&lt;div&gt;{{Spoiler|Turns out, the Vault isn’t a treasure trove after all, it’s actually a sex dungeon run by a mischievous tentacle blob and Guardian Angel’ is basically just a budget Cortana knockoff from Halo}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Borderlands vs fallout.jpg|thumb|[[Fallout]] vs. Borderlands, let the retardation begin.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Borderlands&#039;&#039;&#039; is a [[sarcasm|revolutionary]] video game [[vomit|concept]]: imagine [[Halo]] and [[World of Warcraft]] having a Fetal Alcohol Syndrome lovechild at gunpoint by [[Fallout 3]], complete with randomizing mechanics straight out of Rogue. The graphics feel like the product of a bizarre experiment: take the cartoony, exaggerated style of [[Team Fortress 2]] and the outdated, jagged edges of [[PlayStation 2]] visuals, toss them into a blender, suck the last drop of innovation and originality out of them, and pour the resulting mush straight into the game. What you’re left with is a world that looks oddly familiar, but devoid of any fresh artistic spark, an uninspired mishmash that seems to have forgotten it’s in the 21st century. The result? A visual style that&#039;s both dated and recycled, with none of the charm of [[Team Fortress 2]] or the nostalgia of PS2-era games, just a hollow shell of what could have been. The characters seem to have been plucked from Killzone, Gears of War, and ‘80s slasher flicks. The whole experience is drenched in a Mad Max-esque vibe, set on a chaotic planet filled with deranged lunatics. In other words, it’s a simplified version of [[Fallout 3]] with a dash of Team Fortress 2 aesthetics and a healthy dose of bizarre design choices, as though crafted by developers in the throes of creative dementia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most players likely bought it thinking it was an expansion for Fallout 3, but instead, they were greeted with LOTS OF FREAKIN&#039; PURDY GUNZ!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite its oddities, Borderlands went on to sell [[WTF|4.5 million units]] worldwide, proving that running around with a machine gun and [[DO IT FAGGOT|shooting random pedestrians]] is apparently good for the environment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Oblivion with Guns (A.K.A. Borderlands)==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Oblivion with guns.jpg|center|450px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{quote|On the delightful deathtrap known as Pandora, a paradise teeming with charming bandits and delightful perils, there&#039;s a singular, irresistible allure: The Vault. It&#039;s the galaxy&#039;s most obvious secret, beckoning every treasure hunter, adrenaline junkie, and hopelessly clueless buffoon from across the cosmos.|Borderlands, don&#039;t forget your Pip-Boy.}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#039;s not kid ourselves. &amp;quot;Borderlands&amp;quot;? More like &amp;quot;Oblivion with Guns, Minus the Oblivion.&amp;quot; This game throws you into the boots of a mercenary who you&#039;ll probably never care about, with a backstory so thin it might as well be nonexistent. Welcome to Pandora, a planet so anarchic and godforsaken, it&#039;s basically a desert devoid of any gigantic, blue, Native American-esque aliens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Motivated by the purest form of altruism – the desire to get filthy rich – you embark on a quest to find a legendary stash of powerful alien technology hidden in a place charmingly referred to as &amp;quot;The Vault.&amp;quot; As a &amp;quot;Vault Hunter,&amp;quot; you&#039;re on a noble mission to uncover a mythical treasure trove.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Naturally, the entire game builds up to the momentous occasion of opening this vault. And what do you find inside? Riches? Weapons? Nah. Instead, you&#039;re greeted by a tentacle-blob-alien with the IQ of a houseplant, which apparently got itself stuck in the vault eons ago. The grand climax involves resisting the urge to scream as you unload three cargo ships worth of ammo into this oversized jello monster with limbs, all while wielding your array of so-called &amp;quot;innovative&amp;quot; guns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Spoiler alert: There’s no treasure, no hidden stash of alien weaponry. Just a gigantic, jiggly alien to blast into oblivion. Revel in the thrilling anti-climax!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Gameplay==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Borderlands gameplay.jpg|left|400px|thumb|Typical gameplay.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The essence of this game can be boiled down to a single, mind-bogglingly complex formula:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shoot &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt; Find New Gun &amp;gt; Shoot &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt; Find New Gun &amp;gt; Shoot &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt; Find New Gun&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ready for the next grueling challenge? Fill in the blanks to prove your readiness:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shoot &amp;gt; &amp;gt; Find New Gun &amp;gt; &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Congratulations if you succeeded! You are now officially as sharp as a Gibbon monkey.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt; Caution: Proceed with care, dimwits.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Playing this game is like enduring a ten-hour marathon on the toilet after a feast of nails and razorblades. The sole redeeming moment of this ordeal is when it mercifully concludes. For those with a penchant for sadomasochism, the challenge might be to see it through to the bitter end, akin to shoving a glass jar up your rear and patiently waiting for the inevitable shattering. The visuals? Imagine a bombed-out wasteland peppered with tent-cities. Every time you perish due to your shield&#039;s laughable durability, you get to respawn at a &amp;quot;New-U Station,&amp;quot; which not only empties your pockets with each resurrection but leaves you bankrupt after four deaths, all while it mockingly bestows upon you a third nipple and a shriveled ego as a &amp;quot;bonus.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After pilfering everything from Fallout 3, you&#039;d think Gearbox Software would at least nab the fast travel system. Think again. Instead, they opted for the genius move of installing random terminals you have to hike to and manually activate in places they deemed &amp;quot;useful.&amp;quot; Predictably, these are situated in the most inconvenient, counterproductive spots imaginable, rather than, oh, I don&#039;t know, having it accessible at all times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Missions===&lt;br /&gt;
Imagine World of Warcraft but with a plot twist – there are only four people on the server. Yes, four. That’s the kind of thrilling social engagement you get. Every single mission feels like a twisted version of a kindergarten scavenger hunt:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;I Want/Lost X&amp;quot; Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; These are the missions where NPCs treat you like their personal errand boy. They lose random items, and somehow it’s your job to find them. Your reward? Some loot that makes you wonder why you bothered.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;This Guy is a Faggot, Go Kill Him&amp;quot; Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; These missions are as subtle as a sledgehammer. Someone doesn’t like someone else, and naturally, you have to play hitman. Your reward? Another shiny thing that barely justifies the effort.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In summary, you’re stuck doing the same mind-numbing tasks repeatedly. The real kicker? You actually paid for this endless loop of mediocrity. Enjoy the grind!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Weapons===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Prudy guns.jpg|300px|thumb|[[ZOMG]] prudy guns!]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Budd dwyer.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Budd Dwyer approves Jakobs, because it really only requires one shot.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the hilariously dysfunctional world of weapons, where logic takes a backseat and absurdity drives the car. Here are the nine types of weapons you&#039;ll find (ten if you count melee, and eleven if you consider Brick&#039;s fists). Each weapon comes with a brand offering different bonuses, and some even have elemental damage for that extra spice. Let’s dive in:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Pistols:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The balanced choice for total noobs. If you’re still using these, congratulations on your first day in the game!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Revolvers:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* Think of the .357 Magnum from Half-Life 2 but now imbued with magical powers and a reload time that gives you enough coffee breaks to write a novel. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;SMGs:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Hold down the trigger and watch it rain bullets like you’re trying to water your garden. Precision? Never heard of it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Shotguns:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* Designed exclusively for obliterating faces at point-blank range. Perfect for when subtlety is not in your vocabulary. IN THE FUCKING FACE!!!11!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Assault Rifles:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Basically SMGs on steroids with magazines that empty faster than your will to live during a family reunion. Ideal for those who think bigger is always better, even when it’s not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Rocket Launchers:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* Surprisingly, these are less effective than a water pistol at a BBQ. Only recommended for use when you feel like making a big, flashy mistake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Sniper Rifles:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* For the wannabe headshot maestro. Prepare for endless screams of “BOOM HEADSHOT!” while you miss half your shots. The epitome of overconfidence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Alien Weapons:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Straight out of Xenu’s personal stash. Use these to steamroll through the game because balance is overrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Grenades:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Ideal for spamming and re-spawn trolling. Most are about as useful as a chocolate teapot, except the life-stealing ones, which are actually kind of cool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Manufacturers ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just like in the real world, there&#039;s a massive monopoly on guns, and boy, do these companies suck. Let&#039;s take a tour through the crappiest gun manufacturers around:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Jakobs:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;If it takes more than one shot, then you weren&#039;t using Jakobs.&amp;quot; Yeah, because your first shot will probably misfire or explode in your hand.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Maliwan:&#039;&#039;&#039; Their guns shoot explosions, fire, electricity, or vomit. Perfect for when you want your enemies to die in a spectacular, yet utterly impractical, manner.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Tediore:&#039;&#039;&#039; Specializing in shitty repeaters, their guns suck so much ass that they&#039;re more effective when you throw them away in frustration than when you actually fire them.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Torgue:&#039;&#039;&#039; These shotguns have high damage but can&#039;t hit the broad side of a barn. Seriously, what the hell were you expecting from a company whose motto should be &amp;quot;Aim is optional&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Vladof:&#039;&#039;&#039; Rifles that fire like AK-47s on speed. You won&#039;t know if you&#039;re hitting the target, but hey, at least you&#039;ll feel like you&#039;re in a 1980s action movie. Perfect for commies and spray-and-pray enthusiasts.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Atlas:&#039;&#039;&#039; They act like jerks to every other company because their guns are allegedly superior. Spoiler alert: They&#039;re not. It&#039;s like a hipster coffee shop bragging about their overpriced, burnt-tasting brews.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Hyperion:&#039;&#039;&#039; Selling super expensive garbage that no one in their right mind would buy. Unless you enjoy burning money, then go ahead.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Dahl:&#039;&#039;&#039; All their weapons come with high recoil, so you better have arms of steel. But who cares about hitting your target when you can get a good workout?&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;S&amp;amp;S Munitions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Just don’t even bother. They make Tediore look like weapons-grade genius.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wonderful world of subpar armaments, where every shot is a gamble and every brand has its own unique way of disappointing you!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;{{frame|[[Image:Gearboxlogo.png|center|Gearbox]]|border=#000000|background=#000000}}&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
TL;DR - &#039;&#039;&#039;LOTSA NEW FUCKIN &#039;PURDY GUNZ!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with any money-grubbing scheme, Queerbox Software couldn&#039;t resist dropping a few hundred overpriced, glorified pieces of garbage with next to no gameplay value, just to milk their gullible fanbase. The development process? Oh, it was a masterpiece of lazy genius: they shamelessly ripped off every successful franchise they could think of and blended it all into a steaming pile of crap, because hey, morons will buy anything, right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Zombie]] Island of Dr. Ned&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The game&#039;s first DLC is the pinnacle of horror movie clichés, a cheap excuse to churn out the laziest garbage as quickly as possible. What we got was a monstrosity combining the worst of Left 4 Dead zombies and Resident Evil crows, because why not? The game introduces Frankensteins and &amp;quot;Were-Skags&amp;quot; – exactly what you&#039;d expect: werewolves made out of bug-dogs and humans. Riveting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The plot? Oh, it&#039;s a masterpiece. You help &amp;quot;Dr. Ze&amp;quot; (oops, I mean &amp;quot;Ned&amp;quot;) deal with a zombie outbreak he caused because he threw a hissy fit over people constantly stealing his popcorn. At first, it&#039;s an infuriating, tedious grind that feels just like the main game – in other words, pure trash. What a shocker.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then, the Crimson Lance zombies show up, and you&#039;re thrown into a never-ending firefight with hordes of vomiting pseudo-zombie morons. This joyous experience ends with a thrilling escape in a missile-shaped pod, complete with plenty of &amp;quot;fuck-you&amp;quot; banter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And just when you thought it couldn&#039;t get worse, some nonsense goes down in a lumber yard. You &amp;quot;meet&amp;quot; knock-off Shaggy and Scooby, battle a giant zombified &amp;quot;Dr. Ned&amp;quot;, and complete other mind-numbing tasks that exist solely to give you more experience points and a couple of decent weapons. Clearly, this is the best content ever made. Bravo, truly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[THUNDERDOME|Mad Moxxi&#039;s Underdome Riot]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, the second DLC – because one steaming pile of recycled content wasn’t enough! Not surprisingly, it’s a blatant rip-off of Mad Max, with a generous sprinkle of Gears of War and Doom thrown in for good measure. To even scratch the surface of its so-called potential, you’ll need a ridiculous number of active friends online – because misery loves company, right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enter Mad Moxxi, the epitome of a character designed by a committee of teenage boys. She&#039;s the “ultimate definition of a whore,” because apparently, that’s what it takes to be the boss of a gang in this creative black hole. But not just any gang – no, she wants the biggest, baddest, ballsiest bastards on this butt-ugly planet to join her crew.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So here we are, in the snowy hell-pits and crater-loaded death-hills, where you and your equally unfortunate friends must shoot things in a desperate bid to control the “GRAETEST ARENA EVAR!” Because nothing says &amp;quot;fun&amp;quot; like mindlessly blasting away in a virtual wasteland.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This time around, you get some half-decent armor – not that it matters. You&#039;ll probably just trade it for some rocks and keep playing &amp;quot;Find the Siren,&amp;quot; because apparently, the developers decided to make hide-and-seek the pinnacle of gaming excitement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So strap in, folks, and prepare for another round of mind-numbing drudgery, courtesy of the second DLC. Who needs originality when you’ve got a melting pot of clichés and a whole lot of hate to fuel your journey? Enjoy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;The Secret Whorehouse of General [[Gay|Fagg]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The third DLC essentially throws more vehicles, more guns, and more vast, empty landscapes at you, featuring nothing but blatant Half-Life rip-offs. The story? Oh, it’s a masterpiece of absurdity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, there’s this chick named Athena who decides she&#039;s done with her Crimson Lance &amp;quot;duties&amp;quot; (wink, wink) and bolts from some guy called General Knoxx, who is apparently her pimp. Knoxx, in his infinite wisdom, sends his other “ladies” to drag her back. Enter some dude named Skank (seriously, that’s his name) who manages to capture her, despite Athena having a freaking teleporter. Genius move, Athena.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons beyond comprehension, you step in, kill Skank, and help Athena escape. Fast forward, you encounter Knoxx again, who’s gone full emo and is on the verge of becoming a self-inflicted casualty. Naturally, you kill him. And what’s your reward? A whole three minutes to enjoy his &amp;quot;whorehouse.&amp;quot; Riveting stuff.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the plot (if you can call it that) thickens, you discover that Moxxi is Scooter&#039;s mom, Skank was her second husband, and Marcus is her third. The family tree of dysfunction doesn&#039;t stop there, though. In the grand finale, you face off against a Giant Enemy Crab. Yep, you read that right. A giant, freaking crab. Because why not? It’s the cherry on top of this absurd DLC sundae.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Crap|Craptrap]]&#039;s Failed Robot Revolution&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fourth DLC is the ultimate dumpster fire, gifting you a collection of even shittier guns to face Hyperion&#039;s laughable version of the Crimson Lance. This masterpiece of brokenness was released in a state that only a developer&#039;s worst enemy could love, taking about a month to patch up. You couldn&#039;t level up, couldn&#039;t snag any achievements or trophies, and were blessed with a view of every unfinished quest from the brainless morons you played with online, drowning your own missions in a sea of pointless, low-level garbage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enter the ninja Claptrap – because regular Claptraps weren’t enough of a headache. This stealthy piece of junk unites all the Claptraps in a glorious revolt, repurposing the corpses of every bad guy you&#039;ve already killed a million times into even more irritating robots. Hyperion, in their infinite wisdom (read: stupidity), tasks you with stopping the so-called Robolution, which is just a fancy way of saying &amp;quot;kill the same annoying robots over and over again.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The silver lining? You get a free pass to obliterate Claptraps for the sake of &amp;quot;great justice.&amp;quot; Yes, you can blow those little nuisances to bits endlessly, because the game generously provides an infinite supply. Meanwhile, some genius named Tannis wants you to gather Claptrap parts so she can craft a giant dildo. Yes, you read that right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you&#039;ve slogged through the story, your OCD will inevitably kick in, compelling you to collect a bunch of random junk: at least three Pink Panties, five Goldfish, fifteen Pizzas, five pairs of 3D Glasses, fifteen Bobble-Heads, and twenty-five Cans of Oil that only drop after you&#039;ve massacred at least 100 enemies. This means you&#039;ll be killing Craptraps for three weeks straight – if you&#039;re an absolute idiot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And there you have it, the fourth DLC: a festival of frustration, pointless quests, and an endless parade of idiotic collectibles. Enjoy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Borderlands 2: Electric Boogaloo==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Spoiler|The Angel is Handsome Jack&#039;s daughter and has been playing you from the start, Roland and The Angel die, the Vault contains just another boss, and there are a million other vaults at the end for a terrible, pointless, drawn-out series of sequels nobody wants}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Boredomlands2 logo.jpg|center|900px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first game was announced as soon as Gearbox realized that their customer base has the shared IQ of a door knob, and as a result, the first game made a lot of [[Jew]] gold. The game features such innovations as &amp;quot;brand-new&amp;quot; characters and re-skins of the old guns. It has four [[Original_character|original]] and is totally not the same as the last game&#039;s characters, because they have different names and/or skin color. A [[wimmin|Siren]], some Mexican &amp;quot;berserker&amp;quot; who [[whut|dual wields guns instead of punching]], a weeaboo [[Asperger&#039;s_Syndrome|sperglord]] with four fingers who speaks (mostly to himself) in [[Japan|haiku]] ([[Shit Nobody Cares About|you know, weeaboo literature shit]]), and a soldier that is obviously different. DLC characters include a [[jailbait|18-year-old girl]] who has sex with robots and a mental retard who enjoys [[Muslim|blowing himself up]]. Their purpose is to milk you out of your ten dollars because we all know you&#039;re not going to play with all four of the characters in the first place, but you&#039;re [[gullible]] enough to pay for any shit they shove down your throat. Good going, Jackass! As a bonus, this game sold 13 million copies worldwide—for a recycled heap of shit. Demonstrating once and for all that &amp;quot;birds of a feather flock together.&amp;quot; isn&#039;t just a gay-ass idiom&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Plot==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Five years after the first game, a company called Hyperion builds a monopoly over a new resource with a stupid name, after it got out of the first vault, infecting the crust of the planet in the process, or some stupid shit like that. Therefore, Hyperion takes over the planet and installs a totalitarian regime ruled by Handsome Jack, the company&#039;s CEO. Whoopty fuckin&#039; doo. Later, news gets out that another hidden vault could be found on Pandora, thus giving a universal reason for dipshits to keep flocking to this wasteland.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The whole game is a mixture of shit that nobody cares about, including joining a resistance force and opposing Hyperion while doing some bland crap in the process. The newly, fresh-cut mongoloids get to interact with the old characters from the first game while you get bombarded by our favorite autistic robot, &amp;quot;ClapTrap,&amp;quot; with a plethora of annoying gestures and phonic pollution. The Sirens now have enhanced powers because they apparently drilled their cunts with uranium.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The resistance base gets fucked up by Hyperion, and after a long, unwanted, boring drama, all the characters join forces to fight Hyperion. In the epic battle that ensues, you kill Jack&#039;s daughter, Angel, who gets all emo and actually requests the pawnage, and in return, Jack kills a nigger, because all niggers die in plotlines. You then learn the location of the second vault, where you encounter Jack and fight him, but the faggot opens the vault and releases the giant lava-dragon thing from within. After emptying a cargo jet of bullets into its perineum, you get to shoot Handsome Jack in the face. Vive la Resistance!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the end, it&#039;s shown that there are over a trillion vaults all over the fuckin&#039; universe, implying with a subtle hint that they can recycle this franchise ad infinitum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Gameplay==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Buy3.png|thumb|If you don&#039;t have four copies, you are [[gay]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Borderlands 2&#039;&#039;&#039; is basically the same game as the first one. Literally. Everything they used in the first one is also in the second, including elements from: [[Diablo II|Diablo]], [[Halo|Halo]], [[Fallout|Fallout 3]], [[Team Fortress 2]], [[World of Warcraft]], [[Gears Of War]], [[Pedophilia|Looney Tunes]], [[Faggot|Mad Max]], [[Resident Evil 5|Resident Evil]], [[Doom]], [[Left 4 Dead]], and [[Dancing With Smurfs|Avatar]], all mashed-up together in a steamy pile of [[Delicious Cake|cow dung]], some tool on [[Liar|Wikipedia]] described as &amp;quot;[[Fallout|first-person role-playing shooter]]&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can still only choose between four playable characters, each recycled from the first game but plastered with a different paint job, to trick the apes who buy the game. Each has their own unique abilities, such as [[Angry Birds|throwing a bird]] at your enemies or turning invisible and falling off a cliff. Do we still have to mention that the abilities are also recycled? I mean, everything else in the game is, including: [[Fact|monsters, guns, vehicles, containers, and landscapes]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The game has [[Over_9000|a lot]] of guns, but every gun is worse than the previous one you had, so it doesn&#039;t really matter. Plus a plethora of [[Halo]]-esque shields and far too many grenade mods. The game is a button-mashing grind-fest. All you do is complete boring, repetitive missions that revolve around whoring yourself for random non-player characters, [[Your Mom|doing their bidding for rewards]], and shooting the same enemies over and over again-[[k/|BUT WITH DIFFERENT GUNZ]]!!! You will spend 99% of the game, whether on foot or by car, just getting to your destination and getting stuck in cacti while being [[Love|gang banged]] by wildlife. The driving can be simulated in real life by force feeding yourself bleach and/or seventy-five pellets of mescaline, while riding a unicycle directly with your ass on a 2 cm wide rope between the [[Azn|Petronas Twin Towers]], so you just end up walking. This probably has something to do with it being on [[Avatar|Pandora]] so walking everywhere makes you more [[Al Gore|green]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;youtube&amp;gt;sGZefn3GiKQ&amp;lt;/youtube&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;The game is not broken at all.&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{quote|Borderlands is all about the journey, not the destination, and like most trips, this one is much better when you have some friends along for the ride.|Borderlands, [[Fact|because there&#039;s only ten hours worth of gameplay here]].}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Manufacturers: Electric Boogaloo ===&lt;br /&gt;
Since the weapons from the first game sucked shit, the developers decided to add even more crap to them in the second game. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Jakobs&#039;&#039;&#039;: To finish a clip, you must now [[figging|spam your fire button]].&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Maliwan&#039;&#039;&#039;: Same shit but with the new purple-puke element. That only weakens the enemy so you can finish them off with a different weapon.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Tediore&#039;&#039;&#039;: Exploding garbage. Don&#039;t even bother to fire their weapons, or even use them. All their guns look like toys.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;TORGUE &#039;&#039;&#039;: NOBODY WANTS THEIR GODDAMN CRAP BECAUSE THEIR BULLETS ARE SLOWER THAN MY GRANDMA!! THE ONLY GOOD GUN, &amp;quot;UNKEMPT HAROLD&amp;quot;, IS USED BY 90% OF THE MOTHERFUCKING PLAYERS WHO ARE STILL PLAYING THIS FUCKING SHIT!! ALSO... EXPLOSIONS?!&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Vladof&#039;&#039;&#039;: Automatic firing on everything.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Atlas Hyperion&#039;&#039;&#039;: Their guns increase accuracy when firing, so there&#039;s a 100% guarantee you&#039;ll hit something.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Bandits&#039;&#039;&#039;: All their guns, except the rocket launcher, are shit.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;E-Tech&#039;&#039;&#039;: The new useless &amp;quot;alien&amp;quot; weapons that are meant to eat your ammo.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Dahl&#039;&#039;&#039;: Aside from the burst fire when zoomed in, they are still worthless in comparison to Vladof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Downloadable content==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
TL;DR - &#039;&#039;&#039;WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU EXPECT?!!&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Habitual life-sucking parasites like video game developers are an unwanted, straightforward exploitation of their dimwitted customer base by effortlessly creating thousands upon thousands of worthless and recycled downloadable content that they preemptively plan and develop before the actual main game is even finished. In this article, we will solely focus on the campaign DLC, which contains some sort of [[Shit|substance]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate [[Ass|Booty]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emphasis on ass, the story revolves around a [[Oxymoron|pirate queen]], because we all know pirates weren&#039;t a bunch of syphilitic misogynistic drunkards whose main occupation besides murdering each other was not forcing [[Whores|women]] to swallow cannon balls with their ass, but apparently in this game they all decided to hold hands and follow one for no apparent fucking reason. The main excuse these pirates have for obeying this bitch is that she&#039;s [[Bullshit|courageous and deadly]], not because they were promised treasure. The only pirate [[Women|womyn]] in history were insufferable dykes that followed every step from the hypergamy rule book in order to fuck their way into a crew and/or up the social hierarchy, having their fuckholes the size of the Tsar Bomba crater at the end of their &amp;quot;careers&amp;quot;. Anyway, disregarding 7th grade history, uptight nitpicking, and logic, we are presented with dem pirates. But wait a minute! They aren&#039;t your normal sticking pirates! No siree! They are known as [[Sandniggers|sand pirates]]. They have AK-47s and they ride camels and stuff. The story goes that a vast ocean once stood in the place of the now arid desert, filled with normal boring-ass pirates. So Geartwat Shitware came and sucked out all the water, being very proficient at sucking [[Cocks|things]], as we know. Nevertheless, this didn&#039;t stop the pirates from pirating. What exactly? I do not know. Caravans maybe? Possibly. But aren&#039;t they just regular robbers? It doesn&#039;t matter, you get to shoot shit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Mr. Torgue&#039;s Campaign of Faggorty&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s about a fucking vault! Wooooooooooooowwww, Bro! [[Holy shit|Holy fucking shit]], who could have thought? I mean, the range, right? Besides the immense brainstorming Geartwat did in-between breaks from swimming in your cash, the &amp;quot;story&amp;quot; is shorter than my dick. The Vault will open once someone [[Wut?|feeds it]] the blood of the &amp;quot;ultimate coward&amp;quot;. So - &amp;quot;some guy&amp;quot; organizes a fagfest to find the biggest pussybitch of them all. I suppose if [[you]] could somehow materialize into the game and [[DO IT FAGGOT|slit your writs]], you could win instantly.The whole DLC has a wrestling theme, probably an implied suggestion that their fans like watching sweaty men in spandex and/or they [[Fap|wrestle]] their microdicks way too much.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Sir Hammermydick&#039;s Big Fag Hunt&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You run around with this pseudo-posh cracka jack hunting &amp;quot;[[Niggers|rare animals]]&amp;quot; until some guy appears, demanding you leave all those niggers alone. And you go like &amp;quot;Lol no&amp;quot; and kill him too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Tiny Tina&#039;s Assault on Deez Nuts&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Fuck you, I&#039;m a dragon!]] This time around you&#039;re playing with a tomboyish lolita, with enough stolen material from Tolkien&#039;s mythology for him to do cartwheels in his grave. This dirty [[Jailbait|jailbait]] is the &amp;quot;game master&amp;quot;, tasking you with playing this abomination just to later realize this is just some cringe-inducing soap opera directed towards the death of that pussy-wiped nigger who dies at the end of the main game. They want you to feel remorse for pixels when the main gimmick of the game is killing shit with guns. Yeah, wrong demographic, fucktards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Classes==&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Trap|Lilith/Maya]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The game&#039;s mandatory [[woman|fuck-puppet]] with a [[MTF|deep voice]]. She can turn into a ghost and have sex with bad guys until they [[feminazi|submit to her]]. Her other special abilities include [[Kitchen|cooking and cleaning]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Nigger|Roland]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: A nigger who joined the military so that he could steal their guns. Incapable of sharing his emotions, the traits of his whole persona can be compared to a concrete block. His special ability lets him [[Team Fortress 2|deploy an automatic turret]]. The only black character in the game was added to mask racism, but was killed in the second game and replaced with a white douchenozzle, thus rendering the whole point devoid of its fucking meaning. After each successful kill, he is said to fuck his turrets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[ITG|Brick]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The brainless steroid infested bloated fuck from [[Gears of War]]. Suffers from [[RAEG|roid-rage]] and an acute case of micro-penis mixed with daddy issues and bipolar disorder, much like [[You|the player]]. Coincidentally, he uses this &#039;roiding as a special ability, [[The Incredible Hulk|hulkin&#039; out]] and fist-raping enemies while being [[Onision|sexually confused]].    &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Mexican|Mordecai]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The game&#039;s [[Vagina|bitch]] luchador, who&#039;s looking for some kind of repayment for [[life|the crap he&#039;s dealt with]] (Apparently, the [[awesome|sweet beard]] is insufficient).His special ability turns the game into Angry Birds (like they didn&#039;t take enough from other games).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Asperger&#039;s Syndrome|Autistic Guy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The guy who balanced his life by removing his face with a spatula while repeatedly shooting people in the head from a distance. Supposed to suffer from dementia, he was witnessed numerous times talking to himself in a sexual manner, probably an alter ego. A boner can be visible at all times while the subject is in action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Douchebag|Douche]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: This character was created to replace the [[Nigger|black man]] who was obviously so [[Last Thursday|2010]].Having the exact same abilities, the only difference now is that when he gets arrested, the cops won&#039;t start [[Fact|beating him for no reason]]. Basically, he&#039;s the love child of [[Faggot|Nathan Drake]] and [[Cracker|Steve Stifler]], with the [[You|mental capabilities of a spoon]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Mechanophilia|Mechromancer]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: An 18-year old girl who left her dad to die and ran away with her robotic blow up doll of death. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTj_Z8jl7HE She is also the most skill-required class to play] (hint: put your skill points in &amp;quot;Close Enough&amp;quot; and you can play with only one button). Also, don&#039;t forget to pay your 60 dollars if you want to fap her to death, you sick fuck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[retard|The Mentally Challenged]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: Pretty much like the Autistic Guy, except he can&#039;t use guns for shit and must be in [[Fucktard|tard]]-rage at all times to survive. Also, he likes to [[Islam|light himself on fire, blow himself up while shouting random nonsense that nobody understands]]. You also need to pay 60 dollars to play with this guy too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Enemies==&lt;br /&gt;
		&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Notahelghast.jpg|thumb|[[environmentalism|Environmentalists]] [[fap|jack off]] to this level of recycling.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Psycho: [[Batshit insane]] people who go around looting stuff in order to survive. They are everywhere and all they do is run directly towards you or stand in one place and shoot at you.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[BREADCRAB|Crabwormlarvae]]: Underground crab things that can be [http://www.getridofthings.com/get-rid-of-crabs.htm killed pretty easily]. &lt;br /&gt;
*[[Cock|Crimson Lance]]: A group of elite soldiers armed with powerful weapons and shields.They have a history of [[Marines|killing civilians and breaking the law]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Guardians: A swarm of [[Scilon|alien/robot things]] that fire lasers and stab you with [[Star Wars|lightsabers]].&lt;br /&gt;
*[[FYIAD|Rakks]]: A bunch of cliff racers bird-dragon dragon-bat-eagle things that fly around and annoy the player, causing them to waste ammo.  Not to worry, though, as ammo apparently grows on trees and is left just about everywhere. They drop health upon death, apparently carrying it in their dicks.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[xbox|Rakk Hive]]: Massive monsters on whicht Rakks live. They can rape you in a minute flat if you&#039;re not prepared. It&#039;s best to kill them by aiming for their eyes and spamming grenades.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Hypercube|Outriders]]: Outriders are bandits who drive around in cars, flipping people off and mooning them through the windshield. They can be completely ignored by launching a guided missile into their cars and running over their flaming corpses. This shouldn&#039;t be an issue as their driving is that of a blind Pomeranian who can&#039;t reach the pedals. &lt;br /&gt;
*[[Giant isopod|Scythid]]: Giant bug-like creatures. Attack in the same way that Skags do, except that some [[Jihad|blow up]] when killed up close.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[dogs|Skags]]: [[Zerg Rush|Zerg]] like [[Wimmins|dog]] creatures without assholes. They eat stuff and regurgitate anything they can&#039;t digest, from ammo and guns to dollar bills, because the point of logic is to ignore it completely. &lt;br /&gt;
*[[barrel roll|Spiderant]]:  The result of a natural phenomenon of ants and spiders fucking or just being an unimaginative Gearbox employee twat. Without eyes, they will always confuse the player character as a potential mate, and they will immediately start chasing you for the main purpose of [[Love|forcing]] you into their colony. Some advanced species don&#039;t even need to chase you anymore because they&#039;ve discovered a method to barrage you with hunks of [[Cum|jizz]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==ClapTrap==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Claptrap.jpg|thumb|right|110px|Claptrap... [[No|get it]]? [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonorrhea Clap] infested [[Trap|Trap]]... but in this case, [[Star Wars|just a midget in a metal box]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Cunt|ClapTraps]] (pronounced &#039;[[forced meme|forced meme]]&#039;) are the unicycled robots inhabiting the world of Borderlands, which you&#039;ll come across several times on your journey and are more or less designed to be the &amp;quot;comedic&amp;quot; sidekick of the game, giving you a brain tumour in the process. Unfortunately, Gearbox missed the mark by several miles in creating a popular &amp;quot;[[Portal|Companion Cube]]&amp;quot; like mascot character that&#039;s enduring and popular (Jew) to players, but what they didn&#039;t realize was that the idea of [[Star Wars|an annoying little robot that talked in a stupid electronic voice and went around dancing]] had already been used. They also took the name &amp;quot;ClapTrap&amp;quot; from [[Donkey Kong|another entertainment franchise worshiped by nerds]]. ClapTraps are living proof that robots can develop [[Assburgers|Asperger&#039;s syndrome]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==[[Duke Nukem]] Demo==&lt;br /&gt;
When you bought Borderlands Game of the Year edition, besides getting all the DLC that [[you]] had already wasted forty bucks on, you also got access to an exclusive Duke Nukem demo on all systems.  Though if you got the game through [[Steam]] and used the best [[PC|console]], you could just download the demo anyway. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Borderlands 3: Pushing A Turd Down Hill==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Borderlands 3: the highly anticipated sequel in the Borderlands series, where Gearbox Software somehow managed to pack in even more explosions, wisecracking characters, and improbable weaponry, proving once again that you don’t need to reinvent the wheel when you can just slap a few more spikes on it and call it a day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Plot: Or the Lack Thereof===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Borderlands 3, players return to the lawless wastelands of Pandora, which, despite being blown up, burnt down, and repeatedly shot to pieces in previous installments, still manages to provide endless entertainment. This time, the player characters, dubbed the Vault Hunters, are up against the Calypso twins, Tyreen and Troy, a pair of insufferably edgy streamers whose primary goal is to annoy you into submission with their incessant vlogging and penchant for viral hashtags.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Vault Hunters===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The game introduces four new Vault Hunters, each one more absurd than the last:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Zane Flynt&#039;&#039;&#039;, the Irish stereotype who shoots first and asks questions never.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Amara&#039;&#039;&#039;, the brawler who punches first and... also asks questions never.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Moze&#039;&#039;&#039;, the mech pilot who thought playing a first-person shooter inside a first-person shooter was a good idea.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;FL4K&#039;&#039;&#039; the pet-loving robot who somehow has more emotional depth than the entirety of the supporting cast.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gameplay: Button Mashing and Loot Grabbing===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The core gameplay of Borderlands 3 remains unchanged, because why fix what’s broken? Players will spend countless hours shooting, looting, and wondering why they’re still playing. The game’s notorious for its “gazillion guns,” most of which you’ll discard within minutes for the next marginally better one. Highlights include guns that walk, guns that talk, and guns that shoot other guns because, apparently, Gearbox ran out of ideas sometime in 2011.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Humor: Forced and Farcical===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Borderlands 3 tries very hard to be funny. So hard, in fact, that it ends up being the video game equivalent of that one friend who still quotes Monty Python sketches verbatim. The humor is a mix of juvenile gags, forced memes, and characters screaming at you about how wacky and zany they are. The writing team apparently had a quota to fill for &amp;quot;quirky dialogue,&amp;quot; resulting in interactions that range from mildly amusing to painfully awkward.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Graphics: Next-Gen Cell Shading===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Geartwat stuck with the signature cell-shaded art style, presumably because it’s easier to draw squiggly lines than realistic textures. The vibrant, comic-book look still holds up, mainly because it’s the only thing stopping the game from looking like a post-apocalyptic version of Farmville.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Multiplayer: Mayhem and Mediocrity===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Playing Borderlands 3 with friends is akin to herding cats with flamethrowers. The game shines brightest in co-op, where you can collectively marvel at the sheer stupidity of the plot and simultaneously despair over the repetitive loot grind. Just be prepared for the inevitable lag spikes and connection issues, a staple feature in any modern multiplayer game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===DLC: The Never-Ending Story===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gearfag, never one to miss an opportunity to milk the cash cow, released a slew of DLCs that promise to extend the Borderlands experience well beyond its welcome. From fighting off Lovecraftian horrors to attending Handsome Jack&#039;s posthumous bachelor party, the DLCs ensure that if you weren’t tired of the game by the end of the main campaign, you certainly will be after the expansions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===A Glorious Mess===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Borderlands 3 is exactly what you’d expect: more guns, more explosions, and more over-the-top antics. It’s a game that doesn’t take itself seriously, which is fortunate because no one else does either. Despite its flaws, it’s an entertaining romp through a world where logic takes a backseat to lunacy, and that’s precisely why it remains beloved by fans and a laughingstock to everyone else. Enjoy the ride, and don’t forget to set your expectations to low and your volume to mute.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trolling==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===[[Fanbois]]===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Ask where the [[Banhammer|REAL]] [[Wood|melee]] [[Pipe|weapons]] are.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ask for modded stuff.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mention the words [[Fallout|&amp;quot;fall&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;out&amp;quot;]] in the same sentence on a Borderlands forum.&lt;br /&gt;
* Telling them an assault rifle with 97% accuracy and 215 damage isn&#039;t nearly as satisfying as having a life.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them the following based on which character they play&lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Lilith, it is because they desperately want a girlfriend and will never get laid.&lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Roland, it is because they are a [[wigger]], or possibly a [[chav]]. &lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Brick, it is because they are a [[fat]] fuck who wishes he had chunk-power.&lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Mordecai, it is because they want to be a badass but are afraid to leave the basement.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them that WoW is an MMO that has more than just four players per server.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them &#039;&#039;[[Wolfenstein]]&#039;&#039; had better graphics.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them that an original art style doesn&#039;t mean jack shit [[Gears Of War|if the only colors used are gray and brown]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Ask them if the game ends once you get to Vault 13.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them you have the &amp;quot;Troll Repeater Pistol&amp;quot; and want to trade it for a hex for your Diablo character.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them the game is overrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Online [[Lulz|Tips]] ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Equip your character with the [[Vampire|&amp;quot;Transfusion&amp;quot;]] grenade modifier and start a duel with your partner(s). Works best as Brick in a [[asshole|tight, confined space]] (Lost Cave, some Arenas, etc.) with about 5-6 grenades, and bonus points if you scream &amp;quot;[[Terrorist|ALLAHU AKBAR!]]&amp;quot; while doing so.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Leeroy Jenkins|As Roland or Brick, take off aimlessly into a dangerous area]] full of [[ITG|&amp;quot;Badass&amp;quot;]] bandits, skags, etc., then run back to your teammate(s) and either keep running and [[Dox|turn around to see if they survive]], or [[You don&#039;t have any friends|quit and see if you&#039;ll even play together again]].&lt;br /&gt;
* As Lilith, four words: [[Hax|Phasewalk the entire duel.]]&lt;br /&gt;
* As Brick, scream the entire time you beat up Roland bare-handed, &amp;quot;PUNCH [[NIGGERS|SOLDIERS]] RECEIVE [[Cake|GUNS]]!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
* As Mordecai, or possibly Roland, run off from your group and hide out in a house or somewhere unseen around a bandit spawn-point, and &amp;quot;blend in&amp;quot; as your partners get raped. When they&#039;re near death, run over to them, heal them, [[pussy|THEN challenge them to a duel]].&lt;br /&gt;
*As Roland, constantly ask where the [[white]] [[wimminz]] at, even if Lilith&#039;s in the group. [[Trap|ESPECIALLY if Lilith&#039;s in the group]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Get yourself a modded gun and shield, so that you can kill anything and be unkillable. Then go into a game with noobs and continuously demand duels with them. Bonus points if you&#039;re in the middle of a fight. Win and claim that you have skillz or rub it in their face. Demand another duel. Win and rub. Repeat.&lt;br /&gt;
*Join low-level games, kill bosses, and steal all the loot.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Help&amp;quot; new players with boss battles by escorting them there, and then wandering off to do something more important. When they ask what you&#039;re doing, respond with &amp;quot;Did you not get the message? There are more jobs available at the New Haven bounty board. You kill him, and I&#039;ll go get the mission&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*As the driver, crash the car.&lt;br /&gt;
*Make up a class mod. Say a boss dropped it, and refuse to trade it for anything.&lt;br /&gt;
*Constantly ask to &amp;quot;borrow&amp;quot; money.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{Spoiler|Turns out, the Vault isn’t a treasure trove after all, it’s actually a sex dungeon run by a mischievous tentacle blob and Guardian Angel’ is basically just a budget Cortana knockoff from Halo}}&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Borderlands player.jpg|thumb|...and the fanboys, dear baby Jesus.]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Borderlands vs fallout.jpg|thumb|[[Fallout]] vs. Borderlands, let the retardation begin.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Borderlands&#039;&#039;&#039; is a [[sarcasm|revolutionary]] video game [[vomit|concept]]: imagine [[Halo]] and [[World of Warcraft]] having a Fetal Alcohol Syndrome lovechild at gunpoint by [[Fallout 3]], complete with randomizing mechanics straight out of Rogue. The graphics feel like the product of a bizarre experiment: take the cartoony, exaggerated style of [[Team Fortress 2]] and the outdated, jagged edges of [[PlayStation 2]] visuals, toss them into a blender, suck the last drop of innovation and originality out of them, and pour the resulting mush straight into the game. What you’re left with is a world that looks oddly familiar, but devoid of any fresh artistic spark, an uninspired mishmash that seems to have forgotten it’s in the 21st century. The result? A visual style that&#039;s both dated and recycled, with none of the charm of [[Team Fortress 2]] or the nostalgia of PS2-era games, just a hollow shell of what could have been. The characters seem to have been plucked from Killzone, Gears of War, and ‘80s slasher flicks. The whole experience is drenched in a Mad Max-esque vibe, set on a chaotic planet filled with deranged lunatics. In other words, it’s a simplified version of [[Fallout 3]] with a dash of Team Fortress 2 aesthetics and a healthy dose of bizarre design choices, as though crafted by developers in the throes of creative dementia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most players likely bought it thinking it was an expansion for Fallout 3, but instead, they were greeted with LOTS OF FREAKIN&#039; PURDY GUNZ!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite its oddities, Borderlands went on to sell [[WTF|4.5 million units]] worldwide, proving that running around with a machine gun and [[DO IT FAGGOT|shooting random pedestrians]] is apparently good for the environment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Oblivion with Guns (A.K.A. Borderlands)==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Oblivion with guns.jpg|center|450px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{quote|On the delightful deathtrap known as Pandora, a paradise teeming with charming bandits and delightful perils, there&#039;s a singular, irresistible allure: The Vault. It&#039;s the galaxy&#039;s most obvious secret, beckoning every treasure hunter, adrenaline junkie, and hopelessly clueless buffoon from across the cosmos.|Borderlands, don&#039;t forget your Pip-Boy.}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#039;s not kid ourselves. &amp;quot;Borderlands&amp;quot;? More like &amp;quot;Oblivion with Guns, Minus the Oblivion.&amp;quot; This game throws you into the boots of a mercenary who you&#039;ll probably never care about, with a backstory so thin it might as well be nonexistent. Welcome to Pandora, a planet so anarchic and godforsaken, it&#039;s basically a desert devoid of any gigantic, blue, Native American-esque aliens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Motivated by the purest form of altruism – the desire to get filthy rich – you embark on a quest to find a legendary stash of powerful alien technology hidden in a place charmingly referred to as &amp;quot;The Vault.&amp;quot; As a &amp;quot;Vault Hunter,&amp;quot; you&#039;re on a noble mission to uncover a mythical treasure trove.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Naturally, the entire game builds up to the momentous occasion of opening this vault. And what do you find inside? Riches? Weapons? Nah. Instead, you&#039;re greeted by a tentacle-blob-alien with the IQ of a houseplant, which apparently got itself stuck in the vault eons ago. The grand climax involves resisting the urge to scream as you unload three cargo ships worth of ammo into this oversized jello monster with limbs, all while wielding your array of so-called &amp;quot;innovative&amp;quot; guns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Spoiler alert: There’s no treasure, no hidden stash of alien weaponry. Just a gigantic, jiggly alien to blast into oblivion. Revel in the thrilling anti-climax!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Gameplay==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Borderlands gameplay.jpg|left|400px|thumb|Typical gameplay.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The essence of this game can be boiled down to a single, mind-bogglingly complex formula:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shoot &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt; Find New Gun &amp;gt; Shoot &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt; Find New Gun &amp;gt; Shoot &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt; Find New Gun&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ready for the next grueling challenge? Fill in the blanks to prove your readiness:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shoot &amp;gt; &amp;gt; Find New Gun &amp;gt; &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Congratulations if you succeeded! You are now officially as sharp as a Gibbon monkey.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt; Caution: Proceed with care, dimwits.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Playing this game is like enduring a ten-hour marathon on the toilet after a feast of nails and razorblades. The sole redeeming moment of this ordeal is when it mercifully concludes. For those with a penchant for sadomasochism, the challenge might be to see it through to the bitter end, akin to shoving a glass jar up your rear and patiently waiting for the inevitable shattering. The visuals? Imagine a bombed-out wasteland peppered with tent-cities. Every time you perish due to your shield&#039;s laughable durability, you get to respawn at a &amp;quot;New-U Station,&amp;quot; which not only empties your pockets with each resurrection but leaves you bankrupt after four deaths, all while it mockingly bestows upon you a third nipple and a shriveled ego as a &amp;quot;bonus.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After pilfering everything from Fallout 3, you&#039;d think Gearbox Software would at least nab the fast travel system. Think again. Instead, they opted for the genius move of installing random terminals you have to hike to and manually activate in places they deemed &amp;quot;useful.&amp;quot; Predictably, these are situated in the most inconvenient, counterproductive spots imaginable, rather than, oh, I don&#039;t know, having it accessible at all times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Missions===&lt;br /&gt;
Imagine World of Warcraft but with a plot twist – there are only four people on the server. Yes, four. That’s the kind of thrilling social engagement you get. Every single mission feels like a twisted version of a kindergarten scavenger hunt:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;I Want/Lost X&amp;quot; Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; These are the missions where NPCs treat you like their personal errand boy. They lose random items, and somehow it’s your job to find them. Your reward? Some loot that makes you wonder why you bothered.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;This Guy is a Faggot, Go Kill Him&amp;quot; Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; These missions are as subtle as a sledgehammer. Someone doesn’t like someone else, and naturally, you have to play hitman. Your reward? Another shiny thing that barely justifies the effort.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In summary, you’re stuck doing the same mind-numbing tasks repeatedly. The real kicker? You actually paid for this endless loop of mediocrity. Enjoy the grind!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Weapons===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Prudy guns.jpg|300px|thumb|[[ZOMG]] prudy guns!]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Budd dwyer.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Budd Dwyer approves Jakobs, because it really only requires one shot.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the hilariously dysfunctional world of weapons, where logic takes a backseat and absurdity drives the car. Here are the nine types of weapons you&#039;ll find (ten if you count melee, and eleven if you consider Brick&#039;s fists). Each weapon comes with a brand offering different bonuses, and some even have elemental damage for that extra spice. Let’s dive in:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Pistols:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The balanced choice for total noobs. If you’re still using these, congratulations on your first day in the game!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Revolvers:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* Think of the .357 Magnum from Half-Life 2 but now imbued with magical powers and a reload time that gives you enough coffee breaks to write a novel. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;SMGs:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Hold down the trigger and watch it rain bullets like you’re trying to water your garden. Precision? Never heard of it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Shotguns:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* Designed exclusively for obliterating faces at point-blank range. Perfect for when subtlety is not in your vocabulary. IN THE FUCKING FACE!!!11!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Assault Rifles:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Basically SMGs on steroids with magazines that empty faster than your will to live during a family reunion. Ideal for those who think bigger is always better, even when it’s not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Rocket Launchers:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* Surprisingly, these are less effective than a water pistol at a BBQ. Only recommended for use when you feel like making a big, flashy mistake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Sniper Rifles:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* For the wannabe headshot maestro. Prepare for endless screams of “BOOM HEADSHOT!” while you miss half your shots. The epitome of overconfidence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Alien Weapons:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Straight out of Xenu’s personal stash. Use these to steamroll through the game because balance is overrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Grenades:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Ideal for spamming and re-spawn trolling. Most are about as useful as a chocolate teapot, except the life-stealing ones, which are actually kind of cool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Manufacturers ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just like in the real world, there&#039;s a massive monopoly on guns, and boy, do these companies suck. Let&#039;s take a tour through the crappiest gun manufacturers around:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Jakobs:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;If it takes more than one shot, then you weren&#039;t using Jakobs.&amp;quot; Yeah, because your first shot will probably misfire or explode in your hand.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Maliwan:&#039;&#039;&#039; Their guns shoot explosions, fire, electricity, or vomit. Perfect for when you want your enemies to die in a spectacular, yet utterly impractical, manner.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Tediore:&#039;&#039;&#039; Specializing in shitty repeaters, their guns suck so much ass that they&#039;re more effective when you throw them away in frustration than when you actually fire them.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Torgue:&#039;&#039;&#039; These shotguns have high damage but can&#039;t hit the broad side of a barn. Seriously, what the hell were you expecting from a company whose motto should be &amp;quot;Aim is optional&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Vladof:&#039;&#039;&#039; Rifles that fire like AK-47s on speed. You won&#039;t know if you&#039;re hitting the target, but hey, at least you&#039;ll feel like you&#039;re in a 1980s action movie. Perfect for commies and spray-and-pray enthusiasts.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Atlas:&#039;&#039;&#039; They act like jerks to every other company because their guns are allegedly superior. Spoiler alert: They&#039;re not. It&#039;s like a hipster coffee shop bragging about their overpriced, burnt-tasting brews.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Hyperion:&#039;&#039;&#039; Selling super expensive garbage that no one in their right mind would buy. Unless you enjoy burning money, then go ahead.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Dahl:&#039;&#039;&#039; All their weapons come with high recoil, so you better have arms of steel. But who cares about hitting your target when you can get a good workout?&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;S&amp;amp;S Munitions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Just don’t even bother. They make Tediore look like weapons-grade genius.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wonderful world of subpar armaments, where every shot is a gamble and every brand has its own unique way of disappointing you!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;{{frame|[[Image:Gearboxlogo.png|center|Gearbox]]|border=#000000|background=#000000}}&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
TL;DR - &#039;&#039;&#039;LOTSA NEW FUCKIN &#039;PURDY GUNZ!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with any money-grubbing scheme, Queerbox Software couldn&#039;t resist dropping a few hundred overpriced, glorified pieces of garbage with next to no gameplay value, just to milk their gullible fanbase. The development process? Oh, it was a masterpiece of lazy genius: they shamelessly ripped off every successful franchise they could think of and blended it all into a steaming pile of crap, because hey, morons will buy anything, right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Zombie]] Island of Dr. Ned&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The game&#039;s first DLC is the pinnacle of horror movie clichés, a cheap excuse to churn out the laziest garbage as quickly as possible. What we got was a monstrosity combining the worst of Left 4 Dead zombies and Resident Evil crows, because why not? The game introduces Frankensteins and &amp;quot;Were-Skags&amp;quot; – exactly what you&#039;d expect: werewolves made out of bug-dogs and humans. Riveting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The plot? Oh, it&#039;s a masterpiece. You help &amp;quot;Dr. Ze&amp;quot; (oops, I mean &amp;quot;Ned&amp;quot;) deal with a zombie outbreak he caused because he threw a hissy fit over people constantly stealing his popcorn. At first, it&#039;s an infuriating, tedious grind that feels just like the main game – in other words, pure trash. What a shocker.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then, the Crimson Lance zombies show up, and you&#039;re thrown into a never-ending firefight with hordes of vomiting pseudo-zombie morons. This joyous experience ends with a thrilling escape in a missile-shaped pod, complete with plenty of &amp;quot;fuck-you&amp;quot; banter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And just when you thought it couldn&#039;t get worse, some nonsense goes down in a lumber yard. You &amp;quot;meet&amp;quot; knock-off Shaggy and Scooby, battle a giant zombified &amp;quot;Dr. Ned&amp;quot;, and complete other mind-numbing tasks that exist solely to give you more experience points and a couple of decent weapons. Clearly, this is the best content ever made. Bravo, truly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[THUNDERDOME|Mad Moxxi&#039;s Underdome Riot]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, the second DLC – because one steaming pile of recycled content wasn’t enough! Not surprisingly, it’s a blatant rip-off of Mad Max, with a generous sprinkle of Gears of War and Doom thrown in for good measure. To even scratch the surface of its so-called potential, you’ll need a ridiculous number of active friends online – because misery loves company, right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enter Mad Moxxi, the epitome of a character designed by a committee of teenage boys. She&#039;s the “ultimate definition of a whore,” because apparently, that’s what it takes to be the boss of a gang in this creative black hole. But not just any gang – no, she wants the biggest, baddest, ballsiest bastards on this butt-ugly planet to join her crew.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So here we are, in the snowy hell-pits and crater-loaded death-hills, where you and your equally unfortunate friends must shoot things in a desperate bid to control the “GRAETEST ARENA EVAR!” Because nothing says &amp;quot;fun&amp;quot; like mindlessly blasting away in a virtual wasteland.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This time around, you get some half-decent armor – not that it matters. You&#039;ll probably just trade it for some rocks and keep playing &amp;quot;Find the Siren,&amp;quot; because apparently, the developers decided to make hide-and-seek the pinnacle of gaming excitement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So strap in, folks, and prepare for another round of mind-numbing drudgery, courtesy of the second DLC. Who needs originality when you’ve got a melting pot of clichés and a whole lot of hate to fuel your journey? Enjoy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;The Secret Whorehouse of General [[Gay|Fagg]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The third DLC essentially throws more vehicles, more guns, and more vast, empty landscapes at you, featuring nothing but blatant Half-Life rip-offs. The story? Oh, it’s a masterpiece of absurdity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, there’s this chick named Athena who decides she&#039;s done with her Crimson Lance &amp;quot;duties&amp;quot; (wink, wink) and bolts from some guy called General Knoxx, who is apparently her pimp. Knoxx, in his infinite wisdom, sends his other “ladies” to drag her back. Enter some dude named Skank (seriously, that’s his name) who manages to capture her, despite Athena having a freaking teleporter. Genius move, Athena.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons beyond comprehension, you step in, kill Skank, and help Athena escape. Fast forward, you encounter Knoxx again, who’s gone full emo and is on the verge of becoming a self-inflicted casualty. Naturally, you kill him. And what’s your reward? A whole three minutes to enjoy his &amp;quot;whorehouse.&amp;quot; Riveting stuff.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the plot (if you can call it that) thickens, you discover that Moxxi is Scooter&#039;s mom, Skank was her second husband, and Marcus is her third. The family tree of dysfunction doesn&#039;t stop there, though. In the grand finale, you face off against a Giant Enemy Crab. Yep, you read that right. A giant, freaking crab. Because why not? It’s the cherry on top of this absurd DLC sundae.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Crap|Craptrap]]&#039;s Failed Robot Revolution&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fourth DLC is the ultimate dumpster fire, gifting you a collection of even shittier guns to face Hyperion&#039;s laughable version of the Crimson Lance. This masterpiece of brokenness was released in a state that only a developer&#039;s worst enemy could love, taking about a month to patch up. You couldn&#039;t level up, couldn&#039;t snag any achievements or trophies, and were blessed with a view of every unfinished quest from the brainless morons you played with online, drowning your own missions in a sea of pointless, low-level garbage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enter the ninja Claptrap – because regular Claptraps weren’t enough of a headache. This stealthy piece of junk unites all the Claptraps in a glorious revolt, repurposing the corpses of every bad guy you&#039;ve already killed a million times into even more irritating robots. Hyperion, in their infinite wisdom (read: stupidity), tasks you with stopping the so-called Robolution, which is just a fancy way of saying &amp;quot;kill the same annoying robots over and over again.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The silver lining? You get a free pass to obliterate Claptraps for the sake of &amp;quot;great justice.&amp;quot; Yes, you can blow those little nuisances to bits endlessly, because the game generously provides an infinite supply. Meanwhile, some genius named Tannis wants you to gather Claptrap parts so she can craft a giant dildo. Yes, you read that right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you&#039;ve slogged through the story, your OCD will inevitably kick in, compelling you to collect a bunch of random junk: at least three Pink Panties, five Goldfish, fifteen Pizzas, five pairs of 3D Glasses, fifteen Bobble-Heads, and twenty-five Cans of Oil that only drop after you&#039;ve massacred at least 100 enemies. This means you&#039;ll be killing Craptraps for three weeks straight – if you&#039;re an absolute idiot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And there you have it, the fourth DLC: a festival of frustration, pointless quests, and an endless parade of idiotic collectibles. Enjoy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Borderlands 2: Electric Boogaloo==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Spoiler|The Angel is Handsome Jack&#039;s daughter and has been playing you from the start, Roland and The Angel die, the Vault contains just another boss, and there are a million other vaults at the end for a terrible, pointless, drawn-out series of sequels nobody wants}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Boredomlands2 logo.jpg|center|900px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first game was announced as soon as Gearbox realized that their customer base has the shared IQ of a door knob, and as a result, the first game made a lot of [[Jew]] gold. The game features such innovations as &amp;quot;brand-new&amp;quot; characters and re-skins of the old guns. It has four [[Original_character|original]] and is totally not the same as the last game&#039;s characters, because they have different names and/or skin color. A [[wimmin|Siren]], some Mexican &amp;quot;berserker&amp;quot; who [[whut|dual wields guns instead of punching]], a weeaboo [[Asperger&#039;s_Syndrome|sperglord]] with four fingers who speaks (mostly to himself) in [[Japan|haiku]] ([[Shit Nobody Cares About|you know, weeaboo literature shit]]), and a soldier that is obviously different. DLC characters include a [[jailbait|18-year-old girl]] who has sex with robots and a mental retard who enjoys [[Muslim|blowing himself up]]. Their purpose is to milk you out of your ten dollars because we all know you&#039;re not going to play with all four of the characters in the first place, but you&#039;re [[gullible]] enough to pay for any shit they shove down your throat. Good going, Jackass! As a bonus, this game sold 13 million copies worldwide—for a recycled heap of shit. Demonstrating once and for all that &amp;quot;birds of a feather flock together.&amp;quot; isn&#039;t just a gay-ass idiom&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Plot==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Five years after the first game, a company called Hyperion builds a monopoly over a new resource with a stupid name, after it got out of the first vault, infecting the crust of the planet in the process, or some stupid shit like that. Therefore, Hyperion takes over the planet and installs a totalitarian regime ruled by Handsome Jack, the company&#039;s CEO. Whoopty fuckin&#039; doo. Later, news gets out that another hidden vault could be found on Pandora, thus giving a universal reason for dipshits to keep flocking to this wasteland.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The whole game is a mixture of shit that nobody cares about, including joining a resistance force and opposing Hyperion while doing some bland crap in the process. The newly, fresh-cut mongoloids get to interact with the old characters from the first game while you get bombarded by our favorite autistic robot, &amp;quot;ClapTrap,&amp;quot; with a plethora of annoying gestures and phonic pollution. The Sirens now have enhanced powers because they apparently drilled their cunts with uranium.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The resistance base gets fucked up by Hyperion, and after a long, unwanted, boring drama, all the characters join forces to fight Hyperion. In the epic battle that ensues, you kill Jack&#039;s daughter, Angel, who gets all emo and actually requests the pawnage, and in return, Jack kills a nigger, because all niggers die in plotlines. You then learn the location of the second vault, where you encounter Jack and fight him, but the faggot opens the vault and releases the giant lava-dragon thing from within. After emptying a cargo jet of bullets into its perineum, you get to shoot Handsome Jack in the face. Vive la Resistance!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the end, it&#039;s shown that there are over a trillion vaults all over the fuckin&#039; universe, implying with a subtle hint that they can recycle this franchise ad infinitum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Gameplay==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Buy3.png|thumb|If you don&#039;t have four copies, you are [[gay]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Borderlands 2&#039;&#039;&#039; is basically the same game as the first one. Literally. Everything they used in the first one is also in the second, including elements from: [[Diablo II|Diablo]], [[Halo|Halo]], [[Fallout|Fallout 3]], [[Team Fortress 2]], [[World of Warcraft]], [[Gears Of War]], [[Pedophilia|Looney Tunes]], [[Faggot|Mad Max]], [[Resident Evil 5|Resident Evil]], [[Doom]], [[Left 4 Dead]], and [[Dancing With Smurfs|Avatar]], all mashed-up together in a steamy pile of [[Delicious Cake|cow dung]], some tool on [[Liar|Wikipedia]] described as &amp;quot;[[Fallout|first-person role-playing shooter]]&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can still only choose between four playable characters, each recycled from the first game but plastered with a different paint job, to trick the apes who buy the game. Each has their own unique abilities, such as [[Angry Birds|throwing a bird]] at your enemies or turning invisible and falling off a cliff. Do we still have to mention that the abilities are also recycled? I mean, everything else in the game is, including: [[Fact|monsters, guns, vehicles, containers, and landscapes]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The game has [[Over_9000|a lot]] of guns, but every gun is worse than the previous one you had, so it doesn&#039;t really matter. Plus a plethora of [[Halo]]-esque shields and far too many grenade mods. The game is a button-mashing grind-fest. All you do is complete boring, repetitive missions that revolve around whoring yourself for random non-player characters, [[Your Mom|doing their bidding for rewards]], and shooting the same enemies over and over again-[[k/|BUT WITH DIFFERENT GUNZ]]!!! You will spend 99% of the game, whether on foot or by car, just getting to your destination and getting stuck in cacti while being [[Love|gang banged]] by wildlife. The driving can be simulated in real life by force feeding yourself bleach and/or seventy-five pellets of mescaline, while riding a unicycle directly with your ass on a 2 cm wide rope between the [[Azn|Petronas Twin Towers]], so you just end up walking. This probably has something to do with it being on [[Avatar|Pandora]] so walking everywhere makes you more [[Al Gore|green]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;youtube&amp;gt;sGZefn3GiKQ&amp;lt;/youtube&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;The game is not broken at all.&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{quote|Borderlands is all about the journey, not the destination, and like most trips, this one is much better when you have some friends along for the ride.|Borderlands, [[Fact|because there&#039;s only ten hours worth of gameplay here]].}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Manufacturers: Electric Boogaloo ===&lt;br /&gt;
Since the weapons from the first game sucked shit, the developers decided to add even more crap to them in the second game. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Jakobs&#039;&#039;&#039;: To finish a clip, you must now [[figging|spam your fire button]].&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Maliwan&#039;&#039;&#039;: Same shit but with the new purple-puke element. That only weakens the enemy so you can finish them off with a different weapon.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Tediore&#039;&#039;&#039;: Exploding garbage. Don&#039;t even bother to fire their weapons, or even use them. All their guns look like toys.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;TORGUE &#039;&#039;&#039;: NOBODY WANTS THEIR GODDAMN CRAP BECAUSE THEIR BULLETS ARE SLOWER THAN MY GRANDMA!! THE ONLY GOOD GUN, &amp;quot;UNKEMPT HAROLD&amp;quot;, IS USED BY 90% OF THE MOTHERFUCKING PLAYERS WHO ARE STILL PLAYING THIS FUCKING SHIT!! ALSO... EXPLOSIONS?!&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Vladof&#039;&#039;&#039;: Automatic firing on everything.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Atlas Hyperion&#039;&#039;&#039;: Their guns increase accuracy when firing, so there&#039;s a 100% guarantee you&#039;ll hit something.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Bandits&#039;&#039;&#039;: All their guns, except the rocket launcher, are shit.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;E-Tech&#039;&#039;&#039;: The new useless &amp;quot;alien&amp;quot; weapons that are meant to eat your ammo.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Dahl&#039;&#039;&#039;: Aside from the burst fire when zoomed in, they are still worthless in comparison to Vladof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Downloadable content==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
TL;DR - &#039;&#039;&#039;WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU EXPECT?!!&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Habitual life-sucking parasites like video game developers are an unwanted, straightforward exploitation of their dimwitted customer base by effortlessly creating thousands upon thousands of worthless and recycled downloadable content that they preemptively plan and develop before the actual main game is even finished. In this article, we will solely focus on the campaign DLC, which contains some sort of [[Shit|substance]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate [[Ass|Booty]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emphasis on ass, the story revolves around a [[Oxymoron|pirate queen]], because we all know pirates weren&#039;t a bunch of syphilitic misogynistic drunkards whose main occupation besides murdering each other was not forcing [[Whores|women]] to swallow cannon balls with their ass, but apparently in this game they all decided to hold hands and follow one for no apparent fucking reason. The main excuse these pirates have for obeying this bitch is that she&#039;s [[Bullshit|courageous and deadly]], not because they were promised treasure. The only pirate [[Women|womyn]] in history were insufferable dykes that followed every step from the hypergamy rule book in order to fuck their way into a crew and/or up the social hierarchy, having their fuckholes the size of the Tsar Bomba crater at the end of their &amp;quot;careers&amp;quot;. Anyway, disregarding 7th grade history, uptight nitpicking, and logic, we are presented with dem pirates. But wait a minute! They aren&#039;t your normal sticking pirates! No siree! They are known as [[Sandniggers|sand pirates]]. They have AK-47s and they ride camels and stuff. The story goes that a vast ocean once stood in the place of the now arid desert, filled with normal boring-ass pirates. So Geartwat Shitware came and sucked out all the water, being very proficient at sucking [[Cocks|things]], as we know. Nevertheless, this didn&#039;t stop the pirates from pirating. What exactly? I do not know. Caravans maybe? Possibly. But aren&#039;t they just regular robbers? It doesn&#039;t matter, you get to shoot shit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Mr. Torgue&#039;s Campaign of Faggorty&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s about a fucking vault! Wooooooooooooowwww, Bro! [[Holy shit|Holy fucking shit]], who could have thought? I mean, the range, right? Besides the immense brainstorming Geartwat did in-between breaks from swimming in your cash, the &amp;quot;story&amp;quot; is shorter than my dick. The Vault will open once someone [[Wut?|feeds it]] the blood of the &amp;quot;ultimate coward&amp;quot;. So - &amp;quot;some guy&amp;quot; organizes a fagfest to find the biggest pussybitch of them all. I suppose if [[you]] could somehow materialize into the game and [[DO IT FAGGOT|slit your writs]], you could win instantly.The whole DLC has a wrestling theme, probably an implied suggestion that their fans like watching sweaty men in spandex and/or they [[Fap|wrestle]] their microdicks way too much.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Sir Hammermydick&#039;s Big Fag Hunt&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You run around with this pseudo-posh cracka jack hunting &amp;quot;[[Niggers|rare animals]]&amp;quot; until some guy appears, demanding you leave all those niggers alone. And you go like &amp;quot;Lol no&amp;quot; and kill him too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Tiny Tina&#039;s Assault on Deez Nuts&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Fuck you, I&#039;m a dragon!]] This time around you&#039;re playing with a tomboyish lolita, with enough stolen material from Tolkien&#039;s mythology for him to do cartwheels in his grave. This dirty [[Jailbait|jailbait]] is the &amp;quot;game master&amp;quot;, tasking you with playing this abomination just to later realize this is just some cringe-inducing soap opera directed towards the death of that pussy-wiped nigger who dies at the end of the main game. They want you to feel remorse for pixels when the main gimmick of the game is killing shit with guns. Yeah, wrong demographic, fucktards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Classes==&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Trap|Lilith/Maya]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The game&#039;s mandatory [[woman|fuck-puppet]] with a [[MTF|deep voice]]. She can turn into a ghost and have sex with bad guys until they [[feminazi|submit to her]]. Her other special abilities include [[Kitchen|cooking and cleaning]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Nigger|Roland]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: A nigger who joined the military so that he could steal their guns. Incapable of sharing his emotions, the traits of his whole persona can be compared to a concrete block. His special ability lets him [[Team Fortress 2|deploy an automatic turret]]. The only black character in the game was added to mask racism, but was killed in the second game and replaced with a white douchenozzle, thus rendering the whole point devoid of its fucking meaning. After each successful kill, he is said to fuck his turrets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[ITG|Brick]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The brainless steroid infested bloated fuck from [[Gears of War]]. Suffers from [[RAEG|roid-rage]] and an acute case of micro-penis mixed with daddy issues and bipolar disorder, much like [[You|the player]]. Coincidentally, he uses this &#039;roiding as a special ability, [[The Incredible Hulk|hulkin&#039; out]] and fist-raping enemies while being [[Onision|sexually confused]].    &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Mexican|Mordecai]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The game&#039;s [[Vagina|bitch]] luchador, who&#039;s looking for some kind of repayment for [[life|the crap he&#039;s dealt with]] (Apparently, the [[awesome|sweet beard]] is insufficient).His special ability turns the game into Angry Birds (like they didn&#039;t take enough from other games).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Asperger&#039;s Syndrome|Autistic Guy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The guy who balanced his life by removing his face with a spatula while repeatedly shooting people in the head from a distance. Supposed to suffer from dementia, he was witnessed numerous times talking to himself in a sexual manner, probably an alter ego. A boner can be visible at all times while the subject is in action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Douchebag|Douche]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: This character was created to replace the [[Nigger|black man]] who was obviously so [[Last Thursday|2010]].Having the exact same abilities, the only difference now is that when he gets arrested, the cops won&#039;t start [[Fact|beating him for no reason]]. Basically, he&#039;s the love child of [[Faggot|Nathan Drake]] and [[Cracker|Steve Stifler]], with the [[You|mental capabilities of a spoon]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Mechanophilia|Mechromancer]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: An 18-year old girl who left her dad to die and ran away with her robotic blow up doll of death. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTj_Z8jl7HE She is also the most skill-required class to play] (hint: put your skill points in &amp;quot;Close Enough&amp;quot; and you can play with only one button). Also, don&#039;t forget to pay your 60 dollars if you want to fap her to death, you sick fuck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[retard|The Mentally Challenged]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: Pretty much like the Autistic Guy, except he can&#039;t use guns for shit and must be in [[Fucktard|tard]]-rage at all times to survive. Also, he likes to [[Islam|light himself on fire, blow himself up while shouting random nonsense that nobody understands]]. You also need to pay 60 dollars to play with this guy too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Enemies==&lt;br /&gt;
		&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Notahelghast.jpg|thumb|[[environmentalism|Environmentalists]] [[fap|jack off]] to this level of recycling.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Psycho: [[Batshit insane]] people who go around looting stuff in order to survive. They are everywhere and all they do is run directly towards you or stand in one place and shoot at you.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[BREADCRAB|Crabwormlarvae]]: Underground crab things that can be [http://www.getridofthings.com/get-rid-of-crabs.htm killed pretty easily]. &lt;br /&gt;
*[[Cock|Crimson Lance]]: A group of elite soldiers armed with powerful weapons and shields.They have a history of [[Marines|killing civilians and breaking the law]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Guardians: A swarm of [[Scilon|alien/robot things]] that fire lasers and stab you with [[Star Wars|lightsabers]].&lt;br /&gt;
*[[FYIAD|Rakks]]: A bunch of cliff racers bird-dragon dragon-bat-eagle things that fly around and annoy the player, causing them to waste ammo.  Not to worry, though, as ammo apparently grows on trees and is left just about everywhere. They drop health upon death, apparently carrying it in their dicks.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[xbox|Rakk Hive]]: Massive monsters on whicht Rakks live. They can rape you in a minute flat if you&#039;re not prepared. It&#039;s best to kill them by aiming for their eyes and spamming grenades.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Hypercube|Outriders]]: Outriders are bandits who drive around in cars, flipping people off and mooning them through the windshield. They can be completely ignored by launching a guided missile into their cars and running over their flaming corpses. This shouldn&#039;t be an issue as their driving is that of a blind Pomeranian who can&#039;t reach the pedals. &lt;br /&gt;
*[[Giant isopod|Scythid]]: Giant bug-like creatures. Attack in the same way that Skags do, except that some [[Jihad|blow up]] when killed up close.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[dogs|Skags]]: [[Zerg Rush|Zerg]] like [[Wimmins|dog]] creatures without assholes. They eat stuff and regurgitate anything they can&#039;t digest, from ammo and guns to dollar bills, because the point of logic is to ignore it completely. &lt;br /&gt;
*[[barrel roll|Spiderant]]:  The result of a natural phenomenon of ants and spiders fucking or just being an unimaginative Gearbox employee twat. Without eyes, they will always confuse the player character as a potential mate, and they will immediately start chasing you for the main purpose of [[Love|forcing]] you into their colony. Some advanced species don&#039;t even need to chase you anymore because they&#039;ve discovered a method to barrage you with hunks of [[Cum|jizz]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==ClapTrap==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Claptrap.jpg|thumb|right|110px|Claptrap... [[No|get it]]? [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonorrhea Clap] infested [[Trap|Trap]]... but in this case, [[Star Wars|just a midget in a metal box]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Cunt|ClapTraps]] (pronounced &#039;[[forced meme|forced meme]]&#039;) are the unicycled robots inhabiting the world of Borderlands, which you&#039;ll come across several times on your journey and are more or less designed to be the &amp;quot;comedic&amp;quot; sidekick of the game, giving you a brain tumour in the process. Unfortunately, Gearbox missed the mark by several miles in creating a popular &amp;quot;[[Portal|Companion Cube]]&amp;quot; like mascot character that&#039;s enduring and popular (Jew) to players, but what they didn&#039;t realize was that the idea of [[Star Wars|an annoying little robot that talked in a stupid electronic voice and went around dancing]] had already been used. They also took the name &amp;quot;ClapTrap&amp;quot; from [[Donkey Kong|another entertainment franchise worshiped by nerds]]. ClapTraps are living proof that robots can develop [[Assburgers|Asperger&#039;s syndrome]].&lt;br /&gt;

==[[Duke Nukem]] Demo==&lt;br /&gt;
When you bought Borderlands Game of the Year edition, besides getting all the DLC that [[you]] had already wasted forty bucks on, you also got access to an exclusive Duke Nukem demo on all systems.  Though if you got the game through [[Steam]] and used the best [[PC|console]], you could just download the demo anyway. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Borderlands 3: Pushing A Turd Down Hill==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Borderlands 3: the highly anticipated sequel in the Borderlands series, where Gearbox Software somehow managed to pack in even more explosions, wisecracking characters, and improbable weaponry, proving once again that you don’t need to reinvent the wheel when you can just slap a few more spikes on it and call it a day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Plot: Or the Lack Thereof===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Borderlands 3, players return to the lawless wastelands of Pandora, which, despite being blown up, burnt down, and repeatedly shot to pieces in previous installments, still manages to provide endless entertainment. This time, the player characters, dubbed the Vault Hunters, are up against the Calypso twins, Tyreen and Troy, a pair of insufferably edgy streamers whose primary goal is to annoy you into submission with their incessant vlogging and penchant for viral hashtags.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Vault Hunters===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The game introduces four new Vault Hunters, each one more absurd than the last:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Zane Flynt&#039;&#039;&#039;, the Irish stereotype who shoots first and asks questions never.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Amara&#039;&#039;&#039;, the brawler who punches first and... also asks questions never.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Moze&#039;&#039;&#039;, the mech pilot who thought playing a first-person shooter inside a first-person shooter was a good idea.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;FL4K&#039;&#039;&#039; the pet-loving robot who somehow has more emotional depth than the entirety of the supporting cast.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gameplay: Button Mashing and Loot Grabbing===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The core gameplay of Borderlands 3 remains unchanged, because why fix what’s broken? Players will spend countless hours shooting, looting, and wondering why they’re still playing. The game’s notorious for its “gazillion guns,” most of which you’ll discard within minutes for the next marginally better one. Highlights include guns that walk, guns that talk, and guns that shoot other guns because, apparently, Gearbox ran out of ideas sometime in 2011.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Humor: Forced and Farcical===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Borderlands 3 tries very hard to be funny. So hard, in fact, that it ends up being the video game equivalent of that one friend who still quotes Monty Python sketches verbatim. The humor is a mix of juvenile gags, forced memes, and characters screaming at you about how wacky and zany they are. The writing team apparently had a quota to fill for &amp;quot;quirky dialogue,&amp;quot; resulting in interactions that range from mildly amusing to painfully awkward.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Graphics: Next-Gen Cell Shading===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Geartwat stuck with the signature cell-shaded art style, presumably because it’s easier to draw squiggly lines than realistic textures. The vibrant, comic-book look still holds up, mainly because it’s the only thing stopping the game from looking like a post-apocalyptic version of Farmville.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Multiplayer: Mayhem and Mediocrity===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Playing Borderlands 3 with friends is akin to herding cats with flamethrowers. The game shines brightest in co-op, where you can collectively marvel at the sheer stupidity of the plot and simultaneously despair over the repetitive loot grind. Just be prepared for the inevitable lag spikes and connection issues, a staple feature in any modern multiplayer game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===DLC: The Never-Ending Story===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gearfag, never one to miss an opportunity to milk the cash cow, released a slew of DLCs that promise to extend the Borderlands experience well beyond its welcome. From fighting off Lovecraftian horrors to attending Handsome Jack&#039;s posthumous bachelor party, the DLCs ensure that if you weren’t tired of the game by the end of the main campaign, you certainly will be after the expansions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===A Glorious Mess===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Borderlands 3 is exactly what you’d expect: more guns, more explosions, and more over-the-top antics. It’s a game that doesn’t take itself seriously, which is fortunate because no one else does either. Despite its flaws, it’s an entertaining romp through a world where logic takes a backseat to lunacy, and that’s precisely why it remains beloved by fans and a laughingstock to everyone else. Enjoy the ride, and don’t forget to set your expectations to low and your volume to mute.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trolling==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===[[Fanbois]]===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Ask where the [[Banhammer|REAL]] [[Wood|melee]] [[Pipe|weapons]] are.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ask for modded stuff.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mention the words [[Fallout|&amp;quot;fall&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;out&amp;quot;]] in the same sentence on a Borderlands forum.&lt;br /&gt;
* Telling them an assault rifle with 97% accuracy and 215 damage isn&#039;t nearly as satisfying as having a life.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them the following based on which character they play&lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Lilith, it is because they desperately want a girlfriend and will never get laid.&lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Roland, it is because they are a [[wigger]], or possibly a [[chav]]. &lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Brick, it is because they are a [[fat]] fuck who wishes he had chunk-power.&lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Mordecai, it is because they want to be a badass but are afraid to leave the basement.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them that WoW is an MMO that has more than just four players per server.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them &#039;&#039;[[Wolfenstein]]&#039;&#039; had better graphics.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them that an original art style doesn&#039;t mean jack shit [[Gears Of War|if the only colors used are gray and brown]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Ask them if the game ends once you get to Vault 13.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them you have the &amp;quot;Troll Repeater Pistol&amp;quot; and want to trade it for a hex for your Diablo character.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them the game is overrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Online [[Lulz|Tips]] ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Equip your character with the [[Vampire|&amp;quot;Transfusion&amp;quot;]] grenade modifier and start a duel with your partner(s). Works best as Brick in a [[asshole|tight, confined space]] (Lost Cave, some Arenas, etc.) with about 5-6 grenades, and bonus points if you scream &amp;quot;[[Terrorist|ALLAHU AKBAR!]]&amp;quot; while doing so.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Leeroy Jenkins|As Roland or Brick, take off aimlessly into a dangerous area]] full of [[ITG|&amp;quot;Badass&amp;quot;]] bandits, skags, etc., then run back to your teammate(s) and either keep running and [[Dox|turn around to see if they survive]], or [[You don&#039;t have any friends|quit and see if you&#039;ll even play together again]].&lt;br /&gt;
* As Lilith, four words: [[Hax|Phasewalk the entire duel.]]&lt;br /&gt;
* As Brick, scream the entire time you beat up Roland bare-handed, &amp;quot;PUNCH [[NIGGERS|SOLDIERS]] RECEIVE [[Cake|GUNS]]!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
* As Mordecai, or possibly Roland, run off from your group and hide out in a house or somewhere unseen around a bandit spawn-point, and &amp;quot;blend in&amp;quot; as your partners get raped. When they&#039;re near death, run over to them, heal them, [[pussy|THEN challenge them to a duel]].&lt;br /&gt;
*As Roland, constantly ask where the [[white]] [[wimminz]] at, even if Lilith&#039;s in the group. [[Trap|ESPECIALLY if Lilith&#039;s in the group]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Get yourself a modded gun and shield, so that you can kill anything and be unkillable. Then go into a game with noobs and continuously demand duels with them. Bonus points if you&#039;re in the middle of a fight. Win and claim that you have skillz or rub it in their face. Demand another duel. Win and rub. Repeat.&lt;br /&gt;
*Join low-level games, kill bosses, and steal all the loot.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Help&amp;quot; new players with boss battles by escorting them there, and then wandering off to do something more important. When they ask what you&#039;re doing, respond with &amp;quot;Did you not get the message? There are more jobs available at the New Haven bounty board. You kill him, and I&#039;ll go get the mission&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*As the driver, crash the car.&lt;br /&gt;
*Make up a class mod. Say a boss dropped it, and refuse to trade it for anything.&lt;br /&gt;
*Constantly ask to &amp;quot;borrow&amp;quot; money.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{Spoiler|Turns out, the Vault isn’t a treasure trove after all, it’s actually a sex dungeon run by a mischievous tentacle blob and Guardian Angel’ is basically just a budget Cortana knockoff from Halo}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Boredomlands logo.jpg|center|900px]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Borderlands box art.jpg|thumb|This whole game summed up in one picture.]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Borderlands player.jpg|thumb|...and the fanboys, dear baby Jesus.]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Borderlands vs fallout.jpg|thumb|[[Fallout]] vs. Borderlands, let the retardation begin.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Borderlands&#039;&#039;&#039; is a revolutionary video game concept: imagine [[Fallout 3]], but crank up the combat to be more like [[Halo]] and World of [[Warcraft]], throw in randomizing technology à la Rogue, use graphics that look like [[Team Fortress 2]] had a baby with a [[PlayStation 2]] game, swipe character ideas from Killzone, [[Gears of War]], and 80s slasher flicks, and slap on a Mad Max theme. Picture a lawless planet brimming with generic, violent, deranged lunatics. Oh, and don&#039;t forget to drain out any semblance of innovation. Clearly, a masterpiece was born.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only reason anyone bought this game was probably because they thought it was an expansion for the original [[Fallout 3]]. Instead, they got &amp;quot;[[Retard|LOTS OF FREAKIN&#039; PURDY GUNZ!!!]]&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since its release, [[Borderlands]] has sold 4.5 million units worldwide, proving once and for all that running around with a machine gun shooting random pedestrians is apparently great for the environment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Oblivion with Guns (A.K.A. Borderlands)==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Oblivion with guns.jpg|center|450px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{quote|On the delightful deathtrap known as Pandora, a paradise teeming with charming bandits and delightful perils, there&#039;s a singular, irresistible allure: The Vault. It&#039;s the galaxy&#039;s most obvious secret, beckoning every treasure hunter, adrenaline junkie, and hopelessly clueless buffoon from across the cosmos.|Borderlands, don&#039;t forget your Pip-Boy.}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#039;s not kid ourselves. &amp;quot;Borderlands&amp;quot;? More like &amp;quot;Oblivion with Guns, Minus the Oblivion.&amp;quot; This game throws you into the boots of a mercenary who you&#039;ll probably never care about, with a backstory so thin it might as well be nonexistent. Welcome to Pandora, a planet so anarchic and godforsaken, it&#039;s basically a desert devoid of any gigantic, blue, Native American-esque aliens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Motivated by the purest form of altruism – the desire to get filthy rich – you embark on a quest to find a legendary stash of powerful alien technology hidden in a place charmingly referred to as &amp;quot;The Vault.&amp;quot; As a &amp;quot;Vault Hunter,&amp;quot; you&#039;re on a noble mission to uncover a mythical treasure trove.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Naturally, the entire game builds up to the momentous occasion of opening this vault. And what do you find inside? Riches? Weapons? Nah. Instead, you&#039;re greeted by a tentacle-blob-alien with the IQ of a houseplant, which apparently got itself stuck in the vault eons ago. The grand climax involves resisting the urge to scream as you unload three cargo ships worth of ammo into this oversized jello monster with limbs, all while wielding your array of so-called &amp;quot;innovative&amp;quot; guns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Spoiler alert: There’s no treasure, no hidden stash of alien weaponry. Just a gigantic, jiggly alien to blast into oblivion. Revel in the thrilling anti-climax!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Gameplay==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Borderlands gameplay.jpg|left|400px|thumb|Typical gameplay.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The essence of this game can be boiled down to a single, mind-bogglingly complex formula:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shoot &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt; Find New Gun &amp;gt; Shoot &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt; Find New Gun &amp;gt; Shoot &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt; Find New Gun&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ready for the next grueling challenge? Fill in the blanks to prove your readiness:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shoot &amp;gt; &amp;gt; Find New Gun &amp;gt; &amp;gt; Kill &amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Congratulations if you succeeded! You are now officially as sharp as a Gibbon monkey.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt; Caution: Proceed with care, dimwits.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Playing this game is like enduring a ten-hour marathon on the toilet after a feast of nails and razorblades. The sole redeeming moment of this ordeal is when it mercifully concludes. For those with a penchant for sadomasochism, the challenge might be to see it through to the bitter end, akin to shoving a glass jar up your rear and patiently waiting for the inevitable shattering. The visuals? Imagine a bombed-out wasteland peppered with tent-cities. Every time you perish due to your shield&#039;s laughable durability, you get to respawn at a &amp;quot;New-U Station,&amp;quot; which not only empties your pockets with each resurrection but leaves you bankrupt after four deaths, all while it mockingly bestows upon you a third nipple and a shriveled ego as a &amp;quot;bonus.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After pilfering everything from Fallout 3, you&#039;d think Gearbox Software would at least nab the fast travel system. Think again. Instead, they opted for the genius move of installing random terminals you have to hike to and manually activate in places they deemed &amp;quot;useful.&amp;quot; Predictably, these are situated in the most inconvenient, counterproductive spots imaginable, rather than, oh, I don&#039;t know, having it accessible at all times.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Missions===&lt;br /&gt;
Imagine World of Warcraft but with a plot twist – there are only four people on the server. Yes, four. That’s the kind of thrilling social engagement you get. Every single mission feels like a twisted version of a kindergarten scavenger hunt:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;I Want/Lost X&amp;quot; Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; These are the missions where NPCs treat you like their personal errand boy. They lose random items, and somehow it’s your job to find them. Your reward? Some loot that makes you wonder why you bothered.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;This Guy is a Faggot, Go Kill Him&amp;quot; Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; These missions are as subtle as a sledgehammer. Someone doesn’t like someone else, and naturally, you have to play hitman. Your reward? Another shiny thing that barely justifies the effort.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In summary, you’re stuck doing the same mind-numbing tasks repeatedly. The real kicker? You actually paid for this endless loop of mediocrity. Enjoy the grind!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Weapons===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Prudy guns.jpg|300px|thumb|[[ZOMG]] prudy guns!]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Budd dwyer.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Budd Dwyer approves Jakobs, because it really only requires one shot.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the hilariously dysfunctional world of weapons, where logic takes a backseat and absurdity drives the car. Here are the nine types of weapons you&#039;ll find (ten if you count melee, and eleven if you consider Brick&#039;s fists). Each weapon comes with a brand offering different bonuses, and some even have elemental damage for that extra spice. Let’s dive in:&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Pistols:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The balanced choice for total noobs. If you’re still using these, congratulations on your first day in the game!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Revolvers:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* Think of the .357 Magnum from Half-Life 2 but now imbued with magical powers and a reload time that gives you enough coffee breaks to write a novel. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;SMGs:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Hold down the trigger and watch it rain bullets like you’re trying to water your garden. Precision? Never heard of it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Shotguns:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* Designed exclusively for obliterating faces at point-blank range. Perfect for when subtlety is not in your vocabulary. IN THE FUCKING FACE!!!11!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Assault Rifles:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Basically SMGs on steroids with magazines that empty faster than your will to live during a family reunion. Ideal for those who think bigger is always better, even when it’s not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Rocket Launchers:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
* Surprisingly, these are less effective than a water pistol at a BBQ. Only recommended for use when you feel like making a big, flashy mistake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Sniper Rifles:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* For the wannabe headshot maestro. Prepare for endless screams of “BOOM HEADSHOT!” while you miss half your shots. The epitome of overconfidence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Alien Weapons:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Straight out of Xenu’s personal stash. Use these to steamroll through the game because balance is overrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Grenades:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Ideal for spamming and re-spawn trolling. Most are about as useful as a chocolate teapot, except the life-stealing ones, which are actually kind of cool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Manufacturers ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just like in the real world, there&#039;s a massive monopoly on guns, and boy, do these companies suck. Let&#039;s take a tour through the crappiest gun manufacturers around:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Jakobs:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;If it takes more than one shot, then you weren&#039;t using Jakobs.&amp;quot; Yeah, because your first shot will probably misfire or explode in your hand.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Maliwan:&#039;&#039;&#039; Their guns shoot explosions, fire, electricity, or vomit. Perfect for when you want your enemies to die in a spectacular, yet utterly impractical, manner.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Tediore:&#039;&#039;&#039; Specializing in shitty repeaters, their guns suck so much ass that they&#039;re more effective when you throw them away in frustration than when you actually fire them.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Torgue:&#039;&#039;&#039; These shotguns have high damage but can&#039;t hit the broad side of a barn. Seriously, what the hell were you expecting from a company whose motto should be &amp;quot;Aim is optional&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Vladof:&#039;&#039;&#039; Rifles that fire like AK-47s on speed. You won&#039;t know if you&#039;re hitting the target, but hey, at least you&#039;ll feel like you&#039;re in a 1980s action movie. Perfect for commies and spray-and-pray enthusiasts.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Atlas:&#039;&#039;&#039; They act like jerks to every other company because their guns are allegedly superior. Spoiler alert: They&#039;re not. It&#039;s like a hipster coffee shop bragging about their overpriced, burnt-tasting brews.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Hyperion:&#039;&#039;&#039; Selling super expensive garbage that no one in their right mind would buy. Unless you enjoy burning money, then go ahead.&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Dahl:&#039;&#039;&#039; All their weapons come with high recoil, so you better have arms of steel. But who cares about hitting your target when you can get a good workout?&lt;br /&gt;
* &lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;S&amp;amp;S Munitions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Just don’t even bother. They make Tediore look like weapons-grade genius.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the wonderful world of subpar armaments, where every shot is a gamble and every brand has its own unique way of disappointing you!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
TL;DR - &#039;&#039;&#039;LOTSA NEW FUCKIN &#039;PURDY GUNZ!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with any money-grubbing scheme, Queerbox Software couldn&#039;t resist dropping a few hundred overpriced, glorified pieces of garbage with next to no gameplay value, just to milk their gullible fanbase. The development process? Oh, it was a masterpiece of lazy genius: they shamelessly ripped off every successful franchise they could think of and blended it all into a steaming pile of crap, because hey, morons will buy anything, right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Zombie]] Island of Dr. Ned&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The game&#039;s first DLC is the pinnacle of horror movie clichés, a cheap excuse to churn out the laziest garbage as quickly as possible. What we got was a monstrosity combining the worst of Left 4 Dead zombies and Resident Evil crows, because why not? The game introduces Frankensteins and &amp;quot;Were-Skags&amp;quot; – exactly what you&#039;d expect: werewolves made out of bug-dogs and humans. Riveting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The plot? Oh, it&#039;s a masterpiece. You help &amp;quot;Dr. Ze&amp;quot; (oops, I mean &amp;quot;Ned&amp;quot;) deal with a zombie outbreak he caused because he threw a hissy fit over people constantly stealing his popcorn. At first, it&#039;s an infuriating, tedious grind that feels just like the main game – in other words, pure trash. What a shocker.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then, the Crimson Lance zombies show up, and you&#039;re thrown into a never-ending firefight with hordes of vomiting pseudo-zombie morons. This joyous experience ends with a thrilling escape in a missile-shaped pod, complete with plenty of &amp;quot;fuck-you&amp;quot; banter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And just when you thought it couldn&#039;t get worse, some nonsense goes down in a lumber yard. You &amp;quot;meet&amp;quot; knock-off Shaggy and Scooby, battle a giant zombified &amp;quot;Dr. Ned&amp;quot;, and complete other mind-numbing tasks that exist solely to give you more experience points and a couple of decent weapons. Clearly, this is the best content ever made. Bravo, truly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[THUNDERDOME|Mad Moxxi&#039;s Underdome Riot]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, the second DLC – because one steaming pile of recycled content wasn’t enough! Not surprisingly, it’s a blatant rip-off of Mad Max, with a generous sprinkle of Gears of War and Doom thrown in for good measure. To even scratch the surface of its so-called potential, you’ll need a ridiculous number of active friends online – because misery loves company, right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enter Mad Moxxi, the epitome of a character designed by a committee of teenage boys. She&#039;s the “ultimate definition of a whore,” because apparently, that’s what it takes to be the boss of a gang in this creative black hole. But not just any gang – no, she wants the biggest, baddest, ballsiest bastards on this butt-ugly planet to join her crew.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So here we are, in the snowy hell-pits and crater-loaded death-hills, where you and your equally unfortunate friends must shoot things in a desperate bid to control the “GRAETEST ARENA EVAR!” Because nothing says &amp;quot;fun&amp;quot; like mindlessly blasting away in a virtual wasteland.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This time around, you get some half-decent armor – not that it matters. You&#039;ll probably just trade it for some rocks and keep playing &amp;quot;Find the Siren,&amp;quot; because apparently, the developers decided to make hide-and-seek the pinnacle of gaming excitement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So strap in, folks, and prepare for another round of mind-numbing drudgery, courtesy of the second DLC. Who needs originality when you’ve got a melting pot of clichés and a whole lot of hate to fuel your journey? Enjoy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;The Secret Whorehouse of General [[Gay|Fagg]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The third DLC essentially throws more vehicles, more guns, and more vast, empty landscapes at you, featuring nothing but blatant Half-Life rip-offs. The story? Oh, it’s a masterpiece of absurdity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, there’s this chick named Athena who decides she&#039;s done with her Crimson Lance &amp;quot;duties&amp;quot; (wink, wink) and bolts from some guy called General Knoxx, who is apparently her pimp. Knoxx, in his infinite wisdom, sends his other “ladies” to drag her back. Enter some dude named Skank (seriously, that’s his name) who manages to capture her, despite Athena having a freaking teleporter. Genius move, Athena.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For reasons beyond comprehension, you step in, kill Skank, and help Athena escape. Fast forward, you encounter Knoxx again, who’s gone full emo and is on the verge of becoming a self-inflicted casualty. Naturally, you kill him. And what’s your reward? A whole three minutes to enjoy his &amp;quot;whorehouse.&amp;quot; Riveting stuff.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As the plot (if you can call it that) thickens, you discover that Moxxi is Scooter&#039;s mom, Skank was her second husband, and Marcus is her third. The family tree of dysfunction doesn&#039;t stop there, though. In the grand finale, you face off against a Giant Enemy Crab. Yep, you read that right. A giant, freaking crab. Because why not? It’s the cherry on top of this absurd DLC sundae.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Crap|Craptrap]]&#039;s Failed Robot Revolution&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The fourth DLC is the ultimate dumpster fire, gifting you a collection of even shittier guns to face Hyperion&#039;s laughable version of the Crimson Lance. This masterpiece of brokenness was released in a state that only a developer&#039;s worst enemy could love, taking about a month to patch up. You couldn&#039;t level up, couldn&#039;t snag any achievements or trophies, and were blessed with a view of every unfinished quest from the brainless morons you played with online, drowning your own missions in a sea of pointless, low-level garbage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Enter the ninja Claptrap – because regular Claptraps weren’t enough of a headache. This stealthy piece of junk unites all the Claptraps in a glorious revolt, repurposing the corpses of every bad guy you&#039;ve already killed a million times into even more irritating robots. Hyperion, in their infinite wisdom (read: stupidity), tasks you with stopping the so-called Robolution, which is just a fancy way of saying &amp;quot;kill the same annoying robots over and over again.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The silver lining? You get a free pass to obliterate Claptraps for the sake of &amp;quot;great justice.&amp;quot; Yes, you can blow those little nuisances to bits endlessly, because the game generously provides an infinite supply. Meanwhile, some genius named Tannis wants you to gather Claptrap parts so she can craft a giant dildo. Yes, you read that right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you&#039;ve slogged through the story, your OCD will inevitably kick in, compelling you to collect a bunch of random junk: at least three Pink Panties, five Goldfish, fifteen Pizzas, five pairs of 3D Glasses, fifteen Bobble-Heads, and twenty-five Cans of Oil that only drop after you&#039;ve massacred at least 100 enemies. This means you&#039;ll be killing Craptraps for three weeks straight – if you&#039;re an absolute idiot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And there you have it, the fourth DLC: a festival of frustration, pointless quests, and an endless parade of idiotic collectibles. Enjoy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Borderlands 2: Electric Boogaloo==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Spoiler|The Angel is Handsome Jack&#039;s daughter and has been playing you from the start, Roland and The Angel die, the Vault contains just another boss, and there are a million other vaults at the end for a terrible, pointless, drawn-out series of sequels nobody wants}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Boredomlands2 logo.jpg|center|900px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first game was announced as soon as Gearbox realized that their customer base has the shared IQ of a door knob, and as a result, the first game made a lot of [[Jew]] gold. The game features such innovations as &amp;quot;brand-new&amp;quot; characters and re-skins of the old guns. It has four [[Original_character|original]] and is totally not the same as the last game&#039;s characters, because they have different names and/or skin color. A [[wimmin|Siren]], some Mexican &amp;quot;berserker&amp;quot; who [[whut|dual wields guns instead of punching]], a weeaboo [[Asperger&#039;s_Syndrome|sperglord]] with four fingers who speaks (mostly to himself) in [[Japan|haiku]] ([[Shit Nobody Cares About|you know, weeaboo literature shit]]), and a soldier that is obviously different. DLC characters include a [[jailbait|18-year-old girl]] who has sex with robots and a mental retard who enjoys [[Muslim|blowing himself up]]. Their purpose is to milk you out of your ten dollars because we all know you&#039;re not going to play with all four of the characters in the first place, but you&#039;re [[gullible]] enough to pay for any shit they shove down your throat. Good going, Jackass! As a bonus, this game sold 13 million copies worldwide—for a recycled heap of shit. Demonstrating once and for all that &amp;quot;birds of a feather flock together.&amp;quot; isn&#039;t just a gay-ass idiom&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Plot==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Five years after the first game, a company called Hyperion builds a monopoly over a new resource with a stupid name, after it got out of the first vault, infecting the crust of the planet in the process, or some stupid shit like that. Therefore, Hyperion takes over the planet and installs a totalitarian regime ruled by Handsome Jack, the company&#039;s CEO. Whoopty fuckin&#039; doo. Later, news gets out that another hidden vault could be found on Pandora, thus giving a universal reason for dipshits to keep flocking to this wasteland.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The whole game is a mixture of shit that nobody cares about, including joining a resistance force and opposing Hyperion while doing some bland crap in the process. The newly, fresh-cut mongoloids get to interact with the old characters from the first game while you get bombarded by our favorite autistic robot, &amp;quot;ClapTrap,&amp;quot; with a plethora of annoying gestures and phonic pollution. The Sirens now have enhanced powers because they apparently drilled their cunts with uranium.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The resistance base gets fucked up by Hyperion, and after a long, unwanted, boring drama, all the characters join forces to fight Hyperion. In the epic battle that ensues, you kill Jack&#039;s daughter, Angel, who gets all emo and actually requests the pawnage, and in return, Jack kills a nigger, because all niggers die in plotlines. You then learn the location of the second vault, where you encounter Jack and fight him, but the faggot opens the vault and releases the giant lava-dragon thing from within. After emptying a cargo jet of bullets into its perineum, you get to shoot Handsome Jack in the face. Vive la Resistance!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the end, it&#039;s shown that there are over a trillion vaults all over the fuckin&#039; universe, implying with a subtle hint that they can recycle this franchise ad infinitum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Gameplay==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Buy3.png|thumb|If you don&#039;t have four copies, you are [[gay]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Borderlands 2&#039;&#039;&#039; is basically the same game as the first one. Literally. Everything they used in the first one is also in the second, including elements from: [[Diablo II|Diablo]], [[Halo|Halo]], [[Fallout|Fallout 3]], [[Team Fortress 2]], [[World of Warcraft]], [[Gears Of War]], [[Pedophilia|Looney Tunes]], [[Faggot|Mad Max]], [[Resident Evil 5|Resident Evil]], [[Doom]], [[Left 4 Dead]], and [[Dancing With Smurfs|Avatar]], all mashed-up together in a steamy pile of [[Delicious Cake|cow dung]], some tool on [[Liar|Wikipedia]] described as &amp;quot;[[Fallout|first-person role-playing shooter]]&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can still only choose between four playable characters, each recycled from the first game but plastered with a different paint job, to trick the apes who buy the game. Each has their own unique abilities, such as [[Angry Birds|throwing a bird]] at your enemies or turning invisible and falling off a cliff. Do we still have to mention that the abilities are also recycled? I mean, everything else in the game is, including: [[Fact|monsters, guns, vehicles, containers, and landscapes]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The game has [[Over_9000|a lot]] of guns, but every gun is worse than the previous one you had, so it doesn&#039;t really matter. Plus a plethora of [[Halo]]-esque shields and far too many grenade mods. The game is a button-mashing grind-fest. All you do is complete boring, repetitive missions that revolve around whoring yourself for random non-player characters, [[Your Mom|doing their bidding for rewards]], and shooting the same enemies over and over again-[[k/|BUT WITH DIFFERENT GUNZ]]!!! You will spend 99% of the game, whether on foot or by car, just getting to your destination and getting stuck in cacti while being [[Love|gang banged]] by wildlife. The driving can be simulated in real life by force feeding yourself bleach and/or seventy-five pellets of mescaline, while riding a unicycle directly with your ass on a 2 cm wide rope between the [[Azn|Petronas Twin Towers]], so you just end up walking. This probably has something to do with it being on [[Avatar|Pandora]] so walking everywhere makes you more [[Al Gore|green]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;youtube&amp;gt;sGZefn3GiKQ&amp;lt;/youtube&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;The game is not broken at all.&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{quote|Borderlands is all about the journey, not the destination, and like most trips, this one is much better when you have some friends along for the ride.|Borderlands, [[Fact|because there&#039;s only ten hours worth of gameplay here]].}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Manufacturers: Electric Boogaloo ===&lt;br /&gt;
Since the weapons from the first game sucked shit, the developers decided to add even more crap to them in the second game. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Jakobs&#039;&#039;&#039;: To finish a clip, you must now [[figging|spam your fire button]].&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Maliwan&#039;&#039;&#039;: Same shit but with the new purple-puke element. That only weakens the enemy so you can finish them off with a different weapon.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Tediore&#039;&#039;&#039;: Exploding garbage. Don&#039;t even bother to fire their weapons, or even use them. All their guns look like toys.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;TORGUE &#039;&#039;&#039;: NOBODY WANTS THEIR GODDAMN CRAP BECAUSE THEIR BULLETS ARE SLOWER THAN MY GRANDMA!! THE ONLY GOOD GUN, &amp;quot;UNKEMPT HAROLD&amp;quot;, IS USED BY 90% OF THE MOTHERFUCKING PLAYERS WHO ARE STILL PLAYING THIS FUCKING SHIT!! ALSO... EXPLOSIONS?!&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Vladof&#039;&#039;&#039;: Automatic firing on everything.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Atlas Hyperion&#039;&#039;&#039;: Their guns increase accuracy when firing, so there&#039;s a 100% guarantee you&#039;ll hit something.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Bandits&#039;&#039;&#039;: All their guns, except the rocket launcher, are shit.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;E-Tech&#039;&#039;&#039;: The new useless &amp;quot;alien&amp;quot; weapons that are meant to eat your ammo.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Dahl&#039;&#039;&#039;: Aside from the burst fire when zoomed in, they are still worthless in comparison to Vladof.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Downloadable content==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
TL;DR - &#039;&#039;&#039;WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU EXPECT?!!&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Habitual life-sucking parasites like video game developers are an unwanted, straightforward exploitation of their dimwitted customer base by effortlessly creating thousands upon thousands of worthless and recycled downloadable content that they preemptively plan and develop before the actual main game is even finished. In this article, we will solely focus on the campaign DLC, which contains some sort of [[Shit|substance]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate [[Ass|Booty]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Emphasis on ass, the story revolves around a [[Oxymoron|pirate queen]], because we all know pirates weren&#039;t a bunch of syphilitic misogynistic drunkards whose main occupation besides murdering each other was not forcing [[Whores|women]] to swallow cannon balls with their ass, but apparently in this game they all decided to hold hands and follow one for no apparent fucking reason. The main excuse these pirates have for obeying this bitch is that she&#039;s [[Bullshit|courageous and deadly]], not because they were promised treasure. The only pirate [[Women|womyn]] in history were insufferable dykes that followed every step from the hypergamy rule book in order to fuck their way into a crew and/or up the social hierarchy, having their fuckholes the size of the Tsar Bomba crater at the end of their &amp;quot;careers&amp;quot;. Anyway, disregarding 7th grade history, uptight nitpicking, and logic, we are presented with dem pirates. But wait a minute! They aren&#039;t your normal sticking pirates! No siree! They are known as [[Sandniggers|sand pirates]]. They have AK-47s and they ride camels and stuff. The story goes that a vast ocean once stood in the place of the now arid desert, filled with normal boring-ass pirates. So Geartwat Shitware came and sucked out all the water, being very proficient at sucking [[Cocks|things]], as we know. Nevertheless, this didn&#039;t stop the pirates from pirating. What exactly? I do not know. Caravans maybe? Possibly. But aren&#039;t they just regular robbers? It doesn&#039;t matter, you get to shoot shit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Mr. Torgue&#039;s Campaign of Faggorty&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s about a fucking vault! Wooooooooooooowwww, Bro! [[Holy shit|Holy fucking shit]], who could have thought? I mean, the range, right? Besides the immense brainstorming Geartwat did in-between breaks from swimming in your cash, the &amp;quot;story&amp;quot; is shorter than my dick. The Vault will open once someone [[Wut?|feeds it]] the blood of the &amp;quot;ultimate coward&amp;quot;. So - &amp;quot;some guy&amp;quot; organizes a fagfest to find the biggest pussybitch of them all. I suppose if [[you]] could somehow materialize into the game and [[DO IT FAGGOT|slit your writs]], you could win instantly.The whole DLC has a wrestling theme, probably an implied suggestion that their fans like watching sweaty men in spandex and/or they [[Fap|wrestle]] their microdicks way too much.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Sir Hammermydick&#039;s Big Fag Hunt&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You run around with this pseudo-posh cracka jack hunting &amp;quot;[[Niggers|rare animals]]&amp;quot; until some guy appears, demanding you leave all those niggers alone. And you go like &amp;quot;Lol no&amp;quot; and kill him too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Tiny Tina&#039;s Assault on Deez Nuts&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Fuck you, I&#039;m a dragon!]] This time around you&#039;re playing with a tomboyish lolita, with enough stolen material from Tolkien&#039;s mythology for him to do cartwheels in his grave. This dirty [[Jailbait|jailbait]] is the &amp;quot;game master&amp;quot;, tasking you with playing this abomination just to later realize this is just some cringe-inducing soap opera directed towards the death of that pussy-wiped nigger who dies at the end of the main game. They want you to feel remorse for pixels when the main gimmick of the game is killing shit with guns. Yeah, wrong demographic, fucktards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Classes==&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Trap|Lilith/Maya]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The game&#039;s mandatory [[woman|fuck-puppet]] with a [[MTF|deep voice]]. She can turn into a ghost and have sex with bad guys until they [[feminazi|submit to her]]. Her other special abilities include [[Kitchen|cooking and cleaning]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Nigger|Roland]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: A nigger who joined the military so that he could steal their guns. Incapable of sharing his emotions, the traits of his whole persona can be compared to a concrete block. His special ability lets him [[Team Fortress 2|deploy an automatic turret]]. The only black character in the game was added to mask racism, but was killed in the second game and replaced with a white douchenozzle, thus rendering the whole point devoid of its fucking meaning. After each successful kill, he is said to fuck his turrets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[ITG|Brick]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The brainless steroid infested bloated fuck from [[Gears of War]]. Suffers from [[RAEG|roid-rage]] and an acute case of micro-penis mixed with daddy issues and bipolar disorder, much like [[You|the player]]. Coincidentally, he uses this &#039;roiding as a special ability, [[The Incredible Hulk|hulkin&#039; out]] and fist-raping enemies while being [[Onision|sexually confused]].    &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Mexican|Mordecai]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The game&#039;s [[Vagina|bitch]] luchador, who&#039;s looking for some kind of repayment for [[life|the crap he&#039;s dealt with]] (Apparently, the [[awesome|sweet beard]] is insufficient).His special ability turns the game into Angry Birds (like they didn&#039;t take enough from other games).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Asperger&#039;s Syndrome|Autistic Guy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: The guy who balanced his life by removing his face with a spatula while repeatedly shooting people in the head from a distance. Supposed to suffer from dementia, he was witnessed numerous times talking to himself in a sexual manner, probably an alter ego. A boner can be visible at all times while the subject is in action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Douchebag|Douche]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: This character was created to replace the [[Nigger|black man]] who was obviously so [[Last Thursday|2010]].Having the exact same abilities, the only difference now is that when he gets arrested, the cops won&#039;t start [[Fact|beating him for no reason]]. Basically, he&#039;s the love child of [[Faggot|Nathan Drake]] and [[Cracker|Steve Stifler]], with the [[You|mental capabilities of a spoon]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Mechanophilia|Mechromancer]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: An 18-year old girl who left her dad to die and ran away with her robotic blow up doll of death. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTj_Z8jl7HE She is also the most skill-required class to play] (hint: put your skill points in &amp;quot;Close Enough&amp;quot; and you can play with only one button). Also, don&#039;t forget to pay your 60 dollars if you want to fap her to death, you sick fuck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[[retard|The Mentally Challenged]]&#039;&#039;&#039;: Pretty much like the Autistic Guy, except he can&#039;t use guns for shit and must be in [[Fucktard|tard]]-rage at all times to survive. Also, he likes to [[Islam|light himself on fire, blow himself up while shouting random nonsense that nobody understands]]. You also need to pay 60 dollars to play with this guy too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Enemies==&lt;br /&gt;
		&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Notahelghast.jpg|thumb|[[environmentalism|Environmentalists]] [[fap|jack off]] to this level of recycling.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Psycho: [[Batshit insane]] people who go around looting stuff in order to survive. They are everywhere and all they do is run directly towards you or stand in one place and shoot at you.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[BREADCRAB|Crabwormlarvae]]: Underground crab things that can be [http://www.getridofthings.com/get-rid-of-crabs.htm killed pretty easily]. &lt;br /&gt;
*[[Cock|Crimson Lance]]: A group of elite soldiers armed with powerful weapons and shields.They have a history of [[Marines|killing civilians and breaking the law]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Guardians: A swarm of [[Scilon|alien/robot things]] that fire lasers and stab you with [[Star Wars|lightsabers]].&lt;br /&gt;
*[[FYIAD|Rakks]]: A bunch of cliff racers bird-dragon dragon-bat-eagle things that fly around and annoy the player, causing them to waste ammo.  Not to worry, though, as ammo apparently grows on trees and is left just about everywhere. They drop health upon death, apparently carrying it in their dicks.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[xbox|Rakk Hive]]: Massive monsters on whicht Rakks live. They can rape you in a minute flat if you&#039;re not prepared. It&#039;s best to kill them by aiming for their eyes and spamming grenades.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Hypercube|Outriders]]: Outriders are bandits who drive around in cars, flipping people off and mooning them through the windshield. They can be completely ignored by launching a guided missile into their cars and running over their flaming corpses. This shouldn&#039;t be an issue as their driving is that of a blind Pomeranian who can&#039;t reach the pedals. &lt;br /&gt;
*[[Giant isopod|Scythid]]: Giant bug-like creatures. Attack in the same way that Skags do, except that some [[Jihad|blow up]] when killed up close.&lt;br /&gt;
*[[dogs|Skags]]: [[Zerg Rush|Zerg]] like [[Wimmins|dog]] creatures without assholes. They eat stuff and regurgitate anything they can&#039;t digest, from ammo and guns to dollar bills, because the point of logic is to ignore it completely. &lt;br /&gt;
*[[barrel roll|Spiderant]]:  The result of a natural phenomenon of ants and spiders fucking or just being an unimaginative Gearbox employee twat. Without eyes, they will always confuse the player character as a potential mate, and they will immediately start chasing you for the main purpose of [[Love|forcing]] you into their colony. Some advanced species don&#039;t even need to chase you anymore because they&#039;ve discovered a method to barrage you with hunks of [[Cum|jizz]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==ClapTrap==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Claptrap.jpg|thumb|right|110px|Claptrap... [[No|get it]]? [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonorrhea Clap] infested [[Trap|Trap]]... but in this case, [[Star Wars|just a midget in a metal box]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Cunt|ClapTraps]] (pronounced &#039;[[forced meme|forced meme]]&#039;) are the unicycled robots inhabiting the world of Borderlands, which you&#039;ll come across several times on your journey and are more or less designed to be the &amp;quot;comedic&amp;quot; sidekick of the game, giving you a brain tumour in the process. Unfortunately, Gearbox missed the mark by several miles in creating a popular &amp;quot;[[Portal|Companion Cube]]&amp;quot; like mascot character that&#039;s enduring and popular (Jew) to players, but what they didn&#039;t realize was that the idea of [[Star Wars|an annoying little robot that talked in a stupid electronic voice and went around dancing]] had already been used. They also took the name &amp;quot;ClapTrap&amp;quot; from [[Donkey Kong|another entertainment franchise worshiped by nerds]]. ClapTraps are living proof that robots can develop [[Assburgers|Asperger&#039;s syndrome]].&lt;br /&gt;

==[[Duke Nukem]] Demo==&lt;br /&gt;
When you bought Borderlands Game of the Year edition, besides getting all the DLC that [[you]] had already wasted forty bucks on, you also got access to an exclusive Duke Nukem demo on all systems.  Though if you got the game through [[Steam]] and used the best [[PC|console]], you could just download the demo anyway. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Borderlands 3: Pushing A Turd Down Hill==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Borderlands 3: the highly anticipated sequel in the Borderlands series, where Gearbox Software somehow managed to pack in even more explosions, wisecracking characters, and improbable weaponry, proving once again that you don’t need to reinvent the wheel when you can just slap a few more spikes on it and call it a day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Plot: Or the Lack Thereof===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Borderlands 3, players return to the lawless wastelands of Pandora, which, despite being blown up, burnt down, and repeatedly shot to pieces in previous installments, still manages to provide endless entertainment. This time, the player characters, dubbed the Vault Hunters, are up against the Calypso twins, Tyreen and Troy, a pair of insufferably edgy streamers whose primary goal is to annoy you into submission with their incessant vlogging and penchant for viral hashtags.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Vault Hunters===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The game introduces four new Vault Hunters, each one more absurd than the last:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Zane Flynt&#039;&#039;&#039;, the Irish stereotype who shoots first and asks questions never.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Amara&#039;&#039;&#039;, the brawler who punches first and... also asks questions never.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Moze&#039;&#039;&#039;, the mech pilot who thought playing a first-person shooter inside a first-person shooter was a good idea.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;FL4K&#039;&#039;&#039; the pet-loving robot who somehow has more emotional depth than the entirety of the supporting cast.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Gameplay: Button Mashing and Loot Grabbing===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The core gameplay of Borderlands 3 remains unchanged, because why fix what’s broken? Players will spend countless hours shooting, looting, and wondering why they’re still playing. The game’s notorious for its “gazillion guns,” most of which you’ll discard within minutes for the next marginally better one. Highlights include guns that walk, guns that talk, and guns that shoot other guns because, apparently, Gearbox ran out of ideas sometime in 2011.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The Humor: Forced and Farcical===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Borderlands 3 tries very hard to be funny. So hard, in fact, that it ends up being the video game equivalent of that one friend who still quotes Monty Python sketches verbatim. The humor is a mix of juvenile gags, forced memes, and characters screaming at you about how wacky and zany they are. The writing team apparently had a quota to fill for &amp;quot;quirky dialogue,&amp;quot; resulting in interactions that range from mildly amusing to painfully awkward.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Graphics: Next-Gen Cell Shading===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Geartwat stuck with the signature cell-shaded art style, presumably because it’s easier to draw squiggly lines than realistic textures. The vibrant, comic-book look still holds up, mainly because it’s the only thing stopping the game from looking like a post-apocalyptic version of Farmville.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Multiplayer: Mayhem and Mediocrity===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Playing Borderlands 3 with friends is akin to herding cats with flamethrowers. The game shines brightest in co-op, where you can collectively marvel at the sheer stupidity of the plot and simultaneously despair over the repetitive loot grind. Just be prepared for the inevitable lag spikes and connection issues, a staple feature in any modern multiplayer game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===DLC: The Never-Ending Story===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gearfag, never one to miss an opportunity to milk the cash cow, released a slew of DLCs that promise to extend the Borderlands experience well beyond its welcome. From fighting off Lovecraftian horrors to attending Handsome Jack&#039;s posthumous bachelor party, the DLCs ensure that if you weren’t tired of the game by the end of the main campaign, you certainly will be after the expansions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===A Glorious Mess===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Borderlands 3 is exactly what you’d expect: more guns, more explosions, and more over-the-top antics. It’s a game that doesn’t take itself seriously, which is fortunate because no one else does either. Despite its flaws, it’s an entertaining romp through a world where logic takes a backseat to lunacy, and that’s precisely why it remains beloved by fans and a laughingstock to everyone else. Enjoy the ride, and don’t forget to set your expectations to low and your volume to mute.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trolling==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===[[Fanbois]]===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Ask where the [[Banhammer|REAL]] [[Wood|melee]] [[Pipe|weapons]] are.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ask for modded stuff.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mention the words [[Fallout|&amp;quot;fall&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;out&amp;quot;]] in the same sentence on a Borderlands forum.&lt;br /&gt;
* Telling them an assault rifle with 97% accuracy and 215 damage isn&#039;t nearly as satisfying as having a life.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them the following based on which character they play&lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Lilith, it is because they desperately want a girlfriend and will never get laid.&lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Roland, it is because they are a [[wigger]], or possibly a [[chav]]. &lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Brick, it is because they are a [[fat]] fuck who wishes he had chunk-power.&lt;br /&gt;
** If they play as Mordecai, it is because they want to be a badass but are afraid to leave the basement.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them that WoW is an MMO that has more than just four players per server.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them &#039;&#039;[[Wolfenstein]]&#039;&#039; had better graphics.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them that an original art style doesn&#039;t mean jack shit [[Gears Of War|if the only colors used are gray and brown]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Ask them if the game ends once you get to Vault 13.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them you have the &amp;quot;Troll Repeater Pistol&amp;quot; and want to trade it for a hex for your Diablo character.&lt;br /&gt;
* Tell them the game is overrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Online [[Lulz|Tips]] ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Equip your character with the [[Vampire|&amp;quot;Transfusion&amp;quot;]] grenade modifier and start a duel with your partner(s). Works best as Brick in a [[asshole|tight, confined space]] (Lost Cave, some Arenas, etc.) with about 5-6 grenades, and bonus points if you scream &amp;quot;[[Terrorist|ALLAHU AKBAR!]]&amp;quot; while doing so.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Leeroy Jenkins|As Roland or Brick, take off aimlessly into a dangerous area]] full of [[ITG|&amp;quot;Badass&amp;quot;]] bandits, skags, etc., then run back to your teammate(s) and either keep running and [[Dox|turn around to see if they survive]], or [[You don&#039;t have any friends|quit and see if you&#039;ll even play together again]].&lt;br /&gt;
* As Lilith, four words: [[Hax|Phasewalk the entire duel.]]&lt;br /&gt;
* As Brick, scream the entire time you beat up Roland bare-handed, &amp;quot;PUNCH [[NIGGERS|SOLDIERS]] RECEIVE [[Cake|GUNS]]!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
* As Mordecai, or possibly Roland, run off from your group and hide out in a house or somewhere unseen around a bandit spawn-point, and &amp;quot;blend in&amp;quot; as your partners get raped. When they&#039;re near death, run over to them, heal them, [[pussy|THEN challenge them to a duel]].&lt;br /&gt;
*As Roland, constantly ask where the [[white]] [[wimminz]] at, even if Lilith&#039;s in the group. [[Trap|ESPECIALLY if Lilith&#039;s in the group]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Get yourself a modded gun and shield, so that you can kill anything and be unkillable. Then go into a game with noobs and continuously demand duels with them. Bonus points if you&#039;re in the middle of a fight. Win and claim that you have skillz or rub it in their face. Demand another duel. Win and rub. Repeat.&lt;br /&gt;
*Join low-level games, kill bosses, and steal all the loot.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Help&amp;quot; new players with boss battles by escorting them there, and then wandering off to do something more important. When they ask what you&#039;re doing, respond with &amp;quot;Did you not get the message? There are more jobs available at the New Haven bounty board. You kill him, and I&#039;ll go get the mission&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*As the driver, crash the car.&lt;br /&gt;
*Make up a class mod. Say a boss dropped it, and refuse to trade it for anything.&lt;br /&gt;
*Constantly ask to &amp;quot;borrow&amp;quot; money.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{achtung|Playing World of Warcraft may cause insanity and an increased risk of turning into a basement-dwelling loot goblin.}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{breakingnews|Blizzard dropped the banhammer on Nostalrius. That&#039;ll surely get their seven million lost subs back!}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{spoilers|text=The grand twist in this game is that the real final boss is your own social life crumbling from neglect. Even the NPCs lead more exciting lives than you!!!}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to World of Warcraft (unironically shortened to &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot;), the digital wasteland where your dreams of heroism go to die and your patience is stretched thinner than the plot of a Michael Bay movie. Launched in 2004 by Blizzard Entertainment, WoW (as in WOW, my life went down the shitter) has managed to captivate millions of [[retards|players]] worldwide, mainly by trapping them in an [[real life|endless cycle of grinding and disappointment]]. With lore so convoluted and undecipherable, it would take eons for linguists around the world to actually understand what the actual fuck Chris Metzen snorted while &amp;quot;envisioning&amp;quot; this crap. It makes &#039;&#039;Silmarillion&#039;&#039; look like a five-minute bed time story specifically written for children with fragile x syndrome. Strap in, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the cesspool of Azeroth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Graphics: Ancient Relics ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Graphics—where mountains resemble freshly baked loaves of bread, and trees look like they&#039;re made from crumpled-up gift wrap. It&#039;s like Blizzard handed the development team a box of crayons from 2004 and said, &amp;quot;Go nuts!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The water? Oh, that&#039;s a masterpiece—who doesn&#039;t love reflective puddles that look like shiny plastic wrap stretched over Jell-O? And let&#039;s not forget the iconic NPC faces. It&#039;s like they all went to the same plastic surgeon who only knows two expressions: &amp;quot;I&#039;m slightly concerned&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;I just smelled a fart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then there’s the foliage! Nothing screams &amp;quot;immersive realism&amp;quot; like flat, paper-thin grass that clips through your boots as if it&#039;s given up on life. It&#039;s as if Azeroth is secretly sponsored by a discount origami company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The real charm, though, is in the armor design. Why does a shoulder piece for a level 20 character look like they’re carrying an entire medieval dining set on each shoulder? Practicality clearly isn’t a concern when you&#039;re walking around with shoulder pads so massive, you need FAA clearance to enter Stormwind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#039;s not overlook those classic textures. WoW&#039;s cobblestones look like someone smeared a JPEG from 1999 across the ground and called it a day. And yet, somehow, these low-res visuals still demand a gaming PC from NASA to hit 60 FPS during a raid. Truly, a marvel of modern optimization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay: Grind Until You Die ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft’s gameplay is like being handed a spoon and told to dig a hole to the center of the Earth, only to fill it back up again once you’re halfway there—or maybe it’s more like trying to empty an ocean with a leaky bucket while a crab bites your toes. In this epic fantasy realm, you’ll embark on “world-saving” quests, also known as glorified errands, like “Collect 10 bear asses.” Yes, bear asses—because apparently, in Azeroth, bears have somehow evolved to grow multiple asses, and you’re the only hero brave enough to harvest them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These “quests” are repetitive fetch missions that could easily be outsourced to any halfway competent NPC, but no, you are the chosen one—the bearer of buckets, the picker-upper of random crap, the unpaid intern of the gods. Every click of your mouse is a solemn reminder that you’re shelling out a monthly fee to perform glorified virtual chores. It’s like paying someone to let you vacuum their house.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And while you’re out there scraping bear asses and picking up literally glowing mushrooms, the so-called villains of the game are just chilling. These are the big bads who supposedly threaten the entire world, yet they’re hanging out in their dungeons like they’re at a company retreat. Surrounded by armies of overly enthusiastic minions who are just… standing there, waiting for you to arrive. Honestly, you could probably knock on their front door, and they’d open it like, “Oh good, you’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for someone to kill us for years.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But hey, it’s not all bad. At least you get to enjoy the satisfaction of grinding for hours to earn a shiny new sword that looks exactly like your last sword, except now it glows. Progress, baby. Welcome to World of Warcraft: where the real hero isn’t you—it’s your ability to endure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Leveling:&#039;&#039;&#039; Experience the joy of killing the same boar 10,000 times to gain a single level. It&#039;s like Groundhog Day, but without the comedic relief.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Raiding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gather a group of socially awkward strangers to take down a boss that drops gear you don’t need. If the game mechanics don&#039;t kill you, your teammates&#039; incompetence will.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;PvP:&#039;&#039;&#039; Dive into the world of PvP where balance is a myth and every rogue is a stealthy demon sent straight from hell to ruin your day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Storyline: A Soap Opera on Steroids ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of WoW is a convoluted mess that makes Days of Our Lives look like a masterpiece of coherent storytelling. Every expansion brings more plot twists and lore retcons than you can shake a stick at.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Factions:&#039;&#039;&#039; The eternal struggle between the Horde and the Alliance is like watching two toddlers fight over a toy – entertaining for a moment, but ultimately pointless and exhausting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Villains:&#039;&#039;&#039; From the Lich King to Sylvanas Windrunner, every villain is a misunderstood anti-hero with daddy issues. It&#039;s like Blizzard hired a team of therapists to write the lore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Community: A Hive of Scum and Villainy ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The WoW community is a mixed bag of elitists, trolls, and those poor souls who genuinely enjoy the game. The general chat is a cesspool of spam, political arguments, and unsolicited advice on how to play your class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Elitists:&#039;&#039;&#039; These players think they are gods among mortals, looking down upon anyone who dares to enjoy the game casually.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trolls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The bane of any online community, trolls in WoW are a special breed. They thrive on chaos and your tears, and they won’t stop until they’ve made you regret logging in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Normal People:&#039;&#039;&#039; Normal people were just trying to enjoy the game, but eventually saw through the facade of pure shite and ultimately left the game a few expansions ago.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Updates: Or Lack Thereof ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard’s approach to updates can be summed up as “better late than never.” Each patch promises to fix what’s broken, but usually just introduces new ways to break the game. The developers&#039; motto seems to be, “If it ain&#039;t broke, we’ll fix that.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Microtransactions: Pay to Play, and Pay Some More ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Micro transactions wow.jpg|left|thumb|Buy, buy and buy some moar!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW has embraced microtransactions with the fervor of a televangelist asking for donations. Mounts, pets, character boosts – all available for the low, low price of your dignity. It’s like paying extra for the privilege of being disappointed faster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Main Idea: A Beautiful Disaster ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft is the ultimate exercise in masochism. It’s a beautifully designed trap that lures you in with promises of adventure and camaraderie, only to beat you down with endless grind and toxic community interactions. If you’re looking for a game that will suck away your time, money, and soul, then WoW is the perfect choice. Enjoy the ride to nowhere, because in the end, the real boss fight is against your own sense of self-worth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Races ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome, brave souls, to the sardonic safari of World of Warcraft’s races, where fantasy clichés meet the most ridiculous stereotypes the gaming world has to offer. Hold onto your keyboards as we dive into the wonderful, woeful world of Azeroth’s inhabitants. It’s time to see who really stands out… or in most cases, who stands way too far out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Alliance ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The so-called &amp;quot;noble&amp;quot; faction of World of Warcraft, where everyone is apparently too busy polishing their armor and patting themselves on the back to notice how insufferably pretentious they are. Gather &#039;round, dear reader, as we embark on a tour of this faction, which, quite frankly, could use a dose of humility and a reality check.&lt;br /&gt;

|The Humans. The race that defines &amp;quot;average&amp;quot; with all the enthusiasm of a damp sponge. They&#039;re the most generic fantasy fodder you can imagine: just your everyday medieval peasants with a king complex. Want to know what a human in WoW is like? Picture that guy in the office who thinks he&#039;s the main character in a dramatic novel. &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow dwarfs.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Dwarves: The Short Stack Stereotypes&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Dwarves are basically hobbits with a drinking problem and a miner’s helmet. Imagine a group of guys who think &amp;quot;tall&amp;quot; is a cardinal sin and that “work” should be synonymous with “beer.” They’re short, they’re stout, and they’ve got a chip on their shoulder the size of their ego. Great at mining, terrible at everything else, especially personal hygiene. In most high-fantasy works, these lilliputian, anthropomorphic, hairy Muppets are often compared to real-life [[Jews]] due to their obsession with treasure, their extreme xenophobia, and their consistent display of a God complex.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow gnomes.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Gnomes: The Tiny Tech Terrorists&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Gnomes are the tiny tech enthusiasts of Azeroth, always tinkering with gadgets and gizmos. Their advanced intellect is overshadowed only by their insufferable personalities. They&#039;re like that annoying kid in class who always had to be right, corrected the teacher, and/or constantly requested more homework. Playing a gnome means embracing your inner know-it-all and annoying everyone in sight with your [[sarcasm|superior intellect]].&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Night elf wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Night Elves: The Tree-Hugging Hippies&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Night Elves, the ultimate eco-warriors who spend their days frolicking in forests and talking to animals while embracing their inner homosexuality. Their obsession with nature is so extreme, you half expect them to chain themselves to a tree in protest of logging. With their &amp;quot;shadowmeld&amp;quot; ability, they can disappear into the shadows – perfect for avoiding responsibility and accountability, like the dirty hippies they are.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Space goats wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Draenei: The Holier-Than-Thou Space Goats&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|The Draenei are the self-righteous space goats who crash-landed on Azeroth and decided to grace everyone with their moral superiority. With their glowing eyes and incessant preaching about the Light, they’re basically the Jehovah’s Witnesses of WoW. If you enjoy lecturing others on everything while virtue signaling and ignoring your own flaws, then the Draenei are your kindred spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Worgen wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Worgen: The Furry Fiasco&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Worgen are the werewolf wannabes who can’t decide if they want to be human or beast. They spend half their time transforming and the other half brooding about their curse, like a bipolar furry. Their duality is supposed to be intriguing and ezoteric, but ends up being as exciting as a cringey high school goth phase. Play a Worgen if you enjoy unnecessary drama, perpetual identity crisis and especially, if you&#039;re a sick fuck who likes to masturbate looking at Dragonkin porn on [[Rule 34]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== [[Afghanistan|The Horde]] ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ragtag group of misfits, outcasts, and supposed [[dipshits|badasses]] of the World of Warcraft universe. If ever there was a faction that embodies the chaotic energy of a middle school cafeteria, it&#039;s this one. Buckle up, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the murky depths of this so-called &amp;quot;[[cringe|faction of honor and strength]]&amp;quot; – with a heavy dose of &amp;quot;fuck off&amp;quot; and a side of unfiltered disdain, delivered by 40-year-old keyboard warrior manchildren who embody the internet tough guy meme perfectly.&lt;br /&gt;

|Orcs are the muscle-bound neanderthals of Azeroth who came here to literally kill, pillage, rape and destroy everything. Their solution to every problem? Smash it. They’re constantly raging about honor and glory, which is just a thinly veiled excuse to murder things. If you like the idea of playing a character that’s one-dimensional and as subtle as a sledgehammer, orcs are your perfect match. If you can&#039;t afford to play WoW, just paint a brick green and put some googly eyes on it—that&#039;s basically an orc.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow troll.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Trolls: The Laid-Back Psycopaths&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Trolls are the laid-back, rasta-loving lunatics who seem perpetually stoned, yet are always ready to murder you and eat your corpse, according to their [[special|unique]] culture. They have a &amp;quot;no worries&amp;quot; attitude about everything, even when being impaled by a sword. Their penchant for voodoo and eating long pig is charming in a sort of &amp;quot;we really don’t care&amp;quot; way. If you enjoy playing a character who’s chill but highly deranged, like [[sick fuck|Albert Fish]], trolls are your tribe.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow undead.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Forsaken: Zombie Angsty Teens&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Touch of the child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;5% forsaken child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Cannibalize&lt;br /&gt;
|The Forsaken are the edgy, undead rejects who are eternally angsty. Their leader, Sylvanas, is the queen of drama, and they follow her like loyal emo kids. They revel in decay and despair, making them the perfect choice for players who never outgrew their [[Hot Topic]] phase. If you like the idea of being an [[Avril Lavigne]] reject—always pissed off and dead inside and out—the Forsaken are your choice.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Tauren horde.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Tauren: The Bovine Philosophers&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Milk&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Leather&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Endurance&lt;br /&gt;
|This race is the ideal race for pseudo-intellectual [[neckbeard|neckbeards]]. Half of the Tauren userbase will have the word &amp;quot;moo&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;cow&amp;quot; in their names because they think they are clever shits and internet-funny, when in reality they need to cut off circulation to their dick and set themselves on fire. Tauren are the gentle giants who love to shout philosophical drivel about nature and balance. They’re basically cows with a conscience, who cry when they eat grass because plants also feel pain or some stupid shit like that. Their slow, deliberate way of speaking and moving is perfect for players who enjoy a leisurely pace aka mental retards. If you want to play a character that’s basically Donkey from Shrek, but a cow instead of a horse, the Tauren are for you.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Blood elves.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Blood Elves: The Vain and the Vapid&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Gay Affinity&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Sperm Torrent&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Arcane Resistance (to rape) &lt;br /&gt;
|Blood Elves are the vain, pretty closeted homosexuals and girls of Azeroth. Obsessed with their looks and their [[drugs|magical addiction]], they’re like the Kardashians of WoW. They’ve got a tragic backstory but are too busy checking their reflection to care. Play a Blood Elf if you enjoy being the center of attention and making everything about your narcissistic ass, while everyone else rolls their eyes so hard they can see through the back of their heads.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Horde goblins.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Goblins: Gnomes Meet Mad Max&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Cock&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Black Cock&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Best Deals Anywhere&lt;br /&gt;
|Basically, they are Gnomes, just painted green and given to the Horde, but it&#039;s the same shtick. These pint-sized green disasters are the epitome of greed and avarice. Goblins don’t just love gold, they worship it like a deity, sacrificing dignity and common sense at the altar of profit margins. Their entire society is a grotesque parody of capitalism on steroids, where the only thing more explosive than their volatile gadgets are their bullshit mumbo-jumbo Gangster wannabe personas.&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Neutral Race ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because Blizzard was too lazy, they decided to add a race for both faction on the Alliance and the Horde, and made this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wow_panda.jpg|center|500px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those portly, panda-like creatures that stumbled into the World of Warcraft universe like a drunken uncle at a family reunion. Who thought it was a good idea to blend Kung Fu Panda with your epic fantasy world? Someone at Blizzard must have had a few too many drinks at the company party after watching a cartoon movie for kids?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So there you have it, the diverse (and dreadful) races of World of Warcraft. Each one is retarded in its own irritating way. Whatever flavor of crap you prefer, WoW has something to frustrate everyone. Enjoy your stay in Azeroth – you’ll need all the patience you can muster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Classes and Talents ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the World of Warcraft, where fantasy meets reality, and gamers everywhere embark on epic quests to save Azeroth, all while living in their parents’ basements. But let’s be brutally honest – not all heroes are created equal. In fact, some of these classes are as balanced as a seesaw with an elephant on one end. So let&#039;s tear apart each class with brutal honesty and a pinch of hatred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warrior.jpg|thumb|150px|A mighty [[faggot|warrior]], a projection of the [[you|player]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warrior: The Meatshield with Delusions of Grandeur&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warrior – the quintessential tank who believes that having a ton of armor and health somehow makes up for having the intelligence of a rock. Warriors charge into battle with the grace of a drunken elephant, swinging their oversized weapons while shouting incoherently. Their idea of strategy is to hit things harder and hope for the best. And let’s not forget their favorite pastime: complaining about not having enough heals, despite standing in every possible fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to scream &amp;quot;For the Horde!&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;For the Alliance!&amp;quot; while charging into battle.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re basically a glorified punching bag. Prepare for a lifetime of repair bills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arms:&#039;&#039;&#039; You use your fucking arms, spin like a ballerina and die constantly. &lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fury:&#039;&#039;&#039; Grants warriors to equip a giant dong in each hand, so they have an easier time being faggots. Remember to always use raging blowjob when you have 2 charges.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; A curious name for this, as these are the biggest AIDS on this planet. Nobody knows how to play them, so expect your group to fail every time this is the tank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow paladin.jpg|thumb|left|150px|[[sarcasm|A righteous Paladin]]. Notice how he walks in his own piss to convey superiority.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Paladin: The Self-Righteous Zealot&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Paladins are the holy knights of Azeroth, wielding both a sword and a Bible, ready to smite evil and preach about the Light. They come in three flavors: Tankadin, Healadin, and Retardin. Despite their shiny armor and holy auras, Paladins have an uncanny ability to be both invincible and utterly useless at the same time. Their primary skill? Spamming bubbles and judging everyone around them – both in and out of the game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to wear plate armor and heal yourself. Plus, bubble hearth!&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;ll spend half your time arguing about whether you&#039;re a healer or a tank. &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Spoiler:&#039;&#039; you&#039;re whatever your group needs, you walking [[tool|utility belt.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Retribution:&#039;&#039;&#039; If you choose this branch, just start over. The goal of this class is to get holy power, then spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, kill yourself, spend it, get holy power...&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; The tank of the game. Which is not saying much. Basically, whilst in a fight you get an extra five seconds of life. It&#039;s the kind of thing where you think you&#039;re getting the best of the best, but is really isn&#039;t much different. Only good for raids and tanking. Also enjoy your 1 million life points, and your zero real life points.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Absolutely useless. Can&#039;t heal. Can&#039;t do any damage. Needs to do damage to heal. The damage will suck, and your teammates will scream at you because you used an offensive move, so that you could use your defensive skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow hunter.jpg|thumb|150px|The hunter, the perpetual [[dumbass|dazed and confused]] DPS class that has no idea what to do.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Hunter: The AFK Champion&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hunters, the masters of ranged combat and pet management – or so they claim. In reality, Hunters are known for two things: pulling extra mobs and being perpetually AFK. Their pets have a mind of their own, often running off to aggro entire dungeons while the Hunter is busy texting their girlfriend. They also have a talent for misdirecting bosses onto healers, proving that the real hunt is for competent group members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can solo almost anything with your trusty pet. Also, feign death is the perfect &amp;quot;I didn&#039;t sign up for this&amp;quot; button.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Everyone assumes you’re just mashing buttons while watching Netflix. And let&#039;s be honest, you probably are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Beast Mastery:&#039;&#039;&#039; These hunters have wonderful sexual experiences with their pets, which motivates their pets to fight harder. Take this if you are a furry. Your pets can fight on their own, so you don&#039;t even need to be in the game, which is a plus.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Marksmanship:&#039;&#039;&#039; Expect to do less than the other huntards if you choose this, as it absolutely blows the ass.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Survival:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOL TRAPS ARE ABSOLUTELY USELESS.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow priest.jpg|thumb|left|150px|A typical WoW priest realizing everyone knows his dark secret a.k.a kiddie fondling.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Priest: The Masochistic Medic&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Priests are the backbone of any raid group, providing healing and buffs to keep everyone alive. They come in two flavors: Holy and Shadow. Holy Priests are the altruistic healers who enjoy being yelled at for not healing fast enough, while Shadow Priests are the edgy teens who channel dark powers and constantly remind you of their &amp;quot;deep, dark pain.&amp;quot; Either way, playing a Priest means accepting that no one will appreciate you until you stop healing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re the group&#039;s lifeline. No priest, no raid. Instant ego boost.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Prepare to hear &amp;quot;heal plz&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;heal bitch&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;heal me you cuck&amp;quot; more times than you can count. And when things go south, it’s always your fault, faggot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Discipline:&#039;&#039;&#039; So I herd you like shielding. Now you can shield while you shield while you shield in a shield.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let me heal you child, just step into this dark basement.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Shadow:&#039;&#039;&#039; Years of raping kids has not paid off, as this is the weakest DPS class. Expect everyone to pass you in instances while spitting in your general direction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow mage.jpg|thumb|150px|Totally not a Wizard.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Mage: The Glass Cannon&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Mages are the epitome of high-risk, high-reward gameplay. They can dish out incredible damage with spells like Fireball and Frostbolt, but they have the survivability of a wet paper bag. Mages spend half their time nuking enemies from a safe distance and the other half running away screaming when anything gets too close, abandoing everyone to save their bussy. Their greatest contribution to any group? Free food and portals – because nothing says &amp;quot;master of the arcane&amp;quot; like being a glorified vending machine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Teleports and portals save you a fortune in travel costs. And who doesn&#039;t love setting things on fire?&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You’re about as durable as wet tissue paper. Get used to mobs wiping their ass with you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arcane:&#039;&#039;&#039; Maintain your mana. Don&#039;t move, ever. Do this and you will win the DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fire:&#039;&#039;&#039; Wait for Pyroblast to proc. Spam other abilities that don&#039;t do shit. Wait for Pyroblast.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE... AND ICE.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow shaman.jpg|thumb|left|150px|It&#039;s a known fact Shamans sweat cum.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Shaman: The Elemental Hipster&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Shamans are the spiritual guides who wield the powers of the elements – fire, water, air, and earth. They have the unique ability to drop totems that provide buffs or annoy everyone with unnecessary clutter. Shamans are often seen in the back, frantically trying to keep their totems from being destroyed while everyone else wonders what they actually do. They claim to bring balance to the group, but mostly they bring confusion and misplaced expectations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Totems, totems everywhere. Plus, you get to yell &amp;quot;It&#039;s clobberin&#039; time!&amp;quot; while dual-wielding.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Juggling totems is about as fun as herding cats. And you&#039;ll always be the &amp;quot;off-healer&amp;quot; in raids.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Enhancement:&#039;&#039;&#039; Similar to Beast Mastery hunter, except Shamans are specific and only do it with wolves. This is for retards who still want to do high DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Piss on everybody to heal them. Occasionally drops a magic dildo which floods the area with cum.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Elemental:&#039;&#039;&#039; These shamans are similar to Arcane Mages, except they can move earth with their dildos. Use lava.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow druid.jpg|thumb|150px|A druid realizing he [[cum|jizzed in his pants]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Druid: The Jack of All Trades, Master of None&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Druids are the ultimate utility class, able to shapeshift into various forms to fulfill different roles. They can tank, heal, and deal damage – all while looking like they got lost on their way to a nature documentary. However, their versatility comes at a cost: they’re mediocre at everything. Druids spend most of their time arguing about which form is best and why they’re not being appreciated for their &amp;quot;amazing flexibility.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can be a bear, a cat, a bird, and a tree—all in one day. Flexibility is your middle name.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Jack of all trades, master of none. And good luck keeping track of all your forms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Balance (BOOMKIN):&#039;&#039;&#039; YOU TURN INTO A GIANT SPACE-CHICKEN AND SHOOT FUCKING LASERS EVERYWHERE THAT DON&#039;T DO ANY DAMAGE&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Giant wooden dildo that heals people by throwing leaves at them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Feral:&#039;&#039;&#039; Either a cute kitten that requires everything to bleed or a giant motherfucking pedobear who is only useful as a meatshield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warlock.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Crazy, evil, socipaths that consider torture a hobby.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warlock: The Soul-Sucking Sociopath&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warlocks are the goth kids of Warcraft, summoning demons and casting curses while everyone else wonders if they’re secretly plotting to destroy the world. They revel in the misery of others, draining life and mana with glee. Warlocks can summon powerful pets, but they’re mostly known for dotting everything in sight and then laughing maniacally as their enemies wither away. Their main weakness? Explaining why they chose to play such an obviously evil class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Affliction:&#039;&#039;&#039; You specialize in giving AIDS and cancer to all fucking players while slowly sucking their cock.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Demonology:&#039;&#039;&#039; Same as Beast Mastery hunters, except warlocks prefer demons and necrophilia over animals.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Destruction:&#039;&#039;&#039; Set everything ablaze. Enjoy getting raped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow rogue.jpg|thumb|150px|Rogues do it from behind.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Rogue: The Backstabbing Bandit&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Rogues live in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to stab you in the back – much like your ex. These sneaky bastards are great at dealing massive damage, then vanishing before anyone can retaliate. Their playstyle revolves around stealth, deceit, and looting all the good stuff while everyone else is fighting. Rogues often remind us that trust issues aren&#039;t just for relationships.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Assassination:&#039;&#039;&#039; wanna-be-Ezio, but in reality, a shitty spec no one plays with, because why would you want to poison someone when you can sinister strike them?&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Combat:&#039;&#039;&#039; You sinister strike them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Subtlety:&#039;&#039;&#039; Subtlety rogues sneak upon people and give them surprise buttsecks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow death knight.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Notice the edgyness.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Death Knight: The Edgelord Extraordinaire&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Death Knights are the dark, brooding anti-heroes of Warcraft, resurrected to serve the Lich King and then deciding they’d rather just sulk around Azeroth. With abilities like Death Grip and Army of the Dead, they excel at making every fight as chaotic as possible. Their aesthetic screams &amp;quot;I shop exclusively at Hot Topic,&amp;quot; and their gameplay revolves around being as edgy and misunderstood as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Blood:&#039;&#039;&#039; GAY HOMOSEXUAL FAGGOT who can tank bosses. Can heal himself better than a raid-geared healer could, which of course makes them [[no|very balanced]] in PvP.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy doing less damage than the tank spec.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Unholy:&#039;&#039;&#039; As a good whore DK is, unholy DKs spread all the fucking diseases from syphilis to chlamydia to their opponents while buttfucking their ghouls. Completely useless. Does even less damage than Blood and Frost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow monk.jpg|thumb|150px|Guys, the Monk is drunk again...]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Monk: The Confused Contender&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Monks are the newest addition to the World of Warcraft class lineup, bringing martial arts and chi energy to the mix. They punch, kick, and heal their way through dungeons, all while trying to figure out why they were added to the game in the first place. Monks have a unique playstyle that involves rolling around and drinking mysterious brews, which leads many to wonder if they’re actually just drunken brawlers who stumbled into Azeroth by accident.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Brewmaster:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOLLLLLLL SO FUCKING DRUNK :PPPPPPPP THESE MOBS CANT EVEN HANDLE ME RIGHT NOW&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Mistweaver:&#039;&#039;&#039; Healing mist, so creative Blizzard. Oh, and some fucking orbs, too.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Windwalker:&#039;&#039;&#039; Typical wanna-be-JackieChan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Demon Hunter: The One-Trick Pony&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow demon hunter.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Notice the gun as most people imagine themselves acutally playing the [[DOOM]] guy, or is it just [[you]]?]]&lt;br /&gt;
Demon Hunters are the rockstars of WoW, with flashy abilities and a brooding backstory that screams &amp;quot;look at me.&amp;quot; They excel at doing one thing: dealing damage. With abilities like Eye Beam and Metamorphosis, they make sure everyone knows they’re the center of attention. However, their reliance on mobility and damage output makes them fragile and predictable. Once the novelty wears off, Demon Hunters are just edgy night elves with a superiority complex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Overall:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft classes are a testament to the game’s enduring appeal and its ability to attract both die-hard fans and relentless critics. Each class brings its own flavor of chaos, hilarity, and frustration to the game. Whether you love them or hate them, one thing’s for sure: WoW wouldn’t be the same without this motley crew of misfits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, next time you log in, take a moment to appreciate the absurdity and brilliance of the World of Warcraft classes. After all, it’s this delightful mess that keeps Azeroth spinning and the players coming back for more – even if it’s just to complain about how much they hate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Expansions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Burning Crusade (BC)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Burning crusade satire image.jpg|thumb|right|Grind, grind, grind, grind and grind, dipshits.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, The Burning Crusade—the first expansion for World of Warcraft, and arguably the game equivalent of a long, excruciating dentist appointment. Released in 2007, this expansion promised to bring thrilling new content and exciting adventures. What it delivered, however, was a cluster of frustration, recycled content, and enough player tears to fill the Great Sea. Strap in, because we&#039;re diving headfirst into this dumpster fire with all the love and hatred it deserves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: A Masterclass in Overcomplication&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, decided that the lore needed to be more convoluted than a soap opera. Enter the shattered world of Outland, where Illidan Stormrage, the original emo night elf, waits with a scowl that could rival your most disgruntled ex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember that badass anti-hero from Warcraft III? Well, prepare to see him reduced to a raid boss who gets beaten like a piñata. He&#039;s no longer the “You are not prepared!” legend, but rather the “Oh, you’re still here?” side note.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Blood Elves and Draenei:&#039;&#039;&#039; Two new races introduced to pad out the player base and offer more cringe-worthy RP possibilities. Blood Elves—because everyone wanted to play an elf with a superiority complex—and Draenei, the space goats who crash-landed into Azeroth with zero navigational skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Like a Rusty Gear&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought vanilla WoW had its grindy moments, The Burning Crusade takes it to a whole new level. Enjoy endless grinding for attunements, resist gear, and the eternal hell of daily quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Attunements:&#039;&#039;&#039; Want to raid? Be prepared to sell your soul for attunements that require you to jump through more hoops than a circus poodle. Let’s make this clear—no one, and I mean NO ONE, enjoys grinding for weeks just to step foot in a raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Reputation Grinding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who doesn’t love spending countless hours doing repetitive tasks for factions that barely remember your name? Get ready to kill the same mobs over and over again in a mind-numbing loop of despair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying Mounts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sure, they sound cool until you realize you’ll need to grind gold like a medieval peasant to afford one. The only thing more painful than getting your first flying mount is the repair bill after you crash it into the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039; Dungeons and Raids: Recycled Boredom &#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard must have really loved recycling because The Burning Crusade dungeons and raids feel like they were pulled straight out of the developer’s trash bin of ideas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Karazhan:&#039;&#039;&#039; A 10-man raid where you spend more time listening to ghostly opera performances than actually fighting bosses. The real challenge is staying awake through the endless trash mobs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep:&#039;&#039;&#039; Exciting in theory, monotonous in practice. Nothing says fun like fighting the same faceless, fish-headed murloc wannabes and robot chickens over and over again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Magtheridon’s Lair:&#039;&#039;&#039; Imagine Onyxia, but less interesting and with more cubes to click. Clicking cubes—because that&#039;s what we all signed up for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Wastelands of Despair&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outland is a visually striking yet soul-sucking expanse of zones designed to test your patience and willingness to live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Hellfire Peninsula:&#039;&#039;&#039; Red, barren, and filled with boars on steroids. It’s as if Blizzard took Durotar, painted it red, and called it a day. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Zangarmarsh:&#039;&#039;&#039; Mushrooms, mushrooms everywhere. If you love fungi and humidity, this zone is your damp dream. Otherwise, it’s just a swampy mess that’s more confusing than enchanting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Nagrand:&#039;&#039;&#039; The one saving grace, because even Blizzard couldn’t mess up floating islands and green fields. But after the 100th kill quest, even Nagrand loses its charm. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Burning Disappointment&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039; is the expansion that promised the moon and delivered a moldy cheese wheel. It’s a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and inject it with enough tedium, frustration, and sheer grinding hell to make players question their life choices. If you enjoy masochism, by all means, dive into this burning wreck. For everyone else, just remember: you were not prepared—for this level of disappointment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, here’s to &#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039;—the expansion that set the bar low and somehow managed to limbo under it. Bravo, Blizzard, bravo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Wrath Of The Lich King (WOTLK)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wrath of the lich king image.jpg|thumb|No, the server is not down, you&#039;re just lagging.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Wrath of the Lich King&#039;&#039;, the second expansion for World of Warcraft, is often hailed as one of the greatest expansions in MMO history. But let&#039;s be real – it&#039;s just another glorified excuse for Blizzard to squeeze more money out of their devoted player base. Grab your Frostmourne, kids, because we&#039;re about to hack and slash our way through the icy, overrated mess that is Northrend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Arthas, Arthas, Arthas&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, Arthas Menethil, the golden boy turned emo villain. If you thought his fall from grace in Warcraft III was melodramatic, wait until you see this expansion. The entire storyline revolves around this angsty prince who decided the best way to cope with his daddy issues was to plunge a sword into his heart and raise an undead army. Seriously, who hurt you, Arthas?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Boring Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; The quests are as repetitive as they come. &amp;quot;Go here, kill that, bring me 10 ghoul eyeballs.&amp;quot; The creativity is truly staggering.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pathetic Attempts at Drama:&#039;&#039;&#039; Every other quest tries to make you feel some sort of way about the tragic plight of Northrend. But let&#039;s be honest, the only tragedy here is the time you&#039;ll waste trying to care.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Frozen Wasteland of Tediousness&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Northrend – a continent so cold and dreary, it makes your heart freeze over. The zones are designed to be as inhospitable as possible, and not in a challenging way – just in a &amp;quot;why am I even here?&amp;quot; way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Borean Tundra vs. Howling Fjord:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard couldn&#039;t decide between two equally bland starting zones, so they gave us both. Spoiler alert: they both suck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grizzly Hills:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only redeeming quality here is the music. Otherwise, it&#039;s just another forest filled with things that want to kill you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home of the Lich King and the most anticlimactic endgame zone. It’s as if Blizzard threw every gothic trope into a blender and poured out this abomination.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: The Definition of Overhyped&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wrath of the Lich King is known for its dungeons and raids. But let’s call them what they really are: overly long, unimaginative time sinks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Naxxramas:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Let&#039;s recycle old content and call it nostalgia!&amp;quot; Brilliant idea, Blizzard. It&#039;s not like we’ve been here before or anything.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Ulduar:&#039;&#039;&#039; Okay, Ulduar was actually decent, but do we really need a raid that feels longer than a Tolkien novel?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trial of the Crusader:&#039;&#039;&#039; A single room raid. Need I say more?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown Citadel:&#039;&#039;&#039; The grand finale! Except the only thing grand about it is the amount of bugs and glitches you&#039;ll encounter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;PvP: Frostbitten Failures&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP in Wrath is like trying to have a snowball fight with icicles – painful and pointless. Wintergrasp, the so-called crown jewel of world PvP, is a laggy, chaotic mess where strategy goes to die.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Arena Seasons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when balance was a thing? Neither do we.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Battlegrounds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy the same old battlegrounds with a fresh coat of frost. Hooray for mediocrity!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Cold, Hard Truth&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Wrath of the Lich King is the expansion that brought us Northrend – a frozen hellscape filled with recycled content, tedious quests, and the whiniest villain in WoW history. If masochism is your thing, then by all means, dive into this glacier of disappointment. But don’t say we didn’t warn you – the only thing colder than the Lich King&#039;s heart is the feeling you’ll get when you realize how much time you’ve wasted. Enjoy the frostbite!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Cataclysm (Cata)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Cataclysm box art.png|thumb|Oh no, it&#039;s Deathwing!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;Cataclysm&#039;&#039;, the third expansion for World of Warcraft, where Blizzard Entertainment decided it was a great idea to take a sledgehammer to Azeroth and call it &amp;quot;content.&amp;quot; Released in 2010, this expansion is the gaming equivalent of inviting a bull into a china shop and then blaming the china for being too fragile. Buckle up, because we’re diving headfirst into this catastrophe with all the love and tenderness of a rhino in a rage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Apocalypse Now (But Make It Boring)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard&#039;s big idea for Cataclysm was to bring back Deathwing, a dragon so angry he makes your high school gym teacher look like Mr. Rogers. His grand entrance involved tearing the world apart because, apparently, dragon therapy wasn’t an option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Deathwing&#039;s Return:&#039;&#039;&#039; He’s back, he’s big, and he’s… really angry about something. Who cares why? Just know that he&#039;s here to wreck your favorite zones and make leveling even more tedious.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Changes:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard thought it would be fun to uproot your favorite nostalgic zones and replace them with watery graves and fiery wastelands. Enjoy questing in the once-beautiful Barrens, now with 100% more existential dread.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Rubble&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced several new gameplay mechanics, each one more exasperating than the last. If you thought leveling was a grind before, just wait until you try to make sense of this mess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Thrilling locales like Vashj&#039;ir, where you get to experience the joy of underwater combat, because fighting in three dimensions wasn’t enough of a headache already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Revised Old Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Say goodbye to the comforting familiarity of your favorite zones. Blizzard’s renovation project involved replacing everything you loved with lava, water, and more hostile NPCs. Thanks, Deathwing!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying in Azeroth:&#039;&#039;&#039; Finally, you can fly in the old world! Oh, wait, that just means you get to see the carnage from a bird’s eye view. Neat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Classes and Races: Tweaks Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced two new races: Worgen and Goblins. Because what WoW really needed was more furries and comic relief characters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Worgen:&#039;&#039;&#039; Ever wanted to play as a werewolf? No? Too bad. Now you can experience the joy of transforming into a hairy beast every time you get mildly annoyed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Goblins:&#039;&#039;&#039; These little green bundles of greed bring explosive fun and mind-numbing quests. Their starting zone is essentially a tutorial in how to blow things up and laugh about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: More Pain, Less Gain&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard really outdid themselves with Cataclysm’s dungeons and raids, creating content so grueling you’ll wish for the sweet release of death – or at least a decent loot drop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heroic Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Cataclysm’s dungeons were harder than trying to explain quantum physics to a toddler. Enjoy wiping repeatedly because apparently, fun is for the weak.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Raids:&#039;&#039;&#039; Think you’re tough? Cataclysm’s raids will disabuse you of that notion faster than you can say “gear check.” Welcome to the world of endless grinding and frustration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Chorus of Groans&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to Cataclysm was a symphony of sighs and groans, mixed with the occasional rage-quit. Blizzard’s grand experiment in world-breaking was met with all the enthusiasm of a root canal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Veteran Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Long-time players watched in horror as their beloved game was dismantled and rebuilt into something unrecognizable. Their feedback ranged from “What were they thinking?” to “Please, make it stop.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Newcomers were left bewildered, wondering if the pre-Cataclysm Azeroth was some kind of myth. Spoiler: It was real, and it was better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: The Cataclysmic Aftermath&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm will go down in history as the expansion that tried too hard and fell flat on its face. It’s a testament to what happens when developers decide to fix what wasn’t broken and break everything else in the process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re in the mood for a nostalgic trip through Azeroth’s most misguided renovation project, by all means, dive into Cataclysm. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you. Enjoy the carnage, and remember: sometimes, the best change is no change at all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Mists Of Pandaria (MOP)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Mists of pandaria box art.jpg|thumb|God help us all!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the World of Warcraft expansion that brought us pandas, beer, and an avalanche of disappointment. This 2012 masterpiece from Blizzard Entertainment was the epitome of &amp;quot;What were they thinking?&amp;quot; Let&#039;s dive into this hilarious, hate-filled critique of the expansion that turned Azeroth into a cuddly, bamboo-filled nightmare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandas: A Joke Gone Too Far&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Blizzard announced pandas as a playable race, it felt like the developers had thrown in the towel and decided to let their kids take over. Seriously, pandas? The epitome of laziness and the ultimate pacifists? Because nothing screams &amp;quot;epic fantasy&amp;quot; like a bunch of chubby bears who&#039;d rather munch on bamboo than engage in mortal combat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Kung Fu Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; is what happens when you binge-watch too many kung fu movies and decide to turn your MMORPG into a parody. The entire narrative revolves around the Pandaren, their idyllic, untouched continent, and the age-old battle between beer bellies and actual threats. It&#039;s like someone watched &#039;&#039;Kung Fu Panda&#039;&#039; and thought, &amp;quot;Yeah, let&#039;s make that our next billion-dollar expansion.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Bamboo Forest&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought previous expansions were grindy, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; said, &amp;quot;Hold my beer!&amp;quot; From endless dailies to rep grinds that made you question your life choices, this expansion was a masterclass in how to stretch minimal content over a maximum timeframe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Dailies Galore:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when you could log in and have fun? &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; introduced a plethora of daily quests that felt more like chores than adventures. Congratulations, you’ve been promoted to Azeroth’s errand boy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Rep Grinds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing says &amp;quot;engaging gameplay&amp;quot; like grinding reputation for factions that offer slightly better gear and cosmetic mounts. Who needs fun when you have repetitive tasks?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Zones: A Tourist Trap&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The zones in Pandaria are beautiful, vibrant, and about as deep as a kiddie pool. Sure, they&#039;re pretty to look at, but once you scratch the surface, you realize there’s about as much substance as a Hollywood blockbuster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Jade Forest:&#039;&#039;&#039; A zone so lush and green, you might forget you’re supposed to be slaying monsters and not on a nature hike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Valley of the Four Winds:&#039;&#039;&#039; The place where you can really get in touch with your inner farmer. Plowing fields and growing crops – because that’s what we signed up for in an MMORPG.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Kun-Lai Summit:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home to the great and wise Pandaren monks, who will bore you to death with their endless platitudes and fetch quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: Filler Content&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The raids and dungeons in &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; were a mixed bag of mediocrity. Some were decent, while others felt like recycled content thrown in to keep us busy while Blizzard figured out their next move.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mogu&#039;shan Vaults:&#039;&#039;&#039; A raid so forgettable, even the bosses seemed to lack enthusiasm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heart of Fear:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing strikes terror into the hearts of players like a raid that feels like a chore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Terrace of Endless Spring:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only thing endless here is the feeling of tedium as you slog through another uninspired raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Monk Class: Balance? What&#039;s That?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monks, the new class introduced in this expansion, were a lesson in imbalance. One minute you&#039;re a god among men, the next you&#039;re wondering if you accidentally unequipped all your gear. The class design swung wildly from overpowered to useless, leaving players dizzy and frustrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Pandaren Parody&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; will go down in history as the expansion that took itself way too seriously while simultaneously being a joke. It’s a love letter to all things ridiculous, a blend of gorgeous visuals and mind-numbing gameplay, and a testament to Blizzard&#039;s willingness to jump the shark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So here’s to you, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the expansion that gave us pandas, plowing fields, and a reason to seriously consider taking up a new hobby. If nothing else, you made us appreciate the good old days of WoW, when we were fighting actual threats and not getting lost in the bamboo forest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the most laughable chapter in &#039;&#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;&#039; history!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Warlords Of Draenor (WOD)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wod_box_art.jpg|thumb|Rage incarnate.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor (WoD)&#039;&#039;&#039;, the expansion that Blizzard Entertainment generously bestowed upon the World of Warcraft community in 2014. In their infinite wisdom, Blizzard decided that players didn’t need new content as much as they needed an expansion that felt like a hastily cobbled together fever dream. Strap in, dear reader, as we dive headfirst into this dumpster fire of an expansion, brimming with frustration, disappointment, and the faint scent of creative bankruptcy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Time Travel Nonsense&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remember when &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; had coherent storytelling? WoD laughs in the face of logic and consistency, tossing players into an alternate timeline where everything is somehow both familiar and utterly nonsensical. It’s like a bad fan fiction that somehow got greenlit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grommash Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Our favorite orc is back, but in an alternate universe where he’s even more insufferable. Because why not double down on a character nobody really wanted to see again?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrosh Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Yes, Garrosh is here too, because we all needed more of his daddy issues and genocidal tendencies. Thanks, Blizzard, for giving us more of what we never asked for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Alternate Draenor:&#039;&#039;&#039; A world that’s essentially Outland, but prettier and more pointless. It’s like paying for a remastered version of a game you never liked in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Garrisons Galore&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought you were signing up for epic battles and immersive quests, think again. WoD offers you the joy of micromanaging your very own garrison, because who wouldn’t want to play World of Warcraft: SimCity Edition?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrisons:&#039;&#039;&#039; A brilliant idea, executed with the finesse of a toddler with finger paint. You get to spend hours gathering resources, sending followers on missions, and watching paint dry. Thrilling!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Follower Missions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who needs actual gameplay when you can send NPCs to do everything for you? It’s like being the middle manager of Azeroth, minus the paycheck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Content Drought:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard promised a river of content, but all we got was a trickle. By the time you’re done with your garrison chores, you’ll realize there’s nothing else to do. It’s like they ran out of ideas and just hoped nobody would notice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: The Saving Grace&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even in this sea of mediocrity, there are a few islands of decency. The raids and dungeons in WoD are surprisingly well-designed, which only highlights how much better the expansion could have been if Blizzard had actually tried.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Highmaul:&#039;&#039;&#039; A decent raid that almost makes you forget the garbage fire outside. Almost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Blackrock Foundry:&#039;&#039;&#039; Another solid raid, proving that the dungeon design team is the only one that didn’t take an extended coffee break during development.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Lipstick on a Pig&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoD looks and sounds beautiful, which is the cruelest irony of all. It’s like putting a fresh coat of paint on a sinking ship. Sure, it’s pretty, but you’re still going down with the wreck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gorgeous environments and character models that make you wish there was more to do in this pretty, empty world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic scores that make you feel like you’re about to embark on a grand adventure, only to realize you’re just going back to your garrison to collect more herbs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Rage and Despair&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The player base’s reaction to WoD can best be described as a collective scream into the void. Forums were ablaze with complaints, and subscriber numbers plummeted faster than Blizzard’s standards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; WoD managed to drive away millions of players, proving that not even brand loyalty can save a bad expansion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Forums:&#039;&#039;&#039; A hotbed of rage, where every thread is a monument to Blizzard’s monumental screw-up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Obvious Conclusion: An Expansion Best Forgotten&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Warlords of Draenor is a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and turn it into a chore simulator. It’s a cautionary tale for game developers everywhere: don’t take your player base for granted, or you might just end up with a steaming pile of disappointment like WoD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re a masochist who enjoys being let down, by all means, dive into &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039;. For everyone else, steer clear and hope Blizzard learned their lesson.&lt;br /&gt;

===Legion [LEG]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Legion box art.jpg|thumb|right|Welcome to Legion. Don&#039;t forget to do your daily quests, noob.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Legion&#039;&#039;&#039;, the World of Warcraft expansion that promised to be the savior of Azeroth but ended up being the equivalent of inviting your in-laws for a weekend and them never leaving. Released in 2016, Legion is Blizzard’s attempt to milk the nostalgia of the Burning Crusade while introducing mechanics that make you want to smash your keyboard into a thousand pieces. Let&#039;s dive into this trainwreck, shall we?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Rehashing the Rehashed&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, the storyline! What a masterpiece of recycled plots and half-baked ideas. Legion brings back our old pal, the Burning Legion, because apparently, Blizzard ran out of new enemies and decided that the third time&#039;s the charm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan&#039;s Redemption:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who knew the angsty, blind anti-hero with a god complex needed redemption? Blizzard, that’s who. Illidan’s return is like finding out your ex is back in town and just as insufferable as ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Artifact Weapons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who needs originality when you can just give everyone a shiny weapon with the same backstory: &amp;quot;This weapon is super important, just trust us.&amp;quot; Oh, and don’t forget to grind endlessly to make it marginally better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Class Halls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The lazy man&#039;s Garrisons, where you can pretend to be important while sending minions on missions because actually playing the game is too mainstream.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: A Grind by Any Other Name&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion’s gameplay loop is like a hamster wheel designed by someone who hates hamsters. It&#039;s an endless cycle of grinding that leaves you wondering why you didn’t just take up knitting instead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; A fantastic way to disguise daily quests by making you travel longer distances for the same mundane tasks. Blizzard’s way of saying, “We know you love busywork.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mythic+ Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Perfect for those who enjoy the sensation of banging their head against a brick wall. Higher keys don’t mean more fun, just more chances for your group to screw up spectacularly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Legendaries:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[Jesus|RNG-esus]] has blessed us with a system where you either get an item that makes you a god or one that’s about as useful as a chocolate teapot. Praise be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Credit where it’s due, the visuals and sound in Legion are top-notch. It’s just a shame they’re wasted on content that makes you want to gouge your eyes out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Beautifully designed and visually stunning, the zones of Legion are the perfect backdrop for your suffering. Enjoy the sights as you contemplate your life choices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic and immersive, the soundtrack is a symphony of sorrow and regret, perfectly capturing the essence of your Legion experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Love to Hate It&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community&#039;s reaction to Legion has been a rollercoaster of emotions, mostly ranging from blind rage to begrudging acceptance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Haters:&#039;&#039;&#039; These folks believe Blizzard should’ve let the Burning Legion stay dead. Their forums posts are masterpieces of vitriol, each more scathing than the last.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Fanboys:&#039;&#039;&#039; Die-hard fans who defend Legion with the fervor of a zealot, claiming that “at least it’s better than Warlords of Draenor.” High praise indeed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;In The End: A Love-Hate Relationship&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion is the expansion that everyone loves to hate. It’s a mishmash of good ideas executed poorly, wrapped in a shiny package of nostalgia. It’s like Blizzard took a look at their greatest hits, remixed them, and then dropped the mic with a smug grin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re into endless grinding, recycled villains, and RNG loot that makes you question your sanity, then Legion is the expansion for you. Dive in, and enjoy the exquisite pain that only a Blizzard game can deliver. Cheers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Battle For Azeroth [BFA]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Battle for azeroth.jpg|thumb|Welcome to BFA. Your full time job.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Battle For Azeroth&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Battle for Azeroth (BFA), the expansion where Blizzard Entertainment decided to take everything we loved about World of Warcraft and throw it into a blender, hit puree, and serve it to us with a smile. Released in 2018, BFA promised epic faction warfare but delivered a steaming pile of mediocrity wrapped in grind and frustration. So, grab your popcorn and brace yourself for a brutally honest, hilariously scathing telling of one of the most hated expansions in WoW history.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: The Soap Opera Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, thought we needed more faction drama. The result? A storyline that makes daytime soap operas look like Shakespearean masterpieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Burning of Teldrassil:&#039;&#039;&#039; Nothing says &amp;quot;fun&amp;quot; like watching a beloved world tree go up in flames. Sylvanas goes full pyromaniac, and we’re supposed to feel… what? Empathy? Rage? Mostly, we just felt the urge to log out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Siege of Lordaeron:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sylvanas, now a discount Saturday morning cartoon villain, decides to play the “let’s gas everyone” card. It&#039;s like watching Wile E. Coyote with a more twisted sense of humor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Faction Pride:&#039;&#039;&#039; The so-called faction pride storyline was as forced as a toddler’s apology. Alliance vs. Horde? More like Player vs. Will to Live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: The Grind of a Lifetime&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039; was bad with its garrison chores, Battle for Azeroth takes grinding to a new level of hell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Azerite Armor:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let’s talk about the system that everyone loves to hate. Unlocking traits on Azerite gear was about as fun as a dental visit. Oh, joy, more grinding for RNG rewards!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Island Expeditions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Procedurally generated boredom at its finest. Collect Azerite! Fight NPCs! Repeat ad nauseam. They were supposed to be exciting, but were about as thrilling as watching paint dry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Warfronts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s answer to “What if we made PvE even more mind-numbing?” Warfronts were like playing a game of Risk, but with all the strategic depth of tic-tac-toe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd Syndrome&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To give credit where it’s due, the art team at Blizzard deserves a medal for polishing this turd. The zones are beautiful, the music is epic, and the cinematics are top-notch. But you know what they say, you can’t polish a turd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Stunning landscapes, rich details, and breathtaking visuals that make you wonder why the gameplay couldn’t match the graphics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sweeping scores that make you feel like you’re on an epic quest… until you remember you’re grinding Azerite in a repetitive, soul-crushing loop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Dumpster Fire&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to BFA can be summed up in one word: dumpster fire. Forums were ablaze with outrage, social media was a battleground of discontent, and even the most loyal fans found themselves questioning Blizzard’s sanity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; Players unsubscribed faster than rats fleeing a sinking ship. Blizzard’s answer? More grinding, because that’ll fix it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Feedback:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s response to feedback was like watching a deaf mime perform: utterly useless and slightly painful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Reality: An Epic Fail&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039; will go down in history as a masterclass in how not to design a game expansion. From the disastrous storyline to the mind-numbing grind, BFA managed to disappoint on every conceivable level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re looking for an expansion that promises epic warfare but delivers endless frustration, BFA is your ticket to misery. Here’s to hoping the next expansion is better – it can’t possibly be worse, right? Right!?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the unintentional comedy and the epic anti-climax that is &#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039;. May it rest in pieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Guilds ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Warcraft Mutant Cosplay.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Your typical &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; player. Note the mutated jawline and [[cosplay]] dress.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like every MMORPG, in order to see the vast majority of the game, players will need to join a guild. The purpose of a guild is to enable the guild master and his best friends to get run through the high level dungeons so they can gear up their characters, so they can go into the next dungeon and get the next set of gear for themselves. It is the responsibility of the other guild members to somehow get their own gear so they can help keep their online masters clothed in the most fashionable of equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Guilds tend to be a great source of drama, especially when epic loots are involved. Due to this, guilds seem to form up and dissolve every second.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, guilds go batshit insane clearing bosses, finishing content faster than Blizzard can hammer out. Butthurt about having to produce content while basement dwellers fork out $15 a month, Blizzard, being the Jews that they are, decided it was more cost effective and lulz inducing to drop the Banhammer on such guilds ([http://web.archive.org/web/1/http://www.wow.com/2010/02/04/ensidia-temporarily-banned-for-exploits/ 2010]) than create more content. Naturally, much drama ensued on the forums and many members threatened to stop their $15 a month subscription if their rightful loot was given back and ban&#039;s were lifted. Blizzard&#039;s response was the Banhammer to many other instigators of drama, solving many server capacity problems. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard is also strongly opposed to debugging software, and when glitches and exploits are reported they will drop the Banhammer rather than fix anything or admit their mistake. Whenever a Guild gets a &amp;quot;World First Kill&amp;quot;, they will be swiftly banned for awareness of numerous exploits. This is how the game is beta tested. This will happen repeatedly until the next 10 patches come out and no one can remember anything about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on RP (Roleplaying) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You might encounter more [[Shit nobody cares about|strict laws]] over guild names and their contents on roleplaying realms such as [[Argent Dawn (EU)]], where your guild name is forced to be IC ([[Serious Business|In character]]), otherwise the [[Nazis|Game Masters]] would not hesistate to punish you if [[Homosexuals|some player(s)]] report you. However, you might also notice some exceptional guilds on this merciless realm which shine like bright sun over all the darkness. A good example would be [[Argent_Dawn_(EU)#DEFNDERS_OF_HEV_RP|DEFNDERS OF HEV RP]]. These brave warriors are led by General Shikoradoro and his comrades; Röman, Philippson, [[Basement-dweller|Mythrios]] and countless number of other &#039;&#039;Doro&#039;&#039; members. They are type of guys that you will fucking hate and love at same time. They speak their own language called &amp;quot;Elwynnian&amp;quot; which is believed to be a dialect of Mongolian, but it&#039;s still quite different and unique. They mainly operate in wild Elwynn Forest, particularly in Stormwind City and Goldshire. Quite interdasting bunch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another interdasting example from the same realm would be The Stormguard. The Stormguard is a military roleplaying guild that basically does nothing but to walk around stormwind with big ass armor on their boosted characters. Led by a female character that has serious sexual issues and believes she&#039;s a man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvP (Player versus Player) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP guilds are generally regarded as badass and cool, but extraordinary types are present.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dara Mactire&#039;&#039;&#039;, or however the fuck it&#039;s spelled is a way too serious PvP guild located on the US realm Darkspear. I think, well they are everywhere now even on the EU. They are a bunch of nerds that think it&#039;s cool to add in way too serious dubstep intros with serious editing skills that form the word: Dara Mactire. Funnily, it was nothing until Swifty joined it and made it famous because of his fanboys wanting to be in the same guild as their hero. Yet, nobody even know who their fucking guild leader is as hes an ungreatful twat getting his guild famous without even making any kind of video to thank Swifty for promoting him from a loser to a even greater loser.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;A Bunch of Gankers&#039;&#039;&#039;, formerly called The Holy Half deads, is a bunch of people that never knew how to PvP yet wanting to believe they could, gathered in one single guild. So therefore it&#039;s an army of noobs that work like a zerg unit. Overwhelming their enemies by pure numbers. Their guild leader, whose name is Fail. Has been kicked out of several servers before, as they now are somewhere only higher powers knows. They will probably keep on changing realm as they get asskicked by every single pvp orientated guilds on each server.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvE (Player versus Environment) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This type of guilds are probably most common type of guilds you can find in any fucking realm. They are usually underestimated by PvPers and viewed as [[truth|pussies, losers, nerds and such]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Ensidia&#039;&#039;&#039;, or something, they change name the same often as normal people change their underwear. Is a guild filled of PvE noobs that are way too bad to even be serious and competitive PvPers so they try to look skilled and hardcore by focusing nobody else links to skill: PvElol. Their guild leader, Kungen, meaning king in Swedish has never ever even killed a player from the opposing faction. Not that he would be able too if he saw one, as mentioned, thats why he choose PvE. Because it&#039;s not enough to kill million fucking NPCs to reach the maximum level. They want to torment themselves by questing and doing worthless raids even more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Official WoW Forums ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with most good [[MMORPG]]s, &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; has its own public forums. Subscribers can discuss tactics, roleplay, offer up item trades and sales, and of course, bitch and moan about how the game sucks and everyone should be playing &#039;&#039;[[Warhammer]]&#039;&#039; instead. (Which they SHOULD be.) Chuck Norris jokes, horrifying roleplay, &amp;quot;hug a class&amp;quot; posts, trolling posts, worthless bug reports, really STUPID suggestions for future patches... All that and a bag of chips is what you&#039;ll find within these hallowed walls.&lt;br /&gt;

{{morphquote|AICBL|background-color: white; width:65%; height:auto|font-weight: bold;&lt;br /&gt;
|We are aware of the concerns regarding situations where players are unable to zone into an instance due to an instance limit being hit, which results in a message stating that additional instances cannot be launched. This limit was implemented as a short-term solution to preserve the gameplay for players who are already in an instance and to prevent numerous issues that can happen when too many instances are active at the same time, but we are currently working on better solutions to ensure that players can get into instances when they want to.&lt;br /&gt;
|Bornakk, a concerned GM&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|Bump. Please fix this. It&#039;s maddening and very, very frustrating. Sometimes I can get in an instance within a couple minutes and others it will take over an hour.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m okay with performance scaling - but, at least introduce a queue so we know how long it will be and don&#039;t have to keep going at the portal like a retarded dog jumping into a glass door.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some time after the release of the second expansion pack (see above), a massive &amp;quot;bug&amp;quot; was discovered in &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; wherein people could no longer gain their epic lewts. When a player tries to enter a dungeon portal, a large message will flash on their screen stating &amp;quot;Additional instances cannot be launched, please try again later&amp;quot;. Most people took great offense to this as they figured since they were giving Blizzard their money, they should be entitled to do what they want when they want how they want. The truth of the matter is that Blizzard&#039;s hardware just can&#039;t keep up with all the people &amp;quot;raiding&amp;quot; at the same time. Naturally, people just don&#039;t want to believe this due to the fact that Blizzard takes in at least $165,000,000 USD a month in revenue. ($15.00/month x 11 million people.) What people don&#039;t seem to realize is that Blizzard also wants people to GO OUTSIDE AND GET SOME FRESH AIR YOU FUCKING LOSERS.&lt;br /&gt;

== [[Shit|Blizzcon]], Also Where Nobody Gets Laid ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally WoW players will leave their homes for what the blue names call &amp;quot;Blizzcon&amp;quot;, and what WoW players call &amp;quot;5\/\/337 d00d&amp;quot;. Here, a large number of &amp;quot;WoW patients&amp;quot; can be seen. Their complications are diverse - ranging from mild conditions such as Carpal Tunnel and [[Leetspeak]], to a severe case of [[ugly]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Sometimes&#039;&#039; attractive people can be seen at a Blizzcon claiming to be WoW faggots. These are not really WoW faggots; they are models paid by Blizzard to appear at these pathetic vomit-inducing functions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzcon features a wide variety of activities;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Class Q+A: a forum for people who play hunters to make death threats to Metzen whenever playing their class approaches any kind of difficulty, and for ret paladins to complain that every class but them is OP because they died twice in a WSG last year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Lore Q+A: exactly as retarded as it sounds; a bunch of chinless, manboob-sporting retards screeching at Mezten because &amp;lt;strike&amp;gt;Thrall&#039;s&amp;lt;/strike&amp;gt; Jaina&#039;s left testicle is saggier in-game than it&#039;s described as being in the official novels.&lt;br /&gt;
* Dance Competition: an assortment of spastic, bony individuals who either do an extremely easy dance from the game or fail horribly at a more difficult one. On occasion a morbidly obese person will attempt one of the more athletic dances. The result is rather like watching a plane crash.&lt;br /&gt;
* Costume Contest: these deeply unattractive people are paraded in front of the crowd; the usual assortment being obese men in their twenties wearing paladin gear clearly made from ceral boxes; ugly girls who clearly worked very hard on their costumes but get no applause because they&#039;re not physically attractive, and sluts with shitty costumes who get a standing ovation because you can see their nipples, causing most of the crowd to go into a sort of feeding-frenzy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only reason to go to this convention is to seal the deal on finally quitting WoW, realizing that these are the horrible people you have been playing with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Addiction ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Divorce money.jpg|thumb|What you are doing when you buy WoW and these expansions]]&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|MMORPG Freak Out}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sufferers of the WoW addiction commonly refer to themselves as &amp;quot;WoWers&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;[[gamers|GamerZ]]&amp;quot;, or in the most severe cases as &amp;quot;Alliance&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Horde&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW addiction goes through several phases, phases of chemical drug addictions. This should comes as no surprise, as the Blizzard employees are reportedly paid in [[crack]]. WoW takes several steps beyond mundane addictions, with increasingly unstable behavior. If you have a friend or colleague whom you suspect of being a WoW addict, it is important to carefully gauge their level of addiction before taking any other action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Check their room for a &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot; box, subscription card, or wrist brace. Often early signs such as this can make all the difference, since while it&#039;s unlikely they will be cured, you can take action to prevent friends and loved ones from being infected.&lt;br /&gt;
* If you happen to walk in on a WoWer during on of their sessions, (as is most likely the case since that’s about all they ever do), DO NOT and I repeat &#039;&#039;&#039;DO NOT&#039;&#039;&#039;, interrupt the game. He may try to gank you with his replica sword he got at the Renfaire.&lt;br /&gt;
* It&#039;s entirely possible that you may catch a WoWer during an intense masturbation session (typically mid-cyber in the tram). You have been warned.&lt;br /&gt;
* From bank statements, see if they&#039;re buying from Chinese gold farmers. If you find this to be the case, you can be sure their addiction has taken precedence over any other financial considerations, and should immediately remove any items of value from anywhere in the area. Don&#039;t worry, they&#039;ll be too busy grinding to stop you.&lt;br /&gt;
* Severe addicts will commonly be in the habit of shitting in socks so as not to leave one&#039;s seat and thus get ganked by some level 23 loser. These hopeless cases are referred to as &amp;quot;poopsockers&amp;quot;, and should be &#039;&#039;&#039;terminated with extreme prejudice.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are but four cures for WoW addiction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Their self extermination. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Assisted extermination by a merciful soul. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Having a shred of willpower, and selling your account for many real dollars to some more-addicted sucker. Then you can buy delicious cake.&lt;br /&gt;
* Make them play &#039;&#039;[[Darkfall]]&#039;&#039; for a week. They&#039;ll be sure to never play MMORPGs ever again!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Players spend countless hours over this game. It will be hard to break them of their addiction, but in rare cases, if they kill themselves like [[Shawn Woolley]] did with EQ, you can Lysol their PC down and sell it. Sometimes some [[fags]] kill themselves just because they get so attached to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*There is however a risk with breaking a WoW players addiction by force. Certain under 18 players are prone to extreme meltdowns on the scale of Chernobyl. Scientists point to this phenomenon triggering when said players parents deny access to &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;. It is highly recommended that anyone living within the vicinity of said players immediately evacuate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:Gold farmers warcraft.jpg|thumb|Farming is srs bzns for [[Azns]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Modern [[slaves|slavery]] is known as &amp;quot;Gold Farming&amp;quot; and is intended to keep the Yellow menace down. When the [[United States]] banned slavery, it was a very sad time for slave owners. Later, the black person started to demand reparations, so something &#039;&#039;simply had to be done.&#039;&#039; [[The Man]] decided that slavery had to be moved offshore, to ensure continued economic prosperity for [[Microsoft]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Farming has been around since before the Internet, but nobody could ever figure out how to grow money until &#039;&#039;[[Ultima_online|Ultima Online]]&#039;&#039; was invented. It isn&#039;t known who made the initial breakthrough, but it&#039;s thought that Alan Greenspan&#039;s lackeys were primarily responsible, since only they could have conceived of such a brilliantly sick and perverse means of enriching themselves. However, the advent of the practice was probably inevitable, since despite their addiction, WoWers often find themselves unable to play 24 hours a day and must find another way to continue while they sleep, eat, or go to the bathroom. So, for $0.50 per hour, a |barely-educated commie living in a sweaty room will play WoW for them. Needless to say, the commie himself earns roughly [[wat|$0.05 per week.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it&#039;s difficult for players to distinguish the gold-field workers from monkeys or robots. They often repeat the same mistakes and speak gibberish (like monkeys!) Work is being done to translate some of their [[moonspeak]]. Know your Chinaman by these phrases: &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;ni hao&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;[Krol Blade] ok??&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;water 1g?&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;is 4 guildie&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;deal giev ok??10g&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;tusoNgaMe $5 4 2thousand free!&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those that speak English become the &amp;quot;boss boss&amp;quot; and take all the money, while the slaves do all the work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Trolling Techniques ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Wikipedousersmall.png|thumb|Showing those fucking paladins how it&#039;s done.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These generate various effects - some bring lulz and some just [[fail]]. Experiment and find your own lulz. However, Blizzard, like most companies, disabled trade/chatroom from trial accounts, because of [[Chink]] gold farmers. A paid account is required for the best effort in [[lulz]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Set auto follow on new players; for whatever reason this really pisses people off.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join parties for dungeons as a healer and then leave about halfway through without saying anything. It works very well. Bonus points if you leave while your group is fighting the last boss of the dungeon.&lt;br /&gt;
# Lead a party into an instance and then randomly boot players from it.&lt;br /&gt;
# Start listing the name of movies with &amp;quot;Murloc&amp;quot; in the title like &#039;&#039;Indiana Murloc and The Temple of Doom&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;Debbie Does Murloc&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
# If Horde, start shit with people in Barrens chat. It&#039;s a non-PvP area filled with low level players, so they can&#039;t hurt you or retaliate. You can troll to your heart&#039;s content.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join battlegrounds at the lowest level possible, and start talking shit about how people have no fucking idea how to play the game.&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja any piece of loot. This will require a time investment, but if you steal the right piece of loot, you will ignite a shitstorm of drama that should keep you entertained for at least five minutes. You won&#039;t get banned as long you&#039;re not stupid enough to post loot rules in chat, GMs won&#039;t have anything to pin on you.&lt;br /&gt;
# Tell people what to do, and when they say you have no idea what you&#039;re on about, retaliate with &amp;quot;Your such a noob, I have five level 80&#039;s and three Death Knights, I know what I&#039;m talking about&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# When using the auction house, be sure to put up shit people need without buyout. Then pull it off the auction house before it sells - this is essentially the closest any WoW player gets to the transfer of goods between consenting individuals.&lt;br /&gt;
# Announce in trade chat that [name of player] is quitting WoW forever and is giving all their gold to the first person who whispers them!&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja a Bloody Apron as a rogue from a priest who doesn&#039;t need it but will whine to their guild to boot that rogue&lt;br /&gt;
# Link any item in trade chat, and state that the last person to link the same item will receive a large sum of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# When in dungeons as a hunter or rogue, use Misdirection or Tricks of the Trade on a healer and attack a large group of enemies.&lt;br /&gt;
# Play as a warlock and fear inside an instance, lulz and rage will ensue.&lt;br /&gt;
# Bitch loudly about how you can&#039;t spend achievement points.&lt;br /&gt;
# Spam trade chat with Anal then a spell, ability, quest, achievement etc &lt;br /&gt;
# Note that &#039;&#039;[[RuneScape]]&#039;&#039; is a much superior online game.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- # Point them to [http://wowflames.com Wowflames.com]! --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# As a priest, use Mind Control on other players when dueling on locations that have cliffs you can jump off and/or while waiting for zeppelins / boats to leave.&lt;br /&gt;
# Accuse all Worgen and Pandaren players of being [[furry|furries]]. This will always cause rage and lulz because it&#039;s [[fact|true]].&lt;br /&gt;
# As a Paladin Tank, use Divine Shield and watch the enemies kill your party members.&lt;br /&gt;
# Use the auction houses to rig the prices of basic items to the maximum amount of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# Roll need on as much loot as you can in groups.&lt;br /&gt;
# If you duel an opposing faction member in a neutral town, hit /forfeit the moment you get hit. It may not work anymore, but when it did, it caused a lot of lulz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Private Servers ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Private servers are available for poor people and unemployed losers that can&#039;t pay $15 per month for the retail version. The downside is that they are utterly glitched. It is not unusual that &#039;&amp;quot;instanced dungeons&amp;quot;&#039; (Special zones wherein most end game content can be found. They are fractioned into unique, temporary dimensions for each player, and can only be entered simultaneously by players with the help of Blizzard&#039;s &amp;quot;raid&amp;quot;- and &amp;quot;party&amp;quot; functions.) Private server providers compensate for their dysfunctional service by setting the experience point and item drop rate up to mega volume. There are two genres of private servers: &amp;quot;Funservers&amp;quot; where you instantly gain maximum level and can get the best gear from a vendor where you begin. Then there are the &amp;quot;blizzlike&amp;quot; servers which have a leveling rate that is five- or tenfolded. When you hit maximum level on a blizzlike server, you start roaming the world looking for some kind of glitch to gain treasure. After all, [[it&#039;s not a bug, it&#039;s a feature]]. Alternatively, you can [[lurk]] your private server&#039;s web forum to wait for the next official event. This consists of a private server admin summoning a boss which drops loot. If you get [[1337]] gear, you can brag to everyone in your guild, general chat and forum. Though, in the next day, the server and its data is probably gone forever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are pristine emulations of Blizzard&#039;s servers. However, they tend to vanish untraceable in the night. This is probably because they face Blizzard&#039;s judicial [[banhammer]]. [http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/05/blizzard-legal-targets-private-servers/ Blizzard targeted the fuck out of private servers. Oops.] There is also this cancerous blight known as &#039;&#039;Private&#039;&#039; Role-Playing servers. Filled with shitty admins and mind-crippled community, they are easy to troll while avoiding getting banned since their masterful devs only know how to edit posts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Je suis Nostalrius ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out of the mess of glitchy private servers out there, there is the occasional diamond in the rough. Nostalrius was that diamond.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike other private servers that were made to sidestep Blizzard&#039;s jewry, Nostalrius was meant to be a legacy server that provided a vanilla experience. Run by only thirty volunteers, they worked around the clock to maintain the server like it was an official server, and for a whole year, it was fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;What happen?&#039;&#039;&#039;: Blizzard caught wind that someone made a better service then them, and dropped the [[Lolsuit]] hard. Over a million accounts on the server were wiped, and the server was shut down. Another private server gone, so everything should be good right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, except for the fact that Nostalrius was a private legacy server, running in Vanilla WoW since new WoW has become a casualized mess. The server was created since Blizzard for whatever reason, refuses to create servers for nostalgia fags.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;youtube&amp;gt;XuOYmqSF6OQ&amp;lt;/youtube&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reaction over the shutdown was so massive, a civil war broke out in the toxic hellhole known as [http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1975197-Blizzard-shuts-down-Vanilla-Private-Server-Nostralius MMO-Champion], several Jewtubers (Including [[Jontron]] of all people) made angry rants, and another million players cancelled their future WoW subs. Great job Blizzard, that&#039;ll show those retards who just want a simple service that thirty people for free were providing.&lt;br /&gt;

A man wanted for marijuana possession fled the country. He continued playing &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; and so [[Blizzard Entertainment]] narced him out. He was caught and brought back to the USA. {{Archive|dvWCz|Read Here}}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{achtung|Playing World of Warcraft may cause insanity and an increased risk of turning into a basement-dwelling loot goblin.}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{breakingnews|Blizzard dropped the banhammer on Nostalrius. That&#039;ll surely get their seven million lost subs back!}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{spoilers|text=The grand twist in this game is that the real final boss is your own social life crumbling from neglect. Even the NPCs lead more exciting lives than you!!!}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to World of Warcraft (unironically shortened to &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot;), the digital wasteland where your dreams of heroism go to die and your patience is stretched thinner than the plot of a Michael Bay movie. Launched in 2004 by Blizzard Entertainment, WoW (as in WOW, my life went down the shitter) has managed to captivate millions of [[retards|players]] worldwide, mainly by trapping them in an [[real life|endless cycle of grinding and disappointment]]. With lore so convoluted and undecipherable, it would take eons for linguists around the world to actually understand what the actual fuck Chris Metzen snorted while &amp;quot;envisioning&amp;quot; this crap. It makes &#039;&#039;Silmarillion&#039;&#039; look like a five-minute bed time story specifically written for children with fragile x syndrome. Strap in, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the cesspool of Azeroth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Graphics: Ancient Relics ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Graphics—where mountains resemble freshly baked loaves of bread, and trees look like they&#039;re made from crumpled-up gift wrap. It&#039;s like Blizzard handed the development team a box of crayons from 2004 and said, &amp;quot;Go nuts!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The water? Oh, that&#039;s a masterpiece—who doesn&#039;t love reflective puddles that look like shiny plastic wrap stretched over Jell-O? And let&#039;s not forget the iconic NPC faces. It&#039;s like they all went to the same plastic surgeon who only knows two expressions: &amp;quot;I&#039;m slightly concerned&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;I just smelled a fart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then there’s the foliage! Nothing screams &amp;quot;immersive realism&amp;quot; like flat, paper-thin grass that clips through your boots as if it&#039;s given up on life. It&#039;s as if Azeroth is secretly sponsored by a discount origami company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The real charm, though, is in the armor design. Why does a shoulder piece for a level 20 character look like they’re carrying an entire medieval dining set on each shoulder? Practicality clearly isn’t a concern when you&#039;re walking around with shoulder pads so massive, you need FAA clearance to enter Stormwind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#039;s not overlook those classic textures. WoW&#039;s cobblestones look like someone smeared a JPEG from 1999 across the ground and called it a day. And yet, somehow, these low-res visuals still demand a gaming PC from NASA to hit 60 FPS during a raid. Truly, a marvel of modern optimization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay: Grind Until You Die ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft’s gameplay is like being handed a spoon and told to dig a hole to the center of the Earth, only to fill it back up again once you’re halfway there—or maybe it’s more like trying to empty an ocean with a leaky bucket while a crab bites your toes. In this epic fantasy realm, you’ll embark on “world-saving” quests, also known as glorified errands, like “Collect 10 bear asses.” Yes, bear asses—because apparently, in Azeroth, bears have somehow evolved to grow multiple asses, and you’re the only hero brave enough to harvest them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These “quests” are repetitive fetch missions that could easily be outsourced to any halfway competent NPC, but no, you are the chosen one—the bearer of buckets, the picker-upper of random crap, the unpaid intern of the gods. Every click of your mouse is a solemn reminder that you’re shelling out a monthly fee to perform glorified virtual chores. It’s like paying someone to let you vacuum their house.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And while you’re out there scraping bear asses and picking up literally glowing mushrooms, the so-called villains of the game are just chilling. These are the big bads who supposedly threaten the entire world, yet they’re hanging out in their dungeons like they’re at a company retreat. Surrounded by armies of overly enthusiastic minions who are just… standing there, waiting for you to arrive. Honestly, you could probably knock on their front door, and they’d open it like, “Oh good, you’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for someone to kill us for years.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But hey, it’s not all bad. At least you get to enjoy the satisfaction of grinding for hours to earn a shiny new sword that looks exactly like your last sword, except now it glows. Progress, baby. Welcome to World of Warcraft: where the real hero isn’t you—it’s your ability to endure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Leveling:&#039;&#039;&#039; Experience the joy of killing the same boar 10,000 times to gain a single level. It&#039;s like Groundhog Day, but without the comedic relief.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Raiding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gather a group of socially awkward strangers to take down a boss that drops gear you don’t need. If the game mechanics don&#039;t kill you, your teammates&#039; incompetence will.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;PvP:&#039;&#039;&#039; Dive into the world of PvP where balance is a myth and every rogue is a stealthy demon sent straight from hell to ruin your day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Storyline: A Soap Opera on Steroids ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of WoW is a convoluted mess that makes Days of Our Lives look like a masterpiece of coherent storytelling. Every expansion brings more plot twists and lore retcons than you can shake a stick at.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Factions:&#039;&#039;&#039; The eternal struggle between the Horde and the Alliance is like watching two toddlers fight over a toy – entertaining for a moment, but ultimately pointless and exhausting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Villains:&#039;&#039;&#039; From the Lich King to Sylvanas Windrunner, every villain is a misunderstood anti-hero with daddy issues. It&#039;s like Blizzard hired a team of therapists to write the lore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Community: A Hive of Scum and Villainy ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The WoW community is a mixed bag of elitists, trolls, and those poor souls who genuinely enjoy the game. The general chat is a cesspool of spam, political arguments, and unsolicited advice on how to play your class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Elitists:&#039;&#039;&#039; These players think they are gods among mortals, looking down upon anyone who dares to enjoy the game casually.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trolls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The bane of any online community, trolls in WoW are a special breed. They thrive on chaos and your tears, and they won’t stop until they’ve made you regret logging in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Normal People:&#039;&#039;&#039; Normal people were just trying to enjoy the game, but eventually saw through the facade of pure shite and ultimately left the game a few expansions ago.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Updates: Or Lack Thereof ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard’s approach to updates can be summed up as “better late than never.” Each patch promises to fix what’s broken, but usually just introduces new ways to break the game. The developers&#039; motto seems to be, “If it ain&#039;t broke, we’ll fix that.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Microtransactions: Pay to Play, and Pay Some More ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Micro transactions wow.jpg|left|thumb|Buy, buy and buy some moar!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW has embraced microtransactions with the fervor of a televangelist asking for donations. Mounts, pets, character boosts – all available for the low, low price of your dignity. It’s like paying extra for the privilege of being disappointed faster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Main Idea: A Beautiful Disaster ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft is the ultimate exercise in masochism. It’s a beautifully designed trap that lures you in with promises of adventure and camaraderie, only to beat you down with endless grind and toxic community interactions. If you’re looking for a game that will suck away your time, money, and soul, then WoW is the perfect choice. Enjoy the ride to nowhere, because in the end, the real boss fight is against your own sense of self-worth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Starting zones.jpg|center|500px|Typical starting zones.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Races ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome, brave souls, to the sardonic safari of World of Warcraft’s races, where fantasy clichés meet the most ridiculous stereotypes the gaming world has to offer. Hold onto your keyboards as we dive into the wonderful, woeful world of Azeroth’s inhabitants. It’s time to see who really stands out… or in most cases, who stands way too far out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Alliance ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The so-called &amp;quot;noble&amp;quot; faction of World of Warcraft, where everyone is apparently too busy polishing their armor and patting themselves on the back to notice how insufferably pretentious they are. Gather &#039;round, dear reader, as we embark on a tour of this faction, which, quite frankly, could use a dose of humility and a reality check.&lt;br /&gt;

|The Humans. The race that defines &amp;quot;average&amp;quot; with all the enthusiasm of a damp sponge. They&#039;re the most generic fantasy fodder you can imagine: just your everyday medieval peasants with a king complex. Want to know what a human in WoW is like? Picture that guy in the office who thinks he&#039;s the main character in a dramatic novel. &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow dwarfs.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Dwarves: The Short Stack Stereotypes&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Dwarves are basically hobbits with a drinking problem and a miner’s helmet. Imagine a group of guys who think &amp;quot;tall&amp;quot; is a cardinal sin and that “work” should be synonymous with “beer.” They’re short, they’re stout, and they’ve got a chip on their shoulder the size of their ego. Great at mining, terrible at everything else, especially personal hygiene. In most high-fantasy works, these lilliputian, anthropomorphic, hairy Muppets are often compared to real-life [[Jews]] due to their obsession with treasure, their extreme xenophobia, and their consistent display of a God complex.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow gnomes.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Gnomes: The Tiny Tech Terrorists&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Gnomes are the tiny tech enthusiasts of Azeroth, always tinkering with gadgets and gizmos. Their advanced intellect is overshadowed only by their insufferable personalities. They&#039;re like that annoying kid in class who always had to be right, corrected the teacher, and/or constantly requested more homework. Playing a gnome means embracing your inner know-it-all and annoying everyone in sight with your [[sarcasm|superior intellect]].&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Night elf wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Night Elves: The Tree-Hugging Hippies&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Night Elves, the ultimate eco-warriors who spend their days frolicking in forests and talking to animals while embracing their inner homosexuality. Their obsession with nature is so extreme, you half expect them to chain themselves to a tree in protest of logging. With their &amp;quot;shadowmeld&amp;quot; ability, they can disappear into the shadows – perfect for avoiding responsibility and accountability, like the dirty hippies they are.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Space goats wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Draenei: The Holier-Than-Thou Space Goats&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|The Draenei are the self-righteous space goats who crash-landed on Azeroth and decided to grace everyone with their moral superiority. With their glowing eyes and incessant preaching about the Light, they’re basically the Jehovah’s Witnesses of WoW. If you enjoy lecturing others on everything while virtue signaling and ignoring your own flaws, then the Draenei are your kindred spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Worgen wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Worgen: The Furry Fiasco&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Worgen are the werewolf wannabes who can’t decide if they want to be human or beast. They spend half their time transforming and the other half brooding about their curse, like a bipolar furry. Their duality is supposed to be intriguing and ezoteric, but ends up being as exciting as a cringey high school goth phase. Play a Worgen if you enjoy unnecessary drama, perpetual identity crisis and especially, if you&#039;re a sick fuck who likes to masturbate looking at Dragonkin porn on [[Rule 34]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== [[Afghanistan|The Horde]] ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ragtag group of misfits, outcasts, and supposed [[dipshits|badasses]] of the World of Warcraft universe. If ever there was a faction that embodies the chaotic energy of a middle school cafeteria, it&#039;s this one. Buckle up, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the murky depths of this so-called &amp;quot;[[cringe|faction of honor and strength]]&amp;quot; – with a heavy dose of &amp;quot;fuck off&amp;quot; and a side of unfiltered disdain, delivered by 40-year-old keyboard warrior manchildren who embody the internet tough guy meme perfectly.&lt;br /&gt;

|Orcs are the muscle-bound neanderthals of Azeroth who came here to literally kill, pillage, rape and destroy everything. Their solution to every problem? Smash it. They’re constantly raging about honor and glory, which is just a thinly veiled excuse to murder things. If you like the idea of playing a character that’s one-dimensional and as subtle as a sledgehammer, orcs are your perfect match. If you can&#039;t afford to play WoW, just paint a brick green and put some googly eyes on it—that&#039;s basically an orc.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow troll.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Trolls: The Laid-Back Psycopaths&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Trolls are the laid-back, rasta-loving lunatics who seem perpetually stoned, yet are always ready to murder you and eat your corpse, according to their [[special|unique]] culture. They have a &amp;quot;no worries&amp;quot; attitude about everything, even when being impaled by a sword. Their penchant for voodoo and eating long pig is charming in a sort of &amp;quot;we really don’t care&amp;quot; way. If you enjoy playing a character who’s chill but highly deranged, like [[sick fuck|Albert Fish]], trolls are your tribe.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow undead.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Forsaken: Zombie Angsty Teens&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Touch of the child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;5% forsaken child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Cannibalize&lt;br /&gt;
|The Forsaken are the edgy, undead rejects who are eternally angsty. Their leader, Sylvanas, is the queen of drama, and they follow her like loyal emo kids. They revel in decay and despair, making them the perfect choice for players who never outgrew their [[Hot Topic]] phase. If you like the idea of being an [[Avril Lavigne]] reject—always pissed off and dead inside and out—the Forsaken are your choice.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Tauren horde.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Tauren: The Bovine Philosophers&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Milk&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Leather&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Endurance&lt;br /&gt;
|This race is the ideal race for pseudo-intellectual [[neckbeard|neckbeards]]. Half of the Tauren userbase will have the word &amp;quot;moo&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;cow&amp;quot; in their names because they think they are clever shits and internet-funny, when in reality they need to cut off circulation to their dick and set themselves on fire. Tauren are the gentle giants who love to shout philosophical drivel about nature and balance. They’re basically cows with a conscience, who cry when they eat grass because plants also feel pain or some stupid shit like that. Their slow, deliberate way of speaking and moving is perfect for players who enjoy a leisurely pace aka mental retards. If you want to play a character that’s basically Donkey from Shrek, but a cow instead of a horse, the Tauren are for you.&lt;br /&gt;

|Blood Elves are the vain, pretty closeted homosexuals and girls of Azeroth. Obsessed with their looks and their [[drugs|magical addiction]], they’re like the Kardashians of WoW. They’ve got a tragic backstory but are too busy checking their reflection to care. Play a Blood Elf if you enjoy being the center of attention and making everything about your narcissistic ass, while everyone else rolls their eyes so hard they can see through the back of their heads.&lt;br /&gt;

|[[File:Horde goblins.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Goblins: Gnomes Meet Mad Max&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Basically, they are Gnomes, just painted green and given to the Horde, but it&#039;s the same shtick. These pint-sized green disasters are the epitome of greed and avarice. Goblins don’t just love gold, they worship it like a deity, sacrificing dignity and common sense at the altar of profit margins. Their entire society is a grotesque parody of capitalism on steroids, where the only thing more explosive than their volatile gadgets are their bullshit mumbo-jumbo Gangster wannabe personas.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Neutral Race ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because Blizzard was too lazy, they decided to add a race for both faction on the Alliance and the Horde, and made this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wow_panda.jpg|center|500px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those portly, panda-like creatures that stumbled into the World of Warcraft universe like a drunken uncle at a family reunion. Who thought it was a good idea to blend Kung Fu Panda with your epic fantasy world? Someone at Blizzard must have had a few too many drinks at the company party after watching a cartoon movie for kids?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So there you have it, the diverse (and dreadful) races of World of Warcraft. Each one is retarded in its own irritating way. Whatever flavor of crap you prefer, WoW has something to frustrate everyone. Enjoy your stay in Azeroth – you’ll need all the patience you can muster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Classes and Talents ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the World of Warcraft, where fantasy meets reality, and gamers everywhere embark on epic quests to save Azeroth, all while living in their parents’ basements. But let’s be brutally honest – not all heroes are created equal. In fact, some of these classes are as balanced as a seesaw with an elephant on one end. So let&#039;s tear apart each class with brutal honesty and a pinch of hatred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warrior.jpg|thumb|150px|A mighty [[faggot|warrior]], a projection of the [[you|player]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warrior: The Meatshield with Delusions of Grandeur&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warrior – the quintessential tank who believes that having a ton of armor and health somehow makes up for having the intelligence of a rock. Warriors charge into battle with the grace of a drunken elephant, swinging their oversized weapons while shouting incoherently. Their idea of strategy is to hit things harder and hope for the best. And let’s not forget their favorite pastime: complaining about not having enough heals, despite standing in every possible fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to scream &amp;quot;For the Horde!&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;For the Alliance!&amp;quot; while charging into battle.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re basically a glorified punching bag. Prepare for a lifetime of repair bills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arms:&#039;&#039;&#039; You use your fucking arms, spin like a ballerina and die constantly. &lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fury:&#039;&#039;&#039; Grants warriors to equip a giant dong in each hand, so they have an easier time being faggots. Remember to always use raging blowjob when you have 2 charges.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; A curious name for this, as these are the biggest AIDS on this planet. Nobody knows how to play them, so expect your group to fail every time this is the tank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow paladin.jpg|thumb|left|150px|[[sarcasm|A righteous Paladin]]. Notice how he walks in his own piss to convey superiority.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Paladin: The Self-Righteous Zealot&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Paladins are the holy knights of Azeroth, wielding both a sword and a Bible, ready to smite evil and preach about the Light. They come in three flavors: Tankadin, Healadin, and Retardin. Despite their shiny armor and holy auras, Paladins have an uncanny ability to be both invincible and utterly useless at the same time. Their primary skill? Spamming bubbles and judging everyone around them – both in and out of the game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to wear plate armor and heal yourself. Plus, bubble hearth!&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;ll spend half your time arguing about whether you&#039;re a healer or a tank. &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Spoiler:&#039;&#039; you&#039;re whatever your group needs, you walking [[tool|utility belt.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Retribution:&#039;&#039;&#039; If you choose this branch, just start over. The goal of this class is to get holy power, then spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, kill yourself, spend it, get holy power...&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; The tank of the game. Which is not saying much. Basically, whilst in a fight you get an extra five seconds of life. It&#039;s the kind of thing where you think you&#039;re getting the best of the best, but is really isn&#039;t much different. Only good for raids and tanking. Also enjoy your 1 million life points, and your zero real life points.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Absolutely useless. Can&#039;t heal. Can&#039;t do any damage. Needs to do damage to heal. The damage will suck, and your teammates will scream at you because you used an offensive move, so that you could use your defensive skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow hunter.jpg|thumb|150px|The hunter, the perpetual [[dumbass|dazed and confused]] DPS class that has no idea what to do.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Hunter: The AFK Champion&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hunters, the masters of ranged combat and pet management – or so they claim. In reality, Hunters are known for two things: pulling extra mobs and being perpetually AFK. Their pets have a mind of their own, often running off to aggro entire dungeons while the Hunter is busy texting their girlfriend. They also have a talent for misdirecting bosses onto healers, proving that the real hunt is for competent group members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can solo almost anything with your trusty pet. Also, feign death is the perfect &amp;quot;I didn&#039;t sign up for this&amp;quot; button.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Everyone assumes you’re just mashing buttons while watching Netflix. And let&#039;s be honest, you probably are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Beast Mastery:&#039;&#039;&#039; These hunters have wonderful sexual experiences with their pets, which motivates their pets to fight harder. Take this if you are a furry. Your pets can fight on their, so you don&#039;t even need to be in the game, which is a plus.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Marksmanship:&#039;&#039;&#039; Expect to do less than the other huntards if you choose this, as it absolutely blows the ass.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Survival:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOL TRAPS ARE ABSOLUTELY USELESS.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow priest.jpg|thumb|left|150px|A typical WoW priest realizing everyone knows his dark secret a.k.a kiddie fondling.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Priest: The Masochistic Medic&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Priests are the backbone of any raid group, providing healing and buffs to keep everyone alive. They come in two flavors: Holy and Shadow. Holy Priests are the altruistic healers who enjoy being yelled at for not healing fast enough, while Shadow Priests are the edgy teens who channel dark powers and constantly remind you of their &amp;quot;deep, dark pain.&amp;quot; Either way, playing a Priest means accepting that no one will appreciate you until you stop healing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re the group&#039;s lifeline. No priest, no raid. Instant ego boost.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Prepare to hear &amp;quot;heal plz&amp;quot; more times than you can count. And when things go south, it’s always your fault, faggot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Discipline:&#039;&#039;&#039; So I herd you like shielding. Now you can shield while you shield while you shield in a shield.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let me heal you child, just step into this dark basement.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Shadow:&#039;&#039;&#039; Years of raping kids has not paid off, as this is the weakest DPS class. Expect everyone to pass you in instances.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow mage.jpg|thumb|150px|Totally not a Wizard.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Mage: The Glass Cannon&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Mages are the epitome of high-risk, high-reward gameplay. They can dish out incredible damage with spells like Fireball and Frostbolt, but they have the survivability of a wet paper bag. Mages spend half their time nuking enemies from a safe distance and the other half running away screaming when anything gets too close. Their greatest contribution to any group? Free food and portals – because nothing says &amp;quot;master of the arcane&amp;quot; like being a glorified vending machine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Teleports and portals save you a fortune in travel costs. And who doesn&#039;t love setting things on fire?&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You’re about as durable as wet tissue paper. Get used to mobs wiping their ass with you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arcane:&#039;&#039;&#039; Maintain your mana. Don&#039;t move, ever. Do this and you will win the DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fire:&#039;&#039;&#039; Wait for Pyroblast to proc. Spam other abilities that don&#039;t do shit. Wait for Pyroblast.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE... AND ICE.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow shaman.jpg|thumb|left|150px|It&#039;s a known fact Shamans sweat cum.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Shaman: The Elemental Hipster&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Shamans are the spiritual guides who wield the powers of the elements – fire, water, air, and earth. They have the unique ability to drop totems that provide buffs or annoy everyone with unnecessary clutter. Shamans are often seen in the back, frantically trying to keep their totems from being destroyed while everyone else wonders what they actually do. They claim to bring balance to the group, but mostly they bring confusion and misplaced expectations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Totems, totems everywhere. Plus, you get to yell &amp;quot;It&#039;s clobberin&#039; time!&amp;quot; while dual-wielding.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Juggling totems is about as fun as herding cats. And you&#039;ll always be the &amp;quot;off-healer&amp;quot; in raids.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Enhancement:&#039;&#039;&#039; Similar to Beast Mastery hunter, except Shamans are specific and only do it with wolves. This is for retards who still want to do high DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Piss on everybody to heal them. Occasionally drops a magic dildo which floods the area with cum.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Elemental:&#039;&#039;&#039; These shamans are similar to Arcane Mages, except they can move earth with their dildos. Use lava.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow druid.jpg|thumb|150px|A druid realizing he [[cum|jizzed in his pants]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Druid: The Jack of All Trades, Master of None&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Druids are the ultimate utility class, able to shapeshift into various forms to fulfill different roles. They can tank, heal, and deal damage – all while looking like they got lost on their way to a nature documentary. However, their versatility comes at a cost: they’re mediocre at everything. Druids spend most of their time arguing about which form is best and why they’re not being appreciated for their &amp;quot;amazing flexibility.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can be a bear, a cat, a bird, and a tree—all in one day. Flexibility is your middle name.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Jack of all trades, master of none. And good luck keeping track of all your forms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Balance (BOOMKIN):&#039;&#039;&#039; YOU TURN INTO A GIANT SPACE-CHICKEN AND SHOOT FUCKING LASERS EVERYWHERE THAT DON&#039;T DO ANY DAMAGE&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Giant wooden dildo that heals people by throwing leaves at them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Feral:&#039;&#039;&#039; Either a cute kitten that requires everything to bleed or a giant motherfucking pedobear who is only useful as a meatshield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warlock.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Crazy, evil, socipaths that consider torture a hobby.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warlock: The Soul-Sucking Sociopath&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warlocks are the goth kids of Warcraft, summoning demons and casting curses while everyone else wonders if they’re secretly plotting to destroy the world. They revel in the misery of others, draining life and mana with glee. Warlocks can summon powerful pets, but they’re mostly known for dotting everything in sight and then laughing maniacally as their enemies wither away. Their main weakness? Explaining why they chose to play such an obviously evil class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Affliction:&#039;&#039;&#039; You specialize in giving AIDS and cancer to all fucking players while slowly sucking their cock.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Demonology:&#039;&#039;&#039; Same as Beast Mastery hunters, except warlocks prefer demons and necrophilia over animals.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Destruction:&#039;&#039;&#039; Set everything ablaze. Enjoy getting raped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow rogue.jpg|thumb|150px|Rogues do it from behind.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Rogue: The Backstabbing Bandit&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Rogues live in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to stab you in the back – much like your ex. These sneaky bastards are great at dealing massive damage, then vanishing before anyone can retaliate. Their playstyle revolves around stealth, deceit, and looting all the good stuff while everyone else is fighting. Rogues often remind us that trust issues aren&#039;t just for relationships.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Assassination:&#039;&#039;&#039; wanna-be-Ezio, but in reality, a shitty spec no one plays with, because why would you want to poison someone when you can sinister strike them?&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Combat:&#039;&#039;&#039; You sinister strike them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Subtlety:&#039;&#039;&#039; Subtlety rogues sneak upon people and give them surprise buttsecks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow death knight.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Notice the edgyness.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Death Knight: The Edgelord Extraordinaire&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Death Knights are the dark, brooding anti-heroes of Warcraft, resurrected to serve the Lich King and then deciding they’d rather just sulk around Azeroth. With abilities like Death Grip and Army of the Dead, they excel at making every fight as chaotic as possible. Their aesthetic screams &amp;quot;I shop exclusively at Hot Topic,&amp;quot; and their gameplay revolves around being as edgy and misunderstood as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Blood:&#039;&#039;&#039; GAY HOMOSEXUAL FAGGOT who can tank bosses. Can heal himself better than a raid-geared healer could, which of course makes them [[no|very balanced]] in PvP.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy doing less damage than the tank spec.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Unholy:&#039;&#039;&#039; As a good whore DK is, unholy DKs spread all the fucking diseases from syphilis to chlamydia to their opponents while buttfucking their ghouls. Completely useless. Does even less damage than Blood and Frost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow monk.jpg|thumb|150px|Guys, the Monk is drunk again...]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Monk: The Confused Contender&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Monks are the newest addition to the World of Warcraft class lineup, bringing martial arts and chi energy to the mix. They punch, kick, and heal their way through dungeons, all while trying to figure out why they were added to the game in the first place. Monks have a unique playstyle that involves rolling around and drinking mysterious brews, which leads many to wonder if they’re actually just drunken brawlers who stumbled into Azeroth by accident.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Brewmaster:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOLLLLLLL SO FUCKING DRUNK :PPPPPPPP THESE MOBS CANT EVEN HANDLE ME RIGHT NOW&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Mistweaver:&#039;&#039;&#039; Healing mist, so creative Blizzard. Oh, and some fucking orbs, too.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Windwalker:&#039;&#039;&#039; Typical wanna-be-JackieChan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Demon Hunter: The One-Trick Pony&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow demon hunter.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Notice the gun as most people imagine themselves acutally playing the [[DOOM]] guy, or is it just [[you]]?]]&lt;br /&gt;
Demon Hunters are the rockstars of WoW, with flashy abilities and a brooding backstory that screams &amp;quot;look at me.&amp;quot; They excel at doing one thing: dealing damage. With abilities like Eye Beam and Metamorphosis, they make sure everyone knows they’re the center of attention. However, their reliance on mobility and damage output makes them fragile and predictable. Once the novelty wears off, Demon Hunters are just edgy night elves with a superiority complex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Overall:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft classes are a testament to the game’s enduring appeal and its ability to attract both die-hard fans and relentless critics. Each class brings its own flavor of chaos, hilarity, and frustration to the game. Whether you love them or hate them, one thing’s for sure: WoW wouldn’t be the same without this motley crew of misfits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, next time you log in, take a moment to appreciate the absurdity and brilliance of the World of Warcraft classes. After all, it’s this delightful mess that keeps Azeroth spinning and the players coming back for more – even if it’s just to complain about how much they hate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Expansions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Burning Crusade (BC)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Burning crusade satire image.jpg|thumb|right|Grind, grind, grind, grind and grind, dipshits.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, The Burning Crusade—the first expansion for World of Warcraft, and arguably the game equivalent of a long, excruciating dentist appointment. Released in 2007, this expansion promised to bring thrilling new content and exciting adventures. What it delivered, however, was a cluster of frustration, recycled content, and enough player tears to fill the Great Sea. Strap in, because we&#039;re diving headfirst into this dumpster fire with all the love and hatred it deserves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: A Masterclass in Overcomplication&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, decided that the lore needed to be more convoluted than a soap opera. Enter the shattered world of Outland, where Illidan Stormrage, the original emo night elf, waits with a scowl that could rival your most disgruntled ex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember that badass anti-hero from Warcraft III? Well, prepare to see him reduced to a raid boss who gets beaten like a piñata. He&#039;s no longer the “You are not prepared!” legend, but rather the “Oh, you’re still here?” side note.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Blood Elves and Draenei:&#039;&#039;&#039; Two new races introduced to pad out the player base and offer more cringe-worthy RP possibilities. Blood Elves—because everyone wanted to play an elf with a superiority complex—and Draenei, the space goats who crash-landed into Azeroth with zero navigational skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Like a Rusty Gear&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought vanilla WoW had its grindy moments, The Burning Crusade takes it to a whole new level. Enjoy endless grinding for attunements, resist gear, and the eternal hell of daily quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Attunements:&#039;&#039;&#039; Want to raid? Be prepared to sell your soul for attunements that require you to jump through more hoops than a circus poodle. Let’s make this clear—no one, and I mean NO ONE, enjoys grinding for weeks just to step foot in a raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Reputation Grinding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who doesn’t love spending countless hours doing repetitive tasks for factions that barely remember your name? Get ready to kill the same mobs over and over again in a mind-numbing loop of despair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying Mounts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sure, they sound cool until you realize you’ll need to grind gold like a medieval peasant to afford one. The only thing more painful than getting your first flying mount is the repair bill after you crash it into the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039; Dungeons and Raids: Recycled Boredom &#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard must have really loved recycling because The Burning Crusade dungeons and raids feel like they were pulled straight out of the developer’s trash bin of ideas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Karazhan:&#039;&#039;&#039; A 10-man raid where you spend more time listening to ghostly opera performances than actually fighting bosses. The real challenge is staying awake through the endless trash mobs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep:&#039;&#039;&#039; Exciting in theory, monotonous in practice. Nothing says fun like fighting the same faceless, fish-headed murloc wannabes and robot chickens over and over again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Magtheridon’s Lair:&#039;&#039;&#039; Imagine Onyxia, but less interesting and with more cubes to click. Clicking cubes—because that&#039;s what we all signed up for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Wastelands of Despair&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outland is a visually striking yet soul-sucking expanse of zones designed to test your patience and willingness to live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Hellfire Peninsula:&#039;&#039;&#039; Red, barren, and filled with boars on steroids. It’s as if Blizzard took Durotar, painted it red, and called it a day. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Zangarmarsh:&#039;&#039;&#039; Mushrooms, mushrooms everywhere. If you love fungi and humidity, this zone is your damp dream. Otherwise, it’s just a swampy mess that’s more confusing than enchanting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Nagrand:&#039;&#039;&#039; The one saving grace, because even Blizzard couldn’t mess up floating islands and green fields. But after the 100th kill quest, even Nagrand loses its charm. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Burning Disappointment&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039; is the expansion that promised the moon and delivered a moldy cheese wheel. It’s a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and inject it with enough tedium, frustration, and sheer grinding hell to make players question their life choices. If you enjoy masochism, by all means, dive into this burning wreck. For everyone else, just remember: you were not prepared—for this level of disappointment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, here’s to &#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039;—the expansion that set the bar low and somehow managed to limbo under it. Bravo, Blizzard, bravo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Wrath Of The Lich King (WOTLK)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wrath of the lich king image.jpg|thumb|No, the server is not down, you&#039;re just lagging.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Wrath of the Lich King&#039;&#039;, the second expansion for World of Warcraft, is often hailed as one of the greatest expansions in MMO history. But let&#039;s be real – it&#039;s just another glorified excuse for Blizzard to squeeze more money out of their devoted player base. Grab your Frostmourne, kids, because we&#039;re about to hack and slash our way through the icy, overrated mess that is Northrend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Arthas, Arthas, Arthas&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, Arthas Menethil, the golden boy turned emo villain. If you thought his fall from grace in Warcraft III was melodramatic, wait until you see this expansion. The entire storyline revolves around this angsty prince who decided the best way to cope with his daddy issues was to plunge a sword into his heart and raise an undead army. Seriously, who hurt you, Arthas?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Boring Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; The quests are as repetitive as they come. &amp;quot;Go here, kill that, bring me 10 ghoul eyeballs.&amp;quot; The creativity is truly staggering.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pathetic Attempts at Drama:&#039;&#039;&#039; Every other quest tries to make you feel some sort of way about the tragic plight of Northrend. But let&#039;s be honest, the only tragedy here is the time you&#039;ll waste trying to care.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Frozen Wasteland of Tediousness&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Northrend – a continent so cold and dreary, it makes your heart freeze over. The zones are designed to be as inhospitable as possible, and not in a challenging way – just in a &amp;quot;why am I even here?&amp;quot; way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Borean Tundra vs. Howling Fjord:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard couldn&#039;t decide between two equally bland starting zones, so they gave us both. Spoiler alert: they both suck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grizzly Hills:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only redeeming quality here is the music. Otherwise, it&#039;s just another forest filled with things that want to kill you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home of the Lich King and the most anticlimactic endgame zone. It’s as if Blizzard threw every gothic trope into a blender and poured out this abomination.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: The Definition of Overhyped&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wrath of the Lich King is known for its dungeons and raids. But let’s call them what they really are: overly long, unimaginative time sinks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Naxxramas:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Let&#039;s recycle old content and call it nostalgia!&amp;quot; Brilliant idea, Blizzard. It&#039;s not like we’ve been here before or anything.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Ulduar:&#039;&#039;&#039; Okay, Ulduar was actually decent, but do we really need a raid that feels longer than a Tolkien novel?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trial of the Crusader:&#039;&#039;&#039; A single room raid. Need I say more?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown Citadel:&#039;&#039;&#039; The grand finale! Except the only thing grand about it is the amount of bugs and glitches you&#039;ll encounter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;PvP: Frostbitten Failures&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP in Wrath is like trying to have a snowball fight with icicles – painful and pointless. Wintergrasp, the so-called crown jewel of world PvP, is a laggy, chaotic mess where strategy goes to die.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Arena Seasons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when balance was a thing? Neither do we.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Battlegrounds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy the same old battlegrounds with a fresh coat of frost. Hooray for mediocrity!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Cold, Hard Truth&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Wrath of the Lich King is the expansion that brought us Northrend – a frozen hellscape filled with recycled content, tedious quests, and the whiniest villain in WoW history. If masochism is your thing, then by all means, dive into this glacier of disappointment. But don’t say we didn’t warn you – the only thing colder than the Lich King&#039;s heart is the feeling you’ll get when you realize how much time you’ve wasted. Enjoy the frostbite!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Cataclysm (Cata)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Cataclysm box art.png|thumb|Oh no, it&#039;s Deathwing!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;Cataclysm&#039;&#039;, the third expansion for World of Warcraft, where Blizzard Entertainment decided it was a great idea to take a sledgehammer to Azeroth and call it &amp;quot;content.&amp;quot; Released in 2010, this expansion is the gaming equivalent of inviting a bull into a china shop and then blaming the china for being too fragile. Buckle up, because we’re diving headfirst into this catastrophe with all the love and tenderness of a rhino in a rage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Apocalypse Now (But Make It Boring)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard&#039;s big idea for Cataclysm was to bring back Deathwing, a dragon so angry he makes your high school gym teacher look like Mr. Rogers. His grand entrance involved tearing the world apart because, apparently, dragon therapy wasn’t an option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Deathwing&#039;s Return:&#039;&#039;&#039; He’s back, he’s big, and he’s… really angry about something. Who cares why? Just know that he&#039;s here to wreck your favorite zones and make leveling even more tedious.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Changes:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard thought it would be fun to uproot your favorite nostalgic zones and replace them with watery graves and fiery wastelands. Enjoy questing in the once-beautiful Barrens, now with 100% more existential dread.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Rubble&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced several new gameplay mechanics, each one more exasperating than the last. If you thought leveling was a grind before, just wait until you try to make sense of this mess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Thrilling locales like Vashj&#039;ir, where you get to experience the joy of underwater combat, because fighting in three dimensions wasn’t enough of a headache already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Revised Old Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Say goodbye to the comforting familiarity of your favorite zones. Blizzard’s renovation project involved replacing everything you loved with lava, water, and more hostile NPCs. Thanks, Deathwing!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying in Azeroth:&#039;&#039;&#039; Finally, you can fly in the old world! Oh, wait, that just means you get to see the carnage from a bird’s eye view. Neat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Classes and Races: Tweaks Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced two new races: Worgen and Goblins. Because what WoW really needed was more furries and comic relief characters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Worgen:&#039;&#039;&#039; Ever wanted to play as a werewolf? No? Too bad. Now you can experience the joy of transforming into a hairy beast every time you get mildly annoyed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Goblins:&#039;&#039;&#039; These little green bundles of greed bring explosive fun and mind-numbing quests. Their starting zone is essentially a tutorial in how to blow things up and laugh about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: More Pain, Less Gain&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard really outdid themselves with Cataclysm’s dungeons and raids, creating content so grueling you’ll wish for the sweet release of death – or at least a decent loot drop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heroic Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Cataclysm’s dungeons were harder than trying to explain quantum physics to a toddler. Enjoy wiping repeatedly because apparently, fun is for the weak.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Raids:&#039;&#039;&#039; Think you’re tough? Cataclysm’s raids will disabuse you of that notion faster than you can say “gear check.” Welcome to the world of endless grinding and frustration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Chorus of Groans&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to Cataclysm was a symphony of sighs and groans, mixed with the occasional rage-quit. Blizzard’s grand experiment in world-breaking was met with all the enthusiasm of a root canal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Veteran Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Long-time players watched in horror as their beloved game was dismantled and rebuilt into something unrecognizable. Their feedback ranged from “What were they thinking?” to “Please, make it stop.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Newcomers were left bewildered, wondering if the pre-Cataclysm Azeroth was some kind of myth. Spoiler: It was real, and it was better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: The Cataclysmic Aftermath&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm will go down in history as the expansion that tried too hard and fell flat on its face. It’s a testament to what happens when developers decide to fix what wasn’t broken and break everything else in the process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re in the mood for a nostalgic trip through Azeroth’s most misguided renovation project, by all means, dive into Cataclysm. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you. Enjoy the carnage, and remember: sometimes, the best change is no change at all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Mists Of Pandaria (MOP)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Mists of pandaria box art.jpg|thumb|God help us all!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the World of Warcraft expansion that brought us pandas, beer, and an avalanche of disappointment. This 2012 masterpiece from Blizzard Entertainment was the epitome of &amp;quot;What were they thinking?&amp;quot; Let&#039;s dive into this hilarious, hate-filled critique of the expansion that turned Azeroth into a cuddly, bamboo-filled nightmare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandas: A Joke Gone Too Far&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Blizzard announced pandas as a playable race, it felt like the developers had thrown in the towel and decided to let their kids take over. Seriously, pandas? The epitome of laziness and the ultimate pacifists? Because nothing screams &amp;quot;epic fantasy&amp;quot; like a bunch of chubby bears who&#039;d rather munch on bamboo than engage in mortal combat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Kung Fu Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; is what happens when you binge-watch too many kung fu movies and decide to turn your MMORPG into a parody. The entire narrative revolves around the Pandaren, their idyllic, untouched continent, and the age-old battle between beer bellies and actual threats. It&#039;s like someone watched &#039;&#039;Kung Fu Panda&#039;&#039; and thought, &amp;quot;Yeah, let&#039;s make that our next billion-dollar expansion.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Bamboo Forest&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought previous expansions were grindy, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; said, &amp;quot;Hold my beer!&amp;quot; From endless dailies to rep grinds that made you question your life choices, this expansion was a masterclass in how to stretch minimal content over a maximum timeframe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Dailies Galore:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when you could log in and have fun? &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; introduced a plethora of daily quests that felt more like chores than adventures. Congratulations, you’ve been promoted to Azeroth’s errand boy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Rep Grinds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing says &amp;quot;engaging gameplay&amp;quot; like grinding reputation for factions that offer slightly better gear and cosmetic mounts. Who needs fun when you have repetitive tasks?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Zones: A Tourist Trap&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The zones in Pandaria are beautiful, vibrant, and about as deep as a kiddie pool. Sure, they&#039;re pretty to look at, but once you scratch the surface, you realize there’s about as much substance as a Hollywood blockbuster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Jade Forest:&#039;&#039;&#039; A zone so lush and green, you might forget you’re supposed to be slaying monsters and not on a nature hike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Valley of the Four Winds:&#039;&#039;&#039; The place where you can really get in touch with your inner farmer. Plowing fields and growing crops – because that’s what we signed up for in an MMORPG.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Kun-Lai Summit:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home to the great and wise Pandaren monks, who will bore you to death with their endless platitudes and fetch quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: Filler Content&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The raids and dungeons in &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; were a mixed bag of mediocrity. Some were decent, while others felt like recycled content thrown in to keep us busy while Blizzard figured out their next move.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mogu&#039;shan Vaults:&#039;&#039;&#039; A raid so forgettable, even the bosses seemed to lack enthusiasm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heart of Fear:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing strikes terror into the hearts of players like a raid that feels like a chore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Terrace of Endless Spring:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only thing endless here is the feeling of tedium as you slog through another uninspired raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Monk Class: Balance? What&#039;s That?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monks, the new class introduced in this expansion, were a lesson in imbalance. One minute you&#039;re a god among men, the next you&#039;re wondering if you accidentally unequipped all your gear. The class design swung wildly from overpowered to useless, leaving players dizzy and frustrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Pandaren Parody&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; will go down in history as the expansion that took itself way too seriously while simultaneously being a joke. It’s a love letter to all things ridiculous, a blend of gorgeous visuals and mind-numbing gameplay, and a testament to Blizzard&#039;s willingness to jump the shark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So here’s to you, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the expansion that gave us pandas, plowing fields, and a reason to seriously consider taking up a new hobby. If nothing else, you made us appreciate the good old days of WoW, when we were fighting actual threats and not getting lost in the bamboo forest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the most laughable chapter in &#039;&#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;&#039; history!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Warlords Of Draenor (WOD)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wod_box_art.jpg|thumb|Rage incarnate.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor (WoD)&#039;&#039;&#039;, the expansion that Blizzard Entertainment generously bestowed upon the World of Warcraft community in 2014. In their infinite wisdom, Blizzard decided that players didn’t need new content as much as they needed an expansion that felt like a hastily cobbled together fever dream. Strap in, dear reader, as we dive headfirst into this dumpster fire of an expansion, brimming with frustration, disappointment, and the faint scent of creative bankruptcy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Time Travel Nonsense&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remember when &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; had coherent storytelling? WoD laughs in the face of logic and consistency, tossing players into an alternate timeline where everything is somehow both familiar and utterly nonsensical. It’s like a bad fan fiction that somehow got greenlit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grommash Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Our favorite orc is back, but in an alternate universe where he’s even more insufferable. Because why not double down on a character nobody really wanted to see again?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrosh Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Yes, Garrosh is here too, because we all needed more of his daddy issues and genocidal tendencies. Thanks, Blizzard, for giving us more of what we never asked for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Alternate Draenor:&#039;&#039;&#039; A world that’s essentially Outland, but prettier and more pointless. It’s like paying for a remastered version of a game you never liked in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Garrisons Galore&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought you were signing up for epic battles and immersive quests, think again. WoD offers you the joy of micromanaging your very own garrison, because who wouldn’t want to play World of Warcraft: SimCity Edition?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrisons:&#039;&#039;&#039; A brilliant idea, executed with the finesse of a toddler with finger paint. You get to spend hours gathering resources, sending followers on missions, and watching paint dry. Thrilling!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Follower Missions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who needs actual gameplay when you can send NPCs to do everything for you? It’s like being the middle manager of Azeroth, minus the paycheck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Content Drought:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard promised a river of content, but all we got was a trickle. By the time you’re done with your garrison chores, you’ll realize there’s nothing else to do. It’s like they ran out of ideas and just hoped nobody would notice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: The Saving Grace&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even in this sea of mediocrity, there are a few islands of decency. The raids and dungeons in WoD are surprisingly well-designed, which only highlights how much better the expansion could have been if Blizzard had actually tried.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Highmaul:&#039;&#039;&#039; A decent raid that almost makes you forget the garbage fire outside. Almost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Blackrock Foundry:&#039;&#039;&#039; Another solid raid, proving that the dungeon design team is the only one that didn’t take an extended coffee break during development.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Lipstick on a Pig&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoD looks and sounds beautiful, which is the cruelest irony of all. It’s like putting a fresh coat of paint on a sinking ship. Sure, it’s pretty, but you’re still going down with the wreck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gorgeous environments and character models that make you wish there was more to do in this pretty, empty world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic scores that make you feel like you’re about to embark on a grand adventure, only to realize you’re just going back to your garrison to collect more herbs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Rage and Despair&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The player base’s reaction to WoD can best be described as a collective scream into the void. Forums were ablaze with complaints, and subscriber numbers plummeted faster than Blizzard’s standards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; WoD managed to drive away millions of players, proving that not even brand loyalty can save a bad expansion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Forums:&#039;&#039;&#039; A hotbed of rage, where every thread is a monument to Blizzard’s monumental screw-up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Obvious Conclusion: An Expansion Best Forgotten&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Warlords of Draenor is a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and turn it into a chore simulator. It’s a cautionary tale for game developers everywhere: don’t take your player base for granted, or you might just end up with a steaming pile of disappointment like WoD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re a masochist who enjoys being let down, by all means, dive into &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039;. For everyone else, steer clear and hope Blizzard learned their lesson.&lt;br /&gt;

===Legion [LEG]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Legion box art.jpg|thumb|right|Welcome to Legion. Don&#039;t forget to do your daily quests, noob.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Legion&#039;&#039;&#039;, the World of Warcraft expansion that promised to be the savior of Azeroth but ended up being the equivalent of inviting your in-laws for a weekend and them never leaving. Released in 2016, Legion is Blizzard’s attempt to milk the nostalgia of the Burning Crusade while introducing mechanics that make you want to smash your keyboard into a thousand pieces. Let&#039;s dive into this trainwreck, shall we?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Rehashing the Rehashed&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, the storyline! What a masterpiece of recycled plots and half-baked ideas. Legion brings back our old pal, the Burning Legion, because apparently, Blizzard ran out of new enemies and decided that the third time&#039;s the charm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan&#039;s Redemption:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who knew the angsty, blind anti-hero with a god complex needed redemption? Blizzard, that’s who. Illidan’s return is like finding out your ex is back in town and just as insufferable as ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Artifact Weapons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who needs originality when you can just give everyone a shiny weapon with the same backstory: &amp;quot;This weapon is super important, just trust us.&amp;quot; Oh, and don’t forget to grind endlessly to make it marginally better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Class Halls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The lazy man&#039;s Garrisons, where you can pretend to be important while sending minions on missions because actually playing the game is too mainstream.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: A Grind by Any Other Name&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion’s gameplay loop is like a hamster wheel designed by someone who hates hamsters. It&#039;s an endless cycle of grinding that leaves you wondering why you didn’t just take up knitting instead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; A fantastic way to disguise daily quests by making you travel longer distances for the same mundane tasks. Blizzard’s way of saying, “We know you love busywork.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mythic+ Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Perfect for those who enjoy the sensation of banging their head against a brick wall. Higher keys don’t mean more fun, just more chances for your group to screw up spectacularly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Legendaries:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[Jesus|RNG-esus]] has blessed us with a system where you either get an item that makes you a god or one that’s about as useful as a chocolate teapot. Praise be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Credit where it’s due, the visuals and sound in Legion are top-notch. It’s just a shame they’re wasted on content that makes you want to gouge your eyes out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Beautifully designed and visually stunning, the zones of Legion are the perfect backdrop for your suffering. Enjoy the sights as you contemplate your life choices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic and immersive, the soundtrack is a symphony of sorrow and regret, perfectly capturing the essence of your Legion experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Love to Hate It&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community&#039;s reaction to Legion has been a rollercoaster of emotions, mostly ranging from blind rage to begrudging acceptance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Haters:&#039;&#039;&#039; These folks believe Blizzard should’ve let the Burning Legion stay dead. Their forums posts are masterpieces of vitriol, each more scathing than the last.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Fanboys:&#039;&#039;&#039; Die-hard fans who defend Legion with the fervor of a zealot, claiming that “at least it’s better than Warlords of Draenor.” High praise indeed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;In The End: A Love-Hate Relationship&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion is the expansion that everyone loves to hate. It’s a mishmash of good ideas executed poorly, wrapped in a shiny package of nostalgia. It’s like Blizzard took a look at their greatest hits, remixed them, and then dropped the mic with a smug grin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re into endless grinding, recycled villains, and RNG loot that makes you question your sanity, then Legion is the expansion for you. Dive in, and enjoy the exquisite pain that only a Blizzard game can deliver. Cheers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Battle For Azeroth [BFA]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Battle for azeroth.jpg|thumb|Welcome to BFA. Your full time job.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Battle For Azeroth&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Battle for Azeroth (BFA), the expansion where Blizzard Entertainment decided to take everything we loved about World of Warcraft and throw it into a blender, hit puree, and serve it to us with a smile. Released in 2018, BFA promised epic faction warfare but delivered a steaming pile of mediocrity wrapped in grind and frustration. So, grab your popcorn and brace yourself for a brutally honest, hilariously scathing telling of one of the most hated expansions in WoW history.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: The Soap Opera Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, thought we needed more faction drama. The result? A storyline that makes daytime soap operas look like Shakespearean masterpieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Burning of Teldrassil:&#039;&#039;&#039; Nothing says &amp;quot;fun&amp;quot; like watching a beloved world tree go up in flames. Sylvanas goes full pyromaniac, and we’re supposed to feel… what? Empathy? Rage? Mostly, we just felt the urge to log out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Siege of Lordaeron:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sylvanas, now a discount Saturday morning cartoon villain, decides to play the “let’s gas everyone” card. It&#039;s like watching Wile E. Coyote with a more twisted sense of humor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Faction Pride:&#039;&#039;&#039; The so-called faction pride storyline was as forced as a toddler’s apology. Alliance vs. Horde? More like Player vs. Will to Live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: The Grind of a Lifetime&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039; was bad with its garrison chores, Battle for Azeroth takes grinding to a new level of hell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Azerite Armor:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let’s talk about the system that everyone loves to hate. Unlocking traits on Azerite gear was about as fun as a dental visit. Oh, joy, more grinding for RNG rewards!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Island Expeditions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Procedurally generated boredom at its finest. Collect Azerite! Fight NPCs! Repeat ad nauseam. They were supposed to be exciting, but were about as thrilling as watching paint dry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Warfronts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s answer to “What if we made PvE even more mind-numbing?” Warfronts were like playing a game of Risk, but with all the strategic depth of tic-tac-toe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd Syndrome&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To give credit where it’s due, the art team at Blizzard deserves a medal for polishing this turd. The zones are beautiful, the music is epic, and the cinematics are top-notch. But you know what they say, you can’t polish a turd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Stunning landscapes, rich details, and breathtaking visuals that make you wonder why the gameplay couldn’t match the graphics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sweeping scores that make you feel like you’re on an epic quest… until you remember you’re grinding Azerite in a repetitive, soul-crushing loop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Dumpster Fire&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to BFA can be summed up in one word: dumpster fire. Forums were ablaze with outrage, social media was a battleground of discontent, and even the most loyal fans found themselves questioning Blizzard’s sanity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; Players unsubscribed faster than rats fleeing a sinking ship. Blizzard’s answer? More grinding, because that’ll fix it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Feedback:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s response to feedback was like watching a deaf mime perform: utterly useless and slightly painful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Reality: An Epic Fail&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039; will go down in history as a masterclass in how not to design a game expansion. From the disastrous storyline to the mind-numbing grind, BFA managed to disappoint on every conceivable level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re looking for an expansion that promises epic warfare but delivers endless frustration, BFA is your ticket to misery. Here’s to hoping the next expansion is better – it can’t possibly be worse, right? Right!?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the unintentional comedy and the epic anti-climax that is &#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039;. May it rest in pieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Guilds ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Warcraft Mutant Cosplay.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Your typical &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; player. Note the mutated jawline and [[cosplay]] dress.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like every MMORPG, in order to see the vast majority of the game, players will need to join a guild. The purpose of a guild is to enable the guild master and his best friends to get run through the high level dungeons so they can gear up their characters, so they can go into the next dungeon and get the next set of gear for themselves. It is the responsibility of the other guild members to somehow get their own gear so they can help keep their online masters clothed in the most fashionable of equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Guilds tend to be a great source of drama, especially when epic loots are involved. Due to this, guilds seem to form up and dissolve every second.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, guilds go batshit insane clearing bosses, finishing content faster than Blizzard can hammer out. Butthurt about having to produce content while basement dwellers fork out $15 a month, Blizzard, being the Jews that they are, decided it was more cost effective and lulz inducing to drop the Banhammer on such guilds ([http://web.archive.org/web/1/http://www.wow.com/2010/02/04/ensidia-temporarily-banned-for-exploits/ 2010]) than create more content. Naturally, much drama ensued on the forums and many members threatened to stop their $15 a month subscription if their rightful loot was given back and ban&#039;s were lifted. Blizzard&#039;s response was the Banhammer to many other instigators of drama, solving many server capacity problems. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard is also strongly opposed to debugging software, and when glitches and exploits are reported they will drop the Banhammer rather than fix anything or admit their mistake. Whenever a Guild gets a &amp;quot;World First Kill&amp;quot;, they will be swiftly banned for awareness of numerous exploits. This is how the game is beta tested. This will happen repeatedly until the next 10 patches come out and no one can remember anything about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on RP (Roleplaying) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You might encounter more [[Shit nobody cares about|strict laws]] over guild names and their contents on roleplaying realms such as [[Argent Dawn (EU)]], where your guild name is forced to be IC ([[Serious Business|In character]]), otherwise the [[Nazis|Game Masters]] would not hesistate to punish you if [[Homosexuals|some player(s)]] report you. However, you might also notice some exceptional guilds on this merciless realm which shine like bright sun over all the darkness. A good example would be [[Argent_Dawn_(EU)#DEFNDERS_OF_HEV_RP|DEFNDERS OF HEV RP]]. These brave warriors are led by General Shikoradoro and his comrades; Röman, Philippson, [[Basement-dweller|Mythrios]] and countless number of other &#039;&#039;Doro&#039;&#039; members. They are type of guys that you will fucking hate and love at same time. They speak their own language called &amp;quot;Elwynnian&amp;quot; which is believed to be a dialect of Mongolian, but it&#039;s still quite different and unique. They mainly operate in wild Elwynn Forest, particularly in Stormwind City and Goldshire. Quite interdasting bunch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another interdasting example from the same realm would be The Stormguard. The Stormguard is a military roleplaying guild that basically does nothing but to walk around stormwind with big ass armor on their boosted characters. Led by a female character that has serious sexual issues and believes she&#039;s a man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvP (Player versus Player) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP guilds are generally regarded as badass and cool, but extraordinary types are present.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dara Mactire&#039;&#039;&#039;, or however the fuck it&#039;s spelled is a way too serious PvP guild located on the US realm Darkspear. I think, well they are everywhere now even on the EU. They are a bunch of nerds that think it&#039;s cool to add in way too serious dubstep intros with serious editing skills that form the word: Dara Mactire. Funnily, it was nothing until Swifty joined it and made it famous because of his fanboys wanting to be in the same guild as their hero. Yet, nobody even know who their fucking guild leader is as hes an ungreatful twat getting his guild famous without even making any kind of video to thank Swifty for promoting him from a loser to a even greater loser.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;A Bunch of Gankers&#039;&#039;&#039;, formerly called The Holy Half deads, is a bunch of people that never knew how to PvP yet wanting to believe they could, gathered in one single guild. So therefore it&#039;s an army of noobs that work like a zerg unit. Overwhelming their enemies by pure numbers. Their guild leader, whose name is Fail. Has been kicked out of several servers before, as they now are somewhere only higher powers knows. They will probably keep on changing realm as they get asskicked by every single pvp orientated guilds on each server.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvE (Player versus Environment) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This type of guilds are probably most common type of guilds you can find in any fucking realm. They are usually underestimated by PvPers and viewed as [[truth|pussies, losers, nerds and such]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Ensidia&#039;&#039;&#039;, or something, they change name the same often as normal people change their underwear. Is a guild filled of PvE noobs that are way too bad to even be serious and competitive PvPers so they try to look skilled and hardcore by focusing nobody else links to skill: PvElol. Their guild leader, Kungen, meaning king in Swedish has never ever even killed a player from the opposing faction. Not that he would be able too if he saw one, as mentioned, thats why he choose PvE. Because it&#039;s not enough to kill million fucking NPCs to reach the maximum level. They want to torment themselves by questing and doing worthless raids even more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Official WoW Forums ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with most good [[MMORPG]]s, &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; has its own public forums. Subscribers can discuss tactics, roleplay, offer up item trades and sales, and of course, bitch and moan about how the game sucks and everyone should be playing &#039;&#039;[[Warhammer]]&#039;&#039; instead. (Which they SHOULD be.) Chuck Norris jokes, horrifying roleplay, &amp;quot;hug a class&amp;quot; posts, trolling posts, worthless bug reports, really STUPID suggestions for future patches... All that and a bag of chips is what you&#039;ll find within these hallowed walls.&lt;br /&gt;

|We are aware of the concerns regarding situations where players are unable to zone into an instance due to an instance limit being hit, which results in a message stating that additional instances cannot be launched. This limit was implemented as a short-term solution to preserve the gameplay for players who are already in an instance and to prevent numerous issues that can happen when too many instances are active at the same time, but we are currently working on better solutions to ensure that players can get into instances when they want to.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some time after the release of the second expansion pack (see above), a massive &amp;quot;bug&amp;quot; was discovered in &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; wherein people could no longer gain their epic lewts. When a player tries to enter a dungeon portal, a large message will flash on their screen stating &amp;quot;Additional instances cannot be launched, please try again later&amp;quot;. Most people took great offense to this as they figured since they were giving Blizzard their money, they should be entitled to do what they want when they want how they want. The truth of the matter is that Blizzard&#039;s hardware just can&#039;t keep up with all the people &amp;quot;raiding&amp;quot; at the same time. Naturally, people just don&#039;t want to believe this due to the fact that Blizzard takes in at least $165,000,000 USD a month in revenue. ($15.00/month x 11 million people.) What people don&#039;t seem to realize is that Blizzard also wants people to GO OUTSIDE AND GET SOME FRESH AIR YOU FUCKING LOSERS.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== [[Shit|Blizzcon]], Also Where Nobody Gets Laid ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally WoW players will leave their homes for what the blue names call &amp;quot;Blizzcon&amp;quot;, and what WoW players call &amp;quot;5\/\/337 d00d&amp;quot;. Here, a large number of &amp;quot;WoW patients&amp;quot; can be seen. Their complications are diverse - ranging from mild conditions such as Carpal Tunnel and [[Leetspeak]], to a severe case of [[ugly]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Sometimes&#039;&#039; attractive people can be seen at a Blizzcon claiming to be WoW faggots. These are not really WoW faggots; they are models paid by Blizzard to appear at these pathetic vomit-inducing functions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzcon features a wide variety of activities;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Class Q+A: a forum for people who play hunters to make death threats to Metzen whenever playing their class approaches any kind of difficulty, and for ret paladins to complain that every class but them is OP because they died twice in a WSG last year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Lore Q+A: exactly as retarded as it sounds; a bunch of chinless, manboob-sporting retards screeching at Mezten because &amp;lt;strike&amp;gt;Thrall&#039;s&amp;lt;/strike&amp;gt; Jaina&#039;s left testicle is saggier in-game than it&#039;s described as being in the official novels.&lt;br /&gt;
* Dance Competition: an assortment of spastic, bony individuals who either do an extremely easy dance from the game or fail horribly at a more difficult one. On occasion a morbidly obese person will attempt one of the more athletic dances. The result is rather like watching a plane crash.&lt;br /&gt;
* Costume Contest: these deeply unattractive people are paraded in front of the crowd; the usual assortment being obese men in their twenties wearing paladin gear clearly made from ceral boxes; ugly girls who clearly worked very hard on their costumes but get no applause because they&#039;re not physically attractive, and sluts with shitty costumes who get a standing ovation because you can see their nipples, causing most of the crowd to go into a sort of feeding-frenzy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only reason to go to this convention is to seal the deal on finally quitting WoW, realizing that these are the horrible people you have been playing with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Addiction ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Divorce money.jpg|thumb|What you are doing when you buy WoW and these expansions]]&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|MMORPG Freak Out}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sufferers of the WoW addiction commonly refer to themselves as &amp;quot;WoWers&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;[[gamers|GamerZ]]&amp;quot;, or in the most severe cases as &amp;quot;Alliance&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Horde&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW addiction goes through several phases, phases of chemical drug addictions. This should comes as no surprise, as the Blizzard employees are reportedly paid in [[crack]]. WoW takes several steps beyond mundane addictions, with increasingly unstable behavior. If you have a friend or colleague whom you suspect of being a WoW addict, it is important to carefully gauge their level of addiction before taking any other action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Check their room for a &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot; box, subscription card, or wrist brace. Often early signs such as this can make all the difference, since while it&#039;s unlikely they will be cured, you can take action to prevent friends and loved ones from being infected.&lt;br /&gt;
* If you happen to walk in on a WoWer during on of their sessions, (as is most likely the case since that’s about all they ever do), DO NOT and I repeat &#039;&#039;&#039;DO NOT&#039;&#039;&#039;, interrupt the game. He may try to gank you with his replica sword he got at the Renfaire.&lt;br /&gt;
* It&#039;s entirely possible that you may catch a WoWer during an intense masturbation session (typically mid-cyber in the tram). You have been warned.&lt;br /&gt;
* From bank statements, see if they&#039;re buying from Chinese gold farmers. If you find this to be the case, you can be sure their addiction has taken precedence over any other financial considerations, and should immediately remove any items of value from anywhere in the area. Don&#039;t worry, they&#039;ll be too busy grinding to stop you.&lt;br /&gt;
* Severe addicts will commonly be in the habit of shitting in socks so as not to leave one&#039;s seat and thus get ganked by some level 23 loser. These hopeless cases are referred to as &amp;quot;poopsockers&amp;quot;, and should be &#039;&#039;&#039;terminated with extreme prejudice.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are but four cures for WoW addiction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Their self extermination. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Assisted extermination by a merciful soul. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Having a shred of willpower, and selling your account for many real dollars to some more-addicted sucker. Then you can buy delicious cake.&lt;br /&gt;
* Make them play &#039;&#039;[[Darkfall]]&#039;&#039; for a week. They&#039;ll be sure to never play MMORPGs ever again!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Players spend countless hours over this game. It will be hard to break them of their addiction, but in rare cases, if they kill themselves like [[Shawn Woolley]] did with EQ, you can Lysol their PC down and sell it. Sometimes some [[fags]] kill themselves just because they get so attached to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*There is however a risk with breaking a WoW players addiction by force. Certain under 18 players are prone to extreme meltdowns on the scale of Chernobyl. Scientists point to this phenomenon triggering when said players parents deny access to &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;. It is highly recommended that anyone living within the vicinity of said players immediately evacuate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Slavery ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:1271802961179.jpg|thumb|right|fuck dose whiteys ben racist1111]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Gold farmers warcraft.jpg|thumb|Farming is srs bzns for [[Azns]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Modern [[slaves|slavery]] is known as &amp;quot;Gold Farming&amp;quot; and is intended to keep the Yellow menace down. When the [[United States]] banned slavery, it was a very sad time for slave owners. Later, the black person started to demand reparations, so something &#039;&#039;simply had to be done.&#039;&#039; [[The Man]] decided that slavery had to be moved offshore, to ensure continued economic prosperity for [[Microsoft]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Farming has been around since before the Internet, but nobody could ever figure out how to grow money until &#039;&#039;[[Ultima_online|Ultima Online]]&#039;&#039; was invented. It isn&#039;t known who made the initial breakthrough, but it&#039;s thought that Alan Greenspan&#039;s lackeys were primarily responsible, since only they could have conceived of such a brilliantly sick and perverse means of enriching themselves. However, the advent of the practice was probably inevitable, since despite their addiction, WoWers often find themselves unable to play 24 hours a day and must find another way to continue while they sleep, eat, or go to the bathroom. So, for $0.50 per hour, a |barely-educated commie living in a sweaty room will play WoW for them. Needless to say, the commie himself earns roughly [[wat|$0.05 per week.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it&#039;s difficult for players to distinguish the gold-field workers from monkeys or robots. They often repeat the same mistakes and speak gibberish (like monkeys!) Work is being done to translate some of their [[moonspeak]]. Know your Chinaman by these phrases: &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;ni hao&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;[Krol Blade] ok??&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;water 1g?&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;is 4 guildie&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;deal giev ok??10g&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;tusoNgaMe $5 4 2thousand free!&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those that speak English become the &amp;quot;boss boss&amp;quot; and take all the money, while the slaves do all the work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Trolling Techniques ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Wikipedousersmall.png|thumb|Showing those fucking paladins how it&#039;s done.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These generate various effects - some bring lulz and some just [[fail]]. Experiment and find your own lulz. However, Blizzard, like most companies, disabled trade/chatroom from trial accounts, because of [[Chink]] gold farmers. A paid account is required for the best effort in [[lulz]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Set auto follow on new players; for whatever reason this really pisses people off.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join parties for dungeons as a healer and then leave about halfway through without saying anything. It works very well. Bonus points if you leave while your group is fighting the last boss of the dungeon.&lt;br /&gt;
# Lead a party into an instance and then randomly boot players from it.&lt;br /&gt;
# Start listing the name of movies with &amp;quot;Murloc&amp;quot; in the title like &#039;&#039;Indiana Murloc and The Temple of Doom&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;Debbie Does Murloc&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
# If Horde, start shit with people in Barrens chat. It&#039;s a non-PvP area filled with low level players, so they can&#039;t hurt you or retaliate. You can troll to your heart&#039;s content.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join battlegrounds at the lowest level possible, and start talking shit about how people have no fucking idea how to play the game.&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja any piece of loot. This will require a time investment, but if you steal the right piece of loot, you will ignite a shitstorm of drama that should keep you entertained for at least five minutes. You won&#039;t get banned as long you&#039;re not stupid enough to post loot rules in chat, GMs won&#039;t have anything to pin on you.&lt;br /&gt;
# Tell people what to do, and when they say you have no idea what you&#039;re on about, retaliate with &amp;quot;Your such a noob, I have five level 80&#039;s and three Death Knights, I know what I&#039;m talking about&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# When using the auction house, be sure to put up shit people need without buyout. Then pull it off the auction house before it sells - this is essentially the closest any WoW player gets to the transfer of goods between consenting individuals.&lt;br /&gt;
# Announce in trade chat that [name of player] is quitting WoW forever and is giving all their gold to the first person who whispers them!&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja a Bloody Apron as a rogue from a priest who doesn&#039;t need it but will whine to their guild to boot that rogue&lt;br /&gt;
# Link any item in trade chat, and state that the last person to link the same item will receive a large sum of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# When in dungeons as a hunter or rogue, use Misdirection or Tricks of the Trade on a healer and attack a large group of enemies.&lt;br /&gt;
# Play as a warlock and fear inside an instance, lulz and rage will ensue.&lt;br /&gt;
# Bitch loudly about how you can&#039;t spend achievement points.&lt;br /&gt;
# Spam trade chat with Anal then a spell, ability, quest, achievement etc &lt;br /&gt;
# Note that &#039;&#039;[[RuneScape]]&#039;&#039; is a much superior online game.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- # Point them to [http://wowflames.com Wowflames.com]! --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# As a priest, use Mind Control on other players when dueling on locations that have cliffs you can jump off and/or while waiting for zeppelins / boats to leave.&lt;br /&gt;
# Accuse all Worgen and Pandaren players of being [[furry|furries]]. This will always cause rage and lulz because it&#039;s [[fact|true]].&lt;br /&gt;
# As a Paladin Tank, use Divine Shield and watch the enemies kill your party members.&lt;br /&gt;
# Use the auction houses to rig the prices of basic items to the maximum amount of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# Roll need on as much loot as you can in groups.&lt;br /&gt;
# If you duel an opposing faction member in a neutral town, hit /forfeit the moment you get hit. It may not work anymore, but when it did, it caused a lot of lulz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Private Servers ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Private servers are available for poor people and unemployed losers that can&#039;t pay $15 per month for the retail version. The downside is that they are utterly glitched. It is not unusual that &#039;&amp;quot;instanced dungeons&amp;quot;&#039; (Special zones wherein most end game content can be found. They are fractioned into unique, temporary dimensions for each player, and can only be entered simultaneously by players with the help of Blizzard&#039;s &amp;quot;raid&amp;quot;- and &amp;quot;party&amp;quot; functions.) Private server providers compensate for their dysfunctional service by setting the experience point and item drop rate up to mega volume. There are two genres of private servers: &amp;quot;Funservers&amp;quot; where you instantly gain maximum level and can get the best gear from a vendor where you begin. Then there are the &amp;quot;blizzlike&amp;quot; servers which have a leveling rate that is five- or tenfolded. When you hit maximum level on a blizzlike server, you start roaming the world looking for some kind of glitch to gain treasure. After all, [[it&#039;s not a bug, it&#039;s a feature]]. Alternatively, you can [[lurk]] your private server&#039;s web forum to wait for the next official event. This consists of a private server admin summoning a boss which drops loot. If you get [[1337]] gear, you can brag to everyone in your guild, general chat and forum. Though, in the next day, the server and its data is probably gone forever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are pristine emulations of Blizzard&#039;s servers. However, they tend to vanish untraceable in the night. This is probably because they face Blizzard&#039;s judicial [[banhammer]]. [http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/05/blizzard-legal-targets-private-servers/ Blizzard targeted the fuck out of private servers. Oops.] There is also this cancerous blight known as &#039;&#039;Private&#039;&#039; Role-Playing servers. Filled with shitty admins and mind-crippled community, they are easy to troll while avoiding getting banned since their masterful devs only know how to edit posts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Je suis Nostalrius ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out of the mess of glitchy private servers out there, there is the occasional diamond in the rough. Nostalrius was that diamond.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike other private servers that were made to sidestep Blizzard&#039;s jewry, Nostalrius was meant to be a legacy server that provided a vanilla experience. Run by only thirty volunteers, they worked around the clock to maintain the server like it was an official server, and for a whole year, it was fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;What happen?&#039;&#039;&#039;: Blizzard caught wind that someone made a better service then them, and dropped the [[Lolsuit]] hard. Over a million accounts on the server were wiped, and the server was shut down. Another private server gone, so everything should be good right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, except for the fact that Nostalrius was a private legacy server, running in Vanilla WoW since new WoW has become a casualized mess. The server was created since Blizzard for whatever reason, refuses to create servers for nostalgia fags.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;youtube&amp;gt;XuOYmqSF6OQ&amp;lt;/youtube&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reaction over the shutdown was so massive, a civil war broke out in the toxic hellhole known as [http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1975197-Blizzard-shuts-down-Vanilla-Private-Server-Nostralius MMO-Champion], several Jewtubers (Including [[Jontron]] of all people) made angry rants, and another million players cancelled their future WoW subs. Great job Blizzard, that&#039;ll show those retards who just want a simple service that thirty people for free were providing.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{achtung|Playing World of Warcraft may cause insanity and an increased risk of turning into a basement-dwelling loot goblin.}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{breakingnews|Blizzard dropped the banhammer on Nostalrius. That&#039;ll surely get their seven million lost subs back!}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{spoilers|text=The grand twist in this game is that the real final boss is your own social life crumbling from neglect. Even the NPCs lead more exciting lives than you!!!}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to World of Warcraft (unironically shortened to &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot;), the digital wasteland where your dreams of heroism go to die and your patience is stretched thinner than the plot of a Michael Bay movie. Launched in 2004 by Blizzard Entertainment, WoW (as in WOW, my life went down the shitter) has managed to captivate millions of [[retards|players]] worldwide, mainly by trapping them in an [[real life|endless cycle of grinding and disappointment]]. With lore so convoluted and undecipherable, it would take eons for linguists around the world to actually understand what the actual fuck Chris Metzen snorted while &amp;quot;envisioning&amp;quot; this crap. It makes &#039;&#039;Silmarillion&#039;&#039; look like a five-minute bed time story specifically written for children with fragile x syndrome. Strap in, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the cesspool of Azeroth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Graphics: Ancient Relics ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Graphics—where mountains resemble freshly baked loaves of bread, and trees look like they&#039;re made from crumpled-up gift wrap. It&#039;s like Blizzard handed the development team a box of crayons from 2004 and said, &amp;quot;Go nuts!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The water? Oh, that&#039;s a masterpiece—who doesn&#039;t love reflective puddles that look like shiny plastic wrap stretched over Jell-O? And let&#039;s not forget the iconic NPC faces. It&#039;s like they all went to the same plastic surgeon who only knows two expressions: &amp;quot;I&#039;m slightly concerned&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;I just smelled a fart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then there’s the foliage! Nothing screams &amp;quot;immersive realism&amp;quot; like flat, paper-thin grass that clips through your boots as if it&#039;s given up on life. It&#039;s as if Azeroth is secretly sponsored by a discount origami company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The real charm, though, is in the armor design. Why does a shoulder piece for a level 20 character look like they’re carrying an entire medieval dining set on each shoulder? Practicality clearly isn’t a concern when you&#039;re walking around with shoulder pads so massive, you need FAA clearance to enter Stormwind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#039;s not overlook those classic textures. WoW&#039;s cobblestones look like someone smeared a JPEG from 1999 across the ground and called it a day. And yet, somehow, these low-res visuals still demand a gaming PC from NASA to hit 60 FPS during a raid. Truly, a marvel of modern optimization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay: Grind Until You Die ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft’s gameplay is like being handed a spoon and told to dig a hole to the center of the Earth, only to fill it back up again once you’re halfway there—or maybe it’s more like trying to empty an ocean with a leaky bucket while a crab bites your toes. In this epic fantasy realm, you’ll embark on “world-saving” quests, also known as glorified errands, like “Collect 10 bear asses.” Yes, bear asses—because apparently, in Azeroth, bears have somehow evolved to grow multiple asses, and you’re the only hero brave enough to harvest them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These “quests” are repetitive fetch missions that could easily be outsourced to any halfway competent NPC, but no, you are the chosen one—the bearer of buckets, the picker-upper of random crap, the unpaid intern of the gods. Every click of your mouse is a solemn reminder that you’re shelling out a monthly fee to perform glorified virtual chores. It’s like paying someone to let you vacuum their house.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And while you’re out there scraping bear asses and picking up literally glowing mushrooms, the so-called villains of the game are just chilling. These are the big bads who supposedly threaten the entire world, yet they’re hanging out in their dungeons like they’re at a company retreat. Surrounded by armies of overly enthusiastic minions who are just… standing there, waiting for you to arrive. Honestly, you could probably knock on their front door, and they’d open it like, “Oh good, you’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for someone to kill us for years.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But hey, it’s not all bad. At least you get to enjoy the satisfaction of grinding for hours to earn a shiny new sword that looks exactly like your last sword, except now it glows. Progress, baby. Welcome to World of Warcraft: where the real hero isn’t you—it’s your ability to endure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Leveling:&#039;&#039;&#039; Experience the joy of killing the same boar 10,000 times to gain a single level. It&#039;s like Groundhog Day, but without the comedic relief.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Raiding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gather a group of socially awkward strangers to take down a boss that drops gear you don’t need. If the game mechanics don&#039;t kill you, your teammates&#039; incompetence will.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;PvP:&#039;&#039;&#039; Dive into the world of PvP where balance is a myth and every rogue is a stealthy demon sent straight from hell to ruin your day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Storyline: A Soap Opera on Steroids ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of WoW is a convoluted mess that makes Days of Our Lives look like a masterpiece of coherent storytelling. Every expansion brings more plot twists and lore retcons than you can shake a stick at.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Factions:&#039;&#039;&#039; The eternal struggle between the Horde and the Alliance is like watching two toddlers fight over a toy – entertaining for a moment, but ultimately pointless and exhausting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Villains:&#039;&#039;&#039; From the Lich King to Sylvanas Windrunner, every villain is a misunderstood anti-hero with daddy issues. It&#039;s like Blizzard hired a team of therapists to write the lore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Community: A Hive of Scum and Villainy ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The WoW community is a mixed bag of elitists, trolls, and those poor souls who genuinely enjoy the game. The general chat is a cesspool of spam, political arguments, and unsolicited advice on how to play your class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Elitists:&#039;&#039;&#039; These players think they are gods among mortals, looking down upon anyone who dares to enjoy the game casually.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trolls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The bane of any online community, trolls in WoW are a special breed. They thrive on chaos and your tears, and they won’t stop until they’ve made you regret logging in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Normal People:&#039;&#039;&#039; Normal people were just trying to enjoy the game, but eventually saw through the facade of pure shite and ultimately left the game a few expansions ago.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Updates: Or Lack Thereof ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard’s approach to updates can be summed up as “better late than never.” Each patch promises to fix what’s broken, but usually just introduces new ways to break the game. The developers&#039; motto seems to be, “If it ain&#039;t broke, we’ll fix that.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Microtransactions: Pay to Play, and Pay Some More ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Micro transactions wow.jpg|left|thumb|Buy, buy and buy some moar!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW has embraced microtransactions with the fervor of a televangelist asking for donations. Mounts, pets, character boosts – all available for the low, low price of your dignity. It’s like paying extra for the privilege of being disappointed faster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Main Idea: A Beautiful Disaster ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft is the ultimate exercise in masochism. It’s a beautifully designed trap that lures you in with promises of adventure and camaraderie, only to beat you down with endless grind and toxic community interactions. If you’re looking for a game that will suck away your time, money, and soul, then WoW is the perfect choice. Enjoy the ride to nowhere, because in the end, the real boss fight is against your own sense of self-worth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Starting zones.jpg|center|500px|Typical starting zones.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Races ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome, brave souls, to the sardonic safari of World of Warcraft’s races, where fantasy clichés meet the most ridiculous stereotypes the gaming world has to offer. Hold onto your keyboards as we dive into the wonderful, woeful world of Azeroth’s inhabitants. It’s time to see who really stands out… or in most cases, who stands way too far out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Alliance ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The so-called &amp;quot;noble&amp;quot; faction of World of Warcraft, where everyone is apparently too busy polishing their armor and patting themselves on the back to notice how insufferably pretentious they are. Gather &#039;round, dear reader, as we embark on a tour of this faction, which, quite frankly, could use a dose of humility and a reality check.&lt;br /&gt;

|The Humans. The race that defines &amp;quot;average&amp;quot; with all the enthusiasm of a damp sponge. They&#039;re the most generic fantasy fodder you can imagine: just your everyday medieval peasants with a king complex. Want to know what a human in WoW is like? Picture that guy in the office who thinks he&#039;s the main character in a dramatic novel. &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow dwarfs.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Dwarves: The Short Stack Stereotypes&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|•&amp;amp;nbsp;100% increased nose&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;50% increased backstab critical hit &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;Treasure finding&lt;br /&gt;
|Dwarves are basically hobbits with a drinking problem and a miner’s helmet. Imagine a group of guys who think &amp;quot;tall&amp;quot; is a cardinal sin and that “work” should be synonymous with “beer.” They’re short, they’re stout, and they’ve got a chip on their shoulder the size of their ego. Great at mining, terrible at everything else, especially personal hygiene. In most high-fantasy works, these lilliputian, anthropomorphic, hairy Muppets are often compared to real-life [[Jews]] due to their obsession with treasure, their extreme xenophobia, and their consistent display of a God complex.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow gnomes.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Gnomes: The Tiny Tech Terrorists&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Gnomes are the tiny tech enthusiasts of Azeroth, always tinkering with gadgets and gizmos. Their advanced intellect is overshadowed only by their insufferable personalities. They&#039;re like that annoying kid in class who always had to be right, corrected the teacher, and/or constantly requested more homework. Playing a gnome means embracing your inner know-it-all and annoying everyone in sight with your [[sarcasm|superior intellect]].&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Night elf wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Night Elves: The Tree-Hugging Hippies&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Night Elves, the ultimate eco-warriors who spend their days frolicking in forests and talking to animals while embracing their inner homosexuality. Their obsession with nature is so extreme, you half expect them to chain themselves to a tree in protest of logging. With their &amp;quot;shadowmeld&amp;quot; ability, they can disappear into the shadows – perfect for avoiding responsibility and accountability, like the dirty hippies they are.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Space goats wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Draenei: The Holier-Than-Thou Space Goats&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|The Draenei are the self-righteous space goats who crash-landed on Azeroth and decided to grace everyone with their moral superiority. With their glowing eyes and incessant preaching about the Light, they’re basically the Jehovah’s Witnesses of WoW. If you enjoy lecturing others on everything while virtue signaling and ignoring your own flaws, then the Draenei are your kindred spirits.&lt;br /&gt;

|Worgen are the werewolf wannabes who can’t decide if they want to be human or beast. They spend half their time transforming and the other half brooding about their curse, like a bipolar furry. Their duality is supposed to be intriguing and ezoteric, but ends up being as exciting as a cringey high school goth phase. Play a Worgen if you enjoy unnecessary drama, perpetual identity crisis and especially, if you&#039;re a sick fuck who likes to masturbate looking at Dragonkin porn on [[Rule 34]].&lt;br /&gt;

=== [[Afghanistan|The Horde]] ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ragtag group of misfits, outcasts, and supposed [[dipshits|badasses]] of the World of Warcraft universe. If ever there was a faction that embodies the chaotic energy of a middle school cafeteria, it&#039;s this one. Buckle up, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the murky depths of this so-called &amp;quot;[[cringe|faction of honor and strength]]&amp;quot; – with a heavy dose of &amp;quot;fuck off&amp;quot; and a side of unfiltered disdain, delivered by 40-year-old keyboard warrior manchildren who embody the internet tough guy meme perfectly.&lt;br /&gt;

|[[File:Wow orc.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Orcs: The Green Meatheads&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Fisting increased by 1%&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Passive Gay Fury&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Hardiness&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|Orcs are the muscle-bound neanderthals of Azeroth who came here to literally kill, pillage, rape and destroy everything. Their solution to every problem? Smash it. They’re constantly raging about honor and glory, which is just a thinly veiled excuse to murder things. If you like the idea of playing a character that’s one-dimensional and as subtle as a sledgehammer, orcs are your perfect match. If you can&#039;t afford to play WoW, just paint a brick green and put some googly eyes on it—that&#039;s basically an orc.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow troll.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Trolls: The Laid-Back Psycopaths&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Red Eye&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Ganja slaying&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Da Voodoo Shuffle&lt;br /&gt;
|Trolls are the laid-back, rasta-loving lunatics who seem perpetually stoned, yet are always ready to murder you and eat your corpse, according to their [[special|unique]] culture. They have a &amp;quot;no worries&amp;quot; attitude about everything, even when being impaled by a sword. Their penchant for voodoo and eating long pig is charming in a sort of &amp;quot;we really don’t care&amp;quot; way. If you enjoy playing a character who’s chill but highly deranged, like [[sick fuck|Albert Fish]], trolls are your tribe.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow undead.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Forsaken: Zombie Angsty Teens&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Touch of the child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;5% forsaken child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Cannibalize&lt;br /&gt;
|The Forsaken are the edgy, undead rejects who are eternally angsty. Their leader, Sylvanas, is the queen of drama, and they follow her like loyal emo kids. They revel in decay and despair, making them the perfect choice for players who never outgrew their [[Hot Topic]] phase. If you like the idea of being an [[Avril Lavigne]] reject—always pissed off and dead inside and out—the Forsaken are your choice.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Tauren horde.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Tauren: The Bovine Philosophers&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Milk&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Leather&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Endurance&lt;br /&gt;
|This race is the ideal race for pseudo-intellectual [[neckbeard|neckbeards]]. Half of the Tauren userbase will have the word &amp;quot;moo&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;cow&amp;quot; in their names because they think they are clever shits and internet-funny, when in reality they need to cut off circulation to their dick and set themselves on fire. Tauren are the gentle giants who love to shout philosophical drivel about nature and balance. They’re basically cows with a conscience, who cry when they eat grass because plants also feel pain or some stupid shit like that. Their slow, deliberate way of speaking and moving is perfect for players who enjoy a leisurely pace aka mental retards. If you want to play a character that’s basically Donkey from Shrek, but a cow instead of a horse, the Tauren are for you.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Blood elves.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Blood Elves: The Vain and the Vapid&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Gay Affinity&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Sperm Torrent&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Arcane Resistance (to rape) &lt;br /&gt;
|Blood Elves are the vain, pretty closeted homosexuals and girls of Azeroth. Obsessed with their looks and their [[drugs|magical addiction]], they’re like the Kardashians of WoW. They’ve got a tragic backstory but are too busy checking their reflection to care. Play a Blood Elf if you enjoy being the center of attention and making everything about your narcissistic ass, while everyone else rolls their eyes so hard they can see through the back of their heads.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Horde goblins.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Goblins: Gnomes Meet Mad Max&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Cock&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Black Cock&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Best Deals Anywhere&lt;br /&gt;
|Basically, they are Gnomes, just painted green and given to the Horde, but it&#039;s the same shtick. These pint-sized green disasters are the epitome of greed and avarice. Goblins don’t just love gold, they worship it like a deity, sacrificing dignity and common sense at the altar of profit margins. Their entire society is a grotesque parody of capitalism on steroids, where the only thing more explosive than their volatile gadgets are their bullshit mumbo-jumbo Gangster wannabe personas.&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Neutral Race ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because Blizzard was too lazy, they decided to add a race for both faction on the Alliance and the Horde, and made this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wow_panda.jpg|center|500px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those portly, panda-like creatures that stumbled into the World of Warcraft universe like a drunken uncle at a family reunion. Who thought it was a good idea to blend Kung Fu Panda with your epic fantasy world? Someone at Blizzard must have had a few too many drinks at the company party after watching a cartoon movie for kids?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So there you have it, the diverse (and dreadful) races of World of Warcraft. Each one is retarded in its own irritating way. Whatever flavor of crap you prefer, WoW has something to frustrate everyone. Enjoy your stay in Azeroth – you’ll need all the patience you can muster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Classes and Talents ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the World of Warcraft, where fantasy meets reality, and gamers everywhere embark on epic quests to save Azeroth, all while living in their parents’ basements. But let’s be brutally honest – not all heroes are created equal. In fact, some of these classes are as balanced as a seesaw with an elephant on one end. So let&#039;s tear apart each class with brutal honesty and a pinch of hatred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warrior.jpg|thumb|150px|A mighty [[faggot|warrior]], a projection of the [[you|player]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warrior: The Meatshield with Delusions of Grandeur&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warrior – the quintessential tank who believes that having a ton of armor and health somehow makes up for having the intelligence of a rock. Warriors charge into battle with the grace of a drunken elephant, swinging their oversized weapons while shouting incoherently. Their idea of strategy is to hit things harder and hope for the best. And let’s not forget their favorite pastime: complaining about not having enough heals, despite standing in every possible fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to scream &amp;quot;For the Horde!&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;For the Alliance!&amp;quot; while charging into battle.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re basically a glorified punching bag. Prepare for a lifetime of repair bills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arms:&#039;&#039;&#039; You use your fucking arms, spin like a ballerina and die constantly. &lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fury:&#039;&#039;&#039; Grants warriors to equip a giant dong in each hand, so they have an easier time being faggots. Remember to always use raging blowjob when you have 2 charges.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; A curious name for this, as these are the biggest AIDS on this planet. Nobody knows how to play them, so expect your group to fail every time this is the tank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow paladin.jpg|thumb|left|150px|[[sarcasm|A righteous Paladin]]. Notice how he walks in his own piss to convey superiority.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Paladin: The Self-Righteous Zealot&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Paladins are the holy knights of Azeroth, wielding both a sword and a Bible, ready to smite evil and preach about the Light. They come in three flavors: Tankadin, Healadin, and Retardin. Despite their shiny armor and holy auras, Paladins have an uncanny ability to be both invincible and utterly useless at the same time. Their primary skill? Spamming bubbles and judging everyone around them – both in and out of the game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to wear plate armor and heal yourself. Plus, bubble hearth!&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;ll spend half your time arguing about whether you&#039;re a healer or a tank. &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Spoiler:&#039;&#039; you&#039;re whatever your group needs, you walking [[tool|utility belt.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Retribution:&#039;&#039;&#039; If you choose this branch, just start over. The goal of this class is to get holy power, then spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, kill yourself, spend it, get holy power...&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; The tank of the game. Which is not saying much. Basically, whilst in a fight you get an extra five seconds of life. It&#039;s the kind of thing where you think you&#039;re getting the best of the best, but is really isn&#039;t much different. Only good for raids and tanking. Also enjoy your 1 million life points, and your zero real life points.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Absolutely useless. Can&#039;t heal. Can&#039;t do any damage. Needs to do damage to heal. The damage will suck, and your teammates will scream at you because you used an offensive move, so that you could use your defensive skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow hunter.jpg|thumb|150px|The hunter, the perpetual [[dumbass|dazed and confused]] DPS class that has no idea what to do.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Hunter: The AFK Champion&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hunters, the masters of ranged combat and pet management – or so they claim. In reality, Hunters are known for two things: pulling extra mobs and being perpetually AFK. Their pets have a mind of their own, often running off to aggro entire dungeons while the Hunter is busy texting their girlfriend. They also have a talent for misdirecting bosses onto healers, proving that the real hunt is for competent group members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can solo almost anything with your trusty pet. Also, feign death is the perfect &amp;quot;I didn&#039;t sign up for this&amp;quot; button.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Everyone assumes you’re just mashing buttons while watching Netflix. And let&#039;s be honest, you probably are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Beast Mastery:&#039;&#039;&#039; These hunters have wonderful sexual experiences with their pets, which motivates their pets to fight harder. Take this if you are a furry. Your pets can fight on their, so you don&#039;t even need to be in the game, which is a plus.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Marksmanship:&#039;&#039;&#039; Expect to do less than the other huntards if you choose this, as it absolutely blows the ass.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Survival:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOL TRAPS ARE ABSOLUTELY USELESS.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow priest.jpg|thumb|left|150px|A typical WoW priest realizing everyone knows his dark secret a.k.a kiddie fondling.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Priest: The Masochistic Medic&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Priests are the backbone of any raid group, providing healing and buffs to keep everyone alive. They come in two flavors: Holy and Shadow. Holy Priests are the altruistic healers who enjoy being yelled at for not healing fast enough, while Shadow Priests are the edgy teens who channel dark powers and constantly remind you of their &amp;quot;deep, dark pain.&amp;quot; Either way, playing a Priest means accepting that no one will appreciate you until you stop healing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re the group&#039;s lifeline. No priest, no raid. Instant ego boost.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Prepare to hear &amp;quot;heal plz&amp;quot; more times than you can count. And when things go south, it’s always your fault, faggot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Discipline:&#039;&#039;&#039; So I herd you like shielding. Now you can shield while you shield while you shield in a shield.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let me heal you child, just step into this dark basement.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Shadow:&#039;&#039;&#039; Years of raping kids has not paid off, as this is the weakest DPS class. Expect everyone to pass you in instances.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow mage.jpg|thumb|150px|Totally not a Wizard.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Mage: The Glass Cannon&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Mages are the epitome of high-risk, high-reward gameplay. They can dish out incredible damage with spells like Fireball and Frostbolt, but they have the survivability of a wet paper bag. Mages spend half their time nuking enemies from a safe distance and the other half running away screaming when anything gets too close. Their greatest contribution to any group? Free food and portals – because nothing says &amp;quot;master of the arcane&amp;quot; like being a glorified vending machine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Teleports and portals save you a fortune in travel costs. And who doesn&#039;t love setting things on fire?&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You’re about as durable as wet tissue paper. Get used to mobs wiping their ass with you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arcane:&#039;&#039;&#039; Maintain your mana. Don&#039;t move, ever. Do this and you will win the DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fire:&#039;&#039;&#039; Wait for Pyroblast to proc. Spam other abilities that don&#039;t do shit. Wait for Pyroblast.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE... AND ICE.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow shaman.jpg|thumb|left|150px|It&#039;s a known fact Shamans sweat cum.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Shaman: The Elemental Hipster&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Shamans are the spiritual guides who wield the powers of the elements – fire, water, air, and earth. They have the unique ability to drop totems that provide buffs or annoy everyone with unnecessary clutter. Shamans are often seen in the back, frantically trying to keep their totems from being destroyed while everyone else wonders what they actually do. They claim to bring balance to the group, but mostly they bring confusion and misplaced expectations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Totems, totems everywhere. Plus, you get to yell &amp;quot;It&#039;s clobberin&#039; time!&amp;quot; while dual-wielding.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Juggling totems is about as fun as herding cats. And you&#039;ll always be the &amp;quot;off-healer&amp;quot; in raids.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Enhancement:&#039;&#039;&#039; Similar to Beast Mastery hunter, except Shamans are specific and only do it with wolves. This is for retards who still want to do high DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Piss on everybody to heal them. Occasionally drops a magic dildo which floods the area with cum.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Elemental:&#039;&#039;&#039; These shamans are similar to Arcane Mages, except they can move earth with their dildos. Use lava.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow druid.jpg|thumb|150px|A druid realizing he [[cum|jizzed in his pants]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Druid: The Jack of All Trades, Master of None&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Druids are the ultimate utility class, able to shapeshift into various forms to fulfill different roles. They can tank, heal, and deal damage – all while looking like they got lost on their way to a nature documentary. However, their versatility comes at a cost: they’re mediocre at everything. Druids spend most of their time arguing about which form is best and why they’re not being appreciated for their &amp;quot;amazing flexibility.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can be a bear, a cat, a bird, and a tree—all in one day. Flexibility is your middle name.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Jack of all trades, master of none. And good luck keeping track of all your forms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Balance (BOOMKIN):&#039;&#039;&#039; YOU TURN INTO A GIANT SPACE-CHICKEN AND SHOOT FUCKING LASERS EVERYWHERE THAT DON&#039;T DO ANY DAMAGE&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Giant wooden dildo that heals people by throwing leaves at them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Feral:&#039;&#039;&#039; Either a cute kitten that requires everything to bleed or a giant motherfucking pedobear who is only useful as a meatshield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warlock.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Crazy, evil, socipaths that consider torture a hobby.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warlock: The Soul-Sucking Sociopath&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warlocks are the goth kids of Warcraft, summoning demons and casting curses while everyone else wonders if they’re secretly plotting to destroy the world. They revel in the misery of others, draining life and mana with glee. Warlocks can summon powerful pets, but they’re mostly known for dotting everything in sight and then laughing maniacally as their enemies wither away. Their main weakness? Explaining why they chose to play such an obviously evil class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Affliction:&#039;&#039;&#039; You specialize in giving AIDS and cancer to all fucking players while slowly sucking their cock.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Demonology:&#039;&#039;&#039; Same as Beast Mastery hunters, except warlocks prefer demons and necrophilia over animals.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Destruction:&#039;&#039;&#039; Set everything ablaze. Enjoy getting raped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow rogue.jpg|thumb|150px|Rogues do it from behind.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Rogue: The Backstabbing Bandit&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Rogues live in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to stab you in the back – much like your ex. These sneaky bastards are great at dealing massive damage, then vanishing before anyone can retaliate. Their playstyle revolves around stealth, deceit, and looting all the good stuff while everyone else is fighting. Rogues often remind us that trust issues aren&#039;t just for relationships.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Assassination:&#039;&#039;&#039; wanna-be-Ezio, but in reality, a shitty spec no one plays with, because why would you want to poison someone when you can sinister strike them?&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Combat:&#039;&#039;&#039; You sinister strike them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Subtlety:&#039;&#039;&#039; Subtlety rogues sneak upon people and give them surprise buttsecks.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Death Knight: The Edgelord Extraordinaire&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Death Knights are the dark, brooding anti-heroes of Warcraft, resurrected to serve the Lich King and then deciding they’d rather just sulk around Azeroth. With abilities like Death Grip and Army of the Dead, they excel at making every fight as chaotic as possible. Their aesthetic screams &amp;quot;I shop exclusively at Hot Topic,&amp;quot; and their gameplay revolves around being as edgy and misunderstood as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Blood:&#039;&#039;&#039; GAY HOMOSEXUAL FAGGOT who can tank bosses. Can heal himself better than a raid-geared healer could, which of course makes them [[no|very balanced]] in PvP.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy doing less damage than the tank spec.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Unholy:&#039;&#039;&#039; As a good whore DK is, unholy DKs spread all the fucking diseases from syphilis to chlamydia to their opponents while buttfucking their ghouls. Completely useless. Does even less damage than Blood and Frost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow monk.jpg|thumb|150px|Guys, the Monk is drunk again...]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Monk: The Confused Contender&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Monks are the newest addition to the World of Warcraft class lineup, bringing martial arts and chi energy to the mix. They punch, kick, and heal their way through dungeons, all while trying to figure out why they were added to the game in the first place. Monks have a unique playstyle that involves rolling around and drinking mysterious brews, which leads many to wonder if they’re actually just drunken brawlers who stumbled into Azeroth by accident.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Brewmaster:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOLLLLLLL SO FUCKING DRUNK :PPPPPPPP THESE MOBS CANT EVEN HANDLE ME RIGHT NOW&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Mistweaver:&#039;&#039;&#039; Healing mist, so creative Blizzard. Oh, and some fucking orbs, too.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Windwalker:&#039;&#039;&#039; Typical wanna-be-JackieChan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Demon Hunter: The One-Trick Pony&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow demon hunter.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Notice the gun as most people imagine themselves acutally playing the [[DOOM]] guy, or is it just [[you]]?]]&lt;br /&gt;
Demon Hunters are the rockstars of WoW, with flashy abilities and a brooding backstory that screams &amp;quot;look at me.&amp;quot; They excel at doing one thing: dealing damage. With abilities like Eye Beam and Metamorphosis, they make sure everyone knows they’re the center of attention. However, their reliance on mobility and damage output makes them fragile and predictable. Once the novelty wears off, Demon Hunters are just edgy night elves with a superiority complex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Overall:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft classes are a testament to the game’s enduring appeal and its ability to attract both die-hard fans and relentless critics. Each class brings its own flavor of chaos, hilarity, and frustration to the game. Whether you love them or hate them, one thing’s for sure: WoW wouldn’t be the same without this motley crew of misfits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, next time you log in, take a moment to appreciate the absurdity and brilliance of the World of Warcraft classes. After all, it’s this delightful mess that keeps Azeroth spinning and the players coming back for more – even if it’s just to complain about how much they hate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Expansions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Burning Crusade (BC)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Burning crusade satire image.jpg|thumb|right|Grind, grind, grind, grind and grind, dipshits.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, The Burning Crusade—the first expansion for World of Warcraft, and arguably the game equivalent of a long, excruciating dentist appointment. Released in 2007, this expansion promised to bring thrilling new content and exciting adventures. What it delivered, however, was a cluster of frustration, recycled content, and enough player tears to fill the Great Sea. Strap in, because we&#039;re diving headfirst into this dumpster fire with all the love and hatred it deserves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: A Masterclass in Overcomplication&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, decided that the lore needed to be more convoluted than a soap opera. Enter the shattered world of Outland, where Illidan Stormrage, the original emo night elf, waits with a scowl that could rival your most disgruntled ex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember that badass anti-hero from Warcraft III? Well, prepare to see him reduced to a raid boss who gets beaten like a piñata. He&#039;s no longer the “You are not prepared!” legend, but rather the “Oh, you’re still here?” side note.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Blood Elves and Draenei:&#039;&#039;&#039; Two new races introduced to pad out the player base and offer more cringe-worthy RP possibilities. Blood Elves—because everyone wanted to play an elf with a superiority complex—and Draenei, the space goats who crash-landed into Azeroth with zero navigational skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Like a Rusty Gear&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought vanilla WoW had its grindy moments, The Burning Crusade takes it to a whole new level. Enjoy endless grinding for attunements, resist gear, and the eternal hell of daily quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Attunements:&#039;&#039;&#039; Want to raid? Be prepared to sell your soul for attunements that require you to jump through more hoops than a circus poodle. Let’s make this clear—no one, and I mean NO ONE, enjoys grinding for weeks just to step foot in a raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Reputation Grinding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who doesn’t love spending countless hours doing repetitive tasks for factions that barely remember your name? Get ready to kill the same mobs over and over again in a mind-numbing loop of despair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying Mounts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sure, they sound cool until you realize you’ll need to grind gold like a medieval peasant to afford one. The only thing more painful than getting your first flying mount is the repair bill after you crash it into the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039; Dungeons and Raids: Recycled Boredom &#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard must have really loved recycling because The Burning Crusade dungeons and raids feel like they were pulled straight out of the developer’s trash bin of ideas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Karazhan:&#039;&#039;&#039; A 10-man raid where you spend more time listening to ghostly opera performances than actually fighting bosses. The real challenge is staying awake through the endless trash mobs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep:&#039;&#039;&#039; Exciting in theory, monotonous in practice. Nothing says fun like fighting the same faceless, fish-headed murloc wannabes and robot chickens over and over again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Magtheridon’s Lair:&#039;&#039;&#039; Imagine Onyxia, but less interesting and with more cubes to click. Clicking cubes—because that&#039;s what we all signed up for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Wastelands of Despair&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outland is a visually striking yet soul-sucking expanse of zones designed to test your patience and willingness to live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Hellfire Peninsula:&#039;&#039;&#039; Red, barren, and filled with boars on steroids. It’s as if Blizzard took Durotar, painted it red, and called it a day. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Zangarmarsh:&#039;&#039;&#039; Mushrooms, mushrooms everywhere. If you love fungi and humidity, this zone is your damp dream. Otherwise, it’s just a swampy mess that’s more confusing than enchanting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Nagrand:&#039;&#039;&#039; The one saving grace, because even Blizzard couldn’t mess up floating islands and green fields. But after the 100th kill quest, even Nagrand loses its charm. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Burning Disappointment&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039; is the expansion that promised the moon and delivered a moldy cheese wheel. It’s a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and inject it with enough tedium, frustration, and sheer grinding hell to make players question their life choices. If you enjoy masochism, by all means, dive into this burning wreck. For everyone else, just remember: you were not prepared—for this level of disappointment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, here’s to &#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039;—the expansion that set the bar low and somehow managed to limbo under it. Bravo, Blizzard, bravo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Wrath Of The Lich King (WOTLK)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wrath of the lich king image.jpg|thumb|No, the server is not down, you&#039;re just lagging.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Wrath of the Lich King&#039;&#039;, the second expansion for World of Warcraft, is often hailed as one of the greatest expansions in MMO history. But let&#039;s be real – it&#039;s just another glorified excuse for Blizzard to squeeze more money out of their devoted player base. Grab your Frostmourne, kids, because we&#039;re about to hack and slash our way through the icy, overrated mess that is Northrend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Arthas, Arthas, Arthas&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, Arthas Menethil, the golden boy turned emo villain. If you thought his fall from grace in Warcraft III was melodramatic, wait until you see this expansion. The entire storyline revolves around this angsty prince who decided the best way to cope with his daddy issues was to plunge a sword into his heart and raise an undead army. Seriously, who hurt you, Arthas?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Boring Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; The quests are as repetitive as they come. &amp;quot;Go here, kill that, bring me 10 ghoul eyeballs.&amp;quot; The creativity is truly staggering.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pathetic Attempts at Drama:&#039;&#039;&#039; Every other quest tries to make you feel some sort of way about the tragic plight of Northrend. But let&#039;s be honest, the only tragedy here is the time you&#039;ll waste trying to care.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Frozen Wasteland of Tediousness&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Northrend – a continent so cold and dreary, it makes your heart freeze over. The zones are designed to be as inhospitable as possible, and not in a challenging way – just in a &amp;quot;why am I even here?&amp;quot; way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Borean Tundra vs. Howling Fjord:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard couldn&#039;t decide between two equally bland starting zones, so they gave us both. Spoiler alert: they both suck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grizzly Hills:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only redeeming quality here is the music. Otherwise, it&#039;s just another forest filled with things that want to kill you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home of the Lich King and the most anticlimactic endgame zone. It’s as if Blizzard threw every gothic trope into a blender and poured out this abomination.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: The Definition of Overhyped&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wrath of the Lich King is known for its dungeons and raids. But let’s call them what they really are: overly long, unimaginative time sinks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Naxxramas:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Let&#039;s recycle old content and call it nostalgia!&amp;quot; Brilliant idea, Blizzard. It&#039;s not like we’ve been here before or anything.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Ulduar:&#039;&#039;&#039; Okay, Ulduar was actually decent, but do we really need a raid that feels longer than a Tolkien novel?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trial of the Crusader:&#039;&#039;&#039; A single room raid. Need I say more?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown Citadel:&#039;&#039;&#039; The grand finale! Except the only thing grand about it is the amount of bugs and glitches you&#039;ll encounter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;PvP: Frostbitten Failures&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP in Wrath is like trying to have a snowball fight with icicles – painful and pointless. Wintergrasp, the so-called crown jewel of world PvP, is a laggy, chaotic mess where strategy goes to die.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Arena Seasons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when balance was a thing? Neither do we.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Battlegrounds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy the same old battlegrounds with a fresh coat of frost. Hooray for mediocrity!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Cold, Hard Truth&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Wrath of the Lich King is the expansion that brought us Northrend – a frozen hellscape filled with recycled content, tedious quests, and the whiniest villain in WoW history. If masochism is your thing, then by all means, dive into this glacier of disappointment. But don’t say we didn’t warn you – the only thing colder than the Lich King&#039;s heart is the feeling you’ll get when you realize how much time you’ve wasted. Enjoy the frostbite!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Cataclysm (Cata)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Cataclysm box art.png|thumb|Oh no, it&#039;s Deathwing!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;Cataclysm&#039;&#039;, the third expansion for World of Warcraft, where Blizzard Entertainment decided it was a great idea to take a sledgehammer to Azeroth and call it &amp;quot;content.&amp;quot; Released in 2010, this expansion is the gaming equivalent of inviting a bull into a china shop and then blaming the china for being too fragile. Buckle up, because we’re diving headfirst into this catastrophe with all the love and tenderness of a rhino in a rage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Apocalypse Now (But Make It Boring)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard&#039;s big idea for Cataclysm was to bring back Deathwing, a dragon so angry he makes your high school gym teacher look like Mr. Rogers. His grand entrance involved tearing the world apart because, apparently, dragon therapy wasn’t an option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Deathwing&#039;s Return:&#039;&#039;&#039; He’s back, he’s big, and he’s… really angry about something. Who cares why? Just know that he&#039;s here to wreck your favorite zones and make leveling even more tedious.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Changes:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard thought it would be fun to uproot your favorite nostalgic zones and replace them with watery graves and fiery wastelands. Enjoy questing in the once-beautiful Barrens, now with 100% more existential dread.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Rubble&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced several new gameplay mechanics, each one more exasperating than the last. If you thought leveling was a grind before, just wait until you try to make sense of this mess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Thrilling locales like Vashj&#039;ir, where you get to experience the joy of underwater combat, because fighting in three dimensions wasn’t enough of a headache already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Revised Old Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Say goodbye to the comforting familiarity of your favorite zones. Blizzard’s renovation project involved replacing everything you loved with lava, water, and more hostile NPCs. Thanks, Deathwing!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying in Azeroth:&#039;&#039;&#039; Finally, you can fly in the old world! Oh, wait, that just means you get to see the carnage from a bird’s eye view. Neat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Classes and Races: Tweaks Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced two new races: Worgen and Goblins. Because what WoW really needed was more furries and comic relief characters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Worgen:&#039;&#039;&#039; Ever wanted to play as a werewolf? No? Too bad. Now you can experience the joy of transforming into a hairy beast every time you get mildly annoyed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Goblins:&#039;&#039;&#039; These little green bundles of greed bring explosive fun and mind-numbing quests. Their starting zone is essentially a tutorial in how to blow things up and laugh about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: More Pain, Less Gain&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard really outdid themselves with Cataclysm’s dungeons and raids, creating content so grueling you’ll wish for the sweet release of death – or at least a decent loot drop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heroic Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Cataclysm’s dungeons were harder than trying to explain quantum physics to a toddler. Enjoy wiping repeatedly because apparently, fun is for the weak.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Raids:&#039;&#039;&#039; Think you’re tough? Cataclysm’s raids will disabuse you of that notion faster than you can say “gear check.” Welcome to the world of endless grinding and frustration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Chorus of Groans&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to Cataclysm was a symphony of sighs and groans, mixed with the occasional rage-quit. Blizzard’s grand experiment in world-breaking was met with all the enthusiasm of a root canal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Veteran Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Long-time players watched in horror as their beloved game was dismantled and rebuilt into something unrecognizable. Their feedback ranged from “What were they thinking?” to “Please, make it stop.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Newcomers were left bewildered, wondering if the pre-Cataclysm Azeroth was some kind of myth. Spoiler: It was real, and it was better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: The Cataclysmic Aftermath&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm will go down in history as the expansion that tried too hard and fell flat on its face. It’s a testament to what happens when developers decide to fix what wasn’t broken and break everything else in the process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re in the mood for a nostalgic trip through Azeroth’s most misguided renovation project, by all means, dive into Cataclysm. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you. Enjoy the carnage, and remember: sometimes, the best change is no change at all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Mists Of Pandaria (MOP)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Mists of pandaria box art.jpg|thumb|God help us all!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the World of Warcraft expansion that brought us pandas, beer, and an avalanche of disappointment. This 2012 masterpiece from Blizzard Entertainment was the epitome of &amp;quot;What were they thinking?&amp;quot; Let&#039;s dive into this hilarious, hate-filled critique of the expansion that turned Azeroth into a cuddly, bamboo-filled nightmare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandas: A Joke Gone Too Far&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Blizzard announced pandas as a playable race, it felt like the developers had thrown in the towel and decided to let their kids take over. Seriously, pandas? The epitome of laziness and the ultimate pacifists? Because nothing screams &amp;quot;epic fantasy&amp;quot; like a bunch of chubby bears who&#039;d rather munch on bamboo than engage in mortal combat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Kung Fu Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; is what happens when you binge-watch too many kung fu movies and decide to turn your MMORPG into a parody. The entire narrative revolves around the Pandaren, their idyllic, untouched continent, and the age-old battle between beer bellies and actual threats. It&#039;s like someone watched &#039;&#039;Kung Fu Panda&#039;&#039; and thought, &amp;quot;Yeah, let&#039;s make that our next billion-dollar expansion.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Bamboo Forest&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought previous expansions were grindy, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; said, &amp;quot;Hold my beer!&amp;quot; From endless dailies to rep grinds that made you question your life choices, this expansion was a masterclass in how to stretch minimal content over a maximum timeframe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Dailies Galore:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when you could log in and have fun? &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; introduced a plethora of daily quests that felt more like chores than adventures. Congratulations, you’ve been promoted to Azeroth’s errand boy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Rep Grinds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing says &amp;quot;engaging gameplay&amp;quot; like grinding reputation for factions that offer slightly better gear and cosmetic mounts. Who needs fun when you have repetitive tasks?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Zones: A Tourist Trap&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The zones in Pandaria are beautiful, vibrant, and about as deep as a kiddie pool. Sure, they&#039;re pretty to look at, but once you scratch the surface, you realize there’s about as much substance as a Hollywood blockbuster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Jade Forest:&#039;&#039;&#039; A zone so lush and green, you might forget you’re supposed to be slaying monsters and not on a nature hike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Valley of the Four Winds:&#039;&#039;&#039; The place where you can really get in touch with your inner farmer. Plowing fields and growing crops – because that’s what we signed up for in an MMORPG.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Kun-Lai Summit:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home to the great and wise Pandaren monks, who will bore you to death with their endless platitudes and fetch quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: Filler Content&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The raids and dungeons in &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; were a mixed bag of mediocrity. Some were decent, while others felt like recycled content thrown in to keep us busy while Blizzard figured out their next move.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mogu&#039;shan Vaults:&#039;&#039;&#039; A raid so forgettable, even the bosses seemed to lack enthusiasm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heart of Fear:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing strikes terror into the hearts of players like a raid that feels like a chore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Terrace of Endless Spring:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only thing endless here is the feeling of tedium as you slog through another uninspired raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Monk Class: Balance? What&#039;s That?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monks, the new class introduced in this expansion, were a lesson in imbalance. One minute you&#039;re a god among men, the next you&#039;re wondering if you accidentally unequipped all your gear. The class design swung wildly from overpowered to useless, leaving players dizzy and frustrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Pandaren Parody&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; will go down in history as the expansion that took itself way too seriously while simultaneously being a joke. It’s a love letter to all things ridiculous, a blend of gorgeous visuals and mind-numbing gameplay, and a testament to Blizzard&#039;s willingness to jump the shark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So here’s to you, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the expansion that gave us pandas, plowing fields, and a reason to seriously consider taking up a new hobby. If nothing else, you made us appreciate the good old days of WoW, when we were fighting actual threats and not getting lost in the bamboo forest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the most laughable chapter in &#039;&#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;&#039; history!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Warlords Of Draenor (WOD)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wod_box_art.jpg|thumb|Rage incarnate.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor (WoD)&#039;&#039;&#039;, the expansion that Blizzard Entertainment generously bestowed upon the World of Warcraft community in 2014. In their infinite wisdom, Blizzard decided that players didn’t need new content as much as they needed an expansion that felt like a hastily cobbled together fever dream. Strap in, dear reader, as we dive headfirst into this dumpster fire of an expansion, brimming with frustration, disappointment, and the faint scent of creative bankruptcy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Time Travel Nonsense&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remember when &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; had coherent storytelling? WoD laughs in the face of logic and consistency, tossing players into an alternate timeline where everything is somehow both familiar and utterly nonsensical. It’s like a bad fan fiction that somehow got greenlit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grommash Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Our favorite orc is back, but in an alternate universe where he’s even more insufferable. Because why not double down on a character nobody really wanted to see again?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrosh Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Yes, Garrosh is here too, because we all needed more of his daddy issues and genocidal tendencies. Thanks, Blizzard, for giving us more of what we never asked for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Alternate Draenor:&#039;&#039;&#039; A world that’s essentially Outland, but prettier and more pointless. It’s like paying for a remastered version of a game you never liked in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Garrisons Galore&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought you were signing up for epic battles and immersive quests, think again. WoD offers you the joy of micromanaging your very own garrison, because who wouldn’t want to play World of Warcraft: SimCity Edition?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrisons:&#039;&#039;&#039; A brilliant idea, executed with the finesse of a toddler with finger paint. You get to spend hours gathering resources, sending followers on missions, and watching paint dry. Thrilling!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Follower Missions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who needs actual gameplay when you can send NPCs to do everything for you? It’s like being the middle manager of Azeroth, minus the paycheck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Content Drought:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard promised a river of content, but all we got was a trickle. By the time you’re done with your garrison chores, you’ll realize there’s nothing else to do. It’s like they ran out of ideas and just hoped nobody would notice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: The Saving Grace&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even in this sea of mediocrity, there are a few islands of decency. The raids and dungeons in WoD are surprisingly well-designed, which only highlights how much better the expansion could have been if Blizzard had actually tried.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Highmaul:&#039;&#039;&#039; A decent raid that almost makes you forget the garbage fire outside. Almost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Blackrock Foundry:&#039;&#039;&#039; Another solid raid, proving that the dungeon design team is the only one that didn’t take an extended coffee break during development.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Lipstick on a Pig&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoD looks and sounds beautiful, which is the cruelest irony of all. It’s like putting a fresh coat of paint on a sinking ship. Sure, it’s pretty, but you’re still going down with the wreck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gorgeous environments and character models that make you wish there was more to do in this pretty, empty world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic scores that make you feel like you’re about to embark on a grand adventure, only to realize you’re just going back to your garrison to collect more herbs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Rage and Despair&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The player base’s reaction to WoD can best be described as a collective scream into the void. Forums were ablaze with complaints, and subscriber numbers plummeted faster than Blizzard’s standards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; WoD managed to drive away millions of players, proving that not even brand loyalty can save a bad expansion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Forums:&#039;&#039;&#039; A hotbed of rage, where every thread is a monument to Blizzard’s monumental screw-up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Obvious Conclusion: An Expansion Best Forgotten&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Warlords of Draenor is a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and turn it into a chore simulator. It’s a cautionary tale for game developers everywhere: don’t take your player base for granted, or you might just end up with a steaming pile of disappointment like WoD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re a masochist who enjoys being let down, by all means, dive into &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039;. For everyone else, steer clear and hope Blizzard learned their lesson.&lt;br /&gt;

===Legion [LEG]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Legion box art.jpg|thumb|right|Welcome to Legion. Don&#039;t forget to do your daily quests, noob.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Legion&#039;&#039;&#039;, the World of Warcraft expansion that promised to be the savior of Azeroth but ended up being the equivalent of inviting your in-laws for a weekend and them never leaving. Released in 2016, Legion is Blizzard’s attempt to milk the nostalgia of the Burning Crusade while introducing mechanics that make you want to smash your keyboard into a thousand pieces. Let&#039;s dive into this trainwreck, shall we?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Rehashing the Rehashed&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, the storyline! What a masterpiece of recycled plots and half-baked ideas. Legion brings back our old pal, the Burning Legion, because apparently, Blizzard ran out of new enemies and decided that the third time&#039;s the charm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan&#039;s Redemption:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who knew the angsty, blind anti-hero with a god complex needed redemption? Blizzard, that’s who. Illidan’s return is like finding out your ex is back in town and just as insufferable as ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Artifact Weapons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who needs originality when you can just give everyone a shiny weapon with the same backstory: &amp;quot;This weapon is super important, just trust us.&amp;quot; Oh, and don’t forget to grind endlessly to make it marginally better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Class Halls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The lazy man&#039;s Garrisons, where you can pretend to be important while sending minions on missions because actually playing the game is too mainstream.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: A Grind by Any Other Name&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion’s gameplay loop is like a hamster wheel designed by someone who hates hamsters. It&#039;s an endless cycle of grinding that leaves you wondering why you didn’t just take up knitting instead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; A fantastic way to disguise daily quests by making you travel longer distances for the same mundane tasks. Blizzard’s way of saying, “We know you love busywork.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mythic+ Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Perfect for those who enjoy the sensation of banging their head against a brick wall. Higher keys don’t mean more fun, just more chances for your group to screw up spectacularly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Legendaries:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[Jesus|RNG-esus]] has blessed us with a system where you either get an item that makes you a god or one that’s about as useful as a chocolate teapot. Praise be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Credit where it’s due, the visuals and sound in Legion are top-notch. It’s just a shame they’re wasted on content that makes you want to gouge your eyes out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Beautifully designed and visually stunning, the zones of Legion are the perfect backdrop for your suffering. Enjoy the sights as you contemplate your life choices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic and immersive, the soundtrack is a symphony of sorrow and regret, perfectly capturing the essence of your Legion experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Love to Hate It&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community&#039;s reaction to Legion has been a rollercoaster of emotions, mostly ranging from blind rage to begrudging acceptance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Haters:&#039;&#039;&#039; These folks believe Blizzard should’ve let the Burning Legion stay dead. Their forums posts are masterpieces of vitriol, each more scathing than the last.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Fanboys:&#039;&#039;&#039; Die-hard fans who defend Legion with the fervor of a zealot, claiming that “at least it’s better than Warlords of Draenor.” High praise indeed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;In The End: A Love-Hate Relationship&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion is the expansion that everyone loves to hate. It’s a mishmash of good ideas executed poorly, wrapped in a shiny package of nostalgia. It’s like Blizzard took a look at their greatest hits, remixed them, and then dropped the mic with a smug grin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re into endless grinding, recycled villains, and RNG loot that makes you question your sanity, then Legion is the expansion for you. Dive in, and enjoy the exquisite pain that only a Blizzard game can deliver. Cheers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Battle For Azeroth [BFA]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Battle for azeroth.jpg|thumb|Welcome to BFA. Your full time job.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Battle For Azeroth&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Battle for Azeroth (BFA), the expansion where Blizzard Entertainment decided to take everything we loved about World of Warcraft and throw it into a blender, hit puree, and serve it to us with a smile. Released in 2018, BFA promised epic faction warfare but delivered a steaming pile of mediocrity wrapped in grind and frustration. So, grab your popcorn and brace yourself for a brutally honest, hilariously scathing telling of one of the most hated expansions in WoW history.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: The Soap Opera Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, thought we needed more faction drama. The result? A storyline that makes daytime soap operas look like Shakespearean masterpieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Burning of Teldrassil:&#039;&#039;&#039; Nothing says &amp;quot;fun&amp;quot; like watching a beloved world tree go up in flames. Sylvanas goes full pyromaniac, and we’re supposed to feel… what? Empathy? Rage? Mostly, we just felt the urge to log out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Siege of Lordaeron:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sylvanas, now a discount Saturday morning cartoon villain, decides to play the “let’s gas everyone” card. It&#039;s like watching Wile E. Coyote with a more twisted sense of humor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Faction Pride:&#039;&#039;&#039; The so-called faction pride storyline was as forced as a toddler’s apology. Alliance vs. Horde? More like Player vs. Will to Live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: The Grind of a Lifetime&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039; was bad with its garrison chores, Battle for Azeroth takes grinding to a new level of hell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Azerite Armor:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let’s talk about the system that everyone loves to hate. Unlocking traits on Azerite gear was about as fun as a dental visit. Oh, joy, more grinding for RNG rewards!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Island Expeditions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Procedurally generated boredom at its finest. Collect Azerite! Fight NPCs! Repeat ad nauseam. They were supposed to be exciting, but were about as thrilling as watching paint dry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Warfronts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s answer to “What if we made PvE even more mind-numbing?” Warfronts were like playing a game of Risk, but with all the strategic depth of tic-tac-toe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd Syndrome&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To give credit where it’s due, the art team at Blizzard deserves a medal for polishing this turd. The zones are beautiful, the music is epic, and the cinematics are top-notch. But you know what they say, you can’t polish a turd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Stunning landscapes, rich details, and breathtaking visuals that make you wonder why the gameplay couldn’t match the graphics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sweeping scores that make you feel like you’re on an epic quest… until you remember you’re grinding Azerite in a repetitive, soul-crushing loop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Dumpster Fire&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to BFA can be summed up in one word: dumpster fire. Forums were ablaze with outrage, social media was a battleground of discontent, and even the most loyal fans found themselves questioning Blizzard’s sanity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; Players unsubscribed faster than rats fleeing a sinking ship. Blizzard’s answer? More grinding, because that’ll fix it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Feedback:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s response to feedback was like watching a deaf mime perform: utterly useless and slightly painful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Reality: An Epic Fail&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039; will go down in history as a masterclass in how not to design a game expansion. From the disastrous storyline to the mind-numbing grind, BFA managed to disappoint on every conceivable level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re looking for an expansion that promises epic warfare but delivers endless frustration, BFA is your ticket to misery. Here’s to hoping the next expansion is better – it can’t possibly be worse, right? Right!?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the unintentional comedy and the epic anti-climax that is &#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039;. May it rest in pieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Guilds ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Warcraft Mutant Cosplay.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Your typical &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; player. Note the mutated jawline and [[cosplay]] dress.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like every MMORPG, in order to see the vast majority of the game, players will need to join a guild. The purpose of a guild is to enable the guild master and his best friends to get run through the high level dungeons so they can gear up their characters, so they can go into the next dungeon and get the next set of gear for themselves. It is the responsibility of the other guild members to somehow get their own gear so they can help keep their online masters clothed in the most fashionable of equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Guilds tend to be a great source of drama, especially when epic loots are involved. Due to this, guilds seem to form up and dissolve every second.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, guilds go batshit insane clearing bosses, finishing content faster than Blizzard can hammer out. Butthurt about having to produce content while basement dwellers fork out $15 a month, Blizzard, being the Jews that they are, decided it was more cost effective and lulz inducing to drop the Banhammer on such guilds ([http://web.archive.org/web/1/http://www.wow.com/2010/02/04/ensidia-temporarily-banned-for-exploits/ 2010]) than create more content. Naturally, much drama ensued on the forums and many members threatened to stop their $15 a month subscription if their rightful loot was given back and ban&#039;s were lifted. Blizzard&#039;s response was the Banhammer to many other instigators of drama, solving many server capacity problems. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard is also strongly opposed to debugging software, and when glitches and exploits are reported they will drop the Banhammer rather than fix anything or admit their mistake. Whenever a Guild gets a &amp;quot;World First Kill&amp;quot;, they will be swiftly banned for awareness of numerous exploits. This is how the game is beta tested. This will happen repeatedly until the next 10 patches come out and no one can remember anything about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on RP (Roleplaying) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You might encounter more [[Shit nobody cares about|strict laws]] over guild names and their contents on roleplaying realms such as [[Argent Dawn (EU)]], where your guild name is forced to be IC ([[Serious Business|In character]]), otherwise the [[Nazis|Game Masters]] would not hesistate to punish you if [[Homosexuals|some player(s)]] report you. However, you might also notice some exceptional guilds on this merciless realm which shine like bright sun over all the darkness. A good example would be [[Argent_Dawn_(EU)#DEFNDERS_OF_HEV_RP|DEFNDERS OF HEV RP]]. These brave warriors are led by General Shikoradoro and his comrades; Röman, Philippson, [[Basement-dweller|Mythrios]] and countless number of other &#039;&#039;Doro&#039;&#039; members. They are type of guys that you will fucking hate and love at same time. They speak their own language called &amp;quot;Elwynnian&amp;quot; which is believed to be a dialect of Mongolian, but it&#039;s still quite different and unique. They mainly operate in wild Elwynn Forest, particularly in Stormwind City and Goldshire. Quite interdasting bunch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another interdasting example from the same realm would be The Stormguard. The Stormguard is a military roleplaying guild that basically does nothing but to walk around stormwind with big ass armor on their boosted characters. Led by a female character that has serious sexual issues and believes she&#039;s a man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvP (Player versus Player) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP guilds are generally regarded as badass and cool, but extraordinary types are present.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dara Mactire&#039;&#039;&#039;, or however the fuck it&#039;s spelled is a way too serious PvP guild located on the US realm Darkspear. I think, well they are everywhere now even on the EU. They are a bunch of nerds that think it&#039;s cool to add in way too serious dubstep intros with serious editing skills that form the word: Dara Mactire. Funnily, it was nothing until Swifty joined it and made it famous because of his fanboys wanting to be in the same guild as their hero. Yet, nobody even know who their fucking guild leader is as hes an ungreatful twat getting his guild famous without even making any kind of video to thank Swifty for promoting him from a loser to a even greater loser.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;A Bunch of Gankers&#039;&#039;&#039;, formerly called The Holy Half deads, is a bunch of people that never knew how to PvP yet wanting to believe they could, gathered in one single guild. So therefore it&#039;s an army of noobs that work like a zerg unit. Overwhelming their enemies by pure numbers. Their guild leader, whose name is Fail. Has been kicked out of several servers before, as they now are somewhere only higher powers knows. They will probably keep on changing realm as they get asskicked by every single pvp orientated guilds on each server.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvE (Player versus Environment) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This type of guilds are probably most common type of guilds you can find in any fucking realm. They are usually underestimated by PvPers and viewed as [[truth|pussies, losers, nerds and such]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Ensidia&#039;&#039;&#039;, or something, they change name the same often as normal people change their underwear. Is a guild filled of PvE noobs that are way too bad to even be serious and competitive PvPers so they try to look skilled and hardcore by focusing nobody else links to skill: PvElol. Their guild leader, Kungen, meaning king in Swedish has never ever even killed a player from the opposing faction. Not that he would be able too if he saw one, as mentioned, thats why he choose PvE. Because it&#039;s not enough to kill million fucking NPCs to reach the maximum level. They want to torment themselves by questing and doing worthless raids even more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Official WoW Forums ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with most good [[MMORPG]]s, &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; has its own public forums. Subscribers can discuss tactics, roleplay, offer up item trades and sales, and of course, bitch and moan about how the game sucks and everyone should be playing &#039;&#039;[[Warhammer]]&#039;&#039; instead. (Which they SHOULD be.) Chuck Norris jokes, horrifying roleplay, &amp;quot;hug a class&amp;quot; posts, trolling posts, worthless bug reports, really STUPID suggestions for future patches... All that and a bag of chips is what you&#039;ll find within these hallowed walls.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Additional instances cannot be launched, please try again later ===&lt;br /&gt;

{{morphquote|AICBL|background-color: white; width:65%; height:auto|font-weight: bold;&lt;br /&gt;
|We are aware of the concerns regarding situations where players are unable to zone into an instance due to an instance limit being hit, which results in a message stating that additional instances cannot be launched. This limit was implemented as a short-term solution to preserve the gameplay for players who are already in an instance and to prevent numerous issues that can happen when too many instances are active at the same time, but we are currently working on better solutions to ensure that players can get into instances when they want to.&lt;br /&gt;
|Bornakk, a concerned GM&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|Bump. Please fix this. It&#039;s maddening and very, very frustrating. Sometimes I can get in an instance within a couple minutes and others it will take over an hour.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m okay with performance scaling - but, at least introduce a queue so we know how long it will be and don&#039;t have to keep going at the portal like a retarded dog jumping into a glass door.&lt;br /&gt;
|A logical user making a logical response&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|ARGH I FCKING HATE THIS BUG. every time I get a group THEY LEAVE while trying to get into the stupid instances for 15 MINUTES. I have to level up without ever experiencing these instances and that makes me rage and spew fireballs!&lt;br /&gt;
|Typical nonsense response missing the point completely&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|you fucking idiot i have never used fly hack NOOB! allaicne gate did not open you fucking son of a horniest bitch so i got on top of the building ON FOOT AND WHOLE TEAM WAS SHOOTING FROM THERE FUCKING NERD KID...NOW YOU AND YOUR MOM SHAKE YOUR HANDS AND BOTH JUMP ON MY DICK or TELL THE GM THAT IT WAS YOUR MISTAKE AND TELL TO UNBAN ME. bitch!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
|Let&#039;s see. $15.00 / month x 11,000,000 claimed subscribers....*mutters about math in public*....we&#039;re talking something like $165 million per month, which comes out near $2 billion per year, but they can&#039;t spring for some more instance servers? Guess we know what they think of us...&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some time after the release of the second expansion pack (see above), a massive &amp;quot;bug&amp;quot; was discovered in &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; wherein people could no longer gain their epic lewts. When a player tries to enter a dungeon portal, a large message will flash on their screen stating &amp;quot;Additional instances cannot be launched, please try again later&amp;quot;. Most people took great offense to this as they figured since they were giving Blizzard their money, they should be entitled to do what they want when they want how they want. The truth of the matter is that Blizzard&#039;s hardware just can&#039;t keep up with all the people &amp;quot;raiding&amp;quot; at the same time. Naturally, people just don&#039;t want to believe this due to the fact that Blizzard takes in at least $165,000,000 USD a month in revenue. ($15.00/month x 11 million people.) What people don&#039;t seem to realize is that Blizzard also wants people to GO OUTSIDE AND GET SOME FRESH AIR YOU FUCKING LOSERS.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== [[Shit|Blizzcon]], Also Where Nobody Gets Laid ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally WoW players will leave their homes for what the blue names call &amp;quot;Blizzcon&amp;quot;, and what WoW players call &amp;quot;5\/\/337 d00d&amp;quot;. Here, a large number of &amp;quot;WoW patients&amp;quot; can be seen. Their complications are diverse - ranging from mild conditions such as Carpal Tunnel and [[Leetspeak]], to a severe case of [[ugly]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Sometimes&#039;&#039; attractive people can be seen at a Blizzcon claiming to be WoW faggots. These are not really WoW faggots; they are models paid by Blizzard to appear at these pathetic vomit-inducing functions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzcon features a wide variety of activities;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Class Q+A: a forum for people who play hunters to make death threats to Metzen whenever playing their class approaches any kind of difficulty, and for ret paladins to complain that every class but them is OP because they died twice in a WSG last year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Lore Q+A: exactly as retarded as it sounds; a bunch of chinless, manboob-sporting retards screeching at Mezten because &amp;lt;strike&amp;gt;Thrall&#039;s&amp;lt;/strike&amp;gt; Jaina&#039;s left testicle is saggier in-game than it&#039;s described as being in the official novels.&lt;br /&gt;
* Dance Competition: an assortment of spastic, bony individuals who either do an extremely easy dance from the game or fail horribly at a more difficult one. On occasion a morbidly obese person will attempt one of the more athletic dances. The result is rather like watching a plane crash.&lt;br /&gt;
* Costume Contest: these deeply unattractive people are paraded in front of the crowd; the usual assortment being obese men in their twenties wearing paladin gear clearly made from ceral boxes; ugly girls who clearly worked very hard on their costumes but get no applause because they&#039;re not physically attractive, and sluts with shitty costumes who get a standing ovation because you can see their nipples, causing most of the crowd to go into a sort of feeding-frenzy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only reason to go to this convention is to seal the deal on finally quitting WoW, realizing that these are the horrible people you have been playing with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Addiction ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Divorce money.jpg|thumb|What you are doing when you buy WoW and these expansions]]&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|MMORPG Freak Out}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sufferers of the WoW addiction commonly refer to themselves as &amp;quot;WoWers&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;[[gamers|GamerZ]]&amp;quot;, or in the most severe cases as &amp;quot;Alliance&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Horde&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW addiction goes through several phases, phases of chemical drug addictions. This should comes as no surprise, as the Blizzard employees are reportedly paid in [[crack]]. WoW takes several steps beyond mundane addictions, with increasingly unstable behavior. If you have a friend or colleague whom you suspect of being a WoW addict, it is important to carefully gauge their level of addiction before taking any other action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Check their room for a &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot; box, subscription card, or wrist brace. Often early signs such as this can make all the difference, since while it&#039;s unlikely they will be cured, you can take action to prevent friends and loved ones from being infected.&lt;br /&gt;
* If you happen to walk in on a WoWer during on of their sessions, (as is most likely the case since that’s about all they ever do), DO NOT and I repeat &#039;&#039;&#039;DO NOT&#039;&#039;&#039;, interrupt the game. He may try to gank you with his replica sword he got at the Renfaire.&lt;br /&gt;
* It&#039;s entirely possible that you may catch a WoWer during an intense masturbation session (typically mid-cyber in the tram). You have been warned.&lt;br /&gt;
* From bank statements, see if they&#039;re buying from Chinese gold farmers. If you find this to be the case, you can be sure their addiction has taken precedence over any other financial considerations, and should immediately remove any items of value from anywhere in the area. Don&#039;t worry, they&#039;ll be too busy grinding to stop you.&lt;br /&gt;
* Severe addicts will commonly be in the habit of shitting in socks so as not to leave one&#039;s seat and thus get ganked by some level 23 loser. These hopeless cases are referred to as &amp;quot;poopsockers&amp;quot;, and should be &#039;&#039;&#039;terminated with extreme prejudice.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are but four cures for WoW addiction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Their self extermination. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Assisted extermination by a merciful soul. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Having a shred of willpower, and selling your account for many real dollars to some more-addicted sucker. Then you can buy delicious cake.&lt;br /&gt;
* Make them play &#039;&#039;[[Darkfall]]&#039;&#039; for a week. They&#039;ll be sure to never play MMORPGs ever again!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Players spend countless hours over this game. It will be hard to break them of their addiction, but in rare cases, if they kill themselves like [[Shawn Woolley]] did with EQ, you can Lysol their PC down and sell it. Sometimes some [[fags]] kill themselves just because they get so attached to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*There is however a risk with breaking a WoW players addiction by force. Certain under 18 players are prone to extreme meltdowns on the scale of Chernobyl. Scientists point to this phenomenon triggering when said players parents deny access to &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;. It is highly recommended that anyone living within the vicinity of said players immediately evacuate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Slavery ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:1271802961179.jpg|thumb|right|fuck dose whiteys ben racist1111]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Gold farmers warcraft.jpg|thumb|Farming is srs bzns for [[Azns]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Modern [[slaves|slavery]] is known as &amp;quot;Gold Farming&amp;quot; and is intended to keep the Yellow menace down. When the [[United States]] banned slavery, it was a very sad time for slave owners. Later, the black person started to demand reparations, so something &#039;&#039;simply had to be done.&#039;&#039; [[The Man]] decided that slavery had to be moved offshore, to ensure continued economic prosperity for [[Microsoft]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Farming has been around since before the Internet, but nobody could ever figure out how to grow money until &#039;&#039;[[Ultima_online|Ultima Online]]&#039;&#039; was invented. It isn&#039;t known who made the initial breakthrough, but it&#039;s thought that Alan Greenspan&#039;s lackeys were primarily responsible, since only they could have conceived of such a brilliantly sick and perverse means of enriching themselves. However, the advent of the practice was probably inevitable, since despite their addiction, WoWers often find themselves unable to play 24 hours a day and must find another way to continue while they sleep, eat, or go to the bathroom. So, for $0.50 per hour, a |barely-educated commie living in a sweaty room will play WoW for them. Needless to say, the commie himself earns roughly [[wat|$0.05 per week.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it&#039;s difficult for players to distinguish the gold-field workers from monkeys or robots. They often repeat the same mistakes and speak gibberish (like monkeys!) Work is being done to translate some of their [[moonspeak]]. Know your Chinaman by these phrases: &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;ni hao&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;[Krol Blade] ok??&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;water 1g?&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;is 4 guildie&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;deal giev ok??10g&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;tusoNgaMe $5 4 2thousand free!&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those that speak English become the &amp;quot;boss boss&amp;quot; and take all the money, while the slaves do all the work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Trolling Techniques ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Wikipedousersmall.png|thumb|Showing those fucking paladins how it&#039;s done.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These generate various effects - some bring lulz and some just [[fail]]. Experiment and find your own lulz. However, Blizzard, like most companies, disabled trade/chatroom from trial accounts, because of [[Chink]] gold farmers. A paid account is required for the best effort in [[lulz]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Set auto follow on new players; for whatever reason this really pisses people off.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join parties for dungeons as a healer and then leave about halfway through without saying anything. It works very well. Bonus points if you leave while your group is fighting the last boss of the dungeon.&lt;br /&gt;
# Lead a party into an instance and then randomly boot players from it.&lt;br /&gt;
# Start listing the name of movies with &amp;quot;Murloc&amp;quot; in the title like &#039;&#039;Indiana Murloc and The Temple of Doom&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;Debbie Does Murloc&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
# If Horde, start shit with people in Barrens chat. It&#039;s a non-PvP area filled with low level players, so they can&#039;t hurt you or retaliate. You can troll to your heart&#039;s content.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join battlegrounds at the lowest level possible, and start talking shit about how people have no fucking idea how to play the game.&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja any piece of loot. This will require a time investment, but if you steal the right piece of loot, you will ignite a shitstorm of drama that should keep you entertained for at least five minutes. You won&#039;t get banned as long you&#039;re not stupid enough to post loot rules in chat, GMs won&#039;t have anything to pin on you.&lt;br /&gt;
# Tell people what to do, and when they say you have no idea what you&#039;re on about, retaliate with &amp;quot;Your such a noob, I have five level 80&#039;s and three Death Knights, I know what I&#039;m talking about&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# When using the auction house, be sure to put up shit people need without buyout. Then pull it off the auction house before it sells - this is essentially the closest any WoW player gets to the transfer of goods between consenting individuals.&lt;br /&gt;
# Announce in trade chat that [name of player] is quitting WoW forever and is giving all their gold to the first person who whispers them!&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja a Bloody Apron as a rogue from a priest who doesn&#039;t need it but will whine to their guild to boot that rogue&lt;br /&gt;
# Link any item in trade chat, and state that the last person to link the same item will receive a large sum of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# When in dungeons as a hunter or rogue, use Misdirection or Tricks of the Trade on a healer and attack a large group of enemies.&lt;br /&gt;
# Play as a warlock and fear inside an instance, lulz and rage will ensue.&lt;br /&gt;
# Bitch loudly about how you can&#039;t spend achievement points.&lt;br /&gt;
# Spam trade chat with Anal then a spell, ability, quest, achievement etc &lt;br /&gt;
# Note that &#039;&#039;[[RuneScape]]&#039;&#039; is a much superior online game.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- # Point them to [http://wowflames.com Wowflames.com]! --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# As a priest, use Mind Control on other players when dueling on locations that have cliffs you can jump off and/or while waiting for zeppelins / boats to leave.&lt;br /&gt;
# Accuse all Worgen and Pandaren players of being [[furry|furries]]. This will always cause rage and lulz because it&#039;s [[fact|true]].&lt;br /&gt;
# As a Paladin Tank, use Divine Shield and watch the enemies kill your party members.&lt;br /&gt;
# Use the auction houses to rig the prices of basic items to the maximum amount of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# Roll need on as much loot as you can in groups.&lt;br /&gt;
# If you duel an opposing faction member in a neutral town, hit /forfeit the moment you get hit. It may not work anymore, but when it did, it caused a lot of lulz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Private Servers ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Private servers are available for poor people and unemployed losers that can&#039;t pay $15 per month for the retail version. The downside is that they are utterly glitched. It is not unusual that &#039;&amp;quot;instanced dungeons&amp;quot;&#039; (Special zones wherein most end game content can be found. They are fractioned into unique, temporary dimensions for each player, and can only be entered simultaneously by players with the help of Blizzard&#039;s &amp;quot;raid&amp;quot;- and &amp;quot;party&amp;quot; functions.) Private server providers compensate for their dysfunctional service by setting the experience point and item drop rate up to mega volume. There are two genres of private servers: &amp;quot;Funservers&amp;quot; where you instantly gain maximum level and can get the best gear from a vendor where you begin. Then there are the &amp;quot;blizzlike&amp;quot; servers which have a leveling rate that is five- or tenfolded. When you hit maximum level on a blizzlike server, you start roaming the world looking for some kind of glitch to gain treasure. After all, [[it&#039;s not a bug, it&#039;s a feature]]. Alternatively, you can [[lurk]] your private server&#039;s web forum to wait for the next official event. This consists of a private server admin summoning a boss which drops loot. If you get [[1337]] gear, you can brag to everyone in your guild, general chat and forum. Though, in the next day, the server and its data is probably gone forever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are pristine emulations of Blizzard&#039;s servers. However, they tend to vanish untraceable in the night. This is probably because they face Blizzard&#039;s judicial [[banhammer]]. [http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/05/blizzard-legal-targets-private-servers/ Blizzard targeted the fuck out of private servers. Oops.] There is also this cancerous blight known as &#039;&#039;Private&#039;&#039; Role-Playing servers. Filled with shitty admins and mind-crippled community, they are easy to troll while avoiding getting banned since their masterful devs only know how to edit posts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Je suis Nostalrius ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out of the mess of glitchy private servers out there, there is the occasional diamond in the rough. Nostalrius was that diamond.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike other private servers that were made to sidestep Blizzard&#039;s jewry, Nostalrius was meant to be a legacy server that provided a vanilla experience. Run by only thirty volunteers, they worked around the clock to maintain the server like it was an official server, and for a whole year, it was fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;What happen?&#039;&#039;&#039;: Blizzard caught wind that someone made a better service then them, and dropped the [[Lolsuit]] hard. Over a million accounts on the server were wiped, and the server was shut down. Another private server gone, so everything should be good right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, except for the fact that Nostalrius was a private legacy server, running in Vanilla WoW since new WoW has become a casualized mess. The server was created since Blizzard for whatever reason, refuses to create servers for nostalgia fags.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;youtube&amp;gt;XuOYmqSF6OQ&amp;lt;/youtube&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reaction over the shutdown was so massive, a civil war broke out in the toxic hellhole known as [http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1975197-Blizzard-shuts-down-Vanilla-Private-Server-Nostralius MMO-Champion], several Jewtubers (Including [[Jontron]] of all people) made angry rants, and another million players cancelled their future WoW subs. Great job Blizzard, that&#039;ll show those retards who just want a simple service that thirty people for free were providing.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{achtung|Playing World of Warcraft may cause insanity and an increased risk of turning into a basement-dwelling loot goblin.}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{breakingnews|Blizzard dropped the banhammer on Nostalrius. That&#039;ll surely get their seven million lost subs back!}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{spoilers|text=The grand twist in this game is that the real final boss is your own social life crumbling from neglect. Even the NPCs lead more exciting lives than you!!!}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to World of Warcraft (unironically shortened to &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot;), the digital wasteland where your dreams of heroism go to die and your patience is stretched thinner than the plot of a Michael Bay movie. Launched in 2004 by Blizzard Entertainment, WoW (as in WOW, my life went down the shitter) has managed to captivate millions of [[retards|players]] worldwide, mainly by trapping them in an [[real life|endless cycle of grinding and disappointment]]. With lore so convoluted and undecipherable, it would take eons for linguists around the world to actually understand what the actual fuck Chris Metzen snorted while &amp;quot;envisioning&amp;quot; this crap. It makes &#039;&#039;Silmarillion&#039;&#039; look like a five-minute bed time story specifically written for children with fragile x syndrome. Strap in, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the cesspool of Azeroth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Graphics: Ancient Relics ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Graphics—where mountains resemble freshly baked loaves of bread, and trees look like they&#039;re made from crumpled-up gift wrap. It&#039;s like Blizzard handed the development team a box of crayons from 2004 and said, &amp;quot;Go nuts!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The water? Oh, that&#039;s a masterpiece—who doesn&#039;t love reflective puddles that look like shiny plastic wrap stretched over Jell-O? And let&#039;s not forget the iconic NPC faces. It&#039;s like they all went to the same plastic surgeon who only knows two expressions: &amp;quot;I&#039;m slightly concerned&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;I just smelled a fart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then there’s the foliage! Nothing screams &amp;quot;immersive realism&amp;quot; like flat, paper-thin grass that clips through your boots as if it&#039;s given up on life. It&#039;s as if Azeroth is secretly sponsored by a discount origami company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The real charm, though, is in the armor design. Why does a shoulder piece for a level 20 character look like they’re carrying an entire medieval dining set on each shoulder? Practicality clearly isn’t a concern when you&#039;re walking around with shoulder pads so massive, you need FAA clearance to enter Stormwind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#039;s not overlook those classic textures. WoW&#039;s cobblestones look like someone smeared a JPEG from 1999 across the ground and called it a day. And yet, somehow, these low-res visuals still demand a gaming PC from NASA to hit 60 FPS during a raid. Truly, a marvel of modern optimization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay: Grind Until You Die ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft’s gameplay is like being handed a spoon and told to dig a hole to the center of the Earth, only to fill it back up again once you’re halfway there—or maybe it’s more like trying to empty an ocean with a leaky bucket while a crab bites your toes. In this epic fantasy realm, you’ll embark on “world-saving” quests, also known as glorified errands, like “Collect 10 bear asses.” Yes, bear asses—because apparently, in Azeroth, bears have somehow evolved to grow multiple asses, and you’re the only hero brave enough to harvest them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These “quests” are repetitive fetch missions that could easily be outsourced to any halfway competent NPC, but no, you are the chosen one—the bearer of buckets, the picker-upper of random crap, the unpaid intern of the gods. Every click of your mouse is a solemn reminder that you’re shelling out a monthly fee to perform glorified virtual chores. It’s like paying someone to let you vacuum their house.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And while you’re out there scraping bear asses and picking up literally glowing mushrooms, the so-called villains of the game are just chilling. These are the big bads who supposedly threaten the entire world, yet they’re hanging out in their dungeons like they’re at a company retreat. Surrounded by armies of overly enthusiastic minions who are just… standing there, waiting for you to arrive. Honestly, you could probably knock on their front door, and they’d open it like, “Oh good, you’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for someone to kill us for years.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But hey, it’s not all bad. At least you get to enjoy the satisfaction of grinding for hours to earn a shiny new sword that looks exactly like your last sword, except now it glows. Progress, baby. Welcome to World of Warcraft: where the real hero isn’t you—it’s your ability to endure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Leveling:&#039;&#039;&#039; Experience the joy of killing the same boar 10,000 times to gain a single level. It&#039;s like Groundhog Day, but without the comedic relief.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Raiding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gather a group of socially awkward strangers to take down a boss that drops gear you don’t need. If the game mechanics don&#039;t kill you, your teammates&#039; incompetence will.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;PvP:&#039;&#039;&#039; Dive into the world of PvP where balance is a myth and every rogue is a stealthy demon sent straight from hell to ruin your day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Storyline: A Soap Opera on Steroids ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of WoW is a convoluted mess that makes Days of Our Lives look like a masterpiece of coherent storytelling. Every expansion brings more plot twists and lore retcons than you can shake a stick at.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Factions:&#039;&#039;&#039; The eternal struggle between the Horde and the Alliance is like watching two toddlers fight over a toy – entertaining for a moment, but ultimately pointless and exhausting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Villains:&#039;&#039;&#039; From the Lich King to Sylvanas Windrunner, every villain is a misunderstood anti-hero with daddy issues. It&#039;s like Blizzard hired a team of therapists to write the lore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Community: A Hive of Scum and Villainy ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The WoW community is a mixed bag of elitists, trolls, and those poor souls who genuinely enjoy the game. The general chat is a cesspool of spam, political arguments, and unsolicited advice on how to play your class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Elitists:&#039;&#039;&#039; These players think they are gods among mortals, looking down upon anyone who dares to enjoy the game casually.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trolls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The bane of any online community, trolls in WoW are a special breed. They thrive on chaos and your tears, and they won’t stop until they’ve made you regret logging in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Normal People:&#039;&#039;&#039; Normal people were just trying to enjoy the game, but eventually saw through the facade of pure shite and ultimately left the game a few expansions ago.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Updates: Or Lack Thereof ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard’s approach to updates can be summed up as “better late than never.” Each patch promises to fix what’s broken, but usually just introduces new ways to break the game. The developers&#039; motto seems to be, “If it ain&#039;t broke, we’ll fix that.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Microtransactions: Pay to Play, and Pay Some More ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Micro transactions wow.jpg|left|thumb|Buy, buy and buy some moar!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW has embraced microtransactions with the fervor of a televangelist asking for donations. Mounts, pets, character boosts – all available for the low, low price of your dignity. It’s like paying extra for the privilege of being disappointed faster.&lt;br /&gt;

== The Main Idea: A Beautiful Disaster ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft is the ultimate exercise in masochism. It’s a beautifully designed trap that lures you in with promises of adventure and camaraderie, only to beat you down with endless grind and toxic community interactions. If you’re looking for a game that will suck away your time, money, and soul, then WoW is the perfect choice. Enjoy the ride to nowhere, because in the end, the real boss fight is against your own sense of self-worth.&lt;br /&gt;

== Races ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome, brave souls, to the sardonic safari of World of Warcraft’s races, where fantasy clichés meet the most ridiculous stereotypes the gaming world has to offer. Hold onto your keyboards as we dive into the wonderful, woeful world of Azeroth’s inhabitants. It’s time to see who really stands out… or in most cases, who stands way too far out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Alliance ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The so-called &amp;quot;noble&amp;quot; faction of World of Warcraft, where everyone is apparently too busy polishing their armor and patting themselves on the back to notice how insufferably pretentious they are. Gather &#039;round, dear reader, as we embark on a tour of this faction, which, quite frankly, could use a dose of humility and a reality check.&lt;br /&gt;

|•&amp;amp;nbsp;Pussybitchness increased by 10%&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;Alcohol level increased by 0.3‰&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;Every man for himself&lt;br /&gt;
|The Humans. The race that defines &amp;quot;average&amp;quot; with all the enthusiasm of a damp sponge. They&#039;re the most generic fantasy fodder you can imagine: just your everyday medieval peasants with a king complex. Want to know what a human in WoW is like? Picture that guy in the office who thinks he&#039;s the main character in a dramatic novel. &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow dwarfs.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Dwarves: The Short Stack Stereotypes&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|•&amp;amp;nbsp;100% increased nose&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;50% increased backstab critical hit &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;Treasure finding&lt;br /&gt;
|Dwarves are basically hobbits with a drinking problem and a miner’s helmet. Imagine a group of guys who think &amp;quot;tall&amp;quot; is a cardinal sin and that “work” should be synonymous with “beer.” They’re short, they’re stout, and they’ve got a chip on their shoulder the size of their ego. Great at mining, terrible at everything else, especially personal hygiene. In most high-fantasy works, these lilliputian, anthropomorphic, hairy Muppets are often compared to real-life [[Jews]] due to their obsession with treasure, their extreme xenophobia, and their consistent display of a God complex.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow gnomes.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Gnomes: The Tiny Tech Terrorists&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|•&amp;amp;nbsp;13 year old no life passive&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;30% increased suicide by explosion&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;Escape artist&lt;br /&gt;
|Gnomes are the tiny tech enthusiasts of Azeroth, always tinkering with gadgets and gizmos. Their advanced intellect is overshadowed only by their insufferable personalities. They&#039;re like that annoying kid in class who always had to be right, corrected the teacher, and/or constantly requested more homework. Playing a gnome means embracing your inner know-it-all and annoying everyone in sight with your [[sarcasm|superior intellect]].&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Night elf wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Night Elves: The Tree-Hugging Hippies&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|•&amp;amp;nbsp;5% increased bestiality&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;Passive blueness&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;Shadowmeld &lt;br /&gt;
|Night Elves, the ultimate eco-warriors who spend their days frolicking in forests and talking to animals while embracing their inner homosexuality. Their obsession with nature is so extreme, you half expect them to chain themselves to a tree in protest of logging. With their &amp;quot;shadowmeld&amp;quot; ability, they can disappear into the shadows – perfect for avoiding responsibility and accountability, like the dirty hippies they are.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Space goats wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Draenei: The Holier-Than-Thou Space Goats&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|•&amp;amp;nbsp;2% An hero&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp; increased ruby scripting&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;Gift Of The Naaru&lt;br /&gt;
|The Draenei are the self-righteous space goats who crash-landed on Azeroth and decided to grace everyone with their moral superiority. With their glowing eyes and incessant preaching about the Light, they’re basically the Jehovah’s Witnesses of WoW. If you enjoy lecturing others on everything while virtue signaling and ignoring your own flaws, then the Draenei are your kindred spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Worgen wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Worgen: The Furry Fiasco&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|•&amp;amp;nbsp;Increase your yiffing by 40%&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;Passive doggystyle&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;Skinning&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|Worgen are the werewolf wannabes who can’t decide if they want to be human or beast. They spend half their time transforming and the other half brooding about their curse, like a bipolar furry. Their duality is supposed to be intriguing and ezoteric, but ends up being as exciting as a cringey high school goth phase. Play a Worgen if you enjoy unnecessary drama, perpetual identity crisis and especially, if you&#039;re a sick fuck who likes to masturbate looking at Dragonkin porn on [[Rule 34]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== [[Afghanistan|The Horde]] ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ragtag group of misfits, outcasts, and supposed [[dipshits|badasses]] of the World of Warcraft universe. If ever there was a faction that embodies the chaotic energy of a middle school cafeteria, it&#039;s this one. Buckle up, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the murky depths of this so-called &amp;quot;[[cringe|faction of honor and strength]]&amp;quot; – with a heavy dose of &amp;quot;fuck off&amp;quot; and a side of unfiltered disdain, delivered by 40-year-old keyboard warrior manchildren who embody the internet tough guy meme perfectly.&lt;br /&gt;

|[[File:Wow orc.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Orcs: The Green Meatheads&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Fisting increased by 1%&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Passive Gay Fury&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Hardiness&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|Orcs are the muscle-bound neanderthals of Azeroth who came here to literally kill, pillage, rape and destroy everything. Their solution to every problem? Smash it. They’re constantly raging about honor and glory, which is just a thinly veiled excuse to murder things. If you like the idea of playing a character that’s one-dimensional and as subtle as a sledgehammer, orcs are your perfect match. If you can&#039;t afford to play WoW, just paint a brick green and put some googly eyes on it—that&#039;s basically an orc.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow troll.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Trolls: The Laid-Back Psycopaths&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Red Eye&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Ganja slaying&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Da Voodoo Shuffle&lt;br /&gt;
|Trolls are the laid-back, rasta-loving lunatics who seem perpetually stoned, yet are always ready to murder you and eat your corpse, according to their [[special|unique]] culture. They have a &amp;quot;no worries&amp;quot; attitude about everything, even when being impaled by a sword. Their penchant for voodoo and eating long pig is charming in a sort of &amp;quot;we really don’t care&amp;quot; way. If you enjoy playing a character who’s chill but highly deranged, like [[sick fuck|Albert Fish]], trolls are your tribe.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow undead.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Forsaken: Zombie Angsty Teens&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Touch of the child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;5% forsaken child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Cannibalize&lt;br /&gt;
|The Forsaken are the edgy, undead rejects who are eternally angsty. Their leader, Sylvanas, is the queen of drama, and they follow her like loyal emo kids. They revel in decay and despair, making them the perfect choice for players who never outgrew their [[Hot Topic]] phase. If you like the idea of being an [[Avril Lavigne]] reject—always pissed off and dead inside and out—the Forsaken are your choice.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Tauren horde.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Tauren: The Bovine Philosophers&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Milk&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Leather&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Endurance&lt;br /&gt;
|This race is the ideal race for pseudo-intellectual [[neckbeard|neckbeards]]. Half of the Tauren userbase will have the word &amp;quot;moo&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;cow&amp;quot; in their names because they think they are clever shits and internet-funny, when in reality they need to cut off circulation to their dick and set themselves on fire. Tauren are the gentle giants who love to shout philosophical drivel about nature and balance. They’re basically cows with a conscience, who cry when they eat grass because plants also feel pain or some stupid shit like that. Their slow, deliberate way of speaking and moving is perfect for players who enjoy a leisurely pace aka mental retards. If you want to play a character that’s basically Donkey from Shrek, but a cow instead of a horse, the Tauren are for you.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Blood elves.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Blood Elves: The Vain and the Vapid&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Gay Affinity&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Sperm Torrent&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Arcane Resistance (to rape) &lt;br /&gt;
|Blood Elves are the vain, pretty closeted homosexuals and girls of Azeroth. Obsessed with their looks and their [[drugs|magical addiction]], they’re like the Kardashians of WoW. They’ve got a tragic backstory but are too busy checking their reflection to care. Play a Blood Elf if you enjoy being the center of attention and making everything about your narcissistic ass, while everyone else rolls their eyes so hard they can see through the back of their heads.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Horde goblins.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Goblins: Gnomes Meet Mad Max&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Cock&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Black Cock&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Best Deals Anywhere&lt;br /&gt;
|Basically, they are Gnomes, just painted green and given to the Horde, but it&#039;s the same shtick. These pint-sized green disasters are the epitome of greed and avarice. Goblins don’t just love gold, they worship it like a deity, sacrificing dignity and common sense at the altar of profit margins. Their entire society is a grotesque parody of capitalism on steroids, where the only thing more explosive than their volatile gadgets are their bullshit mumbo-jumbo Gangster wannabe personas.&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Neutral Race ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because Blizzard was too lazy, they decided to add a race for both faction on the Alliance and the Horde, and made this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wow_panda.jpg|center|500px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those portly, panda-like creatures that stumbled into the World of Warcraft universe like a drunken uncle at a family reunion. Who thought it was a good idea to blend Kung Fu Panda with your epic fantasy world? Someone at Blizzard must have had a few too many drinks at the company party after watching a cartoon movie for kids?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So there you have it, the diverse (and dreadful) races of World of Warcraft. Each one is retarded in its own irritating way. Whatever flavor of crap you prefer, WoW has something to frustrate everyone. Enjoy your stay in Azeroth – you’ll need all the patience you can muster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Classes and Talents ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the World of Warcraft, where fantasy meets reality, and gamers everywhere embark on epic quests to save Azeroth, all while living in their parents’ basements. But let’s be brutally honest – not all heroes are created equal. In fact, some of these classes are as balanced as a seesaw with an elephant on one end. So let&#039;s tear apart each class with brutal honesty and a pinch of hatred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warrior.jpg|thumb|150px|A mighty [[faggot|warrior]], a projection of the [[you|player]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warrior: The Meatshield with Delusions of Grandeur&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warrior – the quintessential tank who believes that having a ton of armor and health somehow makes up for having the intelligence of a rock. Warriors charge into battle with the grace of a drunken elephant, swinging their oversized weapons while shouting incoherently. Their idea of strategy is to hit things harder and hope for the best. And let’s not forget their favorite pastime: complaining about not having enough heals, despite standing in every possible fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to scream &amp;quot;For the Horde!&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;For the Alliance!&amp;quot; while charging into battle.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re basically a glorified punching bag. Prepare for a lifetime of repair bills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arms:&#039;&#039;&#039; You use your fucking arms, spin like a ballerina and die constantly. &lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fury:&#039;&#039;&#039; Grants warriors to equip a giant dong in each hand, so they have an easier time being faggots. Remember to always use raging blowjob when you have 2 charges.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; A curious name for this, as these are the biggest AIDS on this planet. Nobody knows how to play them, so expect your group to fail every time this is the tank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow paladin.jpg|thumb|left|150px|[[sarcasm|A righteous Paladin]]. Notice how he walks in his own piss to convey superiority.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Paladin: The Self-Righteous Zealot&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Paladins are the holy knights of Azeroth, wielding both a sword and a Bible, ready to smite evil and preach about the Light. They come in three flavors: Tankadin, Healadin, and Retardin. Despite their shiny armor and holy auras, Paladins have an uncanny ability to be both invincible and utterly useless at the same time. Their primary skill? Spamming bubbles and judging everyone around them – both in and out of the game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to wear plate armor and heal yourself. Plus, bubble hearth!&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;ll spend half your time arguing about whether you&#039;re a healer or a tank. &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Spoiler:&#039;&#039; you&#039;re whatever your group needs, you walking [[tool|utility belt.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Retribution:&#039;&#039;&#039; If you choose this branch, just start over. The goal of this class is to get holy power, then spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, kill yourself, spend it, get holy power...&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; The tank of the game. Which is not saying much. Basically, whilst in a fight you get an extra five seconds of life. It&#039;s the kind of thing where you think you&#039;re getting the best of the best, but is really isn&#039;t much different. Only good for raids and tanking. Also enjoy your 1 million life points, and your zero real life points.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Absolutely useless. Can&#039;t heal. Can&#039;t do any damage. Needs to do damage to heal. The damage will suck, and your teammates will scream at you because you used an offensive move, so that you could use your defensive skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow hunter.jpg|thumb|150px|The hunter, the perpetual [[dumbass|dazed and confused]] DPS class that has no idea what to do.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Hunter: The AFK Champion&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hunters, the masters of ranged combat and pet management – or so they claim. In reality, Hunters are known for two things: pulling extra mobs and being perpetually AFK. Their pets have a mind of their own, often running off to aggro entire dungeons while the Hunter is busy texting their girlfriend. They also have a talent for misdirecting bosses onto healers, proving that the real hunt is for competent group members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can solo almost anything with your trusty pet. Also, feign death is the perfect &amp;quot;I didn&#039;t sign up for this&amp;quot; button.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Everyone assumes you’re just mashing buttons while watching Netflix. And let&#039;s be honest, you probably are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Beast Mastery:&#039;&#039;&#039; These hunters have wonderful sexual experiences with their pets, which motivates their pets to fight harder. Take this if you are a furry. Your pets can fight on their, so you don&#039;t even need to be in the game, which is a plus.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Marksmanship:&#039;&#039;&#039; Expect to do less than the other huntards if you choose this, as it absolutely blows the ass.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Survival:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOL TRAPS ARE ABSOLUTELY USELESS.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow priest.jpg|thumb|left|150px|A typical WoW priest realizing everyone knows his dark secret a.k.a kiddie fondling.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Priest: The Masochistic Medic&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Priests are the backbone of any raid group, providing healing and buffs to keep everyone alive. They come in two flavors: Holy and Shadow. Holy Priests are the altruistic healers who enjoy being yelled at for not healing fast enough, while Shadow Priests are the edgy teens who channel dark powers and constantly remind you of their &amp;quot;deep, dark pain.&amp;quot; Either way, playing a Priest means accepting that no one will appreciate you until you stop healing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re the group&#039;s lifeline. No priest, no raid. Instant ego boost.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Prepare to hear &amp;quot;heal plz&amp;quot; more times than you can count. And when things go south, it’s always your fault, faggot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Discipline:&#039;&#039;&#039; So I herd you like shielding. Now you can shield while you shield while you shield in a shield.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let me heal you child, just step into this dark basement.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Shadow:&#039;&#039;&#039; Years of raping kids has not paid off, as this is the weakest DPS class. Expect everyone to pass you in instances.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow mage.jpg|thumb|150px|Totally not a Wizard.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Mage: The Glass Cannon&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Mages are the epitome of high-risk, high-reward gameplay. They can dish out incredible damage with spells like Fireball and Frostbolt, but they have the survivability of a wet paper bag. Mages spend half their time nuking enemies from a safe distance and the other half running away screaming when anything gets too close. Their greatest contribution to any group? Free food and portals – because nothing says &amp;quot;master of the arcane&amp;quot; like being a glorified vending machine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Teleports and portals save you a fortune in travel costs. And who doesn&#039;t love setting things on fire?&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You’re about as durable as wet tissue paper. Get used to mobs wiping their ass with you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arcane:&#039;&#039;&#039; Maintain your mana. Don&#039;t move, ever. Do this and you will win the DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fire:&#039;&#039;&#039; Wait for Pyroblast to proc. Spam other abilities that don&#039;t do shit. Wait for Pyroblast.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE... AND ICE.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Typical wow shaman.jpg|thumb|left|150px|It&#039;s a known fact Shamans sweat cum.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Shaman: The Elemental Hipster&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Shamans are the spiritual guides who wield the powers of the elements – fire, water, air, and earth. They have the unique ability to drop totems that provide buffs or annoy everyone with unnecessary clutter. Shamans are often seen in the back, frantically trying to keep their totems from being destroyed while everyone else wonders what they actually do. They claim to bring balance to the group, but mostly they bring confusion and misplaced expectations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Totems, totems everywhere. Plus, you get to yell &amp;quot;It&#039;s clobberin&#039; time!&amp;quot; while dual-wielding.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Juggling totems is about as fun as herding cats. And you&#039;ll always be the &amp;quot;off-healer&amp;quot; in raids.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Enhancement:&#039;&#039;&#039; Similar to Beast Mastery hunter, except Shamans are specific and only do it with wolves. This is for retards who still want to do high DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Piss on everybody to heal them. Occasionally drops a magic dildo which floods the area with cum.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Elemental:&#039;&#039;&#039; These shamans are similar to Arcane Mages, except they can move earth with their dildos. Use lava.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow druid.jpg|thumb|150px|A druid realizing he [[cum|jizzed in his pants]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Druid: The Jack of All Trades, Master of None&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Druids are the ultimate utility class, able to shapeshift into various forms to fulfill different roles. They can tank, heal, and deal damage – all while looking like they got lost on their way to a nature documentary. However, their versatility comes at a cost: they’re mediocre at everything. Druids spend most of their time arguing about which form is best and why they’re not being appreciated for their &amp;quot;amazing flexibility.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can be a bear, a cat, a bird, and a tree—all in one day. Flexibility is your middle name.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Jack of all trades, master of none. And good luck keeping track of all your forms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Balance (BOOMKIN):&#039;&#039;&#039; YOU TURN INTO A GIANT SPACE-CHICKEN AND SHOOT FUCKING LASERS EVERYWHERE THAT DON&#039;T DO ANY DAMAGE&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Giant wooden dildo that heals people by throwing leaves at them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Feral:&#039;&#039;&#039; Either a cute kitten that requires everything to bleed or a giant motherfucking pedobear who is only useful as a meatshield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warlock.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Crazy, evil, socipaths that consider torture a hobby.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warlock: The Soul-Sucking Sociopath&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warlocks are the goth kids of Warcraft, summoning demons and casting curses while everyone else wonders if they’re secretly plotting to destroy the world. They revel in the misery of others, draining life and mana with glee. Warlocks can summon powerful pets, but they’re mostly known for dotting everything in sight and then laughing maniacally as their enemies wither away. Their main weakness? Explaining why they chose to play such an obviously evil class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Affliction:&#039;&#039;&#039; You specialize in giving AIDS and cancer to all fucking players while slowly sucking their cock.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Demonology:&#039;&#039;&#039; Same as Beast Mastery hunters, except warlocks prefer demons and necrophilia over animals.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Destruction:&#039;&#039;&#039; Set everything ablaze. Enjoy getting raped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Rogue: The Backstabbing Bandit&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Rogues live in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to stab you in the back – much like your ex. These sneaky bastards are great at dealing massive damage, then vanishing before anyone can retaliate. Their playstyle revolves around stealth, deceit, and looting all the good stuff while everyone else is fighting. Rogues often remind us that trust issues aren&#039;t just for relationships.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Assassination:&#039;&#039;&#039; wanna-be-Ezio, but in reality, a shitty spec no one plays with, because why would you want to poison someone when you can sinister strike them?&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Combat:&#039;&#039;&#039; You sinister strike them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Subtlety:&#039;&#039;&#039; Subtlety rogues sneak upon people and give them surprise buttsecks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow death knight.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Notice the edgyness.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Death Knight: The Edgelord Extraordinaire&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Death Knights are the dark, brooding anti-heroes of Warcraft, resurrected to serve the Lich King and then deciding they’d rather just sulk around Azeroth. With abilities like Death Grip and Army of the Dead, they excel at making every fight as chaotic as possible. Their aesthetic screams &amp;quot;I shop exclusively at Hot Topic,&amp;quot; and their gameplay revolves around being as edgy and misunderstood as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Blood:&#039;&#039;&#039; GAY HOMOSEXUAL FAGGOT who can tank bosses. Can heal himself better than a raid-geared healer could, which of course makes them [[no|very balanced]] in PvP.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy doing less damage than the tank spec.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Unholy:&#039;&#039;&#039; As a good whore DK is, unholy DKs spread all the fucking diseases from syphilis to chlamydia to their opponents while buttfucking their ghouls. Completely useless. Does even less damage than Blood and Frost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow monk.jpg|thumb|150px|Guys, the Monk is drunk again...]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Monk: The Confused Contender&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Monks are the newest addition to the World of Warcraft class lineup, bringing martial arts and chi energy to the mix. They punch, kick, and heal their way through dungeons, all while trying to figure out why they were added to the game in the first place. Monks have a unique playstyle that involves rolling around and drinking mysterious brews, which leads many to wonder if they’re actually just drunken brawlers who stumbled into Azeroth by accident.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Brewmaster:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOLLLLLLL SO FUCKING DRUNK :PPPPPPPP THESE MOBS CANT EVEN HANDLE ME RIGHT NOW&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Mistweaver:&#039;&#039;&#039; Healing mist, so creative Blizzard. Oh, and some fucking orbs, too.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Windwalker:&#039;&#039;&#039; Typical wanna-be-JackieChan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Demon Hunter: The One-Trick Pony&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow demon hunter.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Notice the gun as most people imagine themselves acutally playing the [[DOOM]] guy, or is it just [[you]]?]]&lt;br /&gt;
Demon Hunters are the rockstars of WoW, with flashy abilities and a brooding backstory that screams &amp;quot;look at me.&amp;quot; They excel at doing one thing: dealing damage. With abilities like Eye Beam and Metamorphosis, they make sure everyone knows they’re the center of attention. However, their reliance on mobility and damage output makes them fragile and predictable. Once the novelty wears off, Demon Hunters are just edgy night elves with a superiority complex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Overall:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft classes are a testament to the game’s enduring appeal and its ability to attract both die-hard fans and relentless critics. Each class brings its own flavor of chaos, hilarity, and frustration to the game. Whether you love them or hate them, one thing’s for sure: WoW wouldn’t be the same without this motley crew of misfits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, next time you log in, take a moment to appreciate the absurdity and brilliance of the World of Warcraft classes. After all, it’s this delightful mess that keeps Azeroth spinning and the players coming back for more – even if it’s just to complain about how much they hate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Expansions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Burning Crusade (BC)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Burning crusade satire image.jpg|thumb|right|Grind, grind, grind, grind and grind, dipshits.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, The Burning Crusade—the first expansion for World of Warcraft, and arguably the game equivalent of a long, excruciating dentist appointment. Released in 2007, this expansion promised to bring thrilling new content and exciting adventures. What it delivered, however, was a cluster of frustration, recycled content, and enough player tears to fill the Great Sea. Strap in, because we&#039;re diving headfirst into this dumpster fire with all the love and hatred it deserves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: A Masterclass in Overcomplication&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, decided that the lore needed to be more convoluted than a soap opera. Enter the shattered world of Outland, where Illidan Stormrage, the original emo night elf, waits with a scowl that could rival your most disgruntled ex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember that badass anti-hero from Warcraft III? Well, prepare to see him reduced to a raid boss who gets beaten like a piñata. He&#039;s no longer the “You are not prepared!” legend, but rather the “Oh, you’re still here?” side note.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Blood Elves and Draenei:&#039;&#039;&#039; Two new races introduced to pad out the player base and offer more cringe-worthy RP possibilities. Blood Elves—because everyone wanted to play an elf with a superiority complex—and Draenei, the space goats who crash-landed into Azeroth with zero navigational skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Like a Rusty Gear&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought vanilla WoW had its grindy moments, The Burning Crusade takes it to a whole new level. Enjoy endless grinding for attunements, resist gear, and the eternal hell of daily quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Attunements:&#039;&#039;&#039; Want to raid? Be prepared to sell your soul for attunements that require you to jump through more hoops than a circus poodle. Let’s make this clear—no one, and I mean NO ONE, enjoys grinding for weeks just to step foot in a raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Reputation Grinding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who doesn’t love spending countless hours doing repetitive tasks for factions that barely remember your name? Get ready to kill the same mobs over and over again in a mind-numbing loop of despair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying Mounts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sure, they sound cool until you realize you’ll need to grind gold like a medieval peasant to afford one. The only thing more painful than getting your first flying mount is the repair bill after you crash it into the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039; Dungeons and Raids: Recycled Boredom &#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard must have really loved recycling because The Burning Crusade dungeons and raids feel like they were pulled straight out of the developer’s trash bin of ideas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Karazhan:&#039;&#039;&#039; A 10-man raid where you spend more time listening to ghostly opera performances than actually fighting bosses. The real challenge is staying awake through the endless trash mobs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep:&#039;&#039;&#039; Exciting in theory, monotonous in practice. Nothing says fun like fighting the same faceless, fish-headed murloc wannabes and robot chickens over and over again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Magtheridon’s Lair:&#039;&#039;&#039; Imagine Onyxia, but less interesting and with more cubes to click. Clicking cubes—because that&#039;s what we all signed up for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Wastelands of Despair&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outland is a visually striking yet soul-sucking expanse of zones designed to test your patience and willingness to live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Hellfire Peninsula:&#039;&#039;&#039; Red, barren, and filled with boars on steroids. It’s as if Blizzard took Durotar, painted it red, and called it a day. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Zangarmarsh:&#039;&#039;&#039; Mushrooms, mushrooms everywhere. If you love fungi and humidity, this zone is your damp dream. Otherwise, it’s just a swampy mess that’s more confusing than enchanting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Nagrand:&#039;&#039;&#039; The one saving grace, because even Blizzard couldn’t mess up floating islands and green fields. But after the 100th kill quest, even Nagrand loses its charm. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Burning Disappointment&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039; is the expansion that promised the moon and delivered a moldy cheese wheel. It’s a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and inject it with enough tedium, frustration, and sheer grinding hell to make players question their life choices. If you enjoy masochism, by all means, dive into this burning wreck. For everyone else, just remember: you were not prepared—for this level of disappointment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, here’s to &#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039;—the expansion that set the bar low and somehow managed to limbo under it. Bravo, Blizzard, bravo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Wrath Of The Lich King (WOTLK)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wrath of the lich king image.jpg|thumb|No, the server is not down, you&#039;re just lagging.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Wrath of the Lich King&#039;&#039;, the second expansion for World of Warcraft, is often hailed as one of the greatest expansions in MMO history. But let&#039;s be real – it&#039;s just another glorified excuse for Blizzard to squeeze more money out of their devoted player base. Grab your Frostmourne, kids, because we&#039;re about to hack and slash our way through the icy, overrated mess that is Northrend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Arthas, Arthas, Arthas&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, Arthas Menethil, the golden boy turned emo villain. If you thought his fall from grace in Warcraft III was melodramatic, wait until you see this expansion. The entire storyline revolves around this angsty prince who decided the best way to cope with his daddy issues was to plunge a sword into his heart and raise an undead army. Seriously, who hurt you, Arthas?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Boring Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; The quests are as repetitive as they come. &amp;quot;Go here, kill that, bring me 10 ghoul eyeballs.&amp;quot; The creativity is truly staggering.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pathetic Attempts at Drama:&#039;&#039;&#039; Every other quest tries to make you feel some sort of way about the tragic plight of Northrend. But let&#039;s be honest, the only tragedy here is the time you&#039;ll waste trying to care.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Frozen Wasteland of Tediousness&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Northrend – a continent so cold and dreary, it makes your heart freeze over. The zones are designed to be as inhospitable as possible, and not in a challenging way – just in a &amp;quot;why am I even here?&amp;quot; way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Borean Tundra vs. Howling Fjord:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard couldn&#039;t decide between two equally bland starting zones, so they gave us both. Spoiler alert: they both suck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grizzly Hills:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only redeeming quality here is the music. Otherwise, it&#039;s just another forest filled with things that want to kill you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home of the Lich King and the most anticlimactic endgame zone. It’s as if Blizzard threw every gothic trope into a blender and poured out this abomination.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: The Definition of Overhyped&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wrath of the Lich King is known for its dungeons and raids. But let’s call them what they really are: overly long, unimaginative time sinks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Naxxramas:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Let&#039;s recycle old content and call it nostalgia!&amp;quot; Brilliant idea, Blizzard. It&#039;s not like we’ve been here before or anything.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Ulduar:&#039;&#039;&#039; Okay, Ulduar was actually decent, but do we really need a raid that feels longer than a Tolkien novel?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trial of the Crusader:&#039;&#039;&#039; A single room raid. Need I say more?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown Citadel:&#039;&#039;&#039; The grand finale! Except the only thing grand about it is the amount of bugs and glitches you&#039;ll encounter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;PvP: Frostbitten Failures&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP in Wrath is like trying to have a snowball fight with icicles – painful and pointless. Wintergrasp, the so-called crown jewel of world PvP, is a laggy, chaotic mess where strategy goes to die.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Arena Seasons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when balance was a thing? Neither do we.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Battlegrounds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy the same old battlegrounds with a fresh coat of frost. Hooray for mediocrity!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Cold, Hard Truth&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Wrath of the Lich King is the expansion that brought us Northrend – a frozen hellscape filled with recycled content, tedious quests, and the whiniest villain in WoW history. If masochism is your thing, then by all means, dive into this glacier of disappointment. But don’t say we didn’t warn you – the only thing colder than the Lich King&#039;s heart is the feeling you’ll get when you realize how much time you’ve wasted. Enjoy the frostbite!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Cataclysm (Cata)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Cataclysm box art.png|thumb|Oh no, it&#039;s Deathwing!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;Cataclysm&#039;&#039;, the third expansion for World of Warcraft, where Blizzard Entertainment decided it was a great idea to take a sledgehammer to Azeroth and call it &amp;quot;content.&amp;quot; Released in 2010, this expansion is the gaming equivalent of inviting a bull into a china shop and then blaming the china for being too fragile. Buckle up, because we’re diving headfirst into this catastrophe with all the love and tenderness of a rhino in a rage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Apocalypse Now (But Make It Boring)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard&#039;s big idea for Cataclysm was to bring back Deathwing, a dragon so angry he makes your high school gym teacher look like Mr. Rogers. His grand entrance involved tearing the world apart because, apparently, dragon therapy wasn’t an option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Deathwing&#039;s Return:&#039;&#039;&#039; He’s back, he’s big, and he’s… really angry about something. Who cares why? Just know that he&#039;s here to wreck your favorite zones and make leveling even more tedious.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Changes:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard thought it would be fun to uproot your favorite nostalgic zones and replace them with watery graves and fiery wastelands. Enjoy questing in the once-beautiful Barrens, now with 100% more existential dread.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Rubble&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced several new gameplay mechanics, each one more exasperating than the last. If you thought leveling was a grind before, just wait until you try to make sense of this mess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Thrilling locales like Vashj&#039;ir, where you get to experience the joy of underwater combat, because fighting in three dimensions wasn’t enough of a headache already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Revised Old Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Say goodbye to the comforting familiarity of your favorite zones. Blizzard’s renovation project involved replacing everything you loved with lava, water, and more hostile NPCs. Thanks, Deathwing!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying in Azeroth:&#039;&#039;&#039; Finally, you can fly in the old world! Oh, wait, that just means you get to see the carnage from a bird’s eye view. Neat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Classes and Races: Tweaks Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced two new races: Worgen and Goblins. Because what WoW really needed was more furries and comic relief characters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Worgen:&#039;&#039;&#039; Ever wanted to play as a werewolf? No? Too bad. Now you can experience the joy of transforming into a hairy beast every time you get mildly annoyed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Goblins:&#039;&#039;&#039; These little green bundles of greed bring explosive fun and mind-numbing quests. Their starting zone is essentially a tutorial in how to blow things up and laugh about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: More Pain, Less Gain&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard really outdid themselves with Cataclysm’s dungeons and raids, creating content so grueling you’ll wish for the sweet release of death – or at least a decent loot drop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heroic Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Cataclysm’s dungeons were harder than trying to explain quantum physics to a toddler. Enjoy wiping repeatedly because apparently, fun is for the weak.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Raids:&#039;&#039;&#039; Think you’re tough? Cataclysm’s raids will disabuse you of that notion faster than you can say “gear check.” Welcome to the world of endless grinding and frustration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Chorus of Groans&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to Cataclysm was a symphony of sighs and groans, mixed with the occasional rage-quit. Blizzard’s grand experiment in world-breaking was met with all the enthusiasm of a root canal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Veteran Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Long-time players watched in horror as their beloved game was dismantled and rebuilt into something unrecognizable. Their feedback ranged from “What were they thinking?” to “Please, make it stop.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Newcomers were left bewildered, wondering if the pre-Cataclysm Azeroth was some kind of myth. Spoiler: It was real, and it was better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: The Cataclysmic Aftermath&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm will go down in history as the expansion that tried too hard and fell flat on its face. It’s a testament to what happens when developers decide to fix what wasn’t broken and break everything else in the process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re in the mood for a nostalgic trip through Azeroth’s most misguided renovation project, by all means, dive into Cataclysm. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you. Enjoy the carnage, and remember: sometimes, the best change is no change at all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Mists Of Pandaria (MOP)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Mists of pandaria box art.jpg|thumb|God help us all!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the World of Warcraft expansion that brought us pandas, beer, and an avalanche of disappointment. This 2012 masterpiece from Blizzard Entertainment was the epitome of &amp;quot;What were they thinking?&amp;quot; Let&#039;s dive into this hilarious, hate-filled critique of the expansion that turned Azeroth into a cuddly, bamboo-filled nightmare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandas: A Joke Gone Too Far&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Blizzard announced pandas as a playable race, it felt like the developers had thrown in the towel and decided to let their kids take over. Seriously, pandas? The epitome of laziness and the ultimate pacifists? Because nothing screams &amp;quot;epic fantasy&amp;quot; like a bunch of chubby bears who&#039;d rather munch on bamboo than engage in mortal combat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Kung Fu Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; is what happens when you binge-watch too many kung fu movies and decide to turn your MMORPG into a parody. The entire narrative revolves around the Pandaren, their idyllic, untouched continent, and the age-old battle between beer bellies and actual threats. It&#039;s like someone watched &#039;&#039;Kung Fu Panda&#039;&#039; and thought, &amp;quot;Yeah, let&#039;s make that our next billion-dollar expansion.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Bamboo Forest&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought previous expansions were grindy, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; said, &amp;quot;Hold my beer!&amp;quot; From endless dailies to rep grinds that made you question your life choices, this expansion was a masterclass in how to stretch minimal content over a maximum timeframe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Dailies Galore:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when you could log in and have fun? &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; introduced a plethora of daily quests that felt more like chores than adventures. Congratulations, you’ve been promoted to Azeroth’s errand boy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Rep Grinds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing says &amp;quot;engaging gameplay&amp;quot; like grinding reputation for factions that offer slightly better gear and cosmetic mounts. Who needs fun when you have repetitive tasks?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Zones: A Tourist Trap&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The zones in Pandaria are beautiful, vibrant, and about as deep as a kiddie pool. Sure, they&#039;re pretty to look at, but once you scratch the surface, you realize there’s about as much substance as a Hollywood blockbuster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Jade Forest:&#039;&#039;&#039; A zone so lush and green, you might forget you’re supposed to be slaying monsters and not on a nature hike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Valley of the Four Winds:&#039;&#039;&#039; The place where you can really get in touch with your inner farmer. Plowing fields and growing crops – because that’s what we signed up for in an MMORPG.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Kun-Lai Summit:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home to the great and wise Pandaren monks, who will bore you to death with their endless platitudes and fetch quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: Filler Content&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The raids and dungeons in &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; were a mixed bag of mediocrity. Some were decent, while others felt like recycled content thrown in to keep us busy while Blizzard figured out their next move.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mogu&#039;shan Vaults:&#039;&#039;&#039; A raid so forgettable, even the bosses seemed to lack enthusiasm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heart of Fear:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing strikes terror into the hearts of players like a raid that feels like a chore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Terrace of Endless Spring:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only thing endless here is the feeling of tedium as you slog through another uninspired raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Monk Class: Balance? What&#039;s That?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monks, the new class introduced in this expansion, were a lesson in imbalance. One minute you&#039;re a god among men, the next you&#039;re wondering if you accidentally unequipped all your gear. The class design swung wildly from overpowered to useless, leaving players dizzy and frustrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Pandaren Parody&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; will go down in history as the expansion that took itself way too seriously while simultaneously being a joke. It’s a love letter to all things ridiculous, a blend of gorgeous visuals and mind-numbing gameplay, and a testament to Blizzard&#039;s willingness to jump the shark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So here’s to you, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the expansion that gave us pandas, plowing fields, and a reason to seriously consider taking up a new hobby. If nothing else, you made us appreciate the good old days of WoW, when we were fighting actual threats and not getting lost in the bamboo forest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the most laughable chapter in &#039;&#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;&#039; history!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Warlords Of Draenor (WOD)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wod_box_art.jpg|thumb|Rage incarnate.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor (WoD)&#039;&#039;&#039;, the expansion that Blizzard Entertainment generously bestowed upon the World of Warcraft community in 2014. In their infinite wisdom, Blizzard decided that players didn’t need new content as much as they needed an expansion that felt like a hastily cobbled together fever dream. Strap in, dear reader, as we dive headfirst into this dumpster fire of an expansion, brimming with frustration, disappointment, and the faint scent of creative bankruptcy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Time Travel Nonsense&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remember when &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; had coherent storytelling? WoD laughs in the face of logic and consistency, tossing players into an alternate timeline where everything is somehow both familiar and utterly nonsensical. It’s like a bad fan fiction that somehow got greenlit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grommash Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Our favorite orc is back, but in an alternate universe where he’s even more insufferable. Because why not double down on a character nobody really wanted to see again?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrosh Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Yes, Garrosh is here too, because we all needed more of his daddy issues and genocidal tendencies. Thanks, Blizzard, for giving us more of what we never asked for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Alternate Draenor:&#039;&#039;&#039; A world that’s essentially Outland, but prettier and more pointless. It’s like paying for a remastered version of a game you never liked in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Garrisons Galore&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought you were signing up for epic battles and immersive quests, think again. WoD offers you the joy of micromanaging your very own garrison, because who wouldn’t want to play World of Warcraft: SimCity Edition?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrisons:&#039;&#039;&#039; A brilliant idea, executed with the finesse of a toddler with finger paint. You get to spend hours gathering resources, sending followers on missions, and watching paint dry. Thrilling!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Follower Missions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who needs actual gameplay when you can send NPCs to do everything for you? It’s like being the middle manager of Azeroth, minus the paycheck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Content Drought:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard promised a river of content, but all we got was a trickle. By the time you’re done with your garrison chores, you’ll realize there’s nothing else to do. It’s like they ran out of ideas and just hoped nobody would notice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: The Saving Grace&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even in this sea of mediocrity, there are a few islands of decency. The raids and dungeons in WoD are surprisingly well-designed, which only highlights how much better the expansion could have been if Blizzard had actually tried.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Highmaul:&#039;&#039;&#039; A decent raid that almost makes you forget the garbage fire outside. Almost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Blackrock Foundry:&#039;&#039;&#039; Another solid raid, proving that the dungeon design team is the only one that didn’t take an extended coffee break during development.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Lipstick on a Pig&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoD looks and sounds beautiful, which is the cruelest irony of all. It’s like putting a fresh coat of paint on a sinking ship. Sure, it’s pretty, but you’re still going down with the wreck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gorgeous environments and character models that make you wish there was more to do in this pretty, empty world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic scores that make you feel like you’re about to embark on a grand adventure, only to realize you’re just going back to your garrison to collect more herbs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Rage and Despair&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The player base’s reaction to WoD can best be described as a collective scream into the void. Forums were ablaze with complaints, and subscriber numbers plummeted faster than Blizzard’s standards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; WoD managed to drive away millions of players, proving that not even brand loyalty can save a bad expansion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Forums:&#039;&#039;&#039; A hotbed of rage, where every thread is a monument to Blizzard’s monumental screw-up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Obvious Conclusion: An Expansion Best Forgotten&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Warlords of Draenor is a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and turn it into a chore simulator. It’s a cautionary tale for game developers everywhere: don’t take your player base for granted, or you might just end up with a steaming pile of disappointment like WoD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re a masochist who enjoys being let down, by all means, dive into &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039;. For everyone else, steer clear and hope Blizzard learned their lesson.&lt;br /&gt;

===Legion [LEG]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Legion box art.jpg|thumb|right|Welcome to Legion. Don&#039;t forget to do your daily quests, noob.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Legion&#039;&#039;&#039;, the World of Warcraft expansion that promised to be the savior of Azeroth but ended up being the equivalent of inviting your in-laws for a weekend and them never leaving. Released in 2016, Legion is Blizzard’s attempt to milk the nostalgia of the Burning Crusade while introducing mechanics that make you want to smash your keyboard into a thousand pieces. Let&#039;s dive into this trainwreck, shall we?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Rehashing the Rehashed&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, the storyline! What a masterpiece of recycled plots and half-baked ideas. Legion brings back our old pal, the Burning Legion, because apparently, Blizzard ran out of new enemies and decided that the third time&#039;s the charm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan&#039;s Redemption:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who knew the angsty, blind anti-hero with a god complex needed redemption? Blizzard, that’s who. Illidan’s return is like finding out your ex is back in town and just as insufferable as ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Artifact Weapons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who needs originality when you can just give everyone a shiny weapon with the same backstory: &amp;quot;This weapon is super important, just trust us.&amp;quot; Oh, and don’t forget to grind endlessly to make it marginally better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Class Halls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The lazy man&#039;s Garrisons, where you can pretend to be important while sending minions on missions because actually playing the game is too mainstream.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: A Grind by Any Other Name&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion’s gameplay loop is like a hamster wheel designed by someone who hates hamsters. It&#039;s an endless cycle of grinding that leaves you wondering why you didn’t just take up knitting instead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; A fantastic way to disguise daily quests by making you travel longer distances for the same mundane tasks. Blizzard’s way of saying, “We know you love busywork.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mythic+ Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Perfect for those who enjoy the sensation of banging their head against a brick wall. Higher keys don’t mean more fun, just more chances for your group to screw up spectacularly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Legendaries:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[Jesus|RNG-esus]] has blessed us with a system where you either get an item that makes you a god or one that’s about as useful as a chocolate teapot. Praise be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Credit where it’s due, the visuals and sound in Legion are top-notch. It’s just a shame they’re wasted on content that makes you want to gouge your eyes out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Beautifully designed and visually stunning, the zones of Legion are the perfect backdrop for your suffering. Enjoy the sights as you contemplate your life choices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic and immersive, the soundtrack is a symphony of sorrow and regret, perfectly capturing the essence of your Legion experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Love to Hate It&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community&#039;s reaction to Legion has been a rollercoaster of emotions, mostly ranging from blind rage to begrudging acceptance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Haters:&#039;&#039;&#039; These folks believe Blizzard should’ve let the Burning Legion stay dead. Their forums posts are masterpieces of vitriol, each more scathing than the last.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Fanboys:&#039;&#039;&#039; Die-hard fans who defend Legion with the fervor of a zealot, claiming that “at least it’s better than Warlords of Draenor.” High praise indeed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;In The End: A Love-Hate Relationship&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion is the expansion that everyone loves to hate. It’s a mishmash of good ideas executed poorly, wrapped in a shiny package of nostalgia. It’s like Blizzard took a look at their greatest hits, remixed them, and then dropped the mic with a smug grin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re into endless grinding, recycled villains, and RNG loot that makes you question your sanity, then Legion is the expansion for you. Dive in, and enjoy the exquisite pain that only a Blizzard game can deliver. Cheers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Battle For Azeroth [BFA]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Battle for azeroth.jpg|thumb|Welcome to BFA. Your full time job.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Battle For Azeroth&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Battle for Azeroth (BFA), the expansion where Blizzard Entertainment decided to take everything we loved about World of Warcraft and throw it into a blender, hit puree, and serve it to us with a smile. Released in 2018, BFA promised epic faction warfare but delivered a steaming pile of mediocrity wrapped in grind and frustration. So, grab your popcorn and brace yourself for a brutally honest, hilariously scathing telling of one of the most hated expansions in WoW history.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: The Soap Opera Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, thought we needed more faction drama. The result? A storyline that makes daytime soap operas look like Shakespearean masterpieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Burning of Teldrassil:&#039;&#039;&#039; Nothing says &amp;quot;fun&amp;quot; like watching a beloved world tree go up in flames. Sylvanas goes full pyromaniac, and we’re supposed to feel… what? Empathy? Rage? Mostly, we just felt the urge to log out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Siege of Lordaeron:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sylvanas, now a discount Saturday morning cartoon villain, decides to play the “let’s gas everyone” card. It&#039;s like watching Wile E. Coyote with a more twisted sense of humor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Faction Pride:&#039;&#039;&#039; The so-called faction pride storyline was as forced as a toddler’s apology. Alliance vs. Horde? More like Player vs. Will to Live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: The Grind of a Lifetime&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039; was bad with its garrison chores, Battle for Azeroth takes grinding to a new level of hell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Azerite Armor:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let’s talk about the system that everyone loves to hate. Unlocking traits on Azerite gear was about as fun as a dental visit. Oh, joy, more grinding for RNG rewards!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Island Expeditions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Procedurally generated boredom at its finest. Collect Azerite! Fight NPCs! Repeat ad nauseam. They were supposed to be exciting, but were about as thrilling as watching paint dry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Warfronts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s answer to “What if we made PvE even more mind-numbing?” Warfronts were like playing a game of Risk, but with all the strategic depth of tic-tac-toe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd Syndrome&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To give credit where it’s due, the art team at Blizzard deserves a medal for polishing this turd. The zones are beautiful, the music is epic, and the cinematics are top-notch. But you know what they say, you can’t polish a turd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Stunning landscapes, rich details, and breathtaking visuals that make you wonder why the gameplay couldn’t match the graphics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sweeping scores that make you feel like you’re on an epic quest… until you remember you’re grinding Azerite in a repetitive, soul-crushing loop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Dumpster Fire&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to BFA can be summed up in one word: dumpster fire. Forums were ablaze with outrage, social media was a battleground of discontent, and even the most loyal fans found themselves questioning Blizzard’s sanity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; Players unsubscribed faster than rats fleeing a sinking ship. Blizzard’s answer? More grinding, because that’ll fix it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Feedback:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s response to feedback was like watching a deaf mime perform: utterly useless and slightly painful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Reality: An Epic Fail&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039; will go down in history as a masterclass in how not to design a game expansion. From the disastrous storyline to the mind-numbing grind, BFA managed to disappoint on every conceivable level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re looking for an expansion that promises epic warfare but delivers endless frustration, BFA is your ticket to misery. Here’s to hoping the next expansion is better – it can’t possibly be worse, right? Right!?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the unintentional comedy and the epic anti-climax that is &#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039;. May it rest in pieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Guilds ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Warcraft Mutant Cosplay.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Your typical &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; player. Note the mutated jawline and [[cosplay]] dress.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like every MMORPG, in order to see the vast majority of the game, players will need to join a guild. The purpose of a guild is to enable the guild master and his best friends to get run through the high level dungeons so they can gear up their characters, so they can go into the next dungeon and get the next set of gear for themselves. It is the responsibility of the other guild members to somehow get their own gear so they can help keep their online masters clothed in the most fashionable of equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Guilds tend to be a great source of drama, especially when epic loots are involved. Due to this, guilds seem to form up and dissolve every second.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, guilds go batshit insane clearing bosses, finishing content faster than Blizzard can hammer out. Butthurt about having to produce content while basement dwellers fork out $15 a month, Blizzard, being the Jews that they are, decided it was more cost effective and lulz inducing to drop the Banhammer on such guilds ([http://web.archive.org/web/1/http://www.wow.com/2010/02/04/ensidia-temporarily-banned-for-exploits/ 2010]) than create more content. Naturally, much drama ensued on the forums and many members threatened to stop their $15 a month subscription if their rightful loot was given back and ban&#039;s were lifted. Blizzard&#039;s response was the Banhammer to many other instigators of drama, solving many server capacity problems. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard is also strongly opposed to debugging software, and when glitches and exploits are reported they will drop the Banhammer rather than fix anything or admit their mistake. Whenever a Guild gets a &amp;quot;World First Kill&amp;quot;, they will be swiftly banned for awareness of numerous exploits. This is how the game is beta tested. This will happen repeatedly until the next 10 patches come out and no one can remember anything about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on RP (Roleplaying) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You might encounter more [[Shit nobody cares about|strict laws]] over guild names and their contents on roleplaying realms such as [[Argent Dawn (EU)]], where your guild name is forced to be IC ([[Serious Business|In character]]), otherwise the [[Nazis|Game Masters]] would not hesistate to punish you if [[Homosexuals|some player(s)]] report you. However, you might also notice some exceptional guilds on this merciless realm which shine like bright sun over all the darkness. A good example would be [[Argent_Dawn_(EU)#DEFNDERS_OF_HEV_RP|DEFNDERS OF HEV RP]]. These brave warriors are led by General Shikoradoro and his comrades; Röman, Philippson, [[Basement-dweller|Mythrios]] and countless number of other &#039;&#039;Doro&#039;&#039; members. They are type of guys that you will fucking hate and love at same time. They speak their own language called &amp;quot;Elwynnian&amp;quot; which is believed to be a dialect of Mongolian, but it&#039;s still quite different and unique. They mainly operate in wild Elwynn Forest, particularly in Stormwind City and Goldshire. Quite interdasting bunch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another interdasting example from the same realm would be The Stormguard. The Stormguard is a military roleplaying guild that basically does nothing but to walk around stormwind with big ass armor on their boosted characters. Led by a female character that has serious sexual issues and believes she&#039;s a man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvP (Player versus Player) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP guilds are generally regarded as badass and cool, but extraordinary types are present.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dara Mactire&#039;&#039;&#039;, or however the fuck it&#039;s spelled is a way too serious PvP guild located on the US realm Darkspear. I think, well they are everywhere now even on the EU. They are a bunch of nerds that think it&#039;s cool to add in way too serious dubstep intros with serious editing skills that form the word: Dara Mactire. Funnily, it was nothing until Swifty joined it and made it famous because of his fanboys wanting to be in the same guild as their hero. Yet, nobody even know who their fucking guild leader is as hes an ungreatful twat getting his guild famous without even making any kind of video to thank Swifty for promoting him from a loser to a even greater loser.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;A Bunch of Gankers&#039;&#039;&#039;, formerly called The Holy Half deads, is a bunch of people that never knew how to PvP yet wanting to believe they could, gathered in one single guild. So therefore it&#039;s an army of noobs that work like a zerg unit. Overwhelming their enemies by pure numbers. Their guild leader, whose name is Fail. Has been kicked out of several servers before, as they now are somewhere only higher powers knows. They will probably keep on changing realm as they get asskicked by every single pvp orientated guilds on each server.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvE (Player versus Environment) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This type of guilds are probably most common type of guilds you can find in any fucking realm. They are usually underestimated by PvPers and viewed as [[truth|pussies, losers, nerds and such]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Ensidia&#039;&#039;&#039;, or something, they change name the same often as normal people change their underwear. Is a guild filled of PvE noobs that are way too bad to even be serious and competitive PvPers so they try to look skilled and hardcore by focusing nobody else links to skill: PvElol. Their guild leader, Kungen, meaning king in Swedish has never ever even killed a player from the opposing faction. Not that he would be able too if he saw one, as mentioned, thats why he choose PvE. Because it&#039;s not enough to kill million fucking NPCs to reach the maximum level. They want to torment themselves by questing and doing worthless raids even more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Official WoW Forums ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with most good [[MMORPG]]s, &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; has its own public forums. Subscribers can discuss tactics, roleplay, offer up item trades and sales, and of course, bitch and moan about how the game sucks and everyone should be playing &#039;&#039;[[Warhammer]]&#039;&#039; instead. (Which they SHOULD be.) Chuck Norris jokes, horrifying roleplay, &amp;quot;hug a class&amp;quot; posts, trolling posts, worthless bug reports, really STUPID suggestions for future patches... All that and a bag of chips is what you&#039;ll find within these hallowed walls.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Additional instances cannot be launched, please try again later ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{{morphquote|AICBL|background-color: white; width:65%; height:auto|font-weight: bold;&lt;br /&gt;
|We are aware of the concerns regarding situations where players are unable to zone into an instance due to an instance limit being hit, which results in a message stating that additional instances cannot be launched. This limit was implemented as a short-term solution to preserve the gameplay for players who are already in an instance and to prevent numerous issues that can happen when too many instances are active at the same time, but we are currently working on better solutions to ensure that players can get into instances when they want to.&lt;br /&gt;
|Bornakk, a concerned GM&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|Bump. Please fix this. It&#039;s maddening and very, very frustrating. Sometimes I can get in an instance within a couple minutes and others it will take over an hour.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m okay with performance scaling - but, at least introduce a queue so we know how long it will be and don&#039;t have to keep going at the portal like a retarded dog jumping into a glass door.&lt;br /&gt;
|A logical user making a logical response&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|ARGH I FCKING HATE THIS BUG. every time I get a group THEY LEAVE while trying to get into the stupid instances for 15 MINUTES. I have to level up without ever experiencing these instances and that makes me rage and spew fireballs!&lt;br /&gt;

Guess we know what they think of us...&lt;br /&gt;
|Mathemagical response from a roleplay geek}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some time after the release of the second expansion pack (see above), a massive &amp;quot;bug&amp;quot; was discovered in &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; wherein people could no longer gain their epic lewts. When a player tries to enter a dungeon portal, a large message will flash on their screen stating &amp;quot;Additional instances cannot be launched, please try again later&amp;quot;. Most people took great offense to this as they figured since they were giving Blizzard their money, they should be entitled to do what they want when they want how they want. The truth of the matter is that Blizzard&#039;s hardware just can&#039;t keep up with all the people &amp;quot;raiding&amp;quot; at the same time. Naturally, people just don&#039;t want to believe this due to the fact that Blizzard takes in at least $165,000,000 USD a month in revenue. ($15.00/month x 11 million people.) What people don&#039;t seem to realize is that Blizzard also wants people to GO OUTSIDE AND GET SOME FRESH AIR YOU FUCKING LOSERS.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== [[Shit|Blizzcon]], Also Where Nobody Gets Laid ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally WoW players will leave their homes for what the blue names call &amp;quot;Blizzcon&amp;quot;, and what WoW players call &amp;quot;5\/\/337 d00d&amp;quot;. Here, a large number of &amp;quot;WoW patients&amp;quot; can be seen. Their complications are diverse - ranging from mild conditions such as Carpal Tunnel and [[Leetspeak]], to a severe case of [[ugly]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Sometimes&#039;&#039; attractive people can be seen at a Blizzcon claiming to be WoW faggots. These are not really WoW faggots; they are models paid by Blizzard to appear at these pathetic vomit-inducing functions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzcon features a wide variety of activities;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Class Q+A: a forum for people who play hunters to make death threats to Metzen whenever playing their class approaches any kind of difficulty, and for ret paladins to complain that every class but them is OP because they died twice in a WSG last year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Lore Q+A: exactly as retarded as it sounds; a bunch of chinless, manboob-sporting retards screeching at Mezten because &amp;lt;strike&amp;gt;Thrall&#039;s&amp;lt;/strike&amp;gt; Jaina&#039;s left testicle is saggier in-game than it&#039;s described as being in the official novels.&lt;br /&gt;
* Dance Competition: an assortment of spastic, bony individuals who either do an extremely easy dance from the game or fail horribly at a more difficult one. On occasion a morbidly obese person will attempt one of the more athletic dances. The result is rather like watching a plane crash.&lt;br /&gt;
* Costume Contest: these deeply unattractive people are paraded in front of the crowd; the usual assortment being obese men in their twenties wearing paladin gear clearly made from ceral boxes; ugly girls who clearly worked very hard on their costumes but get no applause because they&#039;re not physically attractive, and sluts with shitty costumes who get a standing ovation because you can see their nipples, causing most of the crowd to go into a sort of feeding-frenzy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only reason to go to this convention is to seal the deal on finally quitting WoW, realizing that these are the horrible people you have been playing with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Addiction ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Divorce money.jpg|thumb|What you are doing when you buy WoW and these expansions]]&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|MMORPG Freak Out}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sufferers of the WoW addiction commonly refer to themselves as &amp;quot;WoWers&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;[[gamers|GamerZ]]&amp;quot;, or in the most severe cases as &amp;quot;Alliance&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Horde&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW addiction goes through several phases, phases of chemical drug addictions. This should comes as no surprise, as the Blizzard employees are reportedly paid in [[crack]]. WoW takes several steps beyond mundane addictions, with increasingly unstable behavior. If you have a friend or colleague whom you suspect of being a WoW addict, it is important to carefully gauge their level of addiction before taking any other action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Check their room for a &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot; box, subscription card, or wrist brace. Often early signs such as this can make all the difference, since while it&#039;s unlikely they will be cured, you can take action to prevent friends and loved ones from being infected.&lt;br /&gt;
* If you happen to walk in on a WoWer during on of their sessions, (as is most likely the case since that’s about all they ever do), DO NOT and I repeat &#039;&#039;&#039;DO NOT&#039;&#039;&#039;, interrupt the game. He may try to gank you with his replica sword he got at the Renfaire.&lt;br /&gt;
* It&#039;s entirely possible that you may catch a WoWer during an intense masturbation session (typically mid-cyber in the tram). You have been warned.&lt;br /&gt;
* From bank statements, see if they&#039;re buying from Chinese gold farmers. If you find this to be the case, you can be sure their addiction has taken precedence over any other financial considerations, and should immediately remove any items of value from anywhere in the area. Don&#039;t worry, they&#039;ll be too busy grinding to stop you.&lt;br /&gt;
* Severe addicts will commonly be in the habit of shitting in socks so as not to leave one&#039;s seat and thus get ganked by some level 23 loser. These hopeless cases are referred to as &amp;quot;poopsockers&amp;quot;, and should be &#039;&#039;&#039;terminated with extreme prejudice.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are but four cures for WoW addiction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Their self extermination. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Assisted extermination by a merciful soul. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Having a shred of willpower, and selling your account for many real dollars to some more-addicted sucker. Then you can buy delicious cake.&lt;br /&gt;
* Make them play &#039;&#039;[[Darkfall]]&#039;&#039; for a week. They&#039;ll be sure to never play MMORPGs ever again!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Players spend countless hours over this game. It will be hard to break them of their addiction, but in rare cases, if they kill themselves like [[Shawn Woolley]] did with EQ, you can Lysol their PC down and sell it. Sometimes some [[fags]] kill themselves just because they get so attached to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*There is however a risk with breaking a WoW players addiction by force. Certain under 18 players are prone to extreme meltdowns on the scale of Chernobyl. Scientists point to this phenomenon triggering when said players parents deny access to &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;. It is highly recommended that anyone living within the vicinity of said players immediately evacuate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Slavery ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:1271802961179.jpg|thumb|right|fuck dose whiteys ben racist1111]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Gold farmers warcraft.jpg|thumb|Farming is srs bzns for [[Azns]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Modern [[slaves|slavery]] is known as &amp;quot;Gold Farming&amp;quot; and is intended to keep the Yellow menace down. When the [[United States]] banned slavery, it was a very sad time for slave owners. Later, the black person started to demand reparations, so something &#039;&#039;simply had to be done.&#039;&#039; [[The Man]] decided that slavery had to be moved offshore, to ensure continued economic prosperity for [[Microsoft]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Farming has been around since before the Internet, but nobody could ever figure out how to grow money until &#039;&#039;[[Ultima_online|Ultima Online]]&#039;&#039; was invented. It isn&#039;t known who made the initial breakthrough, but it&#039;s thought that Alan Greenspan&#039;s lackeys were primarily responsible, since only they could have conceived of such a brilliantly sick and perverse means of enriching themselves. However, the advent of the practice was probably inevitable, since despite their addiction, WoWers often find themselves unable to play 24 hours a day and must find another way to continue while they sleep, eat, or go to the bathroom. So, for $0.50 per hour, a |barely-educated commie living in a sweaty room will play WoW for them. Needless to say, the commie himself earns roughly [[wat|$0.05 per week.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it&#039;s difficult for players to distinguish the gold-field workers from monkeys or robots. They often repeat the same mistakes and speak gibberish (like monkeys!) Work is being done to translate some of their [[moonspeak]]. Know your Chinaman by these phrases: &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;ni hao&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;[Krol Blade] ok??&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;water 1g?&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;is 4 guildie&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;deal giev ok??10g&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;tusoNgaMe $5 4 2thousand free!&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those that speak English become the &amp;quot;boss boss&amp;quot; and take all the money, while the slaves do all the work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Trolling Techniques ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Wikipedousersmall.png|thumb|Showing those fucking paladins how it&#039;s done.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These generate various effects - some bring lulz and some just [[fail]]. Experiment and find your own lulz. However, Blizzard, like most companies, disabled trade/chatroom from trial accounts, because of [[Chink]] gold farmers. A paid account is required for the best effort in [[lulz]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Set auto follow on new players; for whatever reason this really pisses people off.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join parties for dungeons as a healer and then leave about halfway through without saying anything. It works very well. Bonus points if you leave while your group is fighting the last boss of the dungeon.&lt;br /&gt;
# Lead a party into an instance and then randomly boot players from it.&lt;br /&gt;
# Start listing the name of movies with &amp;quot;Murloc&amp;quot; in the title like &#039;&#039;Indiana Murloc and The Temple of Doom&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;Debbie Does Murloc&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
# If Horde, start shit with people in Barrens chat. It&#039;s a non-PvP area filled with low level players, so they can&#039;t hurt you or retaliate. You can troll to your heart&#039;s content.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join battlegrounds at the lowest level possible, and start talking shit about how people have no fucking idea how to play the game.&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja any piece of loot. This will require a time investment, but if you steal the right piece of loot, you will ignite a shitstorm of drama that should keep you entertained for at least five minutes. You won&#039;t get banned as long you&#039;re not stupid enough to post loot rules in chat, GMs won&#039;t have anything to pin on you.&lt;br /&gt;
# Tell people what to do, and when they say you have no idea what you&#039;re on about, retaliate with &amp;quot;Your such a noob, I have five level 80&#039;s and three Death Knights, I know what I&#039;m talking about&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# When using the auction house, be sure to put up shit people need without buyout. Then pull it off the auction house before it sells - this is essentially the closest any WoW player gets to the transfer of goods between consenting individuals.&lt;br /&gt;
# Announce in trade chat that [name of player] is quitting WoW forever and is giving all their gold to the first person who whispers them!&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja a Bloody Apron as a rogue from a priest who doesn&#039;t need it but will whine to their guild to boot that rogue&lt;br /&gt;
# Link any item in trade chat, and state that the last person to link the same item will receive a large sum of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# When in dungeons as a hunter or rogue, use Misdirection or Tricks of the Trade on a healer and attack a large group of enemies.&lt;br /&gt;
# Play as a warlock and fear inside an instance, lulz and rage will ensue.&lt;br /&gt;
# Bitch loudly about how you can&#039;t spend achievement points.&lt;br /&gt;
# Spam trade chat with Anal then a spell, ability, quest, achievement etc &lt;br /&gt;

== Private Servers ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Private servers are available for poor people and unemployed losers that can&#039;t pay $15 per month for the retail version. The downside is that they are utterly glitched. It is not unusual that &#039;&amp;quot;instanced dungeons&amp;quot;&#039; (Special zones wherein most end game content can be found. They are fractioned into unique, temporary dimensions for each player, and can only be entered simultaneously by players with the help of Blizzard&#039;s &amp;quot;raid&amp;quot;- and &amp;quot;party&amp;quot; functions.) Private server providers compensate for their dysfunctional service by setting the experience point and item drop rate up to mega volume. There are two genres of private servers: &amp;quot;Funservers&amp;quot; where you instantly gain maximum level and can get the best gear from a vendor where you begin. Then there are the &amp;quot;blizzlike&amp;quot; servers which have a leveling rate that is five- or tenfolded. When you hit maximum level on a blizzlike server, you start roaming the world looking for some kind of glitch to gain treasure. After all, [[it&#039;s not a bug, it&#039;s a feature]]. Alternatively, you can [[lurk]] your private server&#039;s web forum to wait for the next official event. This consists of a private server admin summoning a boss which drops loot. If you get [[1337]] gear, you can brag to everyone in your guild, general chat and forum. Though, in the next day, the server and its data is probably gone forever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are pristine emulations of Blizzard&#039;s servers. However, they tend to vanish untraceable in the night. This is probably because they face Blizzard&#039;s judicial [[banhammer]]. [http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/05/blizzard-legal-targets-private-servers/ Blizzard targeted the fuck out of private servers. Oops.] There is also this cancerous blight known as &#039;&#039;Private&#039;&#039; Role-Playing servers. Filled with shitty admins and mind-crippled community, they are easy to troll while avoiding getting banned since their masterful devs only know how to edit posts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Je suis Nostalrius ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out of the mess of glitchy private servers out there, there is the occasional diamond in the rough. Nostalrius was that diamond.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike other private servers that were made to sidestep Blizzard&#039;s jewry, Nostalrius was meant to be a legacy server that provided a vanilla experience. Run by only thirty volunteers, they worked around the clock to maintain the server like it was an official server, and for a whole year, it was fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;What happen?&#039;&#039;&#039;: Blizzard caught wind that someone made a better service then them, and dropped the [[Lolsuit]] hard. Over a million accounts on the server were wiped, and the server was shut down. Another private server gone, so everything should be good right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, except for the fact that Nostalrius was a private legacy server, running in Vanilla WoW since new WoW has become a casualized mess. The server was created since Blizzard for whatever reason, refuses to create servers for nostalgia fags.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;youtube&amp;gt;XuOYmqSF6OQ&amp;lt;/youtube&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reaction over the shutdown was so massive, a civil war broke out in the toxic hellhole known as [http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1975197-Blizzard-shuts-down-Vanilla-Private-Server-Nostralius MMO-Champion], several Jewtubers (Including [[Jontron]] of all people) made angry rants, and another million players cancelled their future WoW subs. Great job Blizzard, that&#039;ll show those retards who just want a simple service that thirty people for free were providing.&lt;br /&gt;

A man wanted for marijuana possession fled the country. He continued playing &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; and so [[Blizzard Entertainment]] narced him out. He was caught and brought back to the USA. {{Archive|dvWCz|Read Here}}&lt;br /&gt;

{{spoilers|text=The grand twist in this game is that the real final boss is your own social life crumbling from neglect. Even the NPCs lead more exciting lives than you!!!}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to World of Warcraft (unironically shortened to &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot;), the digital wasteland where your dreams of heroism go to die and your patience is stretched thinner than the plot of a Michael Bay movie. Launched in 2004 by Blizzard Entertainment, WoW (as in WOW, my life went down the shitter) has managed to captivate millions of [[retards|players]] worldwide, mainly by trapping them in an [[real life|endless cycle of grinding and disappointment]]. With lore so convoluted and undecipherable, it would take eons for linguists around the world to actually understand what the actual fuck Chris Metzen snorted while &amp;quot;envisioning&amp;quot; this crap. It makes &#039;&#039;Silmarillion&#039;&#039; look like a five-minute bed time story specifically written for children with fragile x syndrome. Strap in, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the cesspool of Azeroth.&lt;br /&gt;

Graphics—where mountains resemble freshly baked loaves of bread, and trees look like they&#039;re made from crumpled-up gift wrap. It&#039;s like Blizzard handed the development team a box of crayons from 2004 and said, &amp;quot;Go nuts!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The water? Oh, that&#039;s a masterpiece—who doesn&#039;t love reflective puddles that look like shiny plastic wrap stretched over Jell-O? And let&#039;s not forget the iconic NPC faces. It&#039;s like they all went to the same plastic surgeon who only knows two expressions: &amp;quot;I&#039;m slightly concerned&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;I just smelled a fart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then there’s the foliage! Nothing screams &amp;quot;immersive realism&amp;quot; like flat, paper-thin grass that clips through your boots as if it&#039;s given up on life. It&#039;s as if Azeroth is secretly sponsored by a discount origami company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The real charm, though, is in the armor design. Why does a shoulder piece for a level 20 character look like they’re carrying an entire medieval dining set on each shoulder? Practicality clearly isn’t a concern when you&#039;re walking around with shoulder pads so massive, you need FAA clearance to enter Stormwind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#039;s not overlook those classic textures. WoW&#039;s cobblestones look like someone smeared a JPEG from 1999 across the ground and called it a day. And yet, somehow, these low-res visuals still demand a gaming PC from NASA to hit 60 FPS during a raid. Truly, a marvel of modern optimization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay: Grind Until You Die ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft’s gameplay is like being handed a spoon and told to dig a hole to the center of the Earth, only to fill it back up again once you’re halfway there—or maybe it’s more like trying to empty an ocean with a leaky bucket while a crab bites your toes. In this epic fantasy realm, you’ll embark on “world-saving” quests, also known as glorified errands, like “Collect 10 bear asses.” Yes, bear asses—because apparently, in Azeroth, bears have somehow evolved to grow multiple asses, and you’re the only hero brave enough to harvest them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These “quests” are repetitive fetch missions that could easily be outsourced to any halfway competent NPC, but no, you are the chosen one—the bearer of buckets, the picker-upper of random crap, the unpaid intern of the gods. Every click of your mouse is a solemn reminder that you’re shelling out a monthly fee to perform glorified virtual chores. It’s like paying someone to let you vacuum their house.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And while you’re out there scraping bear asses and picking up literally glowing mushrooms, the so-called villains of the game are just chilling. These are the big bads who supposedly threaten the entire world, yet they’re hanging out in their dungeons like they’re at a company retreat. Surrounded by armies of overly enthusiastic minions who are just… standing there, waiting for you to arrive. Honestly, you could probably knock on their front door, and they’d open it like, “Oh good, you’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for someone to kill us for years.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But hey, it’s not all bad. At least you get to enjoy the satisfaction of grinding for hours to earn a shiny new sword that looks exactly like your last sword, except now it glows. Progress, baby. Welcome to World of Warcraft: where the real hero isn’t you—it’s your ability to endure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Leveling:&#039;&#039;&#039; Experience the joy of killing the same boar 10,000 times to gain a single level. It&#039;s like Groundhog Day, but without the comedic relief.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Raiding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gather a group of socially awkward strangers to take down a boss that drops gear you don’t need. If the game mechanics don&#039;t kill you, your teammates&#039; incompetence will.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;PvP:&#039;&#039;&#039; Dive into the world of PvP where balance is a myth and every rogue is a stealthy demon sent straight from hell to ruin your day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Storyline: A Soap Opera on Steroids ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of WoW is a convoluted mess that makes Days of Our Lives look like a masterpiece of coherent storytelling. Every expansion brings more plot twists and lore retcons than you can shake a stick at.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Factions:&#039;&#039;&#039; The eternal struggle between the Horde and the Alliance is like watching two toddlers fight over a toy – entertaining for a moment, but ultimately pointless and exhausting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Villains:&#039;&#039;&#039; From the Lich King to Sylvanas Windrunner, every villain is a misunderstood anti-hero with daddy issues. It&#039;s like Blizzard hired a team of therapists to write the lore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Community: A Hive of Scum and Villainy ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The WoW community is a mixed bag of elitists, trolls, and those poor souls who genuinely enjoy the game. The general chat is a cesspool of spam, political arguments, and unsolicited advice on how to play your class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Elitists:&#039;&#039;&#039; These players think they are gods among mortals, looking down upon anyone who dares to enjoy the game casually.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trolls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The bane of any online community, trolls in WoW are a special breed. They thrive on chaos and your tears, and they won’t stop until they’ve made you regret logging in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Normal People:&#039;&#039;&#039; Normal people were just trying to enjoy the game, but eventually saw through the facade of pure shite and ultimately left the game a few expansions ago.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Updates: Or Lack Thereof ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard’s approach to updates can be summed up as “better late than never.” Each patch promises to fix what’s broken, but usually just introduces new ways to break the game. The developers&#039; motto seems to be, “If it ain&#039;t broke, we’ll fix that.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Microtransactions: Pay to Play, and Pay Some More ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Micro transactions wow.jpg|left|thumb|Buy, buy and buy some moar!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW has embraced microtransactions with the fervor of a televangelist asking for donations. Mounts, pets, character boosts – all available for the low, low price of your dignity. It’s like paying extra for the privilege of being disappointed faster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Main Idea: A Beautiful Disaster ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft is the ultimate exercise in masochism. It’s a beautifully designed trap that lures you in with promises of adventure and camaraderie, only to beat you down with endless grind and toxic community interactions. If you’re looking for a game that will suck away your time, money, and soul, then WoW is the perfect choice. Enjoy the ride to nowhere, because in the end, the real boss fight is against your own sense of self-worth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Races ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome, brave souls, to the sardonic safari of World of Warcraft’s races, where fantasy clichés meet the most ridiculous stereotypes the gaming world has to offer. Hold onto your keyboards as we dive into the wonderful, woeful world of Azeroth’s inhabitants. It’s time to see who really stands out… or in most cases, who stands way too far out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Alliance ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The so-called &amp;quot;noble&amp;quot; faction of World of Warcraft, where everyone is apparently too busy polishing their armor and patting themselves on the back to notice how insufferably pretentious they are. Gather &#039;round, dear reader, as we embark on a tour of this faction, which, quite frankly, could use a dose of humility and a reality check.&lt;br /&gt;

|The Humans. The race that defines &amp;quot;average&amp;quot; with all the enthusiasm of a damp sponge. They&#039;re the most generic fantasy fodder you can imagine: just your everyday medieval peasants with a king complex. Want to know what a human in WoW is like? Picture that guy in the office who thinks he&#039;s the main character in a dramatic novel. &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow dwarfs.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Dwarves: The Short Stack Stereotypes&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Dwarves are basically hobbits with a drinking problem and a miner’s helmet. Imagine a group of guys who think &amp;quot;tall&amp;quot; is a cardinal sin and that “work” should be synonymous with “beer.” They’re short, they’re stout, and they’ve got a chip on their shoulder the size of their ego. Great at mining, terrible at everything else, especially personal hygiene. In most high-fantasy works, these lilliputian, anthropomorphic, hairy Muppets are often compared to real-life [[Jews]] due to their obsession with treasure, their extreme xenophobia, and their consistent display of a God complex.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow gnomes.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Gnomes: The Tiny Tech Terrorists&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Gnomes are the tiny tech enthusiasts of Azeroth, always tinkering with gadgets and gizmos. Their advanced intellect is overshadowed only by their insufferable personalities. They&#039;re like that annoying kid in class who always had to be right, corrected the teacher, and/or constantly requested more homework. Playing a gnome means embracing your inner know-it-all and annoying everyone in sight with your [[sarcasm|superior intellect]].&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Night elf wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Night Elves: The Tree-Hugging Hippies&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Night Elves, the ultimate eco-warriors who spend their days frolicking in forests and talking to animals while embracing their inner homosexuality. Their obsession with nature is so extreme, you half expect them to chain themselves to a tree in protest of logging. With their &amp;quot;shadowmeld&amp;quot; ability, they can disappear into the shadows – perfect for avoiding responsibility and accountability, like the dirty hippies they are.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;

|The Draenei are the self-righteous space goats who crash-landed on Azeroth and decided to grace everyone with their moral superiority. With their glowing eyes and incessant preaching about the Light, they’re basically the Jehovah’s Witnesses of WoW. If you enjoy lecturing others on everything while virtue signaling and ignoring your own flaws, then the Draenei are your kindred spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Worgen wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Worgen: The Furry Fiasco&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Worgen are the werewolf wannabes who can’t decide if they want to be human or beast. They spend half their time transforming and the other half brooding about their curse, like a bipolar furry. Their duality is supposed to be intriguing and ezoteric, but ends up being as exciting as a cringey high school goth phase. Play a Worgen if you enjoy unnecessary drama, perpetual identity crisis and especially, if you&#039;re a sick fuck who likes to masturbate looking at Dragonkin porn on [[Rule 34]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== [[Afghanistan|The Horde]] ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ragtag group of misfits, outcasts, and supposed [[dipshits|badasses]] of the World of Warcraft universe. If ever there was a faction that embodies the chaotic energy of a middle school cafeteria, it&#039;s this one. Buckle up, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the murky depths of this so-called &amp;quot;[[cringe|faction of honor and strength]]&amp;quot; – with a heavy dose of &amp;quot;fuck off&amp;quot; and a side of unfiltered disdain, delivered by 40-year-old keyboard warrior manchildren who embody the internet tough guy meme perfectly.&lt;br /&gt;

|Orcs are the muscle-bound neanderthals of Azeroth who came here to literally kill, pillage, rape and destroy everything. Their solution to every problem? Smash it. They’re constantly raging about honor and glory, which is just a thinly veiled excuse to murder things. If you like the idea of playing a character that’s one-dimensional and as subtle as a sledgehammer, orcs are your perfect match. If you can&#039;t afford to play WoW, just paint a brick green and put some googly eyes on it—that&#039;s basically an orc.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow troll.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Trolls: The Laid-Back Psycopaths&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Trolls are the laid-back, rasta-loving lunatics who seem perpetually stoned, yet are always ready to murder you and eat your corpse, according to their [[special|unique]] culture. They have a &amp;quot;no worries&amp;quot; attitude about everything, even when being impaled by a sword. Their penchant for voodoo and eating long pig is charming in a sort of &amp;quot;we really don’t care&amp;quot; way. If you enjoy playing a character who’s chill but highly deranged, like [[sick fuck|Albert Fish]], trolls are your tribe.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow undead.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Forsaken: Zombie Angsty Teens&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Touch of the child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;5% forsaken child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Cannibalize&lt;br /&gt;
|The Forsaken are the edgy, undead rejects who are eternally angsty. Their leader, Sylvanas, is the queen of drama, and they follow her like loyal emo kids. They revel in decay and despair, making them the perfect choice for players who never outgrew their [[Hot Topic]] phase. If you like the idea of being an [[Avril Lavigne]] reject—always pissed off and dead inside and out—the Forsaken are your choice.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Tauren horde.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Tauren: The Bovine Philosophers&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Milk&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Leather&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Endurance&lt;br /&gt;
|This race is the ideal race for pseudo-intellectual [[neckbeard|neckbeards]]. Half of the Tauren userbase will have the word &amp;quot;moo&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;cow&amp;quot; in their names because they think they are clever shits and internet-funny, when in reality they need to cut off circulation to their dick and set themselves on fire. Tauren are the gentle giants who love to shout philosophical drivel about nature and balance. They’re basically cows with a conscience, who cry when they eat grass because plants also feel pain or some stupid shit like that. Their slow, deliberate way of speaking and moving is perfect for players who enjoy a leisurely pace aka mental retards. If you want to play a character that’s basically Donkey from Shrek, but a cow instead of a horse, the Tauren are for you.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;

|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Gay Affinity&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Sperm Torrent&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Arcane Resistance (to rape) &lt;br /&gt;
|Blood Elves are the vain, pretty closeted homosexuals and girls of Azeroth. Obsessed with their looks and their [[drugs|magical addiction]], they’re like the Kardashians of WoW. They’ve got a tragic backstory but are too busy checking their reflection to care. Play a Blood Elf if you enjoy being the center of attention and making everything about your narcissistic ass, while everyone else rolls their eyes so hard they can see through the back of their heads.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Horde goblins.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Goblins: Gnomes Meet Mad Max&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Cock&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Black Cock&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Best Deals Anywhere&lt;br /&gt;
|Basically, they are Gnomes, just painted green and given to the Horde, but it&#039;s the same shtick. These pint-sized green disasters are the epitome of greed and avarice. Goblins don’t just love gold, they worship it like a deity, sacrificing dignity and common sense at the altar of profit margins. Their entire society is a grotesque parody of capitalism on steroids, where the only thing more explosive than their volatile gadgets are their bullshit mumbo-jumbo Gangster wannabe personas.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Neutral Race ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because Blizzard was too lazy, they decided to add a race for both faction on the Alliance and the Horde, and made this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wow_panda.jpg|center|500px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those portly, panda-like creatures that stumbled into the World of Warcraft universe like a drunken uncle at a family reunion. Who thought it was a good idea to blend Kung Fu Panda with your epic fantasy world? Someone at Blizzard must have had a few too many drinks at the company party after watching a cartoon movie for kids?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So there you have it, the diverse (and dreadful) races of World of Warcraft. Each one is retarded in its own irritating way. Whatever flavor of crap you prefer, WoW has something to frustrate everyone. Enjoy your stay in Azeroth – you’ll need all the patience you can muster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Classes and Talents ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the World of Warcraft, where fantasy meets reality, and gamers everywhere embark on epic quests to save Azeroth, all while living in their parents’ basements. But let’s be brutally honest – not all heroes are created equal. In fact, some of these classes are as balanced as a seesaw with an elephant on one end. So let&#039;s tear apart each class with brutal honesty and a pinch of hatred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warrior.jpg|thumb|150px|A mighty [[faggot|warrior]], a projection of the [[you|player]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warrior: The Meatshield with Delusions of Grandeur&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warrior – the quintessential tank who believes that having a ton of armor and health somehow makes up for having the intelligence of a rock. Warriors charge into battle with the grace of a drunken elephant, swinging their oversized weapons while shouting incoherently. Their idea of strategy is to hit things harder and hope for the best. And let’s not forget their favorite pastime: complaining about not having enough heals, despite standing in every possible fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to scream &amp;quot;For the Horde!&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;For the Alliance!&amp;quot; while charging into battle.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re basically a glorified punching bag. Prepare for a lifetime of repair bills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arms:&#039;&#039;&#039; You use your fucking arms, spin like a ballerina and die constantly. &lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fury:&#039;&#039;&#039; Grants warriors to equip a giant dong in each hand, so they have an easier time being faggots. Remember to always use raging blowjob when you have 2 charges.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; A curious name for this, as these are the biggest AIDS on this planet. Nobody knows how to play them, so expect your group to fail every time this is the tank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow paladin.jpg|thumb|left|150px|[[sarcasm|A righteous Paladin]]. Notice how he walks in his own piss to convey superiority.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Paladin: The Self-Righteous Zealot&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Paladins are the holy knights of Azeroth, wielding both a sword and a Bible, ready to smite evil and preach about the Light. They come in three flavors: Tankadin, Healadin, and Retardin. Despite their shiny armor and holy auras, Paladins have an uncanny ability to be both invincible and utterly useless at the same time. Their primary skill? Spamming bubbles and judging everyone around them – both in and out of the game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to wear plate armor and heal yourself. Plus, bubble hearth!&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;ll spend half your time arguing about whether you&#039;re a healer or a tank. &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Spoiler:&#039;&#039; you&#039;re whatever your group needs, you walking [[tool|utility belt.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Retribution:&#039;&#039;&#039; If you choose this branch, just start over. The goal of this class is to get holy power, then spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, kill yourself, spend it, get holy power...&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; The tank of the game. Which is not saying much. Basically, whilst in a fight you get an extra five seconds of life. It&#039;s the kind of thing where you think you&#039;re getting the best of the best, but is really isn&#039;t much different. Only good for raids and tanking. Also enjoy your 1 million life points, and your zero real life points.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Absolutely useless. Can&#039;t heal. Can&#039;t do any damage. Needs to do damage to heal. The damage will suck, and your teammates will scream at you because you used an offensive move, so that you could use your defensive skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow hunter.jpg|thumb|150px|The hunter, the perpetual [[dumbass|dazed and confused]] DPS class that has no idea what to do.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Hunter: The AFK Champion&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hunters, the masters of ranged combat and pet management – or so they claim. In reality, Hunters are known for two things: pulling extra mobs and being perpetually AFK. Their pets have a mind of their own, often running off to aggro entire dungeons while the Hunter is busy texting their girlfriend. They also have a talent for misdirecting bosses onto healers, proving that the real hunt is for competent group members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can solo almost anything with your trusty pet. Also, feign death is the perfect &amp;quot;I didn&#039;t sign up for this&amp;quot; button.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Everyone assumes you’re just mashing buttons while watching Netflix. And let&#039;s be honest, you probably are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Beast Mastery:&#039;&#039;&#039; These hunters have wonderful sexual experiences with their pets, which motivates their pets to fight harder. Take this if you are a furry. Your pets can fight on their, so you don&#039;t even need to be in the game, which is a plus.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Marksmanship:&#039;&#039;&#039; Expect to do less than the other huntards if you choose this, as it absolutely blows the ass.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Survival:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOL TRAPS ARE ABSOLUTELY USELESS.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow priest.jpg|thumb|left|150px|A typical WoW priest realizing everyone knows his dark secret a.k.a kiddie fondling.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Priest: The Masochistic Medic&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Priests are the backbone of any raid group, providing healing and buffs to keep everyone alive. They come in two flavors: Holy and Shadow. Holy Priests are the altruistic healers who enjoy being yelled at for not healing fast enough, while Shadow Priests are the edgy teens who channel dark powers and constantly remind you of their &amp;quot;deep, dark pain.&amp;quot; Either way, playing a Priest means accepting that no one will appreciate you until you stop healing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re the group&#039;s lifeline. No priest, no raid. Instant ego boost.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Prepare to hear &amp;quot;heal plz&amp;quot; more times than you can count. And when things go south, it’s always your fault, faggot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Discipline:&#039;&#039;&#039; So I herd you like shielding. Now you can shield while you shield while you shield in a shield.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let me heal you child, just step into this dark basement.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Shadow:&#039;&#039;&#039; Years of raping kids has not paid off, as this is the weakest DPS class. Expect everyone to pass you in instances.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow mage.jpg|thumb|150px|Totally not a Wizard.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Mage: The Glass Cannon&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Mages are the epitome of high-risk, high-reward gameplay. They can dish out incredible damage with spells like Fireball and Frostbolt, but they have the survivability of a wet paper bag. Mages spend half their time nuking enemies from a safe distance and the other half running away screaming when anything gets too close. Their greatest contribution to any group? Free food and portals – because nothing says &amp;quot;master of the arcane&amp;quot; like being a glorified vending machine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Teleports and portals save you a fortune in travel costs. And who doesn&#039;t love setting things on fire?&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You’re about as durable as wet tissue paper. Get used to mobs wiping their ass with you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arcane:&#039;&#039;&#039; Maintain your mana. Don&#039;t move, ever. Do this and you will win the DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fire:&#039;&#039;&#039; Wait for Pyroblast to proc. Spam other abilities that don&#039;t do shit. Wait for Pyroblast.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE... AND ICE.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow shaman.jpg|thumb|left|150px|It&#039;s a known fact Shamans sweat cum.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Shaman: The Elemental Hipster&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Shamans are the spiritual guides who wield the powers of the elements – fire, water, air, and earth. They have the unique ability to drop totems that provide buffs or annoy everyone with unnecessary clutter. Shamans are often seen in the back, frantically trying to keep their totems from being destroyed while everyone else wonders what they actually do. They claim to bring balance to the group, but mostly they bring confusion and misplaced expectations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Totems, totems everywhere. Plus, you get to yell &amp;quot;It&#039;s clobberin&#039; time!&amp;quot; while dual-wielding.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Juggling totems is about as fun as herding cats. And you&#039;ll always be the &amp;quot;off-healer&amp;quot; in raids.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Enhancement:&#039;&#039;&#039; Similar to Beast Mastery hunter, except Shamans are specific and only do it with wolves. This is for retards who still want to do high DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Piss on everybody to heal them. Occasionally drops a magic dildo which floods the area with cum.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Elemental:&#039;&#039;&#039; These shamans are similar to Arcane Mages, except they can move earth with their dildos. Use lava.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow druid.jpg|thumb|150px|A druid realizing he [[cum|jizzed in his pants]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Druid: The Jack of All Trades, Master of None&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Druids are the ultimate utility class, able to shapeshift into various forms to fulfill different roles. They can tank, heal, and deal damage – all while looking like they got lost on their way to a nature documentary. However, their versatility comes at a cost: they’re mediocre at everything. Druids spend most of their time arguing about which form is best and why they’re not being appreciated for their &amp;quot;amazing flexibility.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can be a bear, a cat, a bird, and a tree—all in one day. Flexibility is your middle name.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Jack of all trades, master of none. And good luck keeping track of all your forms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Balance (BOOMKIN):&#039;&#039;&#039; YOU TURN INTO A GIANT SPACE-CHICKEN AND SHOOT FUCKING LASERS EVERYWHERE THAT DON&#039;T DO ANY DAMAGE&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Giant wooden dildo that heals people by throwing leaves at them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Feral:&#039;&#039;&#039; Either a cute kitten that requires everything to bleed or a giant motherfucking pedobear who is only useful as a meatshield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warlock.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Crazy, evil, socipaths that consider torture a hobby.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warlock: The Soul-Sucking Sociopath&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warlocks are the goth kids of Warcraft, summoning demons and casting curses while everyone else wonders if they’re secretly plotting to destroy the world. They revel in the misery of others, draining life and mana with glee. Warlocks can summon powerful pets, but they’re mostly known for dotting everything in sight and then laughing maniacally as their enemies wither away. Their main weakness? Explaining why they chose to play such an obviously evil class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Affliction:&#039;&#039;&#039; You specialize in giving AIDS and cancer to all fucking players while slowly sucking their cock.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Demonology:&#039;&#039;&#039; Same as Beast Mastery hunters, except warlocks prefer demons and necrophilia over animals.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Destruction:&#039;&#039;&#039; Set everything ablaze. Enjoy getting raped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow rogue.jpg|thumb|150px|Rogues do it from behind.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Rogue: The Backstabbing Bandit&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Rogues live in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to stab you in the back – much like your ex. These sneaky bastards are great at dealing massive damage, then vanishing before anyone can retaliate. Their playstyle revolves around stealth, deceit, and looting all the good stuff while everyone else is fighting. Rogues often remind us that trust issues aren&#039;t just for relationships.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Assassination:&#039;&#039;&#039; wanna-be-Ezio, but in reality, a shitty spec no one plays with, because why would you want to poison someone when you can sinister strike them?&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Combat:&#039;&#039;&#039; You sinister strike them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Subtlety:&#039;&#039;&#039; Subtlety rogues sneak upon people and give them surprise buttsecks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow death knight.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Notice the edgyness.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Death Knight: The Edgelord Extraordinaire&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Death Knights are the dark, brooding anti-heroes of Warcraft, resurrected to serve the Lich King and then deciding they’d rather just sulk around Azeroth. With abilities like Death Grip and Army of the Dead, they excel at making every fight as chaotic as possible. Their aesthetic screams &amp;quot;I shop exclusively at Hot Topic,&amp;quot; and their gameplay revolves around being as edgy and misunderstood as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Blood:&#039;&#039;&#039; GAY HOMOSEXUAL FAGGOT who can tank bosses. Can heal himself better than a raid-geared healer could, which of course makes them [[no|very balanced]] in PvP.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy doing less damage than the tank spec.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Unholy:&#039;&#039;&#039; As a good whore DK is, unholy DKs spread all the fucking diseases from syphilis to chlamydia to their opponents while buttfucking their ghouls. Completely useless. Does even less damage than Blood and Frost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow monk.jpg|thumb|150px|Guys, the Monk is drunk again...]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Monk: The Confused Contender&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Monks are the newest addition to the World of Warcraft class lineup, bringing martial arts and chi energy to the mix. They punch, kick, and heal their way through dungeons, all while trying to figure out why they were added to the game in the first place. Monks have a unique playstyle that involves rolling around and drinking mysterious brews, which leads many to wonder if they’re actually just drunken brawlers who stumbled into Azeroth by accident.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Brewmaster:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOLLLLLLL SO FUCKING DRUNK :PPPPPPPP THESE MOBS CANT EVEN HANDLE ME RIGHT NOW&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Mistweaver:&#039;&#039;&#039; Healing mist, so creative Blizzard. Oh, and some fucking orbs, too.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Windwalker:&#039;&#039;&#039; Typical wanna-be-JackieChan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Demon Hunter: The One-Trick Pony&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow demon hunter.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Notice the gun as most people imagine themselves acutally playing the [[DOOM]] guy, or is it just [[you]]?]]&lt;br /&gt;
Demon Hunters are the rockstars of WoW, with flashy abilities and a brooding backstory that screams &amp;quot;look at me.&amp;quot; They excel at doing one thing: dealing damage. With abilities like Eye Beam and Metamorphosis, they make sure everyone knows they’re the center of attention. However, their reliance on mobility and damage output makes them fragile and predictable. Once the novelty wears off, Demon Hunters are just edgy night elves with a superiority complex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Overall:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft classes are a testament to the game’s enduring appeal and its ability to attract both die-hard fans and relentless critics. Each class brings its own flavor of chaos, hilarity, and frustration to the game. Whether you love them or hate them, one thing’s for sure: WoW wouldn’t be the same without this motley crew of misfits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, next time you log in, take a moment to appreciate the absurdity and brilliance of the World of Warcraft classes. After all, it’s this delightful mess that keeps Azeroth spinning and the players coming back for more – even if it’s just to complain about how much they hate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Expansions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Burning Crusade (BC)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Burning crusade satire image.jpg|thumb|right|Grind, grind, grind, grind and grind, dipshits.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, The Burning Crusade—the first expansion for World of Warcraft, and arguably the game equivalent of a long, excruciating dentist appointment. Released in 2007, this expansion promised to bring thrilling new content and exciting adventures. What it delivered, however, was a cluster of frustration, recycled content, and enough player tears to fill the Great Sea. Strap in, because we&#039;re diving headfirst into this dumpster fire with all the love and hatred it deserves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: A Masterclass in Overcomplication&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, decided that the lore needed to be more convoluted than a soap opera. Enter the shattered world of Outland, where Illidan Stormrage, the original emo night elf, waits with a scowl that could rival your most disgruntled ex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember that badass anti-hero from Warcraft III? Well, prepare to see him reduced to a raid boss who gets beaten like a piñata. He&#039;s no longer the “You are not prepared!” legend, but rather the “Oh, you’re still here?” side note.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Blood Elves and Draenei:&#039;&#039;&#039; Two new races introduced to pad out the player base and offer more cringe-worthy RP possibilities. Blood Elves—because everyone wanted to play an elf with a superiority complex—and Draenei, the space goats who crash-landed into Azeroth with zero navigational skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Like a Rusty Gear&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought vanilla WoW had its grindy moments, The Burning Crusade takes it to a whole new level. Enjoy endless grinding for attunements, resist gear, and the eternal hell of daily quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Attunements:&#039;&#039;&#039; Want to raid? Be prepared to sell your soul for attunements that require you to jump through more hoops than a circus poodle. Let’s make this clear—no one, and I mean NO ONE, enjoys grinding for weeks just to step foot in a raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Reputation Grinding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who doesn’t love spending countless hours doing repetitive tasks for factions that barely remember your name? Get ready to kill the same mobs over and over again in a mind-numbing loop of despair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying Mounts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sure, they sound cool until you realize you’ll need to grind gold like a medieval peasant to afford one. The only thing more painful than getting your first flying mount is the repair bill after you crash it into the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039; Dungeons and Raids: Recycled Boredom &#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard must have really loved recycling because The Burning Crusade dungeons and raids feel like they were pulled straight out of the developer’s trash bin of ideas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Karazhan:&#039;&#039;&#039; A 10-man raid where you spend more time listening to ghostly opera performances than actually fighting bosses. The real challenge is staying awake through the endless trash mobs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep:&#039;&#039;&#039; Exciting in theory, monotonous in practice. Nothing says fun like fighting the same faceless, fish-headed murloc wannabes and robot chickens over and over again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Magtheridon’s Lair:&#039;&#039;&#039; Imagine Onyxia, but less interesting and with more cubes to click. Clicking cubes—because that&#039;s what we all signed up for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Wastelands of Despair&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outland is a visually striking yet soul-sucking expanse of zones designed to test your patience and willingness to live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Hellfire Peninsula:&#039;&#039;&#039; Red, barren, and filled with boars on steroids. It’s as if Blizzard took Durotar, painted it red, and called it a day. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Zangarmarsh:&#039;&#039;&#039; Mushrooms, mushrooms everywhere. If you love fungi and humidity, this zone is your damp dream. Otherwise, it’s just a swampy mess that’s more confusing than enchanting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Nagrand:&#039;&#039;&#039; The one saving grace, because even Blizzard couldn’t mess up floating islands and green fields. But after the 100th kill quest, even Nagrand loses its charm. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Burning Disappointment&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039; is the expansion that promised the moon and delivered a moldy cheese wheel. It’s a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and inject it with enough tedium, frustration, and sheer grinding hell to make players question their life choices. If you enjoy masochism, by all means, dive into this burning wreck. For everyone else, just remember: you were not prepared—for this level of disappointment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, here’s to &#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039;—the expansion that set the bar low and somehow managed to limbo under it. Bravo, Blizzard, bravo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Wrath Of The Lich King (WOTLK)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wrath of the lich king image.jpg|thumb|No, the server is not down, you&#039;re just lagging.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Wrath of the Lich King&#039;&#039;, the second expansion for World of Warcraft, is often hailed as one of the greatest expansions in MMO history. But let&#039;s be real – it&#039;s just another glorified excuse for Blizzard to squeeze more money out of their devoted player base. Grab your Frostmourne, kids, because we&#039;re about to hack and slash our way through the icy, overrated mess that is Northrend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Arthas, Arthas, Arthas&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, Arthas Menethil, the golden boy turned emo villain. If you thought his fall from grace in Warcraft III was melodramatic, wait until you see this expansion. The entire storyline revolves around this angsty prince who decided the best way to cope with his daddy issues was to plunge a sword into his heart and raise an undead army. Seriously, who hurt you, Arthas?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Boring Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; The quests are as repetitive as they come. &amp;quot;Go here, kill that, bring me 10 ghoul eyeballs.&amp;quot; The creativity is truly staggering.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pathetic Attempts at Drama:&#039;&#039;&#039; Every other quest tries to make you feel some sort of way about the tragic plight of Northrend. But let&#039;s be honest, the only tragedy here is the time you&#039;ll waste trying to care.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Frozen Wasteland of Tediousness&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Northrend – a continent so cold and dreary, it makes your heart freeze over. The zones are designed to be as inhospitable as possible, and not in a challenging way – just in a &amp;quot;why am I even here?&amp;quot; way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Borean Tundra vs. Howling Fjord:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard couldn&#039;t decide between two equally bland starting zones, so they gave us both. Spoiler alert: they both suck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grizzly Hills:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only redeeming quality here is the music. Otherwise, it&#039;s just another forest filled with things that want to kill you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home of the Lich King and the most anticlimactic endgame zone. It’s as if Blizzard threw every gothic trope into a blender and poured out this abomination.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: The Definition of Overhyped&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wrath of the Lich King is known for its dungeons and raids. But let’s call them what they really are: overly long, unimaginative time sinks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Naxxramas:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Let&#039;s recycle old content and call it nostalgia!&amp;quot; Brilliant idea, Blizzard. It&#039;s not like we’ve been here before or anything.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Ulduar:&#039;&#039;&#039; Okay, Ulduar was actually decent, but do we really need a raid that feels longer than a Tolkien novel?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trial of the Crusader:&#039;&#039;&#039; A single room raid. Need I say more?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown Citadel:&#039;&#039;&#039; The grand finale! Except the only thing grand about it is the amount of bugs and glitches you&#039;ll encounter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;PvP: Frostbitten Failures&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP in Wrath is like trying to have a snowball fight with icicles – painful and pointless. Wintergrasp, the so-called crown jewel of world PvP, is a laggy, chaotic mess where strategy goes to die.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Arena Seasons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when balance was a thing? Neither do we.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Battlegrounds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy the same old battlegrounds with a fresh coat of frost. Hooray for mediocrity!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Cold, Hard Truth&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Wrath of the Lich King is the expansion that brought us Northrend – a frozen hellscape filled with recycled content, tedious quests, and the whiniest villain in WoW history. If masochism is your thing, then by all means, dive into this glacier of disappointment. But don’t say we didn’t warn you – the only thing colder than the Lich King&#039;s heart is the feeling you’ll get when you realize how much time you’ve wasted. Enjoy the frostbite!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Cataclysm (Cata)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Cataclysm box art.png|thumb|Oh no, it&#039;s Deathwing!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;Cataclysm&#039;&#039;, the third expansion for World of Warcraft, where Blizzard Entertainment decided it was a great idea to take a sledgehammer to Azeroth and call it &amp;quot;content.&amp;quot; Released in 2010, this expansion is the gaming equivalent of inviting a bull into a china shop and then blaming the china for being too fragile. Buckle up, because we’re diving headfirst into this catastrophe with all the love and tenderness of a rhino in a rage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Apocalypse Now (But Make It Boring)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard&#039;s big idea for Cataclysm was to bring back Deathwing, a dragon so angry he makes your high school gym teacher look like Mr. Rogers. His grand entrance involved tearing the world apart because, apparently, dragon therapy wasn’t an option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Deathwing&#039;s Return:&#039;&#039;&#039; He’s back, he’s big, and he’s… really angry about something. Who cares why? Just know that he&#039;s here to wreck your favorite zones and make leveling even more tedious.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Changes:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard thought it would be fun to uproot your favorite nostalgic zones and replace them with watery graves and fiery wastelands. Enjoy questing in the once-beautiful Barrens, now with 100% more existential dread.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Rubble&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced several new gameplay mechanics, each one more exasperating than the last. If you thought leveling was a grind before, just wait until you try to make sense of this mess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Thrilling locales like Vashj&#039;ir, where you get to experience the joy of underwater combat, because fighting in three dimensions wasn’t enough of a headache already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Revised Old Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Say goodbye to the comforting familiarity of your favorite zones. Blizzard’s renovation project involved replacing everything you loved with lava, water, and more hostile NPCs. Thanks, Deathwing!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying in Azeroth:&#039;&#039;&#039; Finally, you can fly in the old world! Oh, wait, that just means you get to see the carnage from a bird’s eye view. Neat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Classes and Races: Tweaks Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced two new races: Worgen and Goblins. Because what WoW really needed was more furries and comic relief characters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Worgen:&#039;&#039;&#039; Ever wanted to play as a werewolf? No? Too bad. Now you can experience the joy of transforming into a hairy beast every time you get mildly annoyed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Goblins:&#039;&#039;&#039; These little green bundles of greed bring explosive fun and mind-numbing quests. Their starting zone is essentially a tutorial in how to blow things up and laugh about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: More Pain, Less Gain&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard really outdid themselves with Cataclysm’s dungeons and raids, creating content so grueling you’ll wish for the sweet release of death – or at least a decent loot drop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heroic Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Cataclysm’s dungeons were harder than trying to explain quantum physics to a toddler. Enjoy wiping repeatedly because apparently, fun is for the weak.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Raids:&#039;&#039;&#039; Think you’re tough? Cataclysm’s raids will disabuse you of that notion faster than you can say “gear check.” Welcome to the world of endless grinding and frustration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Chorus of Groans&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to Cataclysm was a symphony of sighs and groans, mixed with the occasional rage-quit. Blizzard’s grand experiment in world-breaking was met with all the enthusiasm of a root canal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Veteran Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Long-time players watched in horror as their beloved game was dismantled and rebuilt into something unrecognizable. Their feedback ranged from “What were they thinking?” to “Please, make it stop.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Newcomers were left bewildered, wondering if the pre-Cataclysm Azeroth was some kind of myth. Spoiler: It was real, and it was better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: The Cataclysmic Aftermath&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm will go down in history as the expansion that tried too hard and fell flat on its face. It’s a testament to what happens when developers decide to fix what wasn’t broken and break everything else in the process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re in the mood for a nostalgic trip through Azeroth’s most misguided renovation project, by all means, dive into Cataclysm. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you. Enjoy the carnage, and remember: sometimes, the best change is no change at all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Mists Of Pandaria (MOP)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Mists of pandaria box art.jpg|thumb|God help us all!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the World of Warcraft expansion that brought us pandas, beer, and an avalanche of disappointment. This 2012 masterpiece from Blizzard Entertainment was the epitome of &amp;quot;What were they thinking?&amp;quot; Let&#039;s dive into this hilarious, hate-filled critique of the expansion that turned Azeroth into a cuddly, bamboo-filled nightmare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandas: A Joke Gone Too Far&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Blizzard announced pandas as a playable race, it felt like the developers had thrown in the towel and decided to let their kids take over. Seriously, pandas? The epitome of laziness and the ultimate pacifists? Because nothing screams &amp;quot;epic fantasy&amp;quot; like a bunch of chubby bears who&#039;d rather munch on bamboo than engage in mortal combat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Kung Fu Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; is what happens when you binge-watch too many kung fu movies and decide to turn your MMORPG into a parody. The entire narrative revolves around the Pandaren, their idyllic, untouched continent, and the age-old battle between beer bellies and actual threats. It&#039;s like someone watched &#039;&#039;Kung Fu Panda&#039;&#039; and thought, &amp;quot;Yeah, let&#039;s make that our next billion-dollar expansion.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Bamboo Forest&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought previous expansions were grindy, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; said, &amp;quot;Hold my beer!&amp;quot; From endless dailies to rep grinds that made you question your life choices, this expansion was a masterclass in how to stretch minimal content over a maximum timeframe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Dailies Galore:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when you could log in and have fun? &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; introduced a plethora of daily quests that felt more like chores than adventures. Congratulations, you’ve been promoted to Azeroth’s errand boy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Rep Grinds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing says &amp;quot;engaging gameplay&amp;quot; like grinding reputation for factions that offer slightly better gear and cosmetic mounts. Who needs fun when you have repetitive tasks?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Zones: A Tourist Trap&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The zones in Pandaria are beautiful, vibrant, and about as deep as a kiddie pool. Sure, they&#039;re pretty to look at, but once you scratch the surface, you realize there’s about as much substance as a Hollywood blockbuster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Jade Forest:&#039;&#039;&#039; A zone so lush and green, you might forget you’re supposed to be slaying monsters and not on a nature hike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Valley of the Four Winds:&#039;&#039;&#039; The place where you can really get in touch with your inner farmer. Plowing fields and growing crops – because that’s what we signed up for in an MMORPG.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Kun-Lai Summit:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home to the great and wise Pandaren monks, who will bore you to death with their endless platitudes and fetch quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: Filler Content&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The raids and dungeons in &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; were a mixed bag of mediocrity. Some were decent, while others felt like recycled content thrown in to keep us busy while Blizzard figured out their next move.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mogu&#039;shan Vaults:&#039;&#039;&#039; A raid so forgettable, even the bosses seemed to lack enthusiasm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heart of Fear:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing strikes terror into the hearts of players like a raid that feels like a chore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Terrace of Endless Spring:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only thing endless here is the feeling of tedium as you slog through another uninspired raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Monk Class: Balance? What&#039;s That?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monks, the new class introduced in this expansion, were a lesson in imbalance. One minute you&#039;re a god among men, the next you&#039;re wondering if you accidentally unequipped all your gear. The class design swung wildly from overpowered to useless, leaving players dizzy and frustrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Pandaren Parody&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; will go down in history as the expansion that took itself way too seriously while simultaneously being a joke. It’s a love letter to all things ridiculous, a blend of gorgeous visuals and mind-numbing gameplay, and a testament to Blizzard&#039;s willingness to jump the shark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So here’s to you, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the expansion that gave us pandas, plowing fields, and a reason to seriously consider taking up a new hobby. If nothing else, you made us appreciate the good old days of WoW, when we were fighting actual threats and not getting lost in the bamboo forest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the most laughable chapter in &#039;&#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;&#039; history!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Warlords Of Draenor (WOD)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wod_box_art.jpg|thumb|Rage incarnate.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor (WoD)&#039;&#039;&#039;, the expansion that Blizzard Entertainment generously bestowed upon the World of Warcraft community in 2014. In their infinite wisdom, Blizzard decided that players didn’t need new content as much as they needed an expansion that felt like a hastily cobbled together fever dream. Strap in, dear reader, as we dive headfirst into this dumpster fire of an expansion, brimming with frustration, disappointment, and the faint scent of creative bankruptcy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Time Travel Nonsense&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remember when &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; had coherent storytelling? WoD laughs in the face of logic and consistency, tossing players into an alternate timeline where everything is somehow both familiar and utterly nonsensical. It’s like a bad fan fiction that somehow got greenlit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grommash Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Our favorite orc is back, but in an alternate universe where he’s even more insufferable. Because why not double down on a character nobody really wanted to see again?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrosh Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Yes, Garrosh is here too, because we all needed more of his daddy issues and genocidal tendencies. Thanks, Blizzard, for giving us more of what we never asked for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Alternate Draenor:&#039;&#039;&#039; A world that’s essentially Outland, but prettier and more pointless. It’s like paying for a remastered version of a game you never liked in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Garrisons Galore&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought you were signing up for epic battles and immersive quests, think again. WoD offers you the joy of micromanaging your very own garrison, because who wouldn’t want to play World of Warcraft: SimCity Edition?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrisons:&#039;&#039;&#039; A brilliant idea, executed with the finesse of a toddler with finger paint. You get to spend hours gathering resources, sending followers on missions, and watching paint dry. Thrilling!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Follower Missions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who needs actual gameplay when you can send NPCs to do everything for you? It’s like being the middle manager of Azeroth, minus the paycheck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Content Drought:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard promised a river of content, but all we got was a trickle. By the time you’re done with your garrison chores, you’ll realize there’s nothing else to do. It’s like they ran out of ideas and just hoped nobody would notice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: The Saving Grace&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even in this sea of mediocrity, there are a few islands of decency. The raids and dungeons in WoD are surprisingly well-designed, which only highlights how much better the expansion could have been if Blizzard had actually tried.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Highmaul:&#039;&#039;&#039; A decent raid that almost makes you forget the garbage fire outside. Almost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Blackrock Foundry:&#039;&#039;&#039; Another solid raid, proving that the dungeon design team is the only one that didn’t take an extended coffee break during development.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Lipstick on a Pig&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoD looks and sounds beautiful, which is the cruelest irony of all. It’s like putting a fresh coat of paint on a sinking ship. Sure, it’s pretty, but you’re still going down with the wreck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gorgeous environments and character models that make you wish there was more to do in this pretty, empty world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic scores that make you feel like you’re about to embark on a grand adventure, only to realize you’re just going back to your garrison to collect more herbs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Rage and Despair&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The player base’s reaction to WoD can best be described as a collective scream into the void. Forums were ablaze with complaints, and subscriber numbers plummeted faster than Blizzard’s standards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; WoD managed to drive away millions of players, proving that not even brand loyalty can save a bad expansion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Forums:&#039;&#039;&#039; A hotbed of rage, where every thread is a monument to Blizzard’s monumental screw-up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Obvious Conclusion: An Expansion Best Forgotten&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Warlords of Draenor is a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and turn it into a chore simulator. It’s a cautionary tale for game developers everywhere: don’t take your player base for granted, or you might just end up with a steaming pile of disappointment like WoD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re a masochist who enjoys being let down, by all means, dive into &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039;. For everyone else, steer clear and hope Blizzard learned their lesson.&lt;br /&gt;

===Legion [LEG]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Legion box art.jpg|thumb|right|Welcome to Legion. Don&#039;t forget to do your daily quests, noob.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Legion&#039;&#039;&#039;, the World of Warcraft expansion that promised to be the savior of Azeroth but ended up being the equivalent of inviting your in-laws for a weekend and them never leaving. Released in 2016, Legion is Blizzard’s attempt to milk the nostalgia of the Burning Crusade while introducing mechanics that make you want to smash your keyboard into a thousand pieces. Let&#039;s dive into this trainwreck, shall we?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Rehashing the Rehashed&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, the storyline! What a masterpiece of recycled plots and half-baked ideas. Legion brings back our old pal, the Burning Legion, because apparently, Blizzard ran out of new enemies and decided that the third time&#039;s the charm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan&#039;s Redemption:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who knew the angsty, blind anti-hero with a god complex needed redemption? Blizzard, that’s who. Illidan’s return is like finding out your ex is back in town and just as insufferable as ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Artifact Weapons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who needs originality when you can just give everyone a shiny weapon with the same backstory: &amp;quot;This weapon is super important, just trust us.&amp;quot; Oh, and don’t forget to grind endlessly to make it marginally better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Class Halls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The lazy man&#039;s Garrisons, where you can pretend to be important while sending minions on missions because actually playing the game is too mainstream.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: A Grind by Any Other Name&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion’s gameplay loop is like a hamster wheel designed by someone who hates hamsters. It&#039;s an endless cycle of grinding that leaves you wondering why you didn’t just take up knitting instead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; A fantastic way to disguise daily quests by making you travel longer distances for the same mundane tasks. Blizzard’s way of saying, “We know you love busywork.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mythic+ Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Perfect for those who enjoy the sensation of banging their head against a brick wall. Higher keys don’t mean more fun, just more chances for your group to screw up spectacularly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Legendaries:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[Jesus|RNG-esus]] has blessed us with a system where you either get an item that makes you a god or one that’s about as useful as a chocolate teapot. Praise be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Credit where it’s due, the visuals and sound in Legion are top-notch. It’s just a shame they’re wasted on content that makes you want to gouge your eyes out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Beautifully designed and visually stunning, the zones of Legion are the perfect backdrop for your suffering. Enjoy the sights as you contemplate your life choices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic and immersive, the soundtrack is a symphony of sorrow and regret, perfectly capturing the essence of your Legion experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Love to Hate It&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community&#039;s reaction to Legion has been a rollercoaster of emotions, mostly ranging from blind rage to begrudging acceptance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Haters:&#039;&#039;&#039; These folks believe Blizzard should’ve let the Burning Legion stay dead. Their forums posts are masterpieces of vitriol, each more scathing than the last.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Fanboys:&#039;&#039;&#039; Die-hard fans who defend Legion with the fervor of a zealot, claiming that “at least it’s better than Warlords of Draenor.” High praise indeed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;In The End: A Love-Hate Relationship&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion is the expansion that everyone loves to hate. It’s a mishmash of good ideas executed poorly, wrapped in a shiny package of nostalgia. It’s like Blizzard took a look at their greatest hits, remixed them, and then dropped the mic with a smug grin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re into endless grinding, recycled villains, and RNG loot that makes you question your sanity, then Legion is the expansion for you. Dive in, and enjoy the exquisite pain that only a Blizzard game can deliver. Cheers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Battle For Azeroth [BFA]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Battle for azeroth.jpg|thumb|Welcome to BFA. Your full time job.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Battle For Azeroth&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Battle for Azeroth (BFA), the expansion where Blizzard Entertainment decided to take everything we loved about World of Warcraft and throw it into a blender, hit puree, and serve it to us with a smile. Released in 2018, BFA promised epic faction warfare but delivered a steaming pile of mediocrity wrapped in grind and frustration. So, grab your popcorn and brace yourself for a brutally honest, hilariously scathing telling of one of the most hated expansions in WoW history.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: The Soap Opera Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, thought we needed more faction drama. The result? A storyline that makes daytime soap operas look like Shakespearean masterpieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Burning of Teldrassil:&#039;&#039;&#039; Nothing says &amp;quot;fun&amp;quot; like watching a beloved world tree go up in flames. Sylvanas goes full pyromaniac, and we’re supposed to feel… what? Empathy? Rage? Mostly, we just felt the urge to log out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Siege of Lordaeron:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sylvanas, now a discount Saturday morning cartoon villain, decides to play the “let’s gas everyone” card. It&#039;s like watching Wile E. Coyote with a more twisted sense of humor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Faction Pride:&#039;&#039;&#039; The so-called faction pride storyline was as forced as a toddler’s apology. Alliance vs. Horde? More like Player vs. Will to Live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: The Grind of a Lifetime&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039; was bad with its garrison chores, Battle for Azeroth takes grinding to a new level of hell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Azerite Armor:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let’s talk about the system that everyone loves to hate. Unlocking traits on Azerite gear was about as fun as a dental visit. Oh, joy, more grinding for RNG rewards!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Island Expeditions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Procedurally generated boredom at its finest. Collect Azerite! Fight NPCs! Repeat ad nauseam. They were supposed to be exciting, but were about as thrilling as watching paint dry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Warfronts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s answer to “What if we made PvE even more mind-numbing?” Warfronts were like playing a game of Risk, but with all the strategic depth of tic-tac-toe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd Syndrome&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To give credit where it’s due, the art team at Blizzard deserves a medal for polishing this turd. The zones are beautiful, the music is epic, and the cinematics are top-notch. But you know what they say, you can’t polish a turd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Stunning landscapes, rich details, and breathtaking visuals that make you wonder why the gameplay couldn’t match the graphics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sweeping scores that make you feel like you’re on an epic quest… until you remember you’re grinding Azerite in a repetitive, soul-crushing loop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Dumpster Fire&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to BFA can be summed up in one word: dumpster fire. Forums were ablaze with outrage, social media was a battleground of discontent, and even the most loyal fans found themselves questioning Blizzard’s sanity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; Players unsubscribed faster than rats fleeing a sinking ship. Blizzard’s answer? More grinding, because that’ll fix it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Feedback:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s response to feedback was like watching a deaf mime perform: utterly useless and slightly painful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Reality: An Epic Fail&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039; will go down in history as a masterclass in how not to design a game expansion. From the disastrous storyline to the mind-numbing grind, BFA managed to disappoint on every conceivable level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re looking for an expansion that promises epic warfare but delivers endless frustration, BFA is your ticket to misery. Here’s to hoping the next expansion is better – it can’t possibly be worse, right? Right!?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the unintentional comedy and the epic anti-climax that is &#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039;. May it rest in pieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Guilds ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Warcraft Mutant Cosplay.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Your typical &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; player. Note the mutated jawline and [[cosplay]] dress.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like every MMORPG, in order to see the vast majority of the game, players will need to join a guild. The purpose of a guild is to enable the guild master and his best friends to get run through the high level dungeons so they can gear up their characters, so they can go into the next dungeon and get the next set of gear for themselves. It is the responsibility of the other guild members to somehow get their own gear so they can help keep their online masters clothed in the most fashionable of equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Guilds tend to be a great source of drama, especially when epic loots are involved. Due to this, guilds seem to form up and dissolve every second.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, guilds go batshit insane clearing bosses, finishing content faster than Blizzard can hammer out. Butthurt about having to produce content while basement dwellers fork out $15 a month, Blizzard, being the Jews that they are, decided it was more cost effective and lulz inducing to drop the Banhammer on such guilds ([http://web.archive.org/web/1/http://www.wow.com/2010/02/04/ensidia-temporarily-banned-for-exploits/ 2010]) than create more content. Naturally, much drama ensued on the forums and many members threatened to stop their $15 a month subscription if their rightful loot was given back and ban&#039;s were lifted. Blizzard&#039;s response was the Banhammer to many other instigators of drama, solving many server capacity problems. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard is also strongly opposed to debugging software, and when glitches and exploits are reported they will drop the Banhammer rather than fix anything or admit their mistake. Whenever a Guild gets a &amp;quot;World First Kill&amp;quot;, they will be swiftly banned for awareness of numerous exploits. This is how the game is beta tested. This will happen repeatedly until the next 10 patches come out and no one can remember anything about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on RP (Roleplaying) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You might encounter more [[Shit nobody cares about|strict laws]] over guild names and their contents on roleplaying realms such as [[Argent Dawn (EU)]], where your guild name is forced to be IC ([[Serious Business|In character]]), otherwise the [[Nazis|Game Masters]] would not hesistate to punish you if [[Homosexuals|some player(s)]] report you. However, you might also notice some exceptional guilds on this merciless realm which shine like bright sun over all the darkness. A good example would be [[Argent_Dawn_(EU)#DEFNDERS_OF_HEV_RP|DEFNDERS OF HEV RP]]. These brave warriors are led by General Shikoradoro and his comrades; Röman, Philippson, [[Basement-dweller|Mythrios]] and countless number of other &#039;&#039;Doro&#039;&#039; members. They are type of guys that you will fucking hate and love at same time. They speak their own language called &amp;quot;Elwynnian&amp;quot; which is believed to be a dialect of Mongolian, but it&#039;s still quite different and unique. They mainly operate in wild Elwynn Forest, particularly in Stormwind City and Goldshire. Quite interdasting bunch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another interdasting example from the same realm would be The Stormguard. The Stormguard is a military roleplaying guild that basically does nothing but to walk around stormwind with big ass armor on their boosted characters. Led by a female character that has serious sexual issues and believes she&#039;s a man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvP (Player versus Player) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP guilds are generally regarded as badass and cool, but extraordinary types are present.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dara Mactire&#039;&#039;&#039;, or however the fuck it&#039;s spelled is a way too serious PvP guild located on the US realm Darkspear. I think, well they are everywhere now even on the EU. They are a bunch of nerds that think it&#039;s cool to add in way too serious dubstep intros with serious editing skills that form the word: Dara Mactire. Funnily, it was nothing until Swifty joined it and made it famous because of his fanboys wanting to be in the same guild as their hero. Yet, nobody even know who their fucking guild leader is as hes an ungreatful twat getting his guild famous without even making any kind of video to thank Swifty for promoting him from a loser to a even greater loser.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;A Bunch of Gankers&#039;&#039;&#039;, formerly called The Holy Half deads, is a bunch of people that never knew how to PvP yet wanting to believe they could, gathered in one single guild. So therefore it&#039;s an army of noobs that work like a zerg unit. Overwhelming their enemies by pure numbers. Their guild leader, whose name is Fail. Has been kicked out of several servers before, as they now are somewhere only higher powers knows. They will probably keep on changing realm as they get asskicked by every single pvp orientated guilds on each server.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvE (Player versus Environment) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This type of guilds are probably most common type of guilds you can find in any fucking realm. They are usually underestimated by PvPers and viewed as [[truth|pussies, losers, nerds and such]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Ensidia&#039;&#039;&#039;, or something, they change name the same often as normal people change their underwear. Is a guild filled of PvE noobs that are way too bad to even be serious and competitive PvPers so they try to look skilled and hardcore by focusing nobody else links to skill: PvElol. Their guild leader, Kungen, meaning king in Swedish has never ever even killed a player from the opposing faction. Not that he would be able too if he saw one, as mentioned, thats why he choose PvE. Because it&#039;s not enough to kill million fucking NPCs to reach the maximum level. They want to torment themselves by questing and doing worthless raids even more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Official WoW Forums ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with most good [[MMORPG]]s, &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; has its own public forums. Subscribers can discuss tactics, roleplay, offer up item trades and sales, and of course, bitch and moan about how the game sucks and everyone should be playing &#039;&#039;[[Warhammer]]&#039;&#039; instead. (Which they SHOULD be.) Chuck Norris jokes, horrifying roleplay, &amp;quot;hug a class&amp;quot; posts, trolling posts, worthless bug reports, really STUPID suggestions for future patches... All that and a bag of chips is what you&#039;ll find within these hallowed walls.&lt;br /&gt;

{{morphquote|AICBL|background-color: white; width:65%; height:auto|font-weight: bold;&lt;br /&gt;
|We are aware of the concerns regarding situations where players are unable to zone into an instance due to an instance limit being hit, which results in a message stating that additional instances cannot be launched. This limit was implemented as a short-term solution to preserve the gameplay for players who are already in an instance and to prevent numerous issues that can happen when too many instances are active at the same time, but we are currently working on better solutions to ensure that players can get into instances when they want to.&lt;br /&gt;
|Bornakk, a concerned GM&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|Bump. Please fix this. It&#039;s maddening and very, very frustrating. Sometimes I can get in an instance within a couple minutes and others it will take over an hour.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m okay with performance scaling - but, at least introduce a queue so we know how long it will be and don&#039;t have to keep going at the portal like a retarded dog jumping into a glass door.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some time after the release of the second expansion pack (see above), a massive &amp;quot;bug&amp;quot; was discovered in &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; wherein people could no longer gain their epic lewts. When a player tries to enter a dungeon portal, a large message will flash on their screen stating &amp;quot;Additional instances cannot be launched, please try again later&amp;quot;. Most people took great offense to this as they figured since they were giving Blizzard their money, they should be entitled to do what they want when they want how they want. The truth of the matter is that Blizzard&#039;s hardware just can&#039;t keep up with all the people &amp;quot;raiding&amp;quot; at the same time. Naturally, people just don&#039;t want to believe this due to the fact that Blizzard takes in at least $165,000,000 USD a month in revenue. ($15.00/month x 11 million people.) What people don&#039;t seem to realize is that Blizzard also wants people to GO OUTSIDE AND GET SOME FRESH AIR YOU FUCKING LOSERS.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== [[Shit|Blizzcon]], Also Where Nobody Gets Laid ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally WoW players will leave their homes for what the blue names call &amp;quot;Blizzcon&amp;quot;, and what WoW players call &amp;quot;5\/\/337 d00d&amp;quot;. Here, a large number of &amp;quot;WoW patients&amp;quot; can be seen. Their complications are diverse - ranging from mild conditions such as Carpal Tunnel and [[Leetspeak]], to a severe case of [[ugly]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Sometimes&#039;&#039; attractive people can be seen at a Blizzcon claiming to be WoW faggots. These are not really WoW faggots; they are models paid by Blizzard to appear at these pathetic vomit-inducing functions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzcon features a wide variety of activities;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Class Q+A: a forum for people who play hunters to make death threats to Metzen whenever playing their class approaches any kind of difficulty, and for ret paladins to complain that every class but them is OP because they died twice in a WSG last year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Lore Q+A: exactly as retarded as it sounds; a bunch of chinless, manboob-sporting retards screeching at Mezten because &amp;lt;strike&amp;gt;Thrall&#039;s&amp;lt;/strike&amp;gt; Jaina&#039;s left testicle is saggier in-game than it&#039;s described as being in the official novels.&lt;br /&gt;
* Dance Competition: an assortment of spastic, bony individuals who either do an extremely easy dance from the game or fail horribly at a more difficult one. On occasion a morbidly obese person will attempt one of the more athletic dances. The result is rather like watching a plane crash.&lt;br /&gt;
* Costume Contest: these deeply unattractive people are paraded in front of the crowd; the usual assortment being obese men in their twenties wearing paladin gear clearly made from ceral boxes; ugly girls who clearly worked very hard on their costumes but get no applause because they&#039;re not physically attractive, and sluts with shitty costumes who get a standing ovation because you can see their nipples, causing most of the crowd to go into a sort of feeding-frenzy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only reason to go to this convention is to seal the deal on finally quitting WoW, realizing that these are the horrible people you have been playing with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Addiction ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Divorce money.jpg|thumb|What you are doing when you buy WoW and these expansions]]&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|MMORPG Freak Out}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sufferers of the WoW addiction commonly refer to themselves as &amp;quot;WoWers&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;[[gamers|GamerZ]]&amp;quot;, or in the most severe cases as &amp;quot;Alliance&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Horde&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW addiction goes through several phases, phases of chemical drug addictions. This should comes as no surprise, as the Blizzard employees are reportedly paid in [[crack]]. WoW takes several steps beyond mundane addictions, with increasingly unstable behavior. If you have a friend or colleague whom you suspect of being a WoW addict, it is important to carefully gauge their level of addiction before taking any other action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Check their room for a &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot; box, subscription card, or wrist brace. Often early signs such as this can make all the difference, since while it&#039;s unlikely they will be cured, you can take action to prevent friends and loved ones from being infected.&lt;br /&gt;
* If you happen to walk in on a WoWer during on of their sessions, (as is most likely the case since that’s about all they ever do), DO NOT and I repeat &#039;&#039;&#039;DO NOT&#039;&#039;&#039;, interrupt the game. He may try to gank you with his replica sword he got at the Renfaire.&lt;br /&gt;
* It&#039;s entirely possible that you may catch a WoWer during an intense masturbation session (typically mid-cyber in the tram). You have been warned.&lt;br /&gt;
* From bank statements, see if they&#039;re buying from Chinese gold farmers. If you find this to be the case, you can be sure their addiction has taken precedence over any other financial considerations, and should immediately remove any items of value from anywhere in the area. Don&#039;t worry, they&#039;ll be too busy grinding to stop you.&lt;br /&gt;
* Severe addicts will commonly be in the habit of shitting in socks so as not to leave one&#039;s seat and thus get ganked by some level 23 loser. These hopeless cases are referred to as &amp;quot;poopsockers&amp;quot;, and should be &#039;&#039;&#039;terminated with extreme prejudice.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are but four cures for WoW addiction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Their self extermination. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Assisted extermination by a merciful soul. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Having a shred of willpower, and selling your account for many real dollars to some more-addicted sucker. Then you can buy delicious cake.&lt;br /&gt;
* Make them play &#039;&#039;[[Darkfall]]&#039;&#039; for a week. They&#039;ll be sure to never play MMORPGs ever again!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Players spend countless hours over this game. It will be hard to break them of their addiction, but in rare cases, if they kill themselves like [[Shawn Woolley]] did with EQ, you can Lysol their PC down and sell it. Sometimes some [[fags]] kill themselves just because they get so attached to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*There is however a risk with breaking a WoW players addiction by force. Certain under 18 players are prone to extreme meltdowns on the scale of Chernobyl. Scientists point to this phenomenon triggering when said players parents deny access to &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;. It is highly recommended that anyone living within the vicinity of said players immediately evacuate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Slavery ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:1271802961179.jpg|thumb|right|fuck dose whiteys ben racist1111]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Gold farmers warcraft.jpg|thumb|Farming is srs bzns for [[Azns]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Modern [[slaves|slavery]] is known as &amp;quot;Gold Farming&amp;quot; and is intended to keep the Yellow menace down. When the [[United States]] banned slavery, it was a very sad time for slave owners. Later, the black person started to demand reparations, so something &#039;&#039;simply had to be done.&#039;&#039; [[The Man]] decided that slavery had to be moved offshore, to ensure continued economic prosperity for [[Microsoft]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Farming has been around since before the Internet, but nobody could ever figure out how to grow money until &#039;&#039;[[Ultima_online|Ultima Online]]&#039;&#039; was invented. It isn&#039;t known who made the initial breakthrough, but it&#039;s thought that Alan Greenspan&#039;s lackeys were primarily responsible, since only they could have conceived of such a brilliantly sick and perverse means of enriching themselves. However, the advent of the practice was probably inevitable, since despite their addiction, WoWers often find themselves unable to play 24 hours a day and must find another way to continue while they sleep, eat, or go to the bathroom. So, for $0.50 per hour, a |barely-educated commie living in a sweaty room will play WoW for them. Needless to say, the commie himself earns roughly [[wat|$0.05 per week.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it&#039;s difficult for players to distinguish the gold-field workers from monkeys or robots. They often repeat the same mistakes and speak gibberish (like monkeys!) Work is being done to translate some of their [[moonspeak]]. Know your Chinaman by these phrases: &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;ni hao&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;[Krol Blade] ok??&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;water 1g?&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;is 4 guildie&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;deal giev ok??10g&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;tusoNgaMe $5 4 2thousand free!&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those that speak English become the &amp;quot;boss boss&amp;quot; and take all the money, while the slaves do all the work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Trolling Techniques ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Wikipedousersmall.png|thumb|Showing those fucking paladins how it&#039;s done.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These generate various effects - some bring lulz and some just [[fail]]. Experiment and find your own lulz. However, Blizzard, like most companies, disabled trade/chatroom from trial accounts, because of [[Chink]] gold farmers. A paid account is required for the best effort in [[lulz]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Set auto follow on new players; for whatever reason this really pisses people off.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join parties for dungeons as a healer and then leave about halfway through without saying anything. It works very well. Bonus points if you leave while your group is fighting the last boss of the dungeon.&lt;br /&gt;
# Lead a party into an instance and then randomly boot players from it.&lt;br /&gt;
# Start listing the name of movies with &amp;quot;Murloc&amp;quot; in the title like &#039;&#039;Indiana Murloc and The Temple of Doom&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;Debbie Does Murloc&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
# If Horde, start shit with people in Barrens chat. It&#039;s a non-PvP area filled with low level players, so they can&#039;t hurt you or retaliate. You can troll to your heart&#039;s content.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join battlegrounds at the lowest level possible, and start talking shit about how people have no fucking idea how to play the game.&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja any piece of loot. This will require a time investment, but if you steal the right piece of loot, you will ignite a shitstorm of drama that should keep you entertained for at least five minutes. You won&#039;t get banned as long you&#039;re not stupid enough to post loot rules in chat, GMs won&#039;t have anything to pin on you.&lt;br /&gt;
# Tell people what to do, and when they say you have no idea what you&#039;re on about, retaliate with &amp;quot;Your such a noob, I have five level 80&#039;s and three Death Knights, I know what I&#039;m talking about&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# When using the auction house, be sure to put up shit people need without buyout. Then pull it off the auction house before it sells - this is essentially the closest any WoW player gets to the transfer of goods between consenting individuals.&lt;br /&gt;
# Announce in trade chat that [name of player] is quitting WoW forever and is giving all their gold to the first person who whispers them!&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja a Bloody Apron as a rogue from a priest who doesn&#039;t need it but will whine to their guild to boot that rogue&lt;br /&gt;
# Link any item in trade chat, and state that the last person to link the same item will receive a large sum of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# When in dungeons as a hunter or rogue, use Misdirection or Tricks of the Trade on a healer and attack a large group of enemies.&lt;br /&gt;
# Play as a warlock and fear inside an instance, lulz and rage will ensue.&lt;br /&gt;
# Bitch loudly about how you can&#039;t spend achievement points.&lt;br /&gt;
# Spam trade chat with Anal then a spell, ability, quest, achievement etc &lt;br /&gt;
# Note that &#039;&#039;[[RuneScape]]&#039;&#039; is a much superior online game.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- # Point them to [http://wowflames.com Wowflames.com]! --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# As a priest, use Mind Control on other players when dueling on locations that have cliffs you can jump off and/or while waiting for zeppelins / boats to leave.&lt;br /&gt;
# Accuse all Worgen and Pandaren players of being [[furry|furries]]. This will always cause rage and lulz because it&#039;s [[fact|true]].&lt;br /&gt;
# As a Paladin Tank, use Divine Shield and watch the enemies kill your party members.&lt;br /&gt;
# Use the auction houses to rig the prices of basic items to the maximum amount of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# Roll need on as much loot as you can in groups.&lt;br /&gt;
# If you duel an opposing faction member in a neutral town, hit /forfeit the moment you get hit. It may not work anymore, but when it did, it caused a lot of lulz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Private Servers ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Private servers are available for poor people and unemployed losers that can&#039;t pay $15 per month for the retail version. The downside is that they are utterly glitched. It is not unusual that &#039;&amp;quot;instanced dungeons&amp;quot;&#039; (Special zones wherein most end game content can be found. They are fractioned into unique, temporary dimensions for each player, and can only be entered simultaneously by players with the help of Blizzard&#039;s &amp;quot;raid&amp;quot;- and &amp;quot;party&amp;quot; functions.) Private server providers compensate for their dysfunctional service by setting the experience point and item drop rate up to mega volume. There are two genres of private servers: &amp;quot;Funservers&amp;quot; where you instantly gain maximum level and can get the best gear from a vendor where you begin. Then there are the &amp;quot;blizzlike&amp;quot; servers which have a leveling rate that is five- or tenfolded. When you hit maximum level on a blizzlike server, you start roaming the world looking for some kind of glitch to gain treasure. After all, [[it&#039;s not a bug, it&#039;s a feature]]. Alternatively, you can [[lurk]] your private server&#039;s web forum to wait for the next official event. This consists of a private server admin summoning a boss which drops loot. If you get [[1337]] gear, you can brag to everyone in your guild, general chat and forum. Though, in the next day, the server and its data is probably gone forever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are pristine emulations of Blizzard&#039;s servers. However, they tend to vanish untraceable in the night. This is probably because they face Blizzard&#039;s judicial [[banhammer]]. [http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/05/blizzard-legal-targets-private-servers/ Blizzard targeted the fuck out of private servers. Oops.] There is also this cancerous blight known as &#039;&#039;Private&#039;&#039; Role-Playing servers. Filled with shitty admins and mind-crippled community, they are easy to troll while avoiding getting banned since their masterful devs only know how to edit posts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Je suis Nostalrius ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out of the mess of glitchy private servers out there, there is the occasional diamond in the rough. Nostalrius was that diamond.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike other private servers that were made to sidestep Blizzard&#039;s jewry, Nostalrius was meant to be a legacy server that provided a vanilla experience. Run by only thirty volunteers, they worked around the clock to maintain the server like it was an official server, and for a whole year, it was fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;What happen?&#039;&#039;&#039;: Blizzard caught wind that someone made a better service then them, and dropped the [[Lolsuit]] hard. Over a million accounts on the server were wiped, and the server was shut down. Another private server gone, so everything should be good right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, except for the fact that Nostalrius was a private legacy server, running in Vanilla WoW since new WoW has become a casualized mess. The server was created since Blizzard for whatever reason, refuses to create servers for nostalgia fags.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;youtube&amp;gt;XuOYmqSF6OQ&amp;lt;/youtube&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reaction over the shutdown was so massive, a civil war broke out in the toxic hellhole known as [http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1975197-Blizzard-shuts-down-Vanilla-Private-Server-Nostralius MMO-Champion], several Jewtubers (Including [[Jontron]] of all people) made angry rants, and another million players cancelled their future WoW subs. Great job Blizzard, that&#039;ll show those retards who just want a simple service that thirty people for free were providing.&lt;br /&gt;

A man wanted for marijuana possession fled the country. He continued playing &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; and so [[Blizzard Entertainment]] narced him out. He was caught and brought back to the USA. {{Archive|dvWCz|Read Here}}&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{achtung|Playing World of Warcraft may cause insanity and an increased risk of turning into a basement-dwelling loot goblin.}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{breakingnews|Blizzard dropped the banhammer on Nostalrius. That&#039;ll surely get their seven million lost subs back!}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{spoilers|text=The grand twist in this game is that the real final boss is your own social life crumbling from neglect. Even the NPCs lead more exciting lives than you!!!}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to World of Warcraft (unironically shortened to &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot;), the digital wasteland where your dreams of heroism go to die and your patience is stretched thinner than the plot of a Michael Bay movie. Launched in 2004 by Blizzard Entertainment, WoW (as in WOW, my life went down the shitter) has managed to captivate millions of [[retards|players]] worldwide, mainly by trapping them in an [[real life|endless cycle of grinding and disappointment]]. With lore so convoluted and undecipherable, it would take eons for linguists around the world to actually understand what the actual fuck Chris Metzen snorted while &amp;quot;envisioning&amp;quot; this crap. It makes &#039;&#039;Silmarillion&#039;&#039; look like a five-minute bed time story specifically written for children with fragile x syndrome. Strap in, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the cesspool of Azeroth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Graphics: Ancient Relics ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Graphics—where mountains resemble freshly baked loaves of bread, and trees look like they&#039;re made from crumpled-up gift wrap. It&#039;s like Blizzard handed the development team a box of crayons from 2004 and said, &amp;quot;Go nuts!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The water? Oh, that&#039;s a masterpiece—who doesn&#039;t love reflective puddles that look like shiny plastic wrap stretched over Jell-O? And let&#039;s not forget the iconic NPC faces. It&#039;s like they all went to the same plastic surgeon who only knows two expressions: &amp;quot;I&#039;m slightly concerned&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;I just smelled a fart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then there’s the foliage! Nothing screams &amp;quot;immersive realism&amp;quot; like flat, paper-thin grass that clips through your boots as if it&#039;s given up on life. It&#039;s as if Azeroth is secretly sponsored by a discount origami company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The real charm, though, is in the armor design. Why does a shoulder piece for a level 20 character look like they’re carrying an entire medieval dining set on each shoulder? Practicality clearly isn’t a concern when you&#039;re walking around with shoulder pads so massive, you need FAA clearance to enter Stormwind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#039;s not overlook those classic textures. WoW&#039;s cobblestones look like someone smeared a JPEG from 1999 across the ground and called it a day. And yet, somehow, these low-res visuals still demand a gaming PC from NASA to hit 60 FPS during a raid. Truly, a marvel of modern optimization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay: Grind Until You Die ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft’s gameplay is like being handed a spoon and told to dig a hole to the center of the Earth, only to fill it back up again once you’re halfway there—or maybe it’s more like trying to empty an ocean with a leaky bucket while a crab bites your toes. In this epic fantasy realm, you’ll embark on “world-saving” quests, also known as glorified errands, like “Collect 10 bear asses.” Yes, bear asses—because apparently, in Azeroth, bears have somehow evolved to grow multiple asses, and you’re the only hero brave enough to harvest them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These “quests” are repetitive fetch missions that could easily be outsourced to any halfway competent NPC, but no, you are the chosen one—the bearer of buckets, the picker-upper of random crap, the unpaid intern of the gods. Every click of your mouse is a solemn reminder that you’re shelling out a monthly fee to perform glorified virtual chores. It’s like paying someone to let you vacuum their house.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And while you’re out there scraping bear asses and picking up literally glowing mushrooms, the so-called villains of the game are just chilling. These are the big bads who supposedly threaten the entire world, yet they’re hanging out in their dungeons like they’re at a company retreat. Surrounded by armies of overly enthusiastic minions who are just… standing there, waiting for you to arrive. Honestly, you could probably knock on their front door, and they’d open it like, “Oh good, you’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for someone to kill us for years.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But hey, it’s not all bad. At least you get to enjoy the satisfaction of grinding for hours to earn a shiny new sword that looks exactly like your last sword, except now it glows. Progress, baby. Welcome to World of Warcraft: where the real hero isn’t you—it’s your ability to endure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Leveling:&#039;&#039;&#039; Experience the joy of killing the same boar 10,000 times to gain a single level. It&#039;s like Groundhog Day, but without the comedic relief.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Raiding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gather a group of socially awkward strangers to take down a boss that drops gear you don’t need. If the game mechanics don&#039;t kill you, your teammates&#039; incompetence will.&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;PvP:&#039;&#039;&#039; Dive into the world of PvP where balance is a myth and every rogue is a stealthy demon sent straight from hell to ruin your day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Storyline: A Soap Opera on Steroids ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of WoW is a convoluted mess that makes Days of Our Lives look like a masterpiece of coherent storytelling. Every expansion brings more plot twists and lore retcons than you can shake a stick at.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Factions:&#039;&#039;&#039; The eternal struggle between the Horde and the Alliance is like watching two toddlers fight over a toy – entertaining for a moment, but ultimately pointless and exhausting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Villains:&#039;&#039;&#039; From the Lich King to Sylvanas Windrunner, every villain is a misunderstood anti-hero with daddy issues. It&#039;s like Blizzard hired a team of therapists to write the lore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Community: A Hive of Scum and Villainy ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The WoW community is a mixed bag of elitists, trolls, and those poor souls who genuinely enjoy the game. The general chat is a cesspool of spam, political arguments, and unsolicited advice on how to play your class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Elitists:&#039;&#039;&#039; These players think they are gods among mortals, looking down upon anyone who dares to enjoy the game casually.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trolls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The bane of any online community, trolls in WoW are a special breed. They thrive on chaos and your tears, and they won’t stop until they’ve made you regret logging in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Normal People:&#039;&#039;&#039; Normal people were just trying to enjoy the game, but eventually saw through the facade of pure shite and ultimately left the game a few expansions ago.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Updates: Or Lack Thereof ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard’s approach to updates can be summed up as “better late than never.” Each patch promises to fix what’s broken, but usually just introduces new ways to break the game. The developers&#039; motto seems to be, “If it ain&#039;t broke, we’ll fix that.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Microtransactions: Pay to Play, and Pay Some More ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Micro transactions wow.jpg|left|thumb|Buy, buy and buy some moar!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW has embraced microtransactions with the fervor of a televangelist asking for donations. Mounts, pets, character boosts – all available for the low, low price of your dignity. It’s like paying extra for the privilege of being disappointed faster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Main Idea: A Beautiful Disaster ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft is the ultimate exercise in masochism. It’s a beautifully designed trap that lures you in with promises of adventure and camaraderie, only to beat you down with endless grind and toxic community interactions. If you’re looking for a game that will suck away your time, money, and soul, then WoW is the perfect choice. Enjoy the ride to nowhere, because in the end, the real boss fight is against your own sense of self-worth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Starting zones.jpg|center|500px|Typical starting zones.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Races ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome, brave souls, to the sardonic safari of World of Warcraft’s races, where fantasy clichés meet the most ridiculous stereotypes the gaming world has to offer. Hold onto your keyboards as we dive into the wonderful, woeful world of Azeroth’s inhabitants. It’s time to see who really stands out… or in most cases, who stands way too far out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Alliance ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The so-called &amp;quot;noble&amp;quot; faction of World of Warcraft, where everyone is apparently too busy polishing their armor and patting themselves on the back to notice how insufferably pretentious they are. Gather &#039;round, dear reader, as we embark on a tour of this faction, which, quite frankly, could use a dose of humility and a reality check.&lt;br /&gt;

|The Humans. The race that defines &amp;quot;average&amp;quot; with all the enthusiasm of a damp sponge. They&#039;re the most generic fantasy fodder you can imagine: just your everyday medieval peasants with a king complex. Want to know what a human in WoW is like? Picture that guy in the office who thinks he&#039;s the main character in a dramatic novel. &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow dwarfs.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Dwarves: The Short Stack Stereotypes&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|•&amp;amp;nbsp;100% increased nose&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;50% increased backstab critical hit &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;•&amp;amp;nbsp;Treasure finding&lt;br /&gt;
|Dwarves are basically hobbits with a drinking problem and a miner’s helmet. Imagine a group of guys who think &amp;quot;tall&amp;quot; is a cardinal sin and that “work” should be synonymous with “beer.” They’re short, they’re stout, and they’ve got a chip on their shoulder the size of their ego. Great at mining, terrible at everything else, especially personal hygiene. In most high-fantasy works, these lilliputian, anthropomorphic, hairy Muppets are often compared to real-life [[Jews]] due to their obsession with treasure, their extreme xenophobia, and their consistent display of a God complex.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow gnomes.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Gnomes: The Tiny Tech Terrorists&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Gnomes are the tiny tech enthusiasts of Azeroth, always tinkering with gadgets and gizmos. Their advanced intellect is overshadowed only by their insufferable personalities. They&#039;re like that annoying kid in class who always had to be right and corrected the teacher and/or always requested more homework. Playing a gnome means embracing your inner know-it-all and annoying everyone in sight with your [[sarcasm|superior intellect]].&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Night elf wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Night Elves: The Tree-Hugging Hippies&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Night Elves, the ultimate eco-warriors who spend their days frolicking in forests and talking to animals while embracing their inner homosexuality. Their obsession with nature is so extreme, you half expect them to chain themselves to a tree in protest of logging. With their &amp;quot;shadowmeld&amp;quot; ability, they can disappear into the shadows – perfect for avoiding responsibility and accountability, like the dirty hippies they are.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Space goats wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Draenei: The Holier-Than-Thou Space Goats&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|The Draenei are the self-righteous space goats who crash-landed on Azeroth and decided to grace everyone with their moral superiority. With their glowing eyes and incessant preaching about the Light, they’re basically the Jehovah’s Witnesses of WoW. If you enjoy lecturing others on everything while virtue signaling and ignoring your own flaws, then the Draenei are your kindred spirits.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Worgen wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Worgen: The Furry Fiasco&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Worgen are the werewolf wannabes who can’t decide if they want to be human or beast. They spend half their time transforming and the other half brooding about their curse, like a bipolar furry. Their duality is supposed to be intriguing and ezoteric, but ends up being as exciting as a cringey high school goth phase. Play a Worgen if you enjoy unnecessary drama, perpetual identity crisis and especially, if you&#039;re a sick fuck who likes to masturbate looking at Dragonkin porn on [[Rule 34]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== [[Afghanistan|The Horde]] ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ragtag group of misfits, outcasts, and supposed [[dipshits|badasses]] of the World of Warcraft universe. If ever there was a faction that embodies the chaotic energy of a middle school cafeteria, it&#039;s this one. Buckle up, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the murky depths of this so-called &amp;quot;[[cringe|faction of honor and strength]]&amp;quot; – with a heavy dose of &amp;quot;fuck off&amp;quot; and a side of unfiltered disdain, delivered by 40-year-old keyboard warrior manchildren who embody the internet tough guy meme perfectly.&lt;br /&gt;

|Orcs are the muscle-bound neanderthals of Azeroth who came here to literally kill, pillage, rape and destroy everything. Their solution to every problem? Smash it. They’re constantly raging about honor and glory, which is just a thinly veiled excuse to murder things. If you like the idea of playing a character that’s one-dimensional and as subtle as a sledgehammer, orcs are your perfect match. If you can&#039;t afford to play WoW, just paint a brick green and put some googly eyes on it—that&#039;s basically an orc.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow troll.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Trolls: The Laid-Back Psycopaths&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Trolls are the laid-back, rasta-loving lunatics who seem perpetually stoned, yet are always ready to murder you and eat your corpse, according to their [[special|unique]] culture. They have a &amp;quot;no worries&amp;quot; attitude about everything, even when being impaled by a sword. Their penchant for voodoo and eating long pig is charming in a sort of &amp;quot;we really don’t care&amp;quot; way. If you enjoy playing a character who’s chill but highly deranged, like [[sick fuck|Albert Fish]], trolls are your tribe.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow undead.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Forsaken: Zombie Angsty Teens&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Touch of the child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;5% forsaken child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Cannibalize&lt;br /&gt;
|The Forsaken are the edgy, undead rejects who are eternally angsty. Their leader, Sylvanas, is the queen of drama, and they follow her like loyal emo kids. They revel in decay and despair, making them the perfect choice for players who never outgrew their [[Hot Topic]] phase. If you like the idea of being an [[Avril Lavigne]] reject—always pissed off and dead inside and out—the Forsaken are your choice.&lt;br /&gt;

|[[File:Tauren horde.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Tauren: The Bovine Philosophers&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Milk&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Leather&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Endurance&lt;br /&gt;
|This race is the ideal race for pseudo-intellectual [[neckbeard|neckbeards]]. Half of the Tauren userbase will have the word &amp;quot;moo&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;cow&amp;quot; in their names because they think they are clever shits and internet-funny, when in reality they need to cut off circulation to their dick and set themselves on fire. Tauren are the gentle giants who love to shout philosophical drivel about nature and balance. They’re basically cows with a conscience, who cry when they eat grass because plants also feel pain or some stupid shit like that. Their slow, deliberate way of speaking and moving is perfect for players who enjoy a leisurely pace aka mental retards. If you want to play a character that’s basically Donkey from Shrek, but a cow instead of a horse, the Tauren are for you.&lt;br /&gt;

|Blood Elves are the vain, pretty closeted homosexuals and girls of Azeroth. Obsessed with their looks and their [[drugs|magical addiction]], they’re like the Kardashians of WoW. They’ve got a tragic backstory but are too busy checking their reflection to care. Play a Blood Elf if you enjoy being the center of attention and making everything about your narcissistic ass, while everyone else rolls their eyes so hard they can see through the back of their heads.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Horde goblins.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Goblins: Gnomes Meet Mad Max&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Basically, they are Gnomes, just painted green and given to the Horde, but it&#039;s the same shtick. These pint-sized green disasters are the epitome of greed and avarice. Goblins don’t just love gold, they worship it like a deity, sacrificing dignity and common sense at the altar of profit margins. Their entire society is a grotesque parody of capitalism on steroids, where the only thing more explosive than their volatile gadgets are their bullshit mumbo-jumbo Gangster wannabe personas.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Neutral Race ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because Blizzard was too lazy, they decided to add a race for both faction on the Alliance and the Horde, and made this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wow_panda.jpg|center|500px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those portly, panda-like creatures that stumbled into the World of Warcraft universe like a drunken uncle at a family reunion. Who thought it was a good idea to blend Kung Fu Panda with your epic fantasy world? Someone at Blizzard must have had a few too many drinks at the company party after watching a cartoon movie for kids?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So there you have it, the diverse (and dreadful) races of World of Warcraft. Each one is retarded in its own irritating way. Whatever flavor of crap you prefer, WoW has something to frustrate everyone. Enjoy your stay in Azeroth – you’ll need all the patience you can muster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Classes and Talents ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the World of Warcraft, where fantasy meets reality, and gamers everywhere embark on epic quests to save Azeroth, all while living in their parents’ basements. But let’s be brutally honest – not all heroes are created equal. In fact, some of these classes are as balanced as a seesaw with an elephant on one end. So let&#039;s tear apart each class with brutal honesty and a pinch of hatred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warrior.jpg|thumb|150px|A mighty [[faggot|warrior]], a projection of the [[you|player]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warrior: The Meatshield with Delusions of Grandeur&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warrior – the quintessential tank who believes that having a ton of armor and health somehow makes up for having the intelligence of a rock. Warriors charge into battle with the grace of a drunken elephant, swinging their oversized weapons while shouting incoherently. Their idea of strategy is to hit things harder and hope for the best. And let’s not forget their favorite pastime: complaining about not having enough heals, despite standing in every possible fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to scream &amp;quot;For the Horde!&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;For the Alliance!&amp;quot; while charging into battle.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re basically a glorified punching bag. Prepare for a lifetime of repair bills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arms:&#039;&#039;&#039; You use your fucking arms, spin like a ballerina and die constantly. &lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fury:&#039;&#039;&#039; Grants warriors to equip a giant dong in each hand, so they have an easier time being faggots. Remember to always use raging blowjob when you have 2 charges.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; A curious name for this, as these are the biggest AIDS on this planet. Nobody knows how to play them, so expect your group to fail every time this is the tank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow paladin.jpg|thumb|left|150px|[[sarcasm|A righteous Paladin]]. Notice how he walks in his own piss to convey superiority.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Paladin: The Self-Righteous Zealot&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Paladins are the holy knights of Azeroth, wielding both a sword and a Bible, ready to smite evil and preach about the Light. They come in three flavors: Tankadin, Healadin, and Retardin. Despite their shiny armor and holy auras, Paladins have an uncanny ability to be both invincible and utterly useless at the same time. Their primary skill? Spamming bubbles and judging everyone around them – both in and out of the game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to wear plate armor and heal yourself. Plus, bubble hearth!&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;ll spend half your time arguing about whether you&#039;re a healer or a tank. &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Spoiler:&#039;&#039; you&#039;re whatever your group needs, you walking [[tool|utility belt.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Retribution:&#039;&#039;&#039; If you choose this branch, just start over. The goal of this class is to get holy power, then spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, kill yourself, spend it, get holy power...&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; The tank of the game. Which is not saying much. Basically, whilst in a fight you get an extra five seconds of life. It&#039;s the kind of thing where you think you&#039;re getting the best of the best, but is really isn&#039;t much different. Only good for raids and tanking. Also enjoy your 1 million life points, and your zero real life points.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Absolutely useless. Can&#039;t heal. Can&#039;t do any damage. Needs to do damage to heal. The damage will suck, and your teammates will scream at you because you used an offensive move, so that you could use your defensive skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow hunter.jpg|thumb|150px|The hunter, the perpetual [[dumbass|dazed and confused]] DPS class that has no idea what to do.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Hunter: The AFK Champion&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hunters, the masters of ranged combat and pet management – or so they claim. In reality, Hunters are known for two things: pulling extra mobs and being perpetually AFK. Their pets have a mind of their own, often running off to aggro entire dungeons while the Hunter is busy texting their girlfriend. They also have a talent for misdirecting bosses onto healers, proving that the real hunt is for competent group members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can solo almost anything with your trusty pet. Also, feign death is the perfect &amp;quot;I didn&#039;t sign up for this&amp;quot; button.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Everyone assumes you’re just mashing buttons while watching Netflix. And let&#039;s be honest, you probably are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Beast Mastery:&#039;&#039;&#039; These hunters have wonderful sexual experiences with their pets, which motivates their pets to fight harder. Take this if you are a furry. Your pets can fight on their, so you don&#039;t even need to be in the game, which is a plus.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Marksmanship:&#039;&#039;&#039; Expect to do less than the other huntards if you choose this, as it absolutely blows the ass.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Survival:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOL TRAPS ARE ABSOLUTELY USELESS.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow priest.jpg|thumb|left|150px|A typical WoW priest realizing everyone knows his dark secret a.k.a kiddie fondling.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Priest: The Masochistic Medic&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Priests are the backbone of any raid group, providing healing and buffs to keep everyone alive. They come in two flavors: Holy and Shadow. Holy Priests are the altruistic healers who enjoy being yelled at for not healing fast enough, while Shadow Priests are the edgy teens who channel dark powers and constantly remind you of their &amp;quot;deep, dark pain.&amp;quot; Either way, playing a Priest means accepting that no one will appreciate you until you stop healing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re the group&#039;s lifeline. No priest, no raid. Instant ego boost.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Prepare to hear &amp;quot;heal plz&amp;quot; more times than you can count. And when things go south, it’s always your fault, faggot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Discipline:&#039;&#039;&#039; So I herd you like shielding. Now you can shield while you shield while you shield in a shield.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let me heal you child, just step into this dark basement.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Shadow:&#039;&#039;&#039; Years of raping kids has not paid off, as this is the weakest DPS class. Expect everyone to pass you in instances.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow mage.jpg|thumb|150px|Totally not a Wizard.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Mage: The Glass Cannon&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Mages are the epitome of high-risk, high-reward gameplay. They can dish out incredible damage with spells like Fireball and Frostbolt, but they have the survivability of a wet paper bag. Mages spend half their time nuking enemies from a safe distance and the other half running away screaming when anything gets too close. Their greatest contribution to any group? Free food and portals – because nothing says &amp;quot;master of the arcane&amp;quot; like being a glorified vending machine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Teleports and portals save you a fortune in travel costs. And who doesn&#039;t love setting things on fire?&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You’re about as durable as wet tissue paper. Get used to mobs wiping their ass with you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arcane:&#039;&#039;&#039; Maintain your mana. Don&#039;t move, ever. Do this and you will win the DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fire:&#039;&#039;&#039; Wait for Pyroblast to proc. Spam other abilities that don&#039;t do shit. Wait for Pyroblast.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE... AND ICE.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow shaman.jpg|thumb|left|150px|It&#039;s a known fact Shamans sweat cum.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Shaman: The Elemental Hipster&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Shamans are the spiritual guides who wield the powers of the elements – fire, water, air, and earth. They have the unique ability to drop totems that provide buffs or annoy everyone with unnecessary clutter. Shamans are often seen in the back, frantically trying to keep their totems from being destroyed while everyone else wonders what they actually do. They claim to bring balance to the group, but mostly they bring confusion and misplaced expectations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Totems, totems everywhere. Plus, you get to yell &amp;quot;It&#039;s clobberin&#039; time!&amp;quot; while dual-wielding.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Juggling totems is about as fun as herding cats. And you&#039;ll always be the &amp;quot;off-healer&amp;quot; in raids.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Enhancement:&#039;&#039;&#039; Similar to Beast Mastery hunter, except Shamans are specific and only do it with wolves. This is for retards who still want to do high DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Piss on everybody to heal them. Occasionally drops a magic dildo which floods the area with cum.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Elemental:&#039;&#039;&#039; These shamans are similar to Arcane Mages, except they can move earth with their dildos. Use lava.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow druid.jpg|thumb|150px|A druid realizing he [[cum|jizzed in his pants]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Druid: The Jack of All Trades, Master of None&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Druids are the ultimate utility class, able to shapeshift into various forms to fulfill different roles. They can tank, heal, and deal damage – all while looking like they got lost on their way to a nature documentary. However, their versatility comes at a cost: they’re mediocre at everything. Druids spend most of their time arguing about which form is best and why they’re not being appreciated for their &amp;quot;amazing flexibility.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can be a bear, a cat, a bird, and a tree—all in one day. Flexibility is your middle name.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Jack of all trades, master of none. And good luck keeping track of all your forms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Balance (BOOMKIN):&#039;&#039;&#039; YOU TURN INTO A GIANT SPACE-CHICKEN AND SHOOT FUCKING LASERS EVERYWHERE THAT DON&#039;T DO ANY DAMAGE&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Giant wooden dildo that heals people by throwing leaves at them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Feral:&#039;&#039;&#039; Either a cute kitten that requires everything to bleed or a giant motherfucking pedobear who is only useful as a meatshield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warlock.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Crazy, evil, socipaths that consider torture a hobby.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warlock: The Soul-Sucking Sociopath&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warlocks are the goth kids of Warcraft, summoning demons and casting curses while everyone else wonders if they’re secretly plotting to destroy the world. They revel in the misery of others, draining life and mana with glee. Warlocks can summon powerful pets, but they’re mostly known for dotting everything in sight and then laughing maniacally as their enemies wither away. Their main weakness? Explaining why they chose to play such an obviously evil class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Affliction:&#039;&#039;&#039; You specialize in giving AIDS and cancer to all fucking players while slowly sucking their cock.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Demonology:&#039;&#039;&#039; Same as Beast Mastery hunters, except warlocks prefer demons and necrophilia over animals.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Destruction:&#039;&#039;&#039; Set everything ablaze. Enjoy getting raped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow rogue.jpg|thumb|150px|Rogues do it from behind.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Rogue: The Backstabbing Bandit&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Rogues live in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to stab you in the back – much like your ex. These sneaky bastards are great at dealing massive damage, then vanishing before anyone can retaliate. Their playstyle revolves around stealth, deceit, and looting all the good stuff while everyone else is fighting. Rogues often remind us that trust issues aren&#039;t just for relationships.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Assassination:&#039;&#039;&#039; wanna-be-Ezio, but in reality, a shitty spec no one plays with, because why would you want to poison someone when you can sinister strike them?&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Combat:&#039;&#039;&#039; You sinister strike them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Subtlety:&#039;&#039;&#039; Subtlety rogues sneak upon people and give them surprise buttsecks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow death knight.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Notice the edgyness.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Death Knight: The Edgelord Extraordinaire&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Death Knights are the dark, brooding anti-heroes of Warcraft, resurrected to serve the Lich King and then deciding they’d rather just sulk around Azeroth. With abilities like Death Grip and Army of the Dead, they excel at making every fight as chaotic as possible. Their aesthetic screams &amp;quot;I shop exclusively at Hot Topic,&amp;quot; and their gameplay revolves around being as edgy and misunderstood as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Blood:&#039;&#039;&#039; GAY HOMOSEXUAL FAGGOT who can tank bosses. Can heal himself better than a raid-geared healer could, which of course makes them [[no|very balanced]] in PvP.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy doing less damage than the tank spec.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Unholy:&#039;&#039;&#039; As a good whore DK is, unholy DKs spread all the fucking diseases from syphilis to chlamydia to their opponents while buttfucking their ghouls. Completely useless. Does even less damage than Blood and Frost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow monk.jpg|thumb|150px|Guys, the Monk is drunk again...]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Monk: The Confused Contender&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Monks are the newest addition to the World of Warcraft class lineup, bringing martial arts and chi energy to the mix. They punch, kick, and heal their way through dungeons, all while trying to figure out why they were added to the game in the first place. Monks have a unique playstyle that involves rolling around and drinking mysterious brews, which leads many to wonder if they’re actually just drunken brawlers who stumbled into Azeroth by accident.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Brewmaster:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOLLLLLLL SO FUCKING DRUNK :PPPPPPPP THESE MOBS CANT EVEN HANDLE ME RIGHT NOW&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Mistweaver:&#039;&#039;&#039; Healing mist, so creative Blizzard. Oh, and some fucking orbs, too.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Windwalker:&#039;&#039;&#039; Typical wanna-be-JackieChan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Demon Hunter: The One-Trick Pony&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow demon hunter.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Notice the gun as most people imagine themselves acutally playing the [[DOOM]] guy, or is it just [[you]]?]]&lt;br /&gt;
Demon Hunters are the rockstars of WoW, with flashy abilities and a brooding backstory that screams &amp;quot;look at me.&amp;quot; They excel at doing one thing: dealing damage. With abilities like Eye Beam and Metamorphosis, they make sure everyone knows they’re the center of attention. However, their reliance on mobility and damage output makes them fragile and predictable. Once the novelty wears off, Demon Hunters are just edgy night elves with a superiority complex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Overall:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft classes are a testament to the game’s enduring appeal and its ability to attract both die-hard fans and relentless critics. Each class brings its own flavor of chaos, hilarity, and frustration to the game. Whether you love them or hate them, one thing’s for sure: WoW wouldn’t be the same without this motley crew of misfits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, next time you log in, take a moment to appreciate the absurdity and brilliance of the World of Warcraft classes. After all, it’s this delightful mess that keeps Azeroth spinning and the players coming back for more – even if it’s just to complain about how much they hate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

===Burning Crusade (BC)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Burning crusade satire image.jpg|thumb|right|Grind, grind, grind, grind and grind, dipshits.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, The Burning Crusade—the first expansion for World of Warcraft, and arguably the game equivalent of a long, excruciating dentist appointment. Released in 2007, this expansion promised to bring thrilling new content and exciting adventures. What it delivered, however, was a cluster of frustration, recycled content, and enough player tears to fill the Great Sea. Strap in, because we&#039;re diving headfirst into this dumpster fire with all the love and hatred it deserves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: A Masterclass in Overcomplication&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, decided that the lore needed to be more convoluted than a soap opera. Enter the shattered world of Outland, where Illidan Stormrage, the original emo night elf, waits with a scowl that could rival your most disgruntled ex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember that badass anti-hero from Warcraft III? Well, prepare to see him reduced to a raid boss who gets beaten like a piñata. He&#039;s no longer the “You are not prepared!” legend, but rather the “Oh, you’re still here?” side note.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Blood Elves and Draenei:&#039;&#039;&#039; Two new races introduced to pad out the player base and offer more cringe-worthy RP possibilities. Blood Elves—because everyone wanted to play an elf with a superiority complex—and Draenei, the space goats who crash-landed into Azeroth with zero navigational skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Like a Rusty Gear&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought vanilla WoW had its grindy moments, The Burning Crusade takes it to a whole new level. Enjoy endless grinding for attunements, resist gear, and the eternal hell of daily quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Attunements:&#039;&#039;&#039; Want to raid? Be prepared to sell your soul for attunements that require you to jump through more hoops than a circus poodle. Let’s make this clear—no one, and I mean NO ONE, enjoys grinding for weeks just to step foot in a raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Reputation Grinding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who doesn’t love spending countless hours doing repetitive tasks for factions that barely remember your name? Get ready to kill the same mobs over and over again in a mind-numbing loop of despair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying Mounts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sure, they sound cool until you realize you’ll need to grind gold like a medieval peasant to afford one. The only thing more painful than getting your first flying mount is the repair bill after you crash it into the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039; Dungeons and Raids: Recycled Boredom &#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard must have really loved recycling because The Burning Crusade dungeons and raids feel like they were pulled straight out of the developer’s trash bin of ideas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Karazhan:&#039;&#039;&#039; A 10-man raid where you spend more time listening to ghostly opera performances than actually fighting bosses. The real challenge is staying awake through the endless trash mobs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep:&#039;&#039;&#039; Exciting in theory, monotonous in practice. Nothing says fun like fighting the same faceless, fish-headed murloc wannabes and robot chickens over and over again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Magtheridon’s Lair:&#039;&#039;&#039; Imagine Onyxia, but less interesting and with more cubes to click. Clicking cubes—because that&#039;s what we all signed up for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Wastelands of Despair&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outland is a visually striking yet soul-sucking expanse of zones designed to test your patience and willingness to live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Hellfire Peninsula:&#039;&#039;&#039; Red, barren, and filled with boars on steroids. It’s as if Blizzard took Durotar, painted it red, and called it a day. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Zangarmarsh:&#039;&#039;&#039; Mushrooms, mushrooms everywhere. If you love fungi and humidity, this zone is your damp dream. Otherwise, it’s just a swampy mess that’s more confusing than enchanting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Nagrand:&#039;&#039;&#039; The one saving grace, because even Blizzard couldn’t mess up floating islands and green fields. But after the 100th kill quest, even Nagrand loses its charm. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Burning Disappointment&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039; is the expansion that promised the moon and delivered a moldy cheese wheel. It’s a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and inject it with enough tedium, frustration, and sheer grinding hell to make players question their life choices. If you enjoy masochism, by all means, dive into this burning wreck. For everyone else, just remember: you were not prepared—for this level of disappointment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, here’s to &#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039;—the expansion that set the bar low and somehow managed to limbo under it. Bravo, Blizzard, bravo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Wrath Of The Lich King (WOTLK)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wrath of the lich king image.jpg|thumb|No, the server is not down, you&#039;re just lagging.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Wrath of the Lich King&#039;&#039;, the second expansion for World of Warcraft, is often hailed as one of the greatest expansions in MMO history. But let&#039;s be real – it&#039;s just another glorified excuse for Blizzard to squeeze more money out of their devoted player base. Grab your Frostmourne, kids, because we&#039;re about to hack and slash our way through the icy, overrated mess that is Northrend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Arthas, Arthas, Arthas&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, Arthas Menethil, the golden boy turned emo villain. If you thought his fall from grace in Warcraft III was melodramatic, wait until you see this expansion. The entire storyline revolves around this angsty prince who decided the best way to cope with his daddy issues was to plunge a sword into his heart and raise an undead army. Seriously, who hurt you, Arthas?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Boring Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; The quests are as repetitive as they come. &amp;quot;Go here, kill that, bring me 10 ghoul eyeballs.&amp;quot; The creativity is truly staggering.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pathetic Attempts at Drama:&#039;&#039;&#039; Every other quest tries to make you feel some sort of way about the tragic plight of Northrend. But let&#039;s be honest, the only tragedy here is the time you&#039;ll waste trying to care.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Frozen Wasteland of Tediousness&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Northrend – a continent so cold and dreary, it makes your heart freeze over. The zones are designed to be as inhospitable as possible, and not in a challenging way – just in a &amp;quot;why am I even here?&amp;quot; way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Borean Tundra vs. Howling Fjord:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard couldn&#039;t decide between two equally bland starting zones, so they gave us both. Spoiler alert: they both suck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grizzly Hills:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only redeeming quality here is the music. Otherwise, it&#039;s just another forest filled with things that want to kill you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home of the Lich King and the most anticlimactic endgame zone. It’s as if Blizzard threw every gothic trope into a blender and poured out this abomination.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: The Definition of Overhyped&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wrath of the Lich King is known for its dungeons and raids. But let’s call them what they really are: overly long, unimaginative time sinks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Naxxramas:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Let&#039;s recycle old content and call it nostalgia!&amp;quot; Brilliant idea, Blizzard. It&#039;s not like we’ve been here before or anything.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Ulduar:&#039;&#039;&#039; Okay, Ulduar was actually decent, but do we really need a raid that feels longer than a Tolkien novel?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trial of the Crusader:&#039;&#039;&#039; A single room raid. Need I say more?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown Citadel:&#039;&#039;&#039; The grand finale! Except the only thing grand about it is the amount of bugs and glitches you&#039;ll encounter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;PvP: Frostbitten Failures&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP in Wrath is like trying to have a snowball fight with icicles – painful and pointless. Wintergrasp, the so-called crown jewel of world PvP, is a laggy, chaotic mess where strategy goes to die.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Arena Seasons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when balance was a thing? Neither do we.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Battlegrounds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy the same old battlegrounds with a fresh coat of frost. Hooray for mediocrity!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Cold, Hard Truth&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Wrath of the Lich King is the expansion that brought us Northrend – a frozen hellscape filled with recycled content, tedious quests, and the whiniest villain in WoW history. If masochism is your thing, then by all means, dive into this glacier of disappointment. But don’t say we didn’t warn you – the only thing colder than the Lich King&#039;s heart is the feeling you’ll get when you realize how much time you’ve wasted. Enjoy the frostbite!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Cataclysm (Cata)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Cataclysm box art.png|thumb|Oh no, it&#039;s Deathwing!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;Cataclysm&#039;&#039;, the third expansion for World of Warcraft, where Blizzard Entertainment decided it was a great idea to take a sledgehammer to Azeroth and call it &amp;quot;content.&amp;quot; Released in 2010, this expansion is the gaming equivalent of inviting a bull into a china shop and then blaming the china for being too fragile. Buckle up, because we’re diving headfirst into this catastrophe with all the love and tenderness of a rhino in a rage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Apocalypse Now (But Make It Boring)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard&#039;s big idea for Cataclysm was to bring back Deathwing, a dragon so angry he makes your high school gym teacher look like Mr. Rogers. His grand entrance involved tearing the world apart because, apparently, dragon therapy wasn’t an option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Deathwing&#039;s Return:&#039;&#039;&#039; He’s back, he’s big, and he’s… really angry about something. Who cares why? Just know that he&#039;s here to wreck your favorite zones and make leveling even more tedious.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Changes:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard thought it would be fun to uproot your favorite nostalgic zones and replace them with watery graves and fiery wastelands. Enjoy questing in the once-beautiful Barrens, now with 100% more existential dread.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Rubble&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced several new gameplay mechanics, each one more exasperating than the last. If you thought leveling was a grind before, just wait until you try to make sense of this mess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Thrilling locales like Vashj&#039;ir, where you get to experience the joy of underwater combat, because fighting in three dimensions wasn’t enough of a headache already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Revised Old Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Say goodbye to the comforting familiarity of your favorite zones. Blizzard’s renovation project involved replacing everything you loved with lava, water, and more hostile NPCs. Thanks, Deathwing!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying in Azeroth:&#039;&#039;&#039; Finally, you can fly in the old world! Oh, wait, that just means you get to see the carnage from a bird’s eye view. Neat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Classes and Races: Tweaks Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced two new races: Worgen and Goblins. Because what WoW really needed was more furries and comic relief characters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Worgen:&#039;&#039;&#039; Ever wanted to play as a werewolf? No? Too bad. Now you can experience the joy of transforming into a hairy beast every time you get mildly annoyed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Goblins:&#039;&#039;&#039; These little green bundles of greed bring explosive fun and mind-numbing quests. Their starting zone is essentially a tutorial in how to blow things up and laugh about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: More Pain, Less Gain&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard really outdid themselves with Cataclysm’s dungeons and raids, creating content so grueling you’ll wish for the sweet release of death – or at least a decent loot drop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heroic Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Cataclysm’s dungeons were harder than trying to explain quantum physics to a toddler. Enjoy wiping repeatedly because apparently, fun is for the weak.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Raids:&#039;&#039;&#039; Think you’re tough? Cataclysm’s raids will disabuse you of that notion faster than you can say “gear check.” Welcome to the world of endless grinding and frustration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Chorus of Groans&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to Cataclysm was a symphony of sighs and groans, mixed with the occasional rage-quit. Blizzard’s grand experiment in world-breaking was met with all the enthusiasm of a root canal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Veteran Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Long-time players watched in horror as their beloved game was dismantled and rebuilt into something unrecognizable. Their feedback ranged from “What were they thinking?” to “Please, make it stop.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Newcomers were left bewildered, wondering if the pre-Cataclysm Azeroth was some kind of myth. Spoiler: It was real, and it was better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: The Cataclysmic Aftermath&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm will go down in history as the expansion that tried too hard and fell flat on its face. It’s a testament to what happens when developers decide to fix what wasn’t broken and break everything else in the process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re in the mood for a nostalgic trip through Azeroth’s most misguided renovation project, by all means, dive into Cataclysm. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you. Enjoy the carnage, and remember: sometimes, the best change is no change at all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Mists Of Pandaria (MOP)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Mists of pandaria box art.jpg|thumb|God help us all!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the World of Warcraft expansion that brought us pandas, beer, and an avalanche of disappointment. This 2012 masterpiece from Blizzard Entertainment was the epitome of &amp;quot;What were they thinking?&amp;quot; Let&#039;s dive into this hilarious, hate-filled critique of the expansion that turned Azeroth into a cuddly, bamboo-filled nightmare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandas: A Joke Gone Too Far&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Blizzard announced pandas as a playable race, it felt like the developers had thrown in the towel and decided to let their kids take over. Seriously, pandas? The epitome of laziness and the ultimate pacifists? Because nothing screams &amp;quot;epic fantasy&amp;quot; like a bunch of chubby bears who&#039;d rather munch on bamboo than engage in mortal combat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Kung Fu Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; is what happens when you binge-watch too many kung fu movies and decide to turn your MMORPG into a parody. The entire narrative revolves around the Pandaren, their idyllic, untouched continent, and the age-old battle between beer bellies and actual threats. It&#039;s like someone watched &#039;&#039;Kung Fu Panda&#039;&#039; and thought, &amp;quot;Yeah, let&#039;s make that our next billion-dollar expansion.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Bamboo Forest&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought previous expansions were grindy, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; said, &amp;quot;Hold my beer!&amp;quot; From endless dailies to rep grinds that made you question your life choices, this expansion was a masterclass in how to stretch minimal content over a maximum timeframe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Dailies Galore:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when you could log in and have fun? &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; introduced a plethora of daily quests that felt more like chores than adventures. Congratulations, you’ve been promoted to Azeroth’s errand boy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Rep Grinds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing says &amp;quot;engaging gameplay&amp;quot; like grinding reputation for factions that offer slightly better gear and cosmetic mounts. Who needs fun when you have repetitive tasks?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Zones: A Tourist Trap&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The zones in Pandaria are beautiful, vibrant, and about as deep as a kiddie pool. Sure, they&#039;re pretty to look at, but once you scratch the surface, you realize there’s about as much substance as a Hollywood blockbuster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Jade Forest:&#039;&#039;&#039; A zone so lush and green, you might forget you’re supposed to be slaying monsters and not on a nature hike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Valley of the Four Winds:&#039;&#039;&#039; The place where you can really get in touch with your inner farmer. Plowing fields and growing crops – because that’s what we signed up for in an MMORPG.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Kun-Lai Summit:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home to the great and wise Pandaren monks, who will bore you to death with their endless platitudes and fetch quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: Filler Content&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The raids and dungeons in &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; were a mixed bag of mediocrity. Some were decent, while others felt like recycled content thrown in to keep us busy while Blizzard figured out their next move.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mogu&#039;shan Vaults:&#039;&#039;&#039; A raid so forgettable, even the bosses seemed to lack enthusiasm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heart of Fear:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing strikes terror into the hearts of players like a raid that feels like a chore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Terrace of Endless Spring:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only thing endless here is the feeling of tedium as you slog through another uninspired raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Monk Class: Balance? What&#039;s That?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monks, the new class introduced in this expansion, were a lesson in imbalance. One minute you&#039;re a god among men, the next you&#039;re wondering if you accidentally unequipped all your gear. The class design swung wildly from overpowered to useless, leaving players dizzy and frustrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Pandaren Parody&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; will go down in history as the expansion that took itself way too seriously while simultaneously being a joke. It’s a love letter to all things ridiculous, a blend of gorgeous visuals and mind-numbing gameplay, and a testament to Blizzard&#039;s willingness to jump the shark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So here’s to you, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the expansion that gave us pandas, plowing fields, and a reason to seriously consider taking up a new hobby. If nothing else, you made us appreciate the good old days of WoW, when we were fighting actual threats and not getting lost in the bamboo forest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the most laughable chapter in &#039;&#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;&#039; history!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Warlords Of Draenor (WOD)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wod_box_art.jpg|thumb|Rage incarnate.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor (WoD)&#039;&#039;&#039;, the expansion that Blizzard Entertainment generously bestowed upon the World of Warcraft community in 2014. In their infinite wisdom, Blizzard decided that players didn’t need new content as much as they needed an expansion that felt like a hastily cobbled together fever dream. Strap in, dear reader, as we dive headfirst into this dumpster fire of an expansion, brimming with frustration, disappointment, and the faint scent of creative bankruptcy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Time Travel Nonsense&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remember when &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; had coherent storytelling? WoD laughs in the face of logic and consistency, tossing players into an alternate timeline where everything is somehow both familiar and utterly nonsensical. It’s like a bad fan fiction that somehow got greenlit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grommash Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Our favorite orc is back, but in an alternate universe where he’s even more insufferable. Because why not double down on a character nobody really wanted to see again?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrosh Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Yes, Garrosh is here too, because we all needed more of his daddy issues and genocidal tendencies. Thanks, Blizzard, for giving us more of what we never asked for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Alternate Draenor:&#039;&#039;&#039; A world that’s essentially Outland, but prettier and more pointless. It’s like paying for a remastered version of a game you never liked in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Garrisons Galore&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought you were signing up for epic battles and immersive quests, think again. WoD offers you the joy of micromanaging your very own garrison, because who wouldn’t want to play World of Warcraft: SimCity Edition?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrisons:&#039;&#039;&#039; A brilliant idea, executed with the finesse of a toddler with finger paint. You get to spend hours gathering resources, sending followers on missions, and watching paint dry. Thrilling!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Follower Missions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who needs actual gameplay when you can send NPCs to do everything for you? It’s like being the middle manager of Azeroth, minus the paycheck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Content Drought:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard promised a river of content, but all we got was a trickle. By the time you’re done with your garrison chores, you’ll realize there’s nothing else to do. It’s like they ran out of ideas and just hoped nobody would notice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: The Saving Grace&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even in this sea of mediocrity, there are a few islands of decency. The raids and dungeons in WoD are surprisingly well-designed, which only highlights how much better the expansion could have been if Blizzard had actually tried.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Highmaul:&#039;&#039;&#039; A decent raid that almost makes you forget the garbage fire outside. Almost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Blackrock Foundry:&#039;&#039;&#039; Another solid raid, proving that the dungeon design team is the only one that didn’t take an extended coffee break during development.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Lipstick on a Pig&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoD looks and sounds beautiful, which is the cruelest irony of all. It’s like putting a fresh coat of paint on a sinking ship. Sure, it’s pretty, but you’re still going down with the wreck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gorgeous environments and character models that make you wish there was more to do in this pretty, empty world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic scores that make you feel like you’re about to embark on a grand adventure, only to realize you’re just going back to your garrison to collect more herbs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Rage and Despair&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The player base’s reaction to WoD can best be described as a collective scream into the void. Forums were ablaze with complaints, and subscriber numbers plummeted faster than Blizzard’s standards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; WoD managed to drive away millions of players, proving that not even brand loyalty can save a bad expansion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Forums:&#039;&#039;&#039; A hotbed of rage, where every thread is a monument to Blizzard’s monumental screw-up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Obvious Conclusion: An Expansion Best Forgotten&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Warlords of Draenor is a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and turn it into a chore simulator. It’s a cautionary tale for game developers everywhere: don’t take your player base for granted, or you might just end up with a steaming pile of disappointment like WoD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re a masochist who enjoys being let down, by all means, dive into &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039;. For everyone else, steer clear and hope Blizzard learned their lesson.&lt;br /&gt;

===Legion [LEG]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Legion box art.jpg|thumb|right|Welcome to Legion. Don&#039;t forget to do your daily quests, noob.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Legion&#039;&#039;&#039;, the World of Warcraft expansion that promised to be the savior of Azeroth but ended up being the equivalent of inviting your in-laws for a weekend and them never leaving. Released in 2016, Legion is Blizzard’s attempt to milk the nostalgia of the Burning Crusade while introducing mechanics that make you want to smash your keyboard into a thousand pieces. Let&#039;s dive into this trainwreck, shall we?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Rehashing the Rehashed&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, the storyline! What a masterpiece of recycled plots and half-baked ideas. Legion brings back our old pal, the Burning Legion, because apparently, Blizzard ran out of new enemies and decided that the third time&#039;s the charm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan&#039;s Redemption:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who knew the angsty, blind anti-hero with a god complex needed redemption? Blizzard, that’s who. Illidan’s return is like finding out your ex is back in town and just as insufferable as ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Artifact Weapons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who needs originality when you can just give everyone a shiny weapon with the same backstory: &amp;quot;This weapon is super important, just trust us.&amp;quot; Oh, and don’t forget to grind endlessly to make it marginally better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Class Halls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The lazy man&#039;s Garrisons, where you can pretend to be important while sending minions on missions because actually playing the game is too mainstream.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: A Grind by Any Other Name&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion’s gameplay loop is like a hamster wheel designed by someone who hates hamsters. It&#039;s an endless cycle of grinding that leaves you wondering why you didn’t just take up knitting instead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; A fantastic way to disguise daily quests by making you travel longer distances for the same mundane tasks. Blizzard’s way of saying, “We know you love busywork.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mythic+ Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Perfect for those who enjoy the sensation of banging their head against a brick wall. Higher keys don’t mean more fun, just more chances for your group to screw up spectacularly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Legendaries:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[Jesus|RNG-esus]] has blessed us with a system where you either get an item that makes you a god or one that’s about as useful as a chocolate teapot. Praise be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Credit where it’s due, the visuals and sound in Legion are top-notch. It’s just a shame they’re wasted on content that makes you want to gouge your eyes out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Beautifully designed and visually stunning, the zones of Legion are the perfect backdrop for your suffering. Enjoy the sights as you contemplate your life choices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic and immersive, the soundtrack is a symphony of sorrow and regret, perfectly capturing the essence of your Legion experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Love to Hate It&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community&#039;s reaction to Legion has been a rollercoaster of emotions, mostly ranging from blind rage to begrudging acceptance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Haters:&#039;&#039;&#039; These folks believe Blizzard should’ve let the Burning Legion stay dead. Their forums posts are masterpieces of vitriol, each more scathing than the last.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Fanboys:&#039;&#039;&#039; Die-hard fans who defend Legion with the fervor of a zealot, claiming that “at least it’s better than Warlords of Draenor.” High praise indeed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;In The End: A Love-Hate Relationship&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion is the expansion that everyone loves to hate. It’s a mishmash of good ideas executed poorly, wrapped in a shiny package of nostalgia. It’s like Blizzard took a look at their greatest hits, remixed them, and then dropped the mic with a smug grin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re into endless grinding, recycled villains, and RNG loot that makes you question your sanity, then Legion is the expansion for you. Dive in, and enjoy the exquisite pain that only a Blizzard game can deliver. Cheers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Battle For Azeroth [BFA]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Battle for azeroth.jpg|thumb|Welcome to BFA. Your full time job.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Battle For Azeroth&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Battle for Azeroth (BFA), the expansion where Blizzard Entertainment decided to take everything we loved about World of Warcraft and throw it into a blender, hit puree, and serve it to us with a smile. Released in 2018, BFA promised epic faction warfare but delivered a steaming pile of mediocrity wrapped in grind and frustration. So, grab your popcorn and brace yourself for a brutally honest, hilariously scathing telling of one of the most hated expansions in WoW history.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: The Soap Opera Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, thought we needed more faction drama. The result? A storyline that makes daytime soap operas look like Shakespearean masterpieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Burning of Teldrassil:&#039;&#039;&#039; Nothing says &amp;quot;fun&amp;quot; like watching a beloved world tree go up in flames. Sylvanas goes full pyromaniac, and we’re supposed to feel… what? Empathy? Rage? Mostly, we just felt the urge to log out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Siege of Lordaeron:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sylvanas, now a discount Saturday morning cartoon villain, decides to play the “let’s gas everyone” card. It&#039;s like watching Wile E. Coyote with a more twisted sense of humor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Faction Pride:&#039;&#039;&#039; The so-called faction pride storyline was as forced as a toddler’s apology. Alliance vs. Horde? More like Player vs. Will to Live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: The Grind of a Lifetime&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039; was bad with its garrison chores, Battle for Azeroth takes grinding to a new level of hell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Azerite Armor:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let’s talk about the system that everyone loves to hate. Unlocking traits on Azerite gear was about as fun as a dental visit. Oh, joy, more grinding for RNG rewards!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Island Expeditions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Procedurally generated boredom at its finest. Collect Azerite! Fight NPCs! Repeat ad nauseam. They were supposed to be exciting, but were about as thrilling as watching paint dry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Warfronts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s answer to “What if we made PvE even more mind-numbing?” Warfronts were like playing a game of Risk, but with all the strategic depth of tic-tac-toe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd Syndrome&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To give credit where it’s due, the art team at Blizzard deserves a medal for polishing this turd. The zones are beautiful, the music is epic, and the cinematics are top-notch. But you know what they say, you can’t polish a turd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Stunning landscapes, rich details, and breathtaking visuals that make you wonder why the gameplay couldn’t match the graphics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sweeping scores that make you feel like you’re on an epic quest… until you remember you’re grinding Azerite in a repetitive, soul-crushing loop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Dumpster Fire&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to BFA can be summed up in one word: dumpster fire. Forums were ablaze with outrage, social media was a battleground of discontent, and even the most loyal fans found themselves questioning Blizzard’s sanity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; Players unsubscribed faster than rats fleeing a sinking ship. Blizzard’s answer? More grinding, because that’ll fix it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Feedback:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s response to feedback was like watching a deaf mime perform: utterly useless and slightly painful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Reality: An Epic Fail&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039; will go down in history as a masterclass in how not to design a game expansion. From the disastrous storyline to the mind-numbing grind, BFA managed to disappoint on every conceivable level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re looking for an expansion that promises epic warfare but delivers endless frustration, BFA is your ticket to misery. Here’s to hoping the next expansion is better – it can’t possibly be worse, right? Right!?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the unintentional comedy and the epic anti-climax that is &#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039;. May it rest in pieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Guilds ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Warcraft Mutant Cosplay.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Your typical &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; player. Note the mutated jawline and [[cosplay]] dress.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like every MMORPG, in order to see the vast majority of the game, players will need to join a guild. The purpose of a guild is to enable the guild master and his best friends to get run through the high level dungeons so they can gear up their characters, so they can go into the next dungeon and get the next set of gear for themselves. It is the responsibility of the other guild members to somehow get their own gear so they can help keep their online masters clothed in the most fashionable of equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Guilds tend to be a great source of drama, especially when epic loots are involved. Due to this, guilds seem to form up and dissolve every second.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, guilds go batshit insane clearing bosses, finishing content faster than Blizzard can hammer out. Butthurt about having to produce content while basement dwellers fork out $15 a month, Blizzard, being the Jews that they are, decided it was more cost effective and lulz inducing to drop the Banhammer on such guilds ([http://web.archive.org/web/1/http://www.wow.com/2010/02/04/ensidia-temporarily-banned-for-exploits/ 2010]) than create more content. Naturally, much drama ensued on the forums and many members threatened to stop their $15 a month subscription if their rightful loot was given back and ban&#039;s were lifted. Blizzard&#039;s response was the Banhammer to many other instigators of drama, solving many server capacity problems. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard is also strongly opposed to debugging software, and when glitches and exploits are reported they will drop the Banhammer rather than fix anything or admit their mistake. Whenever a Guild gets a &amp;quot;World First Kill&amp;quot;, they will be swiftly banned for awareness of numerous exploits. This is how the game is beta tested. This will happen repeatedly until the next 10 patches come out and no one can remember anything about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on RP (Roleplaying) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You might encounter more [[Shit nobody cares about|strict laws]] over guild names and their contents on roleplaying realms such as [[Argent Dawn (EU)]], where your guild name is forced to be IC ([[Serious Business|In character]]), otherwise the [[Nazis|Game Masters]] would not hesistate to punish you if [[Homosexuals|some player(s)]] report you. However, you might also notice some exceptional guilds on this merciless realm which shine like bright sun over all the darkness. A good example would be [[Argent_Dawn_(EU)#DEFNDERS_OF_HEV_RP|DEFNDERS OF HEV RP]]. These brave warriors are led by General Shikoradoro and his comrades; Röman, Philippson, [[Basement-dweller|Mythrios]] and countless number of other &#039;&#039;Doro&#039;&#039; members. They are type of guys that you will fucking hate and love at same time. They speak their own language called &amp;quot;Elwynnian&amp;quot; which is believed to be a dialect of Mongolian, but it&#039;s still quite different and unique. They mainly operate in wild Elwynn Forest, particularly in Stormwind City and Goldshire. Quite interdasting bunch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another interdasting example from the same realm would be The Stormguard. The Stormguard is a military roleplaying guild that basically does nothing but to walk around stormwind with big ass armor on their boosted characters. Led by a female character that has serious sexual issues and believes she&#039;s a man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvP (Player versus Player) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP guilds are generally regarded as badass and cool, but extraordinary types are present.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dara Mactire&#039;&#039;&#039;, or however the fuck it&#039;s spelled is a way too serious PvP guild located on the US realm Darkspear. I think, well they are everywhere now even on the EU. They are a bunch of nerds that think it&#039;s cool to add in way too serious dubstep intros with serious editing skills that form the word: Dara Mactire. Funnily, it was nothing until Swifty joined it and made it famous because of his fanboys wanting to be in the same guild as their hero. Yet, nobody even know who their fucking guild leader is as hes an ungreatful twat getting his guild famous without even making any kind of video to thank Swifty for promoting him from a loser to a even greater loser.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;A Bunch of Gankers&#039;&#039;&#039;, formerly called The Holy Half deads, is a bunch of people that never knew how to PvP yet wanting to believe they could, gathered in one single guild. So therefore it&#039;s an army of noobs that work like a zerg unit. Overwhelming their enemies by pure numbers. Their guild leader, whose name is Fail. Has been kicked out of several servers before, as they now are somewhere only higher powers knows. They will probably keep on changing realm as they get asskicked by every single pvp orientated guilds on each server.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvE (Player versus Environment) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This type of guilds are probably most common type of guilds you can find in any fucking realm. They are usually underestimated by PvPers and viewed as [[truth|pussies, losers, nerds and such]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Ensidia&#039;&#039;&#039;, or something, they change name the same often as normal people change their underwear. Is a guild filled of PvE noobs that are way too bad to even be serious and competitive PvPers so they try to look skilled and hardcore by focusing nobody else links to skill: PvElol. Their guild leader, Kungen, meaning king in Swedish has never ever even killed a player from the opposing faction. Not that he would be able too if he saw one, as mentioned, thats why he choose PvE. Because it&#039;s not enough to kill million fucking NPCs to reach the maximum level. They want to torment themselves by questing and doing worthless raids even more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Official WoW Forums ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with most good [[MMORPG]]s, &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; has its own public forums. Subscribers can discuss tactics, roleplay, offer up item trades and sales, and of course, bitch and moan about how the game sucks and everyone should be playing &#039;&#039;[[Warhammer]]&#039;&#039; instead. (Which they SHOULD be.) Chuck Norris jokes, horrifying roleplay, &amp;quot;hug a class&amp;quot; posts, trolling posts, worthless bug reports, really STUPID suggestions for future patches... All that and a bag of chips is what you&#039;ll find within these hallowed walls.&lt;br /&gt;

|We are aware of the concerns regarding situations where players are unable to zone into an instance due to an instance limit being hit, which results in a message stating that additional instances cannot be launched. This limit was implemented as a short-term solution to preserve the gameplay for players who are already in an instance and to prevent numerous issues that can happen when too many instances are active at the same time, but we are currently working on better solutions to ensure that players can get into instances when they want to.&lt;br /&gt;

|Let&#039;s see. $15.00 / month x 11,000,000 claimed subscribers....*mutters about math in public*....we&#039;re talking something like $165 million per month, which comes out near $2 billion per year, but they can&#039;t spring for some more instance servers? Guess we know what they think of us...&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some time after the release of the second expansion pack (see above), a massive &amp;quot;bug&amp;quot; was discovered in &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; wherein people could no longer gain their epic lewts. When a player tries to enter a dungeon portal, a large message will flash on their screen stating &amp;quot;Additional instances cannot be launched, please try again later&amp;quot;. Most people took great offense to this as they figured since they were giving Blizzard their money, they should be entitled to do what they want when they want how they want. The truth of the matter is that Blizzard&#039;s hardware just can&#039;t keep up with all the people &amp;quot;raiding&amp;quot; at the same time. Naturally, people just don&#039;t want to believe this due to the fact that Blizzard takes in at least $165,000,000 USD a month in revenue. ($15.00/month x 11 million people.) What people don&#039;t seem to realize is that Blizzard also wants people to GO OUTSIDE AND GET SOME FRESH AIR YOU FUCKING LOSERS.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== [[Shit|Blizzcon]], Also Where Nobody Gets Laid ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally WoW players will leave their homes for what the blue names call &amp;quot;Blizzcon&amp;quot;, and what WoW players call &amp;quot;5\/\/337 d00d&amp;quot;. Here, a large number of &amp;quot;WoW patients&amp;quot; can be seen. Their complications are diverse - ranging from mild conditions such as Carpal Tunnel and [[Leetspeak]], to a severe case of [[ugly]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Sometimes&#039;&#039; attractive people can be seen at a Blizzcon claiming to be WoW faggots. These are not really WoW faggots; they are models paid by Blizzard to appear at these pathetic vomit-inducing functions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzcon features a wide variety of activities;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Class Q+A: a forum for people who play hunters to make death threats to Metzen whenever playing their class approaches any kind of difficulty, and for ret paladins to complain that every class but them is OP because they died twice in a WSG last year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Lore Q+A: exactly as retarded as it sounds; a bunch of chinless, manboob-sporting retards screeching at Mezten because &amp;lt;strike&amp;gt;Thrall&#039;s&amp;lt;/strike&amp;gt; Jaina&#039;s left testicle is saggier in-game than it&#039;s described as being in the official novels.&lt;br /&gt;
* Dance Competition: an assortment of spastic, bony individuals who either do an extremely easy dance from the game or fail horribly at a more difficult one. On occasion a morbidly obese person will attempt one of the more athletic dances. The result is rather like watching a plane crash.&lt;br /&gt;
* Costume Contest: these deeply unattractive people are paraded in front of the crowd; the usual assortment being obese men in their twenties wearing paladin gear clearly made from ceral boxes; ugly girls who clearly worked very hard on their costumes but get no applause because they&#039;re not physically attractive, and sluts with shitty costumes who get a standing ovation because you can see their nipples, causing most of the crowd to go into a sort of feeding-frenzy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only reason to go to this convention is to seal the deal on finally quitting WoW, realizing that these are the horrible people you have been playing with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Addiction ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Divorce money.jpg|thumb|What you are doing when you buy WoW and these expansions]]&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|MMORPG Freak Out}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sufferers of the WoW addiction commonly refer to themselves as &amp;quot;WoWers&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;[[gamers|GamerZ]]&amp;quot;, or in the most severe cases as &amp;quot;Alliance&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Horde&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW addiction goes through several phases, phases of chemical drug addictions. This should comes as no surprise, as the Blizzard employees are reportedly paid in [[crack]]. WoW takes several steps beyond mundane addictions, with increasingly unstable behavior. If you have a friend or colleague whom you suspect of being a WoW addict, it is important to carefully gauge their level of addiction before taking any other action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Check their room for a &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot; box, subscription card, or wrist brace. Often early signs such as this can make all the difference, since while it&#039;s unlikely they will be cured, you can take action to prevent friends and loved ones from being infected.&lt;br /&gt;
* If you happen to walk in on a WoWer during on of their sessions, (as is most likely the case since that’s about all they ever do), DO NOT and I repeat &#039;&#039;&#039;DO NOT&#039;&#039;&#039;, interrupt the game. He may try to gank you with his replica sword he got at the Renfaire.&lt;br /&gt;
* It&#039;s entirely possible that you may catch a WoWer during an intense masturbation session (typically mid-cyber in the tram). You have been warned.&lt;br /&gt;
* From bank statements, see if they&#039;re buying from Chinese gold farmers. If you find this to be the case, you can be sure their addiction has taken precedence over any other financial considerations, and should immediately remove any items of value from anywhere in the area. Don&#039;t worry, they&#039;ll be too busy grinding to stop you.&lt;br /&gt;
* Severe addicts will commonly be in the habit of shitting in socks so as not to leave one&#039;s seat and thus get ganked by some level 23 loser. These hopeless cases are referred to as &amp;quot;poopsockers&amp;quot;, and should be &#039;&#039;&#039;terminated with extreme prejudice.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are but four cures for WoW addiction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Their self extermination. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Assisted extermination by a merciful soul. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Having a shred of willpower, and selling your account for many real dollars to some more-addicted sucker. Then you can buy delicious cake.&lt;br /&gt;
* Make them play &#039;&#039;[[Darkfall]]&#039;&#039; for a week. They&#039;ll be sure to never play MMORPGs ever again!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Players spend countless hours over this game. It will be hard to break them of their addiction, but in rare cases, if they kill themselves like [[Shawn Woolley]] did with EQ, you can Lysol their PC down and sell it. Sometimes some [[fags]] kill themselves just because they get so attached to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*There is however a risk with breaking a WoW players addiction by force. Certain under 18 players are prone to extreme meltdowns on the scale of Chernobyl. Scientists point to this phenomenon triggering when said players parents deny access to &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;. It is highly recommended that anyone living within the vicinity of said players immediately evacuate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Slavery ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:1271802961179.jpg|thumb|right|fuck dose whiteys ben racist1111]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Gold farmers warcraft.jpg|thumb|Farming is srs bzns for [[Azns]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Modern [[slaves|slavery]] is known as &amp;quot;Gold Farming&amp;quot; and is intended to keep the Yellow menace down. When the [[United States]] banned slavery, it was a very sad time for slave owners. Later, the black person started to demand reparations, so something &#039;&#039;simply had to be done.&#039;&#039; [[The Man]] decided that slavery had to be moved offshore, to ensure continued economic prosperity for [[Microsoft]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Farming has been around since before the Internet, but nobody could ever figure out how to grow money until &#039;&#039;[[Ultima_online|Ultima Online]]&#039;&#039; was invented. It isn&#039;t known who made the initial breakthrough, but it&#039;s thought that Alan Greenspan&#039;s lackeys were primarily responsible, since only they could have conceived of such a brilliantly sick and perverse means of enriching themselves. However, the advent of the practice was probably inevitable, since despite their addiction, WoWers often find themselves unable to play 24 hours a day and must find another way to continue while they sleep, eat, or go to the bathroom. So, for $0.50 per hour, a |barely-educated commie living in a sweaty room will play WoW for them. Needless to say, the commie himself earns roughly [[wat|$0.05 per week.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it&#039;s difficult for players to distinguish the gold-field workers from monkeys or robots. They often repeat the same mistakes and speak gibberish (like monkeys!) Work is being done to translate some of their [[moonspeak]]. Know your Chinaman by these phrases: &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;ni hao&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;[Krol Blade] ok??&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;water 1g?&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;is 4 guildie&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;deal giev ok??10g&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;tusoNgaMe $5 4 2thousand free!&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those that speak English become the &amp;quot;boss boss&amp;quot; and take all the money, while the slaves do all the work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Trolling Techniques ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Wikipedousersmall.png|thumb|Showing those fucking paladins how it&#039;s done.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These generate various effects - some bring lulz and some just [[fail]]. Experiment and find your own lulz. However, Blizzard, like most companies, disabled trade/chatroom from trial accounts, because of [[Chink]] gold farmers. A paid account is required for the best effort in [[lulz]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Set auto follow on new players; for whatever reason this really pisses people off.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join parties for dungeons as a healer and then leave about halfway through without saying anything. It works very well. Bonus points if you leave while your group is fighting the last boss of the dungeon.&lt;br /&gt;
# Lead a party into an instance and then randomly boot players from it.&lt;br /&gt;
# Start listing the name of movies with &amp;quot;Murloc&amp;quot; in the title like &#039;&#039;Indiana Murloc and The Temple of Doom&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;Debbie Does Murloc&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
# If Horde, start shit with people in Barrens chat. It&#039;s a non-PvP area filled with low level players, so they can&#039;t hurt you or retaliate. You can troll to your heart&#039;s content.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join battlegrounds at the lowest level possible, and start talking shit about how people have no fucking idea how to play the game.&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja any piece of loot. This will require a time investment, but if you steal the right piece of loot, you will ignite a shitstorm of drama that should keep you entertained for at least five minutes. You won&#039;t get banned as long you&#039;re not stupid enough to post loot rules in chat, GMs won&#039;t have anything to pin on you.&lt;br /&gt;
# Tell people what to do, and when they say you have no idea what you&#039;re on about, retaliate with &amp;quot;Your such a noob, I have five level 80&#039;s and three Death Knights, I know what I&#039;m talking about&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# When using the auction house, be sure to put up shit people need without buyout. Then pull it off the auction house before it sells - this is essentially the closest any WoW player gets to the transfer of goods between consenting individuals.&lt;br /&gt;
# Announce in trade chat that [name of player] is quitting WoW forever and is giving all their gold to the first person who whispers them!&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja a Bloody Apron as a rogue from a priest who doesn&#039;t need it but will whine to their guild to boot that rogue&lt;br /&gt;
# Link any item in trade chat, and state that the last person to link the same item will receive a large sum of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# When in dungeons as a hunter or rogue, use Misdirection or Tricks of the Trade on a healer and attack a large group of enemies.&lt;br /&gt;
# Play as a warlock and fear inside an instance, lulz and rage will ensue.&lt;br /&gt;
# Bitch loudly about how you can&#039;t spend achievement points.&lt;br /&gt;
# Spam trade chat with Anal then a spell, ability, quest, achievement etc &lt;br /&gt;
# Note that &#039;&#039;[[RuneScape]]&#039;&#039; is a much superior online game.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- # Point them to [http://wowflames.com Wowflames.com]! --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# As a priest, use Mind Control on other players when dueling on locations that have cliffs you can jump off and/or while waiting for zeppelins / boats to leave.&lt;br /&gt;
# Accuse all Worgen and Pandaren players of being [[furry|furries]]. This will always cause rage and lulz because it&#039;s [[fact|true]].&lt;br /&gt;
# As a Paladin Tank, use Divine Shield and watch the enemies kill your party members.&lt;br /&gt;
# Use the auction houses to rig the prices of basic items to the maximum amount of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# Roll need on as much loot as you can in groups.&lt;br /&gt;
# If you duel an opposing faction member in a neutral town, hit /forfeit the moment you get hit. It may not work anymore, but when it did, it caused a lot of lulz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Private Servers ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Private servers are available for poor people and unemployed losers that can&#039;t pay $15 per month for the retail version. The downside is that they are utterly glitched. It is not unusual that &#039;&amp;quot;instanced dungeons&amp;quot;&#039; (Special zones wherein most end game content can be found. They are fractioned into unique, temporary dimensions for each player, and can only be entered simultaneously by players with the help of Blizzard&#039;s &amp;quot;raid&amp;quot;- and &amp;quot;party&amp;quot; functions.) Private server providers compensate for their dysfunctional service by setting the experience point and item drop rate up to mega volume. There are two genres of private servers: &amp;quot;Funservers&amp;quot; where you instantly gain maximum level and can get the best gear from a vendor where you begin. Then there are the &amp;quot;blizzlike&amp;quot; servers which have a leveling rate that is five- or tenfolded. When you hit maximum level on a blizzlike server, you start roaming the world looking for some kind of glitch to gain treasure. After all, [[it&#039;s not a bug, it&#039;s a feature]]. Alternatively, you can [[lurk]] your private server&#039;s web forum to wait for the next official event. This consists of a private server admin summoning a boss which drops loot. If you get [[1337]] gear, you can brag to everyone in your guild, general chat and forum. Though, in the next day, the server and its data is probably gone forever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are pristine emulations of Blizzard&#039;s servers. However, they tend to vanish untraceable in the night. This is probably because they face Blizzard&#039;s judicial [[banhammer]]. [http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/05/blizzard-legal-targets-private-servers/ Blizzard targeted the fuck out of private servers. Oops.] There is also this cancerous blight known as &#039;&#039;Private&#039;&#039; Role-Playing servers. Filled with shitty admins and mind-crippled community, they are easy to troll while avoiding getting banned since their masterful devs only know how to edit posts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Je suis Nostalrius ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out of the mess of glitchy private servers out there, there is the occasional diamond in the rough. Nostalrius was that diamond.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike other private servers that were made to sidestep Blizzard&#039;s jewry, Nostalrius was meant to be a legacy server that provided a vanilla experience. Run by only thirty volunteers, they worked around the clock to maintain the server like it was an official server, and for a whole year, it was fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;What happen?&#039;&#039;&#039;: Blizzard caught wind that someone made a better service then them, and dropped the [[Lolsuit]] hard. Over a million accounts on the server were wiped, and the server was shut down. Another private server gone, so everything should be good right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, except for the fact that Nostalrius was a private legacy server, running in Vanilla WoW since new WoW has become a casualized mess. The server was created since Blizzard for whatever reason, refuses to create servers for nostalgia fags.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;youtube&amp;gt;XuOYmqSF6OQ&amp;lt;/youtube&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reaction over the shutdown was so massive, a civil war broke out in the toxic hellhole known as [http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1975197-Blizzard-shuts-down-Vanilla-Private-Server-Nostralius MMO-Champion], several Jewtubers (Including [[Jontron]] of all people) made angry rants, and another million players cancelled their future WoW subs. Great job Blizzard, that&#039;ll show those retards who just want a simple service that thirty people for free were providing.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{achtung|Playing World of Warcraft may cause insanity and an increased risk of turning into a basement-dwelling loot goblin.}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{breakingnews|Blizzard dropped the banhammer on Nostalrius. That&#039;ll surely get their seven million lost subs back!}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{spoilers|text=The grand twist in this game is that the real final boss is your own social life crumbling from neglect. Even the NPCs lead more exciting lives than you!!!}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to World of Warcraft (unironically shortened to &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot;), the digital wasteland where your dreams of heroism go to die and your patience is stretched thinner than the plot of a Michael Bay movie. Launched in 2004 by Blizzard Entertainment, WoW (as in WOW, my life went down the shitter) has managed to captivate millions of [[retards|players]] worldwide, mainly by trapping them in an [[real life|endless cycle of grinding and disappointment]]. With lore so convoluted and undecipherable, it would take eons for linguists around the world to actually understand what the actual fuck Chris Metzen snorted while &amp;quot;envisioning&amp;quot; this crap. It makes &#039;&#039;Silmarillion&#039;&#039; look like a five-minute bed time story specifically written for children with fragile x syndrome. Strap in, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the cesspool of Azeroth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Graphics: Ancient Relics ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Graphics—where mountains resemble freshly baked loaves of bread, and trees look like they&#039;re made from crumpled-up gift wrap. It&#039;s like Blizzard handed the development team a box of crayons from 2004 and said, &amp;quot;Go nuts!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The water? Oh, that&#039;s a masterpiece—who doesn&#039;t love reflective puddles that look like shiny plastic wrap stretched over Jell-O? And let&#039;s not forget the iconic NPC faces. It&#039;s like they all went to the same plastic surgeon who only knows two expressions: &amp;quot;I&#039;m slightly concerned&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;I just smelled a fart.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And then there’s the foliage! Nothing screams &amp;quot;immersive realism&amp;quot; like flat, paper-thin grass that clips through your boots as if it&#039;s given up on life. It&#039;s as if Azeroth is secretly sponsored by a discount origami company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The real charm, though, is in the armor design. Why does a shoulder piece for a level 20 character look like they’re carrying an entire medieval dining set on each shoulder? Practicality clearly isn’t a concern when you&#039;re walking around with shoulder pads so massive, you need FAA clearance to enter Stormwind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#039;s not overlook those classic textures. WoW&#039;s cobblestones look like someone smeared a JPEG from 1999 across the ground and called it a day. And yet, somehow, these low-res visuals still demand a gaming PC from NASA to hit 60 FPS during a raid. Truly, a marvel of modern optimization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay: Grind Until You Die ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft’s gameplay is like being handed a spoon and told to dig a hole to the center of the Earth, only to fill it back up again once you’re halfway there—or maybe it’s more like trying to empty an ocean with a leaky bucket while a crab bites your toes. In this epic fantasy realm, you’ll embark on “world-saving” quests, also known as glorified errands, like “Collect 10 bear asses.” Yes, bear asses—because apparently, in Azeroth, bears have somehow evolved to grow multiple asses, and you’re the only hero brave enough to harvest them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These “quests” are repetitive fetch missions that could easily be outsourced to any halfway competent NPC, but no, you are the chosen one—the bearer of buckets, the picker-upper of random crap, the unpaid intern of the gods. Every click of your mouse is a solemn reminder that you’re shelling out a monthly fee to perform glorified virtual chores. It’s like paying someone to let you vacuum their house.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And while you’re out there scraping bear asses and picking up literally glowing mushrooms, the so-called villains of the game are just chilling. These are the big bads who supposedly threaten the entire world, yet they’re hanging out in their dungeons like they’re at a company retreat. Surrounded by armies of overly enthusiastic minions who are just… standing there, waiting for you to arrive. Honestly, you could probably knock on their front door, and they’d open it like, “Oh good, you’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for someone to kill us for years.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But hey, it’s not all bad. At least you get to enjoy the satisfaction of grinding for hours to earn a shiny new sword that looks exactly like your last sword, except now it glows. Progress, baby. Welcome to World of Warcraft: where the real hero isn’t you—it’s your ability to endure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Leveling:&#039;&#039;&#039; Experience the joy of killing the same boar 10,000 times to gain a single level. It&#039;s like Groundhog Day, but without the comedic relief.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Raiding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gather a group of socially awkward strangers to take down a boss that drops gear you don’t need. If the game mechanics don&#039;t kill you, your teammates&#039; incompetence will.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;PvP:&#039;&#039;&#039; Dive into the world of PvP where balance is a myth and every rogue is a stealthy demon sent straight from hell to ruin your day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Storyline: A Soap Opera on Steroids ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of WoW is a convoluted mess that makes Days of Our Lives look like a masterpiece of coherent storytelling. Every expansion brings more plot twists and lore retcons than you can shake a stick at.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Factions:&#039;&#039;&#039; The eternal struggle between the Horde and the Alliance is like watching two toddlers fight over a toy – entertaining for a moment, but ultimately pointless and exhausting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Villains:&#039;&#039;&#039; From the Lich King to Sylvanas Windrunner, every villain is a misunderstood anti-hero with daddy issues. It&#039;s like Blizzard hired a team of therapists to write the lore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Community: A Hive of Scum and Villainy ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The WoW community is a mixed bag of elitists, trolls, and those poor souls who genuinely enjoy the game. The general chat is a cesspool of spam, political arguments, and unsolicited advice on how to play your class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Elitists:&#039;&#039;&#039; These players think they are gods among mortals, looking down upon anyone who dares to enjoy the game casually.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trolls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The bane of any online community, trolls in WoW are a special breed. They thrive on chaos and your tears, and they won’t stop until they’ve made you regret logging in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Updates: Or Lack Thereof ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard’s approach to updates can be summed up as “better late than never.” Each patch promises to fix what’s broken, but usually just introduces new ways to break the game. The developers&#039; motto seems to be, “If it ain&#039;t broke, we’ll fix that.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Microtransactions: Pay to Play, and Pay Some More ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Micro transactions wow.jpg|left|thumb|Buy, buy and buy some moar!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW has embraced microtransactions with the fervor of a televangelist asking for donations. Mounts, pets, character boosts – all available for the low, low price of your dignity. It’s like paying extra for the privilege of being disappointed faster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Main Idea: A Beautiful Disaster ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft is the ultimate exercise in masochism. It’s a beautifully designed trap that lures you in with promises of adventure and camaraderie, only to beat you down with endless grind and toxic community interactions. If you’re looking for a game that will suck away your time, money, and soul, then WoW is the perfect choice. Enjoy the ride to nowhere, because in the end, the real boss fight is against your own sense of self-worth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Starting zones.jpg|center|500px|Typical starting zones.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Races ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome, brave souls, to the sardonic safari of World of Warcraft’s races, where fantasy clichés meet the most ridiculous stereotypes the gaming world has to offer. Hold onto your keyboards as we dive into the wonderful, woeful world of Azeroth’s inhabitants. It’s time to see who really stands out… or in most cases, who stands way too far out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Alliance ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The so-called &amp;quot;noble&amp;quot; faction of World of Warcraft, where everyone is apparently too busy polishing their armor and patting themselves on the back to notice how insufferably pretentious they are. Gather &#039;round, dear reader, as we embark on a tour of this faction, which, quite frankly, could use a dose of humility and a reality check..&lt;br /&gt;

|The Humans. The race that defines &amp;quot;average&amp;quot; with all the enthusiasm of a damp sponge. They&#039;re the most generic fantasy fodder you can imagine: just your everyday medieval peasants with a king complex. Want to know what a human in WoW is like? Picture that guy in the office who thinks he&#039;s the main character in a dramatic novel &lt;br /&gt;

|Dwarves are basically hobbits with a drinking problem and a miner’s helmet. Imagine a group of guys who think &amp;quot;tall&amp;quot; is a cardinal sin and that “work” should be synonymous with “beer.” They’re short, they’re stout, and they’ve got a chip on their shoulder the size of their ego. Great at mining, terrible at everything else, especially personal hygiene.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow gnomes.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Gnomes: The Tiny Tech Terrorists&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Gnomes are the tiny tech enthusiasts of Azeroth, always tinkering with gadgets and gizmos. Their advanced intellect is overshadowed only by their insufferable personalities. They&#039;re like that annoying kid in class who always had to be right and corrected the teacher. Playing a gnome means embracing your inner know-it-all and annoying everyone in sight with your [[sarcasm|superior intellect]].&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Night elf wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Night Elves: The Tree-Hugging Hippies&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Night Elves, the ultimate eco-warriors who spend their days frolicking in forests and talking to animals. Their obsession with nature is so extreme, you half expect them to chain themselves to a tree in protest of logging. With their &amp;quot;shadowmeld&amp;quot; ability, they can disappear into the shadows – perfect for avoiding responsibility and accountability.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Space goats wow.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Draenei: The Holier-Than-Thou Space Goats&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

With their glowing eyes and incessant preaching about the Light, they’re basically the Jehovah’s Witnesses of WoW. If you enjoy lecturing others on virtue while ignoring your own flaws, then the Draenei are your kindred spirits.&lt;br /&gt;

|Worgen are the werewolf wannabes who can’t decide if they want to be human or beast. They spend half their time transforming and the other half brooding about their curse. Their duality is supposed to be intriguing but ends up being as exciting as a high school goth phase. Play a Worgen if you enjoy unnecessary drama and a perpetual identity crisis.&lt;br /&gt;

=== [[Afghanistan|The Horde]] ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ragtag group of misfits, outcasts, and supposed [[dipshits|badasses]] of the World of Warcraft universe. If ever there was a faction that embodies the chaotic energy of a middle school cafeteria, it&#039;s this one. Buckle up, because we&#039;re about to dive headfirst into the murky depths of this so-called &amp;quot;[[cringe|faction of honor and strength]]&amp;quot; – with a heavy dose of &amp;quot;fuck off&amp;quot; and a side of unfiltered disdain.&lt;br /&gt;

|Orcs are the muscle-bound meatheads of Azeroth. Their solution to every problem? Smash it. They’re constantly raging about honor and glory, which is just a thinly veiled excuse to punch things. If you like the idea of playing a character that’s one-dimensional and as subtle as a sledgehammer, orcs are your perfect match.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow troll.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Trolls: The Laid-Back Lunatics&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Red Eye&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Ganja slaying&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Da Voodoo Shuffle&lt;br /&gt;
|Trolls are the laid-back, rasta-loving lunatics who seem perpetually stoned. They have a &amp;quot;no worries&amp;quot; attitude about everything, even when being impaled by a sword. Their penchant for voodoo and cannibalism is charming in a sort of &amp;quot;we really don’t care&amp;quot; way. If you enjoy playing a character that’s as chill as a cucumber and as crazy as a coconut, trolls are your tribe.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Wow undead.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Forsaken: The Undead Angsty Teens&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Touch of the child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;5% forsaken child&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;amp;bull;&amp;amp;nbsp;Cannibalize&lt;br /&gt;
|The Forsaken are the edgy, undead rejects who are eternally angsty. Their leader, Sylvanas, is the queen of drama, and they follow her like loyal emo kids. They revel in decay and despair, making them the perfect choice for players who never outgrew their Hot Topic phase. If you like the idea of being perpetually pissed off and rotting from the inside out, Forsaken are your pick.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Tauren horde.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Tauren: The Bovine Philosophers&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|This race is the ideal race for [[furries]] and [[neckbeard|neckbeards]]. Half of the Tauren userbase will have the word &amp;quot;moo&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;cow&amp;quot; in their names because they think they are clever and internet-funny, when in reality they need to cut off circulation to their dick and set themselves on fire. Tauren are the gentle giants who love to wax philosophical about nature and balance. They’re basically cows with a conscience. Their slow, deliberate way of speaking and moving is perfect for players who enjoy a leisurely pace. If you want to play a character that’s big, bulky, and takes forever to make a decision, the Tauren are for you.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Blood elves.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Blood Elves: The Vain and the Vapid&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Blood Elves are the vain, pretty boys and girls of Azeroth. Obsessed with their looks and their magical addiction, they’re like the Kardashians of WoW. They’ve got a tragic backstory but are too busy checking their reflection to care. Play a Blood Elf if you enjoy being the center of attention and making everything about your narcissistic ass.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|[[File:Horde goblins.jpg|200px|center]]&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;Goblins: Fashion sense? Imagine if Liberace raided a scrapyard.&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|These pint-sized green disasters are the epitome of greed and avarice. Goblins don’t just love gold, they worship it like a deity, sacrificing dignity and common sense at the altar of profit margins. Their entire society is a grotesque parody of capitalism on steroids, where the only thing more explosive than their volatile gadgets are their profit margins.&lt;br /&gt;

=== The Neutral Race ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because Blizzard was too lazy, they decided to add a race for both faction on the Alliance and the Horde, and made this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Wow_panda.jpg|center|500px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those portly, panda-like creatures that stumbled into the World of Warcraft universe like a drunken uncle at a family reunion. Who thought it was a good idea to blend Kung Fu Panda with your epic fantasy world? Someone at Blizzard must have had a few too many drinks at the company party. Buckle up, folks, because we&#039;re about to embark on a journey through the bamboo-infested, beer-swilling nightmare that is the Pandaren race in WoW.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So there you have it, the diverse (and dreadful) races of World of Warcraft. Each one is unique in its own special, irritating way. Whether you’re into the blandness of humans, the hippy-dippy Night Elves, or the high-maintenance Blood Elves, WoW has something to frustrate everyone. Enjoy your stay in Azeroth – you’ll need all the patience you can muster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Classes and Talents ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to the World of Warcraft, where fantasy meets reality, and gamers everywhere embark on epic quests to save Azeroth, all while living in their parents’ basements. But let’s be brutally honest – not all heroes are created equal. In fact, some of these classes are as balanced as a seesaw with an elephant on one end. So let&#039;s tear apart each class with brutal honesty and a pinch of hatred.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warrior.jpg|thumb|150px|A mighty [[faggot|warrior]], a projection of the [[you|player]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warrior: The Meatshield with Delusions of Grandeur&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warrior – the quintessential tank who believes that having a ton of armor and health somehow makes up for having the intelligence of a rock. Warriors charge into battle with the grace of a drunken elephant, swinging their oversized weapons while shouting incoherently. Their idea of strategy is to hit things harder and hope for the best. And let’s not forget their favorite pastime: complaining about not having enough heals, despite standing in every possible fire.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to scream &amp;quot;For the Horde!&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;For the Alliance!&amp;quot; while charging into battle.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re basically a glorified punching bag. Prepare for a lifetime of repair bills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arms:&#039;&#039;&#039; You use your fucking arms, spin like a ballerina and die constantly. &lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fury:&#039;&#039;&#039; Grants warriors to equip a giant dong in each hand, so they have an easier time being faggots. Remember to always use raging blowjob when you have 2 charges.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; A curious name for this, as these are the biggest AIDS on this planet. Nobody knows how to play them, so expect your group to fail every time this is the tank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow paladin.jpg|thumb|left|150px|[[sarcasm|A righteous Paladin]]. Notice how he walks in his own piss to convey superiority.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Paladin: The Self-Righteous Zealot&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Paladins are the holy knights of Azeroth, wielding both a sword and a Bible, ready to smite evil and preach about the Light. They come in three flavors: Tankadin, Healadin, and Retardin. Despite their shiny armor and holy auras, Paladins have an uncanny ability to be both invincible and utterly useless at the same time. Their primary skill? Spamming bubbles and judging everyone around them – both in and out of the game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You get to wear plate armor and heal yourself. Plus, bubble hearth!&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;ll spend half your time arguing about whether you&#039;re a healer or a tank. &lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Spoiler:&#039;&#039; you&#039;re whatever your group needs, you walking [[tool|utility belt.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Retribution:&#039;&#039;&#039; If you choose this branch, just start over. The goal of this class is to get holy power, then spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, spend it, get holy power, kill yourself, spend it, get holy power...&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Protection:&#039;&#039;&#039; The tank of the game. Which is not saying much. Basically, whilst in a fight you get an extra five seconds of life. It&#039;s the kind of thing where you think you&#039;re getting the best of the best, but is really isn&#039;t much different. Only good for raids and tanking. Also enjoy your 1 million life points, and your zero real life points.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Absolutely useless. Can&#039;t heal. Can&#039;t do any damage. Needs to do damage to heal. The damage will suck, and your teammates will scream at you because you used an offensive move, so that you could use your defensive skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow hunter.jpg|thumb|150px|The hunter, the perpetual [[dumbass|dazed and confused]] DPS class that has no idea what to do.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Hunter: The AFK Champion&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hunters, the masters of ranged combat and pet management – or so they claim. In reality, Hunters are known for two things: pulling extra mobs and being perpetually AFK. Their pets have a mind of their own, often running off to aggro entire dungeons while the Hunter is busy texting their girlfriend. They also have a talent for misdirecting bosses onto healers, proving that the real hunt is for competent group members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can solo almost anything with your trusty pet. Also, feign death is the perfect &amp;quot;I didn&#039;t sign up for this&amp;quot; button.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Everyone assumes you’re just mashing buttons while watching Netflix. And let&#039;s be honest, you probably are.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Beast Mastery:&#039;&#039;&#039; These hunters have wonderful sexual experiences with their pets, which motivates their pets to fight harder. Take this if you are a furry. Your pets can fight on their, so you don&#039;t even need to be in the game, which is a plus.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Marksmanship:&#039;&#039;&#039; Expect to do less than the other huntards if you choose this, as it absolutely blows the ass.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Survival:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOL TRAPS ARE ABSOLUTELY USELESS.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow priest.jpg|thumb|left|150px|A typical WoW priest realizing everyone knows his dark secret a.k.a kiddie fondling.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Priest: The Masochistic Medic&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Priests are the backbone of any raid group, providing healing and buffs to keep everyone alive. They come in two flavors: Holy and Shadow. Holy Priests are the altruistic healers who enjoy being yelled at for not healing fast enough, while Shadow Priests are the edgy teens who channel dark powers and constantly remind you of their &amp;quot;deep, dark pain.&amp;quot; Either way, playing a Priest means accepting that no one will appreciate you until you stop healing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You&#039;re the group&#039;s lifeline. No priest, no raid. Instant ego boost.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Prepare to hear &amp;quot;heal plz&amp;quot; more times than you can count. And when things go south, it’s always your fault, faggot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Discipline:&#039;&#039;&#039; So I herd you like shielding. Now you can shield while you shield while you shield in a shield.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Holy:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let me heal you child, just step into this dark basement.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Shadow:&#039;&#039;&#039; Years of raping kids has not paid off, as this is the weakest DPS class. Expect everyone to pass you in instances.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow mage.jpg|thumb|150px|Totally not a Wizard.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Mage: The Glass Cannon&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Mages are the epitome of high-risk, high-reward gameplay. They can dish out incredible damage with spells like Fireball and Frostbolt, but they have the survivability of a wet paper bag. Mages spend half their time nuking enemies from a safe distance and the other half running away screaming when anything gets too close. Their greatest contribution to any group? Free food and portals – because nothing says &amp;quot;master of the arcane&amp;quot; like being a glorified vending machine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Teleports and portals save you a fortune in travel costs. And who doesn&#039;t love setting things on fire?&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; You’re about as durable as wet tissue paper. Get used to mobs wiping their ass with you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Arcane:&#039;&#039;&#039; Maintain your mana. Don&#039;t move, ever. Do this and you will win the DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Fire:&#039;&#039;&#039; Wait for Pyroblast to proc. Spam other abilities that don&#039;t do shit. Wait for Pyroblast.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE. ICE... AND ICE.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow shaman.jpg|thumb|left|150px|It&#039;s a known fact Shamans sweat cum.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Shaman: The Elemental Hipster&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Shamans are the spiritual guides who wield the powers of the elements – fire, water, air, and earth. They have the unique ability to drop totems that provide buffs or annoy everyone with unnecessary clutter. Shamans are often seen in the back, frantically trying to keep their totems from being destroyed while everyone else wonders what they actually do. They claim to bring balance to the group, but mostly they bring confusion and misplaced expectations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; Totems, totems everywhere. Plus, you get to yell &amp;quot;It&#039;s clobberin&#039; time!&amp;quot; while dual-wielding.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Juggling totems is about as fun as herding cats. And you&#039;ll always be the &amp;quot;off-healer&amp;quot; in raids.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Enhancement:&#039;&#039;&#039; Similar to Beast Mastery hunter, except Shamans are specific and only do it with wolves. This is for retards who still want to do high DPS.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Piss on everybody to heal them. Occasionally drops a magic dildo which floods the area with cum.&lt;br /&gt;
:#&#039;&#039;&#039;Elemental:&#039;&#039;&#039; These shamans are similar to Arcane Mages, except they can move earth with their dildos. Use lava.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow druid.jpg|thumb|150px|A druid realizing he [[cum|jizzed in his pants]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Druid: The Jack of All Trades, Master of None&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Druids are the ultimate utility class, able to shapeshift into various forms to fulfill different roles. They can tank, heal, and deal damage – all while looking like they got lost on their way to a nature documentary. However, their versatility comes at a cost: they’re mediocre at everything. Druids spend most of their time arguing about which form is best and why they’re not being appreciated for their &amp;quot;amazing flexibility.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pros:&#039;&#039;&#039; You can be a bear, a cat, a bird, and a tree—all in one day. Flexibility is your middle name.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Cons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Jack of all trades, master of none. And good luck keeping track of all your forms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Balance (BOOMKIN):&#039;&#039;&#039; YOU TURN INTO A GIANT SPACE-CHICKEN AND SHOOT FUCKING LASERS EVERYWHERE THAT DON&#039;T DO ANY DAMAGE&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Restoration:&#039;&#039;&#039; Giant wooden dildo that heals people by throwing leaves at them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Feral:&#039;&#039;&#039; Either a cute kitten that requires everything to bleed or a giant motherfucking pedobear who is only useful as a meatshield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow warlock.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Crazy, evil, socipaths that consider torture a hobby.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warlock: The Soul-Sucking Sociopath&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warlocks are the goth kids of Warcraft, summoning demons and casting curses while everyone else wonders if they’re secretly plotting to destroy the world. They revel in the misery of others, draining life and mana with glee. Warlocks can summon powerful pets, but they’re mostly known for dotting everything in sight and then laughing maniacally as their enemies wither away. Their main weakness? Explaining why they chose to play such an obviously evil class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Affliction:&#039;&#039;&#039; You specialize in giving AIDS and cancer to all fucking players while slowly sucking their cock.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Demonology:&#039;&#039;&#039; Same as Beast Mastery hunters, except warlocks prefer demons and necrophilia over animals.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Destruction:&#039;&#039;&#039; Set everything ablaze. Enjoy getting raped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow rogue.jpg|thumb|150px|Rogues do it from behind.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Rogue: The Backstabbing Bandit&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Rogues live in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to stab you in the back – much like your ex. These sneaky bastards are great at dealing massive damage, then vanishing before anyone can retaliate. Their playstyle revolves around stealth, deceit, and looting all the good stuff while everyone else is fighting. Rogues often remind us that trust issues aren&#039;t just for relationships.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Assassination:&#039;&#039;&#039; wanna-be-Ezio, but in reality, a shitty spec no one plays with, because why would you want to poison someone when you can sinister strike them?&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Combat:&#039;&#039;&#039; You sinister strike them.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Subtlety:&#039;&#039;&#039; Subtlety rogues sneak upon people and give them surprise buttsecks.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Death Knight: The Edgelord Extraordinaire&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Death Knights are the dark, brooding anti-heroes of Warcraft, resurrected to serve the Lich King and then deciding they’d rather just sulk around Azeroth. With abilities like Death Grip and Army of the Dead, they excel at making every fight as chaotic as possible. Their aesthetic screams &amp;quot;I shop exclusively at Hot Topic,&amp;quot; and their gameplay revolves around being as edgy and misunderstood as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Blood:&#039;&#039;&#039; GAY HOMOSEXUAL FAGGOT who can tank bosses. Can heal himself better than a raid-geared healer could, which of course makes them [[no|very balanced]] in PvP.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Frost:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy doing less damage than the tank spec.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Unholy:&#039;&#039;&#039; As a good whore DK is, unholy DKs spread all the fucking diseases from syphilis to chlamydia to their opponents while buttfucking their ghouls. Completely useless. Does even less damage than Blood and Frost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow monk.jpg|thumb|150px|Guys, the Monk is drunk again...]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Monk: The Confused Contender&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Monks are the newest addition to the World of Warcraft class lineup, bringing martial arts and chi energy to the mix. They punch, kick, and heal their way through dungeons, all while trying to figure out why they were added to the game in the first place. Monks have a unique playstyle that involves rolling around and drinking mysterious brews, which leads many to wonder if they’re actually just drunken brawlers who stumbled into Azeroth by accident.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Brewmaster:&#039;&#039;&#039; LOLLLLLLL SO FUCKING DRUNK :PPPPPPPP THESE MOBS CANT EVEN HANDLE ME RIGHT NOW&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Mistweaver:&#039;&#039;&#039; Healing mist, so creative Blizzard. Oh, and some fucking orbs, too.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&#039;&#039;&#039;Windwalker:&#039;&#039;&#039; Typical wanna-be-JackieChan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Demon Hunter: The One-Trick Pony&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Typical wow demon hunter.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Notice the gun as most people imagine themselves acutally playing the [[DOOM]] guy, or is it just [[you]]?]]&lt;br /&gt;
Demon Hunters are the rockstars of WoW, with flashy abilities and a brooding backstory that screams &amp;quot;look at me.&amp;quot; They excel at doing one thing: dealing damage. With abilities like Eye Beam and Metamorphosis, they make sure everyone knows they’re the center of attention. However, their reliance on mobility and damage output makes them fragile and predictable. Once the novelty wears off, Demon Hunters are just edgy night elves with a superiority complex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Overall:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
World of Warcraft classes are a testament to the game’s enduring appeal and its ability to attract both die-hard fans and relentless critics. Each class brings its own flavor of chaos, hilarity, and frustration to the game. Whether you love them or hate them, one thing’s for sure: WoW wouldn’t be the same without this motley crew of misfits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, next time you log in, take a moment to appreciate the absurdity and brilliance of the World of Warcraft classes. After all, it’s this delightful mess that keeps Azeroth spinning and the players coming back for more – even if it’s just to complain about how much they hate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Expansions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Burning Crusade (BC)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Burning crusade satire image.jpg|thumb|right|Grind, grind, grind, grind and grind, dipshits.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, The Burning Crusade—the first expansion for World of Warcraft, and arguably the game equivalent of a long, excruciating dentist appointment. Released in 2007, this expansion promised to bring thrilling new content and exciting adventures. What it delivered, however, was a cluster of frustration, recycled content, and enough player tears to fill the Great Sea. Strap in, because we&#039;re diving headfirst into this dumpster fire with all the love and hatred it deserves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: A Masterclass in Overcomplication&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, decided that the lore needed to be more convoluted than a soap opera. Enter the shattered world of Outland, where Illidan Stormrage, the original emo night elf, waits with a scowl that could rival your most disgruntled ex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember that badass anti-hero from Warcraft III? Well, prepare to see him reduced to a raid boss who gets beaten like a piñata. He&#039;s no longer the “You are not prepared!” legend, but rather the “Oh, you’re still here?” side note.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Blood Elves and Draenei:&#039;&#039;&#039; Two new races introduced to pad out the player base and offer more cringe-worthy RP possibilities. Blood Elves—because everyone wanted to play an elf with a superiority complex—and Draenei, the space goats who crash-landed into Azeroth with zero navigational skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Like a Rusty Gear&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought vanilla WoW had its grindy moments, The Burning Crusade takes it to a whole new level. Enjoy endless grinding for attunements, resist gear, and the eternal hell of daily quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Attunements:&#039;&#039;&#039; Want to raid? Be prepared to sell your soul for attunements that require you to jump through more hoops than a circus poodle. Let’s make this clear—no one, and I mean NO ONE, enjoys grinding for weeks just to step foot in a raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Reputation Grinding:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who doesn’t love spending countless hours doing repetitive tasks for factions that barely remember your name? Get ready to kill the same mobs over and over again in a mind-numbing loop of despair.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying Mounts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sure, they sound cool until you realize you’ll need to grind gold like a medieval peasant to afford one. The only thing more painful than getting your first flying mount is the repair bill after you crash it into the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039; Dungeons and Raids: Recycled Boredom &#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard must have really loved recycling because The Burning Crusade dungeons and raids feel like they were pulled straight out of the developer’s trash bin of ideas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Karazhan:&#039;&#039;&#039; A 10-man raid where you spend more time listening to ghostly opera performances than actually fighting bosses. The real challenge is staying awake through the endless trash mobs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep:&#039;&#039;&#039; Exciting in theory, monotonous in practice. Nothing says fun like fighting the same faceless, fish-headed murloc wannabes and robot chickens over and over again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Magtheridon’s Lair:&#039;&#039;&#039; Imagine Onyxia, but less interesting and with more cubes to click. Clicking cubes—because that&#039;s what we all signed up for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Wastelands of Despair&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Outland is a visually striking yet soul-sucking expanse of zones designed to test your patience and willingness to live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Hellfire Peninsula:&#039;&#039;&#039; Red, barren, and filled with boars on steroids. It’s as if Blizzard took Durotar, painted it red, and called it a day. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Zangarmarsh:&#039;&#039;&#039; Mushrooms, mushrooms everywhere. If you love fungi and humidity, this zone is your damp dream. Otherwise, it’s just a swampy mess that’s more confusing than enchanting. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*  &#039;&#039;&#039;Nagrand:&#039;&#039;&#039; The one saving grace, because even Blizzard couldn’t mess up floating islands and green fields. But after the 100th kill quest, even Nagrand loses its charm. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Burning Disappointment&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039; is the expansion that promised the moon and delivered a moldy cheese wheel. It’s a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and inject it with enough tedium, frustration, and sheer grinding hell to make players question their life choices. If you enjoy masochism, by all means, dive into this burning wreck. For everyone else, just remember: you were not prepared—for this level of disappointment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, here’s to &#039;&#039;The Burning Crusade&#039;&#039;—the expansion that set the bar low and somehow managed to limbo under it. Bravo, Blizzard, bravo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Wrath Of The Lich King (WOTLK)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wrath of the lich king image.jpg|thumb|No, the server is not down, you&#039;re just lagging.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;The Wrath of the Lich King&#039;&#039;, the second expansion for World of Warcraft, is often hailed as one of the greatest expansions in MMO history. But let&#039;s be real – it&#039;s just another glorified excuse for Blizzard to squeeze more money out of their devoted player base. Grab your Frostmourne, kids, because we&#039;re about to hack and slash our way through the icy, overrated mess that is Northrend.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Arthas, Arthas, Arthas&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, Arthas Menethil, the golden boy turned emo villain. If you thought his fall from grace in Warcraft III was melodramatic, wait until you see this expansion. The entire storyline revolves around this angsty prince who decided the best way to cope with his daddy issues was to plunge a sword into his heart and raise an undead army. Seriously, who hurt you, Arthas?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Boring Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; The quests are as repetitive as they come. &amp;quot;Go here, kill that, bring me 10 ghoul eyeballs.&amp;quot; The creativity is truly staggering.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Pathetic Attempts at Drama:&#039;&#039;&#039; Every other quest tries to make you feel some sort of way about the tragic plight of Northrend. But let&#039;s be honest, the only tragedy here is the time you&#039;ll waste trying to care.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Zones: Frozen Wasteland of Tediousness&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Northrend – a continent so cold and dreary, it makes your heart freeze over. The zones are designed to be as inhospitable as possible, and not in a challenging way – just in a &amp;quot;why am I even here?&amp;quot; way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Borean Tundra vs. Howling Fjord:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard couldn&#039;t decide between two equally bland starting zones, so they gave us both. Spoiler alert: they both suck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grizzly Hills:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only redeeming quality here is the music. Otherwise, it&#039;s just another forest filled with things that want to kill you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home of the Lich King and the most anticlimactic endgame zone. It’s as if Blizzard threw every gothic trope into a blender and poured out this abomination.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: The Definition of Overhyped&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wrath of the Lich King is known for its dungeons and raids. But let’s call them what they really are: overly long, unimaginative time sinks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Naxxramas:&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;quot;Let&#039;s recycle old content and call it nostalgia!&amp;quot; Brilliant idea, Blizzard. It&#039;s not like we’ve been here before or anything.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Ulduar:&#039;&#039;&#039; Okay, Ulduar was actually decent, but do we really need a raid that feels longer than a Tolkien novel?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Trial of the Crusader:&#039;&#039;&#039; A single room raid. Need I say more?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Icecrown Citadel:&#039;&#039;&#039; The grand finale! Except the only thing grand about it is the amount of bugs and glitches you&#039;ll encounter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;PvP: Frostbitten Failures&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP in Wrath is like trying to have a snowball fight with icicles – painful and pointless. Wintergrasp, the so-called crown jewel of world PvP, is a laggy, chaotic mess where strategy goes to die.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Arena Seasons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when balance was a thing? Neither do we.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Battlegrounds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Enjoy the same old battlegrounds with a fresh coat of frost. Hooray for mediocrity!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Cold, Hard Truth&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Wrath of the Lich King is the expansion that brought us Northrend – a frozen hellscape filled with recycled content, tedious quests, and the whiniest villain in WoW history. If masochism is your thing, then by all means, dive into this glacier of disappointment. But don’t say we didn’t warn you – the only thing colder than the Lich King&#039;s heart is the feeling you’ll get when you realize how much time you’ve wasted. Enjoy the frostbite!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Cataclysm (Cata)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Cataclysm box art.png|thumb|Oh no, it&#039;s Deathwing!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;Cataclysm&#039;&#039;, the third expansion for World of Warcraft, where Blizzard Entertainment decided it was a great idea to take a sledgehammer to Azeroth and call it &amp;quot;content.&amp;quot; Released in 2010, this expansion is the gaming equivalent of inviting a bull into a china shop and then blaming the china for being too fragile. Buckle up, because we’re diving headfirst into this catastrophe with all the love and tenderness of a rhino in a rage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Apocalypse Now (But Make It Boring)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard&#039;s big idea for Cataclysm was to bring back Deathwing, a dragon so angry he makes your high school gym teacher look like Mr. Rogers. His grand entrance involved tearing the world apart because, apparently, dragon therapy wasn’t an option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Deathwing&#039;s Return:&#039;&#039;&#039; He’s back, he’s big, and he’s… really angry about something. Who cares why? Just know that he&#039;s here to wreck your favorite zones and make leveling even more tedious.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Changes:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard thought it would be fun to uproot your favorite nostalgic zones and replace them with watery graves and fiery wastelands. Enjoy questing in the once-beautiful Barrens, now with 100% more existential dread.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Rubble&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced several new gameplay mechanics, each one more exasperating than the last. If you thought leveling was a grind before, just wait until you try to make sense of this mess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Thrilling locales like Vashj&#039;ir, where you get to experience the joy of underwater combat, because fighting in three dimensions wasn’t enough of a headache already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Revised Old Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Say goodbye to the comforting familiarity of your favorite zones. Blizzard’s renovation project involved replacing everything you loved with lava, water, and more hostile NPCs. Thanks, Deathwing!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Flying in Azeroth:&#039;&#039;&#039; Finally, you can fly in the old world! Oh, wait, that just means you get to see the carnage from a bird’s eye view. Neat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Classes and Races: Tweaks Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm introduced two new races: Worgen and Goblins. Because what WoW really needed was more furries and comic relief characters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Worgen:&#039;&#039;&#039; Ever wanted to play as a werewolf? No? Too bad. Now you can experience the joy of transforming into a hairy beast every time you get mildly annoyed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Goblins:&#039;&#039;&#039; These little green bundles of greed bring explosive fun and mind-numbing quests. Their starting zone is essentially a tutorial in how to blow things up and laugh about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dungeons and Raids: More Pain, Less Gain&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard really outdid themselves with Cataclysm’s dungeons and raids, creating content so grueling you’ll wish for the sweet release of death – or at least a decent loot drop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heroic Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Cataclysm’s dungeons were harder than trying to explain quantum physics to a toddler. Enjoy wiping repeatedly because apparently, fun is for the weak.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Raids:&#039;&#039;&#039; Think you’re tough? Cataclysm’s raids will disabuse you of that notion faster than you can say “gear check.” Welcome to the world of endless grinding and frustration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Chorus of Groans&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to Cataclysm was a symphony of sighs and groans, mixed with the occasional rage-quit. Blizzard’s grand experiment in world-breaking was met with all the enthusiasm of a root canal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Veteran Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Long-time players watched in horror as their beloved game was dismantled and rebuilt into something unrecognizable. Their feedback ranged from “What were they thinking?” to “Please, make it stop.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;New Players:&#039;&#039;&#039; Newcomers were left bewildered, wondering if the pre-Cataclysm Azeroth was some kind of myth. Spoiler: It was real, and it was better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: The Cataclysmic Aftermath&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cataclysm will go down in history as the expansion that tried too hard and fell flat on its face. It’s a testament to what happens when developers decide to fix what wasn’t broken and break everything else in the process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re in the mood for a nostalgic trip through Azeroth’s most misguided renovation project, by all means, dive into Cataclysm. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you. Enjoy the carnage, and remember: sometimes, the best change is no change at all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Mists Of Pandaria (MOP)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Mists of pandaria box art.jpg|thumb|God help us all!]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the World of Warcraft expansion that brought us pandas, beer, and an avalanche of disappointment. This 2012 masterpiece from Blizzard Entertainment was the epitome of &amp;quot;What were they thinking?&amp;quot; Let&#039;s dive into this hilarious, hate-filled critique of the expansion that turned Azeroth into a cuddly, bamboo-filled nightmare.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Pandas: A Joke Gone Too Far&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Blizzard announced pandas as a playable race, it felt like the developers had thrown in the towel and decided to let their kids take over. Seriously, pandas? The epitome of laziness and the ultimate pacifists? Because nothing screams &amp;quot;epic fantasy&amp;quot; like a bunch of chubby bears who&#039;d rather munch on bamboo than engage in mortal combat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Storyline: Kung Fu Pandaren&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The storyline of &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; is what happens when you binge-watch too many kung fu movies and decide to turn your MMORPG into a parody. The entire narrative revolves around the Pandaren, their idyllic, untouched continent, and the age-old battle between beer bellies and actual threats. It&#039;s like someone watched &#039;&#039;Kung Fu Panda&#039;&#039; and thought, &amp;quot;Yeah, let&#039;s make that our next billion-dollar expansion.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Grinding Through the Bamboo Forest&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought previous expansions were grindy, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; said, &amp;quot;Hold my beer!&amp;quot; From endless dailies to rep grinds that made you question your life choices, this expansion was a masterclass in how to stretch minimal content over a maximum timeframe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Dailies Galore:&#039;&#039;&#039; Remember when you could log in and have fun? &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; introduced a plethora of daily quests that felt more like chores than adventures. Congratulations, you’ve been promoted to Azeroth’s errand boy!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Rep Grinds:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing says &amp;quot;engaging gameplay&amp;quot; like grinding reputation for factions that offer slightly better gear and cosmetic mounts. Who needs fun when you have repetitive tasks?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Zones: A Tourist Trap&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The zones in Pandaria are beautiful, vibrant, and about as deep as a kiddie pool. Sure, they&#039;re pretty to look at, but once you scratch the surface, you realize there’s about as much substance as a Hollywood blockbuster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Jade Forest:&#039;&#039;&#039; A zone so lush and green, you might forget you’re supposed to be slaying monsters and not on a nature hike.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Valley of the Four Winds:&#039;&#039;&#039; The place where you can really get in touch with your inner farmer. Plowing fields and growing crops – because that’s what we signed up for in an MMORPG.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Kun-Lai Summit:&#039;&#039;&#039; Home to the great and wise Pandaren monks, who will bore you to death with their endless platitudes and fetch quests.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: Filler Content&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The raids and dungeons in &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; were a mixed bag of mediocrity. Some were decent, while others felt like recycled content thrown in to keep us busy while Blizzard figured out their next move.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mogu&#039;shan Vaults:&#039;&#039;&#039; A raid so forgettable, even the bosses seemed to lack enthusiasm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Heart of Fear:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because nothing strikes terror into the hearts of players like a raid that feels like a chore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Terrace of Endless Spring:&#039;&#039;&#039; The only thing endless here is the feeling of tedium as you slog through another uninspired raid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;The Monk Class: Balance? What&#039;s That?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monks, the new class introduced in this expansion, were a lesson in imbalance. One minute you&#039;re a god among men, the next you&#039;re wondering if you accidentally unequipped all your gear. The class design swung wildly from overpowered to useless, leaving players dizzy and frustrated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Conclusion: A Pandaren Parody&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; will go down in history as the expansion that took itself way too seriously while simultaneously being a joke. It’s a love letter to all things ridiculous, a blend of gorgeous visuals and mind-numbing gameplay, and a testament to Blizzard&#039;s willingness to jump the shark.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So here’s to you, &#039;&#039;Mists of Pandaria&#039;&#039; – the expansion that gave us pandas, plowing fields, and a reason to seriously consider taking up a new hobby. If nothing else, you made us appreciate the good old days of WoW, when we were fighting actual threats and not getting lost in the bamboo forest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the most laughable chapter in &#039;&#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;&#039; history!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Warlords Of Draenor (WOD)===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Wod_box_art.jpg|thumb|Rage incarnate.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor (WoD)&#039;&#039;&#039;, the expansion that Blizzard Entertainment generously bestowed upon the World of Warcraft community in 2014. In their infinite wisdom, Blizzard decided that players didn’t need new content as much as they needed an expansion that felt like a hastily cobbled together fever dream. Strap in, dear reader, as we dive headfirst into this dumpster fire of an expansion, brimming with frustration, disappointment, and the faint scent of creative bankruptcy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Time Travel Nonsense&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remember when &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; had coherent storytelling? WoD laughs in the face of logic and consistency, tossing players into an alternate timeline where everything is somehow both familiar and utterly nonsensical. It’s like a bad fan fiction that somehow got greenlit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Grommash Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Our favorite orc is back, but in an alternate universe where he’s even more insufferable. Because why not double down on a character nobody really wanted to see again?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrosh Hellscream:&#039;&#039;&#039; Yes, Garrosh is here too, because we all needed more of his daddy issues and genocidal tendencies. Thanks, Blizzard, for giving us more of what we never asked for.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Alternate Draenor:&#039;&#039;&#039; A world that’s essentially Outland, but prettier and more pointless. It’s like paying for a remastered version of a game you never liked in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: Garrisons Galore&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought you were signing up for epic battles and immersive quests, think again. WoD offers you the joy of micromanaging your very own garrison, because who wouldn’t want to play World of Warcraft: SimCity Edition?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Garrisons:&#039;&#039;&#039; A brilliant idea, executed with the finesse of a toddler with finger paint. You get to spend hours gathering resources, sending followers on missions, and watching paint dry. Thrilling!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Follower Missions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who needs actual gameplay when you can send NPCs to do everything for you? It’s like being the middle manager of Azeroth, minus the paycheck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Content Drought:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard promised a river of content, but all we got was a trickle. By the time you’re done with your garrison chores, you’ll realize there’s nothing else to do. It’s like they ran out of ideas and just hoped nobody would notice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Raids and Dungeons: The Saving Grace&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even in this sea of mediocrity, there are a few islands of decency. The raids and dungeons in WoD are surprisingly well-designed, which only highlights how much better the expansion could have been if Blizzard had actually tried.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Highmaul:&#039;&#039;&#039; A decent raid that almost makes you forget the garbage fire outside. Almost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Blackrock Foundry:&#039;&#039;&#039; Another solid raid, proving that the dungeon design team is the only one that didn’t take an extended coffee break during development.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Lipstick on a Pig&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoD looks and sounds beautiful, which is the cruelest irony of all. It’s like putting a fresh coat of paint on a sinking ship. Sure, it’s pretty, but you’re still going down with the wreck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Gorgeous environments and character models that make you wish there was more to do in this pretty, empty world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic scores that make you feel like you’re about to embark on a grand adventure, only to realize you’re just going back to your garrison to collect more herbs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Rage and Despair&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The player base’s reaction to WoD can best be described as a collective scream into the void. Forums were ablaze with complaints, and subscriber numbers plummeted faster than Blizzard’s standards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; WoD managed to drive away millions of players, proving that not even brand loyalty can save a bad expansion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Forums:&#039;&#039;&#039; A hotbed of rage, where every thread is a monument to Blizzard’s monumental screw-up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Obvious Conclusion: An Expansion Best Forgotten&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Warlords of Draenor is a masterclass in how to take a beloved game and turn it into a chore simulator. It’s a cautionary tale for game developers everywhere: don’t take your player base for granted, or you might just end up with a steaming pile of disappointment like WoD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re a masochist who enjoys being let down, by all means, dive into &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039;. For everyone else, steer clear and hope Blizzard learned their lesson.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

===Legion [LEG]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Legion box art.jpg|thumb|right|Welcome to Legion. Don&#039;t forget to do your daily quests, noob.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Introduction&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Welcome to &#039;&#039;&#039;Legion&#039;&#039;&#039;, the World of Warcraft expansion that promised to be the savior of Azeroth but ended up being the equivalent of inviting your in-laws for a weekend and them never leaving. Released in 2016, Legion is Blizzard’s attempt to milk the nostalgia of the Burning Crusade while introducing mechanics that make you want to smash your keyboard into a thousand pieces. Let&#039;s dive into this trainwreck, shall we?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: Rehashing the Rehashed&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, the storyline! What a masterpiece of recycled plots and half-baked ideas. Legion brings back our old pal, the Burning Legion, because apparently, Blizzard ran out of new enemies and decided that the third time&#039;s the charm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Illidan&#039;s Redemption:&#039;&#039;&#039; Who knew the angsty, blind anti-hero with a god complex needed redemption? Blizzard, that’s who. Illidan’s return is like finding out your ex is back in town and just as insufferable as ever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Artifact Weapons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Because who needs originality when you can just give everyone a shiny weapon with the same backstory: &amp;quot;This weapon is super important, just trust us.&amp;quot; Oh, and don’t forget to grind endlessly to make it marginally better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Class Halls:&#039;&#039;&#039; The lazy man&#039;s Garrisons, where you can pretend to be important while sending minions on missions because actually playing the game is too mainstream.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: A Grind by Any Other Name&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion’s gameplay loop is like a hamster wheel designed by someone who hates hamsters. It&#039;s an endless cycle of grinding that leaves you wondering why you didn’t just take up knitting instead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;World Quests:&#039;&#039;&#039; A fantastic way to disguise daily quests by making you travel longer distances for the same mundane tasks. Blizzard’s way of saying, “We know you love busywork.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Mythic+ Dungeons:&#039;&#039;&#039; Perfect for those who enjoy the sensation of banging their head against a brick wall. Higher keys don’t mean more fun, just more chances for your group to screw up spectacularly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Legendaries:&#039;&#039;&#039; [[Jesus|RNG-esus]] has blessed us with a system where you either get an item that makes you a god or one that’s about as useful as a chocolate teapot. Praise be.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Credit where it’s due, the visuals and sound in Legion are top-notch. It’s just a shame they’re wasted on content that makes you want to gouge your eyes out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Zones:&#039;&#039;&#039; Beautifully designed and visually stunning, the zones of Legion are the perfect backdrop for your suffering. Enjoy the sights as you contemplate your life choices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Epic and immersive, the soundtrack is a symphony of sorrow and regret, perfectly capturing the essence of your Legion experience.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: Love to Hate It&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community&#039;s reaction to Legion has been a rollercoaster of emotions, mostly ranging from blind rage to begrudging acceptance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Haters:&#039;&#039;&#039; These folks believe Blizzard should’ve let the Burning Legion stay dead. Their forums posts are masterpieces of vitriol, each more scathing than the last.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Fanboys:&#039;&#039;&#039; Die-hard fans who defend Legion with the fervor of a zealot, claiming that “at least it’s better than Warlords of Draenor.” High praise indeed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;In The End: A Love-Hate Relationship&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Legion is the expansion that everyone loves to hate. It’s a mishmash of good ideas executed poorly, wrapped in a shiny package of nostalgia. It’s like Blizzard took a look at their greatest hits, remixed them, and then dropped the mic with a smug grin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re into endless grinding, recycled villains, and RNG loot that makes you question your sanity, then Legion is the expansion for you. Dive in, and enjoy the exquisite pain that only a Blizzard game can deliver. Cheers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Battle For Azeroth [BFA]===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Battle for azeroth.jpg|thumb|Welcome to BFA. Your full time job.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Battle For Azeroth&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Battle for Azeroth (BFA), the expansion where Blizzard Entertainment decided to take everything we loved about World of Warcraft and throw it into a blender, hit puree, and serve it to us with a smile. Released in 2018, BFA promised epic faction warfare but delivered a steaming pile of mediocrity wrapped in grind and frustration. So, grab your popcorn and brace yourself for a brutally honest, hilariously scathing telling of one of the most hated expansions in WoW history.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storyline: The Soap Opera Nobody Asked For&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard, in their infinite wisdom, thought we needed more faction drama. The result? A storyline that makes daytime soap operas look like Shakespearean masterpieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Burning of Teldrassil:&#039;&#039;&#039; Nothing says &amp;quot;fun&amp;quot; like watching a beloved world tree go up in flames. Sylvanas goes full pyromaniac, and we’re supposed to feel… what? Empathy? Rage? Mostly, we just felt the urge to log out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;The Siege of Lordaeron:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sylvanas, now a discount Saturday morning cartoon villain, decides to play the “let’s gas everyone” card. It&#039;s like watching Wile E. Coyote with a more twisted sense of humor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Faction Pride:&#039;&#039;&#039; The so-called faction pride storyline was as forced as a toddler’s apology. Alliance vs. Horde? More like Player vs. Will to Live.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Gameplay: The Grind of a Lifetime&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you thought &#039;&#039;Warlords of Draenor&#039;&#039; was bad with its garrison chores, Battle for Azeroth takes grinding to a new level of hell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Azerite Armor:&#039;&#039;&#039; Let’s talk about the system that everyone loves to hate. Unlocking traits on Azerite gear was about as fun as a dental visit. Oh, joy, more grinding for RNG rewards!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Island Expeditions:&#039;&#039;&#039; Procedurally generated boredom at its finest. Collect Azerite! Fight NPCs! Repeat ad nauseam. They were supposed to be exciting, but were about as thrilling as watching paint dry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Warfronts:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s answer to “What if we made PvE even more mind-numbing?” Warfronts were like playing a game of Risk, but with all the strategic depth of tic-tac-toe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Graphics and Sound: Polished Turd Syndrome&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To give credit where it’s due, the art team at Blizzard deserves a medal for polishing this turd. The zones are beautiful, the music is epic, and the cinematics are top-notch. But you know what they say, you can’t polish a turd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Visuals:&#039;&#039;&#039; Stunning landscapes, rich details, and breathtaking visuals that make you wonder why the gameplay couldn’t match the graphics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Music:&#039;&#039;&#039; Sweeping scores that make you feel like you’re on an epic quest… until you remember you’re grinding Azerite in a repetitive, soul-crushing loop.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Community Reaction: A Dumpster Fire&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The community’s reaction to BFA can be summed up in one word: dumpster fire. Forums were ablaze with outrage, social media was a battleground of discontent, and even the most loyal fans found themselves questioning Blizzard’s sanity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Unsubscribing:&#039;&#039;&#039; Players unsubscribed faster than rats fleeing a sinking ship. Blizzard’s answer? More grinding, because that’ll fix it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Feedback:&#039;&#039;&#039; Blizzard’s response to feedback was like watching a deaf mime perform: utterly useless and slightly painful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Reality: An Epic Fail&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039; will go down in history as a masterclass in how not to design a game expansion. From the disastrous storyline to the mind-numbing grind, BFA managed to disappoint on every conceivable level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, if you’re looking for an expansion that promises epic warfare but delivers endless frustration, BFA is your ticket to misery. Here’s to hoping the next expansion is better – it can’t possibly be worse, right? Right!?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers to the unintentional comedy and the epic anti-climax that is &#039;&#039;Battle for Azeroth&#039;&#039;. May it rest in pieces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Guilds ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Warcraft Mutant Cosplay.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Your typical &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; player. Note the mutated jawline and [[cosplay]] dress.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like every MMORPG, in order to see the vast majority of the game, players will need to join a guild. The purpose of a guild is to enable the guild master and his best friends to get run through the high level dungeons so they can gear up their characters, so they can go into the next dungeon and get the next set of gear for themselves. It is the responsibility of the other guild members to somehow get their own gear so they can help keep their online masters clothed in the most fashionable of equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Guilds tend to be a great source of drama, especially when epic loots are involved. Due to this, guilds seem to form up and dissolve every second.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally, guilds go batshit insane clearing bosses, finishing content faster than Blizzard can hammer out. Butthurt about having to produce content while basement dwellers fork out $15 a month, Blizzard, being the Jews that they are, decided it was more cost effective and lulz inducing to drop the Banhammer on such guilds ([http://web.archive.org/web/1/http://www.wow.com/2010/02/04/ensidia-temporarily-banned-for-exploits/ 2010]) than create more content. Naturally, much drama ensued on the forums and many members threatened to stop their $15 a month subscription if their rightful loot was given back and ban&#039;s were lifted. Blizzard&#039;s response was the Banhammer to many other instigators of drama, solving many server capacity problems. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzard is also strongly opposed to debugging software, and when glitches and exploits are reported they will drop the Banhammer rather than fix anything or admit their mistake. Whenever a Guild gets a &amp;quot;World First Kill&amp;quot;, they will be swiftly banned for awareness of numerous exploits. This is how the game is beta tested. This will happen repeatedly until the next 10 patches come out and no one can remember anything about it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on RP (Roleplaying) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You might encounter more [[Shit nobody cares about|strict laws]] over guild names and their contents on roleplaying realms such as [[Argent Dawn (EU)]], where your guild name is forced to be IC ([[Serious Business|In character]]), otherwise the [[Nazis|Game Masters]] would not hesistate to punish you if [[Homosexuals|some player(s)]] report you. However, you might also notice some exceptional guilds on this merciless realm which shine like bright sun over all the darkness. A good example would be [[Argent_Dawn_(EU)#DEFNDERS_OF_HEV_RP|DEFNDERS OF HEV RP]]. These brave warriors are led by General Shikoradoro and his comrades; Röman, Philippson, [[Basement-dweller|Mythrios]] and countless number of other &#039;&#039;Doro&#039;&#039; members. They are type of guys that you will fucking hate and love at same time. They speak their own language called &amp;quot;Elwynnian&amp;quot; which is believed to be a dialect of Mongolian, but it&#039;s still quite different and unique. They mainly operate in wild Elwynn Forest, particularly in Stormwind City and Goldshire. Quite interdasting bunch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another interdasting example from the same realm would be The Stormguard. The Stormguard is a military roleplaying guild that basically does nothing but to walk around stormwind with big ass armor on their boosted characters. Led by a female character that has serious sexual issues and believes she&#039;s a man.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvP (Player versus Player) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP guilds are generally regarded as badass and cool, but extraordinary types are present.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Dara Mactire&#039;&#039;&#039;, or however the fuck it&#039;s spelled is a way too serious PvP guild located on the US realm Darkspear. I think, well they are everywhere now even on the EU. They are a bunch of nerds that think it&#039;s cool to add in way too serious dubstep intros with serious editing skills that form the word: Dara Mactire. Funnily, it was nothing until Swifty joined it and made it famous because of his fanboys wanting to be in the same guild as their hero. Yet, nobody even know who their fucking guild leader is as hes an ungreatful twat getting his guild famous without even making any kind of video to thank Swifty for promoting him from a loser to a even greater loser.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;A Bunch of Gankers&#039;&#039;&#039;, formerly called The Holy Half deads, is a bunch of people that never knew how to PvP yet wanting to believe they could, gathered in one single guild. So therefore it&#039;s an army of noobs that work like a zerg unit. Overwhelming their enemies by pure numbers. Their guild leader, whose name is Fail. Has been kicked out of several servers before, as they now are somewhere only higher powers knows. They will probably keep on changing realm as they get asskicked by every single pvp orientated guilds on each server.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Guilds on PvE (Player versus Environment) realms ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This type of guilds are probably most common type of guilds you can find in any fucking realm. They are usually underestimated by PvPers and viewed as [[truth|pussies, losers, nerds and such]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Ensidia&#039;&#039;&#039;, or something, they change name the same often as normal people change their underwear. Is a guild filled of PvE noobs that are way too bad to even be serious and competitive PvPers so they try to look skilled and hardcore by focusing nobody else links to skill: PvElol. Their guild leader, Kungen, meaning king in Swedish has never ever even killed a player from the opposing faction. Not that he would be able too if he saw one, as mentioned, thats why he choose PvE. Because it&#039;s not enough to kill million fucking NPCs to reach the maximum level. They want to torment themselves by questing and doing worthless raids even more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The Official WoW Forums ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As with most good [[MMORPG]]s, &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; has its own public forums. Subscribers can discuss tactics, roleplay, offer up item trades and sales, and of course, bitch and moan about how the game sucks and everyone should be playing &#039;&#039;[[Warhammer]]&#039;&#039; instead. (Which they SHOULD be.) Chuck Norris jokes, horrifying roleplay, &amp;quot;hug a class&amp;quot; posts, trolling posts, worthless bug reports, really STUPID suggestions for future patches... All that and a bag of chips is what you&#039;ll find within these hallowed walls.&lt;br /&gt;

{{morphquote|AICBL|background-color: white; width:65%; height:auto|font-weight: bold;&lt;br /&gt;
|We are aware of the concerns regarding situations where players are unable to zone into an instance due to an instance limit being hit, which results in a message stating that additional instances cannot be launched. This limit was implemented as a short-term solution to preserve the gameplay for players who are already in an instance and to prevent numerous issues that can happen when too many instances are active at the same time, but we are currently working on better solutions to ensure that players can get into instances when they want to.&lt;br /&gt;
|Bornakk, a concerned GM&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|Bump. Please fix this. It&#039;s maddening and very, very frustrating. Sometimes I can get in an instance within a couple minutes and others it will take over an hour.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m okay with performance scaling - but, at least introduce a queue so we know how long it will be and don&#039;t have to keep going at the portal like a retarded dog jumping into a glass door.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Some time after the release of the second expansion pack (see above), a massive &amp;quot;bug&amp;quot; was discovered in &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039; wherein people could no longer gain their epic lewts. When a player tries to enter a dungeon portal, a large message will flash on their screen stating &amp;quot;Additional instances cannot be launched, please try again later&amp;quot;. Most people took great offense to this as they figured since they were giving Blizzard their money, they should be entitled to do what they want when they want how they want. The truth of the matter is that Blizzard&#039;s hardware just can&#039;t keep up with all the people &amp;quot;raiding&amp;quot; at the same time. Naturally, people just don&#039;t want to believe this due to the fact that Blizzard takes in at least $165,000,000 USD a month in revenue. ($15.00/month x 11 million people.) What people don&#039;t seem to realize is that Blizzard also wants people to GO OUTSIDE AND GET SOME FRESH AIR YOU FUCKING LOSERS.&lt;br /&gt;

== [[Shit|Blizzcon]], Also Where Nobody Gets Laid ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Occasionally WoW players will leave their homes for what the blue names call &amp;quot;Blizzcon&amp;quot;, and what WoW players call &amp;quot;5\/\/337 d00d&amp;quot;. Here, a large number of &amp;quot;WoW patients&amp;quot; can be seen. Their complications are diverse - ranging from mild conditions such as Carpal Tunnel and [[Leetspeak]], to a severe case of [[ugly]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Sometimes&#039;&#039; attractive people can be seen at a Blizzcon claiming to be WoW faggots. These are not really WoW faggots; they are models paid by Blizzard to appear at these pathetic vomit-inducing functions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blizzcon features a wide variety of activities;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Class Q+A: a forum for people who play hunters to make death threats to Metzen whenever playing their class approaches any kind of difficulty, and for ret paladins to complain that every class but them is OP because they died twice in a WSG last year.&lt;br /&gt;
* Lore Q+A: exactly as retarded as it sounds; a bunch of chinless, manboob-sporting retards screeching at Mezten because &amp;lt;strike&amp;gt;Thrall&#039;s&amp;lt;/strike&amp;gt; Jaina&#039;s left testicle is saggier in-game than it&#039;s described as being in the official novels.&lt;br /&gt;
* Dance Competition: an assortment of spastic, bony individuals who either do an extremely easy dance from the game or fail horribly at a more difficult one. On occasion a morbidly obese person will attempt one of the more athletic dances. The result is rather like watching a plane crash.&lt;br /&gt;
* Costume Contest: these deeply unattractive people are paraded in front of the crowd; the usual assortment being obese men in their twenties wearing paladin gear clearly made from ceral boxes; ugly girls who clearly worked very hard on their costumes but get no applause because they&#039;re not physically attractive, and sluts with shitty costumes who get a standing ovation because you can see their nipples, causing most of the crowd to go into a sort of feeding-frenzy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only reason to go to this convention is to seal the deal on finally quitting WoW, realizing that these are the horrible people you have been playing with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Addiction ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Divorce money.jpg|thumb|What you are doing when you buy WoW and these expansions]]&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|MMORPG Freak Out}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sufferers of the WoW addiction commonly refer to themselves as &amp;quot;WoWers&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;[[gamers|GamerZ]]&amp;quot;, or in the most severe cases as &amp;quot;Alliance&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Horde&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WoW addiction goes through several phases, phases of chemical drug addictions. This should comes as no surprise, as the Blizzard employees are reportedly paid in [[crack]]. WoW takes several steps beyond mundane addictions, with increasingly unstable behavior. If you have a friend or colleague whom you suspect of being a WoW addict, it is important to carefully gauge their level of addiction before taking any other action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Check their room for a &amp;quot;WoW&amp;quot; box, subscription card, or wrist brace. Often early signs such as this can make all the difference, since while it&#039;s unlikely they will be cured, you can take action to prevent friends and loved ones from being infected.&lt;br /&gt;
* If you happen to walk in on a WoWer during on of their sessions, (as is most likely the case since that’s about all they ever do), DO NOT and I repeat &#039;&#039;&#039;DO NOT&#039;&#039;&#039;, interrupt the game. He may try to gank you with his replica sword he got at the Renfaire.&lt;br /&gt;
* It&#039;s entirely possible that you may catch a WoWer during an intense masturbation session (typically mid-cyber in the tram). You have been warned.&lt;br /&gt;
* From bank statements, see if they&#039;re buying from Chinese gold farmers. If you find this to be the case, you can be sure their addiction has taken precedence over any other financial considerations, and should immediately remove any items of value from anywhere in the area. Don&#039;t worry, they&#039;ll be too busy grinding to stop you.&lt;br /&gt;
* Severe addicts will commonly be in the habit of shitting in socks so as not to leave one&#039;s seat and thus get ganked by some level 23 loser. These hopeless cases are referred to as &amp;quot;poopsockers&amp;quot;, and should be &#039;&#039;&#039;terminated with extreme prejudice.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are but four cures for WoW addiction:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Their self extermination. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Assisted extermination by a merciful soul. Preferably through fire.&lt;br /&gt;
* Having a shred of willpower, and selling your account for many real dollars to some more-addicted sucker. Then you can buy delicious cake.&lt;br /&gt;
* Make them play &#039;&#039;[[Darkfall]]&#039;&#039; for a week. They&#039;ll be sure to never play MMORPGs ever again!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Players spend countless hours over this game. It will be hard to break them of their addiction, but in rare cases, if they kill themselves like [[Shawn Woolley]] did with EQ, you can Lysol their PC down and sell it. Sometimes some [[fags]] kill themselves just because they get so attached to it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*There is however a risk with breaking a WoW players addiction by force. Certain under 18 players are prone to extreme meltdowns on the scale of Chernobyl. Scientists point to this phenomenon triggering when said players parents deny access to &#039;&#039;World of Warcraft&#039;&#039;. It is highly recommended that anyone living within the vicinity of said players immediately evacuate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Slavery ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:1271802961179.jpg|thumb|right|fuck dose whiteys ben racist1111]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Gold farmers warcraft.jpg|thumb|Farming is srs bzns for [[Azns]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Modern [[slaves|slavery]] is known as &amp;quot;Gold Farming&amp;quot; and is intended to keep the Yellow menace down. When the [[United States]] banned slavery, it was a very sad time for slave owners. Later, the black person started to demand reparations, so something &#039;&#039;simply had to be done.&#039;&#039; [[The Man]] decided that slavery had to be moved offshore, to ensure continued economic prosperity for [[Microsoft]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Farming has been around since before the Internet, but nobody could ever figure out how to grow money until &#039;&#039;[[Ultima_online|Ultima Online]]&#039;&#039; was invented. It isn&#039;t known who made the initial breakthrough, but it&#039;s thought that Alan Greenspan&#039;s lackeys were primarily responsible, since only they could have conceived of such a brilliantly sick and perverse means of enriching themselves. However, the advent of the practice was probably inevitable, since despite their addiction, WoWers often find themselves unable to play 24 hours a day and must find another way to continue while they sleep, eat, or go to the bathroom. So, for $0.50 per hour, a |barely-educated commie living in a sweaty room will play WoW for them. Needless to say, the commie himself earns roughly [[wat|$0.05 per week.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes it&#039;s difficult for players to distinguish the gold-field workers from monkeys or robots. They often repeat the same mistakes and speak gibberish (like monkeys!) Work is being done to translate some of their [[moonspeak]]. Know your Chinaman by these phrases: &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;ni hao&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;[Krol Blade] ok??&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;water 1g?&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;is 4 guildie&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;deal giev ok??10g&#039;&#039;,&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;tusoNgaMe $5 4 2thousand free!&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those that speak English become the &amp;quot;boss boss&amp;quot; and take all the money, while the slaves do all the work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Trolling Techniques ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Wikipedousersmall.png|thumb|Showing those fucking paladins how it&#039;s done.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These generate various effects - some bring lulz and some just [[fail]]. Experiment and find your own lulz. However, Blizzard, like most companies, disabled trade/chatroom from trial accounts, because of [[Chink]] gold farmers. A paid account is required for the best effort in [[lulz]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Set auto follow on new players; for whatever reason this really pisses people off.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join parties for dungeons as a healer and then leave about halfway through without saying anything. It works very well. Bonus points if you leave while your group is fighting the last boss of the dungeon.&lt;br /&gt;
# Lead a party into an instance and then randomly boot players from it.&lt;br /&gt;
# Start listing the name of movies with &amp;quot;Murloc&amp;quot; in the title like &#039;&#039;Indiana Murloc and The Temple of Doom&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;Debbie Does Murloc&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
# If Horde, start shit with people in Barrens chat. It&#039;s a non-PvP area filled with low level players, so they can&#039;t hurt you or retaliate. You can troll to your heart&#039;s content.&lt;br /&gt;
# Join battlegrounds at the lowest level possible, and start talking shit about how people have no fucking idea how to play the game.&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja any piece of loot. This will require a time investment, but if you steal the right piece of loot, you will ignite a shitstorm of drama that should keep you entertained for at least five minutes. You won&#039;t get banned as long you&#039;re not stupid enough to post loot rules in chat, GMs won&#039;t have anything to pin on you.&lt;br /&gt;
# Tell people what to do, and when they say you have no idea what you&#039;re on about, retaliate with &amp;quot;Your such a noob, I have five level 80&#039;s and three Death Knights, I know what I&#039;m talking about&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# When using the auction house, be sure to put up shit people need without buyout. Then pull it off the auction house before it sells - this is essentially the closest any WoW player gets to the transfer of goods between consenting individuals.&lt;br /&gt;
# Announce in trade chat that [name of player] is quitting WoW forever and is giving all their gold to the first person who whispers them!&lt;br /&gt;
# Ninja a Bloody Apron as a rogue from a priest who doesn&#039;t need it but will whine to their guild to boot that rogue&lt;br /&gt;
# Link any item in trade chat, and state that the last person to link the same item will receive a large sum of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# When in dungeons as a hunter or rogue, use Misdirection or Tricks of the Trade on a healer and attack a large group of enemies.&lt;br /&gt;
# Play as a warlock and fear inside an instance, lulz and rage will ensue.&lt;br /&gt;
# Bitch loudly about how you can&#039;t spend achievement points.&lt;br /&gt;
# Spam trade chat with Anal then a spell, ability, quest, achievement etc &lt;br /&gt;
# Note that &#039;&#039;[[RuneScape]]&#039;&#039; is a much superior online game.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- # Point them to [http://wowflames.com Wowflames.com]! --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# As a priest, use Mind Control on other players when dueling on locations that have cliffs you can jump off and/or while waiting for zeppelins / boats to leave.&lt;br /&gt;
# Accuse all Worgen and Pandaren players of being [[furry|furries]]. This will always cause rage and lulz because it&#039;s [[fact|true]].&lt;br /&gt;
# As a Paladin Tank, use Divine Shield and watch the enemies kill your party members.&lt;br /&gt;
# Use the auction houses to rig the prices of basic items to the maximum amount of gold.&lt;br /&gt;
# Roll need on as much loot as you can in groups.&lt;br /&gt;
# If you duel an opposing faction member in a neutral town, hit /forfeit the moment you get hit. It may not work anymore, but when it did, it caused a lot of lulz.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Private Servers ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Private servers are available for poor people and unemployed losers that can&#039;t pay $15 per month for the retail version. The downside is that they are utterly glitched. It is not unusual that &#039;&amp;quot;instanced dungeons&amp;quot;&#039; (Special zones wherein most end game content can be found. They are fractioned into unique, temporary dimensions for each player, and can only be entered simultaneously by players with the help of Blizzard&#039;s &amp;quot;raid&amp;quot;- and &amp;quot;party&amp;quot; functions.) Private server providers compensate for their dysfunctional service by setting the experience point and item drop rate up to mega volume. There are two genres of private servers: &amp;quot;Funservers&amp;quot; where you instantly gain maximum level and can get the best gear from a vendor where you begin. Then there are the &amp;quot;blizzlike&amp;quot; servers which have a leveling rate that is five- or tenfolded. When you hit maximum level on a blizzlike server, you start roaming the world looking for some kind of glitch to gain treasure. After all, [[it&#039;s not a bug, it&#039;s a feature]]. Alternatively, you can [[lurk]] your private server&#039;s web forum to wait for the next official event. This consists of a private server admin summoning a boss which drops loot. If you get [[1337]] gear, you can brag to everyone in your guild, general chat and forum. Though, in the next day, the server and its data is probably gone forever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are pristine emulations of Blizzard&#039;s servers. However, they tend to vanish untraceable in the night. This is probably because they face Blizzard&#039;s judicial [[banhammer]]. [http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/05/blizzard-legal-targets-private-servers/ Blizzard targeted the fuck out of private servers. Oops.] There is also this cancerous blight known as &#039;&#039;Private&#039;&#039; Role-Playing servers. Filled with shitty admins and mind-crippled community, they are easy to troll while avoiding getting banned since their masterful devs only know how to edit posts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Je suis Nostalrius ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Out of the mess of glitchy private servers out there, there is the occasional diamond in the rough. Nostalrius was that diamond.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike other private servers that were made to sidestep Blizzard&#039;s jewry, Nostalrius was meant to be a legacy server that provided a vanilla experience. Run by only thirty volunteers, they worked around the clock to maintain the server like it was an official server, and for a whole year, it was fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;What happen?&#039;&#039;&#039;: Blizzard caught wind that someone made a better service then them, and dropped the [[Lolsuit]] hard. Over a million accounts on the server were wiped, and the server was shut down. Another private server gone, so everything should be good right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, except for the fact that Nostalrius was a private legacy server, running in Vanilla WoW since new WoW has become a casualized mess. The server was created since Blizzard for whatever reason, refuses to create servers for nostalgia fags.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&amp;lt;youtube&amp;gt;XuOYmqSF6OQ&amp;lt;/youtube&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reaction over the shutdown was so massive, a civil war broke out in the toxic hellhole known as [http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1975197-Blizzard-shuts-down-Vanilla-Private-Server-Nostralius MMO-Champion], several Jewtubers (Including [[Jontron]] of all people) made angry rants, and another million players cancelled their future WoW subs. Great job Blizzard, that&#039;ll show those retards who just want a simple service that thirty people for free were providing.&lt;br /&gt;
