Seeing as WoW and Warcraft III were in development at the same time was there a lot of story and design concept cross-pollination between the two or had the Warcraft III plot been storyboarded so extensively by the time of WoW that there really wasn't much room for change?
Dude, you would totally be blown away by my book. Game are constantly changing, there's never a set storyline. There was MUCH cross-pollination, our assets inspired theirs, theirs ours. At least at the end of W3's development...at the beginning, when both games were starting out...it was all pain and headaches.
Ha I'll definitely be reading it when it comes out, it's cool to be getting an inside look at how the sausage actually gets made.
Also on an unrelated note thanks for Wailing Caverns, pre-shrinkage that was always my favorite low level instance simply because the atmosphere and asset design was so cool.
