Warcraft

In another episode of Blizzard teasing us with things we probably can't have, dances have been added to the new Mechagnome race that we encounter on Mechagon Island.

May 11th was the 14th anniversary of the most iconic early World of Warcraft video, where Leeroy Jenkins runs right through the middle of a carefully calculated plan.

Mechagon Island is coming in patch 8.2, but it won't be like a standard zone.

While the bones of the Eastern Plaguelands have mostly stayed the same, the details of the Eastern Plaguelands have changed a lot.

It turns out you all blow 1,603,044g a year on "nonessential" things like flight paths and armor repair.

As Blizzard and other game studios push further and further into gaming as a social activity with group finders and random grouping, I grow profoundly and deeply anti-social and I play video games to avoid interacting with strangers.

World of Warcraft is a vast game, both in terms of the scale of the world and the breadth of content it offers.

In patch 8.2, we'll finally be able to fly — and that includes the new zones we'll be going to.

Update: Patch 8.2 now has an official release date!

Even if you're avoiding spoilers, you still probably know the basic outlines of what's coming in patch 8.2 -- Queen Azshara's Naga are attacking the world and we're going to Nazjatar, there's a new kingdom of steampunk Gnomes called Mechagon and we're going there too, and, oh yeah, all that stuff that happened in 8.1.5 has repercussions in the War Campaign.
