This Week With Bellular!

Has anyone else been feeling sick or sniffly for far too long now?
We've had members of our squad struck down with the flu on and off the past while and it's made things hard.

We're hoping we get back to full strength soon and hope you guys do too if you're feeling poorly.

This past week and more we've also been thinking up ideas for the future of this site.
If you have any suggestions/feedback or QoL features for us on the site and are on our Members Discord, let us know in the "Site Questions and Feedback" channel.

For now though, here's our latest freebies and articles from this past week for your enjoyment.

This One's On Us

Looking back on this past week, it's been a heap of Legal trouble for a lot of companies.
It brought to mind these two Loading Screen articles, so enjoy them for free.

As well as those we aren't long out from the newest updates from WoW.
The last begin Season of Discovery gave us a lot of core lore so catch up while you can in our last freebie.

Loading Screen: Don’t Just Throw Devs At Problems, Stop Killing Games Update: UK Edition

Loading Screen: Street Fighter Success and the EU Take On Apple... Again

Bad news for Apple to start the week as their ongoing fight with the EU over app stores like the EGS continues - and could be very costly for them. They should talk to Capcom, who this week revealed that a bet made 30 years ago is still paying off to this date.

WTF Happened To Diablo 4?

Our Best This Week: Warcraft

The war drum beats like the tick of a clock and The War Within marches ever closer, but that doesn't stop Blizzard from both messing things up and mixing things up.
The end raid MAY have been spoiled from someone inside the team, but with the new Mythic+ affixes and the return to lands thought lost, we're being shown some enticing and exciting changes that should liven up WoW's endgame.

Video: Did TWW’s Final Raid Just Get Spoiled?

Ad Free Video! Like with Dragonflight, some silly goofs on Blizzard’s end MAY have spoiled 11.2’s raid - so let’s dig into what happened and what it means.
