Gen Con Reveals New World Of Warcraft Details

Thanks to RPGDot for pointing to a Battle.net forum post revealing a wealth of new detail regarding Blizzard's upcoming PC MMO title World Of Warcraft. WoW Stratics also has screenshots and brief comments on Blizzard's showing at Gen Con in Los Angeles, including comments that "Blizzard has one thing completely, undeniably wrong: they simply don't know the definition of 'alpha'. Both Anarchy Online and WWII Online were less polished and complete three months after release than WoW is right now." WoW is due out later in 2004, with a closed Beta early next year, and PlanetWarcraft also has some hands-on impressions.

I really like the idea of doing the randomized loot like in Diablo. That should really help make everyone a little different and cut way down on the cookie cutter characters, like in other games. At level 10 camp this spot and get this sword, keep it until level 15 when you can get X. Sounds like it could be fun.
