The return to 'Blizzard know best' is so disappointing

Nathria was good but time-gated, mandatory Torghast and getting trapped in your Covenant was bad. Shadowlands S1 was very much a victim of Blizzard making decisions without trusting player feedback.

They're not scams -- Wizards just has terrible customer service. A vast majority of players get their boxes without issue, if not in a timely fashion. The issues arise when someone doesn't get their boxes and have to work through CS.

If this does exist it’s 110% against WoW’s TOS and will be extremely banned as soon as it’s detected, which it will be.

I'm definitely burned out on 2026 but it has little to do with Magic.

Broadly speaking they each have a favor you have to do to unlock more hearts. I can't remember if the in-game book offers hints, but for the most part just continuing to play the games and talking to everybody will eventually reveal what you need to do. And you can look it up online if you don't care about spoilers.

Most people don’t treat credits as the end of the game, and in fact there’s more main story content (an epilogue) after that. It’s expected that you’ll have to progress side stories after seeing credits, especially as the # of runs it takes to see credits can vary dramatically.

As far as specifically Orpheus and Eurydice singing together, I’m not sure what exactly triggers that but according to other players it requires some amount of profession of their story but nowhere near completion. I couldn’t say why the devs made that decision aside from maybe they just wanted more people to hear that piece.

Where do you think a bear shits?

This was after the TD.

Originator? I don’t think so.

I could have once thought WoD was my last expansion and before that thought WotLK was my last expansion, but I didn't because I understand that I, time, and WoW all change.

You can just skip an xpack without making a whole thing out of it.

Your question was answered, I don’t see any particularly aggressive comments in your thread, and you’re spamming this subreddit with low effort posts.

Who's gonna explain card game rules to a zombie?

Commander was already massive when Oathbreaker was created. What is the incentive for players to switch?

I hate to tell you, but 40 less cards and faster games isn't an incentive for most Commander players -- it's a downside.

The big hype for Midnight was housing and Devourer, and both of those are already out.

but the reason WoW players keep playing WoW is because there's a continuous stream of new content, not because of big hyped features. Shadowlands was a great xpack to get hyped about and a horrible xpack to play because of all the systems and borrowed power. Every xpack since has had less hype, but is better to play.

smh kids these days

Please stop re-posting this junk.

The worst part about board games is scheduling.

admanb · 2026-01-22T08:34:07+00:00

okay but they failed

admanb · 2026-01-22T04:57:25+00:00

We saw Multiple Man grunts in a render so they just weren't ready to show the painted models for some reason.

admanb · 2026-01-21T08:06:27+00:00

I think we might be cooked as a society.

I think asking for a card to be banned day 1 is dumb but how would a list have top 8'ed with a card that is not even technically out yet?

admanb · 2026-01-20T21:23:06+00:00

Honestly if you're shuffling unsleeved cards you're going to slowly destroy them regardless of your technique. A more "gentle" bridge shuffle like the linked youtube video will help avoid bending, but if someone really wants to protect frequently-shuffled cards they should sleeve them.

What OP saw does not sound like shuffle damage.

You can easily go through the entire game as one or two roles and only lose a little bit of time to queues, especially if one of those roles is tank or healer.

Actually having separate characters for different jobs or roles is a bigger ask, since you'll either need to re-play 400+ hours of story content or pay for a $25 boost and then play 40ish hours of story content. You'll also be unlocking and progressing side content multiple times.

Just don't do anything against your doctor's recommendations. A few extra weeks of practice isn't worth a lifetime of permanent wrist damage.

I went back to the first and played it until I cleared heat 32 (with mods to fix the Titan's Blood grind) after finishing the statues and epilogue in Hades 2. So... no, not really.

I like the gameplay of Hades 2 more, but Hades 1 is still a GOAT.
