An Epic Crusade 2 of 2 Ciao Users found the following review helpful
Rating from Lehen 5 Stars ()

Advantages level cap increase, new races, items, areas, pvp maps, flying mounts

Disadvantages losing more of your life in order to play

Following on from my World of Warcraft review comes forth the first major expansion - World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade! An epic adventure awaits bundled with lots of new content.


Within the Burning Crusade add-on you are able to unlock a number of additional extras in order to progress within the Warcraft world. Being able to play as two new races, the Blood Elves and the Draenei, which included various racial, class additions, most notably the Blood Elf Paladin and the Draenei Shaman. Both of which helped balance out the Horde and Alliance factions when compared to the original version of the game.


Jewelcrafting was also added to the list of jobs a character could learn. But the biggest of all added extras came in the form of the Outland areas, which contained multiple new maps, dungeons, quests, pvp instances, monsters, items and flying mounts!


Once installed, a character is allowed to continue to level up from 60 to 70 in the Outland zones. The Outland consisted of a lot of major changes which left some players angry about, due to their older items and equipment that they spent months collecting instantly obsolete upon the release of The Burning Crusade. After a short time the players grew to accept the advancements, yet some players have still chosen to boycott the game because of such. This factor should be taken into consideration when playing World of Warcraft, as the hours you invest into the game to achieve the current item rewards can be instantly become irrelevant upon a forthcoming expansion.


If you do not own the original version of the game, you will need to in order to run this add-on, but you do not need this add-on in order to play the original game, yet you lose the features listed above if this expansion is not purchased - feel free to check out my review of the original World of Warcraft if you are considering playing the game for the very first time.


Summary: A world class expansion for a world in warcraft.

The additional Strategy Guide and Time Card provide you an extra 30 days of game time and a guide that is packed full of everything you need to know to get stuck into The Burning Crusade. The guide features various in-game information for the new races, jobs, items, dungeons and everything that's been new and improved with the expansion.
