Me who finished up all my Remix business last night.
Finished all outstanding order halls and every hidden artifact EXCEPT disc priest cuz every time I checked the order hall for the tomes there's always at least one shadow priest (why is it always a shadow priest???) camping each spawn point! Nevermind that my priest is specced Shadow...
Thanks to Remix I have
- Completed every Order Hall Campaign
- Unlocked every Hidden Artifact Appearance for every single Artifact
- Leveled a total of 28 characters, including one of every class, one for every Heritage Armor questline, & 6 new druids
- Got all the items, including decor
Not bad!

Horde Players: Where's the Horde in TWW?

I've said it before, but IMO the best thing you can do in this franchise is get invested in your own character's story because you're insulating yourself against disappointment when there's weird stuff like this happening behind the scenes.
I swear wrathion’s list of “content removed in alpha/beta” is longer than the list of his canon appearances

I posted this table last week with a couple of errors, mostly missing Mark Gastineau. This is now fixed with Myles Garrett updated.

I missed the first quarter, watched the second quarter when things went south, and have not watched since. The Eagles have only been able to score when I'm not watching. I can't watch this team. They become unwatchable when I watch.

Blizzard needs to go full Sims with our alts. I don't just want them in my house when I log in. I want to see my guildie's alts puttering about the neighborhood while I'm flying around. Let me see them walk down the road outside while I'm futzing with whatever in my house.

These ads had way too much of an impact on how very young me expected relationships to be.
Mount Airy Lodge is the one I remember the most. I have never been to the Poconos. I was not in that tax bracket by a long shot.

What comes out first: FotOR or ME5?
Last night's biggest surprise was Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic, led by Casey Hudson, who directed KOTOR (and Anthem). Exciting news for lots of people... but Lucasfilm says the studio was founded this year, which means that 2030 is an *optimistic* guess. Maybe it'll be a PlayStation 7 game
