GAMING NEWSWorld of Warcraft Patch 4.3 Raid and Dungeon Details ReleasedPosted on Monday, September 19 @ 18:42:50 Eastern by Josh_Laddin
Disclaimer: This is only relevant to current or past WoW players. If you've never cared about the game... well, you ain't gonna start now. We've never done a raid like this before. Our raids have almost always been a long hallway with trash, and then a boss room, and then another long hallway. This one is so different. It's very event driven. It's more scripted than location-based. A little bit like Hyjal, but even then you were kind of like, “Okay, we're in the Human area, and now we're going to the Orc area.” This one is a lot more like the bosses are coming AT you. If the epic storyline wrap-up isn't your thing, 4.3 is also bringing back the updated Darkmoon Faire with games, items, quests, and events that should be actually interesting instead of completely pointless. ![]() And lastly, the much-anticipated Transmogrification feature is also coming. Something that WoW players have wanted for years, this lets you change the art on your gear to that of any existing gear that you currently own, within a reasonable set of restrictions. You no longer have to be burdened by looking at ugly gear if it's the best thing you've got - just 'mog it to something classic like an old tier set! With all of this stuff in the works, as a perennial WoW player I'm more excited for this patch than I've been since Wrath of the Lich King came out. More from the Game Revolution Network Comments

Regardless of how it is done though, the whole process is a hamster wheel or a treadmill. You grind out the latest set of gear and then wait for them to release another. It's running without going anywhere. I used to do plenty of raiding and pvp in my days and it gets stale.
There just needs to be more stuff to do. I thought they had a good idea with the whole path of the titans thing, but what the whole relic thing they gave us instead was very weak.
Alternate progression is something I thought EQ did well and it looks like Rift will be doing something similar in their next content patch. WoW could look at that too.
