That might sound derogatory, but I promise it’s not. As I mentioned a while back, I re-upped my subscription to WoW for this month. My re-entry into the game has been a bit hap-hazard, I’m afriad. My original plan was to work on my Death Knight and pull him the rest of the way to …

The Multiverse – Episode #17: “Ferrel Offends EVERYbody”
Happy Tuesday Folks, Another week, another Multiverse. Riknas was under the weather this week, so it was just Ferrel and I, with Ferrel at the helm. I’ve gotta say, I kind of like being a co-host. And a harvest queen– you’ll just have to listen to get that one. Ferrel was in rare form, too. …
SW:TOR Advanced Classes… WoW Talent Specs?
The internet has been a-buzz with talk about Star Wars: The Old Republic’s newly announced Advanced Class system. It looks neat, in a lot of ways, but I guess I’m a little disappointed. The system looks like a carbon copy of WoW’s talent trees, without the third option. Here’s a look at the comparison my …
Some Assembly Required: Tourism is the Lifeblood of the Industry
Happy Friday All, Just stopping in to let you know that my latest article is live over at Lagwar now. This week we talk about WoW tourism and why it’s a good thing for the industry. Since there’s nothing new here today, why don’t you stop over and have a look?
Re-subbing to WoW and Cataclysm Plans
The Problem I’ve been torn these past couple of days on which direction I should take my MMOing. I’ve been having a lot of fun in LotRO recently so I don’t plan on leaving it out to dry. Still, for some reason I go through periods of drought in that game. If my fun level …
The Multiverse – Episode #16: “I am Betty White”
Happy Monday Everyone! To start the week off right, we’re here to bring you the one-week-delayed Episode 16 of the Multiverse. Things didn’t go off a smoothly as planned but the results are a funnier show. Go figure. This week, our main topic is what it takes for an MMO to get, and keep, our …
SC2 Beta Impressions (or How I Learned to Love the Zerg)
It’s 2:50AM, on a school night (no, I’m not a student), and I’m just getting out of a 3-hour whirlwind session of Starcraft 2. For some people, this may not be a big deal but for me, let me be clear, this is a really really big deal – the deal to end all deals …
Pay-by-Hour is the wave of the… future?
I like to start my week off with a solid butchering of the English language. What can I say? Now, on to our main topic for today: pay-by-hour games. We don’t see these a lot in the Western MMO market. It’s actually a little strange given that it was a big business model for early …
The “I’m With Stupid” Add-on
If you haven’t seen it yet, check out this post by Ixobelle. Now introducing, the I’m With Stupid add-on: the add-on which finally removes the need for all but a single person to think during a raid. Are you a raid leader? Then you too can turn your team into a group of shuffling and …
Why WoW Keeps Pulling You Back
When a player announces that they’re planning on leaving WoW, never to return, a lot of us roll our eyes, smile, and nod. From time to time, I’ll come across posts like these on the official forums, usually greeted by “you’ll be back” responses and promises of “we’ll see you soon.” That’s probably why I’ve …
