You know, Brann’s all supportive of his brother in front of you, talking big about Magni’s sacrifice and how he’s really proud of everything he’s accomplished. But I really have to wonder — behind closed doors, was there ever a “So, my brother is a rock now I guess” conversation? I mean, all of the Bronzebeards just seem to accept this as a pretty normal occurrence.

Also, if Magni ever gets done with saving the planet and decides to settle down and start seeing people again, can we officially call it carbon dating?

I’m not sorry. Let’s get to your questions.

A stroll around Boralus had me stumbling upon an auction that brought back a flood of memories. Who here remembers the original Haunted Memento? Originally introduced during the Scourge Invasion event that heralded the arrival of Naxxramas in patch 1.11, it gave players the Haunted buff, which would cause a Scourge Haunt to follow you around. You could also throw it to other players, which would immediately trigger the /cower animation on them. In patch 6.0, it was nerfed to trigger a random 15 second haunting instead of a constant ghostly companion. Why? Weirdly enough, because the ghost was the number one source of creature spawns in the game, and it was causing server performance degradation.

That’s a powerful ghost. Let’s get to your questions!

Hi, it’s me, the Gnome you were definitely expecting to see today. Yep, no shenanigans here! Just a good time answering questions! No, no that is not an Orb of Deception in my pocket. I have no idea what you’re talking about!

Look, I know we’re all obsessed with underwater shenanigans and mechanical hi-jinks and a faction war, but I see you, you overgrown popsicle, and I know you’re up to something. I don’t know what that something is, but I’m bracing myself for it anyway. Don’t think you’re getting by unnoticed, because I’m watching you.

I’m also watching the Queue, and now I’m answering questions!

I’ll be the first to admit that when I first heard the rumors of a live-action Pokémon movie, I was a little worried.

While the bones of the Eastern Plaguelands have mostly stayed the same, the details of the Eastern Plaguelands have changed a lot.

Between Kul Tiras, Zandalar, and now Nazjatar and the sunken ruins of Zin-Azshari, this expansion feels like a love letter to the part of my brain that kept persistently asking “But what happened to x, where is it?” for all those years. I’m probably doing the PTR wrong though, because my first reaction upon arriving wasn’t “Oh look, quests!” so much as “What is that thing on the horizon” and an immediate trip to wherever that thing was, regardless of whatever happened to be in the way.

It’s okay, I’m a Rogue, I can stealth.

Let’s get to your Queue questions, shall we?

The outside world isn't the only thing that's changed since WoW was launched: dungeons like fan-favorite Scholomance have been overhauled as well.

While we wait for WoW Classic, let's take a trip down memory lane with this look back at Tirisfal Glades.

Do you ever wonder if C’Thun is sort of annoyed that N’Zoth decided to steal its whole “giant eyeball of unyielding gaze and limited mobility” shtick? I mean we had Yogg of the giant mouth, Y’Shaarj of the seven heads and numerous tentacles, and then…two giant eyeballs. Maybe that’s why Xal’atath was so unimpressed with N’Zoth in Legion.
