Straight answers for players, especially in Thailand and Southeast Asia.
NewsWhat is ARAM Mayhem Journey to Stardom?ARAM Mayhem Journey to Stardom gives every game a headliner band with its own rule. What each one does, which look strong, and why I won't grind ranks.
NewsWoW Forever name reservation: when is it, and is it worth it?WoW Forever name reservation opens 27 October: three names across every ruleset, pre-purchase only. Start times in Thai time, and why I'm not bothering.
NewsIs BULKHEAD making a Battlefield 2142 Titan game?Is BULKHEAD making a Battlefield 2142 Titan game? It has a prototype codenamed Titan, but it's sticking with WARDOGS. Why 2142 was one of my best Battlefields.
GuideIs DayZ worth playing in 2026?Is DayZ worth playing in 2026? Not for me. I played the DayZ mod a lot in 2012 and tried standalone again: it's still janky, boring and monotonous.
GuideDota 2 or League of Legends in 2026?Dota 2 or League of Legends in 2026? Dota is the better game, but League is the one you're more likely to enjoy. From 1,000 hours of Dota and League since 2012.
GuideIs League of Legends worth playing in 2026?Is League of Legends worth getting into in 2026? Yes, but it's hard on your own: the tutorial won't show you the nuances you miss. A player since 2012.
GuideIs Minecraft worth it on Switch?Is Minecraft worth it on Switch? Not really. I streamed Minecraft on Switch in 2020 and it's a janky port. Mobile beats it, and Java on PC beats everything.
GuideIs Path of Exile 2 better than Path of Exile 1?Is Path of Exile 2 better than Path of Exile 1? Yes, and the WASD movement is great on a ranged build. But it hasn't hooked me like PoE 1 did over 400 hours.
GuideIs Project Zomboid multiplayer worth it?Is Project Zomboid multiplayer worth it? Yes, if you're into it, especially if a friend is teaching you. Build 42 multiplayer went stable in July 2026.
NewsIs the Rust Halloween event worth coming back for?Is the 2026 Rust Halloween event worth coming back for? It depends why you stopped. Good for PvP players, but Rust is still a huge time sink. Lands 22 October.
NewsIs rolling downhill an exploit in WARDOGS?Is rolling downhill an exploit in WARDOGS? BULKHEAD says no. But a loaded Ural holding 142 km/h for 3 km is different, and the maths says a hill can't do it.
NewsIs WoW Forever just Classic?Is WoW Forever just Classic? No. I've played a lot of Classic and Forever feels different, even if I can't pin down why. And I think it will replace Classic.
NewsWhat gives Driver XP in WARDOGS Season 02?What gives Driver XP in WARDOGS Season 02? Supply runs, round trip streaks, repairs and the spawn vehicle. Refuelling pays Support XP instead.
GuideWhat RimWorld mods do I actually run?The RimWorld mods I actually run after 1,200 hours: mostly quality of life. Where I find new ones, and why new players should skip Combat Extended.
NewsWill WARDOGS Limited Mode servers fix the tank problem?Will WARDOGS Limited Mode servers fix tanks? They remove tanks, artillery and power weapons in update 0.25. I don't think a separate mode fixes the balance.
NewsWhy can't I buy pallets in WARDOGS?Why can't you buy pallets in WARDOGS? In Season 02 most supply pallets are locked: only building is open at first, and fuel costs $50,000 to unlock.
NewsIs the Bizon any good in WARDOGS Season 02?Is the Bizon good in WARDOGS Season 02? It's fine: free from the start on Medic, and what I'd use before a pistol. Plus why Driver needs its own gun.

GuideHow do you level fast in WARDOGS Season 02?Check the class icon on what you carry, then repeat one class's best action. Level 20 now needs less than half the XP, and repair XP goes to Driver or Pilot.
GuideWhat should you unlock first after the WARDOGS Season 02 wipe?Vehicles, or air: they pay for everything else and take longest. Season 02's new unlock levels and prices, and what I'd level alongside them after the wipe.
