Off Topic: Are we seeing the return of linear, closed world gaming?
I don't know if the term closed world makes any sense per se, but considering that The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim ushered in the term 'open world' and it's become synonymous with a certain kind of gameplay experience -- also known as sandbox games -- I thought I'd talk about whether or not gamers are finally ready to embrace games which don't subscribe to that philosophy.
There’s going to be a change to how eyes glow in patch 8.3
If you play a Death Knight, a Blood Elf or a Night Elf in World of Warcraft (and seemingly not a Void Elf or a Nightborne) then you're going to notice a few changes in patch 8.3, specifically to your eyes. As part of the incoming Shadowlands changes that will be made to character customization options for all characters, Blizzard is going to test out some changes to the way that certain eyes glow, and the certain ones in question appear to be DKs, Blood and Night Elves.

The Queue: I have a case of alt-itis
I’m torn. I know I’m going to level a Vulpera. I mean, if you know me even a little, you know that’s happening. However, now that Shadowlands was announced, I really want to go back through and do all that content dating back to Cataclysm, when Sylvanas may-or-may-not have first made her deal with The Jailer. The catch is, Vulpera will likely start at a higher level, and I’d really like to go through all the Silverpine quests. Also, I have to wait for them to be released, and waiting is hard.
While I wrestle with this conundrum, we have some Queuein’ to get to…in.
