Our crew of seasoned spacefarers made it safely to the planet surface, so the hard part is over...

"Which is better?" is likely the question that everyone's asking, and the answers you are going to get are going to depend on what you're looking for in a game. Inside we discuss what Blizzard might learn from Grinding Gear Games sequel; but also, what Blizzard currently does better and what the entire genre can learn from these behemoths.

This whole week has been a total mess.

We've got a major Final Fantasy title releasing onto PC this week, a new metroidvania, a surprise remake of a popular action title, and a beautiful 2D souls-like to talk about this week! The lull in new releases has come to an end, and we're back to glorious gaming bliss.

I don’t know why this week feels so weird, like it is simultaneously Thursday and Saturday, but definitely not Friday. I assume that it’s because I haven’t been correctly turning pages on my dog-a-day calendar, because how can I know what the day is unless an adorable dog provides this information from my desk? Really, it’s impossible to know, and thus I have entered a state in which time has no meaning.

But I think it may actually be Friday… so here we go, let’s Queue.

Join us with special guest and resident Diablian Liz Patt as we discuss the new Season of Witchcraft arriving in Diablo 4, now that we've had a bit of a chance to get our hands on it -- though all the rest of the Diablo fam is a bit of a seasonal mess.

Turbulent Timeways is back, and that means that leveling alts gets a supercharge until the event ends on February 24.

While we do cover a lot of different video games here at Blizzard Watch (including, you know, Blizzard games), it's not exactly a secret that several of our staff (and readers!) have gotten, to some degree, into Balatro.

I am not kidding or exaggerating when I tell you I am functioning on less than an hour a day of sleep.

So this is going to be a Queue where I’m even less coherent than I usually am. So get ready for that.

Oh, and go play Tyranny because it’s one of the best written CRPG’s in history. I’d put it up with Planescape Torment or Fallout 2 for best CRPG story.

Behind the Frame: The Finest Scenery is one of those games that kind of defies the bulleted list, because it's such a unique little gem of a game, and it's free this week on the Epic Games Store.
