Do certain races just not look right as certain classes?

This is just one of those things that's always bugged me -- why are two handed weapons so small on Blood Elves, especially Blood Elf women?

Hiraeth is a hard word to define, and I’m not a native Welsh speaker by any stretch, so it’s just a thing I feel from time to time. It’s similar to saudade, the Portuguese word — both are often described as a kind of melancholic longing for something one loves that is in some way gone or unattainable, be it through death, having lost contact with it, or perhaps through realizing that it never was in the first place.

It’s February and March is fast approaching, and I’m reminded of Thomas Wolfe. “O lost, and by the wind grieved, ghost, come back again.” But of course it can’t, and so it won’t — the past is the only place it exists. All we can do is remember.

Yeah, I’m feeling cheerful tonight. This is the Queue. Let’s talk about Blizzard games.

“You’re perfect yes, it’s true/ But without me, you’re only you.”

Oh, and there may be spoilers for Legion in this Queue. Fair warning.

I'm in full fledged 'Avoid Spoilers' mode, so I'll just say this -- today, while leveling in the Legion alpha, the game objectively surprised me by not only not killing a character, not only giving her (yes, a her) a redemption arc of sorts, but showing me what that character's face looks like for the first time since Warcraft 3.

The demigod Cenarius is the son of Malorne and Elune.

Actually, as I write this, it’s quarter past four in Edmonton.

This is the Queue. I’m Matthew Rossi, your host. I’m listening to How Will I Laugh Tomorrow by Suicidal Tendencies. Basically my anthem for a solid ten years there. Let’s get some questions answered and some answers questioned.

If you play Hearthstone, then you probably will be excited to learn that this month's Ranked Play Season is now live.

If you're actually from Azeroth or Draenor, you may not know that Warcraft: The Beginning, a movie based in the Warcraft setting and universe, will be debuting June 10 in North America.
