Feedback: Pet Battles

The Pet Battle system is being iterated on in Midnight, and changes will continue to come with future Alpha builds. In the first builds of the Midnight Alpha, we have several goals: For players who...

Me:
Also me:

A World of Warcraft “Evil Kermit” meme with two orcs. The regular orc says: “Me: ‘I’ll just log in for daily quests.’” The hooded, evil orc version replies: “Also Me: ‘Queue every dungeon until 4:20 AM.’” This highlights the common WoW struggle of intending to play briefly but staying up all night running dungeons.

A World of Warcraft “Evil Kermit” style meme using two orcs. The regular orc says: “Me: I should queue as DPS, less pressure.” The hooded, evil orc interrupts: “My brain: Queue as tank, instant pop.” The regular orc protests: “Me: But I don’t kno—” before the hooded version insists again: “My brain: instant. pop.” This captures the classic WoW dilemma of choosing the easier DPS role versus the faster dungeon queue as a tank.

A World of Warcraft “Evil Kermit” meme featuring two orcs. The regular orc says: “Me: I should wait for the group to be ready.” The hooded, evil orc insists: “My brain: Pull the boss.” The regular orc protests: “Me: But the group isn’t read—” but the hooded version repeats: “My brain: pull.” The meme jokes about the impatient player who can’t resist pulling a boss early, even if the group isn’t ready.

A World of Warcraft “Evil Kermit” meme with two orcs. The regular orc says: “Me: Stick with the team in Battlegrounds.” The hooded, evil orc responds: “My brain: Charge solo into 5 enemies.” The regular orc protests: “Me: But I’ll di—” before the hooded version replies: “My brain: zug zug.” The joke plays on the reckless WoW player instinct to charge into impossible fights alone, referencing the classic orc phrase “zug zug.”

#RIPValorstones

The image centers on an in-game headstone that reads, "Valorstones, RIP In Peace," and is surrounded by other in-game gravestones in a grassy lot. This image fills the viewer with a sense of nostalgia and relief.

Varian is back! Sure hope nothing bad happens to him.

Jump back in time with Legion Remix on October 7.

The image depicts the character Varian Wrynn from World of Warcraft. The top half of the image, labeled "How it started," shows Varian in an aggressive stance, seemingly in the midst of battle, with a sword in hand. The bottom half, labeled "How it's going," shows Varian's armored body as a statue upon a sarcophagus with his sword resting on his chest.

It features two images of a character from World of Warcraft, Varian Wrynn, with text overlaid on each. The top image shows Varian with an angry, scowling expression and is labeled "Me on Monday." The bottom image shows him with a calmer, more relaxed, and somewhat tired expression, labeled "Me on Friday." His visage wreathed in an angelic glow.

A two-panel image depicting the character Varian Wrynn from World of Warcraft. The top panel shows Varian looking determined, with the caption "Me before raid night". The bottom panel shows him looking defeated and weary, with his hand outstretched as he sinks in an ocean. The caption reads "Me after 87 wipes on the first boss".

The image is a meme comparing "1 day after payday" to "1 week after payday" using two images of the character Varian Wrynn from World of Warcraft. The top image, labeled "1 day after payday," shows Varian Wrynn looking strong and determined, with his fist clenched and a powerful expression. The bottom image, labeled "1 week after payday," shows Varian Wrynn in a much weaker, defeated state, reaching his hand upwards while submerged in water and sinking.
