Shared Topic: Initial Thoughts on Cataclysm

I bet you’d all be very shocked if I told you that WoW’s latest expansion, Cataclysm, came out last week. Right. Completely shocked.

Anyway, most of us dove headfirst into the game, making our way to 85 or exploring the new races. Some of us dove in with a passion and WoW binged for a days (am guilty of this…my eyes still hurt like heck from the grind), others leisurely strolled through everything the new expansion had to offer. And as good, fantastic bloggers, we wrote about it.

Jaedia from Jaedia’s Menagerie was the one who thought of making the theme a Shared Topic:

What are your initial thoughts about the Cataclysm expansion?

It’s a topic you can take anywhere you’d like. What’s your favourite new zone? What do you think of the instances? Any screenshots you’d like to share? Anything you’re excited to get started on? Whatever might come to mind regarding the main question

As for this week (or for what’s left of it), the topic is one of real life and WoW colliding. Not necessarily in a bad sense. Rather, does your real life sometimes infiltrate your WoW life? Do you catch yourself handling situations or reacting to things in gaming using your real life experience? Blog about it and post a link over at Blog Azeroth!
