@Jormundgard

I live in the Irvine, CA area and i know a handful of individuals at various levels in Blizzard. And from my observations you're right to some extent, but I wonder if it's just us outsiders who assume that working at Blizzard is just going to be like blowjobs and cake everyday. When in reality it comes down to the fact that it's just another job.

The people i

A friend of mine recently had a chance to talk to one of the major honchos of Blizzard at some sort of dinner function (I think it was with Mike Morhaime). One of the shocking comments he made was that, in these lower introductory positions, they intentionally hire people with a serious passion for the game partly because they are willing to work for a lower salary. This wasn't the part he

Never did the nobelgarden event in WoW. Don't think I'm missing anything.

Nerf Paladins.

Woohoo. Borderline racism as well - nice one.

if your inlaws are japanese it absolutely makes it okay. But only if you're white.

If you're not white you're as much a loser as a white person living in their white mom's basement.

GL on moving.

And Noble Gardens is quite 'ok' imho. At least I can get the achievement without putting in a gazillion hours of farming RNG crap.
This one you'll have after a few hours of farming, no RNG for a candybag with another RNG to get that candyheart you need for the meta. Luckily Blizzard realized this as well, and fixed it for most holiday achievements.

But it

They need to make a ganking holiday that gives nifty rewards. Or make it like every other friday or something. "Go to redridge mountains and kill 25 lower level characters." or something.

Bring back true world PVP imo.

I can't decide if I like or hate Noblegarden. On the one hand, mindlessly camping eggs for hours is the suck. On the other hand, at least the holiday isn't 100% reliant on RNG like all the previous holidays that had to be hotfixed.

I would like Noblegarden much better if you got actual chocolates.

I'm pretty neutral to it otherwise. It's easy enough to ignore and I don't feel that I have to gather up a group and go endlessly farm some boring boss (which I never much liked in other holidays).

I wish I could nuke the starting areas from space though, and get all the egg collectors in a single nuke.

Noblegarden hurts, I'm just not feeling it. Next Moonglade holiday though, that will be fun. Should be able to summon Eranikus by then.

Finding new ways to impede the mindless farming of others makes my day.
