The Queue

What’s the title, you ask? Well, while in the midst of a discussion about which Disney film should be made live-action, I suggested The Little Mermaid… but with Ariel having the top half of her body as a fish. That led us down a rabbit hole (fish… hole?) of different Disney movies wherein we replaced characters’ top halves with fish bodies. It’s not weird.

But anyway, while you think about which Disney film would be most entertaining with the main characters top-half fish’d — I’d like to see a bunch of Dalmatian-puppy-fish abominations, personally — let’s Queue.

Do you ever wonder if C’Thun is sort of annoyed that N’Zoth decided to steal its whole “giant eyeball of unyielding gaze and limited mobility” shtick? I mean we had Yogg of the giant mouth, Y’Shaarj of the seven heads and numerous tentacles, and then…two giant eyeballs. Maybe that’s why Xal’atath was so unimpressed with N’Zoth in Legion.

So this past week the new DLC for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey came out, the raid finder for Crucible of Storms dropped, and I finally got the final DLC for Pathfinder: Kingmaker, so there’s been a lot of games I could be playing while at the same time I have real life stuff to do. It gets kind of tense to try and carve out time to play when you feel like it means you’re not doing what you’re supposed to do. Right now I’m giving myself a little time to play Kingmaker while writing this Queue. That’s my Aasimar Paladin, who is really mostly just a Two-Handed Weapon Fighter with  one Paladin level just to be contrary. Both this game and the Odyssey DLC have made for a lot of enjoyment this week, so I’m gonna ask you guys — what have you been enjoying? What are you guys finding yourselves engrossed in?

This is the Queue. Let’s talk about stuff.

After the gotta write fast adrenaline wore off, the reality started to sink in. We have a mere six months to prepare for BlizzCon coverage! I’m honestly not sure that’s enough time — ready or not, here it comes. Get those F5 fingers ready for May 4th.

You don’t need F5 skills to read the Queue though. Let’s get to it!

And now you have! Aren’t you happy about that?

Despite being a 48-hour Splatfest, I didn’t partake in this one nearly as much as I have in the past. Mostly because it was Easter weekend and I was pretty busy. However, I will say, I am strongly disappointed in the results. Hare beating tortoise? Pffft. Nope. Never. Wouldn’t happen.

Oh well, whatever. I’m not mad.

Welcome back to The Queue, our daily Q&A feature for all of Blizzard’s games! Have a question for the Blizzard Watch staff? Leave it in the comments!

I finally finished off a replay of Final Fantasy VI over the holiday weekend, after taking my time and dinking around to kit out every character with the best gear and spells. The game still totally holds up, if any of you are interested in diving into some retro gaming! It has a great story, great music, amazing characters and an opera sequence that I firmly believe everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime. Still one of my favorite FF games ever.

I should get back to Bioshock Infinite though, and finish that one off. Maybe I’ll stream that later this week, if you guys are still interested in watching me play! But for now, let’s answer your questions, shall we?

“So who’s writing the Queue today?”

“Rossi.”

“Oh God, that guy. He’s so boring.”

This is the Queue. I am indeed boring.

As I finish writing this at around eight in the morning, I find myself utterly unable to come up with a unique or clever way to introduce the day’s column. Today, cleverness is DIY.

Today’s title comes courtesy of SPencer Morgan, who… look, just make sure he’s okay, all right? I can only keep so many eyes on him, and I need you to help. Sound good? Good.
