  Lich King Beta Thoughts

  Cool things about the Wrath of the Lich King beta.
  
  1) Death Knights feel epic. I'm tearing through the Death Knight starting zone. The real test will come when I reach Hellfire Peninsula, however.
  
  2) Mayor Quimby.
  
  3) The starting zone changes. I haven't really heard anyone else remark on this yet but the Death Knight starting zone is very story driven and thus very linear. You usually only have one or two quests at any one time. As you progress though the story of the quest line the makeup of the zone changes to reflect the current state of the story. Really cool. I wonder what would happen if my wife starts a Death Knight when I'm near the end of my quest line. Can we see each other? Do we see the same things around us if we're in the same area?
  
  4) Lots of statistics. The second tab on your achievements window is a list of statistics involving money, kills, quests, etc. Very interesting information to have.

  Do Stormtroopers Sometimes Throw Up When They Get Sick?

  Umm... yes. Yes they do my son.

  Does Darth Vader Sleep?

  Yesterday my five-year-old son asked me if Darth Vader sleeps. I said, yes, I do think he sleeps because even though he is more machine than man he is still man and must sleep like the rest of us. However, after further discussion with my son we decided that Darth Vader probably does not use a pillow when he sleeps.
