April Fools! Wait... What?
This is the kind of thing I expect from blizzard when we hit April every year. Most people seem to be having the same "surely not" reaction, but it's true.
Come Cataclysm, Hillsbrad will be home to a new questline/minigame: Plants Vs Zom- er, I mean Peacebloom Vs Ghouls... seriously.
Despite the quasi-disbelief and misgivings, the game seems to be impressing people so far - take a look at the video to see what I mean. Take note people - on this day Blizzard hath taken the first pioneering (damning?) step towards a game that houses many other games, similar to that which Sony wanted to do with Home, only not... crap.
Mount news:
The horde guild mount is going to be a scorpion, apparently. We'll be able to buy them from our guild vendor once we hit Glevel 25.
Alchemists are getting a mount of their own... sorta.
Meet the Sandstone Drake, result of the Vial of the Sands alchemy BoP. Rather than riding one, using this mount actually turns you into the dragon. Once you're a dragon, you get to let someone mount you, like any good dragon wo- Oh, get your minds out the gutter people... *sigh*
Needless to say (being a shifter myself) that I am immediately switching to alchemy; it's not even up for discussion.
Finally, the Alliance crybabies have been wailing about the fact that worgen will not be getting a mount of their own (the nightelves are tired of fiddling with cats and horses).
However, the soon-to-be worgen population (colloquially known as Blood-elves) are ecstatic; they get to run around on all fours and make pretend like they're in Twilight instead.
Good news for the Horde all-round I'd say.
Until next time,
Ahzae, Lord of the Trifling Gnome
