It's been a long three years of waiting for the World of Warcraft: Shadowlands expansion to drop, but today's the day, and fans couldn't be happier. The release was originally scheduled for October 27th, so this last month has been especially painful for those aching to spend most of their waking hours gaming. As is to be expected, anxious gamers have been filling Reddit and Twitter with memes about Shadowlands. Some have to do with the anxiety-inducing process of choosing a covenant. Others focus more on relinquishing sleep for gameplay. We're just happy to have another way to occupy ourselves during all these quarantines and lockdowns. Shadowlands couldn't have come at a better time.

This 4chan meme is for the Warcraft III fans! It features character Arthas Menethil saying, "This entire city must be purged." Read more about it here at Know Your Meme!

Blizzard released their faithful recreation of the original World Of Warcraft in late August, and people are still going absolutely wild over the nostalgic experience. Gamers, especially people who came up on WoW, are loving the release (yes, a subscription is still required) and there are plenty of gaming memes devoted to Classic its release. Here are some of our favorites. 

Gaming can be addictive, but have you ever wondered which drugs your favorite games actually resemble? Well, the fine folks at Dorkly have done the work for you. Which is probably for the best. Because drugs are bad, right? 

Life goes, it's as simple as that, the slow march of time is one that none of us can avoid. Inevitably we all end up hanging on to that moment or two (or five or ten) that really left a sweet taste in our mouth. That moment when everything was just as it was meant to be and worry or doubt were laid to rest for a time.

As gamers, there inevitably are games that hit at the right time and place in our life where we can truly enjoy them to their fullest. What are yours?
