The Queue

Just some games that released or are releasing this month:

• Ghost of Yotei
• Pokemon Legends: Z-A
• Ninja Gaiden 4
• PowerWash Simulator 2
• Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines 2
• Dispatch
• The Outer Worlds 2

Not all of these games are my style, but at least four of them are. I am currently trying to figure out a way to sell my blood or organs so I can afford them. I doubt I’ll find any, so I’m sad. But I probably should hold on to my organs, I suppose.

I feel like neighborhoods in World of Warcraft have a lot of great plots that I would love to have a house on… but some are maybe greater than others. Do you want a smuggler’s cave just below your property? It’s a feature for some, and a detriment to others.

But there’s a perfect house for everybody somewhere.

My two kids are each others’ polar opposites in everything, and it’s particularly obvious at Halloween. My son is ready for anything, an extrovert with a sunny disposition. He wants to be a train conductor for the seventh year in a row — he’s 10 — and go trick or treating. My daughter is an introvert with the temperament of a black cat, and wants to dress up as a particular specific character from a Roblox subgame, but not go trick or treating, because it’s cringe.

This is The Queue, our weekly column where you ask us questions and we give you the answers and then go out of office to see if we can find white foundation and black fingerless gloves, we guess?

It was my birthday! I’m another year older and maybe wiser… maybe. Let’s not be hasty.

It was a great weekend of fun times with my favoritest person ever. I still have another day off, and I’m going to enjoy it by *checks notes* voting in my city election and running a car-related errand? Is that right? Dang, being older is lame. At least I have cake!

While I eat another piece of my delcious peanut butter cake, it’s time for — The Queue!

We’ve done it, we’ve reached the end of the week, and can celebrate! Especially since the next time I see you all, I’ll be another year older! My birthday is this weekend, and my favoritest person in the world has some secret plans for me to celebrate it. I’ve also done the positively luxurious thing and taken a four-day weekend — I know, you can be jealous right now.

So, I’m all set for a great weekend, and I hope that you’ll all have one just as good.

While I go relax, it’s time for — The Queue!

I don’t know exactly how this happened, but it’s Thursday now, and it’s time for another Queue. How did I get here? Where did I come from? I don’t know, but let’s get to it.

It’s already been a long week you guys. Let’s get to the Queue.

This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask us the questions and we slurp our way toward the answers.

Today is Thanksgiving Day in Canada and as a result I’m swapping with Cory so he can have the celebratory poutine and maple syrup meals that I’m sure everyone in Canada consumes at special events. Hopefully while they’re gathered around the television watching hockey or Red Green Show reruns they take a moment to remember their neighbors to the south who are forced to work today.

I haven’t gotten much more progress done in Final Fantasy Tactics this past week because of ReLegion but also because it’s such an intense game and the prep work before a fight can be just as long as the fights themselves. Hopefully though I’ll be able to make some headway soon once I figure out what job to make these characters.

While I internally debate the merits of knight vs squire let’s answer some questions!

The Maw redemption chain,
forged from every oath I ever broke for gain.
Teldrassil’s ashes still whisper my name;
no rhyme can ever fix it, only years and years of pain.

Tyrande, you were right to point at me and draw that bow.
Anduin, thanks for mercy that I didn’t ever show.
“The Jailer made me do it” isn’t true — just an excuse.
But the owl has been so mean to me: it’s time for a truce!

The Maw redemption chain.
Burned a World Tree, swear I won’t do it again!

Hey Gilneas, yeah… I blighted you to goo.
I’m really sorry, Genn, I hope you’ll see it too!
I said “the Horde is NOTHING!” — that was pretty vain…
You guys mean a lot to me — so sorry for that stain!

The Maw redemption chain.
Dunno why I did those things; Arthas put worms in my brain!

Forsaken, I was once your voice and your mask.
But I’ll still come back to lead you, all you have to do is ask!
I turned our home to blight, plague-bombed the Undercity.
Let’s face it: it’s renovated, Tirisfal’s all nice and pretty.

The Maw redemption chain.
Link by link, my old soul is slain.
The Maw redemption chain.
Evil Sylvie’s gone: only the Ranger will remain!
