Next World Of Warcraft Raid Dungeon

GrandGranini writes "The New York Times has an interview with World Of Warcraft Lead Game Designer Jeff Kaplan (Tigole), in which he talks about the next raid dungeon after Ahn'Quiraj, the necropolis Naxxramas." From the article: "Naxxramas is going to be the most difficult thing in the game until the expansion pack comes out. It will be the pinnacle, and it's absolutely massive. You'll see this big necropolis floating above Eastern Plaguelands. It's a 40-man raid zone, and it's bigger than the Undercity [one of the main cities in the game]. Things could change, but we're up to something like 18 bosses in there, and they are really cool, too. But it's going to be hard. Really hard. We're hoping to release it in the spring." If you told me two years ago that I'd be reading about an upcoming instance in the sport section of the NYT, I'd have called you a damn dirty liar. May you live in interesting times, indeed.

    John Wayne was a Nazi
    He liked to play SS
    Kept a picture of Adolf,

    Sure he would torture your pa
    Sure he would march you up to the wall
    Sure he would hang you by your last ball

    Too bad Blizzard considers the following general chat yell to be offensive, "OZ [the name of her guild] is recruiting all levels ¦ We are not 'GLBT only,' but we are 'GLBT friendly'! (guilduniverse.com/oz)" The player who said this was threatened with account suspension by the WoW gamemasters. Check out http://www.innewsweekly.com/innews/?class_code=Ga& article_code=1172 for the full story. My wife and I are canceling our accounts as a result.

      Gah that's lame, I played on shadow moon (pvp server) with that guild master (not naming character as she didn't in the article) and at first was annoyed by the GLBT advertising, but then saw how many people said offensive things in both local and guild chat (hence why I did not join some guilds) that made a need for GLBT friendly guilds, especially on a PvP server where trash talking is a lot different than on a regular or RP server.

      Sadly a lot of people are probably equally offended by both sides of the argument existing in a game such as WoW because its basically mainstream now.

      Bah that sucks.
