They were basically a WC3 plot point. They barely had any importance in early WoW at all aside from some stupid Scarlet Crusade shit.
Old Gods business I love and all but they're really diluting it with a new one every expansion, especially considering we didn't even get to meet the last two at all and they're basically done with.
Azshara is alive(always has been) and still is the queen of the Naga.
Some of the Nathrezim have been 'hidden' for a long time, but dreadlords in general are a known entity for pretty much everyone, and I don't think it would be hard to bring them out and get some hype with a story involving them, especially since it also means clear movement towards fighting the core of the Burning Legion. The major Nathrezim still alive are at the tip top of the BL hierarchy.
N'Zoth seems to be being pushed as basically the second most powerful and evil thing in the entire universe, and some think when it's all said and done Blizzard may be pushing to make him the mastermind behind basically everything, including Sargeras' corruption. He corrupted Azshara, Deathwing, the Emerald Dream, and is not imprisoned like the other old gods we've encountered(C'Thun and Yogg). It's 100% confirmed that the old gods were at war with eachother, and we unknowingly helped take out his competition while he keeps slumbering and gaining strength. We're definitely not done with them(him), that much I'm certain of, even if Blizzard isn't hitting us over the head saying it over and over.

When at first mention of a game you go on a tirade listing off how it will fail like every other mmo that isn't WoW.(whatever definition of fail you want to go with because hey I'm fairly certain the folks in GW2 would find your definition of failure hilariously misinformed) That is strait up by the definition of the word pessimism.
TOR is doing pretty well now, actually. Also, people that act like WoW isn't in decline are fooling themselves.
WoW has been 'in decline' for like 5 years, and then sets another record at every xpac launch, and then is back in decline again. Now, the post-launch dropoff is getting larger every time, but MoP still stabalized at like 6 or 7 mil subscribers for most of its lifespan didn't it?
I think a large part of it is just the genre in general kind of fading out with the rise of other platforms(hello Dota2 and LoL, the massive rise of indie gaming), but it's probably also because Blizzard is holding their 'trump card' of remaining major lore characters a bit too long in my opinion, hoping to use it as a recovery tool when the game is truly teetering.
Kind of hard to set new records down 4-5 million. WoW's population has literally cut in half since Cataclysm.
The really screwed themselves when they didn't release as much content in Cata as the previous expansions had in content. And it was of lower quality. The fights had more mechanics, which isn't easy to think up, but still, I think you could pay a mad man to scream ideas and you'd get something you could use.

If the first thought you have after purchasing any item is, "I hope I don't regret it", I think something is wrong.
Eh, I'm just indecisive and finnicky as usual. I think I'm going to enjoy playing them on the tabletop and painting them for the most part. I don't think I would have enjoyed either other army as much or more. But it's fine, it's a hobby thing and I likely won't spend all too much more on them. I have other expenses coming up.

I think this everytime I buy something... even small shit like groceries.
Basically. For me, it's less like "I don't know if this was ok" and more like "I don't know if I fucked up by being stupid". That's kind of my default sometimes.
For a Fistful of Dollars For a few dollars more was very good too. The whole trilogy obviously, it's just these two have Lee Van Clee in them, and For a few dollars more even more so. Edit: I'm so bad I'm not even gonna remove it.
I tell myself "Oh boy I shouldn't have" when I get hit by consequences way more often than "Did I just fuck up?" after doing the deed.

my choices are - whatever is on netflix
go
I'm way late to the party but Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure
Is that actually a good movie? I've only heard of it because I know Steve Vai did a song for it, and he's one of my favourite guitar players. Never bothered to watch the film though, lol
The LoL subreddit is getting way too fucking big. There are 5 LoL posts on the frontpage or r/all at the moment...it's beating out all the defaults except r/funny

Can't tech or Roll a bunny hop. It's pretty dumb tbh. I think this infinite only applies to people who don't have a damage dealing UpB, so basically only Robin.
