Having a good time with World of Warcraft at the moment. Despite only just starting on the new content, I've already got to fight a bunch of dragons (and do some flying on them too), and complete the first two dungeons, Utgarde Keep and the Nexus. As expected, playing a priest seems to have made it much easier to find a group for the dungeons, healers being in limited supply.
That said, there are ten more dungeons to see (not counting the four raid dungeons, which realistically, I never expect to enter). And even though it's only two months since Wrath of the Lich King came out, the starter zones that I'm questing in right now (I've only just hit level 71) seem surprisingly devoid of other players. Understandable, perhaps, if I was on a low-population server but I'm not, I'm on a high-population one.
So like the Burning Crusade expansion, I doubt whether I'll see even half of those other dungeons before finding a group for them becomes impossible (everybody else being at the point where they're only running them in heroic mode, or raiding). It's a shame, as the dungeons are one of my favourite parts of WOW.
That said, when I hit 80 I'm planning to go back and solo as many of the original WOW dungeons as I can. Many of them I never saw, and it'll give me a chance to get some of my Achievements too (yes, I can see myself becoming a real Achievement whore). I'm particularly looking forward to trying to get into Ragefire Chasm - the easiest dungeon in the whole game, but which is located smack in the middle of one of the opposing faction's cities (meaning getting there is going to be extremely hard without getting killed by players of that faction, or the NPC guards).
The main downside of being back on World of Warcrack is that I don't have the time (or inclination) to play any other games - and there are several good ones out right now (many of which I already have, partly-completed). Hopefully 2009 will be a crap year for games so I have plenty of time to catch up later on!
