I don't know about you but for me, when I'm having a hard time figuring out a proper spooky adventure for an October D&D game, I like to have the entire party kidnapped by the Cleric's undead pirate cousin and, after fighting their way out of the hold of his terrifying demon haunted ship, make a bargain with Orcus, Demon Prince of Undeath, to dispose of two wicked artifacts that the evil doppleganger of their Wizard has been looking for.

I admit, I'm surprised I was surprised by the news that another group of ex-Blizzard employees are banding together to try to make some great games.

It’s been a long time since an Ashkandi screenshot lead the Queue, hasn’t it? Well, here’s my new Dwarf Warrior, with her Wildhammer face tattoos and a great big honking sword, in the classic World of Warcraft idiom.

This is the Queue. Let’s talk WoW and other stuff.

Covenants are the major story focus of World of Warcraft's upcoming Shaodowlands expansion.

I expect we all play a little differently, and no time showcases that more than the pre-patch to an upcoming expansion.

The typical RPG campaign is an action adventure fantasy story, but the main difference between action adventure fantasy and horror is in the relationship of the player characters to the threats they face.

If you're into World of Warcraft's Brawler's Guild, you may be upset to find that it's currently closed as we wait for Shadowlands. But please, don't panic -- this isn't the first time the Brawler's Guild has closed to wait for the next expansion, as we saw the underground arena go on hiatus during the Legion and Battle for Azeroth pre-patches, to be retooled for the next big thing to paraphrase the bouncers.

F0r me, the Shadowlands pre-patch has had quite a few surprises, and one of the biggest was how much I'm enjoying going Single-Minded Fury on my main Warrior.

The Diablo 3 PTR has been up and testing patch 2.6.10 and Season 22 for the past two weeks, but there's been a complication, and the PTR has been extended indefinitely to help find and resolve issues with higher than normal latency and some problems with people logging in to the game as well.

I honestly didn’t even realize Mitch had named yesterday’s Queue the way he did, I was just going with an in-joke for my wife. When I tell her I have to write the Queue for tomorrow she almost always goes and, forcing me to say and the R because it makes her smile and I simply cannot refuse to make her smile, ever.

Anyway, this is the Queue. I’m loving the new customization options so, so much. I am going to run around punching everything.
