They should be embarrassed!? Sorry, I can't say I share your sentiment in the slightest.I fully support easter eggs.
What I'm talking about is basing huge chunks of content on it, like those things you mentioned. I mean seriously, an entire expansion based on a previous game and not just any expansion, the end of your 10 year story?? And not original content? They should be embarrassed to do that. So many raids being based on previous games that they actually made a big deal about the 6.0 raids being actually original. Really think about that for a second...they had to brag that their new end of story content is original. Again, they should be embarrassed. Also, playing to nostalgia is a cheap gimmick when you're afraid your original content can't stand on it's own.
Like I said, easter eggs and the occasional wink or nudge is one thing, but they make entire huge chunks of content based on the old games. I honestly don't know of any unrelated games that do it that shamelessly.
