The Queue: You should play this game

Did you ever recommend a game a whole lot to (almost) literally everyone, and then they immediately turn around and recommend a different game to you, but you’re already busy playing the game you keep telling (almost) literally everyone to play that you really don’t want to play their game? And yes, even the standalone content, like the soundtrack, is superb to the extent it gives you frisson chills, and gives you a real sense of the game to boot? And then everyone else is like, “but Bugsnax is so fun!” and you’re just real tired all of a sudden?

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions, and you should definitely play The Long Dark, and then maybe we’ll answer.


The Queue: So you wanna be a healer…

It’s not as glamorous as it sounds.

It’s actually more glamorous.

It’s a role that’s never dull, that requires constant focus, and if anyone annoys you, you can just let them die and run back without a rez. Or for those “blame the healer” parties, you can quit and let them spend another twenty minutes in the queue to get a replacement, reveling in your small, bitter victory over your critics.

Really, healing is a win all around.


The Queue: Ruined

Happy Thursday, folks! Right about the time I started writing this, news broke that ABK workers are going on strike. And with The Game Awards tonight, I’m sure it’s going to be quite the day.

For now, though, we’re here to Queue.


The Queue: Happy Birthday!

Today is our very own Matt Rossi’s birthday, so make sure to leave them the gift of some softball questions for tomorrow’s queue. Preferably some about dinosaurs. You know how they like those.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and we’ll answer while eating a slice of cake.
