Why I Am Buying Cataclysm On December 7th

It seems really strange that I am talking about buying Cataclysm.  The last time I ragequit World of Warcraft I told myself I would never go back.  I purposely tried to avoid any of the hype for Cataclysm.  I haven't read any updates on anything about the game.  I just know basically everything is changing, and it will be like a whole new game.

So why is it that they officially announce the release of Cataclysm today, and I can't stop drooling all over myself?  It is just crazy.  I just requested a weeks vacation starting December 7th.  How can just an announcement have me that excited about playing it again?  Am I still addicted to World of Warcraft, and the Cataclysm announcement just made me relapse?

Will it live up to my expectations?  My expectations are not really much.  I want to experience the game like old times in beta, and the first year or so after launch.  Those are the times I liked the most.  I enjoyed the world pvp, and it was always what made the game fun for me.

I just think Cataclysm is what is going to make world pvp fun again.  I remember the raids on the Barrens, the fights in STV, and Hillsbrad.  It is what I want back, and I think Cataclysm will breathe life back into the lower levels.  It will be like playing the game again for the first time.

I enjoyed having to watch my back every mob I attacked from opposing players wanting to gank me.  It is what pvp is all about.  The whole surprise factor of pvp is gone these days from most mmorpg's. 

I look forward to playing Cataclysm non stop for a week.  Let's just hope my boss actually approves my vacation that week, or I might be in jail from doing some real pvp on him.
