World of Warcraft: "Blatantly Obvious"
Posted: Tuesday February 7th, 2006

Well, we all already know that I'm a cynical jackass, so there's not much point in pre-empting this post with a qualifier... BUT...
I'm a cynical jackass.
And, that's probably why the "tips" on the WoW loading screen make my skull hurt. I mean, is there a good reason to put the tips there if they're all so blatantly obvious?
I think the tips should scale with your level/gear/etc. and it should be freakin' helpful. You know, stuff like...
Tip: Don't forget your DM tribute items.
Tip: Don't touch the eggs in the UBRS Rookery.
Tip: When Onyxia "begins to take a deep breath" run to the wall and move away from her mouth.
Tip: Banadage when the Paladin bubbles.
I could go on and on, but I'd rather hear some of your "real" WoW advice.

I was doing my own artwork to put up instead of the actual loading screen graphics. But, it started to feel like it would make the image no longer immediately come across as the loading screen. And that, of course, would have just confused the issue further.
And no you're not "seeing things", the comic is "animated".
