That last story reminds me of how I met some of my best gaming friends. It was in GW1 and I got a rando invite to join a guild. It was super tiny (counting me it was maybe 10). The guild leader was significantly older than all of us. The only officer was in college, I was in high school at the time, and another two were just starting middle school. The GM seemed like a cool guy and wanted us to talk on vent since he didn't like typing. There's no twist or anything. The GM, two middle schoolers, and I ended up becoming close and swapped over to wow not long after I joined. That GM turned out to be an amazing voice of reason in my life. If I knew then what I know now the moment he asked me to get on VC I probably would've bailed but I'm honestly glad I didn't.
GW1 was my first MMO and to this day I’ve yet to encounter such a lovely community. I played WoW concurrently with GW1 til end of EoTN (and about 2 years after), and while I made some lifelong friends in WoW, every guild had an element of drama or players who were toxic; GW still stands as my most wholesome multiplayer experience and still count some of my old Guildmates as some of my closest RL friends.
'you can brush your teeth with a screwdriver' holy shit i nearly died!!!! love you mike, you've gotten me through some shit and appreciate you and you're team more than you can imagine, much love, keep up the good work
52:07 oh my god, that was the pug guild i was in from late wod in an attempt to get back into raiding again. did a total of 3 raids with them between wod and legion and then immediately went to another guild. from what i heard from friends in that old guild, they indeed, could not kill ursoc normal. for at least 2 weeks
hahahaha! I just watched the "Skill Spectrum" Drama Time, and then I watched this one, and saw the graphic in the background. You're amazing, Preach! Thanks for everything, my dude.
Lets take a moment to recognize that a family of at least 5 had 4 computers and was able to buy 4 copies of WoW with the sub in 2004. That is a rich ass family
I love your content Preach, you do a lot of great and informative work, you're a source of news and analysis I trust. But despite not learning anything other than more disdain for humanity from Drama Time, it's my favorite thing you do.
But 12y old Girls r fine? Remember a 11y Girl that kept following me around in wow. She did not understand English (we both swe), ended with me ignore her becuse she was so irritated.
Casual in my sense is I don't do required/scheduled raids anymore. Raiding in my guild is optional, which makes it casual to me. So I can join the raid whenever I feel like it. Usually only works with flex raid sizes like heroic and normal.
How the hell am i in the tradechat everytime this first story guy mentions trade chat. I remember that day... First time i was there in a part of drama time story.
oh god that one day in shadowlands and night fae. didnt even get into the story and my brain was thinking of 'is it the ride ysera bug or the cage in the maw?' both I saw and the cage im stuck on T_T
I'll never forget my friend introducing me to wow in 7th grade during BC. We both met a hunter on my realm who taught us the game and helped us out. Dude was 45 at the time and worked on oil fields in Texas. Coolest fucking dude I've ever met on wow, all 3 of us played together for years until he basically quit and just didn't have time for wow anymore. I always knew signals to look out for being younger at the time and never had issues playing with people who were older than me. Shit all the friends I still have and the guild I raided with in wotlk were easily all 15+ years older than me and now that I'm 26 I still am close with some of them over all these years.
OH MY!!!! That last raid group!!!!!!! I was in it!!! I know that MW monk that got kicked, he was on my server (Frostmourne)! And immediately he started messaging me about how that group sucked. I played my unholy DK in that raid! I was running it to get my haste trink off Raden. Which I got that night!
I was in a guild back in MoP. they paid for my xfer so i could raid with them. I found out after the xfer that the guild was a "family guild" luckily it worked out for the most part and were able to clear heroic raids as #2 guild on the low pop server that we were on, lol but it was fun til someone wanted to go to 25m for more gear.... when we had a total of 11 raiders (this was before mythic and flex raiding)
Hearing that first impression of oribos, almost 2 years later, I have to say they are dead on. I hate that place. It's more an airport terminal than a city.
Online games have allowed for a few odd personality to surface. As in the "mythic" story, some players "know" they are great guild leaders, or fighters, or battle commanders. But they aren't. Others seem to see other player characters as slightly more annoying mobs.
Force all the tanks to tank a fresh +2 up to +15, and make your decision by how many deaths each tank had regardless of why the death happened. Log all runs. Make the decision, and kick anyone who crys about it.
So I quit near the end of legion, but I listened to your drama times from WoD to Legion and there was another guy named ghosty he was your partner, I’m back to playing and still love your content, but where did mr ghosty go! That dude was hilarious.
I have opted into several beta's for WoW and never once been accepted. This time I would like to just thank Blizzard sincerely for rejecting my beta application.
When I see a young kid is playing the game as someone who doesn't want the game to die I want to help them out and quest with them or give them a little gold but they'd have to be in their later teens for me to try to try and actually be friends and raid together.
In their defense, regarding the quests as the first quest in the cov campaign, it was the same in BFA. Not really a defense cause it was garbage then too, but it does seem to be the "standard" now.
lol i got into beta played for months issues from first week of beta still there at the end of it GREAT, time off i planned said fuck it where going camping cause no wasting a 4 day weekend.
A small change to step up your RUclips game, if I may: Timestamps in the description for each individual story, starting with "00:00 - Intro", so that each story is shown as a seperate section of the timeline. I often find myself revisiting old Drama Times for specific stories, and while finding the correct episode itself is quick, scrolling to the exact beginning of the story I want is sometimes annoying. No need to go back four seasons, but going forward, timestamps would be nice for the RUclips crowd. Fucking "where is Thorgast" tickled me well good.
@@harambe4267 That's what I was referring to with "sections in the timeline". It'd make finding the beginning or ending of a story a lot simpler, as a story might not start when the title in the overlay is typed in due to Mike blabbering on, et cetera. He did enthusiastically mention a search function, though, so I imagine Drama Time will get more improvements anyway.
I appreciate the last story. I just wish I'd had similar good experiences with Latin American guild groups. I've joined at probably a dozen of these PUGs and they all failed horribly. No one did mechanics and people were doing like 10k DPS. -.-
Wait.. An airforce fighter pilot was involved in a Army two seat Apache helicopter? While yes they will take up someone as a sandbag on a maintenance test flight, those are usually pretty safe flights. Were they practicing inverted flight while rangers ran on the underside of the blades?
It's fun because looking back now they've gotten so much credit for "delaying" the xpac to make it work better but here we are still playing the same season in wow. I'm pretty sure it was marketing that made the delay look "good" while in reality they just fuckin delayed it for no real reason
"Have you seen Torghast though m8" had me rolling so hard 🤣
When he got up out the chair 😂
“Have you seen ‘im??” I was dying at work lol
Every time Mike does his "m8 m8 m8, do you even pvp doe m8" it kills me.
U try war mode doe m8?
Fucking love it
@@SpartSubLH exactly lol
I was in tears
"Have you tried war mode though mate" My god this drama time had me roaring 😂
"It works sometimes"
“Have you seen torghast though m8!?”
*starts wheeling the chair around *
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

This first story really just was "I played beta, and it was beta" but in cursive
I mean, that's an unusual amount of gamebreaking bugs to encounter so close to release.
"Played the Beta 5 weeks before the supposed release, and it was beta."
@@camzoman will say, I did comment this without noticing the mention of it being close to 27th
He said he also beta tested half the expansions of wow so him being surprised at the bugs actually says something
@NuBz they can and they do so
that last story also could having called
that Ragnaros PUG that could
hahahaha! I just watched the "Skill Spectrum" Drama Time, and then I watched this one, and saw the graphic in the background.
You're amazing, Preach! Thanks for everything, my dude.
These stories have me cracking UP. I absolutely love drama time. Subbed and bell 🛎 ON! Personality you have is so refreshing and funny.
Perfect for me to watch on my night shifts. Ty Preach
Preach for PRESIDENT!
Preach!
Agree
For hypocrisy, that would be, probably the worst day in the human history.
My word a two hour special... dude im gonna have to break this up. Well done.
one of the most enjoyable streams I've watched in a while. thank you
I am loving american-preach-batman voice lol
Lets take a moment to recognize that a family of at least 5 had 4 computers and was able to buy 4 copies of WoW with the sub in 2004. That is a rich ass family
I love your content Preach, you do a lot of great and informative work, you're a source of news and analysis I trust. But despite not learning anything other than more disdain for humanity from Drama Time, it's my favorite thing you do.
Preach's "edgy" voice is on point.
I’m Batman
"it's not a good idea to befriend 12 y/o boys" - Preach.
But 12y old Girls r fine? Remember a 11y Girl that kept following me around in wow. She did not understand English (we both swe), ended with me ignore her becuse she was so irritated.
Last one was epic. Almost as great as “Jenn” and her old saggy melons plastered all over the guild forums 🤣
That one was a legend for sure. Guild Grandma gets it 🤣
which episode was the Jenn one?
That fake military dude impression is the beans. Awesome man 😄😅
I'm a healer main who sucks at DPS too, I feel bad for her, that's basically my worst nightmare.
For some inexplicable reason there was a guy who went on the beta and bitched about people discussing spoilers. He claimed it was "A simple request."
I also find it amazing that this guy joined the beta and was surprised that there were bugs.
That transition to the 2nd drama time scared the fuck outta me cause it was really loud rofl
The "Success Story" was best hands down.
As soon as I saw the title on the bench with the rest of the wives I was like “bet it’s a healer priest” and it was.
There was a time parents wanted enough kids to fill a football team. Nowadays it's 3 to fill the dungeon grp xD (2 for FFXIV)
Casual in my sense is I don't do required/scheduled raids anymore. Raiding in my guild is optional, which makes it casual to me. So I can join the raid whenever I feel like it. Usually only works with flex raid sizes like heroic and normal.
dude, the rainbow and kain story made my sides hurt
I thought he would've killed the Kain guy, but when he said he went and killed his sister I was shook. Amazing play
Last story was really good enjoyed that
How the hell am i in the tradechat everytime this first story guy mentions trade chat. I remember that day... First time i was there in a part of drama time story.
Hearing these stories now make me sad thinking how blizz did wow
Am I a Good GM guy,
You should've said simply "we don't have any issues with tanks, so we don't want to change any of our tanks. No trials."
oh god that one day in shadowlands and night fae. didnt even get into the story and my brain was thinking of 'is it the ride ysera bug or the cage in the maw?' both I saw and the cage im stuck on T_T
10:34 Tradechat Torghast I rewatch and laugh so many times
"Where Torghast at mate?!?" Cracked me up SO HARD rofl
Bro, that Kain voice is the greatest thing I've ever heard. Been watching you for 7 years and that was fucking amazing. Hell yes, brother
“...With dreams they can never hope to achieve.”
So, me just in general, then?
Little did we know, Torghast was a block of wood too!
"I did my best to ignore them" didn't /leave general did ya tho
For real, that kind of shitposting is usually done by a group of 10-20 regulars that can be easily ignored to never be bothered again.
WHAAAAAT? Bugs in a beta? Inconcievable!
I'll never forget my friend introducing me to wow in 7th grade during BC. We both met a hunter on my realm who taught us the game and helped us out.

Trying to work out and listen to that Torghast story was a mistake. I'm dying.
1:20:34 I was not ready for such a speech but it revived a part of my soul
OH MY!!!! That last raid group!!!!!!! I was in it!!! I know that MW monk that got kicked, he was on my server (Frostmourne)! And immediately he started messaging me about how that group sucked. I played my unholy DK in that raid! I was running it to get my haste trink off Raden. Which I got that night!
Yes, the MW monk was from Frostmourne. I'm glad the trinket dropped for you.
This was the best episode since a back-to-back master pair in S2.
Though very poor that only 1 person commented that Spanish means notBrazil
Pure GOLD! Great vid!
At this point need a best of drama time series.
This never fails to entertain. Never laughed so much. Thanks
I was in a guild back in MoP. they paid for my xfer so i could raid with them. I found out after the xfer that the guild was a "family guild" luckily it worked out for the most part and were able to clear heroic raids as #2 guild on the low pop server that we were on, lol but it was fun til someone wanted to go to 25m for more gear.... when we had a total of 11 raiders (this was before mythic and flex raiding)
Kain's invisible loot gave me the biggest cackle.
The mention of Beta Trade chat triggered me so hard.
Last story had me crying 🤣😂
Hearing that first impression of oribos, almost 2 years later, I have to say they are dead on. I hate that place. It's more an airport terminal than a city.
Secret Blizzard Airforce Guild sounds like something that I'd kickstart.
Online games have allowed for a few odd personality to surface. As in the "mythic" story, some players "know" they are great guild leaders, or fighters, or battle commanders. But they aren't. Others seem to see other player characters as slightly more annoying mobs.
Bro I am literally fkin dying laughing .. you are hilarious !! You need to do more like this !!!!!!!!!!
Watching these pre-hair transplant videos is a trip
Been playing SL since alpha and this guy came into more bugs in a day then I did the whole time...
That first story. -chef kiss-
Lol don't wait for that email
Gotta say the LADYKILLERS has me rolling on the floor :D
Beautiful work
Force all the tanks to tank a fresh +2 up to +15, and make your decision by how many deaths each tank had regardless of why the death happened. Log all runs. Make the decision, and kick anyone who crys about it.
yea green alert is like a secret apache pilot code, because red alert is with u-boats
So I quit near the end of legion, but I listened to your drama times from WoD to Legion and there was another guy named ghosty he was your partner, I’m back to playing and still love your content, but where did mr ghosty go! That dude was hilarious.
i'd be that person that would track down kain and give him a good talking to if he tried that nonsense with my sister.
actually this comment ironically sounds like something he'd say
Preach seriously one of the best dramatic readers in the world
His voice is amazing in the Lady killer story haha
I have opted into several beta's for WoW and never once been accepted. This time I would like to just thank Blizzard sincerely for rejecting my beta application.
There's a jungle on the local on the west coast that happens, it goes,"Thank God it's Friday!"
When I see a young kid is playing the game as someone who doesn't want the game to die I want to help them out and quest with them or give them a little gold but they'd have to be in their later teens for me to try to try and actually be friends and raid together.

Warmode. 60% of the time, it works every time.
That first story is absolutely hilarious
Glad it got delayed but they better get it right because the stakes went up on its success with that move.
The beginning of the end.
Kain's voice 😂😂😂
Lol the tank story guy should get a M Nzoth lockout and see which tanks can actually handle down grp 1 Psychus. See who sucks real quick.
Last story, that surfer bro airforce voice.
you should have lead with the lady killer story. so good.
lol i got into beta played for months issues from first week of beta still there at the end of it GREAT, time off i planned said fuck it where going camping cause no wasting a 4 day weekend.
That hopeless dreams story Hahahaha that poor guy leading the “casual” crew rip
How are there still no subtitles for this video. :(
The ladykiller story was basically an RP story basically without being about RP lol

Fucking "where is Thorgast" tickled me well good.
As an American many Brit/English phrases chap my ass but “well good” is fucking great.
Or, if he really wants to go next level he can use that new(-ish) RUclips feature which marks segments on the progress bar.

Trolls are the greatest race ever! YOU TAKE THAT BACK YOU MONSTER!
One day Survival hunter is going to haunt you Preach.
One day.
In about 300 years.

This first story should be shown to anyone who is giving Blizz crap about delaying the expansion
I wouldnt say classic is casual, its easy but the time investment is anything but casual
The 12 year old made his mom more comfortable by cutting off contact so doesn't matter if creep or not, he made the right choice.
and so the time has come again to ask about the legacy of the DK
That spanish laugh was el crisp.
It's fun because looking back now they've gotten so much credit for "delaying" the xpac to make it work better but here we are still playing the same season in wow. I'm pretty sure it was marketing that made the delay look "good" while in reality they just fuckin delayed it for no real reason
im so mad i missed this on stream. would have been a blast lol.
That last story sounds like if a Karen played WoW.
War mode. 60% of the time, it works every time.
Parents who dont understand the internet are really the worst
