Sue from uxdiary.com wrote about a very interesting topic.

In her job, she has to decide if she just does what the customer wants or what is right, cause most of the times the customer don’t know exactly what he truly needs.

It’s about what you need, not what you want…

I think these are hard situations and doesn’t fit for UX alone, it also happens in a lot of projects and while managing those.

My Stuff: StarCraft – Zeratul – Statue

This statue is a beauty, isn’t it?

Lots of details, the great paintjob and the pose of Zeratul made this piece a special one for me.
Not only that StarCraft as a game is simply great, Zeratul is one of it’s character and very well developed.

TheDarg0-Figure-StarCraft-Zeratul

The character of Zeratul was created by Blizzard Entertainment’s Chris Metzen, with concept art produced by other Blizzard artists such as Samwise Didier. Chris Metzen mentioned that Ritschel passed away sometime during the development of the game, and thus Fred Tatasciore has taken over as the new voice actor. Tatasciore described Zeratul as an incredible character, a “Darth Vader” who invests so much in the survival of things, and one of the best characters he has ever played. GameSpot described all the characters in StarCraft as “three-dimensional, full of personality and complexity”, and then continued to comment: “Yet even among this star-studded cast, it is Zeratul who stands out as the most noble of heroes, although he is shrouded in a cloak of mystery and aloofness”.

  • Product: Statue
  • Character: Zeratul
  • Dimensions: 25 cm (10″)

My Stuff: Warcraft – Murloc – Figures

Who doesn’t know the Murlocs from the Warcraft Universe?!

My edition consists of two blue Murlocs, there are also versions with 2 green and one blue / one green Murloc.

Murloc are amphibious creatures which dwell along the coastlines of the Eastern Kingdoms, and few other locations. Little is known about this species, although they seemingly have enough intellect to form societies and tribes, even having their own faith system. They have their own spoken language, although it is unpronounceable in the common tongue.
