Good show guys.
I think I’m done with TOR. I leveled a main to 50. Then, various alts to various levels, plus endgame, plus dailies… then I admitted to myself I was mainly playing alts out of boredom and to see what happens next in the class story cut scenes.
Unfortunately for Bioware I can find that out on Youtube.
Can’t wait for the Titan podcast!
FYI, MP3 Link is broken. iTunes download still works.
Fixed now.
Dills is incorrect when it comes to the mobile authenticator. You can absolutely change phones. When TOR launched, you could not, and as you said, this was a massive oversight that no one thought of. They have made it possible since, I think it was in late February or early March. I actually held off upgrading my iPhone until it was possible. It requires a call to Customer Service. Navigating through the menus to get to a human was a challenge (I recommend going to billing problems, amazing how quick you get a human when they are worried about getting your money) and explain you are upgrading your phone an need to switch over your authenticator. I think it took like 5 minutes max when I did it in March
I dropped WoW for ToR, and as the familiar story goes, i’m back playing WoW. I haven’t listened to a ToR cast since episode 12. Voice seemed like the future but here i am reading quests and totally loving it. Much more tranquil?
Anyway i’m so done with ToR so i wont be listening to this cast obviously, but i will be back listening to The Instance again though. ToR really burned me out with it’s shear boringness and thought maybe i was done with mmo’s in general but no it was ToR it’s just so boring, i fired up my WoW account and am having allot of fun again.
OK, to the point i’m writing, i love your shows and would like to make a request.
I would absolutely love a pure Diablo podcast, drop this dead game (EA has) and replace it with Diabolic Diablo. There’s going to be tons to talk about like Real Money Auction, I’m sure there will be lots of controversy to discuss with this game for years and years to come.
A WoW Podcast is Exciting.
A Diablo Podcast is Exciting.
A ToR Podcast is absolutely Boring.
Put ToR on hold or a monthly schedule, probably still wont have much to talk about anyway, and fire up a Diablo show, you can thank me later.
