People are aware they actually took a bunch of jokes out of the final cut, right? https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-features/resident-evil-filmmaker-zach-cregger-test-screenings-1236697134/ It seems clear that a major inspiration for Cregger was trying to recreate the _feeling_ of...

Eh, there was a lot of speculation that the Lions window has closed until they can clear out their contract situation. Would be quite a downfall if the NFC North went from having all four teams with winning seasons last year to at least two questionables (Lions and Packers).

Eh, the Bears, Jaguars, Bills, and Ravens all seemed fine, the Seahawks rallied with a backup QB, and the Texans didn't look terrible despite the loss.

As another then and still Pally main (which of course also makes me Alliance scum), virtually anything will be less painful than the launch ret (and in bands Prot) levelling experience. (Hell, my pally isn't vanilla, he's launch day - I even (only) played Pally in beta.)

Woof, I wasn't big on the Packers this year - people forget the whole reason Malik Willis got the job in Miami was he kept 'getting' opportunities to play, and the Packers O-line wasn't really improved this off-season to keep Love upright - but this is getting ugly. Edit: Yes, the Packers got...

There's the Packers defense / 'Special' teams to give the Vikings hope.

As a neutral observer its entirely likely the Saints and Panthers will be fighting for #1 in the division. I don't like your chances of winning a playoff game, but somebody's gotta win the division.

So much for defense winning early.

I thought Last Titan was set in Northrend. So immediately after we play through Northrend (again), we go back there? Let's hope the continent is seriously altered in the expansion.

I just can't get over MTX + Subscription for Forever. Yeah, the Forever dev effort is separate from Live and needs to be recouped somehow, but MTX on a Sub is the worst way to do it. Especially when there's no visibility on what / when the next MTX will be. Especially since there were no SoD...

Having Forever be part of the base sub means that Skyborne is a microtransaction race. I hate it - especially since it effectively establishes (since presumably they won't have boxed expansions) that new material is heavily MTX on top of the sub. Again, I hate it.

I still say personal housing is silly / divides the playerbase, even with guild neighborhoods, but a Guild House keeps everyone together - I would hope that's what they're going with (eventually).

I hate the name but otherwise what was expected (on average). Frankly I am fine with the forever 60 level cap - if the game doesn't start until level cap, then you can make the argument they shouldn't bother having a level at all (and just go ilevel).

They know everyone already knows Classic+ is _something_ and will end with that. They're hardly going to leave WoW Patch 12.2 coverage as the big closer.

They said open world for Starcraft, yes? Would be wild if we're getting our Destiny 3 from Blizzard.
