WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT?!! (SERIOUSLY)

Lok'tar friends...

First off, I'm not even going to apologize for my absence becase 1) I don't have enough followers to upset and 2) Nothing's been going on in Warcraft to warrent my attention...


..until now..

(rant warning!)


Recent patch "6.0.2" brought with it the classic 'pre-expansion' quest line that is "supposed" to lead into the main content....And it is the absolutely WORST pre-x experience I have EVER had.

("""""Spoiler alert"""""" if you REALLY want to call it that.)

Logging on to a main character at max level gets an automatic invite to the pre-e quests. I was eager to jump in at this oppertunity wondering if was going to be another fun/interesting situation like pre-cata or something painfully grinding heavy like pre-Mists...came to find out it was neither. In fact, it was lame. Lame, lame, lame.  You go to this place, talk to a few people, kill things and report to warcheif. That it! That's all that you do! It took me a whole whopping 30 minutes...30 FUCKING MINUTES on my shaman.. MY RECENTLY REVAMPED RESTO SHAMAN to clear all of the quests! Yes, granted he's in LFR gear, but that was WAAAAYYY TOO EASY!

Anyone remember pre-cata? Where you had to go into your home city, disable time bombs and dress up in that awful, hideous purple hooded outfit to infiltrate the cultists?  That was not something you did on an every day basis in Warcraft and it was fun/amusing (though not very challenging still memorable.) Or how about Pre-Mists? When you had to gather all that Kor'kron shit. Man you grind at that fucker for a month and play your points right, got gear, a pet AND a title. Was it needlessly monotonous? Hell yes, but FUCK at least you felt like you EARNED it!

This time? Do this, kill that, oh and here, have a title and a pet. THAT'S IT.

oh well, then it was for story telling purposes....

You wanna know what these quests told about the story? NOTHING. Absoufuckenlouetly NOTHING.   It doesn't say what happened to Garrosh, or even how he was able to be smart enough to GET to the past, or WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO THRALL?! And what's his deal anyway?! Is he Horde? Is he Earthing Ring? Did he get stoned off his ass and someone attacked his head with a razor? (That's all im getting from the information at hand!)I'm very confused...

((And sidenote: keeping open-ended questions like this around will have throngs of fanfic writers tearing this apart!))

I almost hit the roof the first time I saw 'warchief Vol'jin' until I realized, wait, that was part of the game, in the raids. (Yes, that's how long it's been.)

And you wanna know where all this information is located?

IN A GODDAMN FUCKING (but well written so I understand) BOOK!

I am paying 15.00 a month for an MMORPG! R.P.G. ROLE PLAYING GAME. Which means I should have all access to whatever I need to play/understand what is going on in the MAIN PLOTLINE. I'm not asking for the entire book, but at least GIVE me an OPTION when I talk to Thrall to have a brief recount, from his point of view, to WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!!
I have a hard enough time supporting the $15 sub, and now they want me to spend another10-15 on a BOOK?! FUCK THAT. No where in my Terms of Agreement does it say 'main storyline heavily based on external material that may require additional reading'. If Blizzard is going to rely so heavily on these 'books' then they damn well better make it part of my subscription! They sit there and praise themselves as awesome storytellers, then pull this kind of shit, FUCK THAT.

I can only hope I'm wrong. I hope that this is just a painful, unfinished, rushed, and stupidly put together mistake of a pre-x, and that whatever comes next will be so epically mind blowing I will forget this disaster even happened...

....sadly unlikely though, but hope springs eternal.
