    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I am looking forward to the next iterative progression for MMORPGs that moves away from positioning-based content. Having a constant run-n-gun gameplay with a system that mandates being stationary to actually do anything makes my head hurt. Well that and "dont stand in fire / dragon breath"...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Not too surprising since people who enjoy PVP gaming have lots more / better options these days.

    Supergirl

    It would have been interesting to put Supergirl on Earth, but then they would have had to eliminate Superman or just macguffin him away for events like this. They could at least toss Mon El onto the Legends or something.

    The Final Fantasy Mega Thread - Now playing FFXV

    Not seen a hitch here either and similarly using a launch day PS4. Game certainly has an Entourage feel to it, but adapting the Warriors of Light motif to a world with CD players and smart phones I suppose that is natural. Not overly wild about the magic system as it feels weird making magic...

    Supergirl

    I sort of knew it would be lame like this since, as others pointed out, she's on a different Earth. It might have worked out better had the Dominators been a recurring issue in Supergirl so far this season, but that doesn't seem to be the case. In the spirit of things I watched the episode...

    Arrow

    If I had to guess (based on the original Invasion! plotline) everything is centered on Flash/Central City since that is the epicenter of metahumans in the DCTV universe. The reason for the invasion in the first place seems to be consistent with the original plot: metahumans from Earth are a...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Managed to get a second legendary on my Monk, who doesn't have that unlocked so good timing of the 5k order resources weekly quest. I'm also amused that the "Lavish Suramar Feast" is a ham and some sausages sitting on a few rocks next to a dismembered foot.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    It has been months and I still find myself hitting "blink" and then "blazing speed" on my Arcane Mage despite "blazing speed" no longer existing. I had to make sure that key was set to something innocuous to avoid getting into trouble while zipping around an area.

    Arrow

    I swear if they are trying to pull a 'Judas Contract' I will smack a bitch. Then again they have used every other main plot line from Wolfman/Perez era Teen Titans so why not.

    Star Wars Rebels

    Was still very cool to canonize the ship type. They have always been pretty good about internally consistent continuity, so I keep expecting the first wave of their newly built B-Wings to show up. Would also be good to have an in-show reason why they have A and B-wings in Rebels but no sign of...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I can honestly say I have no interest whatsoever in the "sheep" hidden artifact for Arcane Mages. Hopefully if, down the road, they decide to make another round of hidden appearances they do one for Arcane that isn't just a joke.

    Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016)

    Saw this and it was quite good, definitely did a lot of world-building of 1920s Wizarding in the USA. Worth noting that it did so in a way that was very clear to one of my moviegoing compatriots who had never before seen a Harry Potter movie nor read the books. In addition we will now be...

    Tyranny

    This is a game you have to be in the right mood for / prepared to read a ton because there is a LOT of story and world-building going on. Thankfully they give you highlighted key terms that you can mouse over to get enclopedia entries of to help keep track of who is who. I always seem to get...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I would have thought with the recent surge of Gilneas stuff since Legion launched that we might get a nice Mastiff with or without demonic green glow.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    This is different from the Doctor Who stuff as those are Fathom Events / special individual screenings vs. putting something in cinemas for a solid 2-week run. The best analog I can think of is the Buck Rogers in the 25th Century pilot "movie" which was shown in cinemas in March of 1979 several...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    This is nuts. The TV division is taking their shit to cinemas in a direct challenge to the MCU group.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Ahh I misread the timeline initially. This allows things to progress without dealing with the whole Mass Effect 3 ending issues. Presumably this also precludes a 'twist' where the antagonists are likewise from the Milky Way just a couple hundred years after we left. Getting passed en-route...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Finally got a legendary, on my Mistweaver Monk alt... Well at least this might prompt me to use Thunder Focus Tea more often. I find myself not bothering with a good portion of the Mistweaver loadout because it hasn't been necessary to keep things alive in the (admittedly low end) content I've...

    Bringing Cheryl back was really cool, and she did an amazing job in the role.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    2185 (20 years after Mass Effect 1) : The Andromeda Initiative is scheduled to launch. Privately funded and operating independently from the Systems Alliance, the Initiative’s mandate is to make a 600-year journey to the Andromeda galaxy in hopes of establishing a new home world. This...

    Holy crap. I guess they really did learn from the abortion that was WoD. I knew we were going to Argus, but I didn't think it would be in this expansion... yowza.

    DC's Legends of Tomorrow

    I am still waiting to see how they rectify Barry Allen and Flashpointing all over the damn place if he so much as sneezes in the past versus the Legends killing people and dropping zombies etc into the Civil War without much in the way of consequences

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    It is pretty terrible that you don't get at least one of those shards for finishing a non-Mythic dungeon. The rewards themselves are aimed squarely at the people who are doing daily heroic plus WQs, yet in doing such I have yet to get a single shard. At this point I don't fully understand why...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Why do people hate the artifact / relic system? Is it because the ilevel is dependent on relics which are too random in terms of what artifact ability they modify? I actually think its nice because it prevents people from being completely fucked over due to lack of getting mega-uber-ultra drop...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    I suppose CBS was feeling frustrated at the lack of progress...which is understandable given that they don't have a cast yet and are supposed to start filming in a couple weeks. This whole thing is looking more and more like an unmitigated disaster.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I finally saw a person receive a legendary in my guild (very small ~10 people of which only 3-4 play regularly) so I am hopefully gonna get pity loot myself soon. It is good that the Karazhan attunement requires so many Mythic dungeon runs as that should help some of the drama for those seeking...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I made a Mage on Hyjal, but is there some other class-type need for the Hyjal-peeps? I figured I might as well use the boost since I didn't need it on my other server what with the crazy pre-expansion exp farm.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Still not a single legendary here. I've taken to inspecting random people I get grouped with for the daily heroic and it seems I must not be the only one as rarely does more than 1 person in a group have a legendary.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    I do like the social aspect of "bring your console over" as it harkens back to LAN party type socialization for gamers who are now adults and are looking to try and maximize their freetime. That was something the 3DS did extremely well, but use was still somewhat limited to those people who...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    So its a Gameboy/WiiU hybrid. Pretty much what everyone expected, but cool concept with the wireless / detachable controller things. Looks like they are aiming for the Venn Diagram intersection of Console, Old-skool Mobile, and iPhone gaming.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I will say that having completed my third golden trait I find myself feeling a lot less motivated to finish off the remaining 8-ish points to get to the flat-stat. At this point the traits I have left are, by selection effect, rather bleh and the only reason I'd pursue further is to reach that...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I do like that the Mage Hall has a Death Star Superlaser option to nuke a WQ from Dalaran, I've been using it on the PVP objectives and gaining free AP from Honor rewards without ever setting foot in a PVP area.

    DC's Legends of Tomorrow

    It was not as good as it should have been by half. Most of the actors were wasted with bad dialogue and the overall plot was just hackneyed. It looks like Geoff Johns may have taken a much more direct role in Season 2, however, given the overall character of the first episode (and with the JSA...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I'm not sure what the numbers are on characters that have yet to get a single legendary, but have that finally bonus unlocked is, but I'm betting it is more than they intended at the outset. As it is I logged in today and got the achievement for having finished all of that and just felt rather...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Did a few Timewalker dungeons last night on my Mistweaver... holy crap the BC dungeons were unforgiving in terms of incoming damage. Everything is going great and then WHAM all the hit points just vanish, not to mention the Arcatraz and the goddamn maggots that seemed to be heat-seeking towards...
