It’s fitting that yesterday’s Queue was called “Kitty” because I’ve been cat-sitting this week and I’m writing this early in the morning as a result of a kitty waking me up every hour since 4 a.m. He’s a very good cat so I don’t hold it against him, but oof. I’m tired. And I have so much to do today.

Let’s delay responsibility for a bit with a Queue, shall we?

My 2021 journey through the Soulsborne series is inching closer to its completion. The other day, I beat the final (non-DLC) boss of Dark Souls 2, which leaves just the DLC and then Dark Souls 3 and Sekiro left on my list of “to finish” Soulsborne games. For the unfamiliar, the games typically have a “choose your own ending” element to them — not surprisingly, I favor the endings that lead the world into an age of Dark.

Anyhow, I’ll talk more about my Soulsborne obsessions tomorrow — for today, we Queue.

I think the title says it all here. It’s been a long week, and it’s likely to get longer. I hope y’all are staying healthy (physically and emotionally).

For now, let’s distract ourselves with a Queue, shall we?

I realize there’s a whole h*ckin’ lot of stuff happening in the WoWverse right now, but also… It’s my favorite time of the year! Summer Games Done Quick is currently underway, and while we’re a little over halfway through, there’s still plenty on deck to love. Tomorrow and Saturday in particular have some top picks like Fire Emblem Three Houses, Breath of the Wild, and Mario 64 — but I’d suggest checking out the entire schedule for your personal favorites and tuning in. Even if you’ve never seen a speedrun, I bet you’ll have a good time (and you’ll be supporting a good cause!)

Anyhow, I could talk about GDQ forever. But this is The Queue, and it’s time to Queue things.

(As a note: The first two questions talk around the latest cinematic. Nothing is explicitly spoiled, but please do be careful if you’d like to go into the raid 100% blind!)

How we all doing today? We’re close to patch day now and… well, I’ve been away from WoW for a minute, so I’m hopeful it draws me back in. In the meantime, Dark Souls and Overwatch have been keeping me pretty entertained.

But enough about that. This is The Queue.

Anyone else feel like this week has been twice as long as normal? Thankfully, it’s almost the weekend. Almost.

Today, though, we Queue.
