yep the same , be scared lol
btw tauren rogues !
It honestly just sounds like a title in name only, like they originally gave that woman who was supposed to be co-lead of blizzard or whatever after they got rid of the 'you think you do but you dont' guy (bad with names atm, sorry). We later find out that she was getting paid significantly less and had less responsibilities yet held the same title as the guy....I suppose only time will tell since it sounds like the Microsoft acquisition wont be finalized until the end of the year if I'm reading things correctly (someone can clarify).
Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.
That's OK...Bill will just incorporate all of the Blizzard titles into his metaverse and watch the money roll in......

It is the direction the entire genre has moved to though, and one in which WoW has actually lagged behind. Doesn't surprise me at all with the loss of income the game has incurred recently that they would hire someone to bring in the $$$$$$. This is not about making WoW great again, it's about making great WoW money again.
I get it, it's a business....but if only these publishers realized great games that make you want to play a long time are a better investment than a cash shop.
Lol

He got the job by mistake or machination, but by now he's there as Bolvar on the Frozen Throne. A job nobody in Activision wants or could do thanks to their creative bankruptcy and general state, he runs the company's C-team and tries to hold the undead game together.
Makes you think, doesn't it, if this is the "best" in the WoW team... Perhaps he'd have left WoW ages ago, everyone knows how bad he is at it, but I don't think he is allowed to, short of leaving the company altogether.
I think they just wanted to put a woman on the position. I personally have not played EQ or other games when she was controlling what goes on in them so I have nothing against her, I also don't play Retail WoW since Cataclysm and the only entertainment I get from it is watching it burn and how much worse can it get, I only play Vanilla WoW on private servers. Maybe it's like you say - her presence will improve things, maybe they will stay the same, maybe they will get worse.
Do those that don't raid need as good gear as those that do?
The implication is that gear earned in raids will be better than that not, which to me is reasonable as one must face lesser challenges to get it.
I thought earning better gear through raids was typical in games that have them.
