World of Warcraft
Josefbugman:
It was pretty rubbish, but at least it was rubbish on a big scale, and I kind of like generic fantasy every so often.
cyro:
I'm not gonna saw Cataclysm's an awesome story, 'cause it isn't. What is better though are the story telling devices throughout and the storytelling in general. I complete a quest line in Cataclysm and I feel like I've accomplished something (besides lootwhoring).
The End of Mount Hyjal has you solo fight a raid (with help from a few NPCs.) Vashj'ir's final quest is basically an Interactive Cinematic, Deepholm see's you protecting the Earthen Ring as the put the World Pillar back together.
It's pretty epic, in a cheesy Hammerfall kind of way.
Still, I get it's not for everyone and I think I'm done defending it when I much prefer Bioware game anyways.

This seems patently untrue to me. Vanilla WoW quests were uniformly small time shit until Naxx came about. It was the sort of game where you were supposed to be some big goddamn hero but mostly you spent your time wandering around doing unrelated shit like collecting booze for dwarves. Things like the Tirion Fordring quest line were the exception and not the norm whereas now 1 outta 3 quests is at least part of some overarching quest line that usually culminates in an event of some sort. I read what you say but all I end up hearing is "I'm burnt out on WoW. Totally, totally burnt out."
Josefbugman:
I meant Warcraft 3, original WoW I found interesting because MMO's were so new to me. And yeah, WoW's original quests weren't inovative, but my God were they new for younger me! I had no idea games could be made like this, and all these people and other things!
Then TBC came out and I spent a lot of time basically enjoying feeling fairly good at what I did and occasionally going away for a week but thinking about WoW a fair amount. Then WoTLK happened and I was psyched... up until there was nothing added after the argent tournament that I could or wanted to do. All of the dungeons had been run a billion times, I didn't want to get any better gear because I wasn't going to use it to raid and finally, I just got sick of WoW's plot and WoW in general.
