    I'm sure they give him equal credit for all the good things that happened at Blizzard since 1991.

    Or just don't tune shit that tightly? The obsession with balance leads to a lot of this thinking. It got to the point where they were so worried about having to balance things, they just stopped adding new abilities to the game that they couldn't throw out each expansion. It used to be raids had...

    I always toggle off tank stance as well, is it necessary once swaps happen if you shirk in between? I've randomly gone from OT to MT enough times that I just practice an abundance of caution. Playing PLD but usually outdps the other tanks because I am a melee dps at heart.

    I'm sad we don't get to live in the timeline where Steve Ballmer and Chris Metzen both run out on stage at Blizzcon going WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! about WoW 2.

    I have a few macros that do the same ability with mouseover > focus target > target of target > target > self as the priority. The issue with queuing seems to be more with things that are important to keep rolling like dps GCDs. Things like Shirk, Cover, Intervention, TBN, etc all seem fine to...

    I used to joke that when you were putting on a roof, the roof didn't email you at 8pm with an emergency. There was satisfaction in building something, but also in having your day actually end when the sun went down. Problem is, it's hell on your body. My boss told me early on, "Don't be doing...

    It's definitely the 'unpopular kid in high school becomes a rock star' thing. Problem is, adults who relive their lost youth like that never have a moment of progress where they get past it, so they just spiral out of control for way longer than they should. Normal people get that shit out of...

    How do you use oGCD heals while DPSing? Can you set healing targets or do you just switch targets back and forth during the GCD?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    OG Mists of Pandaria challenge modes felt like that. I went in with a pre-made of decent raiders and we had a hell of a time our first time through just clearing, let alone timing it. I'll never understand artificial shit like M+ timers, enrage mechanics, etc. If some shit-cans want to take 4...

    Some forced meme by corporate retards who want Rec Room / VRChat for boomers. <Furors of Heaven>. Worse, he has to lead it past OoW.

    I don't know why people think of game studios as entities that can persist without their key developers/designers. Blizzard without Tigole and the old guard is like Journey without Steve Perry. Who gives a shit?

    I figured there would be a mass exodus once the breast milk tap was turned off, but this just hastens that fate.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    It's a weird contradiction, since Blizzard has always been known to just take other people's ideas and polish them up. I'd say WoW started suffering the most from its own success when it killed off all the competition and lost new MMOs to steal ideas from. At that point, they just started...

    Excedrin Migraine is the closest thing to magic. I think it even has time travel listed on the bottle.

    Only time I would use the map like that was when I'm trying to remember which stupid name I need to click to get to Bozja. Luckily now I am part of the teleport menu master race.

    Most people just want to reexperience 5.0/5.3 while sharing it with someone else who is seeing it for the first time. People who watch outside of that should be considered suspect.

    Pyro is kind of a cunt. He's always scolding his chat and acting all hypersensitive and shit. Really not fun to watch. People are only watching him because of his WoW meltdown to see the lore fag while he's doing the 'most emotional' part of the story. The whole Amaurot thing showed he was...

    New World is a great game if you're the type of MMO player who picks up something new, plays the shit out of it, peters out in the last few levels before max level and then never plays the game again.

    Yeah, because PvEers can only stomach stepping into shitty WoW PvP when game is healthy enough for them to be willing to do so. If there was zero PVE player power incentive to step into PvP, it would be a complete desert wasteland, like it was when people didn't have to maintain their rating so...

    No way. Seems everyone who goes into there is changed. I've seen people who made Good Posts™ that were critical of game design decisions of Blizzard go in there and come out posting the most sanitized, safe, dick sucking shit. It's either a cult or they make you sign something that says you will...

    These generic numbers are bullshit anyway. As Mist says, they just tuck these people into made up 'producer' roles and shit. I don't give a fuck if 50% of your staff is female because you expanded your marketing, social media or accounting depts. I want you to show that 50% of ALL departments...

    Ion was less a product of his corporate resume and more them trying to recapture the lightning in a bottle they had with Tigole and Furor by hiring community members. Unfortunately, that community was EJ.
