Well Here You Go

I have moved on from Warhammer for awhile if not forever but I am not done blogging.  I have decided to move blogs over to Blaze's GG.  So I am still blogging but I am moving over to a more general blogging instead of focusing on one game.  I think focusing on one game is fine but you will stop eventually.  So I am still around and I just started this thing up and will keep it updated with my exploits in all things me, which I know you all wanted.  So come on over and check it out and stay for a while.

My Gamertags

Ok since I have gotten a few emails about playing with me on SC2 and Halo Reach.  Here are the gamertags that I use for both of them.  In SC2 my name is JustBlaze.isawesome and my xbox live account name is JustBlaze7204.  So if anyone wants to play just hit me up with an email here or just message in game when I am on.  Right now I am mostly playing Halo Reach since it is only live for 2 weeks then I will get back to more SC2.

Stress

What is the most stressful thing in any MMO you have played before or for that matter any game you have played that requires co-op?  Well for me in all my MMO experience, which is just two by the way, I find the most stressful thing for me is the 7th boss of TotVL, because I am the one that has to call the colors out.  Now the first two stages are not bad for calling the colors out because you have some time to get the colors down, but when the third and fourth stage hit it gets kinda chaotic especially since I have to tank one of the adds.  I have to worry about the colors and then picking up an add as well, now that is a lot of pressure imo.  Then if someone dies on the third stage and you get to the fourth stage it adds even more because then you have to pay attention even more because the standard red to green to blue doesn't work anymore and you have to make sure two colors of the same don't touch at the end.  Its fun but still stressful.

So what are your stressful moments in any game?  It can be a story of just some fight or anything?  Lets see if I can get more than a couple comments on this.

PS I was talking to Dell Support the whole time I was typing this and they are not the sharpest tools in the shed. I told him what was wrong than had to repeat my self a couple of times just to get my point across.

Entitlement

Is everyone entitled to the end game gear in the game?  Are the casual players entitled to it?  In my opinion no casual gamers should not be able to get end game gear from any online game.  This is true for most MMOs.  WOW, FFXI, and Aion only the hardcore gamers get the end game gear and not the causals.  WAR is different and I don't know if that is a good thing or not.  Causal gamers in WAR can easily obtain Sov. Gear supposedly the best gear in the game.  They can experience the endgame content very easily especially with this new patch coming out and the new city instance.  From what I read every instance will get to stage 3 no matter what.  They are making the end game not very hard at all.

When I first came to WAR and MMOs in general I thought end game is only for the hardcore players and WAR was no exception in the beginning.  When the King was first killed I think it was 6 or so months after release and it took like 12 hours of playing just to kill him.  Now I think 12 hours is a little rough and it needed to be lowered down, but nowadays it is to accessible to all in my opinion.  I want it to feel like an accomplishment when we down the endgame instead now it is just whoever can get a warband together will down him.  I don't feel this is right and shouldn't be right.  Casuals are not entitle to easy gear but that is what they have right now.  Anyway just my 2 cents.

Oh and I was wrong in my other post about city changes.  You can bring in you warband I was just reading wrong.

New City Changes

Well yesterday Andy from Mythic release the notes from the city changes and I have to say that I like most of the things that he posted especially the Player Champions.  I find that to be pretty cool.  With that being said, I don't like that you the most you can get in there as a group is a 6 man.  I don't like that the other 3 groups will be random and you could get screwed over big time with who you get in your warband.  I just find it funny that Mythic is catering to the casual players with this new city.  I also don't like that both sides can earn high end gear from either defending or invading. I feel that the high end gear should only be earned if you invade the opposing realms city.  I guess we will just have to see how it goes.
