  "account": "I have been immersed in the World of Warcraft: Forever beta for over 50 hours and am eager to continue playing post-launch on November 4. Kris Zierhut, the principal game designer, has announced that Forever will adopt a slower update schedule, releasing major updates every four months instead of the rapid eight to ten week cycle of Season of Discovery. This slower pace appeals to me as I have been captivated by the frenetic pace of retail WoW, even acknowledging some of its buggy patches. While Blizzard's recent roadmap has revitalized the game, the constant influx of new content has made me feel overwhelmed at times. If Forever can offer a more leisurely update cadence, I am keen to embrace it.",
