The Queue
The Queue: Liz, it’s Wednesday
What a week, am I right?
I am mostly playing Dragon Age right now, in which I made a choice that sent me into the darkest timeline, but it’s fine, completely okay, I am not having an emotional breakdown and I will attempt to answer your questions about Blizzard now. This is the Queue, and let’s go.
The Queue: A Short Hike
I know I talk a lot about indies as of late, but there are few games with as impeccable fall vibes as A Short Hike. It’s very cozy and not particularly long, but it’s a very soothing sort of play session. I really recommend it.

The Queue: A short Queue
Sometimes Queues are short y’know?
Not all of them, but some of them.
While I go looking for a longer Queue, it’s time for — The (Short) Queue.
The Queue: But it was just Friday last Friday
Really, weren’t we just here? Huh. I guess we’re back. Let’s Queue.
The Queue: I swear the header is related to a question.
While we’re all together, the Queue.
There is a picture of a giant flaming spider at the end of this post. This is a warning for all arachnophobes. I don’t want you to get your phobia activated.
The Queue: Not just a sword
The newest weekly quest from High Speaker Brinthe to collect 100 titan disc fragments had a very interesting revelation that I’m not going to get into because it wouldn’t be fair as many people haven’t had a chance to complete it yet. But I recommend doing so as they’re dropping some ginormous hints about what the ultimate culmination plot of the Worldsoul Saga will be.
What I particularly like is that while the gears in my head were turning they were turning in Dagran’s head too. All too often we see major NPCs hold tight to the idiot stick when there’s a lore reveal that holds major implications, but it seems at least one major character won’t be dumbfounded when this new tidbit pays off in The Last Titan.
Of course, that’s two expansions and a few years from now, but there may be a quiz in a fortnight so pay attention! While we all sharpen our #2 pencils, let’s answer some questions about the here and now!
The Queue: “Hope” is the thing with feathers
If a poem is quoted in a video game, it’s on topic, right? Subnautica: Below Zero wasn’t as in-depth or as completely nerveshattering as the original, but it did have some bright points, including the narrative. In terms of immersion (pun not intended) I really liked how the original’s story was told, but the story itself (and the subtext on the human condition and what makes us human) in BZ hit for me — though of course I appreciate the overarching subtext through the franchise that big corporations are the true predator we should be afraid of.
This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask us questions and cut us a little slack today okay bud?
The Queue: A whole age of Dragons?
In this economy?!
While I try and scrape together a hoard, it’s time for — The Queue!
The Queue: In which we are definitely probably not talking about dragons
Nope. No dragons here. Definitely not. We’re hard at work digging into the latest Warcraft patch and, uhm…
Right! The Queue!
Let’s answer some questions.
The Queue: Spooky scary skeletons live inside our meat bodies
I feel like I don’t know how to Halloween very well. Still, it kind of freaks me out to realize that I have a skeleton inside me waiting to lurch around in stop motion.
