I’ve been playing the card game Snap since I was a kid. I was also passing familiar with Pokémon Snap, but that played on “snapshot” rather than the card game. I assumed Marvel SNAP had gameplay similar to the card game, but also maybe had something in common with the Pokémon version, particularly the “catch em all” motif associated with TCGs. I’m not sure exactly when it hit me that the annoying all-caps brand styling emphasizing SNAP was depicted as cracked and disintegrating, a la the infamous Thanos Snap in the MCU, but man did I feel kinda stupid that it was more recent than it should’ve been.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and we’re probably on the ball enough to know the answer. Maybe.

So y’all asked a lot of questions about stuff coming up and I answered. I didn’t realize until after I answered that, hey, wow. That’s kind of a lot.

So this is The Queue, where you ask the questions, and then buckle up for the answers.

Overwatch is dead. Long live Overwatch.

Season 1 of Overwatch 2's Premium Battle Pass has a ton of cyberpunk-themed rewards on offer for players -- provided you work or pay your way through 80 tiers of play first.

While playing many Damage Heroes will feel like coming home when you start playing Overwatch 2, there are definitely some changes to how Damage Heroes work worth noting.

Overwatch 2 monetization via the new free Battle Pass and Premium Battle Pass is a hot topic but, much like turtles, it's microtransactions all the way down.

It’s weird, because I really, truly hated (and honestly on a gut level still hate) the monetization changes to Hearthstone‘s Battlegrounds, and yet now I find myself playing them more than ever before. I know I have a tendency to respond very strongly to external pressure — the even simple and completely arbitrary leaderboards on Duolingo lights my competitive streak, and I will learn French quicker than FirstnameBunchanumbers progresses through German. Even though the rewards track didn’t compel me to play before, now that the rewards are confined to Battlegrounds, and especially because they’re all cosmetic, I’m fighting tooth and claw to get them.

Also, weirdly, now that they got rid of SI:Sefin and added in Toxfin, I’m no longer calling for nerfs, while I’m also trying for the quest that lets me trigger as many Battlecries as possible. So much fairer! No, not because I’m the one playing it. Other reasons.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions, and we’ll answer them right after this game.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and we’ll answer them.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and honestly it doesn’t matter what we write because the real answers are in the comments.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and we hope you’d like to play a game.

We have pantry moths. Word to the wise, pantry moths become moths after being pantry larva. I don’t want to elaborate much more, other than I feel like I should give the Diablo 4 team a guided tour of my kitchen right now, just so they can capture this degree of creeping, disgusting horror. Or maybe Tirion Fordring circa 2006, just for a quick snack.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and hopefully you’ll forgive how short some of the answers are today, because I’m googling “how to make homemade flamethrower.”

We've been having a lot of fun in the Dragonflight beta -- when we manage to tear ourselves away from the Dracthyr character creator.
