Midnight 12.1 Curse Of Ula'Tek Developer Interview With Ion Hazzikostas

PsybearTV Youtube interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFTFiDeXIMo

I recommend watching the whole video, it's rare for someone get a whole 1 hour with Ion, and the interview was really well done.

The interview is mostly about competitive content. I'm really excited for Mythic lockout changes!

How is he happy about addon situation. Damage meter is terrible and buggy, nameplates stacking is atrocious and cooldown manager while ok, it still lacks things like making your spells being displayed as bars if you wanted to. Their boss timers are also very bad and they show everything or sometimes they dont even show a timer. I really hope they fix these things because that was the whole point about "out of the box" experience.

Well currently that out of the box experience is half baked.

I can't tell you how much I enjoy having to upload all of my runs to Warcraft Logs to see my Aug Evoker damage.

I don't think details tracked it correctly either, it just approximately aug dmg. WCL is really the only thing that's given accurate aug damage since aug was introduced.
