    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The amount of preparation undertaken by the competitive guilds in conjunction with the number of pulls required to complete a content cycle put the whole thing so far out of reach I find it easier to dream about going in to professional wrestling at 40 than be in a top 100 WoW guild.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Jokes aside I find it so strange to see that raiding in a MMO as mainstream as World of Warcraft has developed in to a thing that is just not for me at all. So are the first few weeks of Mythic just the e-sports tier now?

    I haven't seen it but I have seen two of the director's prior films Blue Ruin and Green Room and they were both a trip. I'd recommend them both.

    It took 19 years but I've finally stumbled in to a conversation about how ridiculous level one wands are.

    Dresden Files

    The first one is definitely generic and the second one looks to continue and solidify a very lame formula of "let me just brew up a couple potions that all happen to be useful as fuck later on" but with book three forward they're gold. The only one I didn't really like was Ghost Story but even...

    What did you just read?

    Finished "Summer of Night" by Dan Simmons. He's the author of The Terror, the book about a failed expedition in to the arctic that became the AMC show. Summer of Night is about a group of kids dealing with a supernatural entity in a small town in Illinois in 1960. There's some very superficial...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    It's one of Mother Nature's quintessential symbiotic relationships - The Troll and The Streamer. Streamers expend a great deal of energy in their daily hunt through the Great Twitch Plains in search of content. Trolls, in their proper proportion, can be an additional source but demand attention...

    The Walking Dead

    Didn't try to milk it to 200 or anything, only went a couple issues after and the final comic was alright so thumbs up for all that. I thought it was going to 300 and was dreading that. As it is the series had been sorta slow ramblely for a while and ending it was a good call.

    Everquest Mangler Server - DOING IT ALL AGAIN, AGAIN!

    The first few levels of the game are awful. Mangler at least has an exp rate that isn't hideous. I don't know how people were able to plow forward on Phinny and later Coirnav when you need to stab so many fucking snakes.

    A while ago the folks at OSW Review covered the old 1995 King of the Deathmatch tournament that Mick Foley won beating Terry Funk in the finals. It's three Irishmen just watching the whole thing and commenting on it so that may already not be your bag but I don't think of of the matches are...

    What did you just read?

    I started the book, got halfway, watched the show, and finished the book and I would agree. The mystical stuff is a substantial portion of the book and stripping it out doesn't do the story any favors. Lady Silence is way fucking cooler in the book. They botched her super hard.

    What did you just read?

    I just finished The Terror by Dan Simmons. It was adapted in to a show on AMC. It's about a failed expedition by the British Navy to find the Northwest Passage during the mid 1800s. The book mixes in a bit of the supernatural and while I'd say it's on the long side of things I found it to be...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I don't hate the gap between the launch of an expansion and the introduction of raid content. That serves at least some purpose. Telling me that I need to do a couple chores each day for twenty days for a thing but that I am not allowed to do extra chores to get there sooner will always rub me...

    Ghostbusters : Afterlife

    What, you've never heard of Ghostbusters: Answer the Call? I'm pretty sure it was a straight to DVD parody put out by the Sharknado guys. Adding a shitty tagline to your film because you're seeing a big uptick in DVD sales of the originals and are afraid people will buy the wrong one and...

    Between sorta wanting to mess around in the new content and WoW Classic on the way in August this is probably the moment I could most justify a six month subscription but that mount just isn't very interesting.

    Final boss of the expansion 100% Raid encounter at ground level, raid encounter on airships and shit flying around and another raid encounter when you get sucked in to the thing and fight what is inside.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    It was a substantial detriment to player choice and the system as a whole. Being able to dork around and explore a system is a big part of what I like about games and BfA routinely shut the door on my attempts to do so. Between not being able to build the meme sets I wanted and other traits not...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I know everyone's said everything there is to say about the things but I really wish they weren't all inherently a speed run. It just lead to me feeling stressed out instead of challenged as I'm fucking racing everywhere trying to keep everyone healed while not really being given the amount of...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    So it's an alternate Picard but we're starting off in the future shown to us in the finale of the series? So they want Patrick Stewart as Jean Luc Picard but not necessary THAT Jean Luc? Your explanation makes it even more retarded. This should have been a basic nostalgia project throwback not...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    They did that already. It was called Star Trek Nemesis and it was so fucking bad it killed the TNG film franchise. CBS should have done something really basic like eight or ten episodes of geezer Picard doing the kind of stuff television show Picard did while the audience gets a view in to...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I expect layering to have ramifications larger than what is being implied by Blizzard but not large enough to wreck anything.
