Vashj'ir to Uldum


Finally, the new stuff!

Vashj'ir is completely under water, and so we ride seahorses around. This is a giant eyeball that belongs to an even bigger creature.

Here is the inside of that creature.


Snakes on a cyclone.

You don't see underwater ruins like this everyday.

From deep underwater to high in the air, very quickly. That is a fleet of ships below me.

Inside a submarine.

More gorgeous imagery.

Blizzard must have a thing for pop culture chefs.

U jelly fish?

I hear wearing an octopus on your face makes your brain function faster.

From an ingame cinematic. A submarine and a battle on the ocean floor.

You heard her, you'd better do it.

The maelstrom. It's a hole in the ocean that leads to the elemental plane of earth.

And I have to head down there!

Flush!

The other side of the maelstrom. Another stunning environment.


It's just a box.

Isn't this fine stone queen lovely?

She even has feet.

Cat riding a dragon, participating in an aerial chase through the earth plane.

Manataur, like minotaur or centaur. I guess I should have a picture of the cat-taur people that we're trying to blend in with, for comparison. But I don't. :(

A very large hammer, for knocking little pygmy dudes away from tree tops.

There's a huge quest line in this zone where you follow Harrison Jones through his very Indian Jones-like adventures. There are even Nazis!

This quest was actually an RTS. I had to command my cat-people troops around the battlefield. It was a pretty simple game, but awesome to see an MMO implement it.

Best comment ever. I guess robot chickens are good distractions for gnomes.

Another mini-game implemented in an MMO. This one is based on Katamari, where I drive this fiery orange globe around and pick up crazy gnomes.
