Drama Time - Breaking Casual Law

[@alteredsenses8975]

Preach's ability to read stories and make them entertaining is almost unnatural.

[@light18pl]

Is it possible to learn this power?

[@razvancraciun7500]

He's been doing this for a lot of years now so yeah he got some skill after the hundreds of stories he read

[@hoorah92]

Ummmm hello? People make a living doing this as Audiobook narrator's. Preach is funny yeah and does well with these, but have you even heard of michael kramer, kate Reading, or Jeff Hays? Pretty great as well

[@Marenjok]

Day9 Story time is also great if you like Drama time

[@zazuggo3367]

He must have made a deal with the Jailer.

[@jereXIX]

“A child’s escape room puzzle”....so Mike went to a IRL LFR.

[@Veolynn13]

how dare you insult children escape room puzzles to LFR

[@onyourleft5648]

How he nails the emotions of the character while also ironically making fun of them in the same stroke while reading the story is something I’ll never know

[@Escorducarla]

Look, as someone who has been off and on this WoW crack ride for over a decade, "we don't bring the Devil into this house" isn't actually THAT far off.

[@martinmp19]

Hahaha

[@rexn97]

It's pretty spot on actually. WoW is a horsemen of utter decadence of the human spirit into a Hollowed shell of your former self.

[@AnlStarDestroyer]

The Bible Belt devil stuff is so true lol. I had friends who weren’t allowed to watch Harry Potter because it made witchcraft look cool 😂

[@scroom1202]

As a Roman Catholic I can tell you that this is extraordinary Protestant thinking. Jahova's Witness and Baptist level nonsense. It just sucks that people think Christians are one big group.

[@dapineaple]

@@scroom1202 It's more a Southern Baptist thing. But in high school there was a scuffle when I introduced D&D to my youth group. It was solved when my Youth Pastor told the church that the entire youth group would leave if they kept pushing this, and after our senior pastor sat in on a session.

[@nagwg7]

Big big same.

[@AK-fr5zv]

@@dapineaple Did he play a cleric?

[@herbeste]

This is why I let people play new games by themselves for awhile before joining them.

[@steveblease]

I thought that girl had played wow before? Clearly not.

[@mongoosemcmongoose2786]

As soon as you said “ragnaros” I knew this story had taken a turn for the worse

[@patricklapinski1526]

Im a simple man. I see ragnaros in their io i click decline

[@mongoosemcmongoose2786]

@@patricklapinski1526 yes, this part of the story is very overlooked, and I think mike doesn’t realize the terrors of ragnaros, and it’s terrible kin gallywix, goldrinn, and a few others

[@MrShivshank]

some blood dks are super hard to heal. especially the ones that eat shit for big deathstrike heals....

[@acidchild8333]

Back in my day we raided 3 days, 3 hours a week! *Shakes old man fist*

[@Freestyle80]

I hope you did mythic level content atleast...

[@GalvinW]

Like always this stuff is hysterical. Thanks!

[@Illuminatis23]

and it was atthis point in time he realized: She was a complete noob

[@AdventCloudStrife]

That first story tells me all I needed to know about the sort of person who rolls hunters.

[@Lrh90]

Never watched a Drama Time before. Preach wearing a Def Leppard shirt. Will be watching again

[@idasilvonsaari7726]

My eight year old is playing the starter island independently.. that first story is just sad. No it's not worth!

[@veradrost9654]

To be fair to her, adult non-gamers pick up gaming way slower than kids do, most of the time. All I judge her for is her random anger.

[@idasilvonsaari7726]

@@veradrost9654 that's my mail n reason for it not being worth trying. But from how I heard it she had played before, but not in a long time, as she complained about them making the game harder

[@Amy4000]

Was not prepared for the Dossiers!

[@KobraKomander]

Lol. Mike when he ate "his hotdog"

[@marioStortuga]

Was it worth is killing me. No not worth.

[@PrimarchRoboleonFrenchyman]

Mom: WoW is devil's work Son: *make a death knight female worgen* Me: You were right all along

[@encorv]

yeah raiding 42% of all nights is casual :D

[@zKazzu]

was it worth had me rolling and getting physically mad at the same time

[@Timmy2by4]

Ahhhh yes watching this 7 months into 9.0 and hearing how bad fire mages and holy pallies are during prepatch...

[@Tainted0ne1138]

One thing I learned is to never tell a healer they are doing anything wrong. You will no longer receive anymore healing. Healers are petty AF.

[@mgardne20]

Watched it live and watching again because well.....drama time!!

[@raccoon9469]

3 days a week is a dedicated team to me and the whole reason I don't raid. 3 days is looked at as normal and I can't swing that with work + life

[@EloquentTroll]

I started a Cow Paladin when prepatch hit, and I really like Retribution!

[@vtheman1850]

I really need to send my Legion Drama guild story one day. Two cutting edge raiders in a guild progressing normal.... I was... stunned

[@40Gallant04]

For the first story, Preach only wants you to do it again just so you can write a follow-up and thus he has more content lol

[@MCG55SS]

Oh shit..."you can zoom out". My brain just broke...had she played in wrath really.....lol I doubt it

[@AnnihilatorCZ]

That casual guild was more like an intelligence agency.

[@cameronslayer1373]

sometimes all the patience in the world doesn't help

[@Badatname]

The first story showed the birth of a future LFR raider.

[@hardlyaaron]

First guy dodged a bullet, count yourself lucky.

[@gonzaloperez1427]

Preach such into character that he even spits at mic at 27:16

[@Joeyfield0]

Really into character. I had to pause the video and contemplate life for a bit.

[@JAmes-no4yk]

The first story is literally what I deal with everyday working at Verizon.

[@krisseybe]

Listen... I haven’t played since Cata... i knew how to change servers, I knew how to navigate the character screen, I knew how to follow a quest, I knew how to set my interface to auto loot...

[@daniellep.294]

The girl in the first story "Nah, I don't need to read tutorials." ... "What the fuck why is Blizzard so bad, this game is so broken."

[@FirstLast-le7cx]

When I was a kid I couldn't play wow because "warcraft" sounds too much like witchcraft. After years of trying to convince my parents they looked through the game and I was only allowed to play a hunter or warrior because because were the only ones that "didnt use witchcraft"

[@TheGoodColonel]

As a Main Tank, I almost smashed my keyboard while hearing this lmao

[@Damiv]

Poor DH nerfed into the fucking ground.

[@Tobizard1]

forgot i joined the patron and was very shocked to hear preacher say my name as i bit into my sandwich

[@SNE4KZ]

I don't have the patience to teach a new player wow. I try so hard with my kids but I have to just let them go off and do there thing and just answer any questions.

[@Gravewhisper]

I just started watching Drama Time Season 1. I think, Preach got a bit tamer over time :D

[@angelus877]

We do 2 days for like 3.5 hours and we extend on the last few bosses, argus took 3 months, nzoth took 2 months of extends. It's fine, getting cutting edge is what matter regardless :P

[@robertgreen6433]

Wife Boss enrage timer went off. Mike must grind rl gnome rep with kids

[@btka13]

casual mythic be generally for those not good enough to actually kill the later mythic bosses because its to hard for them as the first half generally are ez af

[@BunzLee]

Drama time, let's go!

[@mikale27]

Best time of the week!

[@jeffreymcgraw1790]

I keep waiting for the line " it was then...I realized she was stupid"...

[@AikanaroSauron]

2 days, 3 hours each. And I wish we went down to 1 day because It's boring and tiresome to be the top DPS and coming to a whole raid for just one or two items that you know will never drop since you're out of luck. The worst part is that I can't even switch to my alt for that because "ur top DPS bruh, we need you".

[@EveloGrave]

I raid 2 days a week 4 hours every night. It's a weekend thing so it works out. The other team goes 3 days a week for the same total hours.

[@bradstock7274]

the second story had me in stiches

[@Daggersong]

The Was it worth it story reminds me of playing with my wife and why i don't play with her in this game. She does her pet battles and i do my raiding. :)

[@Joeyfield0]

48:06 NO. Lackluster is not a casual word. If you played among us, you'd be sus just as fast as i was, only this time you really are the imposter.

[@CuthiePatootie]

Three days a week is a lot. >.> One day, 3-4 hours.

[@xxxxxrandom]

While actively raiding my guild does 2 x 4 hours per week.

[@zomg346]

Oh shit just as I was about to start my graveyard shift this got uploaded

[@zacksporen]

Mike's "PVP bro" voice gets me everytime.

[@potentiallyRealWarrenGraham]

Right at the start, some dude in chat wrote "Senjougahara best waifu" This must be the most truthful statement ever written in twitch chat history

[@sakuri88]

Suruga Kanbaru is #1 imo, anything is better than Snake though

[@shii5795]

Oof. Female Worgen? Why would anyone play a worgen? Especially in cata when they all had sinus infections and couldn't stop snorting phlegm?

[@orangemc9358]

Dude. WoW as a first date would be a nightmare. Even if they were familiar with video games, never. All that explaining, hand holding, nah. I want to have fun as well

[@kazeshinu]

Really want to play magicka again now... such fun game it was

[@Pnaraasi94]

Still is.

[@EloquentTroll]

The first story makes me embarrassed for my gender. I've been playing for a while now, but I saw Taliesin not guide his brother through the starting area, and he had never played WoW before. Nevermind someone who played the have back when it was harder. I quit in TBC and came back in Legion and the only thing that messed me up was the collection menu, and the fact that cows could be Paladins.

[@someoneelse307]

Not gonna lie, that first one was hard to listen too. Brought back some PTSD from the past.

[@AStrategyGameDev]

17:41 oh no... shes omega pleb.

[@acetown2263]

Yes the bible belt is as intense as people make it out to be in some parts. It's not exadurated haha

[@lexzbuddy]

Sub is on hold until after it has all gone live. I will wait until everyone has level capped and find out if Shadow lands is nice or naff. BFA just got worse and worse. We shall wait and see how this thing goes.

[@Samurowow]

35 minutes for a character creation is quite decent. It took my gf around 2 hours to create a character and decide for a name x.x

[@Makalon102]

The game logs you out if your on that screen for 30 minutes

[@Mikenotkip]

@@Makalon102 not if you are actively clicking things

[@Freestyle80]

2 days a week is normal now, 3 days is for mythic guilds any heroic guilds that raids 3 days a week is not worth joining at all

[@Vatolicious]

Should be required to include logs with some of these stories

[@TheSmartNacho]

my guild does tuesdays and thursdays for 5hrs each

[@HTMB96]

Anyone know where I can find the video he mentions at the start? The mythic plus race between preach and fin? Or is it still to be uploaded?

[@scottyhuntington8753]

I returned about a year ago after a long lay-off and found many of the changes jarring. I can understand the struggles of the lady in the first story. I’ve since figured out most things.

[@filipbatora7523]

I´ve done the new starter island, both alone and with friend and it´s absolutely amazing at teaching new players how to play the game. It holds your hands pretty much in everything, such as telling you to loot mobs if you forgot to do it, teaching you to put your spells on action bar and so on. It´s baffling to me how someone could see it as difficult. It´s day and night compared to previous new player experience.

[@matthewdudley1363]

For more data points on "casual mythic" guilds. They do exist. We get cutting edge every tier on 2 4 hour nights a week. We typically do take almost the whole tier to clear though.

[@rayvg7709]

Most people wouldn't call 8 hours a week of raiding casual.

[@skechyassmofo]

Casual is a subjective term.

[@Eyeriz96]

12:12 most unenthusiastic "I was hyped as shit"

[@Xbob42]

Is there a longer version of that intro? It cuts off so abruptly every time!

[@Draugheim]

How are you able to burn out on retail world of warcraft. That should be what's worrisome

[@cameroncouch3878]

2 days for 3 hours a day. AOTC every raid in BFA.

[@ignispurgatorius5297]

First story, if you could make it inot a picture, would be the perfect example of the "bullet dodged" meme. Edit: I guess I should have listened to the end of the story. Lol, no it's not worth it. Seriously, only misery awaits. Especially if your goal is located inside their pants, just imagine if some accident happens and you are now forever bound to that crazy wreck! The guy was lucky and didn't just get a smal glimpse of the real person, he saw the full eldritch horror awaiting him. There are better ones out there, even for nerds :p

[@packmanGB]

Damm man put up a spoiler alert , I haven't played the new starting zone.

[@Zephryus101]

Yo Preach I"m a yank from Texas and I must say how much I enjoy ur weekly show that blasts the bad guys for being just stupid and the few good guys on ur show!!!!! Thanks for being a staunch (er sorta) Brit! keep up the funny work ! a Texan from across the ole Pond :))

3 days a week isnt casual anymore. #thruth

Looks like the new raid will release during Christmas😒

[@Anivia92]

Most guilds I see anymore only do one day a week. maybe haha

[@drenth27]

i raid 6 nights a week 4 hours we clear each raid all difficulties we are 7/8 EP and 5/12 Ny'alotha

[@scorpiowarrior7841]

HA, JUST IN TIME! Also, my group does two days a week. Friday we go three hours saturday we go four-five.

[@sydalg95]

Almost missed it!

[@PayoMetal]

I freaking raid 5 days a week and take a whole patch to Cutting Edge. I'm the worst.

[@frazerrhughess]

Anyone else playing prepatch on an older pc that was running wow just fine before pre patch and now it barely runs the game and is slow as hell?

[@jackbale4840]

Blizz have done a graphics overhaul in preparation for the new content. New system requirements have come in.

[@blindfire3167]

Graphics overhaul and idk if they kept the requirement or made it a highly recommended, you *need* an SSD to play it

[@filipposme]

Mate you need to install bttv so that we can see the KEKWs

[@drunkenprayer8390]

There is no way that first story is real. Nobody can be that stupid. I could believe almost some of it until they said she didn't know how to zoom out. The only thing less believable would be if they said she didn't know you could look around using the mouse.

[@squidly1117]

Simpin is simpin

[@nixiedreamstar]

30min? 3h A WEEK?!?! I play FF XIV and my team does 3 days each 3h O_O. (and like Preach after we get it on farm mode its like 1 day per week for 1/2 months). WoW Casuals... tsc tsc tsc

[@Joeyfield0]

29:26 I have the gavel. My judgement: she doesn't like the game. So for her sake, it is not worth.

[@dvolsung1527]

Casual shouldn't equal shit at the game. You can play a game without making it your life and still be good at the game. Honestly, I feel like if you raid casually you should strive to be very good at your class given that people playing with you likely have giant time/life constraints and you being shit chews into their time. In my opinion, casual raiding should just mean you can't play hours a day everyday. So efficiency should be the goal, not just going into endgame content undergeared and unprepared.

[@menarg1549]

3 days a week? fkin nolifer lmao xD

[@lexzbuddy]

I hate Death Knights. I rolled one when they arrived back in the day. I finally got him out of the starting area then leveled him up. That alone took years, it was so boring. I finally got the grim little twat to max level, years have passed. I can say with my hand on my heart, I absolutely and totally hate playing DK. I kid you not, all those years, no exaggeration; hated everything, every minute. I tried to get into it, I tried, I really did. I've got at least one of everything and had to do the DK to complete the full set. I leveled every class from 1 to 120. I didn't like monk much but the DK was the worst.

[@tonikusler8055]
