It’s been a hectic week for me. So many games to play, so little time to play them! But, at last, the weekend has arrived.

This is The Queue, our daily Q&A column where we feel like a draenei runner delivering stolen black market crystals to an underground crime gang. It’s just the way things are sometimes.

Fresh off a triumphant return last week, Cory is back to discuss Heroes of the Storm again.

A bevvy of new items including mounts, pets, and transmogs, most notably the addition of Hallow's End style masks are available at the World of Warcraft Trading Post throughout October.

It’s October: the trees are changing colors, the ghosts are coming out to play. Time to sit under the stars as the nights get cold and see who comes out to play. (Probably a bear.)

But let’s not dwell too much while we wait. This is the Queue, our daily Q&A column where I will do my best to answer your questions and then we’ll all hang out in the comments section.

Every week the Epic Games Store gives away a game or two for free.

We have another super old Tavern Brawl returning in Hearthstone this week: A Dark Recipe gives players pre-made decks that summon the power of the Old Gods — at least, the way they did about 10 years ago.

S, T, U and V sold separately.

I’m not going to explain the Godzilla header.

Do you remember back in vanilla WoW, when we were tasked with things like bringing a guard his lunch, or trying to find some guy's wife who was taking a while to get back, and now we're spitting in the face of god and saving the soul of the world?

I gave in and played my first match of Heroes of the Storm in like 8 years. I stopped playing almost immediately after the HGC was shuttered. I was covering the league at that time so it was a combination of being sad, burnout, but also I had other fish to fry with other games, and I didn’t have to keep up with this one anymore, so. But yeah, it’s fairly fun. Remembering which button is which ability for which hero is a bit of a learning curve, so Brightwing, where all I technically need to do is stay sorta close to everyone else, is perfect for getting back into the Nexus.

This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask us questions, and eh, we’ll get around to it. Just one more game, first.

Like a snake, or maybe like a raid full of snakes, time slithers ever-forward -- and with the march of time, comes a new patch for World of Warcraft.
