![]() I know it changes the game, but I also won’t eschew it and walk when I can fly. Flying straight to your destination, bypassing anything in your way, that is a very different scenario after 67 levels of being stuck to the ground for all travels outside of what a flight path or a portal can offer. I will stipulate that flying changes the game… changes it dramatically. ![]() I mean, sure, there were a few plagued cockroaches wandering around, but they were getting zapped by passers by about as fast as they popped up. So I logged in and went to Stormwind and stood around in the town square between the bank and the auction house, a locus of activity for any such event… and there was nothing. ![]() Some part of me wanted to see how it was playing out. I was just going to stay away.īut then curiosity began to pick at my will. My memories are more easily stimulated by visuals.Īnyway, with this bit of color in the back of my head, I suspected this week might be chaos and griefing once more and accepted that I likely wouldn’t be able to get anything done in town. These days I have a dozen screen shots in a post about a minor UI change in a game. But no screen shots and not much in the way of detail was included. My writing style was a bit more crude and terse back then, but I did post about the whole thing. Players trying to go about their business were angry about how things were going and Blizzard was telling people to maybe, you know, just not log in during the run of the event if they were not having fun. It has been almost fourteen years, so my recollections are a misty water colored memory of people being angry, a chaos of zombies throwing themselves at players in town, and new players being griefed relentlessly, causing me to pack up and stay out in the field for the duration of the event. My memories of the zombie plague event before the original Wrath of the Lich King launch back in 2008 are, admittedly, a bit foggy.
