Man I *really* miss this version of the Alliance. They have just not had the same energy with them since Varian died, unfortunately.
I definitely need to do this on Horde too to see the Garrosh version.

I feel like Blizzard needs some kind of internal lore memo to determine if fel usage is illegal in Silvermoon or not, because it is entirely contradictory from one quest to another lol

I've been holding off on this one, I can't tell if I want this to be a serious questline about murlocs being genuine threats to trolls or a joke, I am fine with either lol

Zul'Aman quest today, a love triangle story between three trolls. I assume you'll get to choose which one you think is a better choice at the end, which will be fun.

I need it to be known that if we do get Tinkers in The Last Titan, I will become their ultimate stan.
I will become a top Tinker player in high end content and make XxGelbinxx alts and nitpick every last bit of the class during testing, it is *the* class I most want for WoW.

My new favorite raid achievement is Of Mice and Manaforges, because it lets me wield a magic mouse as a weapon

This time it's a return to Sunstrider Isle to help *other* blood elves start their questing journey.

Replaying this questline really is reminding my why Wrathion is one of my favorite characters in fiction.
The voice acting does such a good job at emphasizing the *burden* he feels as the last of his kind, with all the responsibility, shame, pride, everything that comes with it.

At risk of clowning myself before we see the max level campaign, I think Midnight is excelling at the *scale* of the inter-factional friendships that form.
Instead of entire political groups becoming friends, it's returning to *individuals* becoming friends despite the divide.

2025 was a weird one. It was absolutely awful for the world, but I've had a lot of positive growth in my personal and professional life going into the new year.
I wish I could say 2026 looks better for the world lol, but I at least hope it's better for everyone individually.

Blizzard has now added this shield to the Cata Timewalking vendor, specifically naming it after rangers.
I must know what this is for.

It somehow took me ten years to realize that Lei Shen and Hanzo are both voiced by Paul Nakauchi. Legendary voice, he's got.

Legion Remix is an enabler for my alt habits, it's way too easy to come up with concepts and immediately have them at max level

Okay so after replaying Zul'Aman on the beta... I can think of one way that Vol'jin can work now.
What better person to help pull Zul'jan away from a path towards villainy than *the* character who has grappled with what it means to be a troll and worship the loa?

Day later, Astre shows up in the Voidstorm hub!
They sell a new version of Hieron's tea with Sedona's addition, which lets you redo your own player moment at any time.

BIG VOIDSTORM SPOILERS just to be safe lol
Turns out there is a follow-up to this! You get to return the journal we find to Astre, who was his lover, not just a friend.

I will say though, it stings a bit to see the Man'ari sub-race customization getting such consistent mention, meanwhile Darkfallen don't have a single acknowledgement in *the* Quel'thalas expansion from what I've seen lol

That said, I do think that Wrath is probably the most likely candidate for Midnight’s Remix.
Huge xpac with tons of cosmetics on a very centralized continent, and it reminds people of all of Northrend’s story (especially Storm Peaks) ahead of The Last Titan.

On the topic of Remix, I don't think TBC *or* WoD have nearly enough endgame content to justify their own full Remix.
...but what if Blizzard did them together? Frame it as the Infinites exploring the whole timeline of Draenor, and the effects of the changes between TBC and WoD.

Instead of rushing through it at the start of Remix, I figured I would properly replay Suramar for the first time since it came out in 2016, so I made a fitting Highborne mage character for the sake of immersion.
Expect a lot of gushing about Suramar over the next few days lol
