I mean, I did in fact forget it was Thursday, but I’m capable of lying, so I could tell you I didn’t forget.

I did, though. I may or may not have gotten to the point where I’m modding Starfield with Power Armor from Fallout, while also modding Fallout with Starfield themed robots. I know, I could just get the Captain Cosmos PA from the Creation Club, but that costs money and I don’t have any of that.

Yes, I am still that one guy you know who really likes Starfield and wish other people had given it a chance. I was that guy for Diablo 3 and nowadays everyone thinks that game was a masterpiece, so I figure I’ll just try and wait it out. Besides, I’m likely going back to WoW next week anyway.

This week's free game offerings from the Epic Games Store includes a sequel to last week's freebie, and a retro feeling side scroller.

Welcome to the Lost City, explorer!

WoW patch 11.2, Ghosts of K'aresh, will arrive soon -- August 5, in fact!

WoW patch 11.2 arrives on August 5, sending us off to the ruined world of K'aresh — which we just got a fresh lore dump on in a new short story about Locus-Walker — and eventually into Manaforge Omega to confront Dimensius.

I don’t think they would let mounts stabled at the Trading Post eat customers, but I am wondering about this fel boar, who is ten times my size and has very hungry eyes. Fel isn’t usually my aesthetic, but you know, maybe this boar and I could be friends. Or enemies. Frenemies? Well, we’ll talk about the moral quandary of our mount collection in a minute. Let’s Queue.

Two listener questions form bookends to an overarching concept this week on the Lore Watch Podcast.

The Ethereals (and their erstwhile cousins the Brokers) have a huge role to play in WoW patch 11.2 -- which makes sense, since we're off to their broken homeworld of K'aresh to save what's left of it (plus, you know, the known universe) from the Void Lord Dimensius.

There's a hidden Tortollan city deep in the Un'Goro Crater, and Hearthstone's latest expansion, The Lost City of Un’Goro, is taking us there.

If you're a transmog fiend, it's okay, you're among friends here -- there's no shame in wanting pretty outfits.
