Quote:You really don't see a design issue with the fact that you're supposed to run the same thing for 1.5 years? Leaving aside the issue of whether you like it or not, you really think this is good design?
It's not perfect design, no.
I just think it manages to jump well over the bar of "insane". It seems to accomplish most of what Blizzard wants in terms of getting more people to see more content. People who are content to farm Karazhan forever will farm Karazhan forever, and that's okay. People who hate Karazhan but insist on farming it anyway... well, not much that can be done to keep masochists from hurting themselves.
People will get gear. People will run new instances. I know we on Terenas will.
Things continue as normal. The design is still leaps and bounds past where it was in the Molten Core days, and people still loved it then.

Afterthought: How is is a "fact" that you're "supposed" to run Karazhan? Isn't it just one of a whole raft of options for gearing and playing now?
