Today, I decided to take a break from writing and indulge in a little World of Warcraft. I've been playing for several years now, but it's been a bit since I last played - October, I think. In any case, I remembered that they should be having their Valentine-esque holiday, so I decided to hop on.
And for the first time in years, the quests are different.
Last year (and the year before, and the year before that...), you bought perfume or cologne, distributed valentines, collected goodies, and spent oodles of time traipsing around Orgrimmar, Thunder Bluff, and Undercity for the quests.
This year? You get to collect charms, make a "lovely charm bracelet," and hand it off to, say, Thrall, who literally says, "Oh, what a lovely charm bracelet." Then you get to turn in your quest while squealing in fangirl/fanboy-ish glee because the great and mighty Thrall loved your charm bracelet.
The great and mighty Thrall probably has a pile of charm bracelets behind his chair and is debating whether or not he can arrange the death of whoever came up with the bright idea of the lovely charm bracelets.
Of course, now I'm wondering what other changes Blizzard's going to make this year. I also need to find out where people are getting the pet pugs, because those are adorable.
