Thank you very much, Kauket, thank you for sharing some of the things that you have found to help you get the experience you want out of the game, and out of the computer, too!

I have some hand issues myself, and have added foot buttons/pedals to assist: http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b186/Washu0/WoW/footbuttons.jpg

Those are from http://www.stealthswitch2.com/ which I will shamelessly plug as they’ve functioned beautifully after a few setup hiccups.

Where do you go when the players are looking to kill the actual gods and usurp their place to find some kind of challenge?

now there is an interesting idea

I’m kinda wondering if your own faction’s leaders might be an enemy in the expansion after Mists…

With each faction going in to take the resources of Pandara, it might get ugly not just against the other faction, but against the Pandaran’s themselves.

What would happen if you as a night elf, or worgan, or even human… and you saw some of the massive failings of the leaders of the allience… would you defect?

What got me thinking about this was the pandaran’s being a nuetral race and then chosing factions… City of Heroes Going Rogue did this as well, with a group called Pretorians… which could be any power set, then you choose a side afterwards.

It also introduced a morality system that allowed Villians to go Rogue after doing several quests, then go from rogue to a full fledged hero… and visa versa. It’s kinda neat, it wasn’t something that could be done frivolously (since it took a minimum of 22 quests to go from one faction to the other, and you were limited to 5 per day (and a pretty nasty final mission at each step).

I want my Hoard Gnome damnit!

I might be speaking heresy here, but I have yet to gather 40 of those tokens from the firelands. It was boring doing the same daily quests over and over and over and over again. And then there were those feats of dexterity requiring abilites, that I no longer have, due to hand injuries and arthritis. No, I am not jumping on the pink wagon in namby pamby land, but my days of being able to jump and move are at an end. So, I leave the gathering of the fireland tokens to the younger more agile crowd. :)

Practically, PvP is one of the best ways to really extend a game, as it’s about the most dynamic content in modern MMO design. Trouble is that it just doesn’t work for everyone. Maybe the endgame for WoW design is heavy PvP… but that means a restricted appeal. *shrug*

Of course, I have a few ideas for making truly dynamic worlds and different long-term MMOs, but they would require a pretty big revamp of what WoW actually *is*. :)

I still think we have at least one more Old God to kill. And there is always Sargeras. Azeroth is the one world he hasn’t been able to conquer.
