    As long as you and PvP stay on your leper island segregated away from the civilized folk there won't ever be a problem.

    You ever watch Searching for Bobby Fisher? It's worth a watch for any gamer I'd say. I'd also recommend the old Twilight Zone episode "A Game of Pool."

    The system could try to avoid giving you duplicate cards with that chance increasing by rarity. As it stands right now if you are looking to complete a set it gets harder to finish the closer you get. You don't want to shit on people that are throwing money at you.

    Mandatory reading for all you lottery players out there - If I could have one million dollars deposited into my checking account anonymously or win this jackpot I'd rather have the single million. I'm going to buy a ticket but I fear that it is too much money. I fear that it will destroy me...

    If the class I was playing got nerfed due to something involving pet battles I'd feel the same way about that as I would hearing my class was being changed due to their impact on PvP.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I guess that reason is fine. Running X dungeon for Y class with Z affixes for the piece you want might be a monster pain in the fucking ass. Thinking about it more it's The Scrapper that I really don't trust. The "throw 1000 of something into a furnace for the one thing you want" gimmick has...

    It is definitely a complicated fix. I am somewhat confused by the refusal to include specific pieces that could be targeted through running a specific Mythic+ but having Mythic+ be the way you target specific items through a vendor.

    If you're giving out two random pieces of Azerite per week through emissary quests than needing 2-3 weeks for enough currency to buy another random one is odd. Being able to to buy a specific piece, even if it is costly, is great. I'm not super keen on putting more weight on The Scrapper...

    South Park

    I wasn't really all that interested in the episode or the "let's go move into the country" thing until I saw it was a marijuana farm with the John Denver parody song but once it got started I was grinning like a mental patient. Randy's schemes combined with Stan's hatred of them is just a good time.

    Asmongold watched a video response from a guy yesterday that thought bringing up psychology and it's ramifications in game design was cynical so I'd put whoever that was down for getting sweet sweet sponsoring.

    I agree completely. It's not the mechanism that I have a problem with but the pacing. For me it's just too fast. My own temperaments aside I don't entirely understand why Blizzard is so quick to invalidate their own content. Relegating Uldir to something you maybe do once on LFR to finish the...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Introducing a catch-up mechanism as large as the Arathi warfront as quickly as it was introduced was a problem all by itself. The normal/heroic/mythic dungeon progression combined with the advancement of item level up through world quest rewards until 340 emissary rewards came online was at...

    I know it's the way things are now but seeing that the next tier of raiding content has item level 370 loot at the LFR difficulty doesn't sit right with me. It may be an irrelevant accomplishment but when I finally hit 370 on Monday evening I was pretty happy and now it's going to be retard level.

    I've been gaining levels in games for over thirty years. Not wanting to go through a slog just to see expansion from the other side or to have a complementary secondary character doesn't make me soft. It used to be faster, they made it slower, and the amount of levels necessary to go from...

    Tournament Mode was going to be a thing that allowed organizations to run tournaments more easily. It was not going to be a full MTGO style tournament support with in-game events and such. I'm guessing people thought it was going to be the latter and that led to Blizzard pulling back entirely...

    Breaking up Aviana but leaving Juicy Psychmelon is some retarded tier balancing. Your undercosted tutor is the problem and it's going to be a problem later if it isn't still one now. It even limits design space by forcing you to take it into account whenever you make a new 7, 8, 9, or 10 mana...

    I like the basic framework of the Azerite Armor system. Being given a big pile of options and tinkering with them to see the different ways they can be utilized is a big part of what I like about gaming. How do these traits interact with each other, different classes, the traits of those...

    That's normally the strategy I try and employ but this time around I wanted to use my boost on a class I wasn't ever going to level up. This entire expansion I've really only played the one character and been the one spec. Coming in with no class experience and having not raided since TBC it's...

    I set myself up for it by using my boost on Priest pre-launch when people were talking up how good the spec was but I'm going to be ever so sad if I get crushed in a patch because of what the game is like on the bleeding edge.

    Pet Sematary (2019)

    I do like that the trailer is focused on some spooky kids (from a flashback I'd guess), Church, the cemetary, and Victor Pascow. The movie looks like it's about one thing and what it's showing you is either misleading or surface level. There's so much pathos left for the audience to experience...

    Every now and then one of the people I gamed with would get this idea to run an old school 1st edition D&D campaign. Hardcore! 4d6 stat generation! We'll play the game as it is supposed to be played! This happened a number of times over the years. Not a single one of those campaigns lasted...

    Bleh, I guess you need to be actually 370+ to get a 370 reward. I'm at 363 and the quest reward is 355. Given the amount of duplicate slot rewards I've gotten I am not very amused to have missed the cutoff. There's only a one-in-three chance this will even be an item level upgrade at all. Again...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I think what you do is launch a couple of new "classic" servers a couple of months before you are launching TBC and then those are just the TBC servers. Can also have transfers from Classic servers to the TBC servers a week before it goes live or something.
