-Since this thread was created I leveled 2 alts to 2.55 content. Nobody knows who they are because I made sure to do it on my own, without riding reputation or friends for help.
-I'm pretty sure every expansion in WoW made me replay the entire series of expansions if I started a new character. I made a monk? I have to replay Cata/BC/Wrath/Panda/Warlords to get current. Unless I shell out real cash, by the by.
-Until recently, if someone wanted to play DK and was new to the game, they had to start at 1, hit 55, then redo everything.
-People here seem to be intentionally ignoring the newspost where Yoshi said exp and gear rewards were being streamlined to alleviate the 2.1-2.55 bore. New players will likely be level 51 or 52 upon hitting 3.0's content.
-New players won't be bothered by having to redo content because they'll be doing it for the first time
-New players who want to play new classes should be used to the MMO design of "Nope, do the boring grind first."
-If they're not, they won't buy the expansion.
-Seriously, you could have had multiple brand new classes to 50 and waiting for fantasia (included with the expansion!) by now
B-but warren.... other mmos let me play the stuff right away...
And its so much work...
And *farts*
