine, join Medawky this
week as he looks back in time and wonders what other content would make
for compelling encounters as Wrath
of the Lich King winds down.
addition to Lord Kazzak and the world dragons, vanilla WoW featured
several world epic bosses that were triggered by quests. These events
ran the spectrum from solo to group to full raid parties and added a
huge level of immersion to the game that has been, in my opinion,
lacking from the current build of the game. With the reintroduction of
Onyxia both the priest and hunter epics could get a revamp as well as
finding a way to bring back something akin to Thunderfury.
