WoW Forever Bans Everyone | Minecraft Expands 14 Years Later | Gamified 178

What's the biggest deal in WoW Forever currently? And how important is it for games to listen to streamers being that streamers are not technically normal players?

Is November going to be the greatest month in gaming history with WoW Forever, Ocarina of Time, and GTA 6?

What's the word that you'd use to describe enjoying a game until you find out it uses AI?
