Patch 8.3 and how we gave N’Zoth everything he ever wanted
I've been thinking a lot about what N'Zoth fate in patch 8.3 means for World of Warcraft going forward.
Complexity-Limit spent 257 million gold on their push to N’Zoth World First
When you think gold in World of Warcraft, maybe you think in terms of tokens, or in terms of game time, or even in terms of the most expensive current mount in the game, the five-million-gold Brutosaur.
What race/class combinations does WoW still not have that you want?
For me there are quite a few race/class combos that World of Warcraft has never embraced that I've always wanted.
How much should player feedback impact the design of World of Warcraft?
One of the critiques I've seen of Battle for Azeroth's gameplay and systems is that the criticism offered of the Legendary items and Artifacts from Legion was overly influential, while there was little time for player feedback on systems like Azerite Armor or, more recently, Corruption and Corrupted gear.
What would you change about your favorite class or spec?
I've wanted Titan's Grip tanking for World of Warcraft since the talent was introduced (back when it was a talent) during Wrath of the Lich King, to the point where I actually did tank with it, back when you could viably tank as a Arms or Fury Warrior as long as you dipped 10 to 20 points in Protection.

You now have twice the chance to get a mount in Mythic Dazar’alor and Ny’alotha (maybe)
Mounts are one of the most fun things in World of Warcraft, and if you're in a guild that's routinely killing Mythic N'Zoth -- so, like, maybe 200 or so people at most right now -- you may be excited to find out that Blizzard was supposed to hotfix Mythic N'Zoth to drop not one, but two Ny'alotha Allseer mounts.
We may finally be getting that Diablo Netflix anime series, with an Overwatch chaser to boot — emphasis on “may”
I've been writing posts about potential Diablo anime series coming out on this site for literal years now.
What’s the best battleground in World of Warcraft history?
Before I make you all freak out by saying Strand of the Ancients is the best battleground in the history of World of Warcraft -- a statement I don't actually believe, to be clear -- let's talk about why battlegrounds are fun.
