I took a bit of a break from World of Warcraft when the Activision-Blizzard lawsuit from California's DFEH happened -- while I still believe in supporting the dev team and I still enjoy WoW as a game, I needed some time away from it and also there were other games I was playing anyway.

Is the fact that we still don't have player housing a case of something the World of Warcraft team just doesn't want to do?

Look, I'm very excited about the new Mage Tower and I think it's great that we're getting new cosmetic rewards for doing it again in Legion Timewalking.

One thing the Diablo series has always been hit or miss on is story -- there are some amazing moments in all three of the current games, but some real clunkers too, and I'm still mad that Leah just gets her body stolen and presumably her soul sent to the Burning Hells and we never do anything to help her or even find out for sure if there's anything left of her.

I keep thinking about how, from the end of Legion and into Battle for Azeroth we added ten playable races to World of Warcraft and nobody batted an eye.

I've been thinking about this one for a while -- with timewalking basically extending the life of various dungeons in World of Warcraft almost indefinitely, there's a lot of cool stuff in there, and it scales up to level -- what if we could run old raids with a group of five players and get loot scaled for the current expansion, perhaps even run those raids as Mythic+ dungeons?

With the tantalizing possibility of the Mage Tower returning during Legion Timewalking, I immediately started thinkng about other gameplay elements that were once big and which fell out of favor in later World of Warcraft expansions.

On the patch 9.1.5 PTR, we're seeing a change that many expected -- the Eredar city formerly called Mac'Aree is now named Eredath.

Do you read or watch tie-in media?

With every new expansion, our cast of supporting characters changes a bit.
