SAR: PvP is a Loser’s Game

PvP in a nutshell

Here’s the deal: over the past couple years, we’ve seen a clamoring of hopeful ex-Counter Strike-turned-WoW players clamoring for “the next great PvP game.” These voices are bad for MMOs. There. I said it. PvP doesn’t work, shouldn’t be tried, and creates more problems than it solves. Battlegrounds, arenas, and Wintergrasp should all be removed… [Continue Reading]

WoWWatch: Ready your pandas

500x_custom_1250883324153_Cataclysm

It is finally here…sort of. After months of relative silence regarding when WoW players could expect to call out of work for a week, the hush has been broken. Numerous sites are reporting today (this sounds like a 1950’s radio news broadcast, doesn’t it?) that Cataclysm is due to be released November 2, about two weeks after this year’s Blizzcon. Whether you are insanely excited or just absurdly excited about the impending cataclysm to our social lives, this is big news. With Cataclysm looming ominously on the horizon, what are your plans for the expansion?

My Knight in Shining (or Blazing?) Armor

To be quite honest, if you are viewing this purely because of the title, you are unfortunately going to be let down…I think. Although, I can guess that the two words that led you to explore this blog are “knight” and “blazing.” If I’m right, well then you are predictable, or you just play Warhammer… [Continue Reading]

Gold farmers go over the top, but get creative

A picture speaks a thousand words, so I’ll only write a few. I took these screenshots yesterday while playing World of Warcraft. To give the specifics I was chilling with my druid in Stormwind when I saw an entourage of level 1 warlocks begin to stack themselves in the form of letters some eight feet… [Continue Reading]

WoWWatch: Burning down the house

15-blackrock-depths

So with Cataclysm right around the corner* there have been a ton of “bucket list” articles surfacing. (* “right around the corner” has been trademarked by Blizzard and is equal to a period of time equal to or greater than 1 week to when the ice caps melt.) These “bucket lists” sweetly reminisce about all the fantastic lesser appreciated quests and achievements in the nooks and crannies of Azeroth that may not be available in the future – mainly because Deathwing is a bad mo’ fo’. There are so many that you are probably tired of reading them, but don’t click that back button on your browser! This article is not one of them! With all this sappy sentiment going around I am feeling absolutely counter-culture, like Apple in the early 90’s or PC’s now. Instead of listing all the great quests I will miss, this WoWWatch will feature a few zones, dungeons, and questlines that I can’t wait to see go down in flames.
