You have a good point stormlord.
40 man raids are no more. So, the game is more of a multiplayer MMO-lite now. You don't ever have to leave your city nearly now. You can just hit the queue button to enter a random dungeon or a specific one of your choice. You can level basically from 10-85 without leaving the capital cities.

I can' recall specifics so I hate to even point it out. I just recall it was someone in management.. or someone high up. They were trying to broaden WoW's appeal. Wish I could remember well enough to google it. I just tried and couldn't find anything. Maybe I can google my brain someday. I'm thinking 2007/2008 I read that.
Its' like how game makers are trying to make PC/Ps3/Xbox360 all-in-one games now. They tell us that it won't impact the effectiveness of hte game, but I really have to question that assertion. Company exists to save money. If they can make the 3 versions as similar as possible to shave away extra expenses and playres don't notice then they will. Inevitably it will lead to games that play similarly and look similarly across platforms.
Make things the same and you don't have to pay for separate development. Saves money.
If more console gamers bought keyboards/mouse and more developers for the consoles coded for these things it wouldn't be so bad. But we're a ways off from that happening commonly.
