The Queue: Here’s where I’d put my cute holiday picture of Marshmallow …
… if I had one!
So the whole family got matching pajamas to wear for Christmas, and Marshmallow got a bandanna that also matched. He looked super-cute in it too.
And then it disappeared. We have no idea what happened to it. At some point it was no longer around his neck, and we haven’t found it anywhere. As near as we can guess it fell off while he was outside and then blew away, but that’s just a guess. I suspect it’ll turn up in four months.
While we lament the cute picture that could’ve been, let’s answer some questions!
How did you fare with your 2023 gaming resolutions?
The Queue: Holiday Road…map
The 2024 World of Warcraft development roadmap was released yesterday for Retail and for Classic and I love how forthcoming the development team has gotten in the past year with these and other updates. That said, I want to talk about something more important: the term “roadmap.”
We all pretty much know what a roadmap is, but speaking as someone of an advanced age they used to be ubiquitous and necessary just for normal everyday driving in your neighborhood. But in this era of in-car navigation and GPS applications on your phones they’re kind of a relic from a bygone time. While not completely obsolete I’m certain that the number sold annually has plummeted dramatically in the past twenty years. Pretty soon a “roadmap” will only exist as a curiosity, and like the Save File icon the term will be a reference to something that’s no longer around.
Well enough of that, let me navigate out of this intro and answer some questions!

The Queue: A Highland Song
Having finished Persona 5 Tactica I’m now playing A Highland Song which came out yesterday and it’s a really gorgeous game. The artwork and music are both perfect, and the “chasing a deer” rhythm mini-game is delightful. It’s possible I’ll get frustrated at some point trying to puzzle out the right path, but for now I’m having a lot of fun.
While I take a break from scrambling over Scottish peaks, let’s answer some questions!
