So.. I wrote before that it’s been speculated that WoW would continue to add expansions till you get to level 110, and now with Wrath of the Lich King being a year old and the majority of players at 80, it’s about time for them to announce the next xpac.

if you know your history you will see:

Original Game released: November 23, 2004

Burning Crusade announced: October 28th, 2005

Burning Crusade released: January 16, 2007

Wrath of the Lich King announced: August 3, 2007

Wrath of the Lich King released: November 13, 2008

So.. the math sez we are due.  Recently Blizzard trademarked the name “Cataclysm” , which is also known in WoW lore as “The Great Sundering” ..

During that event (according to lore) the “Well of Eternity” along with 80% of the land mass in Azeroth was destroyed.  The Well was Turned into the Mealstrom, which is that swirly thing on the map of Azeroth..

So.. What does Todd think?

I dunno..  but the trend shows “it’s about time” and I think it would be nice to break away from this continuation of Warcraft III content and finally onto some actually new gameplay.
