The people excited about Richard Garriott potentially getting the ultima ip back really don't know Richard Garriott lol dude literally shows up every few years when there's some new tech wave to exploit to try and cash in. Like when shroud of the avatar added nfts

I can confirm the playerbase is extremely friendly, and the content being horizontal you won't have to worry about rushing. It can be pricy, though, so I really do reccomend getting it on sale

Because in the content on a time limit tuned to need near perfect uptime 100% of the fight, it's 4% weaker than another spec

Byproduct of every class technically being 3-4 classes at once, each doing different things with different spells and different playstyles in different roles. Retail WoW is not really unbalanced, you just hear from predominantly highest end players complaining that xyz class is F tier

Essentially the boiling tea kettle that was WoW finally exploding from everything over the years. It was everything everyone hated about WoW all at once + deciding to irreversibly ruin the lore retroactively

Ehhhh I wouldn't go as far to say xalatath has a personality lol I'd argue she has a trope, and that trope is the only thing she's allowed to do. She has to be the "master schemer", so that's how she'll act, talk, present herself and appear in cutscenes

To be fair that plot point was *in* shadowlands, just not explained well. The titans had constellars monitoring what was happening there. Sylvanas saying that the shadowlands are too ordered is them having to shove it to the forefront to make sure people know that's what was happening.

Obv it goes deeper than that but it's hard to fully put into words with a character limit lol

warmblanket @heavenstriker.vanadiel.network · 08/10/2026
IMO midnight is nearly as bad as shadowlands for people who deeply cared about the world, it further "humanized" the elves to the point where they may as well just be humans, really butchered the troll story they tried to tell, and it's just been an endless slop of invasion events and currencies

There's been very little fanfare or even talk online about retails newest patches lol as soon as forever was revealed even the retail people I follow basically went "alright, cool, this is the game I'm playing now"

warmblanket @heavenstriker.vanadiel.network · 08/10/2026
Yesnt, WoW forever being in active dev helps them be more flexible, but retail does change systems fairly fast and frequently. Usually in major patches. That being said, the *content* is locked in advance and they won't, say, completely redesign something while it's current.

It's more of an alternative than anything, imo. The reworked dungeon loot pools + more dungeons at all levels give equally great gear on top of double gatherer just being able to fund any crafted gear purchases that could be useful while leveling.

warmblanket @heavenstriker.vanadiel.network · 05/10/2026
I mean thats kind of the appeal of mmos, isn't it? I've never personally understood the desire for an endless stream of new releases in the genre since they're designed first and foremost to be forever games

warmblanket @heavenstriker.vanadiel.network · 03/10/2026
you should look at the reddit sometime, its really funny. I'm of the opinion that a lot of the friction *is* needed for the experience, but you have people on there arguing that swapping weapons on 1 button is immersion breaking and a "slippery slope" lmao

It's worth playing undead pally regardless cause the new class quests and lore for them is fuckin awesome

It felt a lot more like the gilnean starting area and definitely gave the "you're the special boy of the day and saved your people" in a pretty short time frame
010
warmblanket @heavenstriker.vanadiel.network · 23/09/2026
Only problem I really have with the skyborne area is by the end it does raise the stakes high enough and put enough emphasis on you specifically to feel more like a Cata zone than a vanilla zone. It wasn't bad, but it didn't really feel like the other races starting experiences at all

by far the camping feature, im hoping it creates a lot of interaction on the roleplay server and gives classic professions some life

So apparently the new Final Fantasy XI free trial is coming up next month. Had to make a little something. (I'm not the author of the text itself mind you, but I found it great.)

If guild wars 3 releases and is good before the riot mmo I'll actually lol I have no idea if it'll be good, I hope it will, but I have a lot more faith in anet than riot to make something moderately consumer friendly

From what I saw about leaks it was actually restarted twice, with the most recent being the visible one. They've been rapid fire hiring random WoW devs to work on things like creating a combat system so I don't think it is ever going to come out lol

The fact that conviction in azeroth is always followed by the reveal that the conviction was unnatural and the cause of possession creates an endless army of characters who stand for nothing and speak for no one. Just vapid shells designed to move the plot forward in contrived and forced ways

warmblanket @heavenstriker.vanadiel.network · 19/08/2026
The fact that the entire amani storyline was predicted off of the fucking reveal of 2 characters before release with 90% accuracy is hilarious and sad and I do geniunely hope it's embarrassing enough for the writers to actually try even a little bit in the future to do something beyond tropes

The Disney part was always fairly superfluous to me, I don't hate it, but the kingdom hearts specific stuff is so good that I geniunely wish the game was just that lol with the way the Disney stuff is handled now it's unbearable for me since a lot of it is recreations of the most viral scenes
110
warmblanket @heavenstriker.vanadiel.network · 15/08/2026
It's also, to me, what really made it. It's the smashing together of SE and Disney. Like yeah it was basically solely just a handful of characters nomura designed, but that added a lot of flavor to the series
