Shadowlands Predictions Part 2: Patch 9.1
WoW’s Shadowlands patch 9.1 is coming up… soon? In this post, we’ll discuss the release date based on historical x.1 patch dates (remember how we were right about the Shadowlands release date, until they changed it), new legendaries (maybe), the new raid, our guess for tier sets in this patch, and more. As always, make sure to subscribe or book mark or just remember alternateimage.net/gaming or however people find websites these days… because there will continue to be information on Warcraft’s upcoming content as well as other games.
(more…)Blizzard Bans Account with 100 Million Gold Over “New” Unannounced Rule
I don’t normally make this sort of news post, but it is important for even more people to see both the new rule, the story, and to be aware of the kind of things Blizzard will do to your account and how their GMs will behave regarding those things. It seems a World of Warcraft player had an account banned for a new rule that Blizzard hasn’t announced, posted anywhere, told anyone or otherwise informed the players about. After the break, see the entire reddit post embed along with the Wowhead link where I found this story that has additional images of the posters conversation with Blizzard GMs.

Check out December’s Featured Gamer Art, a monthly column of art that I’ve found found in the past few weeks. Art can include paintings, drawings, digital art, physical crafts, cosplay and more.
This week features art work from Cyberpunk 2077, World of Warcraft, the Witcher and Smite. You can click each picture to see the full size version and the link on them goes to the source where I found the image.
(more…)Shooter Problems
I’ve been playing a bit of Call of Duty: Black Ops: Cold War a bit recently and, while I’m having fun, there are certainly aspects which are entirely frustrating. Most of those, however, I’m noticing are common throughout all Call of Duty games and, in some cases, all FPS games period. So, in this post, I’m going to rant a bit about some aspects of that range from small complaints to design choices that should get the developer barred from creating video games and players slapped for letting it happen.
(more…)In Search of Fortune: Shadowlands (1.5 million gold in 4 weeks)
Welcome to ‘In Search of Fortune’, a monthly series where I discuss my gold goals and in-game money making strategies.
The beginning of an expansion in World of Warcraft is an important time to set the pace for how that expansion will go for you. You pick a main character to play, the role you’re playing, covenants (this time at least) and, in a way, your play style. Assuming you don’t have unlimited time, opportunity cost says you’re likely going to have to sacrifice one area for another. In my case, in making sure I was leveled and ready for the same content as friends, I had to forgo some of the crazy early money making tactics. The first couple of days see ridiculous prices and I could easily have made double or more what I have so far if I didn’t spend my time leveling and in dungeons. That being said, I’ve still made close to 1.5 million in total profits in under a month
In this post, I’ll break down where my 1.5 million gold profit has come from and what I’ll be doing in the near future to continue it.
(more…)Shadowlands Predictions Pt 1: The Great Vault, patch 9.1, our 2nd Legendary, and the Real Villains of SL.
This post is a content gamble. Either I provide the world a new means of bashing my stupid ideas or am proven a reliable source of speculation for future content. As the title says, in this post we’ll talk about some likely problems with the upcoming great vault (unrelated to my previous complaints about it), when I think 9.1 will release, when we’ll get a end legendary to equip and who the real villains of the expansion are.
