Best hairdo to date.
Anyways, the Wildstar stuff you went over looks pretty cool.
Thu Aug 09 2012 8:21AM ReportLove her hair!
Shoot... I'm bias, I love her stuff. She rocks!
Great mmorpg piece as always little Pokket! Bravo.
Thu Aug 09 2012 9:28AM ReportJesus, nice expression
Was fun seeing you in the RaiderZ live chat.
Thu Aug 09 2012 10:36AM ReportOMG!! Somebody please tie her hands down!
The emote for her hands is /flailshandsobsessivelywhiletalking
Thu Aug 09 2012 12:43PM ReportNot to go too far off topic but is that your Batman Bed Sheet hanging behind you? If it is you're such a nerd Pokket and I love ya for it! LOL
Anyways... Nice vid and very informative. I've not really followed any of the games you talked about except for DayZ but the news of a stand alone game is great even if we did see it coming. Great hair btw. =)

That was me. I picked it :3 I've started doing my own thumbnails. I randomly paused on that still before rendereing aaaaaaaaaaaaaand voila! Thumbnail.
Thank y'all for the feedback and compliments =) I'm trying to improve every week and really do listen to what you all say (except trolls, I just laugh at them :D).
Thu Aug 09 2012 3:52PM Reporti'm not your fan and i mostly don't like your videos, but this one was good. Informative enough, i actually got NEWS from it.
Thu Aug 09 2012 4:07PM ReportYea, maybe the "I randomly paused" is the issue. Bonus points for spontaneity, but I guess you would have redone it if it'd been a still with a derpy eyes-helf-closed look. :) There must be a better still in that 6min thing.
Gesticulation seems fine to me. I do it, too, when I have to speak extemporaneously. Helps to explain stuff if I can't find the right word out of the top of my head.
Thu Aug 09 2012 4:10PM ReportExcellent video, and fantastic journalism, as always. This is, without a doubt, absolute top notch stuff. I'm really glad to see MMORPG.com really knocking things up a few notches with the quality of their content.
Pokket's head looks like a potatoe.
Thu Aug 09 2012 4:59PM Reporti would like to see pokket doing the news from afghanistan for lolz
pokket: like omg hello im reporting here dudes! whats with the IDE'S
pokket" Ok lets talk about this whole al queda thing. These dudes are evil and like trying to kill everyone it makes me madder then when i die in dayz what gives?
Shes quite lively sometimes i wonder if she drinks a red bull before she does these lol.
Hair review 7/10 still like to see pokket with an bigger side bang and short emo hair. Lose the cleopatra eyeliner you!!
Thu Aug 09 2012 7:10PM ReportAlthough WoW isnt hurting losing 1.5M or 2M subs, it does hurt them. No company wants to lose that amount of revenue. Which is a large amount of money lost each month/billling cycle.
Not implying that you dont understand that. But you can believe that some of the people at the top have tender backsides from the ass-chewing they must be getting.
You also said something that was very significant. Mike Morhaime says it always fluctuates, so its no big deal.
But, for me, that really brings into question do they still understand how to, or do they even care about, keeping their player base interested enough to keep playing between expansions. And that indifferent answer doesnt lead me to think that.
It seems to me instead of making (and supporting) a great game, they are instead focusing on making "great" expansions. It sure seems to me that March of the Pandas expansion is more gimickie that it is actual over all content.
On to DayZ. I cant say Im 100% behind the "going independent" game is going to be such a great idea. Right now Rocket is getting (a lot?) of support from Bohemia. As its in Bohemias interest to fix any bugs in the Arma 2's code.
And its my understanding, could be wrong, that DayZ will still be using Arma2's code as the foundation of its game.
Not a big deal, except Bohemia is going to release Arma 3 sometime next year, which I believe is a near complete rewrite of its "source" code.
Meaning DayZ and Rocket may be losing a lot of indirect support they have. That I have to say Im kinda dreading.
Then again Im sure Bohemia has been doing some serious coding already on Arma 3's engine/mechanics and Rocket and dayZ has been getting support.
So its a kind of wait and see. I am a fan of both games. And I have to say Im looking forward to Arma 3 more so than I am DayZ stand alone.
Either way Im going to have some great FPS fun this year an next. PS2, Arma 3 and DayZ.
Thanks again for the videos!
Thu Aug 09 2012 9:28PM ReportGreat vid! Has it been mentioned anywhere when the DayZ standalone client will be available? I definitely want to give the game a shot someday.
Anyways keep up the good work!
Thu Aug 09 2012 11:18PM ReportIn regards to WoW, more subs will drop as many people are stuck on death servers and refuse to play realm transfer costs ontop of their subscription.
Q2 reported 1.2 million sub drops Q3 wont boost that number as the Anual pass will end + GW2 comes out, MoP will launch but man there are riots versus the kung fu panda as is so Blizzard is going to have a rough time doing 2 bad Xpacs :P
Fri Aug 10 2012 2:05AM ReportThis video was...better than in the past. The hands were a severe distraction. You can use 'calculated' hand gestures as a means of strengthening a review/speech/conversation but with only a head and shoulders view, wild gesturing is (and was) distracting.
The overall information stream and conversation seemed reasonable (better than past) for the first 2/3rds of the article. Last 2 minutes or so it started to speed up and began to seem like rambling. Easy to do when you get excited. You extemporize to 'get it all in' and begin to fall short.
Overall? Well, I sat through the whole thing which is a change pointing to the positive. Kudos.
Fri Aug 10 2012 6:01AM ReportWas the video on fast forward?
Oh yes. I forgot. Its Pokket on the energy drinks again.
Fri Aug 10 2012 5:18PM ReportDont know what the big deal is about her hands. I actually had to rewatch it just see what its all about.
She is just an expressive talker guys. Nothing wrong with that.
Seems like people a just trying to find something to complain about, just to complain.
*shrug*
Fri Aug 10 2012 8:11PM ReportLove your videos Hillary, you do great game reporting, keep them coming! Don't let the bad critics get ya down. It's the silent masses that watch that really count.
Love the hair by the way. :)
