GameRecoil -> -> Wrath of the Lich King to Have Achievement System
The new expansion for World of Warcraft, Wrath of the Lich King, is going to have an achievement system (similar to the one Xbox Live uses). The achievements can be earned in several different categories including: PvP (player versus player), PvE (player versus environment), world exploration, professions, and character development. Much like the Xbox system, once you earn the achievement a little screen should pop up awarding you with …something. It is unsure if the points will be worth anything or if it’s simply to stroke someone’s WoW ego.
The difficulty of the achievements will vary. One achievement may require your character to slay X amount of worgs while another will require the character to complete a high level raid. Additionally, there will be “Feats of Strength” that are extremely difficult or nearly impossible that will not show if unearned. If you do earn them, though, you can announce them at dinnertime on Festivus.
