So, last night we at the Ravens had a retro gaming night. Having
never really got our act together enough to conquer Zul’Aman prior to the
expansion we decided to go back there and give it a thorough shoeing.
Success took us just over two hours with three bosses on the
timer. Leafy has some nice pics and a more detailed story here
At that point we were at a loose end and decided that as most
of us had never seen molten core, we would take a little jaunt there just for
the scenery.
And what a let down it was. Obviously I am a bit spoiled now
with how pretty WotLK looks, but please, it looks no different from several of
the other old instances. Was this really the pinnacle of achievement back in
the good old days?
I am hugely grateful that I never got into the forty man
raiding scene. Not only does it look ugly and all too familiar, but the mobs seem
to be just plonked down randomly. I think I would have stabbed my eyes out in
frustration many times over if I had had to put up with this for as long as
people say it took, let alone having to repeat it over and over. Why would
anyone put themselves through that?
