World of Warcraft Shadowlands has had a wierd week as patch 9.1.5 goes live. We’ve had changes to the way COvenant Campaigns work for alts, a new store mount and Bobby Kottick taking a huge pay cut and giving staff at Blizzard WHAT THEY WANTED! In an amazing move Activion have caved to A Better ABK’s demands and – among other concessions – waived forced Arbitration. It’s kind of incredible, so… is it ok to play WoW again now? All this and BIG HINTS at the next expansion 10.0, so join us for the Weekly Reset, Taliesin and Evitel’s Wondrous WoW News Wisdomshow!

My best guess is maybe an emerald dream expansion? Seems like a good theme for warm cuddlies and shiny birbs
The only bad thing about wow dying now is that content creators turn away and we might not get a weekly reset in the near future 🙁
Good for you. I'm glad you keep reminding folk Blizzard are still working through their lawsuits
A store mount seems like a great way for activision to generate funds for more lawyers, but they would never do that… would they?
diversity hiring is just preferential treatment. People should be hired on merit, not because they underwent sex changes or happened to be born a different color that is lacking in a company.
What a shark jumping moment for you.
Sorry but I can’t never go back ex, That relationship never works.
50% of female and minority, who are unskilled and do not know anything about wow story, lore, characters had not played any warcraft game yayy??
But yet, when you visit his twitter, his headline says *GRABS YOUR BALLS*. Yeah, he's not cleaning up lol. He doesn't give 2 shits.
10:40 That's the funniest damn conclusion! I hope its real!
08:20 for the happiest man alive
Blizzard is dead. Fluffy cats will give Activisionblizzrd a shitton of money for their spreadsheet. No blizzcon is the writing on the wall. WoW into caretaker mode subscription based beta bug testing crap. If it wasn't for the Blizzard bear mount and AShes of Alar my account would be deleted.
Lawyered up gargoyle- LMFAO!!! Awesome.
the only thing i got from this reset is the fact that i aint resubbing until i see that money is invested back into the game,
where the fuck does all mount money go anyway, the game is burning problems running rampent yet here is another fucking store mount
To skip to actual WoW News:
8:30
The sun warmed furline or whatever that is… so perfectly looks like the wow they want to sell and the wow I don't want to play.
It's allright, I've moved on.
I'm so glad I unsubbed and never played 9.1. I was exactly 0% hyped for 9.1.5 and I knew they wouldn't deliver. This is classic blizzard – promise something, deliver "almost" the same, which is in fact completely different.
– But Bobby, how exactly will you increase the female and non-binary workforce percentage?
– Simple. Fire men!
Best psyche on youtube. Well played sir, well played.
Playing the dumb card, but, Blizzard isn't the centre of the of the universe when it comes to "harassment" claims. I'm guessing there are plenty of corporations as this video was made that are big, either in the gaming industry or entertainment industry with unbalanced workforce. How long will those companies continue such practices? It's like, in the USA, women going to the beach topless is a no-no unless some private nudist beach; where it can be quite accepted on beaches in France. Flashing breasts on t.v. advertisements not a big deal, not happening in USA. Onto other matters, which I hope is addressed later, the hypothetical one; big boy Activision now owning WoW, will they follow the practice of others like, NCSoft? Or Sony Entertainment? Where the online Star Wars Galaxies was shut down. Where the one of a kind modern day, super hero and villain mmorpg City of Heroes was shut down. Sure, they present themselves interested and invested in WoW for now, to look good; but does WoW have maybe just no more then two years left before Activision pulls the plug?
"killed that franchise" … Oh Irony.
I can't stand these pink glasses anymore. I used to like the channel, but portraying what's going on as still good just pukes me.
9.1.5 is a hotfix that should have been released months ago and Mage Tower rewards are just a new color for a set that has already been warmed up. Everything about it is just warmed up to keep players quiet.
Instead of trying at least a little, they continue to censor old quests, npc`s and items at random. All this pointless time could be used to give the players little new elements that can be worked out in the game.
No they haven't learned, no they don't try, no they don't listen. They do pointless crap to reassure shareholders, nothing more.
And anyone who belittles these actions is part of the problem. That's why Blizzard doesn't see a need to make WoW any better. Because people just accept it and swallow anything, no matter how bad it is.
Sorry but I'm out. I can't support that anymore.
If it wasn't for Blizzcon, Tali wouldn't have met Garrett in person and together they would not have Killed WoW with WoW Killer podcast and it's huge dose of bat nipples.
Warriorcats reference and this one is Firepaw? Firepaws died in the great battle and now continues his life in afterlife member of Starclan (theirs Shadowlands??)
Dragon isles confirmed?
Ребят, ну вот хоть убейте, но брать специалиста должны не по квоте на определённые генеталии, а по скилу. Если тащит, то тащит и не важно какой из 9000 гендеров представляет этот человек
Damn that dude sure talks a lot, she can barely get a word in, kind of cringe.
The production of this news is pretty damn high!
Sub!
Oh for fucks sake, the behavior that went on
is despicable and I love you guys but the constant reminder of no acknowledgement of employee demands from you, wowhead, blizz insider, and bellular is incredibly unnecessary. When lawyers, lawsuits and money are involved of course the resolution is going to be slow, and nobody is going to say anything (see above for reason why). Y’all are smarter than that, and the reminders and getting people riled up isn’t going to expedite the legal process.
This company is doomed until talent and hard work will be vallued more then sexual or racial traits. This articles "50% more of this race or this sex" should really stop and change into "50% more tecnical support spelialists or 50% more testers".
Good on the employees.
The arbiter sees all truths
Thanks for doing 3 videos this week.
‘Increase female and non-binary employees by 50%’
Right, so just the same blokes working there are going to check the ‘non binary’ box then? As it is a totally unprovable and unquantifiable characteristic (or are you saying there is a non binary way to look/dress/act?) women will just lose out again.
Should have just been a promise to hire more women, lgbt or otherwise doesn’t matter.
I had a quick thought and I hope I'm wrong… what if the cat mount is sunwell-y as you said and we'll go back in time to the Sunwell to "save" Sylvanas from Arthas and change WoW's history altogether?
I've not been following but is there actual new content in 9.1.5 or is it just qol changes. I know about legion tw and mage tower but don't consider them new content.
you missed the mark here, tali. the cat is Elune centered.
everybody knows Elune LOVES cats.
@Taliesin what's the music you guys use at 12:00. I know it's a variation of the Return to Arms music from BfA, but I cannot find it anywhere. Please help a fan out.
You got me at shitshow!
Invisible hair cutting ninjas? .. or perhaps Jandelaine!
They can sell a 100 more mounts like this and copium addicts wouldn't bat an eye before buying it… Blizz playing its player base like a fiddle.
