Blizzard Watch Podcast: Quality of life improvements on the WoW Classic Anniversary realms

Join us as we discuss the dual spec, LFG, and gold accessibility features rolled out early on the WoW Classic Anniversary realms, the new heroes introduced with Hearthstone Battlegrounds Season 9, the upcoming PC beta of Blizzard’s Warcraft Rumble mobile game, the overwhelming number of promotions happening with WoW right now, and the launch of the much-anticipated Overwatch-clone, Marvel Rivals.

Baldur’s Gate 3’s 8th major patch will add 12 new subclasses

Despite the fact that Larian Studios is done with Baldur's Gate 3 and has stated that they have no intention of producing DLC for the game (up to the point of starting DLC, then canceling it, because it wasn't really coming from the heart), they keep dropping entire patches that -- on top of the expected bugfixes and such -- keep adding features on par with what other games would provide in (non-free!) DLC.

The Queue: Trinity Fusion

Trinity Fusion is the most recent game I’ve played to completion, and it’s quite the fun one. A metroidvania more akin to Metroid than to the (Castle)vania, it’s about sci-fi worlds that need to be merged in order to be saved — and you’re one of the few with avatars on all four of the worlds and therefore you get to play the hero. The main deviation from the standard formula is that it also embraces the rogue-lite formula popularized by games like Hades. Explore, die, repeat — but with the opportunity to play as different a person each time.

The story is a little light and sometimes it felt like the game did a poor choice of explaining what your current task was, but the gameplay, graphics and sound are amazing. I struggled with it more than typical because of its rogue-lite nature — having to reset each time I died ran counter to my standard metroidvania tactic of banging my head against a boss until I finally got it down — but eventually I was able to defeat the big bads and save the worlds. I’m looking forward to revisiting it when more free DLC is released (there have been two so far), but now I’m content to play something else for a bit.

While I download Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Mega Mix+ let’s answer some questions!
