Podcast review: Warcraft World
Warcraft World
Description: "Warcraft World" Yeah, that's the complete description the show has on iTunes.
Host: Elliot
The presenter of this podcast has such a terrible voice that although I'm a huge fan of World of Warcraft, I just had to unsubscribe from his feed. If you can handle "Ummm" and "Ahhhh" liberally sprinkled through your podcast feeds and are a WoW fan, you might enjoy this. I doubt it though.
I get the impression that although the guy is enough of a WoW fan to start a podcast about it, he doesn't really know a whole lot about the game. He had a guest who was a self proclaimed Auction House guru. Frankly the guy didn't know shit - "buy low sell high", wow really? How about talking about mods to help your auction house experience? How about mentioning some sites that'll give you an idea about realistic prices for good you may want to auction?. If the host thought this guest knew his stuff, obviously he's even slower than his guest.
Before that he'd talked a bit about hunters and their pets. Now the first of my WoW characters to get to level 60 was a hunter and I can say with some small amount of authority that the guy was full of shit.
The last episode I listened to was "VOIPs Reviewed". This episode was even worse than usual. He played a MP3 sent in by a listener but the recording was completely fucked up, he blamed excess compression, and it sounded like it was done under water and then slowed down by 30%. If I was hosting that show, I'd not have played that clip. Ask the guy to rerecord it properly or something for fucks sake. Don't subject your listeners to almost 10 minutes of really bad sound.
If you want a dedicated WoW podcast, check out World of Warcast instead.
