Wrath expected in China in mid-November

Because of all the chaos (from switched providers to government approval) on China’s version of World of Warcraft, they haven’t actually had a chance to release the Wrath expansion over there yet. They were planning to bring it out ASAP, but that obviously never worked out. But we hear now, finally, that the wait is [...]

Breakfast topic: Faction fanboyism

It’s not unusual to see player speculation on what we’ll see when Cataclysm arrives, and most of us have our own private wish lists.

WoW Moviewatch: Dwarven Rifle Squad

Battlemasters: You…I Remember You. This fairly new and awesome comic is still settling [...]

Telling a story without quest text

Tyllendel’s friend had an interesting reaction to the game when he first played it: he felt that all of the quest text was unbearable, and that he wanted to play the game rather than reading what NPCs told him. We’ve talked a little bit about this before — obviously, when Blizzard kicked off WoW nearly [...]
