For those of you who are wondering about power gaming vs. casual player wants, have no fear. Both are in heavy consideration as are special things for Guilds. Again, we're talking about Microsoft and doing things in a big way with the technology and talent to back it up. Casual gamers will be able to choose to enter smaller Private Realms that take less time to complete. Power Gamers will be able to choose to enter into larger more difficult and cooperative Private Realms that take more time and resources to complete.
Here a few hang-ups and benefits to the idea of Private Realms and Public Realms. Private Realms are just that, private. No one will have gone through and destroyed everything and gotten all the loot before you. You and your group are all alone and the sole persons responsible for completing it. If for some reason you go link dead or drop suddenly from the game, you may have to restart the realm but ONLY if you had no one else in your group or no one in your group was left alive within the realm. As long as party members are still active within the PR, you will be able to enter back in where you left off. Unlike Blizzard's model, you will not be able to just stop in the middle of a Private Realm and come back to it. Like Blizzard's model, you will still have control over your time investment to a certain extent.
