Warlords Of Draenor

There's a constantly shifting line in my head between games being something fun I engage in for stress relief or a dopamine hit and games being a checklist of tasks I have to complete.

World of Warcraft has been out since 2004.

I'll be up front -- I thought the Mission Table was the best innovation in Warlords of Draenor. Now, many years later, the news that it won't be in Dragonflight fills me with a kind of joy I wasn't aware I was capable of feeling -- a boisterous, almost terrifyingly primal exultation, like unto that you would expect to feel just before you started singing and a musical number just sort of happens.

The idea of 'class fantasy' in World of Warcraft has been bandied about longer than the actual terminology for it, which gained prominence during Legion.

In recent interviews regarding the next expansion to World of Warcraft, Dragonflight, Ion Hazzikostas confirmed that there would be no new version of the Mission Table.

This month -- the 19th, to be exact -- we're expecting a World of Warcraft expansion announcement.

The announcement of Shadowlands getting a Season 4 is a fascinating attempt to provide players with something new in that period after all the content has been released, but before we get the next expansion.

If you're a transmog fiend, it's okay, you're among friends here -- there's no shame in wanting pretty outfits.

When discussing transmog farming in World of Warcraft, "best" is of course a relative term. That being said, literally every raid has at least a few interesting items that are worth exploring and collecting.

Remember Pepe, the cute bird that WoW players first became obsessed with back in 2014 and 2015?
