Thank you! I understand how readers are hesitant to try a VR MMORPG series because of that very reason. Hopefully, readers will identify with my MC enough that the stakes get even higher. I'm glad you're along for the ride. :)

24 hours left for picking up The WoW Diary. thewowdiary.com
I'm reprinting The WoW Diary and including a post-mortem booklet of game development essays almost a quarter the size of The WoW Diary. The Offer ends in 24 days, so check out thewowdiary.com for details. Slava Ukraini!
If you don't already have the WoW Diary by @JohnStaats_WIR I highly recommend picking up the second edition when the new campaign goes live. It provides some pretty cool insight into WoW's early development history (and apparently has a new booklet too). backerkit.com/call_to_action…
It's never too late to carve out time to read the WoW Diary. ;) Enjoy!
I'm terrible at promoting my interviews, but I'm looking forward to this one. ;) #HangingwithOldFriends

Thanks! I’m glad you were able to get a copy. The supply is dwindling. ;)

These are too high res to be wow assets but both games were made at the same time, they were art directed to look the same. Team 1 actually lead the way but wow devs weighed in.

Thx and yes, that was WS. And some returned to Blizzard from the Wildstar team. It ebbs and flows. ;)
BTW, Kevin Jordan rocks!
I haven't listened to Kevin's answer, but my guess is disguises take hella animation time. WoW's entire animation team quit after vanilla shipped. Much staffing and catch-up work was needed before animators could spend time on disguises. :P

Assets went back and first as the teams worked side by side, but these textures were custom fit it looks. They could have originated on either team, but team 1 generally was ahead of team 2 in teams of art direction.

That's a 1999 or 2000 asset. No collision or pathing. Possibly pre-engine. See how the texturing doesn't align with the geometry and the window is cut in half and mirrored. If it's in Legion, it was likely used for something meant to be seen far away.

@JohnStaats_WIR @Tamamobae It looks almost like a protoype of Agamand Mills up in Tirisfal Glades, which makes me curious how many reiterations subzones could find themselves going through
Good guess, but The Foresaken area was our last starter zone. It was actually the easiest to make because we just retextured human buildings and called it a day. :P

I often dislike VR stories because they're the action is low stakes, but you did a great balance between adding significance without eliminating the interesting parts of VR.
@Hotel3_ @JohnStaats_WIR It's a fantasy novel based on an MMO. The gameplay is present with stats and abilities as part of the writing.
One of my best dungeon designers for WoW, @JohnStaats_WIR , is now litRPG novelist. He just opened his patreon, and his first book is free on Royal Road. John wrote the WoW Diaries and is a phenomenal designer. Hop on over and check it out! patreon.com/JohnStaats Free book in…
@Zarkeven Good question. No they were always going to be instanced, though Jeff K and Rob P always asked for bigger and bigger dungeons based on the EQ experience, never realizing instanced spaced needn't be so large.
@JohnStaats_WIR cool book! looking forward to see how apaches growth from loner towards leader progresses
@JohnStaats_WIR random question, were vanilla dungeons meant to be open world before it was decided that they would be instanced?
@JohnStaats_WIR Looks great! Followed, I'll give it a rating once I have a chance to read :)
@JohnStaats_WIR Thanks for the reply, I actually only ordered the supplementary booklet with the mouse mat, I was a supporter the first time round, not sure if this makes a difference. I'm in the UK.
@JohnStaats_WIR Hi John, has the second printing actually been shipped now? Last email says rewards will be shipped soon.
@JohnStaats_WIR Will it eventually release physically?
I worked with John Staats on WoW. He wrote The WoW Diaries, the number 1 non-fiction book of ALL TIME on Kickstarter, detailing his daily journal on WoW's development. Now, he's writing epic fantasy! Please check out his FREE first book on Royal Road out of a 7 book series!
Nerd out with me, Warcraft fans. After four years of writing and polishing, I am proud to announce my seven-book series, The Book of Dungeons. It's free (no registration), and I'd like your feedback. royalroad.com/fiction/79717/…
@JohnStaats_WIR Have you posted it on the litrpg reddit and facebook groups? That would get it a lot of attention.

@thesmall001 @bloerwald @krolco @cydereal @kurtismcc @SeTec9 @mstum @kviglucci @GaryPlatner @katztd I am reminded of @JohnStaats_WIR and his WoW Diary. (looks online briefly) wait, there was a second printing??!! backerkit.com/c/projects/whe…
Look what just arrived! I am so looking forward to reading through this albeit I’m sure some of it I’ve read from the first printing! @JohnStaats_WIR
@BrianBirming @ZoidCTF @joshcorbettpods @UnleashingGames Yup! And can't forget the @JohnStaats_WIR episode too. Unbelievable to think he kept such detailed information about the making of the game back then. Unsurprisingly though, a bunch of passionate people get together and have creative freedom, something amazing will come from it
@JohnStaats_WIR Late reply? I am furious! I sent that message 20 minutes ago! LOL I couldn't even kill Hogger in that time when I first started playing WoW! You are outstandingly dedicated John! I am just concerned my order was getting broken. How is the production going? Tony😎😎😎😎
@JohnStaats_WIR Gutted I missed the Diary - only by a few minutes or hours. And today is my birfday. Sent a DM which you may not get if not following me. I would appreciate any option to pledge to the Glory bundle. If you can help?
Tickled to be the 194th 👾 on @BackerKit for The World of Warcraft Diary: 2nd Printing. Thanks @JohnStaats_WIR @SourcePtPress …craft-diary-2nd-edition.backerkit.com/community_shar…
