Warcraft, I just can't quit you...

...as much as sometimes I'd like to. Every time I start getting a little tired of the game, something changes, and I've got a whole new game to play. The latest expansion has taken the usual formula of questing and amped the story quite a bit, making reading the lore quite entertaining. Janie, my long time priest companion, called it quits at level 66, so I had to respec my druid as a healer, but now that I've actually healed for a few instances, I've gotten the hang of it, and the new play style has me totally hooked. As per always, WoW's support for user created interface mods ads so much more to the game. I enjoyed Lord of the Rings Online, but honestly, I think WoW has the world licked when it comes to customization. With LOTRO, you could reskin your interface. With WoW, you can completely change it, adding features that are incredibly useful. I'm not much of an MMO person, the only announced one that I even care about is The Old Republic. But I hope Bioware takes a good look at WoW, and then steals as many features as possible. Blizzard really seems to keep nailing their updates out of the park, and for casual players like me, no matter how hard we try, it's hard to get Warcraft off the brain.
