I’m curious - what’s the STO equivalent of Mankrik’s Wife?

Well thanks. Now everyone knows I haven’t even picked up the new jobs yet!

ERPing in underwear, or just picked up Samurai and realized they didn’t have any equippable gear? (I hate that moment when I get a new class and have to run naked to my retainers.)

I was so sad when my Witcher 3 keychain broke last winter. I slipped on some ice and came down on my keys and it broke right where the main body of the medallion met the ring for the chain. Though considering how sharp the wolf’s fur is, I probably ought to be grateful that it didn’t embed itself in my femur.

Oh, thank goodness. For a second, I thought Adolph Hitler and the Nazis might NOT be invoked in an article about the frame rate on an RPG video game.

Ugh. I WAS a Paladin back in MC and BWL. I remember how awesome it was when we got Greater Blessings. Now I only had to recast them once for each CLASS! (Though I also remember needing an addon just to manage who was doing which Blessing on what class.)

I think the vast majority of people playing on Classic WoW will be WoW account holders, yes, especially since I’d be willing to bet Blizzard rolls it into the WoW subscription rather than selling it à la carte.

I imagine it will depend on how Classic WoW is done. If it’s something you choose from inside the regular WoW client, like selecting a server, I’d expect Battle.net chat. But if it’s a separate thing, who knows.

Not to mention that every person playing on a Legacy server is one not available to play with people on regular Battle for Azeroth servers, meaning fewer people in PVP, dungeon, and LFR queues.

If you were a Warlock, you were expected to have enough soul shards to make soulstones for tanks or healers and healthstones for everyone. Just the healthstones meant 40 shards, and they were single use, so if everyone popped one on a fight, there’s another forty shards needed. And you couldn’t get them from raid…

As I think about it, I feel like the ideal thing to do would be to recreate WoW’s expansions and feature updates, but on a somewhat accelerated basis so that you went from launch to BC in a year, then wipe the server and restart it. Maybe implement a few more with staggered timing if the player numbers are there. And…

That would be a shipship.

I kind of wish the Live Team had just made Destiny 2 instead of the Destiny 2 team.

Was it?

I loved Ragnarok, and I’d love to see it again (I’ll definitely be buying the home release), but I kind of agree with you. I don’t think it’ll be reappraised into a bad movie except by contrarians, but I think when all’s said and done, it’ll settle somewhere in the middle of the MCU’s tier list.

The only time I wish the movie had rejected its impulse to undercut every emotional beat with a joke was at the end, when Asgard was destroyed. It was a great line, but in hindsight, it really robbed what could have been a powerful moment, and so it kind of undercuts the optimistic part immediately afterwords with…

I think it’s more that people are glad that superhero movies don’t HAVE to take themselves so seriously.

I don’t know what Lightforged Draenei means, but I may need to reactivate my subscription.

And Alextraza! Kind of burying the lede there.
