The Queue: Happy 2019th birthday, America!
Look, this isn’t the first time I’ve written The Queue on the 4th of July, and it may not be the last. If you keep letting me make this stupid joke, I’m going to keep making this stupid joke. Anyhow, I hope all you ‘Meruhcans are enjoying your day.
You know what goes well with fireworks and beer? The Queue.

Halfway through 2019, how are your gaming resolutions coming along?

How would you make a major faction change work in WoW without breaking the leveling experience?

My Final Fantasy XIV FC hosted a costume contest, and it felt like I was watching a real-life cosplay competition
It was only a couple months ago that I started playing Final Fantasy XIV. As a longtime World of Warcraft player, it's hard not to compare the two games all the time, even if just subconsciously. While both games certainly share a host of features, they vary in even more. Most notably -- for me, anyhow -- Final Fantasy XIV's wealth of in-game looks and customization options never seems to stop surprising.
Case in point: My Free Company (FC) -- basically the FFXIV equivalent of a guild -- hosted a costume contest this past Wednesday, and oh. my. Yogg. I expected some clever outfits. I did not expect Anna and Elsa, Sailor Saturn, Soldier: 76, Link, or Mickey Mouse (just to name a few) to show up. Nor did I expect them to show up looking as similar to their original counterparts as they did. The whole thing felt like I was watching an actual real-life cosplay competition unfold, and the experience was frankly too much fun not to share.
