What’s your go-to game when you’re sick?
Welcome to the end of September, Watchers!
What makes a game’s flaws forgivable to you?
I've heard it said that no game is perfect -- even great games, nearly universally beloved ones like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom or Red Dead Redemption 2 have aspects that annoy even the most staunch apologists.
How can Blizzard improve World of Warcraft’s Harvest Festival holiday?
Dragonflight patch 10.1.7 has started bringing updates to old holidays, with Brewfest getting additional activities and even Pirate's Day adding new Dragonriding armor to purchase.
How do you feel about the Brewfest Armor drop rate?
As part of the holiday refresh in Dragonflight patch 10.1.7, there are new Dragonriding armors available to earn.
What are your favorite new additions to Brewfest this year?
It's the most wonderful time of the year in the World of Warcraft -- Brewfest!
How do you deal with waiting for an exciting game update when you already have so much to do in the current patch?
I get future envy a lot when it comes to games like World of Warcraft.
Why do games have such terrible inventory systems?
There's some kind of evil extradimensional entity that makes developers simultaneously create huge, expansive open worlds for players to explore while also including a crafting system to make things.
How do you make sure to keep your criticism constructive?
Even the games I love have things that I don't like. World of Warcraft has the interminable class balance problem that it has always had (and probably will always have) magnified by player perception that if a class isn't exactly as good at every aspect of gameplay as everyone else trying to do that aspect -- yes, I'm looking at you, tanking -- that said class is garbage and must never be brought to a dungeon or raid.
What is your favorite piece of music from a Blizzard game?
Music in video games is a subject that I absolutely love and could discuss for hours and hours -- and Blizzard games are, obviously, part of that equation as well.
If you could go to the Blizzard World theme park in real life, which Blizzard character would you want to see (or hug) the most?
Look, theme parks are neat, and it's not fair that we've been teased with Blizzard World in Overwatch for years at this point but we can't actually go there in real life.
