The Instance 670: Dino-Sour?

The tier twos are considered some of the best the game ever saw. And these are all redone versions of those. We talked about those a bit last time we were on. All right. One other part we didn't mention is there's this area by Caverns of Time that you go to. And when you portal there, it's just there.

So if you go to the portal near the major city, you'll pop right there and you'll see the celebration. It basically looks like a little fair is set up. There's some booths and there's stuff going on. There's some repeatable quests in there, dailies, and there are some events in there that you have to do. And at first, I was like, dude, this feels like the Northrend stuff.

Was it called the jousting tournament stuff? Oh, yeah. I can't think of it all of a sudden. The Argent tournament. Argent tournament. And I love the Argent tournament. There was something about the vibe and the atmosphere and the music and everything was just like... wow, this is like I'm really at a big fair.

I'm at a big event and I'm hanging here and I got to do stuff here every day and everything. I thought that's what I was getting into here. It has no music. It has these events that at first seemed neat, like, ooh, Laura Walker Cho is going to come out and talk on stage and tell me an old tale of Arthas or some kind of weird druid dream or whatever. He's going to retell these stories.

That seems neat. And then there's the pull out your mounts and let's see how many you have. And if one of you wins, good job. And And these various things, right? The transmog thing. They all sound amazing on paper. And also first time through, it's fine. Yeah, fun even. Fun even, you might even say. It's a slog now. I don't even want to go there. I don't want to do anything there.

The only thing I would recommend is make sure you hop on one of the balloons, which just slowly floats you around the grounds and then lands you and gives you an achievement. So if you're an achievement head, you get an achievement for that. The rest of that place can F out of here. I don't like it. I think it's boring. I think it's grindy.

I mean, I'm not saying... It's just, it's a 30-year anniversary of... I don't know what I expected. I know there's a lot going on, and the team is spread everywhere, and they're all doing different things. But if they were trying to impress me with this fair part of it, it's not working, Bobby. I really don't like it there.

win and that's it was kind of neat um again caveat i only did that one time so that kind of does go into your uh like uh the first time it was fun well i would do it more often if it wasn't 400 million years between each one like honestly that's the other thing there's no timer anywhere so you don't get to see you you know what's up next but you don't really know when and a lot of times i come out and go that's one way they could fix it
