Our Midnight Deep Dive

Our Midnight Deep Dive
Azeroth Morning Radio: A World of Warcraft Podcast
Our Midnight Deep Dive

This week, we’re diving headfirst into Midnight — Blizzard’s brand-new World of Warcraft expansion — and breaking down everything from the zones and story to the new features, class updates, and that wild Void-touched Demon Hunter spec.

We’ll cover the biggest reveals from Blizzard’s Midnight Deep Dive & Q&A, including player housing, guild neighborhoods, and the Haranir allied race, and share what’s got us most excited (and maybe a little cautious).

Plus, we’re spotlighting the community — Pulling Aggro IRL, Ragnon Gaming, and The Warband Podcast all get a shoutout this week. Thanks for tuning in, and as always, good morning, Azeroth!

1
00:00:52,860 --> 00:00:58,620
And good Tuesday morning
everybody. Welcome. This is Azeroth

2
00:00:58,620 --> 00:00:59,820
Morning Radio.

3
00:01:00,540 --> 00:01:01,700
Greetings friend.

4
00:01:01,700 --> 00:01:04,350
Thank you Malfurion. We
appreciate you welcome everybody.

5
00:01:04,350 --> 00:01:08,270
This is episode number two. So
stoked to have you all here. We are

6
00:01:08,270 --> 00:01:11,470
back. It's good to be back in
the air on the airwaves and we are

7
00:01:11,470 --> 00:01:16,550
your hosts. My name is Jibs
and I'm joined by voted 5 time best

8
00:01:16,550 --> 00:01:20,710
door greeter at the Darkmoon
Faire outhouses. His name is Cash.

9
00:01:21,270 --> 00:01:24,830
Seriously, we're gonna
continue doing this and I'm just,

10
00:01:24,830 --> 00:01:27,990
I'm gonna be your punching
bag. Apparently on this show.

11
00:01:28,550 --> 00:01:30,710
I didn't know they had door
barriers, but apparently they do

12
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:32,240
at the outhouse, which is fine.

13
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,080
Well, first of all, I love the
Dark Moon Fair. And second of all,

14
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,960
I have a vested interest in
everybody's bow habits.

15
00:01:37,960 --> 00:01:40,080
Oh well that's so. That's perfect.

16
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,640
Everybody, everybody needs a
poop coach, bro.

17
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,040
Can you imagine how that's
going to go?

18
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:50,480
Knocking on the door?

19
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:52,720
You can do it.

20
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:59,680
You got some massive T who's
been walking around the fair eating

21
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,540
fair food all day long and
he's just trying to look a quiet

22
00:02:03,540 --> 00:02:08,220
corner to poop. And I'm
outside going, you can do it.

23
00:02:12,140 --> 00:02:16,100
Oh, that's so good. Oh my
gosh. And of course the boys are

24
00:02:16,100 --> 00:02:16,380
here.

25
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,340
yeah,look,it's theChromedometwins.

26
00:02:19,740 --> 00:02:21,580

00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:06,640
Yeah, it was. It was a very
humbling response to, to our first

35
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:12,800
show and I do want to say
this, it is very intimidating coming

36
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:18,000
into a brand new space, let
alone that space being the king of

37
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:25,360
the world's MMOs and to be
able to experience the love that,

38
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,020
that we were shown, you know,
both from know, our own little community

39
00:03:29,500 --> 00:03:32,540
to Guildies, which we're going
to talk about here coming up soon.

40
00:03:32,540 --> 00:03:34,140
Yeah, we got the green light and.

41
00:03:34,220 --> 00:03:37,580
And just, you know, other
other podcasters and Twitter and,

42
00:03:37,580 --> 00:03:44,420
you know, all the things was
very, very heartwarming and it really

43
00:03:44,420 --> 00:03:47,100
did show exactly what we're
going for.

44
00:03:47,180 --> 00:03:47,620
Yeah.

45
00:03:47,620 --> 00:03:52,780
That this community is one of
the best communities in gaming, period.

46
00:03:52,860 --> 00:03:57,980
Yep. 100%. 100%. It was just
so nice to, just to hear from so

47
00:03:57,980 --> 00:04:01,140
many people and people that
like, we had a lot of people from

48
00:04:01,140 --> 00:04:03,700
Ashes of Creation reach out to
us when we were creating over there

49
00:04:03,700 --> 00:04:07,060
and they were just. Gosh, it
just felt. You just felt the love.

50
00:04:07,140 --> 00:04:11,020
And so to everyone who tuned
in, to everyone who reached out,

51
00:04:11,020 --> 00:04:16,700
thank you so much for the warm
welcome to this space and yeah, looking

52
00:04:16,700 --> 00:04:19,140
forward to many, many more, my friend.

53
00:04:19,410 --> 00:04:22,890
Yeah, and it's been. This has
been a really good treat for, for

54
00:04:22,890 --> 00:04:26,690
both Jibs and I to get back
behind the mics. It is something

55
00:04:26,690 --> 00:04:30,490
that we really enjoy doing
and, you know, even we talk about

56
00:04:30,490 --> 00:04:34,210
it all the time to where just
a lot of our just normal conversations

57
00:04:34,210 --> 00:04:37,410
that we have, you know,
despite the fact there's a lot more

58
00:04:37,410 --> 00:04:40,290
cuss words and stuff, because
this is a friendly show for the most

59
00:04:40,290 --> 00:04:46,830
part. The banter that, that
Jibs and I can have on the airwaves

60
00:04:46,830 --> 00:04:52,350
is much like just, you know,
two dudes talking the way we normally

61
00:04:52,350 --> 00:04:52,710
would.

62
00:04:52,790 --> 00:04:53,270
Yeah.

63
00:04:53,350 --> 00:04:57,910
And then when we're able to
hit play, it just, it, it brings

64
00:04:57,910 --> 00:05:01,750
more to the conversation when
we can really focus down on World

65
00:05:01,750 --> 00:05:06,110
of Warcraft and bring you as
much of that experience. Just like

66
00:05:06,110 --> 00:05:08,910
we're, you know, like we're
talking in a bar over a couple of

67
00:05:08,910 --> 00:05:12,830
brews as we can, and it's a
lot of fun for us. So getting back

68
00:05:12,830 --> 00:05:16,380
behind the mics, I think has
been, it's been a huge boon to my,

69
00:05:16,700 --> 00:05:19,660
to my life, honestly. Oh yeah,
It's a lot of fun.

70
00:05:19,660 --> 00:05:22,860
Absolutely. Absolutely. And so
welcome back, everybody. Thank you

71
00:05:22,860 --> 00:05:28,100
again so much for pushing
play. This is the show for all of

72
00:05:28,100 --> 00:05:30,580
you wonderful folks in the, in
the wonderful community, but this

73
00:05:30,580 --> 00:05:33,820
is Warcraft for the rest of
us. So the casuals, the nine to fivers,

74
00:05:33,820 --> 00:05:35,820
those of you who got a sink
full of dishes and you've got 30

75
00:05:35,820 --> 00:05:39,460
minutes to play, but you still
love Azeroth, well, that's what this

76
00:05:39,460 --> 00:05:42,950
show is for. Two, it's for.
And quite frankly, we're just excited

77
00:05:42,950 --> 00:05:47,070
to be here with you all this
week on the show. We have a jam packed

78
00:05:47,070 --> 00:05:50,590
week. But before we get into
that, what was Warcraft like for

79
00:05:50,590 --> 00:05:52,110
you this week, dude? What'd
you do?

80
00:05:52,270 --> 00:05:55,710
It was, it was plentiful. I
had my work cycle started this week

81
00:05:55,710 --> 00:06:02,030
so I was, I was waylaid a
little bit by work. Had a busy cycle

82
00:06:02,030 --> 00:06:07,350
but it was still filled with
Warcraft. And if I'm, if I'm to hit

83
00:06:07,350 --> 00:06:13,570
the highlights. We started up
a mythic group this week. You and

84
00:06:13,570 --> 00:06:16,490
I were a little bit behind and
some of the folks that we started

85
00:06:16,490 --> 00:06:20,210
up with were much further
along than we were. But we're still

86
00:06:20,290 --> 00:06:25,970
very happy to push lowkeys
with us and also grab us at any time

87
00:06:26,130 --> 00:06:34,010
they needed it and drop us
into hierarchies which proved to

88
00:06:34,010 --> 00:06:38,510
be actually very fun and very
eye opening. You know, as I myself

89
00:06:38,510 --> 00:06:40,670
and I know you're kind of in
the same boat, but we're still kind

90
00:06:40,670 --> 00:06:45,910
of learning a lot of the, a
lot of the dungeons. But in just

91
00:06:45,910 --> 00:06:51,110
the week I was able to get my,
my 2K rating and I think the highest

92
00:06:51,110 --> 00:06:55,590
key that, that I did this week
was a 10 and it was an eye opener

93
00:06:55,990 --> 00:07:01,190
but fun, super fun. So really
I'm really enjoying the mythics.

94
00:07:01,350 --> 00:07:05,690
It's making me learn my class.
It's allowing me to learn my class

95
00:07:06,410 --> 00:07:11,290
very, very well. As you know,
I play resto druid and yeah I guess

96
00:07:11,290 --> 00:07:14,770
for the second bullet points,
any downtime that I had this week

97
00:07:14,770 --> 00:07:18,970
where I wasn't running group
content, I was as I know you are,

98
00:07:19,210 --> 00:07:24,330
I was pushing BFA content that
I hadn't finished for housing stuff.

99
00:07:24,490 --> 00:07:28,570
And then yesterday, just as a
quick mention yesterday you'll probably

100
00:07:28,570 --> 00:07:34,680
get into it, but we actually,
we chat GPT A basically a plan for

101
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,440
us for preparing for housing
because as you know, housing is attached

102
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,040
to achievements that you've
done in the past which I'm sure we

103
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:46,200
both spread across, I don't
know, probably dozens of characters

104
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:50,480
that we've had over the years.
At some point we're going to tangent

105
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:54,360
on the story of the amount of
alts we have, which is the reason

106
00:07:54,360 --> 00:08:00,290
why I stick to one character
now, man. Yeah, but yeah, I said

107
00:08:00,290 --> 00:08:03,570
it last week that and actually
I got called out on it by Stark who's

108
00:08:03,570 --> 00:08:07,050
one of our good friends and he
goes dude, you're so full of crap.

109
00:08:07,370 --> 00:08:10,730
You have more alts than
anybody I know. And I was like yeah,

110
00:08:10,730 --> 00:08:13,770
you're kind of right. But
that, that's the reason why now I

111
00:08:14,170 --> 00:08:17,850
really, really try to stick to
one character anyway, without segueing

112
00:08:17,850 --> 00:08:21,770
too much into a whole other
topic. We have been looking for ways

113
00:08:21,770 --> 00:08:25,730
to prepare for housing. And so
we're achievement hunting and we

114
00:08:25,730 --> 00:08:31,060
chat GPT, a really good plan
for hitting every dungeon in the

115
00:08:31,060 --> 00:08:36,460
game, every raid in the game,
just for those achievements. And

116
00:08:36,700 --> 00:08:43,540
the funny part was last night
we were running dead mines. Yeah.

117
00:08:43,540 --> 00:08:46,780
And we discovered some new
stuff and we were like, wait a minute.

118
00:08:47,180 --> 00:08:50,620
It's like we were getting
achievements. I'm like, how long

119
00:08:50,620 --> 00:08:54,300
has it been since I've run
deadmines? But there were some different

120
00:08:54,540 --> 00:08:57,340
things in there that we were
like hitting achievements for is

121
00:08:57,340 --> 00:09:00,850
like a whole, whole new
storyline. At the end with Van Cleef,

122
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,200
I was like, what? It's
freaking been forever since I've

123
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:05,000
run this dungeon.

124
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,080
Yeah, I bet. I ran that
dungeon a year ago. And what it's

125
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,240
in there now. I don't want to
spoil for anybody who hasn't maybe

126
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,720
haven't ran it yet, but there
is, there's things I had never seen

127
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,280
before. And I'm like, what is
this? When did they have this? You

128
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,440
know, like, it was just a
whole, like, different experience.

129
00:09:21,560 --> 00:09:25,600
And maybe it was. I don't, I
don't, I don't. I honestly, I thought

130
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,480
maybe it was like level
related or maybe like difficulty

131
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,480
related, I don't know. But
like, it was totally different. And

132
00:09:31,900 --> 00:09:34,020
just going back in those old
dungeons, I'll be the first to tell

133
00:09:34,020 --> 00:09:37,620
you, like, I love Trial of
Style. I love it. Whenever in Moon

134
00:09:37,620 --> 00:09:40,740
Guard, you best bring your A
game because the role players, when

135
00:09:40,740 --> 00:09:44,340
they show up at Trial of
Style, it is like you are, you are

136
00:09:44,340 --> 00:09:47,180
going against the creme de la
creme of Transmoggers.

137
00:09:47,260 --> 00:09:49,420
It's real. The Transmog is
real on.

138
00:09:49,820 --> 00:09:54,140
It is so real. And it's like,
it's like the living and breathing

139
00:09:54,140 --> 00:09:58,350
version of the, the Transmog
Reddit. Like the people on the Reddit

140
00:09:58,350 --> 00:10:03,150
for Transmog are in like a
whole nother caliber of player that

141
00:10:03,150 --> 00:10:05,070
it's like you think you're
good and then you get on there and

142
00:10:05,070 --> 00:10:07,350
you just feel. So by the end
of it, you're rocking in a corner.

143
00:10:07,590 --> 00:10:10,310
I'm okay. I do okay. I do okay.

144
00:10:11,670 --> 00:10:13,750
The crying Game playing in the background.

145
00:10:14,150 --> 00:10:18,470
Yeah, exactly. And so anyway,
it's great to do these old dungeons

146
00:10:18,470 --> 00:10:21,630
and get these achievements
because yes, you're getting the achievements

147
00:10:21,630 --> 00:10:25,110
for housing things, but also
all the old transmog that you don't

148
00:10:25,110 --> 00:10:30,030
realize you don't have. I
remember this one guy who, gosh,

149
00:10:30,030 --> 00:10:33,310
this has been Years ago now.
But he, he had a goal to collect

150
00:10:33,310 --> 00:10:36,550
every piece of plate armor. I
think it was plate. It was either

151
00:10:36,550 --> 00:10:40,790
plate or mail. Maybe mail. It
was over 10,000 pieces and he got

152
00:10:40,790 --> 00:10:44,230
them all. And I'm just like,
yep, that's life goals.

153
00:10:45,670 --> 00:10:50,510
Yeah, that's worse than
Loremaster with 3300. Quite the 3300

154
00:10:50,510 --> 00:10:53,070
quests. I did the get that
title years ago.

155
00:10:53,070 --> 00:10:57,150
Yeah. Gosh, dude, I'm so
nervous. Not nervous, but just like

156
00:10:57,390 --> 00:10:59,990
I. I look at that task ahead
because, you know, it's so many more

157
00:10:59,990 --> 00:11:03,790
expansions now and the quests,
you know, so many more quests even

158
00:11:03,790 --> 00:11:09,150
than then what you had. I bet
is. I Bet it's close to 4000. 4000

159
00:11:09,150 --> 00:11:10,270
ish at this point, at least.

160
00:11:10,270 --> 00:11:13,750
Yeah. If not more. But I mean,
honestly, dude, what do you. What

161
00:11:13,750 --> 00:11:16,350
else do you. We have to do? I
mean, there's plenty to do in the

162
00:11:16,350 --> 00:11:19,190
game, don't get me wrong, but
it's like we have nothing but time.

163
00:11:19,190 --> 00:11:22,160
Oh yeah, yeah, that's true.
That's the best part about the game.

164
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,320
You log in and just like it's
so vast now. Over well over 20 years,

165
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,240
you know, we're celebrating
20, the 21st anniversary in a couple

166
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,120
months. You know, it's just,
it's a beautiful place to be because

167
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,680
it's so massive. It's like,
hey, you want to go collect pets?

168
00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:38,400
Go do that thing. You want to
go collect. You don't have a random.

169
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,440
Like, I started collecting
books. I have, I opened a slot in

170
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:45,440
my bank. I've named the tab
and it's just like books, fun, collectibles,

171
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,400
whatever. And all the
manuscripts, all the books that I

172
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:49,320
collect, I put them in there.

173
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,600
Oh, that's such a good idea.
That's like something that I. That

174
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,040
I did in Elder Scrolls games.

175
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:55,960
Yeah, me too.

176
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:57,600
I love to collect books.

177
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:58,080
Yeah.

178
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,840
Particularly because you can
open them and read them and it's

179
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,720
really cool to see the ones in
this game that you can open and read

180
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,840
and actually brings up a
really interesting point that we

181
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,920
should probably talk about
when we do. When we talk about the

182
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:14,880
Q and A that just happened in
regards to housing and the way we

183
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,560
might in the future be able to
store our books.

184
00:12:17,560 --> 00:12:21,440
Hope so, because that was
awesome. That was awesome. But anyway,

185
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,720
so this week on the show we
have the heroes call boards returning.

186
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:28,080
We have a deep dive and Q and
A on midnight. And of course Snark

187
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,760
makes its return. Folks. It's
a massive, massive episode. Hope

188
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,040
you like a longer episode than
last week because you're getting

189
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,320
it. And it starts right after
this commercial break. We'll be right

190
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:45,010
back. In a city built on gold,
greed, and bad business deals, one

191
00:12:45,010 --> 00:12:53,170
goblin refuses to pay the
price. Grizzle. Gear Grind. Maybe

192
00:12:53,170 --> 00:12:58,170
you've heard of me.
Demolitions. Negotiations. Extractions.

193
00:12:58,570 --> 00:13:04,810
I'm a freelancer. This summer,
he's taking on his biggest enemy

194
00:13:04,810 --> 00:13:13,550
yet. I own every second of
your life. Gear Grind. Yeah, well,

195
00:13:13,550 --> 00:13:30,790
guess what. Time isn't money,
friend. Time isn't money. Coming

196
00:13:30,790 --> 00:13:33,980
soon to a theater near
Ogremmar. Tickets on sale for way

197
00:13:33,980 --> 00:13:34,780
too much gold.

198
00:13:40,220 --> 00:13:44,540
Welcome back, welcome back,
welcome back. And so we decided to

199
00:13:44,540 --> 00:13:47,860
make this official. We came
out with a bumper this week on this

200
00:13:47,860 --> 00:13:52,620
one for the Hero's call. So
let's go ahead and get that started.

201
00:13:54,780 --> 00:13:58,460
Hero's Call! (Heroes Call
Bumper Plays)

202
00:13:58,460 --> 00:14:01,300
Just about as cheesy as it
gets. And that's the way we like

203
00:14:01,300 --> 00:14:01,540
it.

204
00:14:01,540 --> 00:14:05,120
In my head, I just picture you
just like yelling that in someone's

205
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,960
face, like military style, and
just full on slapping them in the

206
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:08,200
face.

207
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,640
It's a Stormwind Guard. It's.
What are you talking. It's not me.

208
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:12,840
Oh, I'm sorry.

209
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:13,720
Duh.

210
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:18,880
Immersion. Immersion breaking.
So anyway, Heroes call. So for those

211
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:23,600
of you who don't know, here at
amr, we love to highlight wholesome

212
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,800
things in the community,
things that people are doing, maybe

213
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,080
initiatives that are, you
know, and if there's something going

214
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,600
on that maybe we haven't seen,
please email it to us over at our

215
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:35,800
website on the contact page.
Or you can just email us@azerothmorningradiomail.com

216
00:14:36,410 --> 00:14:39,930
but send stuff to us because
we want to highlight it here. And

217
00:14:40,730 --> 00:14:44,490
I don't know, maybe they were
nervous, like, hey, we don't know

218
00:14:44,490 --> 00:14:47,610
if these guys are going to be
awful, so let's just wait and decide

219
00:14:47,610 --> 00:14:49,770
on what we're going to do
before we give them a green light

220
00:14:49,770 --> 00:14:54,650
to promote our guild. Okay,
sounds good. All right. So we don't

221
00:14:54,650 --> 00:14:57,530
know if that's how it went
down, Cash, but we've been given

222
00:14:57,530 --> 00:14:59,930
the green light to promote the
guild. So we're. We're stoked.

223
00:15:00,890 --> 00:15:05,100
I'm actually very happy with.
And we don't know, like, the backstory

224
00:15:05,100 --> 00:15:08,780
of. Of how it happened, but
you know, we were talking about like,

225
00:15:08,780 --> 00:15:11,220
hey, we'd really like to
promote the guild that we're in because

226
00:15:11,220 --> 00:15:13,980
it's. It's a. It's a really
fun guild with really good people

227
00:15:13,980 --> 00:15:19,300
who have been together for.
For quite a long time. And so we

228
00:15:19,300 --> 00:15:23,420
had. We had mentioned before,
we did episode one that, hey, we'd

229
00:15:23,420 --> 00:15:27,940
really like to shout out the
guild. And I was very impressed with

230
00:15:28,180 --> 00:15:31,510
the leadership in our guild.
They're like, well, you know, let

231
00:15:31,510 --> 00:15:34,190
us discuss it a little bit.
And maybe it was because they wanted

232
00:15:34,190 --> 00:15:36,990
to hear the first show first,
make sure that we.

233
00:15:36,990 --> 00:15:38,350
I don't blame them at all.

234
00:15:38,590 --> 00:15:44,230
We weren't just off our
rockers, but we got, we got a really,

235
00:15:44,230 --> 00:15:48,590
really good response after,
after they listened to our first

236
00:15:48,590 --> 00:15:54,070
show and just, just very, very
heartwarming comments about our first

237
00:15:54,070 --> 00:15:57,640
show. So, so we were first of
all very. A very heartfelt thank

238
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:01,000
you for. Yes, for doing that.
And then we got the green light to

239
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,160
shout out our guild. And I
think we're very proudly going to

240
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:11,120
shout out our guild. Our guild
is called Pulling Aggro irl and this

241
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,520
guild was formerly known as
AES Sedai. It's a community that's

242
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,480
been together, just a
community of people that have been

243
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:21,800
together since 2017. And jibs
and I did a lot of looking around

244
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:26,900
before we decided to pick a
guild. Picking a guild is it. If

245
00:16:26,900 --> 00:16:32,700
you're planning to be involved
and you're planning to, you know,

246
00:16:32,940 --> 00:16:35,540
to show up to some of the
event. They have some pretty amazing

247
00:16:35,540 --> 00:16:39,700
events and stuff in this guild
that they're doing weekly. They have

248
00:16:39,700 --> 00:16:44,780
some really good groups that
are running. They're raiding together,

249
00:16:44,780 --> 00:16:48,220
they're running Mythics
together. There's. They do movie

250
00:16:48,220 --> 00:16:55,250
nights, they do trivia, which
you won, actually did. Jibs won one

251
00:16:55,250 --> 00:16:55,570
of the.

252
00:16:55,570 --> 00:16:58,130
I did. I got 50k off that
thing. It was awesome.

253
00:16:58,290 --> 00:17:02,290
Faster fingers at Chat GPT
while it's going on, I'm sure.

254
00:17:02,290 --> 00:17:04,370
No, maybe a little.

255
00:17:04,370 --> 00:17:07,290
But anyway, you know, we
really just wanted to find like a

256
00:17:07,290 --> 00:17:12,530
family friendly guild that was
kind of built on good vibes and low

257
00:17:12,530 --> 00:17:16,810
pressure and life comes first.
That's what our show's about. And

258
00:17:16,810 --> 00:17:21,900
that is the, the culture that
we like to experience in our gaming.

259
00:17:22,220 --> 00:17:27,420
And this guild like was right
down that alley for us. It's basically

260
00:17:27,420 --> 00:17:30,340
made for adults, professionals
and you know, people who have kids

261
00:17:30,340 --> 00:17:32,780
screaming in the background
and hey, afk, I got to put my kid

262
00:17:32,780 --> 00:17:37,780
to bed. No problem. And for
the most part, I mean, I think the

263
00:17:37,780 --> 00:17:40,780
guild was, was built and
founded around achievement hunting.

264
00:17:40,780 --> 00:17:44,300
And there's still a lot of
that going on. And don't, don't get

265
00:17:44,300 --> 00:17:49,940
me wrong, we've seen folks in
Pulling Agro IRL that are. It's the

266
00:17:49,940 --> 00:17:52,700
full gamut. I mean, you have
people that are. That are logging

267
00:17:52,700 --> 00:17:55,340
in for half an hour, saying
hi, doing their thing, and they're

268
00:17:55,340 --> 00:17:58,620
gone. And then you. There's
definitely some neck beaters in there

269
00:17:58,620 --> 00:18:01,140
as well that are put, you
know, they're pushing high keys and

270
00:18:01,140 --> 00:18:04,540
trying to do all the higher
level stuff. I know there's spreadsheets

271
00:18:04,540 --> 00:18:07,740
out there, but for the most
part it's just a really, really good

272
00:18:08,220 --> 00:18:13,340
casual community where there's
no expectation if you screw something

273
00:18:13,340 --> 00:18:17,240
up. Trust me, I've screwed up
plenty of Mythics over the last week.

274
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,880
And they're like, no, it's not
you. We're fine. And I'm like, but

275
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,960
my healing, I missed heal. He
didn't have hots on when he died.

276
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,960
Like all those little things
that just freak me out as a healer.

277
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:33,440
Yeah, they don't care. No,
it's. It's been a really, really

278
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,880
good experience. Just great
attitudes and friendly people and

279
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,120
really, really welcoming. So,
yeah, I do want to shout out. The

280
00:18:40,120 --> 00:18:44,000
guild is run by Mirana and
Ness and the guild's cross faction.

281
00:18:44,470 --> 00:18:50,630
So if you're looking for a
really fun guild where there's some

282
00:18:50,630 --> 00:18:54,910
mutual respect for adults and
working professionals and parents

283
00:18:54,910 --> 00:19:00,390
and pulling aggro, IRL is a
fantastic place to play this game.

284
00:19:00,550 --> 00:19:04,470
Yeah, they're great people.
And so like, Mythics are a stretch

285
00:19:04,470 --> 00:19:08,270
for me. Like, that's not
normal for me. Like, it's just not

286
00:19:08,270 --> 00:19:11,870
my norm. I have folks like,
they're a great place to be because

287
00:19:11,870 --> 00:19:15,790
if you're curious about trying
content, they will slurp you up in

288
00:19:15,790 --> 00:19:19,230
a heartbeat. And it does not
matter like your, your, your level.

289
00:19:19,230 --> 00:19:21,790
You know, like if, if you're
getting a rating, then it's kind

290
00:19:21,790 --> 00:19:23,550
of, that's a kind of a little
bit of difference. Different story

291
00:19:23,550 --> 00:19:25,350
because that's not a carry
group. They're, you know, looking

292
00:19:25,350 --> 00:19:28,230
for solid DPS and all that
stuff. But like with Mythics, like

293
00:19:28,230 --> 00:19:32,430
I, I'm the one who takes the
majority of dirt naps whenever we're

294
00:19:32,430 --> 00:19:35,990
doing Mythics. All the deaths,
pretty much. You could track them

295
00:19:35,990 --> 00:19:39,830
back to my character, my
paladin. Hey. Yeah, that means he

296
00:19:39,830 --> 00:19:40,270
sucks

297
00:19:41,750 --> 00:19:41,948
Hey. Yeah, that means he sucks.

298
00:19:43,430 --> 00:19:45,870
It's a great place to be. It's
a fun place to be. Especially if

299
00:19:45,870 --> 00:19:48,630
again, like, like in the guild
name, you know, if you've got a lot

300
00:19:48,630 --> 00:19:52,550
of aggro in real life, it's a
great place just to kind of chill

301
00:19:52,550 --> 00:19:56,350
out and just kind of, you
know, park and set up shop.

302
00:19:56,350 --> 00:19:59,590
Yeah. And a ton of game
knowledge too with the folks there.

303
00:20:00,230 --> 00:20:03,830
Long history of playing World
of Warcraft, which is. Has made it

304
00:20:03,830 --> 00:20:06,190
really, really nice. Like I'm
I'm learning. I'm still learning

305
00:20:06,190 --> 00:20:12,040
a bunch right when we. When we
run stuff. And I've done. I think

306
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:16,120
I've done three raid nights
with them, just. Just filling in

307
00:20:16,120 --> 00:20:21,680
for the normal group. And the.
The leadership in raids is just super

308
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:26,320
chill and the vibe is. Is
very, very good. So pulling aggro.

309
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,040
Irl, come and join us.

310
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,960
It's true. And just to add on
to that, I fully wiped the entire

311
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,210
raid because I accidentally
walked through a portal that I thought

312
00:20:36,210 --> 00:20:38,810
everyone was walking through
and nobody was, but turns out it

313
00:20:38,810 --> 00:20:41,850
was just me and they were
super chill. So, like, if I could

314
00:20:41,850 --> 00:20:42,330
do that.

315
00:20:43,130 --> 00:20:46,930
I remember that was
dimensions, you know. You know, embarrassing

316
00:20:46,930 --> 00:20:47,290
thing.

317
00:20:47,530 --> 00:20:51,050
I have ever. I felt so
embarrassed. I felt like this tall.

318
00:20:51,050 --> 00:20:54,010
I feel like a gnome's height.
Less. Less tall than a gnome. That's

319
00:20:54,010 --> 00:20:56,370
how I felt after that. And
they were just, you know, they laughed

320
00:20:56,370 --> 00:20:58,090
and they laughed it off. It
was not a big deal. So.

321
00:20:58,330 --> 00:21:01,690
Okay. And as part of the
heroes call board, as we segue on

322
00:21:01,690 --> 00:21:08,000
from. From our guild, I have
been trying to become a student of

323
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,240
the game with my Resto Druid,
especially with, you know, healing

324
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:15,480
some. Some mid keys. I'm
really trying to get as good as I

325
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:19,440
can with it. So I'm doing a
lot of research. And through my research,

326
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:26,160
I have found a gentleman on
YouTube that his videos are so easy

327
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:30,560
to understand. And they are.
They're very, very well thought out

328
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:36,400
and well taught. And so I want
to shout them out this. This person's

329
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:41,840
channel. This is Ragnon Gaming
and he has a series on Mythic plus

330
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,000
healing videos especially for
Resto Druids. He plays Resto Druid.

331
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,200
So if you play Resto Druid and
you want to get better, it's. This

332
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:55,720
series is very, very good for
basically going from the basics to.

333
00:21:55,720 --> 00:22:01,400
To more advanced healing. And
the theory behind Resto Druid healing

334
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,720
has been really, really,
really good. And Ragnon does talk

335
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,240
about the fact that he's an
educator in real life and he enjoys

336
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:11,800
making these tutorials to help
develop players. And I think in all

337
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:16,000
aspects of my own healing, I'm
seeing massive improvements just

338
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:20,960
because of watching his
videos. So another one of the big

339
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,160
things that I really enjoy
that he does, you know, as. As you

340
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:28,110
kind of learn, if you're a
healer, dps, whatever, and you're

341
00:22:28,110 --> 00:22:32,110
learning how to play your
class, once you kind of get the basics

342
00:22:32,110 --> 00:22:38,270
and the theory behind how your
class works, seek out videos where

343
00:22:38,270 --> 00:22:43,310
there's live commentary during
gameplay. And Ragnon does this really,

344
00:22:43,310 --> 00:22:48,150
really well with the Resto
Druid where he can narrate while

345
00:22:48,150 --> 00:22:52,510
he's healing a mythic plus
dungeon. And it's, it's very number

346
00:22:52,510 --> 00:22:57,650
one. It's very impressive and
very difficult to shout cast what

347
00:22:57,650 --> 00:23:01,170
you're doing. Like that takes
some skill. But at the same time,

348
00:23:01,170 --> 00:23:04,290
once you understand, once you
have like a baseline understanding

349
00:23:04,290 --> 00:23:08,050
of what the theory is behind
your, your particular class, whether

350
00:23:08,050 --> 00:23:12,250
it's DPS or healing or tanking
or whatever, following those videos

351
00:23:12,650 --> 00:23:17,730
is really, really, really
supplements your understanding because

352
00:23:17,730 --> 00:23:22,050
now you're seeing the Theory
live. So I would definitely recommend

353
00:23:22,050 --> 00:23:25,070
doing that. Ragnon does it
very, very well for Resto Druid.

354
00:23:25,070 --> 00:23:27,910
So we wanted to shout him out
as, you know, part of our Heroes

355
00:23:27,910 --> 00:23:30,270
call board because, you know,
we love what the community is doing,

356
00:23:30,270 --> 00:23:33,790
that includes content
creators. So find him on YouTube.

357
00:23:33,790 --> 00:23:39,190
He's@YouTube.com Ragnon
Gaming. He's on Twitch, Twitch TV.

358
00:23:39,750 --> 00:23:45,630
Ragnon Gaming. And finally,
just a huge thank you to Ragnon because

359
00:23:45,630 --> 00:23:49,280
you have helped my healing tremendously.

360
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,360
Yeah, it's a really, really
good channel.

361
00:23:51,360 --> 00:23:55,400
It is great channel and, and
I'm, you know, just huge thanks to

362
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,040
him. One more mention that we
want to do on the Heroes board is,

363
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:04,720
is the Warband podcast. Oh
yeah, the Warband happens to be the

364
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:09,400
is. It's kind of my go to show
when I. I'm not going to say kind

365
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,920
of. It is my go to show when,
when I'm listening to podcasts throughout

366
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:18,910
the week. I just, I feel like,
I feel like the guys there, Chicken

367
00:24:18,910 --> 00:24:22,390
and Swaglock, I feel like I
have just like a connection with

368
00:24:22,390 --> 00:24:26,150
the way that they play the
game and their opinions and so it's

369
00:24:26,150 --> 00:24:31,590
really become my go to show.
And coincidentally, Swaglock put

370
00:24:31,590 --> 00:24:36,350
a really nice comment about
our first show on a Twitter post

371
00:24:36,350 --> 00:24:41,230
that we had out about our Week
One show. And so I just, I want to

372
00:24:41,230 --> 00:24:43,750
throw them a mention. Warband
Podcast is excellent. They've been

373
00:24:43,750 --> 00:24:49,140
around. I think they're on 50,
60 episodes now. Solid show, solid

374
00:24:49,140 --> 00:24:53,940
understanding of the game and
you know, guys who are just like

375
00:24:53,940 --> 00:24:59,540
us, they got families and jobs
and all those things. Just like a

376
00:24:59,540 --> 00:25:02,500
lot of the players in the
Warcraft community nowadays has,

377
00:25:03,780 --> 00:25:06,700
they've been playing the game
for quite a while and have a really

378
00:25:06,700 --> 00:25:09,740
good understanding of some of
the deeper mechanics in the game,

379
00:25:09,740 --> 00:25:13,150
which is one of the big
reasons that I listen to. And I just

380
00:25:13,150 --> 00:25:16,070
want to say thanks like you
guys. That was super cool for you

381
00:25:16,070 --> 00:25:20,270
guys to reach out and do that
for us. It meant a lot to us coming

382
00:25:20,270 --> 00:25:24,630
into a big, massive,
intimidating space. Yeah, so thank

383
00:25:24,630 --> 00:25:25,030
you, guys.

384
00:25:25,030 --> 00:25:28,110
Yeah, absolutely. And just to
kind of add to that, it does. It

385
00:25:28,110 --> 00:25:32,030
meant a. Gosh, it meant a lot.
It means a lot when folks take time

386
00:25:32,030 --> 00:25:34,430
out of their day just to reach
out and say thank you, especially

387
00:25:34,430 --> 00:25:36,790
from other creators who are in
the space who are already so busy.

388
00:25:36,790 --> 00:25:39,300
So thank you again, guys, so,
so much. That was awesome.

389
00:25:41,940 --> 00:25:47,620
Breaking news brought to all
of you by the Goblin News Network.

390
00:25:49,860 --> 00:25:52,540
So when we told you we have a
long episode. Well, most of it is

391
00:25:52,540 --> 00:26:00,740
this. This is a. Wow. So the
deep dive and Q and A on midnight,

392
00:26:01,060 --> 00:26:07,310
this happened this past week,
and it was amazing. Just amazing.

393
00:26:07,550 --> 00:26:10,270
But before we get started, I
want to mention something we're going

394
00:26:10,270 --> 00:26:14,070
to cover next week. So we had
a blue post come out from World of

395
00:26:14,070 --> 00:26:18,190
Warcraft, and it's actually an
article over at their website. And

396
00:26:18,190 --> 00:26:22,710
on that article, it's all
about combat. And they're changing

397
00:26:22,710 --> 00:26:25,070
things up for midnight.
They're making things simpler, a

398
00:26:25,070 --> 00:26:27,230
lot more accessible. Looks
like they're going to be getting

399
00:26:27,230 --> 00:26:30,110
rid of a lot of the bloat. So
what we're going to be doing next

400
00:26:30,110 --> 00:26:33,070
episode, on episode three,
we're going to be doing kind of a.

401
00:26:33,510 --> 00:26:37,750
We're going to park on that.
On that topic for quite some time

402
00:26:37,750 --> 00:26:43,030
next. Next episode. And so we
want to pull in all of your thoughts.

403
00:26:43,190 --> 00:26:47,150
So email us. You can go to our
website, or you can always just email

404
00:26:47,150 --> 00:26:51,070
us azerothmorningradiomail.com
Send us your thoughts on the combat

405
00:26:51,070 --> 00:26:54,630
section, and we might put your
name and your thoughts in the show

406
00:26:54,790 --> 00:26:55,870
so you can check that out.

407
00:26:55,870 --> 00:26:58,430
Does that mean less leaves for
my druid?

408
00:26:58,430 --> 00:27:00,060
Probably more leaves. Pretty leaves.

409
00:27:00,540 --> 00:27:01,660
Good. More leaves.

410
00:27:01,660 --> 00:27:02,420
Pretty, pretty leaves.

411
00:27:02,420 --> 00:27:05,100
That's what we want. More
leaves and pretty blossoms.

412
00:27:05,180 --> 00:27:08,140
Hey, speaking of. Speaking of
leaves, make sure you guys, if you

413
00:27:08,140 --> 00:27:10,900
have the mount, it's the mount
that changes with the season, the

414
00:27:10,900 --> 00:27:14,420
giant tree. Well, he's now.
He's now got fall colors on. So if

415
00:27:14,420 --> 00:27:16,180
you. If you have that mount,
rock that mount.

416
00:27:16,180 --> 00:27:19,900
You changed because it's the
best time of the year.

417
00:27:20,380 --> 00:27:22,340
That's right, baby.
Halloween's coming.

418
00:27:22,340 --> 00:27:24,580
That's right. You have your
Halloween Transmog on?

419
00:27:24,580 --> 00:27:25,980
I do. I wear it to bed.

420
00:27:25,980 --> 00:27:28,780
So do I. Perfect sleeves. I
have leaves.

421
00:27:28,780 --> 00:27:30,020
Oh, just leaves. Oh, perfect.

422
00:27:30,020 --> 00:27:35,860
I have a scary. I have a scary
face with a cool witch hunter's hat.

423
00:27:36,020 --> 00:27:39,900
Or is it witch hunter? It's.
It's whatever. The Transmog.

424
00:27:39,900 --> 00:27:40,660
Well, the harvest.

425
00:27:40,660 --> 00:27:44,780
The harvest Transmog that was
in the. On the Trading Post this

426
00:27:44,780 --> 00:27:44,940
week.

427
00:27:44,940 --> 00:27:48,580
Yeah, yeah, man, that traded Goodness.

428
00:27:48,660 --> 00:27:50,540
Yeah, I took pieces of that.

429
00:27:50,540 --> 00:27:51,060
Did you?

430
00:27:51,220 --> 00:27:55,540
And I made a Halloween
Transmog. And it's. It's epic.

431
00:27:57,860 --> 00:27:58,820
It's epic.

432
00:27:59,300 --> 00:28:02,700
I'm happy. Halloween.
Halloween's my season, folks. It

433
00:28:02,700 --> 00:28:04,340
is definitely my season.

434
00:28:04,500 --> 00:28:07,980
Yeah, I mean, it's kind of
nice, too, because. And we will jump

435
00:28:07,980 --> 00:28:10,340
in the news here in a second,
I promise. But it's kind of nice

436
00:28:10,340 --> 00:28:13,740
because we have Brew Fest,
which I was finally able to kind

437
00:28:13,740 --> 00:28:16,460
of do this this week because
last week, and I know we kind of

438
00:28:16,460 --> 00:28:20,880
made little bit. A little bit.
Made some jokes about it last episode,

439
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:24,360
but, you know, like, that was.
It was really, really difficult to

440
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,880
take in Brew Fest on the
first. First week because of all

441
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,240
the. The lag and the other
things that were kind of going on,

442
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,200
and there's still some stuff
that's still glitched. However, I

443
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,400
was actually able to jump into
Brewfest, and so that's been a nice,

444
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:41,280
like, thing to, like, tide me
over until the Halloween. I know.

445
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,430
Hallow's End or Hollow. This
Hollow's in, right? Isn't that the

446
00:28:44,430 --> 00:28:48,270
exact verbiage? So, yeah,
okay, yeah. Look forward to hearing

447
00:28:48,270 --> 00:28:51,510
the Headless Horseman
screaming at you when you're in Stormwind

448
00:28:51,590 --> 00:28:53,590
24. 7. So you can look forward
to that.

449
00:28:53,990 --> 00:28:55,670
Did you get your mount yet for Brewfest?

450
00:28:56,070 --> 00:28:59,270
Dude, I got the kodo. I got
the Brew Fest Cotto, which was cool.

451
00:28:59,590 --> 00:29:03,070
And I had that guy on Farm or
that event on Farm yesterday. Just

452
00:29:03,070 --> 00:29:07,150
trying to get more transmog
and whatnot and. But I still haven't

453
00:29:07,150 --> 00:29:11,620
gotten the new. The new mount.
The barrel with the propellers. Yeah,

454
00:29:11,620 --> 00:29:12,020
yeah.

455
00:29:12,020 --> 00:29:14,380
The. The fastest dungeon known
to man.

456
00:29:15,020 --> 00:29:15,500
Yeah.

457
00:29:16,140 --> 00:29:17,660
It's literally 30 seconds.

458
00:29:17,740 --> 00:29:21,420
You throw that guy an insult,
you fight, and you're out. Yeah,

459
00:29:21,420 --> 00:29:22,100
it's awesome.

460
00:29:22,100 --> 00:29:25,580
Yeah. Like, I don't have to
heal anybody in there. I just, like.

461
00:29:26,380 --> 00:29:29,940
I basically just, like, put my
ground kit down and that's. That's

462
00:29:29,940 --> 00:29:34,340
it. Then I just dps. There's
nothing to that fight. But if you

463
00:29:34,340 --> 00:29:37,590
haven't done that, folks, you
can queue right up for it in Group

464
00:29:37,590 --> 00:29:41,230
Finder, and it's. It literally
will take you 30 seconds for a chance

465
00:29:41,230 --> 00:29:44,910
at the mount. So if you
haven't done it, you have. Well,

466
00:29:44,910 --> 00:29:48,310
when this episode comes out,
you have two more days. So do it.

467
00:29:48,550 --> 00:29:49,110
Do it.

468
00:29:49,430 --> 00:29:54,310
It's awesome. It's worth it.
So anyway, the deep dive on midnight

469
00:29:54,470 --> 00:30:00,710
now, folks, this is truly
massive. And for us to go through

470
00:30:00,710 --> 00:30:03,390
both of these things ad
nauseam would literally make you

471
00:30:03,390 --> 00:30:05,380
nauseous and probably fall.
Fall asleep. So what we're going

472
00:30:05,380 --> 00:30:09,340
to do is we're going to post
our highlight, our highlights of

473
00:30:09,340 --> 00:30:11,420
both of these things. It's
kind of like little cheat sheets

474
00:30:11,420 --> 00:30:15,500
over on the episode page
over@azerothmorningradio.com and

475
00:30:15,500 --> 00:30:17,820
you can check it out there.
But what we're going to do is kind

476
00:30:17,820 --> 00:30:20,179
of pick through it some of the
things that really stood out to us.

477
00:30:20,179 --> 00:30:23,180
Some things that, you know,
that we really liked. I mean the

478
00:30:23,180 --> 00:30:27,220
video was amazing. Dude, it
was 30 minutes of that deep dive

479
00:30:27,220 --> 00:30:31,130
just. And I think they needed
to do this too because a lot of people

480
00:30:31,130 --> 00:30:36,170
walked away from Gamescom, me,
myself included, confused as to what's

481
00:30:36,170 --> 00:30:39,610
actually in the expansion
because I know there was difficulty

482
00:30:39,610 --> 00:30:45,450
with getting the message out
and so it was. I just felt like I

483
00:30:46,090 --> 00:30:50,250
have not been in the know from
Gamescom on like and I'm just kind

484
00:30:50,250 --> 00:30:52,410
of taking these bits and
pieces. But this 30 minute video,

485
00:30:52,410 --> 00:30:55,770
dude, was amazing. It went
through everything.

486
00:30:56,210 --> 00:30:59,290
Yeah. And I actually got to,
actually got to sit. I just kind

487
00:30:59,290 --> 00:31:02,970
of picked a corner at work,
sat down. I got to watch the entire

488
00:31:02,970 --> 00:31:09,170
thing, which was really cool.
I think the biggest thing that has

489
00:31:09,170 --> 00:31:13,370
always impressed me with
Blizzard is their production value

490
00:31:13,370 --> 00:31:16,330
that they, that they put into
the stuff. And like when we talk

491
00:31:16,330 --> 00:31:20,690
about the Q and A here in a
few minutes, you can tell that like

492
00:31:20,690 --> 00:31:24,250
some of the stuff is, it's a
little scripted and they've gotten

493
00:31:24,250 --> 00:31:29,080
really, really good at
answering questions very like diplomatically.

494
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:29,880
Oh yeah.

495
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:34,160
Because they have such a huge
audience to, to cater to. But the

496
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,880
one thing that I've always
enjoyed was these feature videos

497
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:42,960
like this one. And it was, it
was very feature rich and like Jibs

498
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:47,120
was saying it was half an hour
of all the things that are coming

499
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:52,090
to us in midnight. And I think
I'm, I'm just going to reach out

500
00:31:52,090 --> 00:31:57,330
there and say, I think one of
the biggest things that I was excited

501
00:31:57,330 --> 00:32:00,930
about. Now it does sound like
midnight is going to be, you know,

502
00:32:00,930 --> 00:32:03,810
we're going to be in, in an
area that is definitely a little

503
00:32:03,810 --> 00:32:09,370
more Horde heavy and we play
alliance, so. But it's nice to see

504
00:32:09,370 --> 00:32:13,290
the Horde getting some love
with the things that we were seeing

505
00:32:13,290 --> 00:32:19,690
there and you know, the redo
of the story arcs, a lot of the locations,

506
00:32:20,090 --> 00:32:25,890
you know, especially being in
Quel'Danas. You got the Sunwell Silver

507
00:32:25,890 --> 00:32:29,090
Moon Cities has been redone
and there's, you know, they're gonna,

508
00:32:29,090 --> 00:32:33,010
they're gonna put the alliance
like over in this little corner which

509
00:32:33,010 --> 00:32:37,730
is fine. Like it makes sense,
right. Because you know, we're going

510
00:32:37,730 --> 00:32:43,660
at this threat, you know, this
threat with Zalotose. We're going

511
00:32:43,660 --> 00:32:46,780
at the can. Can we say that?
Are we able to say, I mean.

512
00:32:46,780 --> 00:32:48,420
Like, I don't know. Who isn't
at this point?

513
00:32:48,420 --> 00:32:53,380
Yeah, I think she has an only
f*n page with just her just feet

514
00:32:53,380 --> 00:32:53,780
pics.

515
00:32:54,020 --> 00:32:55,140
Hey, what'd he say?

516
00:32:57,780 --> 00:32:59,660
Maybe ask someone at
Goldshire. Maybe they would know

517
00:32:59,660 --> 00:33:01,460
about that one. I don't. I
don't know.

518
00:33:02,820 --> 00:33:03,860
There we go with Goldshire.

519
00:33:05,860 --> 00:33:09,850
I know. It's like. It's like
some special roped off section in.

520
00:33:10,410 --> 00:33:16,570
In the basement of Gold Tavern
now. Yep. Just pictures of her toes.

521
00:33:16,570 --> 00:33:18,090
And you have to pay an extra special.

522
00:33:18,330 --> 00:33:19,290
Oh my gosh.

523
00:33:19,290 --> 00:33:24,370
Fee to get in there if that's
what you're into. It's fine. It's

524
00:33:24,370 --> 00:33:26,010
totally fine. If you're into feet.

525
00:33:27,730 --> 00:33:27,970
youbringthisbackaroundyou.Goahead.

526
00:33:32,250 --> 00:33:34,650
This is a family friendly
show, everybody.

527
00:33:36,580 --> 00:33:37,700
You had one job.

528
00:33:39,860 --> 00:33:44,740
No, but I, I am excited about
seeing the. The new revitalized areas.

529
00:33:45,220 --> 00:33:48,460
And then I think one of the
biggest things that stood out for

530
00:33:48,460 --> 00:33:52,340
me is the fact that they
understand that there's going to

531
00:33:52,340 --> 00:33:57,060
be a little bit of separation
between, you know, Horde and Alliance

532
00:33:57,060 --> 00:34:00,620
characters there. But what was
like one of the coolest things that

533
00:34:00,620 --> 00:34:04,110
they're doing to bring
everybody together? Jims.

534
00:34:04,110 --> 00:34:06,190
They're putting there's.

535
00:34:06,190 --> 00:34:07,950
I mean, the Tavern.

536
00:34:08,030 --> 00:34:10,350
The Tavern. Okay. I didn't
know where you were taking it. I

537
00:34:10,350 --> 00:34:12,990
thought, I'm like, they're
giving us a section of the city.

538
00:34:12,990 --> 00:34:15,390
But you already said that.
Yes. So the Argentina, I believe

539
00:34:15,390 --> 00:34:16,510
is how you say that. Correct?

540
00:34:16,670 --> 00:34:23,190
Yes, the Argentina, which is a
massive tavern with just all the

541
00:34:23,190 --> 00:34:27,670
feels of a World of Warcraft
tavern. And I don't know if you caught

542
00:34:27,670 --> 00:34:30,790
any of the. Did you catch any
of the music or key into the. I know

543
00:34:30,790 --> 00:34:35,030
you did. You're an audiophile,
so I know how you are. But if, If

544
00:34:35,030 --> 00:34:39,110
I can just picture in just
quick tangent side story, like one

545
00:34:39,110 --> 00:34:44,430
of my favorite soundtracks, I.
I dare say my favorite soundtrack

546
00:34:44,990 --> 00:34:49,870
in all of World of Warcraft is
the Taverns of Azeroth.

547
00:34:49,870 --> 00:34:50,590
Oh, yeah.

548
00:34:50,750 --> 00:34:55,710
It's phenomenal. If you've
never heard it and you're on Spotify

549
00:34:55,710 --> 00:35:00,280
or whatever music medium you
on for digital music, look up the

550
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:04,960
Taverns of Azeroth and listen
to it. It is a phenomenal soundtrack

551
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:09,320
of all the Taverns of Azeroth
or, you know, at least a vast majority

552
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:14,640
of them. And I got excited
because having this communal area

553
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,200
for both the Horde and the
alliance that they're adding into

554
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,480
it in the Arcantina. You know,
there's going to be new music.

555
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,000
Oh, yeah, yeah.

556
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:25,560
So new tavern music. I got
super excited about that. I know

557
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,990
it's nerdy. I, I don't care. I
embrace it. It is what it is. But

558
00:35:30,390 --> 00:35:34,670
so little things like this, in
seeing all the revital revitalizations

559
00:35:34,670 --> 00:35:37,710
that they're, that they're
doing to old zones that we've been

560
00:35:37,710 --> 00:35:42,269
in, I'm just so excited about.
And that's probably one of the biggest

561
00:35:42,269 --> 00:35:45,990
things that, that stood out
for me with this reveal.

562
00:35:45,990 --> 00:35:49,190
Yeah, I love it because it's
just like this, the vibe of the place,

563
00:35:49,190 --> 00:35:52,380
at least from what we've been
able to see, is just like this warm,

564
00:35:52,380 --> 00:35:56,900
just chill vibe tavern, you
know, that's a hub for quests, for

565
00:35:56,900 --> 00:35:59,740
story hooks and for
socializing. So I can tell you right

566
00:35:59,740 --> 00:36:03,060
now without a shadow of a
doubt, I will not only be hanging

567
00:36:03,060 --> 00:36:05,380
out in there, but I'll
absolutely be RPing in there because

568
00:36:05,380 --> 00:36:08,700
there's going to be role
players everywhere. Everywhere. It's

569
00:36:08,700 --> 00:36:11,380
going to be crazy. It's going
to be a good time. I see that smirk.

570
00:36:11,380 --> 00:36:13,540
I know where you're going
already. It's the kind of tavern

571
00:36:13,540 --> 00:36:15,180
you want to be in. And.

572
00:36:17,890 --> 00:36:20,690
I, I always know when you're
doing the rps.

573
00:36:21,730 --> 00:36:23,250
I know because I don't get in Discord.

574
00:36:23,570 --> 00:36:27,170
He doesn't get in Discord. And
it will have your character's name

575
00:36:27,250 --> 00:36:31,490
and Stormwind City next to it.
And I'm like that, that has a friend

576
00:36:31,490 --> 00:36:37,090
I know to just leave it alone.
Don't. Don't send you text messages.

577
00:36:37,090 --> 00:36:37,730
Don't call.

578
00:36:37,890 --> 00:36:39,410
Text me. You can call me.

579
00:36:39,410 --> 00:36:40,690
He's doing the RPs.

580
00:36:44,300 --> 00:36:45,100
Is that a thing?

581
00:36:45,900 --> 00:36:51,900
I just, I jest. But honestly,
friends, if you have not role played

582
00:36:52,140 --> 00:36:56,180
in this game, you should try
it. There's a lot there. It's. It's

583
00:36:56,180 --> 00:37:00,220
a whole new world. It's a
whole new dimension to your game.

584
00:37:00,780 --> 00:37:04,540
And it's, I mean, especially
on our server, like we're on the

585
00:37:04,540 --> 00:37:10,220
RP server, it is, it's vast.
Oh, it's very, it's very, very popular.

586
00:37:10,500 --> 00:37:13,500
It's a good time anyway.
Honestly, what any game that you

587
00:37:13,500 --> 00:37:16,100
play, any ip, you know, like
the moment that you can like start

588
00:37:16,100 --> 00:37:19,020
to develop your character out,
you're gonna find what it does to

589
00:37:19,020 --> 00:37:22,140
you, incidentally and
passively is that it's going to connect

590
00:37:22,140 --> 00:37:25,700
you more to the world you're
in. So like it is just a, just developed

591
00:37:25,700 --> 00:37:30,740
a much more deeper love and
care for the world. The world lore.

592
00:37:30,980 --> 00:37:33,620
And you know, you just really
kind of get more invested in your

593
00:37:33,620 --> 00:37:35,540
character. So. Yeah, it's a
good time. You should check it out.

594
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,560
But anyway, so the Tavern's
there. It's going to be awesome.

595
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,920
It looks beautiful. And they
listed so many more things as well,

596
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:46,280
you know, like you've got
delve. So like, we know one delve

597
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:50,360
at least is outdoors, which is
looked awesome. You know, you've

598
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,520
got the. And actually I think
it's called the Parhelion Plaza.

599
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:57,280
It's the defense of the
Sunwell, I think is. Is that delve,

600
00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:58,720
which looks really, really cool.

601
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,640
Right. And the. And the
removal. But of some of the. Of some

602
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:05,200
of the things in delves now
that kind of piss people off.

603
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:05,920
Yeah.

604
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:11,520
You know, like having to. You,
you know that candle, you have to

605
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:12,936
go freaking find a damn
candle. And like you have a bunch

606
00:38:12,936 --> 00:38:13,040
of them in your bag and you
gotta throw them and otherwise you

607
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:13,120
start taking damage. Now
granted, the damage is dumb. It's

608
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:13,232
like. It's not. It's not a lot
of damage, but it's still a pain

609
00:38:13,232 --> 00:38:13,312
in the butt mechanic that we
have to get through. Andthen. And

610
00:38:06,735 --> 00:38:10,165
the other ones where you have
to purify the air and there's a whole

611
00:38:10,165 --> 00:38:12,860
bunch of those little things
and. And no underwater delves, which

612
00:38:12,860 --> 00:38:13,350
is great.

613
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,120
Man, I would love to talk
underwater sometime.

614
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:40,520
You want to talk underwater?

615
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:41,040
We should.

616
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:42,600
Folks won't be able to hear underwater.

617
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:43,360
Oh, that's true.

618
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,000
That is a murloc.

619
00:38:50,080 --> 00:39:00,690
Underwater. What would it be
like? Well, oh, man, you know, I

620
00:39:01,010 --> 00:39:03,810
just. Real quick tangent. I
would love to see more underwater

621
00:39:03,810 --> 00:39:07,210
content in Azeroth because
when you and I were in Guild Wars

622
00:39:07,210 --> 00:39:10,450
2 and we were creating over
there, their underwater content is,

623
00:39:10,450 --> 00:39:15,290
bar none, the pinnacle of
underwater content. They have set

624
00:39:15,290 --> 00:39:18,570
up a system in such a way that
it's exceptional. It's amazing. And

625
00:39:18,570 --> 00:39:22,490
I know if they can do it, I
know the king of all King MMOs, World

626
00:39:22,490 --> 00:39:25,690
of Warcraft, can conquer it.
So I would love to see them really

627
00:39:25,690 --> 00:39:29,370
give a solid go to underwater
content. So when I saw no underwater

628
00:39:29,370 --> 00:39:32,530
delves, I'm like, oh, if we
ever, ever.

629
00:39:32,530 --> 00:39:36,650
Had a chance of a developer
from Blizzard listening to our show,

630
00:39:36,650 --> 00:39:39,450
they just turned it off. You
just killed it.

631
00:39:39,450 --> 00:39:41,050
Why underwater content?

632
00:39:41,050 --> 00:39:45,210
What's wrong with underwater
content? What a massive undertaking

633
00:39:45,210 --> 00:39:48,190
that that would be for them to
turn it into a system like Kill Force

634
00:39:48,900 --> 00:39:53,060
system. They're like, nope,
we're done. These guys suck.

635
00:39:53,060 --> 00:39:58,260
What's the name of the show
yeah, blacklist. They're on the blacklist.

636
00:39:59,060 --> 00:40:02,060
No, but I do agree that the
underwater content in Guild Wars

637
00:40:02,060 --> 00:40:04,980
2 is, is the pinnacle of
underwater content. I mean they,

638
00:40:04,980 --> 00:40:08,980
they basically as soon as your
character goes under, the surface

639
00:40:08,980 --> 00:40:13,660
of the water brings you a
whole new level of skills. Like you

640
00:40:13,660 --> 00:40:14,610
have a whole new bar.

641
00:40:14,690 --> 00:40:15,250
Oh yeah.

642
00:40:15,250 --> 00:40:19,010
Different weapons, you know,
things you got like little masks

643
00:40:19,010 --> 00:40:21,370
so you can breathe with. So
you can breathe underwater and stuff.

644
00:40:21,370 --> 00:40:26,450
It's very, very good. But
World of Warcraft has very good,

645
00:40:26,930 --> 00:40:30,369
very, very good underwater
content. There's entire zones that

646
00:40:30,369 --> 00:40:31,250
are underwater.

647
00:40:31,250 --> 00:40:31,890
Oh yeah.

648
00:40:31,890 --> 00:40:35,690
Over the years that, that
there's been so. And, and it is nice

649
00:40:35,690 --> 00:40:39,930
in, in any game, any MMO that
you're playing, it is very nice to

650
00:40:39,930 --> 00:40:45,220
know that the world continues
underwater. You're not like, remember

651
00:40:45,220 --> 00:40:46,340
Swotor, dude, I.

652
00:40:46,340 --> 00:40:48,620
Was going there to the ankle
deep. Yep.

653
00:40:48,620 --> 00:40:52,140
Ankle deep water everywhere
you go. You can't go underwater.

654
00:40:52,140 --> 00:40:55,380
There's nothing going on
underwater. And it's like, dude,

655
00:40:55,540 --> 00:40:59,300
like flesh out your world.
Yeah. Come on.

656
00:40:59,540 --> 00:41:00,100
Yeah.

657
00:41:00,180 --> 00:41:04,180
So it is very refreshing in
games like World of Warcraft. From

658
00:41:04,180 --> 00:41:08,450
the start, friends from 2004,
World of Warcraft has had really

659
00:41:08,450 --> 00:41:12,450
good underwater content. So
maybe we'll talk about another show.

660
00:41:12,450 --> 00:41:15,930
But just know there will be no
more underwater delves in Midnight.

661
00:41:15,930 --> 00:41:19,370
You remember new world where
you, you couldn't swim for like the

662
00:41:19,370 --> 00:41:22,650
better part of almost two
years and you walked underwater like

663
00:41:22,650 --> 00:41:23,330
lead feet.

664
00:41:24,210 --> 00:41:26,970
Yeah. It was like you had
rocks in your pockets and you go

665
00:41:26,970 --> 00:41:32,610
underwater and you would die.
You try and cross a river and you

666
00:41:32,610 --> 00:41:33,490
would die.

667
00:41:33,570 --> 00:41:34,050
Yeah.

668
00:41:34,350 --> 00:41:37,710
Because you were walking
under. They finally have like a mad

669
00:41:38,590 --> 00:41:42,830
swimming system in that game.
But yeah, nothing underwater. Underwater

670
00:41:42,830 --> 00:41:46,310
content is amazing. It is a
topic for another show.

671
00:41:46,310 --> 00:41:50,429
Oh, absolutely. And so again,
Windrunner Spire, we've also got

672
00:41:50,429 --> 00:41:54,150
other dungeons like Magister's
Terrace, Murder Row, which looks,

673
00:41:54,150 --> 00:41:57,150
looks and sounds amazing.
Which by the way, Murder Row is where

674
00:41:57,470 --> 00:42:00,630
the price system I believe is
based out of. And so that's going

675
00:42:00,630 --> 00:42:03,110
to be a good time as well.
They're going to be having of course,

676
00:42:03,110 --> 00:42:08,110
three different raids. And the
new spec for Demon Hunters really

677
00:42:08,110 --> 00:42:11,110
got some love. The Devour
Demon Hunter. So that mid range dps,

678
00:42:11,910 --> 00:42:17,430
I like when they take these
odd chances like this, you know,

679
00:42:17,430 --> 00:42:20,590
like when they came out with
the Evoker, I remember we were playing

680
00:42:20,590 --> 00:42:23,630
Dragonflight at the time and
of course we were. I don't know where

681
00:42:23,630 --> 00:42:26,400
we were at creating at that
point, but we. One thing that we

682
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:29,720
really enjoyed was we were
enjoying Dragonflight. And so when

683
00:42:29,720 --> 00:42:32,200
the Evoker came Out in that
support class I never really got

684
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:36,200
into the aesthetic of Evokers
being a dracthyr so I never played

685
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:39,200
it. But I always really
appreciated the fact that they added

686
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:43,400
a support class to the game.
And so even now. Fast forward to

687
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,640
where we're at now, getting
ready for midnight in 2026. They've

688
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:51,520
got a mid range DPS spec which
just sounds really unique.

689
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:56,800
Pop quiz hotshot. Okay, this
is gonna be further reason for Blizzard

690
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:57,440
to hate us.

691
00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:58,280
Oh, all right.

692
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:02,280
If you can pick one. I'm not
trying to take anything away from

693
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:02,520
you.

694
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:04,400
I know what you're gonna ask and.

695
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:07,920
You know well I know you well
and it's good show content. So shut

696
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:13,800
up and let it happen. I'm not
taking anything away from the Devour

697
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:17,400
Demon Hunters because I think
it fits. I think they did a really

698
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:23,650
nice job making Void Specked
Demon Hunter. It makes sense and

699
00:43:23,650 --> 00:43:27,730
they alluded to it in. In the
War within and I loved how they alluded

700
00:43:27,730 --> 00:43:31,210
to it and I was like what's.
Why is that quest line there all

701
00:43:31,210 --> 00:43:35,290
of a sudden? We're getting
devoured Demon Hunters. But if you

702
00:43:35,290 --> 00:43:41,090
had your pick of a new class,
Spectres, you don't have to say the

703
00:43:41,090 --> 00:43:44,920
Spectres. Just give me your
number one pick for a new new class

704
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:46,080
in World of Warcraft.

705
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,640
I'm going to give you two and
this will be the two. I will always

706
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:52,440
say as long as this show is
running the two. I will always say

707
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,720
number one, a proper
necromancer that's not fell based

708
00:43:56,280 --> 00:44:00,279
something that. Because they
have necromancers in the. Was it

709
00:44:00,279 --> 00:44:04,440
the reach something Reach the
Forget the name the starter zone.

710
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,280
You know like when you make
your first make your character. And

711
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:09,760
of course they're also in
other places in the lore as well

712
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:13,360
and they're referenced really.
And so you know really playing on

713
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:16,440
the aspect of like a basically
a different type of mage, you know.

714
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:20,240
So having a proper Necromancer
class. And then number two, this

715
00:44:20,240 --> 00:44:22,400
is the one you thought I was
going to go to first because you

716
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:27,560
know me. However, an Engineer
class, aka Tinkerer, the Engineer

717
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:31,960
class in Guild Wars 2 with the
turrets is the best engineer class

718
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:37,040
of all time. And again I have
no doubt that they would be able

719
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:39,880
to do something amazing like
that when you've got basically in

720
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:43,200
short you put down turrets,
different types of turrets do different

721
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:47,000
things and it is so much fun
and I have no doubt they could put

722
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:51,280
such a wonderful engineer, you
know, spin on it for World of Warcraft.

723
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:54,320
So those are my two always
Going to be my two. I will say them

724
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:55,280
till they're both here.

725
00:44:55,280 --> 00:45:00,320
Dude. Tinker with like, it's
like a mid range DPS with a blunderbuss.

726
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:00,960
Yes.

727
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:04,080
Or a shotgun. Just a big old
smoke pole.

728
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:04,720
Oh, dude.

729
00:45:04,720 --> 00:45:05,120
Yeah.

730
00:45:05,370 --> 00:45:06,330
Yeah, buddy.

731
00:45:06,890 --> 00:45:07,770
So, so good.

732
00:45:07,770 --> 00:45:11,730
And it's so, it's so ready for
it to like just the lore. I mean

733
00:45:11,730 --> 00:45:14,010
the world's ready. I mean you
already got the engineer profession,

734
00:45:14,010 --> 00:45:17,810
you've got the gnomes and the.
You've got the two best races with

735
00:45:17,810 --> 00:45:20,490
the two best pieces of lore
for that. The goblins and the gnomes

736
00:45:20,970 --> 00:45:24,850
doing their thing. And so.
Yeah, that'd be amazing. What about

737
00:45:24,850 --> 00:45:25,090
you?

738
00:45:25,090 --> 00:45:26,170
For me it'd be the Bard.

739
00:45:26,170 --> 00:45:28,210
The Bard. I was hoping you'd
go there.

740
00:45:28,210 --> 00:45:32,410
Yeah, yeah, Bard 100%. I think
it'd just be such a, such a cool

741
00:45:32,410 --> 00:45:36,570
class. But again, take nothing
away from Devour Demon Hunters because

742
00:45:36,570 --> 00:45:40,970
that is going to add a lot of
fun and depth for folks who, who

743
00:45:40,970 --> 00:45:44,530
enjoy Demon Hunters. And you
know what's funny is I don't have

744
00:45:44,530 --> 00:45:47,970
many other classes that I want
to play, but the Demon Hunter always

745
00:45:47,970 --> 00:45:52,730
looks interesting to me. Like
does I should just roll a demon?

746
00:45:52,730 --> 00:45:55,970
If you do it, tell me and I'll
do it with you. Because I think they're

747
00:45:55,970 --> 00:45:59,490
also going to be including,
including the Void Elves as well

748
00:45:59,490 --> 00:46:06,010
for this. So the Voids and
they basically the Devour Demon Hunters,

749
00:46:06,010 --> 00:46:09,250
they rip void fragments to
fuel devastating abilities. So void

750
00:46:09,250 --> 00:46:14,010
scythe, void ray reap,
collapsing star. I'm not gonna lie,

751
00:46:14,010 --> 00:46:18,650
a lot of that reminds me of
the Necro from Eso, but new animations,

752
00:46:18,650 --> 00:46:21,690
mechanics and void infused
play style. Yeah, it looks fun. Like

753
00:46:21,690 --> 00:46:26,170
it looks fun. And everyone in
the. I forget where I read it. Somewhere

754
00:46:26,170 --> 00:46:28,450
in the community said that.
Well, you know, since it's a new

755
00:46:28,450 --> 00:46:31,850
thing, it's going to be op.
And they're probably not wrong because

756
00:46:32,410 --> 00:46:34,570
typically when new classes
come out, they're. They're a little

757
00:46:34,570 --> 00:46:37,850
stronger. But it does look
fun. It does.

758
00:46:38,010 --> 00:46:41,770
Yeah, it does look fun. And I
mean even if it is op, like if we're

759
00:46:41,770 --> 00:46:45,850
thinking for like, for PvP and
stuff, I already freaking take a

760
00:46:45,850 --> 00:46:49,810
face full of Demon Hunter all
the freaking time. As a healer, it's

761
00:46:49,810 --> 00:46:53,480
like I'm doing my thing and
all of a sudden I just have all this

762
00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:57,600
freaking fell energy being
shoved down my throat and was like,

763
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:00,240
can't breathe, can't move.

764
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:01,120
Yeah.

765
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:05,040
Yeah, I'm. I am really looking
forward to, to seeing these changes

766
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:08,920
and I know we went through it
kind of quick, but there is so much

767
00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,680
there, folks. Please make sure
to check out our notes.

768
00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,960
We even talk about housing.
And that was amazing to see, of course,

769
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,800
in this. This reveal. But
yeah, yeah.

770
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:18,680
And we got a date.

771
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:20,240
Oh, we do. Yeah. You want to
go ahead?

772
00:47:20,240 --> 00:47:22,840
Is December 2nd or is 2nd right?

773
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:26,200
That's the word I'm hearing.
They said early December was what

774
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:29,720
I. What they said on the
video. As far as an official dates,

775
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:33,880
I've heard December 2nd being
thrown around, but I can't confirm

776
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,800
anywhere that. That that's the
actual thing yet.

777
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:41,000
Checking now. December 2nd, I
was right.

778
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:42,320
Yeah, that's all. There we go.

779
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:48,120
Yep. Starting Dec. 2 for
players who pre purchase the upcoming

780
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:49,240
expansion midnight.

781
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:51,360
That's gonna be amazing. Yeah.

782
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:56,360
My gosh. It's like content
after content after content.

783
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:57,240
I know.

784
00:47:57,720 --> 00:48:01,000
For this thing, we have a busy
few months.

785
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:01,560
I know.

786
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:02,320
Seriously.

787
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,600
I know. It's almost like you
don't know as a creator, you don't

788
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,320
know what to do with yourself.
You know, like you're not having

789
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:07,400
to scavenge for anything.

790
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:08,360
It's just like.

791
00:48:10,930 --> 00:48:13,610
Content buffet. We'll take a
little bit of that, took a side of

792
00:48:13,610 --> 00:48:15,810
this, and boom, we got an episode.

793
00:48:16,290 --> 00:48:20,610
This is definitely a content
buffet, as you'll probably see with

794
00:48:20,610 --> 00:48:23,890
the amount of stuff that we're
going to cover here. But I mean,

795
00:48:23,890 --> 00:48:28,010
that is one thing for a
content creator that you never want

796
00:48:28,010 --> 00:48:32,610
to have to search for is news
or things that have happened in the

797
00:48:32,610 --> 00:48:38,630
past week. There is no, never.
Not something going on at Blizzard

798
00:48:38,630 --> 00:48:40,990
where they're like, oh, by the
way, here's this and here's this.

799
00:48:40,990 --> 00:48:43,870
And hey, we talked to these
developers this week and this is

800
00:48:43,870 --> 00:48:46,030
what they had to say. It's
like there's always something going

801
00:48:46,030 --> 00:48:53,110
on and that shows game health.
This game is probably the healthiest

802
00:48:53,110 --> 00:48:57,910
it's ever been or it has been
in a long, long time. Like, there

803
00:48:57,910 --> 00:49:00,310
are tons of people playing
this game right now because it's

804
00:49:00,310 --> 00:49:03,700
just this constant release
schedule that they're sticking to

805
00:49:03,700 --> 00:49:07,940
very well. Is really lending
to players coming back.

806
00:49:08,180 --> 00:49:12,300
Oh, yeah, absolutely. I mean,
you have. You have the. I mean, you

807
00:49:12,300 --> 00:49:15,180
said it all, you know, like so
much content. You have the housing

808
00:49:15,180 --> 00:49:19,420
update, which is just. That's
gonna bring so many people to try

809
00:49:19,420 --> 00:49:25,420
the game alone. Just having
housing in your mmo, it's such a

810
00:49:25,420 --> 00:49:31,950
big, big deal. It's huge in
eso. It's huge. And oh, gosh, was.

811
00:49:32,030 --> 00:49:34,590
I think Lord of the Rings
online also has it, but I swotor

812
00:49:34,590 --> 00:49:38,910
does, you know, like, it's
just amazing what it does for. For

813
00:49:38,910 --> 00:49:42,990
an IP Especially adding new
players. So there's no doubt that

814
00:49:42,990 --> 00:49:46,030
people who haven't played in
quite some time are coming back for

815
00:49:46,030 --> 00:49:46,750
housing.

816
00:49:46,910 --> 00:49:49,550
I'm gonna, I'm gonna have to
kick you in the nuts on the swtor

817
00:49:49,550 --> 00:49:49,870
thing.

818
00:49:49,870 --> 00:49:51,150
Why? You don't like it?

819
00:49:51,310 --> 00:49:55,520
Oh, no, dude. Well, you know
me, I'm. I have an entire arm tattooed.

820
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,840
Star Wars. So, you know, I'm a
Star wars fan. But that like their

821
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:01,800
release cadence is the suck.

822
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:03,160
Oh, well, no, I agree.

823
00:50:03,240 --> 00:50:03,920
Swotor.

824
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:07,520
I agree it's terrible. I agree
it's. And, but I also, I mean, that's

825
00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:09,960
kind of like a whole nother
conversation, but I think it's because

826
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:14,200
it's now run. It's kind of
like getting drip feed content from

827
00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:15,880
just the new developers that
took it over.

828
00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:19,190
But yeah, that's the problem
with you and I, is it? If we, we

829
00:50:19,190 --> 00:50:22,710
can tangent out really easy,
folks. So you will see, it'll, it'll

830
00:50:22,710 --> 00:50:26,510
look a bit like. At times,
it'll look a bit like a pinball machine

831
00:50:27,470 --> 00:50:31,270
where the ball looks like it
wants to waste your quarter. But

832
00:50:31,270 --> 00:50:37,630
we just kind of, we tap it
right back onto the playing field

833
00:50:37,630 --> 00:50:40,350
and we'll, we will eventually
get back to where we're, where we're

834
00:50:40,350 --> 00:50:41,830
going. We can tangent out
pretty easy.

835
00:50:41,830 --> 00:50:42,350
True.

836
00:50:42,430 --> 00:50:46,590
All right, friends. So one of
the other features of the development

837
00:50:46,670 --> 00:50:50,700
update that we got this week,
which was really, really good, I

838
00:50:50,700 --> 00:50:53,700
kind of, I sat down and put my
thinking cap on, took a bunch of

839
00:50:53,700 --> 00:51:00,260
notes and really was able to
get invested in the Q A. I thought

840
00:51:00,260 --> 00:51:04,180
the Q A is, is excellent. I
really do enjoy listening to these

841
00:51:04,180 --> 00:51:08,740
and you know, watching these Q
and A's that they have. And you know,

842
00:51:08,740 --> 00:51:11,380
I, I feel like sometimes when
I'm watching these, it's not just

843
00:51:11,380 --> 00:51:17,240
getting the information about
what's coming out. It is, it's a

844
00:51:17,240 --> 00:51:22,240
craft for them. And you know,
just as a, as a small sidebar, it

845
00:51:22,240 --> 00:51:29,760
is impressive to watch such a
huge game and a huge developer have

846
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,320
the poise that they have when
they're answering some of these questions.

847
00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:35,880
Because some of the, some,
even some of the questions that they

848
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:40,360
chose were questions that they
probably knew they couldn't answer,

849
00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:44,900
but they could use it as a
vehicle to move towards some of the

850
00:51:44,900 --> 00:51:48,180
features that are coming out
for, for midnight. And it's, it's

851
00:51:48,180 --> 00:51:50,860
actually very impressive. To
some, it might seem like, oh well,

852
00:51:50,860 --> 00:51:54,060
they were deflecting. It's.
No, these are very well trained developers.

853
00:51:54,060 --> 00:51:57,220
They know their craft very
well. They know their audience, they

854
00:51:57,220 --> 00:52:01,300
know the things they can say
and can't say. And honestly, for

855
00:52:01,300 --> 00:52:06,220
them it's. It's a dance to be
able to let certain amounts of information

856
00:52:06,380 --> 00:52:08,980
out. Like they would say, you
know, today I can announce that.

857
00:52:09,130 --> 00:52:13,250
That this is going on or to,
you know, we're not quite ready to

858
00:52:13,250 --> 00:52:17,610
talk about that yet, but
here's this. And they're very good

859
00:52:17,610 --> 00:52:21,850
about doing that. So I think
let's start off with housing here.

860
00:52:21,850 --> 00:52:26,970
I think some of the stuff with
housing was. Was very interesting

861
00:52:26,970 --> 00:52:30,890
and very exciting. They know
how exciting housing is and how much

862
00:52:30,890 --> 00:52:35,425
people wanted this. And I'm
gonna, I'm gonna dump into this a

863
00:52:35,425 --> 00:52:38,910
bit. Little. Little bit. One
of the things that. One of the questions

864
00:52:38,910 --> 00:52:43,430
that was asked was somebody
who had asked the question heard

865
00:52:43,430 --> 00:52:47,470
tell that in a Horde
neighborhood you would be able to

866
00:52:47,470 --> 00:52:52,030
have houses where the
aesthetic was lions. And that was

867
00:52:52,030 --> 00:52:55,190
debunked. That's. That's not a
thing. And, and as a matter of fact,

868
00:52:55,190 --> 00:52:58,830
they, they did make a pretty
funny quip about it saying, you're

869
00:52:58,830 --> 00:53:01,840
going to have to contact your
HOA if you have an issue with this.

870
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:05,320
But it makes plenty of sense
because I would not want to be in

871
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:09,880
an alliance neighborhood and
have a Horde looking house. It's

872
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:12,640
like your neighbor in your
neighborhood right now paints their

873
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:13,280
house pink.

874
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:13,720
Yeah.

875
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,640
Like, no, dude, where's.

876
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:23,560
Ah, yeah, do it exactly. Like,
it just, it just would be odd. I'm

877
00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:26,640
glad they didn't allow that
thing just because it's like, like

878
00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:29,790
you can tell whenever a game
kind of starts to move into areas

879
00:53:29,790 --> 00:53:33,030
where things are like, the
lines are a little bit blurred because

880
00:53:33,030 --> 00:53:36,070
certain things are allowed
that normally wouldn't be or like

881
00:53:36,070 --> 00:53:40,310
things they would been die
hard against, you know, just several

882
00:53:40,310 --> 00:53:43,070
years beforehand. And I'm
really glad, like out the gate they're

883
00:53:43,070 --> 00:53:45,469
like, hey, nope, nope, nope,
nope. Not happening.

884
00:53:46,030 --> 00:53:49,670
Yeah, that doesn't. That
wouldn't have made sense to me and

885
00:53:49,670 --> 00:53:52,270
I think that probably would
have. It probably would have pissed

886
00:53:52,270 --> 00:53:54,190
a lot of people off, to be
honest with you.

887
00:53:54,190 --> 00:53:54,670
Yeah.

888
00:53:54,670 --> 00:53:57,580
There's just one black sheep
of the neighborhood.

889
00:53:57,740 --> 00:53:58,220
Yeah.

890
00:53:58,220 --> 00:54:03,780
And he's got this freaking
huge portal behind his house. He's

891
00:54:03,780 --> 00:54:07,460
not, he's not cutting his
lawn. And his house is just in, you

892
00:54:07,460 --> 00:54:10,780
know, looks like it's in like
it's from Orgrimmar. Yeah, it's in

893
00:54:10,780 --> 00:54:13,820
Elwyn Forest. I mean, like,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

894
00:54:13,820 --> 00:54:16,260
And how are you going to
communicate? Like humans speak common.

895
00:54:16,260 --> 00:54:21,100
Then you have the orc
neighbors like, oh, yeah, okay.

896
00:54:21,660 --> 00:54:24,300
I know you're like, you're
trying to Get a hold of him. There's

897
00:54:24,300 --> 00:54:26,660
a bunch of people with
pitchforks and torches outside of

898
00:54:26,660 --> 00:54:31,940
his house, and all you hear is
zog. Zog from. All right, this guy's

899
00:54:31,940 --> 00:54:33,180
clearly not going to work with us.

900
00:54:34,300 --> 00:54:34,540
So.

901
00:54:34,540 --> 00:54:37,580
Yeah, so that's not a thing.
Another question that was asked is,

902
00:54:37,980 --> 00:54:43,100
you know, what happens if you
have a guild neighborhood and your

903
00:54:43,100 --> 00:54:47,740
guild fizzles? And now all of
a sudden, like, you've put all this

904
00:54:47,740 --> 00:54:51,920
time and effort into creating
your home and decorating and doing

905
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:54,720
all the things that you want
to do for your plot, and it kind

906
00:54:54,720 --> 00:54:59,600
of fizzles. Well, your house
will pack up very nicely. And they

907
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,040
joked about it saying it's
like little. Everything packs up,

908
00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:05,720
like, into this nice little
tight arcane ball. And then you can

909
00:55:05,720 --> 00:55:10,360
just unpack that in another
plot someplace, which I thought is.

910
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:15,230
That's fantastic. So all the
code in the background will save

911
00:55:15,390 --> 00:55:19,550
everything that you've done
and you can pack it up and move someplace

912
00:55:19,550 --> 00:55:20,710
else, which is cool.

913
00:55:20,710 --> 00:55:27,350
I like that. And it. They. How
do I word this? I feel like they've

914
00:55:27,350 --> 00:55:31,550
done a great job baby,
stepping their way through this whole

915
00:55:31,710 --> 00:55:36,150
feature since the. The
announcement of it. It's the way

916
00:55:36,150 --> 00:55:39,310
that they're very. They're
very measured. That's the word I'm

917
00:55:39,310 --> 00:55:42,790
looking for. This entire thing
has just been a very measured process.

918
00:55:42,870 --> 00:55:47,790
It feels like from the
player's side standpoint is that

919
00:55:47,790 --> 00:55:52,030
just everything is very. Just,
you know, they're not going way over

920
00:55:52,030 --> 00:55:55,110
the top. It's just every.
Every decision they make just feels

921
00:55:55,110 --> 00:55:58,630
very, very measured. And you
kind of. You already know what you're

922
00:55:58,630 --> 00:56:01,910
getting long before you get in
there. There isn't any blurred lines.

923
00:56:01,990 --> 00:56:05,710
And it makes it very enjoyable
because I then have a dependent,

924
00:56:05,710 --> 00:56:10,280
like a transparency or an
understanding. Apparently, words

925
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:14,240
are hard today. I have a
understanding of exactly what I'm

926
00:56:14,240 --> 00:56:18,440
getting, and I appreciate
that. And so I love the fact. I love

927
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:21,320
their responses. And I know
you kind of said this earlier, but,

928
00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:24,720
yes, very measured. And. And
how they. They make their responses

929
00:56:24,720 --> 00:56:28,080
to. To these questions. And
it's just. It's nice to see. There's

930
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:31,840
another thing that I really. I
really kind of really like to see.

931
00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:36,520
I'm like an aspiring engineer.
I'm not great, but I'm so stoked.

932
00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:40,800
I think I'm like, what AM I,
like, 20, I think, on my. My. Yeah,

933
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:43,480
because I haven't been able to
unlock the next. The first set of

934
00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:46,920
recipes yet. So, like, I'm
slow rolling this time as an engineer.

935
00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:50,520
So what I love to see was the.
The bit where they were talking about

936
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:55,320
press, profession, decor. So
it, you know, the decor grants, skill

937
00:56:55,320 --> 00:57:00,440
ups and the relevant expansion
track itself. So like it'll be available

938
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:05,170
by recipe slash complexity. So
just like the fact that that's going

939
00:57:05,170 --> 00:57:09,410
to be like baked in with the
current expansion already. Love it.

940
00:57:09,730 --> 00:57:11,570
Seamless. It works well.

941
00:57:11,730 --> 00:57:15,490
Yeah, it does. And to, to go
along with that they were talking

942
00:57:15,490 --> 00:57:19,770
about how there's at first
there's not going to be any items

943
00:57:19,770 --> 00:57:22,570
available for housing on the
trading posts, which is good. And

944
00:57:22,570 --> 00:57:26,530
the reason being is because
there's tons of other sources for

945
00:57:26,530 --> 00:57:28,860
you to get one of those being
crafting as you just talked about

946
00:57:28,860 --> 00:57:33,300
achievements, finishing
campaigns and all the other things

947
00:57:33,300 --> 00:57:35,020
that you know, all the other
achievements that you've done in

948
00:57:35,020 --> 00:57:40,020
the game. And like we were
saying at the, at the top of the

949
00:57:40,020 --> 00:57:43,300
show when we were talking
about how Jibs and I are, we're trying

950
00:57:43,300 --> 00:57:49,860
to posthumously prepare for
having these unlocks and having as

951
00:57:49,860 --> 00:57:53,660
much housing, as many housing
items as we can possibly have ready.

952
00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:56,560
We're trying to get ready for
that now by hitting old achievements.

953
00:57:56,800 --> 00:58:00,520
But what they did say is that
in the future they are going to put

954
00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:04,680
a blog post up with in game
information that will be visible

955
00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:08,200
in alpha, which you know,
we'll eventually be able to see for

956
00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:13,280
the players who are not in
alpha so that players can understand

957
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:18,160
what they need to do to pre
hunt these requirements. Yep, that's

958
00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:21,830
great. So if you want to get a
head start on it, you. Right now

959
00:58:21,830 --> 00:58:25,670
we're kind of in the wind on
knowing exactly what it is, but I

960
00:58:25,670 --> 00:58:29,310
would say the more
achievements that you can get as

961
00:58:29,310 --> 00:58:34,950
of right now, do it. But there
should be a list of, of ways to get

962
00:58:35,270 --> 00:58:39,030
housing items that is much
more specific directly from Blizzard

963
00:58:39,030 --> 00:58:42,110
coming in the near future. One
of the other things that we talked

964
00:58:42,110 --> 00:58:46,790
about earlier and we were
mentioning books and I wanted to

965
00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:50,720
just make mention of this not
at launch, this is not going to be

966
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:55,400
a feature that we're getting
right away, but once they get the

967
00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:59,480
basis of housing out and
everything is running correctly,

968
00:58:59,960 --> 00:59:03,800
Blizzard is going to be
looking for feedback on ways to improve

969
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:09,080
the housing system which
already looks absolutely insane and

970
00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:14,130
probably going to be one of
the pinnacle housing systems in any

971
00:59:14,130 --> 00:59:17,250
mmo. I honestly I feel that
way. I was going to kind of save

972
00:59:17,250 --> 00:59:19,930
that for the end just as a
general thought, but I really feel

973
00:59:19,930 --> 00:59:23,170
that this housing system is
going to even surpass that of wildstar,

974
00:59:23,410 --> 00:59:25,490
which was incredible at the time.

975
00:59:25,730 --> 00:59:30,130
Gosh, you know what's crazy is
it's gone and it has been gone for

976
00:59:30,850 --> 00:59:35,170
so many years now. However,
that was the best housing system

977
00:59:35,650 --> 00:59:41,780
ever in an MMORPG ever. It was
amazing. And agreed when that, when

978
00:59:41,780 --> 00:59:44,220
that left the industry, you
know, when that game left, that left

979
00:59:44,220 --> 00:59:49,060
a major gap in housing
systems. ESO has a pretty great housing

980
00:59:49,060 --> 00:59:52,740
system for the things that you
can do. You know, the sheer amount

981
00:59:52,740 --> 00:59:58,420
of custom customization that
people can do is pretty similar to

982
00:59:58,420 --> 01:00:02,380
what you see here. And so it's
really great to see both of these

983
01:00:02,380 --> 01:00:05,020
games, especially with
Warcraft's updated version, everything

984
01:00:05,020 --> 01:00:08,260
they're doing, because. Yeah,
I totally agree. I totally see Wildstar

985
01:00:08,260 --> 01:00:10,250
2.point zero here with this
housing system.

986
01:00:10,250 --> 01:00:13,010
Yeah, I do. And I think the
things that put, that are going to

987
01:00:13,010 --> 01:00:17,210
put wow's housing over the top
and just, you know, take the trophy

988
01:00:17,290 --> 01:00:21,010
is the, the way that they're
making neighborhoods a social hub

989
01:00:21,010 --> 01:00:23,490
and then the way that they're
adding in a progression system with

990
01:00:23,490 --> 01:00:24,010
endeavors.

991
01:00:24,010 --> 01:00:29,090
Yes, endeavors are going to be
so, so good to have. And that's another

992
01:00:29,090 --> 01:00:31,010
reason too, folks. Like, if
you're still looking for a guild,

993
01:00:31,010 --> 01:00:34,240
come join us. It's going to be
busy. It's gonna be very, very busy.

994
01:00:34,470 --> 01:00:37,270
And so, yeah, it's going to,
it's going to be busy. And the endeavors.

995
01:00:37,270 --> 01:00:39,750
One of the interesting things
I learned about the endeavors, which

996
01:00:39,750 --> 01:00:43,310
is, is the progression system
is that there's going to be events,

997
01:00:43,310 --> 01:00:46,790
like timed events that are
running in a certain neighborhood.

998
01:00:46,950 --> 01:00:50,309
And your event for your
neighborhood might not be the same

999
01:00:50,309 --> 01:00:54,030
as another neighborhood's
event. Yeah, you can visit the other

1000
01:00:54,030 --> 01:01:01,150
neighborhood and you can spend
your, you can spend your tender,

1001
01:01:01,150 --> 01:01:03,830
I don't want to call it tender
because not trading posts, but you

1002
01:01:03,830 --> 01:01:07,150
can spend your, your currency.

1003
01:01:08,430 --> 01:01:09,590
Whatever you want to call it.

1004
01:01:09,590 --> 01:01:15,870
You can spend your currency on
another events items and transmogs

1005
01:01:16,430 --> 01:01:19,750
and you know, housing items,
which I think is, is really cool.

1006
01:01:19,750 --> 01:01:23,470
So like, if you find out that,
you know, there's, I don't know,

1007
01:01:23,790 --> 01:01:26,870
a brew fest event going on in
another neighborhood, you can go

1008
01:01:26,870 --> 01:01:30,240
visit that neighborhood ahead
and spend your currency there, which

1009
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:34,000
is super cool. But let me
circle back around to bookshelves

1010
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:36,560
because that's, that's what we
started this little mini conversation

1011
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:42,440
with at launch. We will not
have functional bookshelves. There

1012
01:01:42,440 --> 01:01:46,840
are bookshelves that you can
get. But functional storage or display

1013
01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:50,720
is something that was brought
up during this Q and A and they said

1014
01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:53,200
those are the types of things
that they want to dive into. Once

1015
01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:57,520
they, the basis of the housing
system is running smoothly, they

1016
01:01:57,520 --> 01:02:00,880
want to dive into ways to
improve the system. And that was

1017
01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:05,200
one of the examples that they
brought up, being able to have a

1018
01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:08,800
collection of all of your
books that you could walk up to,

1019
01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:14,840
click on that book and then
read it, which would be super cool.

1020
01:02:14,840 --> 01:02:18,000
Just adds a little bit more
intricate detail to your house.

1021
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:20,160
That'd be amazing. I love
their philosophy too. Kind of like

1022
01:02:20,160 --> 01:02:24,320
going off what you said there.
They're. They're wanting to ship

1023
01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:27,720
version one of housing and
then they're going to grow based

1024
01:02:27,720 --> 01:02:30,120
on player feedback, you know,
like basically everything you just

1025
01:02:30,120 --> 01:02:32,520
said. But I just love the fact
that that's their mentality, you

1026
01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:36,120
know, like when it comes to
housing, which has been, they said

1027
01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:40,160
in development, I believe they
started in Legion is what they said.

1028
01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:45,360
Like this is when this, like
the, the pieces kind of started,

1029
01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:49,820
you know, like moving in that
direction was Legion. And so this

1030
01:02:49,820 --> 01:02:52,620
has been going on for almost
10 years that they've been trying

1031
01:02:52,620 --> 01:02:57,860
to put something like this
together. And so it is going to be

1032
01:02:58,180 --> 01:03:02,220
monumental for this game and
it's going to bring so many people.

1033
01:03:02,220 --> 01:03:04,220
And honestly, I think that's
part of the reason why they know,

1034
01:03:04,220 --> 01:03:06,380
they know they have to get it
right and they're so measured in

1035
01:03:06,380 --> 01:03:09,300
all the steps that they're
taking, which is great because I

1036
01:03:09,300 --> 01:03:13,790
have. We have seen, oh my
gosh, and all the years that we've

1037
01:03:13,790 --> 01:03:17,070
been creating, we have seen so
many other development companies

1038
01:03:17,150 --> 01:03:21,310
over promise and under deliver
and the over promise part coming

1039
01:03:21,310 --> 01:03:24,430
from. It could be hype, it
could be something like that. They,

1040
01:03:24,990 --> 01:03:27,150
you know, that they firmly
believed at the time that they could

1041
01:03:27,150 --> 01:03:32,390
do and you know, ultimately
those things would fall the wayside

1042
01:03:32,390 --> 01:03:35,870
or fall apart and it wouldn't
be coming out at all. And then you

1043
01:03:35,870 --> 01:03:39,560
have a disappointed player
base. You have, you know, people

1044
01:03:39,560 --> 01:03:42,560
who are upset. But when it
comes to housing, when it comes to

1045
01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:45,800
this feature right here from
Blizzard, they have. It's going to

1046
01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:48,600
be great for the community,
man. It's going to be so, so good

1047
01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:50,280
that the community gets to
have this.

1048
01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:53,240
And there's, there's plenty of
people out there that like, they

1049
01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:56,400
could, they could care less
about housing. And that's, that's

1050
01:03:56,400 --> 01:04:00,400
totally fine. But I, I
honestly believe that a vast majority

1051
01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:03,080
of the community is, is just
super pumped.

1052
01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:03,800
Oh yeah.

1053
01:04:03,960 --> 01:04:04,690
About housing.

1054
01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:06,920
Yeah, absolutely. And there's
some other great things too in this

1055
01:04:06,920 --> 01:04:09,040
Q and A. And one of the things
that you talked about was customization

1056
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:10,680
and races, which looked really cool.

1057
01:04:10,680 --> 01:04:14,760
Yeah, they're doing a few
updates. Didn't sound like too many,

1058
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:21,000
but they are doing some
updates to, to older races like Darkspear.

1059
01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:24,360
Like they're getting new
hairstyles and some skin colors as

1060
01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:29,960
part of the Zula Mon campaign.
And then over time, as more updates

1061
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:32,800
roll out, they're probably
going to, you know, try and do the

1062
01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:33,880
same thing for other races.

1063
01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:37,960
That Zolomon race, I would
love to see that as a playable race.

1064
01:04:38,440 --> 01:04:42,480
That is the first, that's the
first race I've seen that's come

1065
01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:45,720
out. I feel like that just
from an intimidation factor, their

1066
01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:49,320
faces, like, compared to an
Orc, really like, you know what I

1067
01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:52,000
mean? Like just the
intimidation on their face just like,

1068
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:56,040
okay, don't want to mess with
them. Like, they look gnarly, man.

1069
01:04:56,040 --> 01:04:58,870
You're just called orc dorks.
Dorks. I saw it.

1070
01:04:58,870 --> 01:04:59,350
I did.

1071
01:04:59,350 --> 01:05:00,430
I saw it in your face.

1072
01:05:00,590 --> 01:05:03,710
This is a, this is a, this is
a neutral faction show.

1073
01:05:06,350 --> 01:05:10,950
So, so speaking of races, this
does bring up a another question

1074
01:05:10,950 --> 01:05:13,189
that was. I was going to save
this for later, but I'm not going

1075
01:05:13,189 --> 01:05:16,190
to because you segued
perfectly into this. The question

1076
01:05:16,270 --> 01:05:23,960
was brought up about, about
new races and it essentially revolved

1077
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:29,720
around what is the process for
determining new playable races in

1078
01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:33,560
World of Warcraft? And I think
a lot of Ian answered this question.

1079
01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:39,400
I think a lot of really good
perspective for the players to understand

1080
01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:44,680
why this is not an easy
process was brought up by, by Ian.

1081
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:50,240
First of all, the way it's
determined is narrative and you know,

1082
01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:54,320
you know, it all stems with
their plan. Like they're going to

1083
01:05:54,320 --> 01:06:00,760
build in a new race into a
story first. So as an example from

1084
01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:06,160
the War within the Heronir
were brought into the storyline.

1085
01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:12,720
And when I like when I first
saw that character, I was like, what

1086
01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:18,850
the f is that? That is.
That's. That. I never done seen that

1087
01:06:18,850 --> 01:06:24,250
before. But it really did
spark my interest right off the bat.

1088
01:06:24,890 --> 01:06:31,450
And one of the clues was the
fact that they really gave a good

1089
01:06:31,530 --> 01:06:38,450
major story arc that revolved
around the Heron. And so, so keep

1090
01:06:38,450 --> 01:06:41,670
that in mind in the future as
you're, as you're playing through

1091
01:06:41,670 --> 01:06:47,030
stuff. That is one of the,
that's. It's one of the biggest indicators.

1092
01:06:47,110 --> 01:06:49,790
Now we could all, we could
always say, well, there's, well,

1093
01:06:49,790 --> 01:06:52,390
there's the Tortolan and
there's all these other races that

1094
01:06:52,390 --> 01:06:55,710
they've done that with. But
every once in a while when you get

1095
01:06:55,710 --> 01:06:59,550
a race that they're paying
special, a non playable race that

1096
01:06:59,550 --> 01:07:03,150
they're paying very special
attention to, there is a chance that

1097
01:07:03,150 --> 01:07:07,270
that particular race could end
up being in the game. But the other

1098
01:07:07,270 --> 01:07:12,350
factors that go into that are
one, does it make sense for this

1099
01:07:12,350 --> 01:07:17,070
particular non playable race
to join the Horde or the Alliance.

1100
01:07:17,150 --> 01:07:20,270
And like what are the, what
are the parameters there? How are

1101
01:07:20,270 --> 01:07:22,910
we going to work that into the
story? Because Lore is important.

1102
01:07:24,190 --> 01:07:27,230
I will say that again. Lore is important.

1103
01:07:27,790 --> 01:07:28,750
Heck yeah, it is.

1104
01:07:28,830 --> 01:07:32,350
Yeah. It's. It's a pinnacle
part of this game. This is a storytelling

1105
01:07:32,350 --> 01:07:37,250
game. It is a massively
multiplayer online role playing game.

1106
01:07:37,890 --> 01:07:42,850
But it's an rpg so you have to
at some point like Lore, it does

1107
01:07:42,850 --> 01:07:45,090
have to be very apparent to
folks that Lore is very important.

1108
01:07:45,650 --> 01:07:50,890
The other thing to consider
that Ian said that I didn't, I kind

1109
01:07:50,890 --> 01:07:56,690
of knew was an issue, but it
didn't really like click in was that

1110
01:07:56,690 --> 01:08:01,650
they need to consider every
single armor type for every form

1111
01:08:01,650 --> 01:08:06,160
of these new races including
all the different forms for all the

1112
01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:09,360
different classes for the
lifetime of the game.

1113
01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:10,240
Yeah.

1114
01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:14,160
So it's a big deal. Like
imagine what an undertaking any type

1115
01:08:14,160 --> 01:08:19,120
of a dragon can would do. It
changes everything, right?

1116
01:08:19,280 --> 01:08:19,920
Yep.

1117
01:08:19,920 --> 01:08:25,120
So they base a lot of these
on. Is it easy for them to work with

1118
01:08:25,520 --> 01:08:29,440
based on the existing
character models and that. That makes

1119
01:08:29,440 --> 01:08:34,159
a lot of sense to me. So
that's why, you know, we don't see

1120
01:08:34,959 --> 01:08:39,439
some of the larger races in
the game like ogres and such as,

1121
01:08:39,439 --> 01:08:44,359
as being playable classes. It
has to. Everything kind of has to

1122
01:08:44,359 --> 01:08:49,639
work and not be an over the
top time sink for them. It's got

1123
01:08:49,639 --> 01:08:54,599
to be time efficient for them
to be able to, to bring a new playable

1124
01:08:54,599 --> 01:08:56,850
race in the game. And it's a
massive undertaking. That's why we

1125
01:08:56,850 --> 01:08:59,250
don't see it all the time. So
I thought that was a super important

1126
01:08:59,890 --> 01:09:01,210
part that I wanted to bring up.

1127
01:09:01,210 --> 01:09:03,410
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I mean
we'll think about it. You know, like

1128
01:09:03,410 --> 01:09:07,530
if they will wear mail, they
have to make sure it fits for over

1129
01:09:07,530 --> 01:09:13,650
10,000 pieces of mail. Like
that's insane. That is absolutely

1130
01:09:13,970 --> 01:09:16,050
insane. Another thing that
they talked about on there that I

1131
01:09:16,050 --> 01:09:18,290
really liked was the Prey
system. That's something I can't

1132
01:09:18,290 --> 01:09:21,930
wait to see. So you know
you're looking at from a prey difficulty

1133
01:09:21,930 --> 01:09:25,080
standpoint, it's basically the
difficulty is going to buff these

1134
01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:28,920
enemies for you in that zone.
So like let's say you are running

1135
01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:32,760
on nightmare difficulty for
your, your the Prey system. Everything

1136
01:09:32,760 --> 01:09:35,880
in that zone is going to
reflect that difficulty. So that's

1137
01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:39,560
going to really increase your
gameplay experience. Especially if

1138
01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:43,240
you don't have very good gear.
I can imagine. So that was, that

1139
01:09:43,240 --> 01:09:44,400
was pretty surprising to see.

1140
01:09:44,480 --> 01:09:49,390
Yeah. And it was also too at
the lower levels I think at the base

1141
01:09:49,390 --> 01:09:52,270
level. If you're on normal
with the prey system, then others

1142
01:09:52,270 --> 01:09:56,510
can pitch in and help you. But
if you're on those higher tiers,

1143
01:09:56,590 --> 01:09:58,430
then you're on your own dog.

1144
01:09:58,590 --> 01:10:01,670
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. And
then on next to that you got the

1145
01:10:01,670 --> 01:10:04,750
reward slash vault. So it's
going to be for the prey system.

1146
01:10:04,750 --> 01:10:08,230
It's going to be treated
similarly to delves for great vault

1147
01:10:08,230 --> 01:10:10,990
world row. So we're going to
get more details on that and that

1148
01:10:10,990 --> 01:10:15,230
was pretty cool. I was excited
to hear about PvP because, you know,

1149
01:10:15,230 --> 01:10:18,290
I, I used to. That's how I was
introduced to War Warcraft way back

1150
01:10:18,290 --> 01:10:20,850
in the day. Like that was my
main thing was just PvP and it was

1151
01:10:20,850 --> 01:10:26,010
that for very, a very long
time anyway. All right, so PvP onboarding,

1152
01:10:26,170 --> 01:10:30,170
really this is great for any
new player to any type of content

1153
01:10:30,170 --> 01:10:33,450
you're looking at with pve.
They did this with follower dungeons,

1154
01:10:33,529 --> 01:10:37,890
which I thought were
fantastic. Fantastic to help eliminate

1155
01:10:37,890 --> 01:10:41,850
some of that, that anxiety
people have whenever they come into

1156
01:10:41,850 --> 01:10:44,860
the game and they're like, I
don't, I don't know, you know, there's

1157
01:10:44,860 --> 01:10:47,020
a lot of unknowns and you
could totally just do a follower

1158
01:10:47,020 --> 01:10:49,340
dungeon. Right. To really get
in your class. Well, they're also

1159
01:10:49,340 --> 01:10:54,060
doing that with PvP cash. I
remember, I'll never forget, I'll

1160
01:10:54,060 --> 01:10:57,180
never forget when you and I
were doing one of these types of

1161
01:10:58,220 --> 01:11:03,380
training grounds I believe is
what they're called and we won the

1162
01:11:03,380 --> 01:11:07,140
match. You got a ton of kills.
In fact, if you were on top of the

1163
01:11:07,140 --> 01:11:10,380
board, I'm totally outing you.
I'm so sorry. I can't stop now. The

1164
01:11:10,380 --> 01:11:13,780
ball's already rolling and
you're forget.

1165
01:11:13,780 --> 01:11:15,700
Yeah, man, I got number one.

1166
01:11:15,940 --> 01:11:18,380
I guess a great job. Let's go
play against some real people now.

1167
01:11:18,380 --> 01:11:20,260
We'll see how this goes. And
you're like, wait, what?

1168
01:11:21,860 --> 01:11:22,820
I don't wanna.

1169
01:11:23,300 --> 01:11:28,900
You didn't realize it was
against NPCs and I, I honestly was

1170
01:11:28,900 --> 01:11:32,740
not a hundred percent sure it
wasn't players as well because I

1171
01:11:32,740 --> 01:11:37,660
just didn't know and turns out
that was the case and so. But it's

1172
01:11:37,660 --> 01:11:39,620
great though that they're
adding that to the game. It's going

1173
01:11:39,620 --> 01:11:41,780
to allow people to get into
the game. The new training ground

1174
01:11:41,780 --> 01:11:46,460
system. So BGs basic
battlegrounds versus NPCs essentially

1175
01:11:47,020 --> 01:11:50,020
it's going to be great for you
to kind of get in and sink your teeth

1176
01:11:50,020 --> 01:11:53,420
into the pace of combat. Like
how that can feel from a player to

1177
01:11:53,420 --> 01:11:56,700
player standpoint. It's going
to help you understand the objectives

1178
01:11:56,700 --> 01:12:01,060
in these maps because very.
And I basically queue up often when

1179
01:12:01,060 --> 01:12:04,740
I'm out in the world whenever
I'm playing. If right now I am trying

1180
01:12:04,740 --> 01:12:07,540
to push for the transmog for
the. The elite tier. So I have to,

1181
01:12:07,540 --> 01:12:10,900
I think hit 2K on PvP. So I'm
just out there in the world just

1182
01:12:10,900 --> 01:12:13,220
enjoying whatever I'm doing.
And in the background I'm just queuing

1183
01:12:13,220 --> 01:12:18,659
up and doing my thing. And it
can be very brutal. And many times

1184
01:12:18,659 --> 01:12:22,420
I see more often than not
people coming into the match and

1185
01:12:22,420 --> 01:12:25,340
they're saying, okay, boys,
what do we do here? It's my first

1186
01:12:25,340 --> 01:12:29,500
time, you know, and that
happens more times than you. Than.

1187
01:12:29,660 --> 01:12:32,220
Than you would think. And so I
think this is great that they're

1188
01:12:32,220 --> 01:12:35,460
adding to the game. It really
kind of in a good way. This isn't

1189
01:12:35,460 --> 01:12:38,620
a derogatory thing. It kind of
holds your hand to kind of get you

1190
01:12:38,620 --> 01:12:41,620
used to this. Because when
you're trying something that's brand

1191
01:12:41,620 --> 01:12:45,260
new to you. And I'll be the
perfect example for mythics. That's

1192
01:12:45,260 --> 01:12:49,540
a stretch for me. It's not
norm. It's not my norm. So when I

1193
01:12:49,540 --> 01:12:52,900
get into a mythic, like I'm.
I'll tell you, I'll be the first

1194
01:12:52,900 --> 01:12:57,080
one to tell you, hey, everyone
pulling aggro. Hey, Jibs stressed

1195
01:12:57,080 --> 01:13:00,680
the heck out, man. When we're
in the. We're in these mythics and

1196
01:13:00,680 --> 01:13:04,760
I'm the first to take a dirt
nap. You have no idea how deep my

1197
01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:07,360
head is into the palm of my
hand at that point. Like, I'm just

1198
01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:11,159
like, oh, like it is a
stressor for me.

1199
01:13:11,159 --> 01:13:16,560
You should try healing some.
Talk about white knuckling your keyboard.

1200
01:13:17,920 --> 01:13:22,600
It's. Yeah, dude, it's not my
norm, but you know, like, so I totally

1201
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:26,720
get the stressors that people
face coming into a game with a. I'm

1202
01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:29,400
going to finish my monologue
here with, you know, with a new system

1203
01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:31,680
that they're not familiar
with. So it's really, really good.

1204
01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:35,160
It's great even that, you
know, they're doing this also now

1205
01:13:35,160 --> 01:13:37,520
for the PvP crowd. And it'll
be a permanent fixture.

1206
01:13:37,520 --> 01:13:40,840
Right. It brings it on par
with the follower dungeons that you

1207
01:13:40,840 --> 01:13:45,760
mentioned earlier, which I
think is a phenomenal add to this

1208
01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:50,240
game for accessibility for
people who don't normally run that

1209
01:13:50,240 --> 01:13:54,680
content and. And people who
want to see the story but don't want

1210
01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:59,360
to pug. They might play solo.
The follower dungeons and things

1211
01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:03,760
like this new PvP onboarding
with the training grounds is absolutely

1212
01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:07,520
fantastic for them to Add to
the game for accessibility sake.

1213
01:14:07,840 --> 01:14:12,120
One thing I quickly want to
say about follower dungeons and the

1214
01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:16,120
addition of that to the game.
What was that? Maybe a year ago,

1215
01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:16,880
Maybe two years ago.

1216
01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:17,800
Yeah, yeah. War within.

1217
01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:22,800
If you are a healer or if
you're trying a heal spec or if you've

1218
01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:26,600
never healed before, those
follower dungeons are your friend.

1219
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:30,840
They absolutely are. Because
you can tweak your spec, you don't

1220
01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:34,320
have to worry about a group
waiting on you. You can try your

1221
01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:38,710
rotation. There are so many
things that you can do with the follower

1222
01:14:38,780 --> 01:14:43,420
war dungeons to get acquainted
with your class. It's an excellent

1223
01:14:43,420 --> 01:14:44,540
training ground for PvE.

1224
01:14:44,540 --> 01:14:45,180
Oh yeah.

1225
01:14:45,180 --> 01:14:46,420
So use it as a tool.

1226
01:14:46,420 --> 01:14:49,860
Absolutely. They also have the
war mode playground. You see that?

1227
01:14:49,860 --> 01:14:53,780
The new large war mode area.
So it's like similar to Slayer's

1228
01:14:53,780 --> 01:14:57,980
Rise but it's. It's a new area
in Void Storm so it's going to be

1229
01:14:57,980 --> 01:15:01,020
packed with war mode
activities. So objectives, all kinds

1230
01:15:01,020 --> 01:15:03,860
of fun things there. PvP
themed content. Basically it's a

1231
01:15:03,860 --> 01:15:07,370
rogue's preference playground.
So casters, I'm telling you now,

1232
01:15:07,370 --> 01:15:10,490
if you have war mode on
casters, we know what happens. If

1233
01:15:10,490 --> 01:15:14,250
you're a caster and a rogue
goes after you melee, well, we'll

1234
01:15:14,250 --> 01:15:17,570
just pop some shields and pray
to the Titans that we survive.

1235
01:15:17,650 --> 01:15:21,410
So yep, some, some casters out
there get caught in that and just

1236
01:15:21,490 --> 01:15:24,370
if you get caught with a rogue
sometimes just take your hands off

1237
01:15:24,370 --> 01:15:27,810
the keyboard. Sometimes it's
best just let them finish.

1238
01:15:27,810 --> 01:15:32,070
I was doing the weekly arena
skirmish yesterday. I think you had

1239
01:15:32,070 --> 01:15:34,510
just left. I think you had a
call. You just left. And I'm like

1240
01:15:34,510 --> 01:15:37,390
well I guess I could try to
finish that. That weekly thing. You

1241
01:15:37,390 --> 01:15:42,670
know. There was a rogue that
was the only member from the opposing

1242
01:15:42,670 --> 01:15:46,230
team and so the second person
didn't join the join into the match.

1243
01:15:46,310 --> 01:15:50,710
So it was a 2v1 us 2 versus
them 1. And the mage that was on

1244
01:15:50,710 --> 01:15:56,470
my team just sat back and just
let us do like a. A one on one fight.

1245
01:15:56,820 --> 01:15:59,980
I'm just trying to think of
the. The orc's name for their one

1246
01:15:59,980 --> 01:16:01,700
on one fights. I forgot it but.

1247
01:16:02,180 --> 01:16:02,900
Makara.

1248
01:16:02,900 --> 01:16:06,980
Makara. Yes. Thank you. That
rogue played me like a fiddle. Dude

1249
01:16:07,380 --> 01:16:11,580
just owned me 100 and he just
took his time like surgically like

1250
01:16:11,580 --> 01:16:15,580
a doctor just cut me to pieces
and I was just played with you like

1251
01:16:15,580 --> 01:16:16,460
a cat. Yeah.

1252
01:16:16,460 --> 01:16:17,460
Your cat plays with.

1253
01:16:17,460 --> 01:16:21,500
Yeah, it's exactly what it
was. It was crazy. So I say that

1254
01:16:21,500 --> 01:16:23,300
to say rogues eat your heart
out because you're about to have

1255
01:16:23,300 --> 01:16:24,010
a good time over there.

1256
01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:29,840
So one of the biggest things
that we had come out of this was

1257
01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:33,720
the conversation they had
about add ons and ui. And this is

1258
01:16:33,720 --> 01:16:37,520
a hot topic. This is a super
hot topic right now because there's

1259
01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:43,920
some folks who are very
reliant on add ons for certain things.

1260
01:16:44,160 --> 01:16:49,200
And I'm going to give my
opinion on this because I'm. I can

1261
01:16:49,200 --> 01:16:54,610
see both sides of this. This,
of this argument now. Whereas I've

1262
01:16:54,610 --> 01:16:58,930
always been a proponent for.
If there's an add on for something

1263
01:16:59,570 --> 01:17:04,130
and it's a popular add on, I'm
talking like the. The highest amounts

1264
01:17:04,130 --> 01:17:09,010
of downloads on Curse Forge.
It probably should be a pretty good

1265
01:17:09,010 --> 01:17:13,690
indicator to a game developer
that these should be native tools

1266
01:17:13,690 --> 01:17:18,180
to the game. And although
it's. It's. I don't think it's too

1267
01:17:18,180 --> 01:17:21,100
late. It's definitely late in
the game here, you know, 20 plus

1268
01:17:21,100 --> 01:17:27,900
years out. But I do think that
the changes that Blizzard is making

1269
01:17:28,060 --> 01:17:33,300
are all leaning in the right
direction for replacing some of our

1270
01:17:33,300 --> 01:17:37,180
beloved add ons. And when I
say that, I say for me personally,

1271
01:17:37,180 --> 01:17:42,640
things like Heal Bot. I just
replaced Heal Bot with the. The native

1272
01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:48,320
UI for. For mouse over healing
and it. It's working. There are definitely

1273
01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:51,960
some improvements that they
can do. I would say the biggest ones

1274
01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:55,240
that are out there that are
going to be affected by this are

1275
01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:59,440
weak auras and didn't. Do we
just hear the weak auras.

1276
01:17:59,440 --> 01:18:00,360
It's done. Yeah.

1277
01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:01,160
Did they say they're.

1278
01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:04,760
It's done. They're not
updating anymore. When in for midnight.

1279
01:18:04,760 --> 01:18:09,500
Oh man. Dude, that is so huge.

1280
01:18:09,580 --> 01:18:10,380
End of an era.

1281
01:18:10,380 --> 01:18:14,620
It's the end of an era. I mean
weak auras is. I know I talked about

1282
01:18:14,620 --> 01:18:18,100
a little bit on. On the last
show. I'm not a huge user of weak

1283
01:18:18,100 --> 01:18:22,300
auras, although I have in the
past use weak auras. But with the

1284
01:18:22,300 --> 01:18:25,860
improvements to the cooldown
system, if you don't know weak ores

1285
01:18:25,860 --> 01:18:29,580
is. It is an add on to.
There's all kinds of things you can

1286
01:18:29,580 --> 01:18:33,900
do with weak ores. One of the
major uses for WeakAuras is to monitor

1287
01:18:33,900 --> 01:18:38,860
cool cooldowns in the game and
the changes that they're making to

1288
01:18:38,860 --> 01:18:42,780
the cooldown system I think
are. Are very, very big changes and

1289
01:18:42,780 --> 01:18:45,900
it's going to make a
difference for a lot of us in using

1290
01:18:45,900 --> 01:18:49,340
the native ui. But to hear
that weak auras is going away like

1291
01:18:49,340 --> 01:18:53,740
that, that's a huge thing. The
other one that I had on my mind was

1292
01:18:53,900 --> 01:18:59,060
Deadly boss mods, which is
absolutely essential. I believe it

1293
01:18:59,060 --> 01:19:03,450
is absolutely essential unless
you want to play the game like in,

1294
01:19:03,690 --> 01:19:08,730
in more of a hard mode way,
which is also fine. But I just think

1295
01:19:08,730 --> 01:19:14,090
that, that something like DBM
is, is a massive upgrade for the,

1296
01:19:14,250 --> 01:19:17,130
for your gameplay if you're
gonna do it. And I want to see what

1297
01:19:17,130 --> 01:19:17,610
they do with it.

1298
01:19:17,610 --> 01:19:20,210
Yeah, yeah, I have my hand
raised for that. Like hard mode.

1299
01:19:20,210 --> 01:19:27,620
Yeah. I love the idea of DBM
not being a thing per se. I like

1300
01:19:27,700 --> 01:19:33,420
the idea of not having those
cues. This is a, this may be a really

1301
01:19:33,420 --> 01:19:36,180
spicy take and I'm not trying
to be like, oh, I can't believe.

1302
01:19:36,180 --> 01:19:40,620
That's not at all what I'm
trying to be. But like I like as

1303
01:19:40,620 --> 01:19:44,780
native as possible. As native
as a. As much of a native experience

1304
01:19:44,780 --> 01:19:47,700
as possible. And this is just
my personal preference whenever it

1305
01:19:47,700 --> 01:19:51,740
comes to gaming, so. Or for
Warcraft. So I will, I'll go through

1306
01:19:51,740 --> 01:19:54,470
those stance where I'll add
like a bunch of add ons because it's

1307
01:19:54,470 --> 01:19:57,310
fun. Try new things out. Like
by the way, dialogue. If you haven't.

1308
01:19:57,310 --> 01:20:00,030
If you don't have that one,
download that one. That's amazing.

1309
01:20:00,030 --> 01:20:00,470
Agreed.

1310
01:20:00,470 --> 01:20:03,590
You know, like I, I'm now just
using the native ui. I got rid of

1311
01:20:03,590 --> 01:20:07,990
using dominoes and it's just
stuff like that. Like I would love

1312
01:20:08,150 --> 01:20:11,790
for, I would love for DBM to
not be a thing and we have to rely

1313
01:20:11,790 --> 01:20:15,150
on knowing the fights. We have
to rely on what, you know, paying

1314
01:20:15,150 --> 01:20:18,910
attention to the stages and,
and not having those, those vocal

1315
01:20:18,910 --> 01:20:21,710
cues and those things. That's
just me though. That's more of like

1316
01:20:21,710 --> 01:20:24,310
the classic era style, like
when it first came out, you know,

1317
01:20:24,310 --> 01:20:27,230
like that's, that's in my
head. What I would love to see as

1318
01:20:27,230 --> 01:20:29,630
you raise that eyebrow at me
and everyone else who's listening

1319
01:20:29,630 --> 01:20:32,470
right now. But you know, it is
what it is. That's where, that's

1320
01:20:32,470 --> 01:20:33,430
where my head's at with it.

1321
01:20:33,430 --> 01:20:40,550
I'm contemplating whether or
not I need to figure out if you're

1322
01:20:41,110 --> 01:20:42,630
using DBM or not.

1323
01:20:42,630 --> 01:20:44,790
Oh, I am, I am.

1324
01:20:44,790 --> 01:20:50,160
This. Is that why you're
stepping in shit all the time?

1325
01:20:50,240 --> 01:20:52,480
No, I use it. I use it.

1326
01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:56,400
I'm liking them, which is
amazing healing. And I'm looking

1327
01:20:56,560 --> 01:21:02,680
at my, at my mouse over UI and
I'm just noticing Chunk, Chunk, chunk.

1328
01:21:02,680 --> 01:21:07,480
He's now at a quarter health
and I'm like throwing bushels of

1329
01:21:07,480 --> 01:21:13,520
leaves at him to heal him. And
I look over and he's got one foot

1330
01:21:13,520 --> 01:21:20,880
and half his body is, is an
inferno. Get out of there.

1331
01:21:20,960 --> 01:21:24,040
I should download that add on
gtfo, I think is the name of it.

1332
01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:27,440
But anyway, no, he's sitting
there burning.

1333
01:21:27,520 --> 01:21:30,480
He's burning, and he's like,
this is fine. I'm fine.

1334
01:21:30,800 --> 01:21:31,760
Everything's fine.

1335
01:21:31,920 --> 01:21:32,960
No problem here.

1336
01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:36,120
You know, it's oddly. Oddly
enough, I can go handle PvP all day

1337
01:21:36,120 --> 01:21:38,880
long and just get my face beat
and not think a thing of it. But,

1338
01:21:38,880 --> 01:21:41,240
yeah, you moment. You put me
in a mythic, and I'm trying to chuck

1339
01:21:41,240 --> 01:21:44,440
and get jive and I'm trying to
like, you know, I feel like Ron Burgundy

1340
01:21:44,440 --> 01:21:46,920
afterwards, he's like, boy,

1341
01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:48,946
That escalated quickly. I
mean, that really got out of hand

1342
01:21:48,946 --> 01:21:49,144
fast. It jumped up a notch. It
did, didn't it? That escalated quickly.

1343
01:21:58,440 --> 01:21:58,800
Yeah.

1344
01:21:58,800 --> 01:22:02,680
That is. That is mythics.
Especially some of those hierarchies.

1345
01:22:02,680 --> 01:22:04,040
Like, first pull.

1346
01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:05,880
I'm just like, screw that.

1347
01:22:06,040 --> 01:22:10,950
Dumping every single cooldown.
I have just the pull party a lot,

1348
01:22:10,950 --> 01:22:11,390
dude.

1349
01:22:11,390 --> 01:22:15,030
Yeah. Holy cow. We did that 10
the other day. And I walked away

1350
01:22:15,030 --> 01:22:19,110
from it just like, I was
sweating. I, like, I needed to shower.

1351
01:22:19,110 --> 01:22:22,910
Like, I'm just like, oh, my
gosh. I feel like that meme, that

1352
01:22:22,910 --> 01:22:24,950
kid, where he's just like
sitting there and he's like, his

1353
01:22:24,950 --> 01:22:27,310
face is beat red and his
sweat's dripping down his face, and

1354
01:22:27,310 --> 01:22:32,150
he's just like, oh, my gosh. I
gotta control. That's what it felt

1355
01:22:32,150 --> 01:22:35,710
like in this freaking dungeon.
Oh, man.

1356
01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:40,880
Oh, man. It's. It is the
beauty of World of Warcraft when

1357
01:22:40,880 --> 01:22:45,320
you have a game that you can
literally. This is going to be an.

1358
01:22:45,480 --> 01:22:49,240
In an ongoing theme when we
talk about World of Warcraft as well.

1359
01:22:49,800 --> 01:22:53,640
You have a game where you can
go and you can pick flowers, you

1360
01:22:53,640 --> 01:22:59,480
can. You can play with pets,
you can collect things, and you can

1361
01:23:00,280 --> 01:23:04,850
min max your character on the
other end of the spectrum to the

1362
01:23:05,010 --> 01:23:12,770
0.1% of increases in whatever
stat you pick. Pick a stat and you

1363
01:23:12,770 --> 01:23:18,530
can do that. So the game is
incredibly basic, all the way to

1364
01:23:18,530 --> 01:23:22,690
incredibly complex in every
single bullet point in between.

1365
01:23:22,690 --> 01:23:23,130
Yep.

1366
01:23:23,130 --> 01:23:27,090
And I think that's the beauty
of the game that we play.

1367
01:23:27,250 --> 01:23:31,620
I couldn't agree. I couldn't
agree more. That's basically perfectly

1368
01:23:31,620 --> 01:23:35,100
said. And, folks, this Q and
A, it just keeps going. Like, we're

1369
01:23:35,100 --> 01:23:38,100
not even done yet. And it's
just massive. Heck, we didn't even

1370
01:23:38,100 --> 01:23:42,060
get to snark this week. Like,
it's just so much to go through,

1371
01:23:42,060 --> 01:23:44,860
which honestly gives us more
to even talk about next week. But

1372
01:23:44,939 --> 01:23:46,700
you know what, folks, what
we're going to do here is we're going

1373
01:23:46,700 --> 01:23:49,140
to take a quick Commercial
break. Then we'll be back to close

1374
01:23:49,140 --> 01:23:49,820
out the show.

1375
01:23:56,470 --> 01:24:00,150
Well, hello there, neighbor.
Welcome to Mr. Grizzle's neighborhood

1376
01:24:00,230 --> 01:24:03,990
where the streets are paved
with opportunity and maybe a few

1377
01:24:03,990 --> 01:24:10,190
loose nails. Here we've got
everything you need. Slightly used

1378
01:24:10,190 --> 01:24:15,430
armor, almost fresh bread, and
a warranty that lasts well, until

1379
01:24:15,430 --> 01:24:21,430
I skip town, I'm okay. And get
off my lawn, you freeloading Murlocs.

1380
01:24:23,340 --> 01:24:27,460
Go blub somewhere else. Every
day it's the same kids stealing my

1381
01:24:27,460 --> 01:24:31,700
mailbox adventurers, using my
hedges as target practice. And don't

1382
01:24:31,700 --> 01:24:34,820
get me started on the gnome
selling knockoff gadgets across the

1383
01:24:34,820 --> 01:24:40,620
street. That one wasn't me. So
come into Mr. Grizzle's neighborhood

1384
01:24:40,940 --> 01:24:43,420
where the neighbors aren't
always nice.

1385
01:24:57,320 --> 01:25:01,880
