WoW Moviewatch: WoW Horders

It's interesting to note that Wowcrendor didn't fall back on any of his standard tropes here, such as the Go Guy. That's a good thing; it keeps his videos from becoming stale and allows him to push forward with his Crendorverse. (That's my word, not his.) If he weren't adding new characters and new jokes, his mythos would become stale and stagnant. It's a subtle hint at Wowcrendor's talent hat he doesn't fall into that trap.

Heh, actually just watched this one earlier today. Hilarious as always.

It was funny, but not one of his best.

I probably would've found this funnier if my bank wasn't filled with 5 years worth of crap that I can't seem to get rid of...

My main has this issue as well, 30 tabards, a bunch of holiday crap, old trinkets no longer available in the game, trinkets that do crazy things like make rainbows or peasants or windmills, old gear sets, cool looking quest rewards like the Boat Wheel shield and the frying pan off hand, and various rep items for when I get less lazy to finish the exalted grinds, and probably a bunch of stuff I'm forgetting.
Luckily my alts don't have this issue :D

Don't feel bad. I have a Guild Bank dedicated to flavor text gray items (I used to collect gray sets of clothing like Twill for RP outfits) and off-hand fish and other assorted crap like the 1 Ring.

ROFL, awesome parody!

It's funny because it's true....I have multple banks alts because of all the crap I hoard in game.

This speaks to me ^^ Full bags & bank on main and alt. But...but...must...keep...cool items like The Shoveler and Librarian's Paper Cutter! And, uh, 3 years worth of Halloween drops? /facepalm

I actually joked on Twitter last year that I needed to be on Hoarders because they could help me clean out my bags/bank in WoW.
I doubt though that I could have made a parody of it as good as Crendor. Oh well.

I hope Blizzard adds "Wowcrendor's talent hat" as an epic in 4.2 ..... ;)

If I'm correct, I think Penny Arcade made a strip with a similar theme. Regardless, I'm a big fan of Wowcrendor and this video was all-around funny. Awesome post!

Reminds me of this Penny Arcade Strip:

As much as I love all of wowcrendor's stuff, and as close to home as this hits (bank FULL of all the old tier sets and old raid weapons), my favorite part is always the end credits. I'm a sucker for bad techno, and there's so much newgrounds music I've found thanks to wowcrendor I never would have known about! Kudos to him for geting some of these artists out there!

The difference between a Hoarder and a Collector: A Collector can afford to house his crap.

Win.

The Cataclysm helped. All my old quest items I had saved went poof. I don't remember 3/4ths of what exactly they were, so I feel its for the better ^.^
Chetti Mar 22nd 2011 2:44PM
@Twill the Cataclysm helped me too.. my main is an alchemist, and you know you can never have too many vials of all types.. I used to keep at least a stack of 5 of each in the bank in case I ever needed to make a potion, I had all vial types. Once the shattering hit, I had a couple stacks of broken vials to vendor.
Can't say the bank isn't still just about full, I've got trinkets and weapons and stuff that I just don't want to vendor.. maybe some lowbie herbs, i'm not sure.. At one point I did go through and vendor some things I know I wouldn't need/use, but there are just some things I don't want to get rid of.

OMG this is like looking in a mirror. LOL. Crendor's stuff is always so spot-on. :)
Yangli Mar 22nd 2011 7:18PM
Hmm... I just remembered... what happened to how to Paladin? You didn't feature him forever, or has he stopped making videos? (What a shame would that be!)
StClair Mar 22nd 2011 10:11PM
Oh yeah, that's me.
