Lots of delicious spoilers in there with the boss encounters and in-game voiced scenes.

What caught my eye were these two particular transcripts:

PS_Tyrannus_Slay02 - "Perhaps you should have stayed, in the mountains!"

IC_Valanar_Empower01 - "Naxxanar was merely a setback! With the power of the orb, Valanar will have his vengeance!"

Drama at the Wrathgate Transcript

ray123 — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 13:20:50 +0800

Highlord Bolvar Fordragon walks among his men.

Alliance Soldier 1: Highlord Bolvar!

Alliance Soldier 2: Thank the Light!

Alliance Soldier 3: For Lordaeron!

Alliance Soldier 4: For the Alliance!

Bolvar roars as he and his men charge into the undead.

Highlord Fordragon: Back, you mindless wretches!

The gates open and Scourge vrykul, speaking in their native tongue, charge out.

Highlord Fordragon: Fight on, brothers!

As the battle continues, Saurfang the Younger observes the conflict and raises his axe to rally his soldiers.

Saurfang the Younger: Rise up, sons of the Horde! Blood and glory await us!

Back at the battle, Bolvar glances up at the sound of an orcish horn, and Saurfang and his troops arrive.

Saurfang the Younger: Lok'tar ogar! For the Horde!

Horde army: FOR THE HORDE!

Bolvar and Saurfang fight side-by-side.

Highlord Fordragon: I was wondering if you'd show up!

Saurfang the Younger: I couldn't let the Alliance have ALL the fun today!

Saurfang swings his axe, killing three undead vrykul in one slash. After the battle ends, Bolvar and Saurfang approach the gate.

Highlord Fordragon: Arthas! The blood of your father, of your people, demands justice! Come forth, coward, and answer for your crimes!

The gate rumbles and opens again, revealing the Lich King, Frostmourne in hand.

The Lich King: You speak of justice? Of cowardice? I will show you the justice of the grave and the true meaning of fear!

As the Lich King approaches, undead legions rise behind him.

Saurfang the Younger: Enough talk! Let it be finished!

Saurfang charges. The Lich King swings Frostmourne, shattering Saurfang's axe and killing the orc instantly. Frostmourne consumes the soul of the slain orc.

Highlord Fordragon: You will pay for all the lives you've stolen, traitor.

The Lich King: Boldly stated. But there is nothing you can--

An explosion and a green cloud behind Bolvar interrupts the confrontation.

The Lich King: What?

Laughter from the heights above the Wrathgate as Grand Apothecary Putress approaches.

Grand Apothecary Putress: Did you think we had forgotten? Did you think we had forgiven?

As he speaks, the catapults come forward.

Grand Apothecary Putress: Behold, now, the terrible ven--

Kanye West has appeared beside Putress on the cliff face.

Kanye West: YO PUTRESS, I'M REALLY HAPPY FOR YOU, I'MMA LET YOU FINISH, BUT ARTHAS HAD ONE OF THE BEST BETRAYALS OF ALL TIME. THE BEST BETRAYAL OF ALL TIME. PEACE.

Kanye West has teleported away!

Grand Apothecary Putress: ...

Highlord Fordragon: ...You can still fire the catapaults if you want.

Grand Apothecary Putress: Death to the Scourge! And death to th-... $#!% it. I'll be in the Undercity.

Gamepath Melaka

ray123 — Sat, 06 Jun 2009 12:40:15 +0800

Need some quick info about Gamepath:

1. Any users using it from Melaka?
2. How good is it?
3. How do you pay for it? I don't have a credit card.
4. Is there a dealer in Melaka selling their timecards (I'll pick it up myself)?

Thx for the info.

[Question] What was this manga? (no pic =/)

ray123 — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 11:53:44 +0800

I remember reading a disturbing sci-fi action manga whereby the Earth's population has mutated into hybrids of animals and dinosaurs. One particular scene was a girl morphing into a T-Rex so that her head/face was inside the T-rex's mouth. Her brother was changed into a rhino hybrid, I don't recall exactly but a herbivour. Living off the plants made the girl unwell so the desperate brother went out and "foraged" a hybrid schoolgirl-rabbit and fed it to the sister. She liked it so much that she killed the brother and ate him too.

What was this manga? Shounen style.

Edit

Ok I think I found it by narrowing down searches in Baka-Updates.

Lives
http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=7983

Ahhhh it's drawn by the same guy that did Battle Royal no wonder I kept thinking about it. I completely forgotten why I even thought about it in the first place.

Now I need to go home and search for the chapters. Too bad only 4 were translated.

Streamyx Downtime? (since 5th November)

ray123 — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 15:17:17 +0800

Just got off the phone with the "helpful" 1300-88-9515.

Apparently they are receiving a lot of complaints from the Klang Valley as well as some other states including mine (Melaka) regarding general slowness, time outs, high latency etc etc (can't browse sites, half loaded, can't play WoW so on - i'm using DIGI wireless atm).

Was there a flood due to the heavy rains or something?

Sigh I woke up to find my BT d/l at max speed but I decided to reboot my pc and never got it back. D:

What is your /played?

ray123 — Mon, 28 May 2007 10:26:59 +0800

After reading the "play too much WoW" thread, I got curious.

128 days on my Shaman (70)
37 days on my Druid (70)
6 days on my Hunter (49)
6 days on my Warlock (55)

Add all those various lowbies and alts (<40), probably 180 days in all. Hmm.

Wireless in Port Dickson

ray123 — Sat, 07 Apr 2007 18:15:46 +0800

I might be working in PD soon and would need personal internet access. I've heard there's some wireless broadband options in PD but I'm a total noob on wireless technology.

Anyone can provide some info and experience on the services available there (if any) and the prices?

Feeling jaded

ray123 — Fri, 16 Feb 2007 04:58:15 +0800

When I first bought WoW, I felt so much awe and excitement. Each hour of gaming was entertainment, an alternative to sitting in front of the TV or going out.

Now though, I feel WoW is becoming more of a job than entertainment. Going to a 5-man, level 70 dungeon? Sit up and pay attention dude, or one mistake will wipe your group! What, you didn't bring any potions or misc buffs in case of emergencies? Shame on you!

Oh, you haven't attune yourself to Karazhan yet? You slacker! Oops, your spec is weak for this dungeon, maybe next time when we have a different group makeup!

I don't know man... what happened to the days when you play WoW to have a few hours of fun? It seems to be demanding a lot more for you to enjoy... Ever since the concept of "reputation grind", I feel it's becoming imperative that you have to "work" before having "fun". And what's fun now? 2-shotting some guy with your uber items before he can even react?

The ridiculous gear and itemization made the game less fun, IMHO. If you don't have great gear, you won't have a great time.

/shrug

Sometimes I feel the game is trapped in a vicious cycle. Ok, lets give the players more powerful items. But wait, we need to make the new encounters more and more difficult so not everyone can get it. But you will also need those powerful items for future, more difficult dungeons!

It looks like an unending cycle. I'm not sure how random PuGs will be able to clear bosses like Murmur in Shadow Labrinyth or the Druid boss in The Botanica. Sometimes I just miss the old days, where you get off work, shoutout in /LFG, get a few pugs, go into a dungeon and kill a boss in a regular tank & spank for some regular loot in maybe just over an hour.

Now it seems everything needs "pre-planning" and careful coordination. "OK guys tank will stand here, mage aoe the small add spawns, melee need to move back every 30 seconds, healers cast HoTs on the MT during time-stop etc etc etc..."

It's just so... troublesome.

Meh.

eMule?

ray123 — Thu, 11 Jan 2007 16:17:51 +0800

Anyone having problems with the download speeds? Used to be in the mid 20kb/s (have very little files to get), but since yesterday it all but flat-lined.

How's Your Guild?

ray123 — Thu, 11 Jan 2007 09:32:56 +0800

With TBC catering to smaller groups, how's your guild coping up?

Already my guild's getting some gquit notices... people are making smaller guilds on their own...
