It's the little things!!!

For me some of the most important changes are the little things, the subtle changes that won't appear in any patch notes.

Like.
The new fighting stance for Tyrants rocks! Keep those fists up boys.

So what kinds of things floated your boat so far?
I saw a storage dwarf with glasses, was a nice detail.
The gatekeepers in newbie villages look so much cooler now, and the orc trainers now stand in camps!

Other than that, I'm all about the fishing :D
New animations for alot of the monsters when they are just stood idle.

did you know you can blink?

look at yourself close up for a few seconds, watch the blinking.
I dunno, as evidenced by my "Orcs stand funny" thread, a lot of people don't like the way orcs, and other races stand now. Its looks pretty ridiculous.
Remember: Praise always comes in smaller quantities than criticism.

I love the ability to highlight and delete text with shift+home>delete. Blinking is nice, so is human mystic's new 'barehanded' stance (at least the girls look very **** now, much much better than before).

I adore the new loading screen.

No more painful looking Anakim ftw!
Getting a mesage on what my pet picked up and having pet interface in a same place after restarting and relogining is nicce.
I don't think that's always the case, but most of the time yes. I agree a lot of the stuff is cool, the new login and loading screens, blinking, the new HDR rendering makes the colours in game look sooo rich.

However if the price I have to pay for such good things is a modification to the way my character looks such that I don't enjoy playing him much anymore, then yea there will be more criticism from me than praise.
I actually only have positive things to say about C4 -but i haven't seen the orcs yet! So that may change :p
I've very satisfied over all, and excited about various things ^_^

The 2-headed guys in Dragon Valley slap their own heads (right hand slaps left head and visa versa). It's quite funny.
Skeletons have gotten...flexible.

as have the goblins o.0
I really like how an orc female crosses her hands when a weapon is unequipped. Human mages during a fighting stance has changed a little as well. Much improved.
i was nuking some maille lizards and i luved the hopping lizardmen scouts clapping their hands. and the shamans do it too.
One of the little things I like is being told I can buy 4 CDs and install C4 rather than download it, pay for overnight delivery, and then still having to download C4. Wait...
