Pride doesn't always go before, during, or even after a fall.

If I had to list my favorite games of the past decade, I know that Diablo 3 and World of Warcraft would be on that list, but I also know that Mass Effect 2, Dragon Age 2, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Dragon Age Inquisition and now Assassin’s Creed Odyssey would also be high on that thing. And I really wish, in all the really good multiplayer stuff that Blizzard is putting out, that there felt like there was anybody there willing to take one of those IP’s I love like Diablo or StarCraft and go nuts with a gigantic open world game that I could play whether or not my internet connection was up that moment.

I know, this is a perennial complaint with me. But still, I’d love to play a single player RPG with the polish and attention to detail of Overwatch. 

Basically I’ve been spending a lot of time in Ancient Greece lately and I’d love it if I could have that kind of experience in Sanctuary is what I’m saying. Anyway, it’s the Queue, let’s do this.

I'm very happy that Vol'jin gets more story in Battle for Azeroth even if he is dead.

The folks at Wowhead have their usual quality overview of the upcoming Jaina Proudmoore fight in Battle of Dazar'alor, and I have to say that Jaina is a complex, fascinating multi-phase fight.

Whenever I hear the term 'Black Friday' my imagination goes less to 'a really big sale' and more to 'the dread times are nigh' but apparently that's not what's going on.

Blizzard is about to put Diablo 3's Patch 2.6.4 on the PTR for a week of testing -- an unusually short amount of time for a patch to get tested on the PTR, implying a fast turnaround for it.

So it’s been a day, all told. Nothing y’all would care about, just life stuff. I woke up this morning convinced that the Cardigans wrote Linger, which is a Cranberries song.

Let’s talk Blizzard games, shall we?

Last week, we talked about the 20-year gap between Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 and how Diablo Immortal is going to live in that gap, starting five years after the destruction of the Worldstone.

It’s been a heck of a night. Toilet exploded and vomited sewage into my house. No, really. My dog was very upset with the repair guy. I’ve been up all night. It’s been real. Anyway, this is the Queue. That’s my beard. Let’s do this. No, I’m not doing the “Let’s Queue this” joke, I’m tired.

As I type this, I'm listening to Lucio's album and I gotta be honest with you -- it's not my thing, but it's not bad.
