Fail of the Lich King. I’m also back
So patch 3.3 is upon us. Well, mostly upon everyone else except me, because exactly two months ago was the last day I was logged in.
So to celebrate this great event, tonight I shall reinstall the game, since the updater refuses to work (something about not finding wow.exe and I cba to google it). After the reinstall, depending whether it will take me a few hours or my whole life, I shall reactivate my subscription and play the game once more.
Why quit in the first place? Well, I’ve been playing a Prot Pala for a very long time and I was tanking before it was cool (credits go here). I liked how being able to do a good job at tanking with a Paladin in TBC times was a challenge and not everyone and their mother could do it. But then came Wrath and all the bullshit changes made to the classes and I was like “meh, F-it, I want to be special and not like everyone else”. So I quit my Pala and started a few Priests (2 to be more exact, for PvP and the shizzle). Then that didn’t work out as I started a full time job and had to finish my studies and well, it all came down to me quitting the game. I had a post planned to explain the reasons on a much larger scale, but then I started reading Jong and was mesmerized so I forgot.
Long story short, if everything goes as planned, I’m back in the game and back into blogging about the game we all love.
Toodles!
PS: what really made me want to play the game again was the short movie introduced in the patch which you can see here.
PPS: when I first saw the following picture (click for full resolution), I read “Fail of the Lich King”. Anyone else in the same situation?

I also saw Fail of the Lich King — I had to read it two times … I was like … “why on earth would Blizzard name something Fail” … crazy that they didn’t notice that.
I definitely saw “Fail” at first as well (plus, this was the first link when I googled “Fail of the Lich King”). Before I took a closer look, I thought Blizzard was making fun of itself for their extended maintenance or something.
Same here, I read Fail of the Lich King before I saw that the I in Fail had a _ on it
Excellent Article!
If I could write like this I would be well chuffed
The more I read articles of such quality as this (which is rare), the more I think there might be a future for the Web. Keep it up, as it were.
