NPC Comic

Have you heard? There’s not gonna be a BlizzCon this year! Community Manager Bashiok weighed in on the forums to explain why. In short, they feel they wouldn’t have too much to show this year, and want to focus their efforts on releasing content, like Mists of Pandaria. What do you think? [polldaddy poll=5877284] I [...]

Blizzard’s controversial Guardian Cub went on sale yesterday. There’s a 24 hour lock on trading/selling the pet, which means it’s showing up on the auction house today. As of 1:30 pm on my server, Lothar, there are 10 cubs for sale for between 14,000-20,000 gold. How much are they going for on your server? Are [...]

Blizzcon 2011 is upon us. Will it be more exciting than last year? Will there be fun drunken meetups? Will cosplayers level their skill or were they capped long ago? Will Murkablo pets run amok in Azeroth? Will Blizzard announce their new Facebook venture, WoWville? Perhaps by the time you’re reading this you already know the [...]

I like pets in WoW. They’re fun and cute and I even have a few from the store. I think they were all gifts. I like that they don’t affect gameplay. You can take them or leave them and do just as well as anyone else in raids or heroics or pvp. Or the auction [...]

Cataclysm is finally here! Some of you may have played already in the wee hours of the night, some of you may be playing now, and others like myself won’t be playing until tonight after work. Oh yeah, and others of you don’t play WoW and I’m sure are a little annoyed at all the [...]

A few weeks ago, I completed Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms, the achievement that required Alliance players to complete 700 quests throughout the Eastern Kingdoms continent of Azeroth. (I believe the count is different for the Horde.) On Sunday I finished off the Kalimdor version of the achievement. It was a chore that at times I [...]

Blizzard posted an FAQ about the digital version of the Cataclysm expansion today. If you order it the data will start downloading once it’s available, and theoretically you should be able to play at 12:01 AM PST Dec 7 in the Americas, Australia, New Zealand, and Southeast Asia. Europe and Russia will be set at [...]

This gave me the chills.

I was going to do a big post about the results from last week’s poll, but thanks to Blizzard’s fast action on behalf of the outcries about Real ID forum names, there’s not much need. The vocal majority did not want real names in the official forums, and the poll here was no exception. I [...]
