Loki being a female, male, alligator, or robot doesn't matter. What matters if it there are significant changes to what they do and how that impacts the timeline. Kid Loki killed Thor and got nabbed Old Loki only got nabbed when he decided to revisit family vs. still pretending to be dead...

The chip supply shortages have hit everyone. I recall reading that they are working very hard to try to get extra server capacity in place, but they aren't even sure if it will be ready by 6.0.

The next big revolution is already happening: reduction in costs to bring payloads to space. Everything else will springboard off that. It's the same as with railroads and air travel - once you figure out the costs of infrastructure and platform, and get those to reasonable levels, then it...

same reason we don’t have a moon base: just because something is cool, doesn’t mean it is economically practical

Some uncomfortable meetings and quick turn around action plans would be my guess. If subs nosedive, that is when you would probably see mixups in leadership. Bad optics won’t matter to Activision unless it translates into dollars

Right, it’s possible to be great at something, but not so great at an overall position. You could have an amazing engineer, but that engineer might not be the best fit for running the entire business

Apparently Chris Hemsworth actually did some fresh recording for the Frog Thor cameo in the episode lol

While weightlessness is a cool perk, that isn't the sole reason (otherwise vomit comet would be a more affordable alternative). At that price, it's basically for bragging rights to say "I technically went into space". It is also more "affordable" for a larger segment of the population. The...

Not quite - to clarify with information already told to you by your point in the story

Asmon finally beat 2.0 ARR. Now he is starting to try some of the raids/extreme trials

Sylvannis 100% isn't going back to being a horde leader. They've already introduced a replacement Forsaken leader. They'll just do an Illidan and she will be trapped in a "redemption prison" forever - or until they decide to dust her off and use her character again later

I'm wondering what the MCH shotgun will end up being in terms of use - looks like an frontal cone AOE attack, but MCH already have a few of those

Well of course, that's obvious. I never said BO or Virgin were any current competition in actual orbital space.

No, I mean the platforms Virgin and BO are using for tourism stuff are specifically made for that purpose (sub-orbital tourism).

Not a ton of new info. The benchmark seems to show off some of the new abilities and outfits (Zenos uses the Reaper LB3 at the end it looks like). Benchmark comes out Sunday - like previous ones, you can mess around with character creator and save the character templates if you want to use...

When they make them like WHM, they're talking about the healer split in terms of shields vs. heals I believe. Sage and Scholar will be more shields, Astrologians and White Mages more heals.

Game will be in the oven a couple more years at least, so I’m holding off on watching this in any great detail

Anytime you get a “series of long cut scenes” pop up, to be safe make sure you give yourself at least 40+ minutes ARR was extra long, but other xpacs are long as well

Twitch also tends to be pretty trend heavy. Wow shitting itself + WoW fans slowly trying out the game and hyping it up has a snowball effect. Once you hit a major streamer, like Asmon, then it really busts out. Even Shroud was asking Asmon about the game.

SpaceX isn’t banking on tourism for profits, though, to the same degree BO and Virgin are currently. The vehicles Bezos and Branson are going up on are specifically made with tourism in mind. SpaceX just adds some modular stuff to existing platforms. Like the flight in Sept, they will put a...

FFXIV has all sorts of hidden adult stuff. In Limsa Losa, down one of the alleys, some dude hoping to get lucky with 2 prostitutes gets robbed by them and they threaten to cut his dick off lol

Yup, he was another. Also Theramore being bombed (which killed Rhonin) also involved that blue dragon dude that was maybe or maybe not romantically involved with Jaina. He just shows up one day in the game but virtually all his backstory was books/manga.

Right. It’s fine to have novels, but like take WOTLK. Rhonin shows up. Book readers know who he is, players wouldn’t. Then he was killed in a book, not in the game. It’s stuff like that which disconnects players from the story, because the story itself is disconnected across media types

That doesn’t work without a lot more story development. Unsanctioned attack means alliance denies responsibility and horde blames alliance.

Others answered Odin questions, but cool thing about that fate is Odin takes on the appearance of the person who landed the killing blow the last time the boss was killed

Newest major patch dropped. Concludes the BoS story (for now, anyways) They briefly mentioned The Pitt and one character suggests a rumor about someone actually being an alien under the mask during the new quests (which might be true, since there is a Zetan DLC coming up later this year I...

Denying units is one element but also 1) Abilities in dota are more impactful and aren’t spammed in most cases 2) items in dota aren’t just stat sticks - they can add completely new abilities and change the way a hero plays 3) there isn’t as forced a meta as lol in dota 4) comebacks are more...

Since they are just copying Avengers/Thanos 1) Sylvannis with a soul = Nebula now. One of her sisters will end up being a Gamora figure 2) In the comics Nebula got the gauntlet for a bit. They’ll mix that with Tony Stark sacrifice maybe to be her redeem moment 3) Blizzard will give Anduin...

Presentation Yoshi P did a while ago about MMO development https://www.gdcvault.com/play/1020179/Behind-the-Realm

I'm sure they have, but you also have to think about what Branson and Bezos' space companies want to do near term: Tourism. There's no better way for you to tell prospective clients that your platform is safe by using it yourself.

That is it in part, but there are also things like 1) People waiting to have kids 2) Ballooning costs of kids (school, daycare, etc) 3) Desire to maintain a certain standard of living/maintain financial stability requires 2 people working

He has no obligation to tone down shit talking about the state of the game. Asmon said on stream he doesn't give a fuck if the guy thinks he is an asshole, he had more of an issue that a verified Blizzard rep gave visibility to some random Twitter 'victim' post that was actively encouraging...

They already are lol

Population bomb was a concern if numbers remained constant, but it seems that a certain socio-economic level of development, birth rates begin to drop on their own. Now you have lots of nations concerned about a population drop bomb because you need a young workforce to support the aging...

WoW maint was extended

Pretty cool choice by Bezos. 50 years later she finally gets a chance.

During the Make It Rain event, they usually roll out some event-only items you can buy with MGP.

It still has development going on, although resources arent what they used to be. The esports push is the primary thing they killed.
