Doctors of philsophy, two doctors' musing on playing world of warcraft

So you have it; wow.com has reported that next World of warcraft expansion will be called “World of Warcraft: Cataclysm”.  The new expansion will contain two new playable races: Worgen (alliance) and Goblin (horde). 

I don’t hold any loves for most of the alliance races; with that said the gnome is a lot of fun to run around in because of the small size.  I think it will be exciting to duplicate that vantage with a little cute goblin!  Although I am drade have to level up another toon.

The name Cataclysm is also an interesting choice.  Typically cataclysm doesn’t occur until half the world gets destroyed by gods.  I wonder if Blizzard will toss us some world event that will have some part of our existing world destoryed.  I would think that is an excellent idea; most of the leveling zones are deserted as it is. If you remove half of them (such as sillithus), a few players may not even notice.
