Reviewing the Story of Blizzard - Play Nice: The Rise, Fall, and Future of Blizzard Entertainment
We review Jason Schreier's Play Nice. Yeah, there's a ton of stuff about Blizzard in there! Go check it out!...
This week Nick, Rei, Eric, and Kura are back to keep talking about their experiences in The War Within. Rei talks about how Order of Corrupted Souls is still getting an influx of new members but now the real test will be how the guild performs with Season 1 starting on September 10th. Rei also talks about how she is still working on the campaign. Kura and Nick talk about how easy it is to level with Kura mentioning that he has five with another character almost there.
Eric talks about getting his warlock to be raid ready and is not looking forward to the initial raid experience as his characters are undergeared. He does however love the hero talents for his warlock, especially the Diabloist spec.
Kura talks about some of the bugs he has found in game. He recounts leaving a dungeon and getting teleported to an endless ocean where he was stuck falling and could not get out. He wound up needing a guild invite to teleport him back to the game. He also talks about a bug on the last quest of the campaign that prevented him from seeing the finale cinematic.
Next, Nick and Kura talk about the recent WoWCast where they announced Patch 11.0.5 was coming which will be the big anniversary event. They talk about how the Caverns of Time are being redone, as well as the refreshed tier 2 armor being added. They mention the Classic TImewalking Dungeons being added. Also various new transmogs will be included in the game as well. They then debate if the 20% experience buff will be included in this year’s celebration as well.
Finally, they take a quick look back at episode #173 when Kurabara made a guest appearance to talk about Shadowlands.
