@Sorkara_WoW MY BODY IS READY

The funniest thing about the haranir self inserts is that when azeroth wakes up, she won't look like a troll like most people wanted. She'll probably look like a haranir. The truest middle finger to all of WoW's history and lore

Excellent feedback

Pretty jealous of the guys who get to play AC Black Flag for the first time today. A game full of genuine freedom & adventure. Enjoy!!!!

It's why Zul'jan works where Anduin and Arator both failed And Blizzard fails to grasp the gold mine they had in their hands of a character that finally feels real in the franchise

I’ve been looking at this cinematic and it really makes me think about the deeper internal writing problems Blizzard seems to have right now. #Warcraft #Midnight #games Thread 🧵 ⬇️

Xbox just laid off Christiane Meister (27-year veteran), a core Bethesda artist who worked on Skyrim, Oblivion, Morrowind, Fallout 3, and Fallout 4. 😢 linkedin.com/in/christiane-…

This week brought more layoffs, closures, restructures to our changing industry. Passionate game makers finding themselves without a professional home. Despite all of it, something hasn't changed: all over the world, in every demographic, players want to be immersed in worlds that make them feel whole and alive. They want play, mastery, belonging. That demand keeps growing with every generation born into games, and so do their expectations. These worlds will continue to be brought to life by the dreamers and the builders. By those who stay focused on a mission when the ground shifts under them. Tools, processes, and business models will change. But every game that matters in the coming years will still be made by designers, artists, engineers, producers, marketers, and every craft in between who care too much to ship something hollow. We do not choose the era in which we find ourselves. But we keep building anyway. We don't make games because we can, but because we have to. Hang in there, and see you in Runeterra. GG

The first trailer for ‘AANG: THE LAST AIRBENDER’ has been released. Releasing July 25 on Paramount+

@Portergauge i look forward to post TLT wow carrying on the Amalur IP

@Portergauge YEAH BABY FUCK IT TO DEATH WOOOOOH

So is the reveal from this cinematic that elves and trolls aren’t actually a direct lineage anymore? They’re just divergent evolutions from their *real* ancestors in the Haranir? That’s… something.

Absurdly cursed. All it will mean is less new media catered to UK viewers, thus reducing competition and choice.

Watched "I Saw The TV Glow". Woah. I absolutely loved it. Emotionally eviscerating? Devastating? A warning to live? Highly recommend. NOT A POPCORN MOVIE. Don't expect jump spooky horror.

Weaknesses in classes in MMORPGS are not flaws. They are just as important as strengths in shaping their identity. Remove all weaknesses, and both the individual class and the entire class system become less unique and less interesting.

Se acuerdan de la Plaga Roja de hace mil años? VOLVIO, en color verde. Moonguard se vio azotada por una plaga liberada desde Brackenhide Hollow. Basicamente el efecto es el mismo que ocurrio hace muchos años: salieron de la dungeon con un debuff activo y empezo a propagarse fuera de este. Ahora que tenemos Housing toca cuarentena en casa.

@TheAvantasia Yeah, Xal has been a huge letdown - they really would have needed to stick something big with her to pay off the flatly constant aura farming

@BellularGaming Void is underwhelming, old gods makes everything midnight had looks like childsplay

The new Quel'thalas loading screens go way harder, excellent addition. Flavor is important!

@that_kind_oforc :( womp womp

@BellularGaming Flavour showing the first 2 days of the expansion 😂 Should be the dumbwell now

@nightstalker314 Just made me think I guess, this one really hits hard as a loading screen, and it might be more flavourful

@nightstalker314 You portal about plenty

...you really wonder why this wasn't in from the start...

@nightstalker314 i mean in the dev time that the x.0 has, not the expansion pacing (in this case at least)

@BellularGaming Nah, I'd still chalk this up to "Danuser->Metzen" changes. 24-month expansions also rarely had a good pay-off and never filled those gaps with any extra story. And even the follow-up on those drought xpacs rarely showed correlation in storytelling depth.

This is why 18 month expansions are a bad idea! Teams need time to build and iterate in game. It's literally that. Time to cook to a high enough standard.
