    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Many good points. Especially after stating that Dearborn would be somewhat like Timeless Isle only a whole continent worth of content. Instead we get a fuckton of art and assets blown on a ho-hum levelling content and then a couple of mini daily areas within each zone to come back to for...

    The Man in the High Castle

    Oooo nice! Looking forward to this. I do like how the whole nature of 'TV' programming has changed now with these new content producers.

    From the preview for next week's episode Fish is speaking to a Doctor Duhlmaker (Dollmaker) who is indeed the guy behind the organ harvest of the kids earlier in the season.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    So Apexis Crystal items in 6.1 go up to ilevel 670 yet Raid Finder is 650 with very terrible item budgeting? This seems just wacky to me. At this point I think the sole reason for someone to do Raid Finder BRF is for rune stones for the legendary.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Still wondering why 6.1 is 6.1. Usually the .X patches are content patches and the headliners for this patch are Twitter, Blood elf models, and color blindness. Is anyone near enough to 900 rune stones that extending the legendary quest is significant at this point? That seems to be the only...

    Actually I did like having restricted spell bars. Not necessarily to the extent that GW2 does and maybe not the "overcome by looking at a spellbook for a few seconds" but perhaps similar to how dual-spec works in WoW where you can define a limited number of "builds" that you can switch between...

    The Order: 1886

    I dunno. A lot of the positive reviews on metacritic seem to come from the "who did you blow to get included in Metacritic" sites.

    The Flash

    Taking the Flashpoint route would be a good way to shake things up for the start of the second season. Could have Barry be depowered and trying to figure out what the hell is going on and have the city protected by Citizen Cold if they can grab Wentworth Miller for a nice chunk of episodes...

    The Order: 1886

    Reviews are out from the more mainstream sources and are all terrible. Well some go as far as to say uninspired and mediocre, others go way into "crime against humanity" mode. Personally learning that the game is NOT about fighting supernatural beasties is what makes me scratch my head.

    The Flash

    They did say at the end that they we're going to work on figuring out their powers and we previously saw the F.I.R.E.S.T.O.R.M. research was about transmutation so I think they will get there eventually but are taking their time to do so. Much in the same way that merging into proper Firestorm...

    I always said "Too nah ray". I guess it just comes from all those years conjugating verbs in Latin so I pronounced Tunare as if it was the present infinitive of a fake verb 'Tuno'.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Right now I log in and check the Garrison stuff and then log out. I don't even necessarily do that more than a couple times a week because there is nothing else to do after killing Rukhmar each week. I don't have the time to futz around with PUG raids since it takes a freakishly long time to...

    Oh yeah... That's him alright. Quite impressive and note we don't see what becomes of him. Of course it looks like we get the Red Hood for at least an episode coming up.qqw

    That is out my backdoor here in Boston. Note that this is not any kind of dug-in carport or anything. Normally its a completely flat backyard and driveway with my patio and grill buried somewhere towards the back of the picture. Cleared the area around the backdoor to protect the glass and...

    Speaking of a lack of Belle Reve...where the hell is Amanda Waller with all these metahuman nutjobs showing up? You would think this might fall under her purview and additionally she might salivate at the idea of a teleporter on her Suicide Squad.

    Constantine

    Yeah the show does not belong on NBC. I know NBC wants to try and get the demographics of FOX and the CW and so are trying things like this but its just not working. Anymore the original networks are as pigeonholed as any other themed cable network and no amount of counter-programming is going...

    Starting a New Media Business - Looking for Partners

    It makes sense. Once upon a time Gawker and such were the scrappy underdogs of journalism coming out of that freaky new space called "teh intarwebz". Now that they have become the mainstream, or rather that the mainstream changed course to align with them, there is a lack of objectivity. News...

    Starting a New Media Business - Looking for Partners

    I do think there is room for better gaming journalism. Right now the population is so incredibly inbred that literally everyone seems to have worked with / for everyone else and furthermore only exist as means to put a spit-shine on a press release. I understand the situation where you can't...

    Heroes of the Storm

    I seem to be terrible with Chen. I wish his shield from drinking has a slightly longer duration. As it is I seem to just be drinking constantly and thus tank real well but need a partner to actually hit things.

    Constantine

    I did like how the show wrapped up the season. By the end of the original order they seemed to have found their footing and be on the way to establishing a solid overarching story which was missing from the pilot and first batch of episodes. Move it to SyFy and give it the Hellblazer title and...

    I dont know anyone that works at Daybreak, or at least I don't think I do. Either way I have no idea as to how talented their people are. I will say that they seem to have created lots of nice art and at least some game engine elements so I'm not really sure what else you really need to...

    I really don't think there is an untapped market for progression WoW servers. Are there people who want such a thing? Certainly, but I wager that it is such a niche population that it may as well be non existent. Those indy progression type things mostly thrive as labors of love, I don't...

    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    I had completely forgotten about the Fae (and the evil Fae) until it was just mentioned. I remember coming back to the game in a big way right around the time the Odus expansion was released because...well I've always liked Erudin. Anyway I recall thinking "why on earth would they make this...

    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    There are a lot of Class of 90 people in the MMO community. I think it has something to do with being the right age for exposure to Diku Muds and subsequently EQ. Oddly enough some online/industry friends and I were talking about this very subject earlier today and how strange it seems that we...

    Im curious when they are going to visit the whole "illegal prison full of superpowered humans located in the middle of the city" business. I mean how are they even feeding these people? You never see Cisco coming back with a huge box of Big Belly Burgers and carting them over to the detention...

    D&D Sword Coast adventures (4v1)

    That's the notion I had as well. I suspect it will be very much like a NWN module, but with the added interactive touch of having a real life person apply dynamic content. I wonder if it is more Evolve or more Dungeon Keeper

    New Dungeons Dragons Game Sword Coast Legends Coming in 2015 - IGN So it looks like the 4v1 human controlled gameplay trend has reached Dungeons and Dragons. Makes very much sense in the context of the genre. I've been expecting this for some time really. Either from D&D or some other pen...

    Heroes of the Storm

    Well they broke something badly... did a co-op game where we were on the other side (never had that happen before) and at the end it freaked out and said I needed to rejoin my game in progress and then proceeded to autoplay the whole game to "catch up" to the server... and at the end it replayed...

    Cameron Monaghan is the kid they tapped to play The Joker and from what I can tell he has some talent from his work on Shameless and other roles. They seemed to start the season with "yeah Jim Gordon and kid batman and lets have Catwoman be a street urchin and maybe we'll get to episode 10...

    Untitled Bioware Game

    Welp its gone now. Bioware decided to cancel development on the title and has transitioned the people at Bioware Austin to support other games including DA: Inquisition post launch support, Mass Effect series and "big stuff" for SWTOR later this year as part of the Episode 7 lead up.

    Heroes of the Storm

    The only disadvantage, such as it is, is that you really do only need to do your daily quest each day. Playing beyond that doesn't help too much excepting when you are getting each new hero up to level 5 and for just shits n giggles. Like right now I kinda want to play some more because trying...
