We have an incredibly long and informative interview with Jeff Kaplan for everyone tonight. For those not aware, he goes by Tigole on the forums, and is one of the Lead Designers of World of Warcraft.
Tigole was kind enough to spend 25 minutes with us, so as you can imagine we had a great opportunity to ask a ton of questions. He talks about a wide variety of things, including the expansion, and even some things coming before the expansion goes live. You can check it out below.
Credit to Faerlun for three questions which he submitted to us as part of our question-taking article last weekend. The questions asked about whether players will be able to unlock the Death Knight for all realms at once, or if it would be limited to the realm the player unlocked the class on, whether Hunters would be getting some attention for Arena viability, and how Blizzard is going to approach the gear gaps between veteran Arena teams and those who are just starting out.

Keep an eye out on our Leipzig Games Convention portal for more coverage of the event. We'll have a lot more video interviews like this one with Tigole coming in the days ahead, including a lot of the highly anticipated MMO's to be released in the near future.
