If it isn't one thing....


Sometimes, real life really sucks as far as the internet is concerned. My internet isn't the best, just probably good enough to run WoW at the lowest capability. But when you lose it for about half the month, causing you to be even booted from your guild because of said lack of absence, it can really put a damper on things.

Luckily, everything has been repaired and I'm back in Stalwart Heroes once again...just in time for the Great Hunter Nerf to hit us. My Poor pets damage has been lowered while still taking hits from other players like rats, and while riding a Mechostrider and getting rep up makes up for things a tad, I'm thinking of having a majority of my pets stuffed and may even see the day when I turn survivalist hunter.

Your using a cheating devi...oh, wait....

There's been a lot of talk lately about hacking Brawl, be it to get rid of the annoying tripping mechanic (Something that players still wonder why was even put in to begin with) or adding in the Melee airdodge, which is something from what I've seen to actually BREAK the game play of Brawl.

Overall, Using any hacking device, imo, is a bad idea. Changing how any game is plays unbalances, no matter what you might think, It would take YEARS of practice to even figure out what's too strong for a character and what's strong enough. As much as I love the idea of King DeDeDe getting a bit stronger and possibly losing his Chain throw, the fact that he've got no idea how it'll effect him, I just think it's a bad idea to try something like that, particularly that Brawl is still so young when it comes to how long it's been out.

Now while I agree on that Brawl wasn't perfect when it came to it's competetive game play, but going into the game and having you personally change it, well, I rather know what I'm going to be dealing with in any situatian instead of having to hack my Wii myself to even learn how to play the 'Brawl+'.

Old things I'll never experince

I wasn't a player back in 'Vanilla Wow' as the game is called that had all the content before BC. I never had to go through any of the Vanilla endgame content, such as ZG, Ak20, and Dire Maul. And as such, I've missed out on quite a few unique items, mounts, and other little things over the years.

Of course, not all of it's bad. I'll never have to suffer the Tauren's old lack of mounts, or some of the horrific difficulties of finding/grinding that one pet that had a faster attack speed then the others. And, of course, I'll never have to go through those few quests that make me have to go through half the entire world just to get an item I'll never use (well, if I don't go and try to get the Lore Master achievements.). However, with the new year, I'm going to look foraward to all the new things I'm going to experince. Not just in wow, but with Brawl and Pokemon too, with Brawl+ (A hacked Brawl) gaining steam and Platnum and it's new moves on the horizan. It promises to be an interesting year!
