New races
|
Blood elves and Draenei are the first two new playable races introduced since the original World of Warcraft release. Along with more lore adjustments than some lore hawks would like, in World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, the blood elves arise from the high elves and the draenei from the previously thought to be evil, eredar. The blood elves decided to join the Horde to fight common enemies (demons) and for their help getting to Outland. The draenei were befriended by the nearby night elves and joined the Alliance. | |

The idea isn't necessarily new, but a recent article on O'Reilly Radar by Marie Bjerede is one of the better ones that seeks to first understand how games like Warcraft and Minecraft are engaging and attractive, and second how to bring those elements into the classroom.
As it pertains to Warcraft, Ms. Bjerede leaves almost no area uncovered. Goals = grades, the game = school, and leveling up is the vehicle to success. Early on in her critique she mentions using a type of "unlocking" of new conte…

If this wasn't enough swag to get you Wow-boys and Wow-girls excited, Blizzard has also announced more things that they are includin…

The Howling Fjord is a zone located in southeastern Northrend. Ripped into the southern coastline lies Daggercap Bay, where the forces of Arthas originally landed on the continent. Stranded by the young prince, the 5,000-strong expedition set up the outpost of Valgarde. The small settlement has since become the center of Alliance activity on Northrend.
