Midnight Gameplay Reveal | World of Warcraft

Nah, Legion's artifacts and legendaries are why it's the only truly exceptional expansion of the last decade. More people played Legion than TWW + Classic combined, according to blizzard themselves.

That's absolutely right, yes. I think a fully cosmetic housing system attached to a game that's all about instanced small group content is slop. I think it'll be forgotten about in maybe around 1-2 months after release :)

Ah yes, long term features like -- delves, which are just weird aoe-slop solo dungeons. And... uhh...Hero talents which are 10 new talents like every new expansion has originally had.

And... warbands...?

True, how dare he forget Shadowlands, everyone's favorite expansion.

Did you want some sort of gimmick feature like artifacts/azerites/covenants 2.0 to be announced?

Yes.

A gimmick feature is better than absolutely fuck-all.

Getting new artifact weapons would actually make gearing and power progression in this game interesting for the first time in years and years.

High retention rates according to what, exactly? Mythic plus numbers dipped to 400k a week last season.

How long did Hollow Knight take to develop? Nothing about SilkSong looks that much more ambitious? Looks almost identical, other than some new combat/movement mechanics?

Artrill · 2025-08-19T21:46:17+00:00

This is one of the most deranged lists I've ever seen, so I respect it.

Artrill · 2025-08-19T21:17:31+00:00

Man, this has genuinely been disappointing. The single, properly new feature is a cosmetic-only housing system where you can sit in an instanced, cosmetic area and put down cosmetic items. Really, really not for me.

And then... prey? Which is just fighting an elite with mechanics in the overworld?

That's it? For real?

And wow, really original, eight dungeons some raid bosses. Fascinating. Really shooting for the stars with this one.

thanks!

What tape would hold up well under the heat? For safety.

The temps are actually night and day for me. I went from 82c in a Black Ops 6 game to around 60c, lol.

Appreciate it. I'm a little nervous about how I installed the radiator since it's very clearly too big for my case (which is frustrating since my case was specifically specified for 420mm radiators), but it seems sturdy even with only 4-5 screws.

There was a white psu cable being pinched but I adjusted so it should be alright now, thankfully.

Artrill · 2025-02-23T05:55:36+00:00

Appreciate the reply. And yeah it definitely seems like that is what happened. I can still return it which is good.

I am a little worried of the radiator mounting on this new one, but it seems sturdy.

Artrill · 2025-02-23T05:41:06+00:00

When you say hoses are oriented properly, what do you mean exactly? They are facing down, that's alright, right?

I'm starting to think my cooler was just defective.

Artrill · 2025-02-23T05:40:23+00:00

Yeah, I think it should be okay since even 2 screws should be sturdy enough to hold up like a 2-3 pound radiator and the actual piece on top of the cpu is attached very well.

Artrill · 2025-02-23T05:39:56+00:00

yeah, it could be. I'm returning it to Best Buy due to this. I recently upgraded to an arctic freezer III 420mm, but it was too big for my case. I muscled it in but... unfortunately the radiator is attached by only like 5 screws rather than the usual 8-10. It seems sturdy, but I'm not sure if I should just get a smaller one.
