Maybe? Something is going to get Blizz to finally pull out the ace up their sleeve...
Housing!
They have been holding this one close to the chest since launch 17 years ago. Could you imagine how fast all this would e…
If it is a game where crafting is important, like Eve, there must be item destruction, else each player would only ever need one of a given item and there would be no demand for crafters and resource harvesters, and huge parts of the game would be u…
Must be running out of money.
Still, I applaud them for releasing a game that can be reviewed, played, and judged on it's merits without the excuse of perpetual early access or forever alpha test that so many games use these days.

When you include the money they received from private investors, Star Citizen is now or will soon become the most expensive video game ever developed.
Not even close. In reality it's peanuts co…
Didn't the original kickstarter claim the game would take two years and $2 million USD? Here we are eight years later and $300 million plus with no end in sight. Chris Roberts should be embarrassed, but he doesn't seem to have any shame.
I guess y…
Some of the earliest sidescrollers are still playable and very fun. In contrast, a lot of games from the early 3d period (N64, PS1, etc) are nearly unplayable due to the terrible graphics, horrible camera, etc.
For anyone who is curious, when WoW launched in 2004 it had the following minimum specs:
Windows 98
800 mhz CPU
32 mb graphics card
256 mb RAM
4 GB hdd space
56k modem connection

Rather than come in at the budget end of the spectrum, have you considered a console?
Thanks for the response. I already have a PS4 and desktop rig, I need a laptop for traveling.
For those who are interested, this is what I …

Color me sceptic with how this went down. They had 16 backers for half of the campaign and not even 3000 raised. Then all of a sudden that backer number increased seven times (106 backers in the end) and total funding increased r…
From the earlier link Quizzical posted, this upgraded version https://www.newegg.com/fortress-gray-asus-tuf-gaming-tuf706iu-as76-gaming-entertainment/p/N82E16834235407
is slightly over budget, but the 16gb of memory and 1tb SSD make it sig…

First of all, why do you need a gaming laptop? What are you going to do with it? Do you need to run it on the battery for long periods of time, or will it always be plugged in? Are you going to use it at home, at work, take i…
At this point I am just enjoying following the soap opera of Star Citizen. And the most amusing part of it all to me is that if they ever actually release the game, they have already sold so many things in the cash shop (that don't exist yet) that i…
Wikipedia is fine for a basic summary of an uncontroversial topic. But for any contemporary social, religious, or political issue, it's disastrously bad. Not only can anyone edit the articles, the more senior editors have their own biases and ideolo…
