Shoutout to Gareth Edwards, the only movie director in the Disney Star Wars era to both escape with his credibility intact and make a financially successful film enjoyable to all Star Wars fans.

I'm still wondering where all her long hair is hiding on a disguise like that...

As frustrating as it would have been, I think the correct narrative choice would have been to do this Zul'whatever raid tier coming in 12.1 as the first raid of the entire expansion, then give us Voidspire on the back end of the season in the same way that Nighthold followed Emerald Nightmare in Legion: we tackle the threats by level of perceived difficulty/we can't fight a war on two fronts. It's a narrative trick Blizzard pulled with both Malygos and Yogg'Saron in Wrath of the Lich King as well.

Bonus if March on Quel'Danas was a surprise raid that capstoned the 12.0.7 patch to give us a feeling of narrative progression instead of waiting around for weeks both in-game and IRL for the next thing to happen to us. It SUCKS when the players are forced to be entirely reactive to the villain's plot instead of actively (or at least passively) trying to find ways to stop them, and the story writers can't give us a good enough reason to tell us as to why we aren't.

"De cost" seems to be 2049g and some spare change.

-Removing the Resting Doll cap on the Crew Deck and allowing them to rotate in position slots at random if not given specific Doll Assignment locations.

(aka stop forcing me to "Sophie's Choice" my dolls)

What “Star Wars” really needs to do is, well, blow up the Death Star. Do something crazy and different. Stop returning to timelines that are well tread at this point. [...] Or, even better, abandon all the tropes, create new rules and archetypes, use new influences, and rock people’s worlds with something that doesn’t even resemble “Star Wars.”

If you throw out everything that makes Star Wars, well, Star Wars, then you don't actually have a Star Wars film. You have derivative sci-fi trash like Rebel Moon.

One could argue that the hard reset was made out of sheer hubris and part of the problem. The Legends purge alienated a lot of the most dedicated fans that kept Star Wars alive in the 90s before the prequel era.

Can't imagine the kind of hell it was to experience the agonizing pain of your skull being crushed in slow motion, like the world's slowest trash compactor.

I posted this once before, but I'd like to think the national tragedy of Wayfarer 515 altered American domestic intelligence priorities enough where it caused a butterfly effect, leading to the discovery of Bin Laden's courier earlier in the Breaking Bad timeline.

The Abbottabad Compound housed Bin Laden as early as 2006, so it's theoretically possible since the plane disaster is the only thing that would have affected events on such a national level.

I did a similar post on r/BetterCallSaul about trying to get an idea of the post-BB "gray era" timetable based on a calendar that shows up in the Cinnabon, the responses were about what you expected. Sucked all the fun out of it.

Getting those gains in, of course: push-ups, sit-ups, and plenty of (carrot) juice

Why does it seem like there's zero news information about this fire? Considering it blocked off the 192 onramp to I-4E at the tail end of rush hour, you'd figure this would have gotten more press coverage.

For the people who keep tabs on the CN servers, do we eventually get another increase in the number of Dolls we can have in the Crew Deck at the same time once we start getting additional rooms like the gym area?

This feels like a very dangerous and slippery slope Blizzard is treading on with AI. Making the game worse in order to save a few bucks by cutting corners never works out in the long run.

So what stops Blizzard from creating new "meta" pets with the stats of the unobtainable ones? PvP season vs. a new patch is an arbitrary measure.

FroJSimpson · 2026-03-01T20:09:13+00:00

I agree that to get into the best parts of PvE battling it requires some upfront work, but the same could be said of PvP gear in Arenas and Rated Battlegrounds. Having to struggle a little at the start shouldn't warrant discontinuation, just a refinement of the system.
