Despite the fact that Larian Studios is done with Baldur's Gate 3 and has stated that they have no intention of producing DLC for the game (up to the point of starting DLC, then canceling it, because it wasn't really coming from the heart), they keep dropping entire patches that -- on top of the expected bugfixes and such -- keep adding features on par with what other games would provide in (non-free!) DLC.

I've often said that collecting tabletop RPGs is a different hobby from playing them.

There's a ton of stuff in game as part of WoW's 20th Annivesary event -- rewards to buy, Timewalking to run, achievements to hunt, quests to do, and secrets to ferret out.

Among the other features that we have to look forward to in World of Warcraft's upcoming patch 11.0.7 is the return of divisive PVP-only mode Plunderstorm.

The World of Warcraft's patch 11.0.5, and its centerpiece 20th anniversary event, are both now live, bringing with them a plethora of activities to do -- as well as the all-important sweet, sweet cosmetic loot.

The fall weather here in the Northern Hemisphere is the perfect time to hang out inside around a table with your friends, your collection of dice, and your favorite tabletop RPGs.

Once you're done marveling at all the verticality in Nerub-ar Palace, The War Within's first raid, you might be left to wonder: how am I actually going to beat all these bosses?

Mysterious lights in the night sky, dark hooded figures with unknowable powers, announcements from the Sheriff's secret police, and local news and weather -- are these the things you're looking for in your tabletop RPG?

You've completed your quest to make it to another Friday, Watchers!

Raiding in Nerub-ar Palace is in full swing at all levels of play in The War Within, from the Race to World First to LFR, but one difficulty is new: Story Mode, which allows anyone to enter a solo version of the Queen Ansurek fight with a party of NPC allies and see an abbreviated version of the encounter.
