Even though the only thing currently open on the alpha is the Demon Hunter leveling experience, it’s not what I’d call boring at all. The team over there has really outdone themselves as far as zone design, and given all the little details just in that one little slice of the Legion experience, I can’t wait to see what the Broken Isles look like — and what kind of visual updates Dalaran got. I loved Dalaran in Wrath, I thought it was an amazing capital city and I’m really excited that we’ll be going back there again. I just hope Jones is still around. I miss that fuzzy little guy.

Okay so on the one hand, I’m kind of terrified at the sheer size of the infernals on Mardum. I mean I think these things give Deathwing a run for their money, size-wise. On the other, they’re almost kind of…cute? Basically what I’m trying to say here is if Warlocks get to summon these things in Legion, I may just have to re-think my class of choice. Let’s answer some questions, shall we?

I have now perfected my Draenei transmog by matching it with a perfect mount. Yes, this is actually important to me. Yes, I will actually match my mounts to my transmog. Yes, I know I have a problem. Luckily, the Wardrobe will solve it.

Let’s talk about things, Blizzard and its games, stuff like that. Yesterday was Thanksgiving, so I’m going to be more open to off topic questions and answers than I usually would be.

This header image, as with all of our very best header images, comes from the magnificent Mike Eng (Rades) and is in answer to a question asked by Heffenreffer:

QftQ – are you making the Canadians do all the articles tomorrow? you know cause…. American Thanksgiving

We in fact had a discussion about this earlier in the week, in which Rades and Matticus (two of our Canadian contingent) discussed taking over the site while the Americans were away and covering it with Canadian flags. Matt stipulated that the flag had to contain a no Pepe sign instead of a maple leaf and… let’s just say things went downhill from there, resulting in the image above.

However, to answer the question, both Americans and Canadians contributed to the site today, though I’ll probably be cooking by the time you read this. That out of the way, let’s move on to our daily Q&A.

So yeah, the Alpha dropped, and yeah, I’m in it, and yeah, so far it’s just me running around on a Demon Hunter because I can’t import my main and character creation is disable for all classes but Demon Hunters. I ran one character through all the available test content last night (remarkably less buggy than you might expect for an Alpha) and I have to say, I enjoyed the evil bats.

I mean, come on, look at that thing. It’s evil.

This is the Queue. Let’s talk about Blizzard games. There may be some spoilers for Legion here. I’m trying to avoid any lore/story related ones, but they may slip through. In fact, today’s Queue will be more talking about being spoiled than actual spoilers, since that’s what y’all talked about.

It’s Monday again, which means today’s Queue might be a short’un.

I miss the Crowleys. When last we saw either of them, Darius had just agreed to surrender Gilneas City in exchange for his daughter Lorna’s safety, and got the heck out of there before waiting to see what Sylvanas would do next. Since then, we haven’t heard a peep from either one of them. Given that Genn is listed on the Legion cast page, I’m kind of hoping we’ll see both Darius and Lorna make a reappearance — I think Lorna would make an excellent Outlaw. I mean come on, she’s the daughter of a rebel leader and we already know she’s handy with a shotgun, I bet she’s a crack shot with a pistol. And I’m interested in whether or not she demanded she be affected with the Worgen curse just to avoid that whole being risen as Forsaken thing, whether her father continued to try and keep her out of harm’s way, or what exactly happened to them both.

I can’t seem to escape Sylvanas, the Forsaken, Bolvar or the Scourge lately — they all keep popping up in various conversations with various people. And for some reason we ended up with a couple of Scourge-related questions yesterday on top of it all! But hey, it’s fascinating lore, so I’m not going to object to all the chatter, weird coincidence or no. Let’s answer some questions, shall we?
