The Queue

Nostalgia, man. It’s a heck of a drug.

It’s the Queue. You can’t go back again, but you can pretend really hard.

Liz is covering my Queue next week so I can get my eye injections, so here I am, doing hers. Remember to ask those Hearthstone questions next Tuesday!

Hello, Queuepeople! Today, your Queue will be written by Jovan, AKA me. Mitch had to go do things. Don’t worry, though, he left you in my very capable appendages normal human hands.

Okay, enough about me. It’s time to Q&A!

Honestly, it’s really freaking bright in the Badlands around Night City and there’s a lot of sandstorms, I feel like goggles would be very practical there.

I’m afraid the entirety of yesterday’s Queue is going to be about a boat, but maybe I’ll get luck and there will be some questions.

Ardenweald has no right to be this freakin pretty.

This is The Queue, where we’re just hanging out admiring the view, so we’ll answer any questions you may ask.

I’ve put about a night of attempts into the Mythic Kael’thas fight in Castle Nathria, and it’s official, he’s a jerk. We’re just trying to help the guy out and he’s busy having some internal battle for his very soul. Very inconsiderate.

Just like throwing up his super-powered Flame Shield that we have to break before he turns us into flame-broiled raiders. It’s a huge jerk move!

While I put on some burn cream, it’s time for — The Queue.

Happy Friday, everybody. Let’s Queue.

Y’know, the Overwatch MVP skins have been hit or miss for me — even before any particular controversies arose — but this Echo skin feels leagues above the rest. I hate how much I want it. (Also, yes, the joke was super easy to make and yes, it has already been made by others. I still went for it.)

Anyhow, it’s Thursday, which means it’s time for The Queue!

Let’s Queue it.

What you are looking at in the header image is an accurate recreation of what a leveling Warrior (or Paladin) would likely have been wearing by about level 67 or so during The Burning Crusade. 

Most of it is quest gear, although the weapon is a dungeon drop. And yes, it really did look that bad.

In a look behind the curtain, one thing I learned very early on making content — even as far back as actual writing school — is to never lead with a question which could be answered with a simple yes or no, because that’s all you’ll get, and you’ll have to work to get the person you’re questioning to elaborate further with follow-ups. We do this every day with our Discussion Topic. You’ll also see this in action on social media with questions that go viral. It’s never, “did you like Catcher in the Rye,” it’s always, “what was the worst book you had to read in school?” Which, by the way, it was Catcher in the Rye.

This is The Queue, where you ask us questions and we definitely aren’t jerks about answering them.

It’s more than just a rock on a stick. It’s a shiny rock on a stick! That’s where the real power comes from.

On a side note, it’s tough to build a purple and crystally themed set of leather armor in World of Warcraft. There’s plenty of purples, but very little crystal stuff out there. Kyrian’s have a set that would work, but then I’d have to go join up with them, and no way am I turning my back on my buddies in Revendreth.

While I keep searching my bags for the perfect gear, it’s time for — The Queue.
