WoW Moviewatch: What Have You Done?
What Have You Done? is a fairly old movie; we featured it about three years ago. I had it brought back to mind this morning when I found myself in the mood for some old-fashioned boy angst rock. Nothing expresses the inner turmoil of a video game blogger like angry rock vocals and electric guitars. That being said, I'm impressed how Keyra's video is still relatively fun. Keyra confessed she used an older computer to create the video, so the raw graphics aren't great in places. But she still nails that classic metal scene of "attractive singer walks around." I know that sounds like criticism, but it's not. What Have You Done? couldn't be more rock-and-roll video classic if the characters were crouched in front of a brick wall. If you're looking for good bit of air guitar, don't miss this video. Your Livejournal poetry will thank you. Interested in the wide world of machinima? We have new movies every weekday here on WoW Moviewatch! Have suggestions for machinima we ought to feature? Toss us an email at moviewatch@wowinsider.com.
Ask WoW Insider: Wrath and the pre-60s
This week, Keyra of Farstriders has a question about a group that's been a little left out of the expansion excitement so far: midlevel folks. Here's what she is asking you, our readers:With all of the focus on Wrath, there seems to be a conspicuous absence toward those who are of lower-to-mid level and it's beginning to become irritating. Not everyone is level 65+! Some of us are still below level 40 and many of us are just starting out. So, here's my question: What can we who are mid-level expect to see from the expansion, if anything? Is it even worth the trouble to purchase since we can't benefit from the higher-level quests, items and what-not? And what would you suggest to speed our leveling so that we may enjoy what Wrath has to offer?KeyraThe fact is that most of the marquee features in the expansion pack are, yes, aimed at the higher levels. And most of the things that will affect lowbies -- Inscription, the faster leveling, and achievements, are already in the game anyway.So there are two questions here: if you're pre-60, why should you care about Wrath? Or should you at all? And Keyra also sounds like she wants leveling suggestions. My suggestion? Do quests, and lots of them. Do every quest in your log, in order, and then when you're out, go to the next town over and do all of those. The rewards will be good, it'll go as fast as leveling goes (even faster, now that Blizzard has added more XP to the mix all the way to 70), and you'll always have a clear goal: just do the next quest in your log. You might have to skip over group quests, but just keep doing quests and eventually you'll be 70 before you know it.What say you to Keyra, readers? And if you have a question you'd like to ask the (frankly, rowdy but loveable) readers of WoW Insider, just send it along ot ask AT wowinsider dot com, and you might see it up here next week.Previously on Ask WoW Insider...
