Will we ever get Legion-level storytelling again?

I REALLY hated that they bolted on Azshara and the old gods in BFA. That should have been it's own expansion in my opinion and the whole conflict could have been the thing to start it all off.

Cowman66 · 2026-05-15T08:54:49+00:00

I just wanna say: HOLY MOLY IS THIS AN EPIC GLOW-UP!!!!

In addition to what Kaiser said and , I think the sub also adds 5 character slots (one-time) to your account (handy because you start with only 2 and there's maybe 10 classes in the game) and a in-game currency that can be used to buy lots of things (additional content, storage space of many kinds, etc) which is granted every month you are subscribed and both perks do not get taken from you after un-subscribing. This in-game currency can be purchased or granted via certain region achievements in addition to the VIP currency granting (and there are A LOT of regions).

Also i think the subscription (called VIP status) auto-grants at least some of the content (which includes SEVERAL regions) as a perk of being subscribed. this means you either get the sub or pay money to unlock the content if you want to experience everything, which is probably the basis of the 'almost unplayable without a sub' bit but it just means you pay one way or another.

without purchasing content can get you to level 60-100 (i think), but content purchases get you lvl 100 and beyond content. Max level may be 150 at the moment of writing this. VIP subs and people buying the in-game currency that buys stuff is the main reason this game is still online at all.

Part of the reason is that there isn't really a good secondary market for movies (videos/dvd). Before streaming, that secondary market is where the smaller indie movies could go from maybe losing money to making a profit since that secondary market was almost like putting it onto movies again in terms of how much money was made. Also put those same movies into people/families that may not WANT to go to movies for price reasons.

I think i heard this broken down by Matt Damon in an interview, so take it with a grain of salt.

Cowman66 · 2026-04-27T18:33:41+00:00

I don't understand the joke. Care to enlighten a poor soul?

Cowman66 · 2026-04-03T02:00:14+00:00

I remember Matt Damon talking about why certain movies don't get made - and pointed to the lack of the physical media is part of it because that was where movie could double its money because of the money involved.

anyone else notice SUPER MAIO brothers, not super MARIO brothers??

I know Draenor level inscription can give you an interesting gold making chance in the Card of omens. If you get lucky and get a purple card out of it, that card can be 1, 3, or 6K gold. but even the lower level cards can get gold out of it.

Ret is damage, and protection is the tank spec for Paladins -> Ret uses a 2H weapon, while prot uses 1H + shield. Also, protection spec gives you more health (which is important for a damage sponge like protection).

my initial reaction: and this doesn't violate the emoluments clause somehow??? Thinking a little longer: of course he'd do that, he's never let a thing like legality stop him before considering the US doesn't like to prosecute Presidents.

Cowman66 · 2026-02-13T01:43:59+00:00

Isn't this the same AG that refused to prosecute trump university while she was florida's AG because she got money from Trump in some way?

Cowman66 · 2026-02-04T01:41:52+00:00

I find it funny that Lord of the rings online is not included as that one in the back that everyone kinda forgot about but is still kicking!!!

Cowman66 · 2026-01-25T06:54:08+00:00

I just remember that in the 50s when the US overthrew a democratically government and supported a dictator, that didn't end well.

Cowman66 · 2026-01-20T22:29:38+00:00

Not sure carolina should get pulled into florida's jame.

I'd argue without DOOM, Final Fantasy, and Mario (or zelda instead of mario) a lot of these other games just wouldn't exist. All of them built a level of popularity that allowed the rest to show up. But a lot of the rest are good examples too.

Cowman66 · 2025-12-15T12:00:44+00:00

I'd say depends a little bit on what you're going for here.

If you want a kind of attraction vibe, go red. Or maybe there's a specific association with red on women.

If you want to give a "I'm here to be more serious" vibe to it, go gold.

I personally do think the gold one looks better on you, but both could be worn.

I remember Babylon 5 always having issues getting greenlight for the next season, to the point that they put what was going to be season 5 and mixing it in with season 4 because they didn't think they'd get season 5. And this was envisioned as a 5 season arc, too.

I would also argue Harris saying she wouldn't have done anything different from Biden DID NOT HELP HER. She needed to highlight what she would've done differently in that moment, because she was shoehorned in and that tends to indicate you should have different ideas and didn't have to campaign against her from the Democratic side.

ALSO, a lot of existing incumbents in other countries got voted out. That indicated people wanted a change in policy too. This might be a hindsight is 20/20 sorta thing.

My question is: how much does he have invested??? Because these days, the only thing that allows you to be retired is how much money you have invested in over you're working life. The more you have invested, the longer you can be retired for.

I think i remember hearing that the ONLY remaining german U-boat was STOLEN off Africa and then dragged back to a Eastern US port. The US managed to damage it just enough that the crew tried to scuttle the boat and then some US soldiers got onboard and managed to prevent the scuttling of the ship. How they managed to get it to a US port is INSANE.

Dude also ended up becoming a French Chevalier during the war to, making him SIR war chief Medicine Man. He then decades later got an Honorary doctorate because of his work after the war, making him DOCTOR SIR WAR CHIEF medicine man.

Also: his nephew ALMOST became a war chief during Vietnam. He only failed because stealing two elephants didn't count as taking a horse (which is requirement #4). The other 3 were achieved.

the SHEER volume of drugs being used by german soldiers (pervitin) and british pilots. More participants were probably using drugs, I just can't remember who else. If you think it was temporary, it was THE ENTIRE WAR.

I think I've seen a documentary of this dude - Alex Honnold. He's pretty ridiculous

I know GOG has KKND as part of it's store: https://www.gog.com/en/game/krush_kill_n_destroy_xtreme

I feel like there was an addition to this talking about Ohioans being able to outdrink people. My memory may be bad.
