I will be seeing you all tomorrow!

This is a pretty standard approach for the genre. What I would dislike is playable content, like raids and dungeons, locked behind a paywall every four months.
BREAKING 💥: 4Chan leak claims Blizzard has a 30/60/90$ packs ready for Forever !
It is said to land shortly after launch and the post calls it a "scam expansion pack". Shadows of Lordaeron, worgen for Alliance, darkfallen elf for Horde, Gilneas, two raids and a healer legendary. Nothing in it looks like a document, only a username and a wishlist. Worgen or darkfallen, we got leaks before the actual release ? 😭
Spending the weekend seeing what Black Desert is like while we wait on WoW Forever and ArcheAge Chronicles xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/2zkzZgkyg…
You’re Not Behind in WoW Forever (or Any MMO) | Psychiatrist Explains
Why do you feel behind in your MMO even when you're having fun? As a psychiatrist and lifelong gamer, I break down the psychology behind MMORPG FOMO, social comparison, and why gaming can start to feel like a second job, plus three ways to get back to playing on your own terms.
Someone explain to me how crypto is the future of finance.
So, here’s what happened: Binance hot wallets were drained of $5.60B today across Ethereum, Bitcoin and Tron.
$200m were transferred few minutes ago, so hack is still ongoing
Here is what is on-chain rn: what is frozen vs not, and the addresses to watch.
➮ Totals
✧ $5.60B pulled from Binance hot wallets
✧ 3 chains: Ethereum, Bitcoin, Tron
✧ 67 assets, 63 of them swept out of Binance 14 in a single tx
✧ Attack vector not confirmed at time of writing
➮ Frozen so far: $2.38B
✧ $1.56B USDT frozen by @Tether_to: $1.18B on Ethereum + $379M on Tron
✧ $823M USDC frozen by @circle
✧ Thats ~42% of the haul neutralized within the day
➮ Not frozen: ~$2.6B
✧ 18,270 $BTC ($1.45B) - nobody can freeze this
✧ 197K $ETH ($451M) - same
✧ ~$730M USDT still unfrozen, Tether can still act on it
✧ Rest: $TRX ($234M), $RLUSD ($88.5M), $WBETH ($75M), $XAUT ($50M) and a tail of smaller tokens
➮ Addresses to watch (paste into etherscan / mempool / tronscan)
Ethereum, attacker main, holds the frozen USDT + USDC:
0x5227f603c1ee34ce3c06efe6477003bdfccb2f8c
Ethereum, 195,460 ETH parked here:
0x8532fa14acaf483729c449b8458aeddb900543d4
Main sweep tx, 63 tokens out of Binance 14:
0x53bd38b816c23e74134786c29a8c18d792777998a3b9326047b583100e88e2f3
Bitcoin, 18,270 BTC received:
bc1q0mtc2f5agpkvlq6hhahmfr3hlr55kyfjhl2mnm
Tron, 612.7M USDT received, 313M of it frozen:
TG5iBMQPrDzJJAUM8GMVBf1hRaJ1wvzsGi
Tron, 216M USDT, not frozen:
TSUUVjysXV8YqHytSNjfkNXnnB49QDvZpx
➮ Context
✧ Previous record: Bybit, Feb 2025, $1.5B in ETH. This is ~3.8x that
✧ Binance 2019 hack: ~7,000 BTC, ~$40M, covered by SAFU
✧ Binance 2022 BNB bridge: ~$570M, most of it frozen by validators within hours
✧ Moreover, SAFU fund was ~$1B at last disclosure. This hack is 5x+ that, so the coverage question is Binance balance sheet, not SAFU
➮ What matters next
1/ Whether Tether freezes the remaining ~$730M USDT, and whether Ripple does the same with $88.5M RLUSD
2/ First outbound hops from the BTC and ETH addresses, bridges or mixers. Until then $1.9B is just sitting there
3/ Binance withdrawal status and an official statement on how 63 tokens got signed out of Binance 14
4/ Whether this follows Bybit pattern: that money went through THORChain within days, same route would show up fast here
Will update as the addresses move.
"So we've done a lot of experimentation to see what is the correct rate, and we're fairly convinced the correct rate is something closer to once every four months or 17 weeks or three times a year, whatever you want to call it. That is a cadence we have in mind for releasing new content."
Depending on the size of the update this could be fine. I would hope for more quarterly updates but we will see how this feels.

Oh, the irony.
Asmongold goes OFF, saying if you still play retail World of Warcraft, you’re a d*ck eater. If you’re mad about that, play Classic or quit the game 😳👀
“If you wanna play this game, you are eating d*cks. So open wide, get ready and you've got another d*ck, so get ready to eat it. That's the way it goes and if you're mad about that, then play Classic or quit the game. But I'm so over and so done with Blizzard”
I'm a psychiatrist and a lifelong WoW player. Before WoW Forever launches, here's the psychology of launch week: the arrival fallacy, the liking gap, and why racing to max level can leave you feeling empty.
@Warcraft @AggrendWoW @ClaytonStone , I'm going to try to slow down this time. No promises. #WoWForever
November 3rd. Will be here quick!

I had fun with the demo. But if they think they need more time then take that time and make it better.
An Update on Early Access:
ALT The Cygnus Cross team has made the difficult decision to delay the Emberville release to January 7, 2027. This decision wasn’t made lightly. After a fantastic Steam Next Fest, we realized we simply needed more time to include all the changes and improvements that we think will make the game the best it can be. Thank you for playing our Steam Next Fest demo, and for all the wonderful comments, suggestions, and feedback. Look forward to our Early Access release in January!
A Psychiatrist’s Advice Before You Play WoW Forever (Don't Rush)

You should probably quit asking whether "insert game name here" uses AI.
And start asking to what degree they use it.
