On the Tavern Watch Podcast, a mention of a crowdfunding campaign for Lodestar leads us to discussing areas where the community has picked up for Wizards of the Coast's slack on the Tavern Watch Podcast.

Here at Blizzard Watch, the staff has been abuzz about Midnight ever since it was announced, but this week we're a little more abuzz because the beta test was just announced — and that brings us one step closer to launch.

Player Housing is a long-desired feature in World of Warcraft, and there was certainly some unhappiness when the Blizzard team announced that the feature required would require you to own Midnight to try it out.

It's Halloween, so that means it's both the peak and the end of Spooky Season, so today I'm going to highlight a couple neat spooky games that are currently on sale and worth your time.

More powerful than a post-walk treat! Can leap on to tall beds with assistance — it’s Marshmallow! If you can’t tell his Halloween costume this year is Krypto, the hero of this summer’s Superman film! … he’s not fond of costumes, hence the dour expression. Still, he looks awesome! And would totally attack Lex if needed.

While we ensure there is no kryptonite squirreled away in our house and steal candy out of the bowl by the front door, let’s answer some questions!

If you thought we were going to talk about something other than changes coming to WoW in Midnight this week, you must be new, so hi, welcome to the podcast.

In November, a bounty of new items will arrive at the World of Warcraft Trading Post for players to gobble up in Stormwind, Orgrimmar, or Dornogal.

Sometimes I get smug because I don’t have a ton of unplayed games on Steam, because I can be thoughtlessly hypocritical. So now I’m suffering for my thoughtlessness, as GOG had a big sale on games which meant that I could pick up Neverwinter Nights and a ton of DLC for it for under $10 Canadian.

Did I need to buy it? No. I’m not even playing it — The Outer Worlds 2 is out on Game Pass, and I have to justify that $30 price tag. But getting the entire Enhanced Edition for ten bucks? Even though I’ve got like 37 games I don’t play and in fact don’t even have installed, it felt impossible to pass it up.

Yeah, I know. I’m a sucker.

Epic Games Store is giving away two fan favorite horror video games with retro styling for free, to celebrate Halloween.

When Midnight launches, players will be able to participate in a lineup of brand new World Activities -- but which ones will be at the top of you weekly to-do list for the entire expansion, and which will you completely ignore each weekly reset?
