I've often criticized Blizzard for not creates more starting classes for WoW. To me, the classes create gameplay bariety and they are what keep me playing. Needless to say, I've stopped playing. But recently I took a look at their latest patch notes:

Its dawned on me. Blizzard isn't creating new classes because they are constantly reinventing their existing classes. Being a Hunter devotee, I look at the changes that are taking place with my mouth agape. The Hunter class is nothing like what I played. The idea of pet talent trees makes me emotionally "erect".
I may have to look into this game again...
