Rating: -
I got the game but soon found out it gave no further time on my WOW account, which i had expected it to do, and therefore i could not play it until i had purchased time online. Otherwise, this game is great with tons of fun and diversity to be had. Never is there nothing to do!

Be aware, this game awards who has 24 hours of available playing time. If you are casual player, you will never be able to compete in their PVP. Their arena awards only the skilled player with good group. If you are not a good player like most of the people are and don't have good group, you will always get pwned. Also it takes forever to get a PVE group, it's just frustrating.

The quests are the same, the objectives are the same, and the ultimate aim of playing is the same. I thought that the expansion would revitalize my interest in this game after going quite some time without playing it regularly, and it failed, miserably.
It still requires an unreasonable amount of time to get ahead in the game once you're max level, which is the very same problem I had with WoW before the expansion. I quit playing because I didn't have time to raid. Sure, I had plenty of time to level characters (which you can reasonably do with 1-2 hours of play per night), but I knew that I would hit the exact same brick wall I did when I hit 60.
If you don't have the time or energy to raid 6-8 hours every night, you're not going to get ahead in this game.

WoW has set the bar for all MMORPG's period. This is the one only expansion to the game since it first came out (Nov '05.) BC has brought in 2 new playable races, new lands, dungeons and creatures and a whole host of quests and tweaks/refinements. Blizzard has done a remarkable job of keeping content fresh and balanced (although for the last few months, since May '08 really, the veterans are getting edgy for lack of new material.) You know they are close to the mark when the voices behind the pros and cons of a change or addition are fairly equal in nature. Blizzard has also done a very good job of policing it's community. That in itself hands them a 10 out of 10 in my book. Play is easy to master, the world is boundless (at least for the first year or so) and just about every individual fantasy desire is accommodated: individual play against the environment (PvE), player vs player (PvP), community guilds, special events, team or group play and of course it's quests, dungeons, creatures and landscapes. Enough content for the casual as well as the hardcore player. The players behind the characters are from all over the world, another plus. Their graphics engine is getting dated and it is showing, compared to say LoTR and the more recent Connan, but with BC Blizzard has done a adequate job of giving the game a quasi new look and feel. OK - NOW, everyone needs to be aware that the game is HIGHLY addictive and without parental or personal boundaries it could become a very negative issue in ones real life. Plus it is very expensive! $15 a month per account is steep by any measure. At 10 million players world wide, that is a quite a revenue base. Addictive behavior is a personal issue, but the cost, while not prohibitive, is a real nuisance especially when things go south and you can't play the game in the time frame you've allowed yourself, or you're allowed, to play within.

With over 157 reviews this hardly needs my imput but I feel compelled to warn people... this game is highly addictive! The graphics and user interface is so liquid you feel as if you are really there.. and somehow this alternate reality becomes real. You are there. I'm hooked!
