Blizzard Continues Expansion “Blackout”
It’s tough waiting for a game you’re excited about. I almost wish I didn’t know something was being released until the day before it happened. Think about it. When you’re going to the movies and you see the trailer for the next Batman (or whatever piques your interest) and you get all psyched and excited only to get hit with the release date…
“Coming in (sometime over a year from now)”
Wonderful.
Blizzard, for it’s part, has been no better. I want to play Starcraft 2, but who knows how long until that game comes to fruition. Worse still is the newest expansion for World of Warcaft, Wrath of the Lich King. Blizzard has been very tight-lipped about what exactly we’ll see when the game is released. They’ve trickled out information here and there, but nothing of real substance. The forums seem to be a place to vent their frustration about them being so tight-lipped. Neth, a Blizzard CM, had this cryptic response:
“The great thing about vapor is that at some point it condenses and becomes rain. The rain then falls and nourishes that which it falls on. It takes time for it to happen, but it does happen. Signs point to clouds forming in the sky, but you never can tell when they will let loose the rain…”
So it appears that there is a large amount of information waiting on the horizon, but they’re not at liberty to discuss the details. Whatever it is, it better be good, because as Tom Petty says, the waiting is the hardest part.
