Damn MMO's really do be copying each other's homework ahahaha - ESO launched Overland Difficulty recently (Update 50) - WoW has been experimenting with Heroic Overland (Legion Remix & Naigtal/Val) - SWTOR introducing Difficulty Modes (Overworld & Story(?) content) at end of year (8.0)

My Trophy Display has once again been updated! My Guild was finally able to get enough people on to down Lura in Heroic! So I now have AOTC Heroic for all 3 raids in Midnight! And I was TOP DPS (just) as an Affliction Warlock hehe! So pumped! #wow #worldofwarcraft

Okay seriously though. This same shit keeps happening over and over in WoW socials. Something comes out in the PTR. Folks don't like it (it really doesn't matter if its right or wrong) Some folks take it way too far and start harassing in DM's or make some threats (even jokey ones)

While I was checking our messages today I noticed a private message from a former ZOS employee, reaching out to us to thank us, and to say they used our site everyday. On the same day they were laid off they took the time to reach out to us, because they truly cared about The Elder Scrolls. 1/2

So ZeniMax had a layoffs last year and now they’re laying off half the team this year? What the hell Microsoft? What the hell?!??!!?! Things were starting to pick back up again too with ESO. Absolutely heartbroken for all the folks who lost their jobs. 😞

A list of people we know who have been laid off at ZOS and Bethesda: ZOS Community Manager Gina Bruno Lead Dungeon Director Mike Finnigan Writer Designer Andrew Siañez-De La O Writer Designer Julianna Comstock Senior Writer Designer Jeff Grubb Project Art Director Marc Hudgins 1/many

Looks like The Elder Scrolls Online just fired half their team, despite record profits and massive renewed interest in the game. Microsoft is a truly incomprehensible, horrible entity. There has to be some way we can fight these maniacs.

The housing stuff coming in 12.1 is looking good. But #WoW housing is still lacking basic tools such as an Undo button and a Group decor together option. The undo button has saved me sooo many times in ESO and being able to group decor together makes rearranging rooms so much easier. #wowhousing

I’m aware of some of the 12.1 spoilers eg. a certain dungeon boss. But I was reserving judgement until actually playing the story. But I’m guessing people have found further details in the datamining hence the death threats against devs? Sigh it sucks but death threats are lame as hell.
