The Razer Naga…a mere whisper of those words and I can hear nothing but “click, click, click,” for hours as we fight together under the blue and gold Alliance banner in the name of good King Varian Wyrnn, first of his name.
Okay, so maybe the title is a cheap jab, but I guess it’s warranted considering the game’s primary input mode is left-clicks from the handy mouse. Surely, though, there must be a much deeper level of gameplay to be found here beneath the hack and slash simplicity?
If you've used one of these before, you've already mastered the central gameplay mechanic.
So, for those of you expecting a champ review on Lulu, I’m going to have to kill-errr, ‘disappoint’ you (your brain’s knack for living, that is). I’m a bit angry at LoL for that champion, so you’ll have to wait another week for my nerves to calm before I review her (yes, I’ve played her. No, I don’t like her…yet. And yes, I hate squirrels.). I was going to review her, buuut…
This week on The Voice, I discuss the sweeping changes made to World of Warcraft and the effects they have had/will have on lowbies and new players.

For me, like most others, WoW patch time is a bittersweet sensation. I know there is new and exciting content on the way, but there’s always a lingering feeling of… “doom,” I suppose. I have been playing WoW for a very long time now, and it seems with every patch after the Burning Crusade has been released hasn’t been very fulfilling. Pre-BC patches were exciting and new. They released major content updates, one example being patch 1.12 which introducing a revamped PvP system and the PvP armor that started it all. But after the expansion, eh… new dungeons, nerfs, buffs, we know the drill. At first it was nice; a new dungeon with every major patch is good stuff, but it wore thin. Dungeons seemed rushed and weren’t very memorable as something like Naxxramas Pre-BC. But one thing I have always enjoyed are the patches right before an expansion. These patches offer an abundance of content including the always popular pre-expansion events. For any lore fanatic such as myself they are quite a spectacle.
This most recent patch was built to support the new expansion with talents, glyphs and the sort. Pre-expansion events have yet to be done except for a few things such as Garrosh being sworn as the new Warcheif of the Horde. Blizzard also added earthquakes, giving you a sense of the looming destruction Azeroth is going to suffer. That having been said, lets get into the major stuff: my opinion on the revamped talents, glyphs, and attributes.
Last week I covered a topic that is an immense rift in WoW fanhood, the private server; some people swear by it while some swear to see it permanently destroyed… most likely from the VD you get from it. My article last week touched on how illegal a private server can be… but exactly how illegal are we talking about here? Well, open your eyes wider and pay attention, you might be surprised.
This isn’t going to be a normal format article, I want to be a little deliberate with this topic as it is quite special to me. As many people are probably aware, the attention span of a human nowadays is so low tha- oh look, a butterfly! Because of this, even gamers now find it hard to focus on one game for too long until a new, flashier, easy to fit in most overhead storage one appears to tickle their fancy. Doubtless one of the worst games for the attention deficit-stricken in all of us is World of Warcraft.
