Content vs Consumption: The lie behind the spin.

Content vs Consumption: The lie behind the spin.

Click it to get the original size graphic! Update: Forgot to include the Pandaren starter zone, so that takes Mists up to 11 zones! The Infographic says it all. I may have to take another run at those Wrath figures, because they do seem a tad high, despite the fact

Mythic Difficulty: Mythic failure?

Mythic Difficulty: Mythic failure?

So, looking at the stats released by MMO Champion it looks like Mythic Raiding has been an abject failure in terms of participation numbers. A few days ago I guesstimated that Mythic was catering to between 2 to 5% of the player base. Looks like that estimation was absolutely right

#NoFlyNoSub #BringBackFlying

#NoFlyNoSub #BringBackFlying

The 2 tags that defined my weekend :P And Wow. The last few days have been a flurry of activity on the website, all over the no-flying announcement by Watcher. Not least there was a real spike in site traffic over the weekend and the first half of this

Removing Flight in WoW: Why it's suicidal by Blizzard.

Removing Flight in WoW: Why it's suicidal by Blizzard.

So it happened. Blizzard, via Ion Hazzikostas (AKA Watcher) finally admitted that flight won't be returning. Not just in WoD, oh no. That would be bad enough. But the big news here, and the one that has the players up in absolutely riotous arms at the moment is:

Warlords has lost 3m subs in 3 months... WoW

Wow. Not the game, just pure unadulterated astonishment. Wow. 3 Million subscribers in 3 months since the last subs call. Thats....amazing, and not in a good way. If you want the full details straight from the horse's mouth, you can get the press release here (pdf), (update:

On the hunt...

On the hunt...

So, given that WoD is universally agreed as being dull as all hell, I've taken to getting my hunter geared for raiding purposes. This is usually something I don't do until towards the end of an expansion, until no more gear is on the horizon for

WoW Needs New Content ASAP! (YouTube Video)

And this should be a very nice 60fps for Chrome Users, more noticeable once you get into the D3 footage! Plus, new Intro to go with the tweaked branding!

Pillars of Eternally writing Sheet Music

I'm really enjoying Pillars of Eternity so far. The storyline appears very interesting, pretty Planescape-ish in tone, and the classes seem good and varied. As per the video, the class I chose for my first game was a female Moon Godlike Priest, and whilst she's

Warlords: Where did it all go wrong?

It all looked so good, so full of promise, wonder and nostalgia. However, Warlords has sadly proven the old Heraclitus quote that you can "never step into the same river twice". The Big Whimper of a L-L-L-L-Launch The expansion started off with a whimper.

Drama-llama-ding-dong

So the past 3 weeks has been pretty bloody stressful, with guild drama upon guild drama meaning I quit Thunder. The 2 weekends before last (one of which was even after I'd quit) were very difficult, and saw us bleed members for a short while. A lot of
