I recently got the WoW Legion expansion and one month of subscription (expired today). I have mixed feelings with WoW in 2018 - like nostalgia mixed with impatience.

I created my first Alliance character ever, leveled from 100 to 110, geared to iLevel 875 via world quests and dungeons with my wife. The travel system is seriously dated, with flying being restricted, long flight paths, no travel to player or fast travel (hearth stones and portals doesn't count as fast travel to me). I was playing on... See More

a PVP server and maybe 5% of my play time was spent traveling back to my corpse because of geared up players of the opposite faction killing me at flight paths, during quests etc and camping my corpse (usually in stealth or from a flying mount). The graphics are really dated even though they have improved since 2005 - just compare it with Guild Wars or ESO. The combat system still feels clunky and all my nice macros are not working because they get stuck. I'll wait and see what comes in August with the BFA expansion but I don't know if I will bite again.

I'm waiting for Classic Servers.
I Loved classic and TBC, didn't mind WotLK, but Cataclysm killed the game for me. Went back a few months ago just to check it out and it was terrible - completely revamped the skill system which made my previously unkillable PallyTank useless, and my Shammy healer a waste of time.
I don't see why so many companies have to screw with winning formulas... —

Now there's something like this called Crossout. It's in open beta, however it's kinda lonely, not actually many players are active —

Just ordered my Tribe T-shirt with $2.10 shipping to South Africa.

The T itself costs about 20$ and I'm already worried about the shipping.
I'm thinking about printing my own T shirt (if it doesn't break the code and copyrights) —

Holyyy. That's so cheap. It's like $60 shipping to western countries on our website. I gotta figure this shipping thing out. —

Had a nice laugh this morning on a typo.

Someone very senior and decent asked that I change their password for them.
They wrote it on a sticky note example Xx1234shift1234.
Standard procedure except "shift" was written incorrectly.

To avoid confusion they could've also for instance written Xx1234!@#$ or have changed the password themselves via pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del and selecting "change password". —

So interesting thing about the #CRYNERF movement:
Just from googling BC 155 58 (Bat Chatilion 155 58 Tier X tank in WoT) I can see people crying nerf in 2014 and people crying that it's useless in 2017.

My colleague and I were talking about autoloaders (tank that has effectively a clip that they can shoot through before they have to reload) and I explained the drawback of longer reloads and less damage per shot on average.

I'm all for balancing games so that players can compete on a level playing field... See More

but sometimes a nerf can be just too bad - like the anti-aircraft guns needing several shots to down a plane or being shot 5 times in the head with a sniper rifle but dying from a knife in the foot. What is your take or example where the nerf hammer have been hit too hard?

I beat this game too yesterday. I had a bit where it felt like nothing was going to happen and then I was suddenly in a spin of events and spoiler alert it got messy. —

I did attempt a root today but I think the image was bad and so it is booting into FASTBOOT > troubleshooting mode.

I am currently downloading the latest ROM for my phone in order to flash it back to stock. I will still only relax when my phone is in the OS.

ps. that pic is not of my phone - it's the phone of someone who decided to flash a Mi 5x with a Mi A1 ROM.
