The Lawbringer: My final thoughts on Blizzard
Pop law abounds in The Lawbringer, your weekly dose of WoW, the law, video games and the MMO genre. Mathew McCurley takes you through the world running parallel to the games we love and enjoy, full of rules, regulations, and esoteroic topics that slip through the cracks. There is a lot to be said about Blizzard, the scrappy little company founded more than 20 years ago because hey, why not? A bunch of guys liked video games, graduated from UCLA, and borrowed money from their grandmas. Eventually, Blizzard became the game company we know today, a powerhouse in the industry with no signs of slowing down. World of Warcraft is resting comfortably at around 10 million players, StarCraft is still a national sport in Korea, and Diablo III has pierced the hearts of gamers who would have never picked up a click-and-slash. Today is my last day at WoW Insider, and you've probably already read the sappy goodbye [Editor's Note: Actually, it'll be up at 8pm EDT]. Whatever. We've still got columns to write, people. For my last Lawbringer, I want to share with you a little bit about what made this column special to me and why your support turned this column from an idea into something widely read, as well as my hopes for Blizzard in the future. I cannot thank you all enough for letting me have my soapbox and a place to rant.
Breakfast Braggosh Adventures: Braggosh goes to the Darkmoon Faire
Braggosh decided to go to the Darkmoon Faire and have a sandbox adventure. Check out the thrilling footage above. Darkmoon Faire Island has been out for many months now, and we've grown accustomed and used to the place. This morning, I finally got my first Pit Fighter trinket and realized that I still really love the Faire. Since it only comes around for a certain amount of time per month, the experience is still fairly new each time. I've gotten into a nice routine for the Faire where I never forget my flour for the cooking monthly and know my routes. I've gotten bullseyes on the cannon for three Faires in a row. How are you still liking the Faire? What changes do you think Blizzard can make to the Faire that might create some more buzz over time? Where should Braggosh adventure next?
The Queue: Braggosh Day
Welcome back to The Queue, the daily Q&A column in which the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Mathew McCurley (@gomatgo) will be your host today. It's apparently Braggosh Day here at WoW Insider, where I just keep getting articles scheduled and keep including pictures of my orc warrior Braggosh as the title image. Enjoy. Twowolves asked: 1. Do beta mobs drop loot? I'm curious about the Cata to MoP stat jump. Although I hate having to wait until 80 to leave Northrend, the Cata gear that becomes available at 77 provide a crazy power and survivability boost. 2. Do we indeed have to wait until 85 to enter Pandaria? 3. Aside from monk, what other class do you think will be a big hit with the panda crowd?
