It might be interesting to see if they can pull of a *good* world event ( :angry: stupid gate opening), but the fact remains that the majority of the content is aimed towards the small group of hardcore raiders, while the content that does come out for casuals reeks of last minute hacks ( :angry: stupid D2 quests).
Sorry. I guess I'm a bit bitter about it.

I'll be bitter with you; I bought this game for PvP, and so far they've done nothing but implement a crippled Honor System, BGs that are for either server (I still strongly feel BGs should be for PvP servers only), and destroyed town and capital raiding due to DKs.
On top of this, the "new" tier2 (and I'm going to consider Naxxramas and C'thun tier3 if Naxxramas is a vertical step instead of a lateral one from BWL/Nefarian) gear, and to a lesser extent the tier1 gear, have ruined the good class balance that exists at tier0. Because of this, it's quite easy to "do well" in BGs and general PvP even if you suck horribly at it - a person in tier2 (especially melee classes, which benefit the most from improved gear) will absolutely destroy tier0 and have little trouble against tier1.
I'd love to see PvP become skill-based instead of gear-based, but I know that's not going to happen because it would mean Rob Pardo would have to wait a few more months before he can get that new Ferrari.
