Druids may not be getting a new legendary in World of Warcraft patch 10.2, but Druids will be getting some fantastic new shapeshift forms.

It was my birthday! My excellent, wonderful, and extremely special ladyfriend took me out to play arcade games and also to go see a local theater production of Little Shop of Horrors. So y’know it ranks up there in the top three birthdays for sure!

I never knew how different the ending of the stage version was from the movie with Rick Moranis! I gotta say though, there’s something really special about seeing a puppeted plant eat people on stage. That right here is what live theater is about I think — taking something like a man-eating alien plant that can sing and making it feel real for a minute. It didn’t hurt either that the voice actor for the plant absolutely nailed the swings from whiny hungry teenager to an alien menace.

While I keep an extra close eye on all of my plants, it’s time for — The Queue!

Blizzard's next mobile game Warcraft Rumble has been soft-launched in a few countries around the world for a little while now, and having some expert tips in your pocket might help you as you're getting started in the game. I've been lucky enough to live in Canada so I've been playing for about a month now and have learned a few things that may help you in your quest to be the best Rumble-r around when the game officially launches to all eligible Android and iOS devices November 3.

Games can sometimes affect us and mess with our emotions, in both positive and negative ways -- and among the latter, there are some moments that make us question what we're witnessing, or even doing ourselves.

Hello and happy...

BlizzCon is returning in 2023 on November 3-4 and if you were still hoping to attend BlizzCon 2023, the last round of BlizzCon ticket sales is still happening.

Join us as we discuss our hopes and fears about the future of Blizzard games now that the Microsoft/ActiBlizzard merger is a go, the new wild-west themed Showdown in the Badlands Hearthstone expansion, all the wonderfully druid-centric features in WoW’s upcoming patch 10.2, and how Diablo 4’s new Season 2 is much more engaging than the disappointing Season 1 content.

Slay the Princess is out today Monday (last minute delay due to Steam certification issues) and I am super excited. I’ve been wanting this game since it first appeared on the Steam store last year, and I didn’t even bother with the demo because the description had me sold and I didn’t want to split up my time with it. I even named it my top GOTY candidate for 2023! Now I just have to hope that I actually do enjoy the game. Although I don’t know how I wouldn’t, because this description sounds phenomenal:

You’re on a path in the woods, and at the end of that path is a cabin. And in the basement of that cabin is a Princess.

You’re here to slay her. If you don’t, it will be the end of the world.

She will do everything in her power to stop you. She’ll charm, and she’ll lie, and she’ll promise you the world, and if you let her, she’ll kill you a dozen times over. You can’t let that happen. Don’t forget, the fate of the world rests on your shoulders.

You’re not going to listen to him, are you? We’re supposed to save princesses, not slay them…

I’m not a huge horror game fan, but this level of psychological trickery is right up my alley. But since I can’t play it quite yet, why don’t we answer some questions?

We are only two weeks away from the first in-person BlizzCon since 2019, and I am getting really hyped.

Diablo 4 Season 2 is now live and players have once again been tasked with defending Sanctuary from an otherworldly threat.
