Scarybooster had a post up last week that I’m in total agreement with. In it, he talks about why he’s finally decided to leave WoW. Another veteran player leaving the game wouldn’t necessarily warrant its own post but the points Scary raises are worth talking about. I took note of it not because it criticizes …

I don’t know how I missed this, but I did. This video breaks up events from the first 30 minutes of gameplay, splices it with developer commentary, and shows some awesome in-game footage. I love the full voicing. Hopefully that keeps up through the whole game. Enjoy.

As I mentioned in my last WoW-centric post, I started up a raid team with the K&G community guild, Happy Fun Guyz. We had our first real raid weekend between Friday and Saturday and hit two of the three main raids. Between those two and my time in Baradin Hold today, I have a total …

That WoW-kinda feeling is setting in again. It’s that nagging “ugh, there’s something better I could be doing — I don’t know what it is, but it’s there, even if it’s just staring off and thinking of something else I could be doing” kinda feeling. Know what I mean? Where logging in becomes something you …

I’ve been sitting on this post for a week because, well, I don’t currently play any SOE games, so who am I to make a judgment? You know what, though? This is my blog, a place to share my observations, so why be so vanilla as to hold something back I’m thinking on. That’s something …
