10 reasons to hate World of Warcraft (Lich King Edition!)

Special Simon Fistrich Dominic Eskofier

Every gamer is in love with World of Warcraft. Every gamer? No! There are good reasons to detest the “World of Farmcraft”.

Looks awful, doesn't it? Looks awful, doesn't it? Wrath of the Lich King has an awesome story. But, my dear Wow droogies, does anyone of you even notice?

We know Blizzard can do stunning cinematics, and there is a legion of wow machinima maniacs out there. Why do we have to go old-school all the time and read through endless letters? Let’s be honest: How many WoW-veterans skip the quest descriptions and read them only while searching for the next quest item?
