Especially Rivens. I hear picking Riven gives you 200 bonus ping.

Yeah, exactly! They should have just approached GSC for a lot of their stuff imo. It would be a great partnership for both of them - Riot gets a well-respected company handling their figures, and GSC gets League of Legends as a form of “gateway drug” to figure collection.

Riot’s statement ended by saying that they hope to re-release the Ahri statue at some point in the future, but they have to figure out how to make it look better without significantly increasing its cost first.

Except space isn’t the concern at all. Even if it was 200 GB (It won’t be) that still fits on 4 Bluray discs, assuming that PS4’s aren’t BDXL compatible which would mean 100gb of space per individual disc, but since that’s a protocol that’s existed for 5 years nearly I’m sure they are. The point is this is absolutely…

I’m not super fussed either way, I just think it’s cool that it’s being brought back. Genn Graymane is going to be important too from the look of it, so I sort of wonder if Gilneas is getting a stealth makeover?

I’m tenatively okay with this. Can’t wait for Bolvar’s involvement, I’ve heard more than a few credible rumours he’s a major player.

I dunno, I mean Dalaran isn’t really being removed from WotLK for this, so I wouldn’t consider it content theft. Thinking Ashran and garrisons would be enough is comically bad a decision in retrospect, though. I don’t know how they thought that wasn’t going to backfire - Stormshield/Warspear are great if you like PVP,…

Is Acherus at least moving to be somewhere else? I’ve been told Dalaran is, but I really hope Acherus isn’t just out in the sticks. :P

This isn’t “just a regular building”. This is on the Wandering Isle, the zone from the Pandaren starting experience, and if it’s a class hub it means that it’s taking an actual part in events, which is pretty damn huge.

I don’t mean to sound bitter, but is this why Karabor was scrapped as a hub for WoD? I get that Bladespire was also going to be a faction capital and it’s not a class hall, but it feels a lot like they robbed Peter to pay Paul on this one.

The face of a man wondering what the hell this nonsense is.

On the contrary - if I could have managed my fucking Garrison through a mobile app the way everything about the feature screamed, I might have been inclined to DO other things in Draenor instead of logging on, finishing my mining/herbing/work orders and realizing just how futile it all was immediately after.

At risk of sounding petulant, Play-Asia reducing the issue to “SJW nonsense” really makes me not want to continue buying from them. It’s legitimately an issue about artistic freedom vs blatant objectification and to see it handwaved this hard is disappointing at best.

Timed exclusive, which is so much worse. Though I personally feel like exclusives are an outdated model that forces an artificial divide in playerbases, at least exclusive titles DO drive competition and creativity. Timed exclusives are just one company paying out the nose to block out consumers for a perceived but…

I’m not sure they’re a direct 1:1 comparison. With the NFL example the path forward is “Follow your dreams son, but have a backup plan” whereas with most gaming-related fields it’s almost the opposite; the barrier to entry is remarkably lower (though still very high unless you hit several marks for attitude, reflexes,…

If you had roughly the same position I apologize, I’m suuuper used to people who actually use the “don’t follow your dreams” rhetoric with no room for interpretation.

I don’t think it’s about rational or not, I think it’s about realistic or not. If every parent was unsupportive on the athletic front we wouldn’t have athletes, so I don’t know if it’s fair to say encouraging it is wrong. Should you be encouraging and supportive of all your child’s endeavours? Unless it’s literally…

I’m a dipshit and Kinja won’t let me edit, so when I said superheroes I meant supervillains and mistyped as hard as I ever have.

It is! And it’s what I meant to type in the first place, just brainfarted and now I can’t edit. :D

Yeah, I realized my mistype and couldn’t edit it. I hate Kinja sometimes.
