Matthew Rossi

Matthew Rossi @MatthewWRossi — Matthew Rossi is a synapsid, perhaps descended from Cynognathus. He was born in Providence, Rhode Island, and grew up there before leaving to see the world and be mistaken for a sasquatch and/or minor singing celebrity in various locales. He currently lives and writes in Edmonton alongside his amazing and beautiful wife and their cats. He’s written three collections of speculative fiction, Things That Never Were, Bottled Demon and At Last, Atlantis. He loves playing warriors in World of Warcraft, barbarians in Diablo III, and he’s beginning to notice a pattern here.


Soldier 76 is NOT going to be in Fallout 76, you’ll just need to pretend

Look, I'd love to tell you that Fallout 76 was an Overwatch crossover where Soldier 76 shows up in a Vault and saves the Wasteland, but it's not happening. We're not going to see Omnics fighting Super Mutants, or find out that the Institute were behind the Omnic crisis, and we're certainly not going to see Talon agents battling Brotherhood of Steel forces. God, the fanfic writes itself.

Is Anduin really going to change the face of Warcraft? A closer look at the Before the Storm excerpt

We've seen a lot of hype over Before the Storm, the upcoming novel from Christie Golden that leads into the events of Battle for Azeroth. Now we have an official excerpt from the book, and it's an interesting bit of meta-narrative because it's a letter from Anduin Wrynn to Sylvanas Widnrunner. I'm not sure if a spoiler warning counts here -- it's an official excerpt released as a promotion for the novel -- but just in case, if you're staying away from any hints about this novel then read no further.
