G4TV previews Wrath of the Lich King

Blizzplanet has a new Wrath of the Lich King related video from G4TV. It has interviews with Jeffrey "Tigole" Kaplan and J. Allen "No nickname I'm aware of" Brack and very short previews of the new zones, the Death Knight hero class, quests and raids. It also has a very annoying soundtrack underneath the interview snippets which made me want to rip the speakers off of my computer when I watched it the first time, so be warned. A few notes of interest during the interview:
- They definitely want to make sure that the Horde and Alliance experiences in WoTLK are different: "While some of the story threads will be the same, how you get there will vary for Horde and Alliance."
- We will apparently not just ally with, but also have to fight some of the Tuskarr. This makes me sad. I don't want to kill the Wilford Brimley's of Azeroth. I mean, I'll do it if there's a shiny copper piece involved, don't get me wrong, but it still will make me sad as I rip that purse off of their blubbery corpses. I just dread the "Gather x Tuskarr tusks" quests I fear are coming. I saw tusks right on him! What do you mean he doesn't have any?
- They're planning out all their patches in advance this time. I didn't actually know they didn't already do this, so it was news to me.

Morgan hates the horde. But then in a past bit said she played on the horde (I forget what. undead...warlock maybe?)
SO what is it, Morgan? Are you caught in your own web of lies or do you hate your own team?
Of course, drooling males everywhere don't care that she sucks so long as she bounces like a nightelf occasionally.

Crazy thought - maybe it was a joke? You know, "joke"? You've heard of them right?

Morgan is HOT

If by "hot" you mean mannish with a huge chin then yes, she's "hot".

God bless Morgan for hating the horde!
ILikePvPbuthatePvPers May 15th 2008 7:10PM
While you're at it. Tell God to bless her with a better looking face too. She's ugly as hell.

Did they say the lvl requirement to start the DK chain is 55?
Suzaku May 16th 2008 8:29PM
There's not a chain. There's not a quest. How can so many people be so misinformed?
All you need to create a Death Knight is at least one level 55+ character anywhere on your account. You can then create one level 55 Death Knight per realm.
The only quests are the ones you get when you create your Death Knight, which will explain their backstory, abilities, how they break free of the Lich King's thrall, etc. etc..

Wow. Kaplan sure sounds excited. (That was sarcasm.)
By the way: Yeah, Morgan is kinda cute, but she has a chin that could cut glass.

Got given this if you haven't seen it already, was a 10 minute vid of Lich King including footage of flying mount fighting :D Hope you enjoy (and haven't seen it b4) :)

I have no qualms about killing Tuskarr (or any other NPC) for a few gold.
And if they are skinnable, so much the better.
