Alphabets

We all knew that World of Warcraft was going to do SOMETHING to counter the launch of WildStar. When they started setting folks up with access to the alpha client yesterday it was hardly a surprise. Anyone who was honestly shocked hasn't been paying attention. It sounds like things are still quite rough, and it seems a bit late in development to only have one zone open, if that's true. To be honest though there were a lot of issues with the beta of WildStar only a couple months before launch, so I don't worry that WoD is going to be a mess at launch. It will be fine*.

I do not have access to the alpha, so I won't be talking about it here. If I got access tomorrow I still wouldn't be logging in though. There was a time when I would have hopped in to check out garrisons, but now I just don't have the time. Between playing WildStar and continuing to play Mists my gaming time is pretty much spoken for. If you are in the alpha playing around I hope that you have a great time, and that you help get all those bugs fixed so I can jump in and have a great experience this fall when it goes live. If you aren't in the alpha and want to be, then I'll cross my fingers for you.

Good luck, have fun, and all that jazz.

Just Outlands don't get all excited

*Fine as a relative term, it won't be perfect, because it never is. It will be fine though.
