Midnight and Gamescom were the core topic of this week's Blizzard Watch Podcast.

This week Epic Games is offering up two games for free that have fun, unique twists and turns to explore -- literally.

With the rigidity of the structure of the Kirin Tor and the Jedi Order, and their propensity for keeping secrets about power -- and sometimes that power for themselves -- there are a ton of parallels between these two organizations.

The expansion name Midnight is excellent because it’s rich with meaning — it implies and conjures the image of many different things, from colors to the doomsday clock. However, from an editorial point of view, I’m a little flummoxed because it feels like there should be so many more puns available to me with this name. And yet, it’s mostly just sloppy entendres so far.

This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask us questions, and we’ll mid-write them for you. Is that anything?

This week was dominated by the Midnight infodump from gamescom.

If you thought this week's show would be entirely about the new Midnight trailer and the information we're getting out of gamescom, you would be right.

This week Epic Games is offering up two cozy games that are favorites on the site for free, so you should definitely go grab them while you can.

Blizzard just gave us a look at the cinematic for their next expansion Midnight, and it seems literally anticlimatic.

Anything going on? Nothing important? Should I just play video games and watch youtube all day? There was a Hearthstone Battlegrounds balance pass slated for later today, maybe I’ll check that out.

This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask us questions and I might answer if you bribe me with peanut m&ms.

While we're all excited about the new trailer for Midnight from gamescom, Matt and Joe took this opportunity to discuss what narrative threads we may see in Midnight as a whole.
