The Queue: In the bleak midwinter

As I write this it’s been well above freezing for days, and nearly all the snow has melted. I’m not fooled — it’s winter in Canada, it’s going to come roaring back and dump frozen water all over us, that’s what it does. But it’s still bizarre to be in shirtsleeves weather in January. (Yes, slightly above freezing is shirtsleeves weather in Alberta.)

Time, my friends.

Here’s the Queue. Let’s talk about Blizzard games. There may be spoilers for Legion in this one. If there are, I’ll make sure to mention them in the question/answer part so you can skip them.


The Queue: This header is Mitch’s fault

I had a funny intro all written up in my head and ready to go. All I needed was a solid Wrath of the Lich King screenshot and it would have been perfect. But instead you get this, because Mitch derailed my line of thinking by sending in this screenshot. Which we of course had to have an argument about, because this is clearly a gross invasion of that seal’s privacy.

I mean, really, that kind of behavior is just not cool. Leave the guy to enjoy a nice bubble bath in peace, wouldn’t you?


The Queue: Lizard Watch

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!

You know, my dad told me there was a lizard in our living room, but I didn’t actually see him until yesterday. We’ve dubbed him Sir Couch, Lord of the Cushions. Basically he’s just hanging out until spring because it’s way, way warmer in here than it is outside. I don’t really see a problem with this, seeing as how the little guy is probably dining on bugs that would otherwise be way more annoying than a scaly buddy just minding his own business. So I guess I have a not-a-pet now. Fun!


The Queue: Peter hears the cheese speak

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!

Sometimes I catch Peter listening to the cheese. I don’t know what the cheese has to say, and I’m still working up the courage to ask Peter about it. I know his title says that he’s a waiter, but he doesn’t seem to do a lot of waiting tables. Sometimes I find myself wondering, just where did Peter come from? Who in their right mind would say “Hey, I think I’d like to strand myself in an alternate timeline so I can wait tables for a living,” anyway? Maybe the cheese has the answers. I have answers too, but they’re just for your questions and don’t actually involve cheese, sorry.


The Queue: Under that Dun Morogh sky

Just a reminder for anyone who might be confused: even though some parts of the country are under weather advisories (including, yes, blizzard watches), our site is not about meteorology. If you are here looking for severe weather updates or road closures, please consult your local meteorologist instead.

But if you’re here for questions and answers that aren’t about the weather… well, you’re probably in the right place.
