  • Mythic Tier WoW Discussion

    I stumbled on FAZ toward the end of Dragonflight. I’ve been hooked since my first listen.

    About five years ago I was introduced to the World of Warcraft. Becoming competitive in this game, I quickly learned the importance of outside resources to enhance playing experience, but finding FAZ is so much more.

  • Love the show!

    Listen up besties because I’m about to tell you about this show in my non-salty manny-festo.

    I look forward to this notification every week because these guys are so dang fun to listen to! Lex, Manny, and Shaun have great chemistry and knowledge on a wide range of topics in Azeroth and IRL. The show always puts a smile on my face with its fun antics and tangents.

    Can’t wait to dive into the War Within soon with y’all!

    I love y’all.

  • A Chronicle and Resource to Cherish

I’ve been listening to current episodes to keep up to date, but also pouring through the archives to get the scoop on how players thought and felt about the game during the expansions I missed. It’s been a wonderful chronicle to listen through. I appreciate the different view points based on how each host plays the game, as we all have our own spin on things. Anyway... more

  • Entertainment but Not Informative

    While these people clearly love World of Warcraft, this show failed to capture me. It doesn’t really provide any useful information outside of the hosts’ opinions. Might work for some people, but I found it difficult to enjoy.

#318 - For Azeroth!: “Rook and Rooftops”
Q: How did you get into just playing MMOs? What brought you to the genre?
Rook shared that they were primarily a single player gamer until they discovered MMOs. They had a restriction at home against computers and gaming, but once they got their own platform, they dove into all the games they had longed to play.

Q: What can World of Warcraft learn from Elder Scrolls Online's housing system?

FAZ 308 - Augmented Release Schedule
Q: What was the community sentiment on Ogg when it was released and up until right now?
There are a lot of different opinions on augmentation as we go. There's a pretty uninformed discussion where some want to delete the spec, while others see it as a valiant experiment.
