Where the campaign story went in WoL is basically why I am not motivated to purchase HoS. But some of the unit additions and shit looks exciting.

Still pretty meh about their decision to make it three separate games, but oh well. I guess it was this or expansions.

e: Also, the dongle authenticator is great and pretty painless. The only potential issue is if you think you'd lose it or if you travel and are using your battle.net account for whatever reason. I got one back whenever I decided to play WoW on official servers, but now it basically sits there on my desk doing nothing (since I stopped playing that a year ago).

Okay to their credit, the "sequel" is only MSRP $39.99, which has been a pretty valid "significant expansion pack" price since expansion packs existed.

Well as an example I got an email from Vudu today that they weren't even hacked, someone actually literally broke into their headquarters and stole a bunch of harddrives with user data on them, such as email addresses, real addresses, phone numbers, etc. Also passwords.

They assured me that the passwords were encrypted but encouraged me to change my password anyway, which I did.

I have some of the various other protections of course but I still can't stop people actually physically breaking into places. Doesn't happen that often, I suppose, but still.
