Yes, I agree that you know where the game is heading, but you can't possibly know the feel of it. And as for releasing un-finished game, I believe that it partly our fault because we put pressure on devs/publisher to get it out ASAP. The only company I know that does not give in to that pressure (there might be others), is Blizzard. Any time people asks them when a game will get out... they always answer : When it's finished/ready... never before
I disagree. Lich King was not finished. Instead of delaying release they released WOTLK with only one proper raid dungeon (one that was rehashed on top of it all). Lich King was pushed out the door by Activision just to rake in X-Mas sales. It isnt the same Blizzard you used to love.

First thing... thanks for to you, I learned of the battle of Zorndorf. Had no idea what Zorndorf meant lol
Yeah I mut admit that for WOTLK, it might have been the case (I wasn't playing when it came out and didn't know anything about what was announced). Unfortunately it would make sense in a business point of view. Wasn't there also Warhammer than came out around the same time or Mines of Moria or maybe both... can't remember. Well it seems that the MMORPG industry is stressed to get things out unfinished because of all the new players (companies) in the market.
Well, I hope Blizzard will not have SC2 and Diablo3 out before they are ready
