Bungie’s Brian Jarrard is a WoW-head, too!
In a 1UP podcast show, one of Bungie’s developers reveals his true gaming self: he’s a WoW-head – and a very disturbingly geekish one at that! He reveals his broad knowledge of the World of Warcraft by issuing his two cents worth of the current issues involved in the WoW community.
And that includes his comments on the 2.1.0 patch coming up for World of Warcraft (soon, hopefully), which covers the recent addressing of the consumables requirement for end-game raids, how Lady Vashj got owned, and the Can’t Quit You guild (which apparently should have been “Can’t Quit You, WoW!” guild) which reached over 500 members and stopped recruiting.
Now while Brian Jarrard isn’t the first industry celeb to go online and make his WoW addiction known, he didn’t feel shy to reveal his love for being a Priest, a Druid and an enhancement Shaman. And get this: Bungie has a guild stuffed with the lot of them, but since (and we quote) “…[Bungie has] been distracted [because they’re] working on Halo 3…,” they’re only now reduced to a small “core” of them who still play the game. Funny how it’s not the other way around!
Halo 3 delayed by World of Warcraft addiction? Whoa, that’ll be the day… Still, you cannot help but notice a growing trend as the MMO market expands to even the game developers themselves! As 1Up stated in their summarized the phenomenon in their Legendary Thread:
So instead of just playing WoW, they also now talk about playing WoW. And record it, so that when you aren’t playing WoW, or thinking about WoW, or talking about WoW, you can listen to other people talking about WoW. It’s magical!
