Part of what made it so compelling is that no one knew how the Death Knight class would work, or what requirements would be needed, everyone thought it would be a quest to convert an existing character, which had the intrigue of sacrifice for power, it was the first hero class after all. And then we found out it was a fucking joke, the class sucked and the only sacrifice was having to sit through a 2 hour quest line that wasn't particularly interesting and even less fun. Then there was the lack of content updates, it's easy to see how one could be so hyped and become so disillusioned over the course of 2 years.
