Blizzard’s Re-introduction of Flying to WoW

Props to Blizzard. It feels strange that no-flying was even on the table, and from what we’ve heard over the past couple of years makes it clear it was even a controversial topic internally. Like I get that there was a sudden influx of former wow devs or whatever from Titan and that likely saw a shift away from the direction WoW was going, but to have a feature in the game for SEVER YEARS be pulled in current and any future content over really dumb reasons (No one expects to be flying while leveling up, besides Cataclysm, literally every Continue reading →

One of the features in the upcoming Warlords of Draenor expansion to World of Warcraft was a squishing of numbers.

I was going through my WoW folder and discovered some screenshots dating back to The Burning Crusade, although a majority are from after that point. Figured I’d put them on my site — I didn’t catalog as much Continue reading →

World of Warcraft Classic

Posted on by

It all started back in Vanilla, I think even the beta briefly. Truth be told I wasn’t as into WoW then, to me the game seemed far to grindy (more so then I was interested in). Many folks actually forget that one of the ideas behind WoW was to be a sort of “casual gamer’s Everquest” (talk about a grindy game!). You see lots of people, at least the vocal ones, complaining about how bad WoW has gotten, how lame Cataclysm is, and go on to talk about the glory days of Classic (or TBC). Frankly it’s all nonsense, I Continue reading →
