1. DKs are all humans because for some inexplicable reason blizz gave humans a second pvp trinket in a racial called Every Man for Himself
2. My Gnoam DK was called Sardini and he was ossum
3. I don't think the quests are a total rehash, I mean obviously the back bone of the questing system is that basically you have to kill things or collect things in order to progress and level up but they have included some new things. In the first area you get to you have to free some guys from web prisons (remember that area in Terokkar forest?) the chance of getting the guys you want is actually quite low BUT, you can also free a shaman, a warrior or a mage type who will follow you around and help you kill mobs/heal you for about 3 minutes.
There's also a bunch of new things to try out, ride+deliver quests where you get to cure some Kodo and ride them back to safety, and another area where everything is enclosed in this weird mist (I almost shat myself when I walked in, the screen closed down with white fog and this giant thingy loomed out of the fog) so that the beach looks empty until you take two steps forwards. Oh, and you get to help repair some tanks and then drive them around and stomp the shit out of some zombies. And at one point you get to go on a magic carpet ride (and there are draginz, lots and lots of draginz!!!!!one1111).
So yes. Obviously there will be repetitions. Obviously at various points you're going to be looking at the screen and thinking "HOW much xp til the next level?" but didn't you do that while leveling from 1-60? or 60-70?
I admit I have been having a lot of fun with the new areas, the new spells and abilities but maybe I am old fashioned that way. Oh, and everything is fucking beautiful there. Gorgeous scenery that makes you realise what a crock of shit Hellfire Penisula really was.
