Adventures Outside Azeroth

I have returned, and while my drunken attempts to do some spelunking with GQ models (the female variety) were unsuccessful this past weekend, apparently "you're really pretty" followed with "I'm radikal, you've probably read my PvP blog, I'm a pretty big deal" does not make women go all Emperor's New Clothes, I have had some time to think about sweet, sweet World of Warcraft. And yes, that sentence was a bit too long, but then again so is my dick. See that was subtle and clever and tasteful. Full of fucking taste bitches.

I was watching porn (straight thank you very much) on my iPhone on the subway (which I ride to keep in touch with the plebs) and while the action seemed to arouse interest from the FOB looking Chinese girl nearby, I'm well aware associating with THOSE people can lead to WoW account foreclosure, and besides, her hands were nowhere near small enough to farm gold quickly or make me feel gigantic, I couldn't help but feel terribly bored without the lavish attention I've become accustomed to with my WoW stardom. Nine million players, people. I literally hear the crowd's applause outside my windows every time I log into WoW. I can't disappoint them.

I'd like to briefly shout out to another e-hero, Azael, now Azazael formerly of GameOver. He's quickly found his way towards the top of BG9 after transferring a few days ago and joining up with BOP NOW. Now I personally don't attach much value to his success what with him being a warlock and all, but apparently there do remain some players who value their accomplishments, and unbiased and fair analysis is what I do here on this site. Many other FH PvPers have expressed interest in transferring alts to BG9 for some "casual" arena in between their serious matches on Stormstrike. I've done my best to convince them to not waste their time against teams who wouldn't be 1400 on BG5, but I do understand that when the competition on our battlegroup is so intimidating, it's perhaps wise to move to a more "casual-friendly" environment.

I haven't said anything about my love, Dahis, leaving WoW because the loss has left me eating pints of Hagaen Dazs watching When Harry Met Sally and You've Got Mail over and over again. I wrote a lengthy post detailing my thoughts on what his departure will mean to the game; Okay, that's a lie. I used a crayon and a napkin and wrote "WHY DID YOU LEAVE YOU WHORE" on it over and over again. Okay, it was blood and not crayon. But I wrote stuff. Words. From the heart. Don't think you're going to just log back online someday and it's going to be all "You had me with 'hello'" either, I'm tough, I can do just fine on my own. Rocky road is fucking delicious.

Now, you might think I'd be bitter what with my friends and teammates all leaving me to go play on BG9, but you're a faggot and I hate you for even thinking that. Sometimes, relationships don't work. I get that. People want different things. I want a girl who, when we have children, will pierce her nipples to increase the chance that our child will have metallic superpowers like Ironman or Magneto. She should like spiders too and not go totally clean-clean all the time. She should like to sw--I've derailed. Arena PvP is likely on the way to becoming a silly gearing up thing unless there are significant changes to make the system more enjoyable and competitive. That isn't doom and gloom, but most people I know lose interest pretty quickly after the first (heh) few weeks once the rewards diminish. I'm not going to moralize on the "right" way to play arena, but it's silly to get too frustrated over something so inevitable. <3

I used to hate the whole PVP blogger turning emo, joke or not, but this stuff is way too funny not to read.

depredate said...

You been checking out Huxley videos rad?

Raddy said...

Yeah, I'll almost certainly play -- it looks crazy awesome. Although, ultimately, it comes down to how many of my friends end up playing.

"it's silly to get too frustrated over something so inevitable."


That, right there, is the very essence of truth. Even though made the post in jest, it's grounded in reality.

It's sad, however, that these things are, as you say, inevitable.

Pullitzer stuff if you ask me!

Funny but as others have said sad. Do you think that even with rated battleground players will last until lich king?

Sidde said...

btw: im tirred out getting kicked in the nuts by holy priests! Maybe put out a guide on how to beat them?
I do all the dirty tricks - running out of range from manaburn, iceblocking manaburn but in about 5 min he has got me oom anyways. Some tips on holypriests would be pro plx.

There is no way to repay you for the gutbusting laugh this entry produced...which is probably also what she said :)

Lorr said...

oh god I couldn't stop laughing.

Abuse the priest's LOS w/ a pillar to avoid mana burns. When polymorph comes off DR, poly him and start drinking. You can drink more easily than he can, just try to avoid getting your pet feared at the same time as you.

If huxley doesn't suck from technical issues such as lag and being too hard on any but the top end systems then it will defenitely suck up alot of PvPers.

Anonymous said...

I really don't see how Huxley can work in the long run. It's still just an Unreal based frag fest. Occasionally you can run to a city and buy armor so you look pretty while fragging, then you go back to fragging. The website doesn't answer too much either. Since it is based on the new Unreal game it will require a top end DX10 system to get the full benefit out of the game. I don't see too many going over to this unless it can beat out Hellgate.

Unclesam said...

RandomMage: Any news on the damage tax?



Drysc: Obliterated. Damage coefficient reduction removed from Improved Fireball/Frostbolt.

YAY

Raddy said...

Yeah I've very psyched about the changes. They're a great start especially some of the other classes' stuff. The PvE changes make me miss PvE. LOL.
