World of Warcraft (day 2)

I finally get to play and spend an enjoyable few hours getting the hang of things and getting my character to level 7. Then the difficulty changes from "I can kill most things without too much of a problem" to "I can't kill anything without a problem and if I meet two or more monsters I'm fucked".

Then I find out that while it may be cool that the world is huge but when I die and become a ghost and have to spend five minutes running back to my body to respawn with 50% health, and then die, then spend five minutes running back, that this isn't fun. Pairing up with a wizard I found that I can die just as quickly but only get half the XP for killing anything.
