Holiday

Maybe it's just because World of Warcraft is a 14-year-old game and Overwatch and Heroes of the Storm are much newer, but it feels like WoW could definitely learn a few things from its younger siblings when it comes to in-game holiday events.

In my opinion, Hallow's End has been a casualty of the increasing hostility between the Horde and the Alliance since Cataclysm. In particular, the holiday suffers from two problems -- a tendency toward stagnation and a removal of its in-game cultural significance that renders it effectively meaningless.

So Hallow's End is done but you still crave some macabre goodness.

There's a tradition of sorts with holidays in World of Warcraft.

So it's Brewfest.

That's right: Love is about to fall out of the air and, I presume, go back to wherever it usually is.

In my family, it's a holiday tradition to get together on Boxing Day. We get comfy, preferably in some new jammies, eat a few different warm soups, and play with all the cool loot Santa gave us. This year, it seems like a good time to share all the holiday traditions, new and old, Blizzard brought to us this holiday season.

In my experience playing WoW really suffers over the holidays.
