Oh I agree but quests seemed an odd way to me to do it. If you look at how CoH just did their free to play stuff, it seems much more player friendly.
Your missing stuff, but the core of the game is there. The idea of going to a new zone and seeing no quests (if I am understanding it right) unless you buy them for the zone, seemed a little harsh.
I'd rather it was extra classes, cosmetic stuff, an services like race, name, extra slots or gender change.

All points from any character are shared in one pool so with a little patience you can amass points by making characters on multiple servers over and over. I already had 5 characters slots from having been a subsriber back in the day before F2P and was able to make enough points to buy to or three zones easily. The trick is to wait for them to put the zone you want on sale.

If WoDO wasn't OWoD, I would be chomping at the bit for a Promethean: The Created expansion. I wonder if they'll do anything outside the core games at all (Mortals, Vampires, Werewolves, Mages).
I suppose it'll depend how it goes, the cutting staff is worrying though. I know play for items will be the way of things mind, expect to see loads of special clothing to buy from day one when the game launches.
They know for a Vampire game, where style has always played a factor, clothing items are going to be gravy for their profit margins.
Sadly for us.

It's actually a legitimate post, I checked it out. It's a preview of Mists of Pandaria from Blizzcon 2011. Although, I have to admit, the article kinda lost me when it was talking about how the monk class plays and this phrase came up: "You can also choose to spend two kick balls to cast a football against your foes forcibly."
I...what?

^^ in DDO you earn enough points to make it worth it but honestly anyone with any kind of job should just go ahead and put down some of the monies eh. Or play a better game.
I didn't know we were talking about WoW. Well, WoW is cool and everyone should play it. The end.
I doubt I would personally play a panda but Monk class looks cool.
Taco! I know you play this! Tell me how to make most awesome panda!

You realize that WoW took the cooking thing from older MMORPGs, right?
It's taken quite a lot from other rpgs, both older and newer.

Taco isn't being combative at all. I just know that he loves him
some WoW.

No, he's acting as if this is somehow something unique to WoW instead of something that WoW took from other MMOs.

I know taco. He's just being excited about his game.
I'm sure he's well aware that other games have cooking.

I mean sure other games are like, you know you kill the wolf and you get a piece of meat and you cook it and you get a buff or something. But I mean this is WoW we are talking about. We even have cooking hats. Heck, I even have the Cooking Hat!
(Makes you cook faster.)
I mean don't get me wrong I know those other games are OK and everything.
But yeah we take cooking pretty seriously in our old WoW. And I mean you even see it now it is a signature ability of the new race and will likely figure prominently in the new expansion, which of course everyone is excited about as the Horde and the allaince explore more of the world they call their home.

Well if nothing else WoW sure fractures opinion.. and yes, lots of hats.
I have a chef hat, various Jungle hats, my old Salty fishing cap, worgen victorian hat, and numerous others. Plus various dresses and the like that have no stats other than looking nice while standing at the AH.
In fact Blizz really needs to add some kind of wardrobe for all my stuff. Maybe I could find Narnia in the back.
