The Diablo 2 Resurrected team is making big changes to class balance
It's pretty rare for a game to get a balance change twenty-two years after its release, but that appears to be what's about to happen when Diablo 2: Resurrected gets a balance pass in patch 2.4, likely coming out sometime early next year in 2022.
What’s the easiest way to introduce someone to gaming?
If you're the gamer in your friend group or family, you often get asked about the various games you play, be they video games, tabletop RPGs, board games -- I have lost track of the amount of times I've been asked to explain Catan to people -- and you're put in the position of serving as a sort of unofficial ambassador for the hobbies you participate in and enjoy.
Just who is Pelagos, and what role will he play in patch 9.2?
You may not really have paid a lot of attention to Pelagos when you first arrived in Bastion.

The Queue: The sun hat is essential
Kassandra wouldn’t be caught dead going on vacation without it.
Y’all, the new Odyssey DLC is wild. It really puts a spotlight on Kassandra’s role in the greater lore of the franchise and gives me hope that they might eventually reveal she’s not as dead as we think she is. But even if they don’t, it’s still a really cool little DLC. I’ll be trying the Valhalla one next, will report on that next chance I get.
It’s the Queue. I am so very tired. It’s -29 C outside my house today and it’s gonna get colder all week.
What kinds of games are your kryptonite?
Big open world RPGs could be used to defeat me if I ever became a threat to all life.
The Mage Tower and all of Legion Timewalking will be open two extra weeks, through January 4
If you're working on the Mage Tower in Shadowlands and you've been eyeing the clock, worried you won't get it done before Legion Timewalking ends, you just got a good deal more time.
