Update

I'm still disgruntled at the difficulty level in Cata.

* Do ten quests for a fraction of a bar
* Rewards difficult to obtain
* End game difficult to obtain
* Enchants difficult to obtain
* Gems difficult to obtain
* Materials for professions difficult to obtain
* Class mechanics changed

Is anything easy to get?  No.

What have been the results?

* Raider burnout
* PVE burnout
* PVP burnout

What would have been better:

* Refactor some old areas (Desolace, Silithus, Dark Portal) into 85-95 areas.
* Keep old class mechanics.
* Materials easier to level (keep epic patterns/materials difficult to obtain).
* Keep old gear appearance (ie Lithe Boots) in game, by
* Allow people to change gear to look like anything you have in bank
* Free drake mount for buying Cata

I do think I am burned out. I will probably take a vacation in Aug (end of sub) for a bit.
