We found a way to make new guys in World of Warcraft.

Double-checked just to make sure & yep, toons I rolled made it safely to RP-PvE. Maybe I'll try out RP-PvP at some point, will definitely play Hardcore once it launches later on down the roadmap. In the meantime, see you all on Nov. 4... soooon

Hello sea creatures, I bring you greetings from Roleplay Ruleset! 🍎 • Expy of the Archmage from Elder Scrolls • Badass Hunter with a talent for working on steam tanks • Villain Warlock born to dominate the world, forced to aid Azeroth Now I go for a nap. 💤

Unfortunately, some names were taken before I could get to them I will be prepared for 4ever's Hardcore launch, which I hope will have a reservation with less server woes

Made the great mistake of exiting out my client instead of just waiting patiently for the rulesets to open up from my end, because I'm not a patient dude & idk how anything works. It is looping constantly between the queue and a dc error

I highly doubt that the 4ever names I want will be taken because most of them require ball knowledge, but I still see rulesets greyed out and several people successfully reserve names... LEMME IN!!!!

The bot hivemind here is going absolutely crazy today. I can't wait to see the evil swarms I witnessed during the bird app days of 2020 just reach full circle 6 years later and there's no safe place to retreat from the Borg assimilating all humans into its ranks

World of Warcraft Forever has its full launch a week from now on November 4, but ahead of time, Blizzard principal game designer Kris Zierhut shared a little bit of insight on why the new Skyborne race was added to the game. https://bit.ly/4irlYJB

Looks like the play button for 4ever finally got unlocked on my end, you can start logging in for the name reservation but rulesets are greyed out for the time being. Officially it's supposed to happen in the next hour, but some people got logged in way earlier than that

The blue gem decision in midnight gets more strange every time they introduce a belf into a new video or image and they have a choker embedded with a green gem, a belf spellbreaker with green gems, belf customziations with green gems, belf heritage armor with green gems, belf prop kits 2 expacs ago.

Meanwhile, my velf in her fantasy land because they introduced midnight season 1's outdoors sets with a purple/gold palette she just can't have decor/citzen mogs with those colors. And Murder Row, the faction you'd think would offer the original belf palette, has the blue/silver mogs

I WOULD LOVE TO GET THE NEW HOUSING STUFF. BUT I HAVE TO AGREE, THIS GOES AGAINST WHAT WAS ORIGINALLY SAID. KUL'TIRANS ARE A PLAYABLE RACE AND ITEMS THAT ARE RELATED TO THEM SHOULD BE AVAILABLE FOR PLAYERS TO GET OUTSIDE OF GAME STORE.

The Horde team we see in this AMV are the same ones we see in the new credits art for Forever, I love that little bit of continuity. (also guess it answers which side the Skyborne Druid picks lol)

Horde. Alliance. War. Nov 4. Pick your side of the story and fight for your faction when WoW: Forever launches! blizz.ly/4susCmW

The slow descent to madness for WoW's housing when first the pink tax (sell 🌸-themed house) happens, and now a whole race culture's house (Kul Tiran tidesage) happens 🤪 Capitalism hard at work

Reminder to make sure you're selecting the right wow license you put your digital 4ever stuff on at checkout! That will allow you to preinstall the game for the impending name reservation coming up soon today. Also select the non-beta wow 4ever.

The history of machine-translated video game mods is interesting. It is much like the uncontrollable monster that eventually gave rise to slop. The same reason why using a machine-translation on wikis was/is frowned upon, and there's a preference for knowing who is at high level for a language etc.

Anyhoo, something fascinating to me before the rise of this nonsense is the GTA series' presence in Russia. You have the PS2 & PC, but San Andreas was never available with Russian subs till much later on. Only by unofficial means could it get there with the help of the webs.

Therefore, bootleg was the only option and the oldest translation is known for having all-caps Cyrillic and lots of memes with missing the context of original dialog. If you know where to look, "meme old localizations" is a whole genre of its own to cover for videos

On wikis it was serious business after all, ppl wanted authenticity in translations by default of course. The same guy back then pushing a lazy machine translation on articles everyday is the same guy on my YT feed normalizing a PC recomp that you look inside the repo of and see cl*ude is the author

I've watched so many dashcam vid comps on YT over the years that if I don't instantly ace the driving lesson I will take in the future because I learned what NOT to do, it's the ultimate failure & shame for me

thinking about stealing fire from the gods. a hot take

Bleach anime reaching its conclusion now is crazy, them Toonami days of watching that show finally have reached the end. Need the time machine back to my fav library & Adult Swim's best era badly!
