    Honest Trailers were done by completely different people since then. And the quality dropped massively.
    One of the founders (Andy Signore) of Screen Junkies (who started Honest Trailers) was fired because of the apparent sexual harrassment and such he was supposedly doing. Honest Trailers stopped for a while, but other than him, it's still the same writers. Though all they seem to do anymore is Honest Trailers and Honest Trailers Commentary. I see no Movie Fights or the Hal Rudnik stuff anymore. As for Honest Game Trailers (which is done seperately from Honest Trailers), I honestly couldn't say. I haven't watched any of them since it was taken away from Smosh Games. This was the first one I have watched since then. If this is the quality of them, they have gone downhill badly.

    I wasn't really a fan of Classic (though I am the guy who buffs everyone I pass), as the gameplay of a Classic Paladin is atrocious to me (I prefer the changes they did in TBC, making protection paladin, my preferred playstyle, an actual viable thing). I found this video was rather terrible. I laughed a couple times, but overall was garbage, especially compared to previous ones. It might just be the voice guy they used, and his delivery just isn't the best.

    I"m impressed.

    AH changes are significant. But everyone here's just complaining about the stupid video. Not one mention about the actual game changes coming.

    That "first one up first one sold" thing is... odd. :/ So now instead of constant watchers undercutting by a penny it will be constant watchers trying to get the latest post up to get sold faster?

    And buying partial stacks?! Just seems like a nightmare on the seller side - and an easy way to troll target people. Buying partial stacks (like only 4/5 or 19/20 causing people to have to constantly relist since single stacks won't stand.

    But ...uhh.. ok. Just wierd options to play with.

    you may have replied to the wrong post. This one is about the Honest Game Trailers video, not the new updates from today.

    Probably because it's about the temporarily hyped game, WoW Classic. Boring at its core, any review, even a joke one is bound to be... meh.

    Eh, not so much funny as just simply the truth I guess .

    I'm not sure if you played Vanilla, but the toolkit of Vanilla paladin is exactly why I rolled rogue on Classic. Vanilla's Paladin design was literally a last minute redrawing of the entire core systems in the last two weeks before launch, so quickly, that most of the systems were listed entirely wrong in the Prima Strategy guides that launched with the game.

    It was a broken mess, to such a degree some people believe it was deliberate... I would suggest trying out a rogue though. If you've played retribution on retail its pretty similar in overall resource mechanics (which is also why I abhor the Holy Power system to begin with, but that's for another topic thread).

    My preferred paladin is protection, which is absolute garbage in classic. I never really liked ret, and like you I absolutely abhor holy power (which is why I basically quit my paladin in Cata, Pandaria, and Draenor after getting him to max). I did make a rogue on classic, though.

    I'm late as hell to comment, but I finally saw this today during lunch and almost choked on my falafel.
