Breakfast Topic: The most boring WoW stream ever
I've been toying with the idea of streaming some of my WoW playing and taking the time to converse with readers, have fun, and relax. It soon dawned on me, however, that I don't exactly do the most excited things in World of Warcraft these days. Aside from Raid Finder and Molten Core for a potential Thunderfury, my gaming consists of coming up with transmog outfits, running old dungeons, and praying for more mounts. Suddenly, it dawned on me -- my WoW stream would be the most boring stream ever to anyone who doesn't enjoy the aspects of the game that I do. Archaeology streaming? You bet. Watch me clear Molten Core in 15 minutes while listening to AC/DC? It's gonna happen. Spending 20 minutes staring at MogIt? Probably more than you think! If someone was standing behind you, watching you play WoW over your shoulder, would they be engaged? Would they find what you were doing boring? Are your experiences in-game worthy of an audience these days or are you happy in archaeology town, like me?
Breakfast Topic: Are you a fan of watching streaming beta content?
Back in 2004, I was enthralled with beta streams of World of Warcraft, a new massively multiplayer online role playing game from Blizzard Entertainment, famous for StarCraft, Diablo II, and Warcraft III. I distinctly remember the first stream that I ever watched of a human warlock running through Redridge with his Voidwalker in tow. Soon after, I got into the beta and never had to watch another stream again. The beta stream bug had bitten me, though. From then on, I was all about watching beta streams of games that I couldn't get my hands on yet. What about you? Are you a fan of beta streaming? Would you rather play than watch? How do you scratch the itch if not by watching new content?
