The Queue

So yeah, I’ve gotten the first stage of the Artifacts for Fury Warriors, Retribution Paladins, and Frost Death Knights so far. I won’t spoil anything if I can possibly help it, but still, spoiler warning — we’re going to likely talk a lot about the Legion alpha test in here.

This is the Queue. We talk about Blizzard games. Again, there may be spoilers for Legion, so proceed with caution if you don’t want spoilers.

If that headline piqued your interest … I’m sorry to disappoint. There isn’t much scandal or sleaze in today’s Queue. However, I’m attending the Scandal & Sleaze event at the Milwaukee Public Museum tonight and I’m stoked.

Funny true story — I had essentially finished this edition of the Queue when a glitch erased all my work.

Much pirate ghosting was heard.

So let’s try this again.

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.
