Mhhm.

Get the pan hot, add some lard or some of the fat on the meat first

Brown the meat, don't burn it but brown it well

brown the mushrooms too, put them aside

deglaze the pan with a little bit of thunderbrew

add the meats back in

let simmer for an hour or so

add in the mushrooms, another ten minutes

enjoy

if you had collected more, some veggies or something, you'd have good stuff

>>747557431
It really depends on the company and not so much the country. It's just rare to find companies that let people take all their vacation at once. It's usually limited because they don't usually want people gone for 4-5 weeks at a time.

I get vacation time at my job as well, and I can take it whenever I want for the most part as well, but we just can't take 4-5 weeks at a time, of course I work in the retail industry so that makes sense.

What do classicfags offer? A sub fee and nothing else. Only the mentally ill retard that is retoilet players and their obsession with collectibles are willing to cough up 90 dollars for a reskinned mount.
Do you realize how little effort this requires to make a small fortune? Blizzard certainly does.

>>
>>747555769
A thousand new quests, 9 new dungeons or some shit with more to come, two new raids with more to come, and multiple new zones isn't enough? Also the talent trees are reworked, but that might not be for everyone. Lock talent trees are extremely different and classes have new abilities that haven't existed before with others being brought from expansions. Not trying to shill it or anything, though. I can get why you're not optimistic. I doubt I will play it.

I'm not that xenophobic, but I think western culture is just a bit superior.
I think you see it a lot in storytelling.
Like indians can't make movies with cool villains most of the time, the villain has to be weak and ugly, otherwise their general audiences will get confused and think he's the hero. A lot of the non western world is like that.

That's the problem yes. What people wanted was more classic WoW not the retail WoW philosophies put on top of classic WoW. Blizzard should have just hired a private server team to make this, completely outsource it to them and be hands off.

But as is, Forever looks bad. It's too overly monetized even during the preorder stage and there's too many superficial and needless systems(housing,transmogs,account wide meta progression).

Even having a beta is such a huge red flag, so much is going to be datamined unless they purposefully removed everything from the beta build. Season of Discovery avoided this because they KNEW it would kill the game. But they have to sell beta access for $60 (capped at level 30 btw).

Classic is still there, and it's fucking dead.

Blizzard is retarded and keeps splitting the player base over 10 different versions of WoW.

Only the blue elves that you hate.

>Did people pay for diaper gnomes, dwarf women with beards and pandas?
They did not. All of those were either free or came with expansions that people bought for other shit.
Also
>pandas
Fucking furries will pay for anything.

Layering isn't going anywhere

My problem with the "cool orc" idea in WoW is that most armors look like absolute dogshit on anything that's not a human or an elf of some sort.
Like I love the idea of playing as a Tauren, but the fact that they have hooves clipping through all leg armor and have textures stretched in weird way around helmets and necks just fucks with my OCD too much.

>It's too overly monetized
While I'd prefer for it to be completely free, it's literally just the subscription price once it launches, same as all the other classic servers + a one-time $20 payment if you must have the blue elves
As far as 2026 monetization trends go, that is generous af. Especially compared to some of the bs that was going on private servers everyone here keeps dickriding.
>housing
not in the game
>transmogs
probably the #1 most requested feature for classic+ after class rebalance
>account wide meta progression
literally taken from those same private servers you're gushing about

>literally going "nooooooo! not like that!"
kek
they made the content with the races in it, lazily recoloring elves just to readd them in is the most lowbrow lazy shit possible, there's no way to defend it.

The elves are $30. The Skyborne Housing Decor is for retail WoW apparently, my bad there.

Like most people outside of the US
