    And LFR is strictly played for items that we are giving players to obtain elsewhere. And like I said more than 30% of players AFK and do not engage whilst in an LFR instance and most of the others are in a rush making it, generally, a negative experience. Giving the opportunity to obtain likeminded gear elsewhere whilst increasing accessibility to Normal raiding was the way forward for us when making the decision
    What about that cool portfolio eh?

    With my portfolio comes a reveal to my identity. Something, due to clear reasons, can't happen.

    Prior to Blizzard I worked for an indie Xbox 360 company.

    So what’s the consensus on this? Sorry, but I’ll ask for tl;dr updates every few hours because I cannot keep track of this thread while progressing in Elden Ring, lol.
    There is a leak named Dragonflight and someone larping as a dev, but it's almost all bullshit, the only thing we know for sure is the name is Dragonflight and there is a potentially real image of it leaked.

    Please refer to countless prior posts about how me and co-workers spent time amusing ourselves in the office. If you look, we sprinkled real information in these "leaks" and we actually really enjoyed doing so.

    Jesus christ, you need to get some professional help man.

    AFAIK, the only thing close to it was Overwatch 2 stuff and dates. Something I'd be willing to say have changed.

    I think the truth is more likely that both are leaks are fake that got something right as an overall general plot. But honestly, even when Blizzard does the expansion that players expect, it's generally not done in the way players expect them so I'd not expect "common fan guesses and theories" to hit the mark.

    No wonder you got laid off if that's how you were spending your time working.

    Oh we larping today huh ... lmao

    People have always tended to swerve towards the cool sounding leaks. In reality it's a company of people just working for money. We are forced upon with great goals that cannot be completed. The game is not being made to be the best it can be. It's simply being made. It's genuinely a joke at this point.

    Funny, because while Dave's supposed sprinkle hint of a level squish was posted in October 2019...

    The actual confirmation of a level squish was in June. https://www.wowhead.com/news/level-s...-survey-292286

    Doodle something new not in your typical style and post it. Should be easy enough.

    Ye ye. Disgruntled ex-employee wronged by big corpos is on a revenge path by leaking us next expansion. Go stand in line behind the guy whose uncle talked to Ion in the bar last night.

    This thread is popping off indeed.

    Sometimes, the light of the moon is a key to other spaces. I've found a place where, for a night or two, the streets curve in unfamiliar ways. If I walk here, I might find insight, or I might be touched by madness.

    Why would you say that you're worried about revealing your identity and then give us a hint that could potentially be used to figure out your identity?
